WIVES OF CONCORD: What do people think of your husbands’ appearance? Is it
your neglect if he does not have a refreshed suit each week? Most men dcpened upon their
wives to attend to the upkeep of their wardrobe. If your husband was called out of town
today, would he have a refreshed suit to put on? Send him away looking his best at all times
by keeping a refreshed suit always ready. Our weekly service-call is the answer to this
home schedule.

‘•Negro education in North Carolina,”
said State Superintendent A. T. Allen,
“has been greatly stimulated within the
last five years. The division of negro
! education in the State department has
| been able to give this expansion wise
j direction and greatly to encourage our
I negro population. It has also been in
| struinental in bringing about a more
| amicable relation bptween the races and
in restoring t'.ie confidence of each race
in the good intentions of the other.”
“Last year,” said Director Newbold,
“seven negro schools received SSOO each.
The increase of aid received from this
source shows something of how our high
developed as prospects in one
yea r.
"The Wilkes County Training School
has made most satisfactory gains in one
year. A course in negro history was
offered last year.
“The following negro educational in
stitutions issued ‘annuals' at the last
commencement: West Street High
School, New Bern; Rennet College High
School, Graensboro: Columbia Heights
High School, Winston-Salem; State
Normal, Elizabeth City; Warren County
‘ Training Schools, Wise; Mary Potter
School, Oxford: Henderson Institute,
Tenderson; Johnston County Traiing
School, Smithfield; Shaw University,
Raleigh.
“Numerous high schools have begun
the publication of papers.”
Many valuable products come from

cover an estimated area of 320,000

panes a lot es laws k's im
- * possible to understand. They
can be read In two or more differ
ent ways.
Or they contain conflicting
Clauses or conflict with other laws.
Or nobody’s able to figure out
just what they do mean.
;» What would seem to be the nu
tural thing to do when one of
these mixed up laws gets onto
the statute books? Why, to ask
Congress about it, of course.
I* Congress passed it. If anybody
knows what Congress' idea was in
dbing it, it certainly must be Con- '
gress itself.
*So why, when the executive
branch of the government runs
up against one of these incompre
hensibly-worded enactments, does
n't go to ths. legislative branch and
say, "This thing doesn't make
sense—what In heck were you try

explained, or fixed.

Bobby: "I was thinking of her all the

Warden: "Say! What were you be

Prisoner 1800: “A telephone operator,

The waiter was taking the order of

a florid podgy, middle-aged man.
“And how about the lobster?” the

2. Now a judicial decision on to
question of constitutionality is
one thing. If Congress attempts
something the fundamental code
forbids, then doubtless it’s some
court’s business to point out that
it can't be done
But interpreting and guessing
laws into shape is different—it
amounts to making them.
' The judges do their interpreting
with such straight faces—their
faith in their own infallibility is
so well-grounded—that the by
stander. watching them at it. isn’t
art to realize how ridiculous it is.
How do they know what meaning
lessness means, any better than
anybody else!
* The executive officials, however,
don't all take their guessing quite
so seriously.
° "The fact is,” a high function
ary of the So-and-so Bureau told
me recently, "We never've been
able to dope out how Congress in
tended the Such-and-such Act to
work, but we've agreed on what
we thought perhaps it meant nnd
that's the way we enforce the
law."
People go to jail _ and pay big
fines op the strength of it, too.
\' Dangerous Combination.
Charlotte Observer.
The combination of unlighted wagon
and glaring headlight caused a mix-up
on the Coneord-Mt.Pleasant roud which
hats' provoked a letter to Governor .de
l-can. It is all the better that the let
ter should take this form because it
emphasizes a condition common on the
Xortlr Carolina highways, as it .. em
phasizes the blunder of the Legislature
in killing the law Which wfmld have re
quired wagons, nnd all other vehicles
using the State highways to tarry
lights at night. As n matter of course,
Governor Mcl-can is not responsible for
conditions of (he kind, but the motion
of the victim in gaining the greater pub
licity for his complaint is not a bad one.
The glaring headlight obtains in spire of
law and common sense. Careful drivers
jby night may dim their lights peisist
ently, only to have response by an oc
casional driver. The dazzling mid blind
ing headlight is especially dang<roue
when encountered while an unlighted
wagon is involved in the situation, or
when a pedestrian is walking alongside
the road under shadow of the light. The
affair on the highway in Cabarrus is
duplicated in some part of the State al
most every night. ■
The people who drive unlighted
wagons do so at their own risk; it would
not be so bad if possible consequences
stopped there. The greater danger is to
other ppople. A mighty fipe citizen of
, Charlotte was slain on the Davidson
I highway several months ago by a pro
ject bit of timber from an unlighted
j wagon. -It is the unfortunate privilege
of drivers of wagons to use the liigh-
I ways without lights at nfght; it would
jnot have been so if the good sense of the
j legis’ators had prevailed at the moment
when the bill was on the eve of pas age.
j It is well that incidents indicating
j the dangers of the unlighted wagon may
have record in the newspapers. that they
may have even the more impressive
form of publicity through the Governor,
that the next Legislature may be
1 bolstered in courage to enact a law the
need of which is becoming more and
more apparent.
