IN WASHINGTON ■ WHAT IS TAKING PLACE BY UNITED STATES SENATOR Editor's note Senator Reynold's column for this week, is written as he is en route to Washington from a visit to Western states, and deads with some of the im pressions he has gained. Any swing through the country will quickly convince an individ ual that North Carolina selected the psychological time to spread its program for recreational de velopment and attracting new in dustries. The state is much in the eyes of people throughout the country. The progressive way in which it came through the depres sion has attracted national at tention. It explains why the state is already reaping benefits Expert Repairing Watches, C3od», Jewelry We New Hare Equipment to Make Any Kind of Duplicate Keys. W. M. Wall, Jeweler Phone 56 BHrfn, N.

Perhaps the thing that im pressed me most, when numerous invitations were pressed upon me to make addresses, was that those interested wanted to hear about North Carolina. What are labor conditions? How are the roads? Do the Great Smokies compare with the Western National Parks? These and 'many other questions were asked on every hand. There are. of course, many rea sons for this interest. Great num bers of Tar Heels have migrated westward over a long period of years and retain an interest in their home state and tell others about it. Equally as important, as one of the first states to adequate ly develop a highway system. North Carolina won attention that has not been overlooked with the passing years. Moreover, the word has spread that through diversified agricul ture, commerce and industry, North Carolina has not felt the effects of the depression as keen ly as some other states. This view has been enhanced by the fact that Tar Heels, as a rule, spread confidence wherever they go and implant a desire on the part of others to see the state. The result will be that the pro gram to attract visitors and new residents to the state is destined to prove the greatest step forward North Carolina has taken in re cent years. I believed this when I left Washington for a survey of conditions and a combined vaca tion. I am more than ever con vinced of it as I head toward Washington for the special ses sion of Congress. There is no doubt that people generally realize that important national adjustments in the eco nomic field must continue. How ever, they want the confidence of business to be kept up through as surances to the business man as to what he may expect in the way of regulation and taxes. To delay this assurance will undoubt edly be more harmful than to give it as quickly as possible. Farmers are conscious that surpluses are controlled by weather as much as by what the farmer does, and only want reasonable help from their Government. But like the business man, they want to know what is going to be done. Again early ac tion will be more helpful than delayed action. As a result of such thoughts re flected by hundreds in conversa- "V V. '• • • ■ ■: THE ELKIN TRIBUNE. ELRIN.

The school has been in operation several months. tlons, and in the faces of thou sands in "public forms" on im portant questions, the legislators who have attempted to reach the people and obtain their views dur ing the time since adjournment of Congress, are best prepared to meet the demands of the day.

ROSSLYN EARP Director, New Mexico Bureau of Public Health WHY BABY CRIES There Is the mother who wor ries too often. There Is also the mother who too seldom responds. It is not always kind to "let the baby cry." It is part of a mother's job to learn why the baby cries. The cries that are best left alone are those which demand attention and those which express indigna tion when the royal whim has been disregarded. The latter may be very obstreperous and may be accompanied by breath holding which makes the baby go black in the face. Do not worry, moth er, this is probably the last card in his pack of tricks. But you should worry if he cries because he is hungry. Did you weigh him before and after his meal? Are you observing the growth curve of his weight? If it is summer he may be thirsty. He will need his drinks of water be tween meals just as you do. If he is very small he is unable to change his position; it is your job to turn him over when he com plains. Has he Just been fed? Very likely he has swallowed a lot of j air and is very uncomfortable. Hold him upright and pat him gently on the back. The indiges tion from which we suffered in infancy is now called either "food allergy" or "improper formula." Crying from either of these caus es is intermittent. If it is food allergy you must try to find out which foods are at fault. Look out for milk, eggs, wheat and spinach. Never neglect the frantic scream of pain. Even a few hours delay may endanger the baby's life. Baby cannot tell you that it is his ear which hurts, but your doctor has ways of find ing out and he alone can tell you what must be done. MELANCHOLY "Thou wouldst be joyous, would st thou?", says Borrow, "Then be a fool." It is quite probable that a ten dency to mental depression Is in herited and that if we should ever succeed in breeding melancholy out of the human race we should also have bred out all of our most sensitive and brilliant minds. On the other hand, If the eugen ists remove the feeble minded they will have taken from our midst the only group over which mel ancholy holds no sway. Attacks of melancholy come and go, often without any discern ible cause. Physicians learn to ac cept with reservations the grati tude of their depressed patients knowing fully well that the com plaint is likely to recur. They know too tfiat a fresh attack of -v •'(Jr/'rri ,T - . ,j - . - ' ifr depression may be brought on by being In love or on the stock ex change. Malaria and lnfleunza are most to be feared among Infec tions. The strain of childbirth la another not uncommon cause. In such cases the doctor may help by hastening convalescence or by prescribing treatment to lessen starin and shock. What of melancholy that comes and goes abruptly without ap parent cause? In such cases the patient can get more help from within than from Without. Ex perience teaches that the cloud will pass. Let him hold on to hope and so to courage. Let him avoid self pity that most subtle and dangerous enemy of moral self control. As a steady policy both in depression and in health let him cultivate Interests outside of him self. A life of wide and varied in terests is in the end his surest line of defense.
