Carl Thompson is to build t big busi ness building. Whats next? It’s been a long time since snow birds heralded the con ine of spring for Piedmont Carolina. We wonder what thi atheist organizations do to keep a fVl iow from falling ash on in the pews ? North Carolina athletes 'ire refusing to enter the proles j sional game because they can, make more money in real estate.! Our weekly survey of the real estate ouestion in North Caro lina: Lots of lots sell, and lots of loir don't.

Now will some! eh lining expert tell us how many of the remaining 299 should keep the lone sheep company. Our vote in the “Mr. America" pun contest goes to the Tampa' Tribune on the following: “Wo men who went in bathing used to dress like Mother Hubbard. New they dress I ke Mother Hubbard’s cupboard.” Proof that the teal estate T pom has moved from Fh" id to North Carolina: More folks were killed bv auto accidents here last week. Realty dr.nVrs probably had a he ul-o i mission carrying prospects out to the de velopments and hark.

THE PAPERS SAY— We see by the pap is, as R. R (Mark says and as ,Joi* Caldwell was went to say. that the Choi rvville butcher wilt solve some thing like 1.5 vears in prison for killing a chief of police wound ing another citizen and ‘"shoot irr up” a town. We see also that the So-.th Carolina boys who shot a moon shiner down at his front door in our own South Mountains will serve sentences ranging from two to to years. On the other hand we note that another bootlegger from tl.e same South Mountains just fov concocting and selling moon shine will serve 12 months in prison. Read the above, add a pistol and divide by a “nuart. of corn”, and what do you have? Perhaps the answer will lx* something that will add respect to the law in the South Moun tains, and perchance not. THE WOMAN TO PAY. In these flays of so many new develonmeuts we have almost ceased to be surprised at any thing, yet it is a little startling to read that a wife has been awarded $2 )0,000 from a woman for alienating her husband’s af fections. Our legal code has be. n built up on the assumption that women are more in need of sne fifij provision and nrotcct ion than men, and, though modern feminists snurn all this and de mand abolition of such ir.sulti. g (ksnimination, there are stilt ;)!(]--fashioned conservatives who be i ve that our original theory was well based. Hut now, it would appear, the courts are tending tovvaid the feminist view -that a woman should be laid responsible in every par ticular equally with a man, she :d-u being liable to offend and i ie’f-; fully as able to take care o! lrersclf as he is to look after his own interests. At any rate the Supreme couit of New York has ruled that a vvrniau must pay the bill this lie Instead of divorce and heavy alimony naid by the man, as usual, Miss Corliss Palmer, set eon "ct n •, must pay l ii l to Mrs. Brewster for captu - lug and carrying off Mug: ne V. Hrewster, “wealthy Now Yo ) magazine publisher.” The do cj-ion implies that a man may bo weak and nr’sled and that a woman tnav be the resolute pev p« t'-ator of the mischief. It is i ath r a startling reversal of the curroit ideas of former times, bi:t it is possible tittd these ideas Wfi'e rut always strictlv correct or w holly equitable. At all Events w live in u new ace .with new developments-out of harmony with eld customs liable at any lime. As regards this particular ease our feminists, at least, ought to bo satisfied—and pre sumably Miss Palmer is veil able to pav the bill for her fam ily-disrupting amusements. A VISION IN SHELBY.
