By the time this is published a vote in the Senate may h .near. "However, developments are coming rapid that tte subject must be - Mt e 4he -daily press and the radio ' whfch r aire-keeping the public in- jeuned on the more signifkent . trends. This -opens the way for - timely -mention at a subject of un - WHtl -interest to those unfamiliar -with -the daily movements of their . aeeabers of Congress. In other woids, the Senatorial Day. ' Hie Senator's day begins at vary "iag ihours. I have seen members of the Senate headed for their offices as ariy as six in the morning. I have had visitors knocking on my own. door as early as seven. But by nine o'clock from ten to twenty peo de re usually awaiting interviews, dtd the number increases up to noon. Some have appointments and others await their turn. The majority are hepef ul of assistance in securing jobs Vt& all feel that their demands can W met. To these daily interviews ja added anywhere from one to seve 41 hundred letters, post cards, and circulars, the majority requiring im mediate attention. As attention is iven to visitors and mail, telephone Us add to time required. Many people believe that the pur pose of Congress convening at noon W to allow members to have the warning free. Such is not the case. The average member of Congress is a several committees. These com "Tmrttees meet dunng the morning araur. It is the time when hearings are held on important legislation and 'when committee members confer on reports to be made to their res pec 'See bodies, Senate or House, as the case may be. And the Congress Inactions by committees, the pres- tiga of an individual member being largely based on his rank on com aaittees. The new member begins, -always, at the bottom on a commit tee liBt and moves upward over a Untied of years to the coveted chair manships. Senators, and Representatives as wall, unless they have some import--aat or pressing appointment in alr offices, go direct from com mittee rooms to the floor of the Se Mte or House. All endeavor to be . present for the roll call. -Shortly after twelve, Congressional ,' pages "begin the daily trek from re- .. eption rooms to the wells of the Se nate and House, with calls for mem- . Iters. Constituents and even strang ers want time for interviews. Unless business on the' floor is of ex treme importance, the interviews are 'granted. They result in every con- eiveable request. Some are merely friendly rails. h?n free fror.i duties in the com- ' trnttee room or on the floor of office, ' the member must make departmental calls. Advice is sought on pending "Federal appointments, contracts of '-.nterest to the Congressional mem- Vier's state, and perhaps some parti cular phase of Government activity m which the member is interested And while attending to these mis sions, the member must be in con- '4tant communication with his office with regard to telegrams and tele prswie calls. Not the least of the tjrna-taking demands, is the necessity Iter short chats with numerous per- smvm encountered by a member of ' Congress when away from his office. Upoii completion of the daily ses sion, then comes the time for read ing and signing' mail, answering 'telegrams dictation to stenographers always interrupted by telephone vails and visits sometimes running "Into darkness. , Additional telephone calls and tele-!

Lightning- Plays Havoc At Winf ail Lightnintr struck the residence of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Stanton, at Win fall, on Saturday afternoon during the severe storm which severed the 500-foot cable beneath Perquimans River which serves electric current to the Town of Winfail, when an old barn on the Stanton place was also struck and burned down, and it was reported several small houses occup ied by colored tenants in Winfail were also struck. There were no fatalities, though the occupants of the Stanton home were said to have been badly fright ened. A report that one person was stunned by the bolt which struck the house could not be verified. Considerable damage was done to the house but no fire resulted. In the barn which was burned there -was stored a quantity, three or four tons of hay. As a result of the damage to the cable, the- Town of Winfail was for several hours without current. R. N. Hines relieved the situation by con structing an emergency line to tap directly the line of . the Virginia Electric ft Power Company at Win fall. The storm was also pretty severe in Hertford, with considerable rain but no damage was done here, y: .vv, ,. r lotm.Yovn -.IIAItt ISA' FRfGfJTfffEftE, V$lYFOt.-OU Wives, mot hers, titters they're often forced to point rha woy to hair health to theif men folk! for women ' know that a healthy head product , handtomo hatrl And : that's why everywhere are'pointjng to Fom-oC the remarkable foaming oO ' strompoo ' which firsf nourithes the tcoip, then takes the dull, parched - hair and brmgs t back to. alowino : Health, fom-al is to tconomlcali a ' firHa'croe 'a long way.7 Atk 'your drupglst for tho regulorVSte tlx.

' ' ' ' Some Judges of amateur snapshot contests aver that Scarcely one per son In a couple of .thousand submits pictures of genuine pictorial quality or having the saving appeal of story telling human Interest Others say that often most ot the pictures are so good in these respects that they have difficulty In making decisions, , Perhaps the verdict depends as much upon who the Judges are as upon what the pictures are. All of them concede that from the stand point of photographic, quality cor rect exposure and proper focus the average of amateur photographs Is high. la that sense there Is ao doubt that thousands of amateurs take good pictures but with respect to evoking general appeal, it must be admitted that not all give evidence of attention to artistic composition, thought in the choice ot subject, or care for the right moment to snap the shutter. The result Is pictures that are commonplace In their appeal to others. Usually such pictures are personal to the picture taker, such as a close-up of a beloved infant with no qualities to distinguish it from snapshots ot a thousand other babies.. --'V.
