What People Say
and Some Side Remarks

Pat Withrow, noted miaHion worker
OF Charleston. who esd llshed the
rescue missioa at ClarkS6GFg March 1.
which had its formal opening this
week. lent some spice to the occasion
by his eEtemporaneous remarks.
There was to be limit to the,lehgth
Of time given each speaker as the pro-
gram was long. He remarked:
Il think this is possible as I
see there are only q few ladies
down for talks.
He told of the seventy kids at the
Charleston mission:
Each one yelled goodbye pop
when left-Polish KIDS and all"
Withrow told OF Baptist minister
regretting that he (Withrow) had not
some clear in. and said:
III that Baptist minister had
gone any further in that did ne
would have drowned"
II must have been a slip Of the
tongue when he said:

the members of the churches"

Attorney General z. T. England has
construed the state registration law to
provide a practical solution for a dis.
crepancy which appears in connection
with two of its provisions. The law
provides first that the registrars file
their registration lists with the clerk
OF the county court on or before the
second Monday in July; IL also pro-
vides that the county court shall sit
on the first Monday In the month to
review the lists OF the registrars. a
thing manifestly impossible.
The attorney general has suggested
to C. B. Welton. county clerk Of Hardy
county. that the county court meet on
the first Monday and then adjourn
over 70 the second Monday to CON-
pIete the examination Of the lists.
