CONTRACT FOR ROAD WORK LEr,
observation-disclosures Section
Is in Line for Early Construction.
(Atlanta Constitution, Oct. 81

(Atlanta Constitution, Oct. 81
The many Atlantans who visited
Highlands and other resort places
in North Carolina will be delighted
to hear that, as a result of the con-
structton OF magnificent highway
from Seneca, s. G., to Highlands, N.
c., the hardships Of rough riding in
cident to the trip will be- removed
and the entire resort section of North
Carolina will be opened to auto tour
lists.
Under contract awarded to tho
firm Of Wright & Nave splendid
highway will be built from Seneca
to Highlands, via Walhalla, S. c..
Rabun county, Georgia, and Noun
tain Rest, S. G. A serviceable road
Is already available from Atlanta to
Seneca. and the construction, work
from that city on to Highlands will
mean that good road from Atlanta
direct to Highlands will be opened.
The worst part Of the present road
lies between Walhalla and Mountain
Rest, but the building Of the high
way will mean that this stretch will
be Just as good in all respects as any
other part Of the way.
First bids for the construction
work were asked on Aug. II, but on
account Of the extremely heavy rains
prior to that date even prospective
bidders could not get over the roads
to investigate conditions, and as a
result no bids we're made. Others
were then called for on Sept. ID, and
their opening resulted in the an
nouncement Saturday Of the award
ing of the contract to Wright &.
Nave by the bureau Of public roads
in Washington.

MORE MEN NOW THAN JOBS.
Employment Agencies Say that Work
Is Now Being Sought.

New York, Oct. 2.-Reports made
public here tonight by employment
agencies Of both the Salvation Army
and Knights Of Columbus indicated
that jobs soon will be scarce in the
cities.
Equalization Of labor supply and
demand during the last week was
reported the five employment offices
in this city conducted by the Saliva
ton Army. For the first time in two
years as many men were found seek
ing work as there were Jobs avail
able.
A feature OF the week, a statement
by the army said, was a falling off
in the demand for unskilled workers.
Previously there had been a greater
call for this class OF labor than for
white collar" workers. The report
said 1t was altogether possible that
the near future would see a return
of the condition where there are
more men than Jobs.
VIM. ]. Mckinley, supreme secre-
tary Of the Knights OF Columbus, af-
ter three months survey Of the
knights OF Columbus employment
bureaus, warned young men from
agricultural districts to keep away
from the cities.

children were born, TREE OF whom
survive him. These are Mrs. Thos.
Compton, Of West Union; Mrs. Hol-
lis Whitten, Of Anderson, and Mrs.
j. r. Tribble, Of Walhalla.
Mr.. Jafferson was for long time
engaged in the Department of War
Of the British Empire, and at the
time Of his resignation and retire
ment from active service was chief
of one Of the bureaus of that depart
ment. He came to the United States
in 1870 and first located near Pendle-
ton, later moving to. Townville, and
Still later coming to Walhalla. He
had been n citizen of our town for
more than 25 years. He became a
naturalized citizen of the United
States and took an active interest in
the affairs Of his adopted country,
giving careful thought and consider
alton to the casting Of his ballot in
all elections from those of the NUM-
| cipality to the elections for State and
| national officials. He was gentle
man Of the old school. and his entire
| life was upright and honorable.
Though he was thoroughly Ameri-
can, he always took lively interest
in the affairs of the old country, and
was profoundly delighted to see the
stalwart young America go to the
relief OF the mother country in her
dire need during the great war.
His life companion Of 63 years pre-
| ceded him to the grave two years
ago, Sept. Q, 1918, and since that
time he had truly been bereft sorely
He was confined to his bed for sew
eral months, but was ever a patient
sufferer, bearing his afliction with
true Christian fortitude. He was
member Of the Episcopal church Of
Walhalla, and by his walk and words
gave an example worthy Of emula-
ton.
There are many in Oconee and
elsewhere who will learn with deep
regret OF the passing Of this good
man. 1t was our pleasure to count
Alexander Jafferson among our
closest personal friends, despite the
wide difference in age. We esteem it
privilege to have known him and
to have had opportunity to observe
his daily life and walk.
On Saturday afternoon. Oct. I'd,
appropriate funeral services were
conducted by the pastor of the de-
ceased, Rev. Guy Frazer, Of Ander-
son, and the body was borne to its
last resting place in Westview Gem
etery, six Of his grandsons acting as
pallbearers. This latter fact added
to the touchingly beautiful solemnity
of the occasion.

My. Mckinley, "and hundreds of

"The present fall in prices Of GER

led by fall in wages for certain

decided drop in many industries
and the supply Of help, especially Of

Morella De Lue was at home.
1t was rather a dlngy room whose
keynote was the drab-brown Of the
conventional cheap boarding house
but there were high lights of color
where gay silk petticoat burst
through the swelling curtains of cor
ner closet, or pink lingerie tumbled
carelessly out of a half-open drawer.
The wide couch that served as bed
by night was heaped high with gor-
geous pillows-and for the rest, there
was MOrella herself, red-gold hair en-
dowed by nature, sea-blue eyes set be-
meath a thoughtful brow; a large,
sweet mouth that always smiled-oft-
time when it wanted to droop with
weariness-a tiny mite of a Morella,
who could dance like an elf on the
brim of the magic fountain, and who
could sing cheerily In the dull room as
she sewed spangles on gossamer elfin
wings that she must wear that night.
Heavy footsteps sounded outside her
door, and she heard the plaintive voice
Of her landlady.
"a gentleman to see you, Miss De
Lue-here's his card" The steps wan
dered away and Morella snatched at
the bit of white pasteboard under the
door. ANDREW" she breathed soft

SIDE WHISPERS IN LONDON

The London exquisite is doing his

of the musical show 1.-THE Magic

of the dancing elves. Sometimes Fen

scenes, but this was the first time he
had singled her out for marked at

Andrew Fenton was clever-looking
man of thirty-tive, with brilliant dark
eyes and a fine mouth that smiled
down at Morella's establishment in a
very kindly way.

roses in her cheeks, feeling like saucy

Later when the wheels Of the pow
erful machine crunched q sandy shore
and the fresh sound breeze had
whipped more color into MOrella' s
lovely little face, Fenton brought the
conversation around to the play, Nor
elias part in it, and finally asked her
bluntly what she was doing In New
York anyway, all alone at her age.
Born here" said Morella briefly.
"But not bred here" smiled Fenton.
"WelI-we did live in a little coun-
try town for years-then mother died
and father married again-well, I've
always longed for New York and
Broadway-isn't 1t wonderful" She
sighed the sigh Of the neophyte.
Fenton laughed. Dear child, what

VersIfers Seemingly Are Much
Thought OF by the Sometimes
UngentIe Mexican Soldiers.

Poets enjoy great privileges and i'm
munities In Mexico
They have q story in Coahuila about
this power of poets. In the early
stages of the constitutionalist revolu-
ton some federal troops had been
driven from a wood, but few Of the
little brown, pajamaed tnfantrymen
climbed into the trees as easily as the
monkeys they resembled. So the
rebels went about as squirrel hunters.
One party surrounded tree In whose
branches the fawn color of uniform
had been observed. Just as the rifles
were raised, a brown hand with an
oratorical gesture was thrust through
the leaves, and a clipped head ap-
peared.
Don't shoot" said the voice with
theatrical meditation, don't shoot
me. l am poet"
The soldier was the regimental
poet, composer of the verses for the
folksongs in which are related the
progress of the campaign. Almost
every regiment in the old federal
army had its laureate.
Come down, Mr.. Poet" cried the
men below, and they made him recite
some of his verses, after which each
one of the rebels gave him a good,
hard hug.
One may not strike poet, any more
than woman, whether he is up a
tree in COahuila or occupying a city

the girl he loved-a girl who was pure

went on smiling, dancing-starry-e
beautiful until the curtain rang down,
when suddenly she became a weary,
draggled elf-!the last to leave the
dressing room.
Then, as she was leaving, a sweet
feminine voice drew her back again.
The great empty space behind the
stage was vacant, with here and there
a dim light burning in wire cage and
Morello gasped as she recognized the
