f1ODAElkNf. 1893. Df DI4LHN FEE>Af
WASHINGTON, July 1.-Two
former Republicans in the Roosevelt
cabinet. Interior Secretary Harold
L. Ickes. and Agriculture Secretary
Henry l.. Wallace. are wearing
down the sunny disposition of James
A. Farley, postmaster-general chair
nan of the Democratic national
committee, and chief patronage dis
penser, because they are resisting
pressure to give jobs TO good Dem
ocrats.
The genial national chairman has
endeavored TO place his personal
representatives in various govern
ment agencies to approve prospec-
tive appointees.
Secretary Ickes, not interested in
political patronage, listened coolly
when it was suggested that a nan
be stationed in the interior de-
partment to pass on appointments.
The man was sent anyway, and
he was given a desk in the office Of
Louis r. CLAWS, special investigator
for the interior department, the
man who uncovered the Ballinger
affair in the Taft administration.
The atmosphere was too frigid.
and the patronage arbiter left after
a few days.
For the agriculture department,
Farley selected Julien N. Friant of
Missouri. He was given an Office
next door TO Secretary Wallace. But
the door is shut most of the time.
Wallace wanted to select his own
personnel, much of it requiring eX-
pert training.

Nv Mrs. Walter Carpenter

Visit your public library and
enjoy the good things it has in
store for you. Whether you are
& citizen or a summer visitor you
will be welcome. A newly erect
ed sign on the Penney store, COR
ner on Main street, will direct
YOU there if you do not know the
way. Now that the depression"
has curtailed, many of our luxur-
les and enjoyments we may turn
to those that are free.
And from the world of litera-
ture, old and new, what is one to
read?
Here is a prescription for your
various moods:
If your mind needs a strong
tonic. full of energy as well as
thought, try 1.-THE Haunted Book
shop" by Christopher Morley.
If your mind needs Whit OF
fresh spring air, take a trip into
the dear little Welch country
though the pages of "ln Search
of Wales" by H. V. Morton.
If you have some spare time
and only need to be amused,
read, "Mary's Neck" by Booth
Harrington.
If the days have become SOM
bre and dull you need the spark
ling bit of romance in Shadows
on the Rock" by Villa Gather.
If your rose garden is now
your chief concern read, Roses
and How to Grow Them" by D..
Horace Mcfarland.
If you are a visitor and do not
have time to see all the mountain
country while here, read "The
Carolina Mountains" by Mar
garet Morley.
But there are many other good
books which fit different occa-
sions. As Morley has said in
THE Haunted BookshOp," at is
a good thing to turn your mind
upside down now and then like
the hour-glass, to let the par
ticles run the other way"
Attend the silver tea which vii!
be given early in June and find
out a few things about the lib
rary for yourself. People pay
very little attention to what IS
told them unless they know some
thing about it already.
