A Joint Celebration

Mrs. John M. Booker's birth
day, w. c. Coker's birthday, and
the Mangum' wedding anniver-
sary come at about the same
time, and the three families are
accustomed, every year, to have
joint celebration; first at one
home and then at the other. A
shadow lowered over the pre-
parations for the party at Mr..
Coker's last Sunday evening be-
cause it was feared that Mr..
Booker, who had gone to Wash
ingt0n with K. =. McClamroch,
would not get back in time, But
plate was set for him. Just
as the supper was about to be
served shaft Of light from the
McClamroch car headlights
swept through the dining room
window; the car came to halt
before the door; and Mr.. Booker
made a triumphant entrance to
the accompaniment of cheers.

Village for Repeal
But Adverse Vote in Rest of County
More Than Offsets Majority Here

Chapel Hill went for repeal
in the election Tuesday, and it
was the only precinct in Orange
county that did. There were
438 votes for "Convention" and
PIT for mo Convention" Col
iier Cobb, repeal delegate, re-
ceived 428 votes against 28O
cast for j. J. Ward, anti-repeal
delegate
The majority for repeal here
was not nearly as great as the
advocates of the cause had eX-
pected, and the result was TAX
en-, and correctly, as portent
of defeat in the state. IF the
margin is no larger than that, y
said a repealist when Paul Rob
ertson announced the final
count, there's no hope for re-
peal" A telephone call to Carr
boro brought the news that
there the vote was 236 against
a convention to so for, and 243
for Ward to AZ for Cobb. Thus,
Chapel Hill and Carrboro to-
gether went 513 to 498 against
repeal, and 523 for Ward to
ATS for Cobb.
Orange county voted against
repeal by 1,169 to 807.

To Move against Beer
Drys to Demand Repeal of Law That
Permits Sale of 32ee Brew

AS a result of their victory
in Tuesdays election, dry lead
ers in North Carolina are pre-
pairing to demand the repeal of
the present beer law at the next
meeting of the legislature, in
January Of 1885.
1--WE expect the 1895 leglsla-
ture TO follow the mandate of
the people and repeal the beer
law" said w. l.. Poteat, chief
of the United Dry forces day
before yesterday. This law
should never have been enacted.
North Carolina has been
consistently dry since 1903
when Prohibition was voted by
$4,000 majority. In 1923 we
demonstrated this states atti-
tude by defeating AL Smith. We
have now a 10000 majority"
OF course the advocates of
beer will dispute the statement
that the vote Tuesday was a
mandate against the present
law permitting the sale of 80
per cent brew. Undoubtedly
many Of the people who voted
against repeal this week, be-
cause they thought a majority
for it might lead to the repeal
of the states anti-liquor law, are
not opposed to beer. How many
there are who hold this opinion,
anti-hard-liquor but pro-beer,
nobody knows.
Then there are around $780,
900 citizens who voted in the
Roosevelt Hoover election but
did not vote this week. 1t is a
guess how they stand on beer.
These two facts, that the sale
of beer has not led to any drunk
enness or rowdyism and that it
is bringing a considerable rev.
enue into the state and local
treasures, may be expected to
strengthen those who, when the
next legislature meets, oppose
the re-outlawing of beer.

Chapel Hill Chaf

Mr.. Godbold, the Methodist
pastor, came into the Office We'd
nesday and presented me three
giant golden chrysanthemums.
Maybe they were a consolation
offering apropos of the defeat
of repeal. They were splendid
consolation, for they were as
gorgeous blooms as ever | saw.
1t occurred to me that it would
be only fair for me to offer Mr.
Godbold a toddy in return. But
| didn't, for two reasons: first,
he wouldn't have accepted it, not
being an addict; second, | didn't
have toddy-at the moment.
Oscar Hamilton is the only
man | know who has been a
witness Of two football games at
the same time. Not an eye-wit-
ness but an ear-WitnesS. He at
tended them by radio
He was eager to listen in on
the Tulane-Colgate game last
Saturday, and he was also keen
ly interested in the Fordham-
St. Mary's game. Which should
he choose? He answered the
question by choosing both. A
little portable radio which he
had recently acquired was set
up in the room with the regular
family instrument; for an aer-
ial, it had wire which was
trailed along curtain pole.
Mr.. Hamilton worked the but
tons. When time was taken out
in the Tulane-Colgate game, he
would turn on the Fordham-St.
