In September

Raleigh.-Automobile accidents
claimed 116 lives in North Caro-
lima in september only one less
than the record highway death toll
for one month which was set in
December, 1884, at liz.
In nine months this year auto
mobile accidents claimed 757
lives in the state, 10 more than
the 647 killed i nthe similar period
Of 1884.
Compilation of the September
statistics was not complete, R. R.
Mclaughlin, director Of the mo-
tor vehicle bureau said, but it wa.
shown that drunken drivers fgur-
ed in 81 non-fatal accidents.
The death list of 116 for Sep

be executed under the powers al
ready granted to the Congress,
7 amendment has proved to be a sim
pie and speedy process, once pub
lie sentiment has become crystal
lized.
The 10th Amendment is an apt
illustration. This Amendment
changed the terms of office of the
President and Vice-Pnesident and
of all Senator's and Representatives.
Under the 18th Amendment all of
these took office on the Fourth of
March following their election. But
Congress was required, under Ar
ticle l, Section 4, to meet annually
on the first Monday in December.
That resulted in what came to be
known as 'lame duck" Congresses,
many of whose members, although
defeated at the November election,
held office until the following Mar.
18th.
In March, 1882, Congress sub
mitted to the states an amendment
making the terms of Senators and
Representatives begin on January
3rd. and those of the President and
Vioe-President on January 10th.
The annual meeting date of the
Congress was changed to January
3. In less than one year, 50 states
had ratified this 10th Amendment,
which was proclaimed as a part Of
the Constitution on February 81
1888.
1t took even a shorter time to
establish the 21st Amendment, re-
pealing the 18th or Prohibition
Amendment. This was submitted
to the states in February, 1888, by
the present administration, and be-
came a part of the Constitution on
December 5, 1888.
Both of these amendments had
an overwhelming weight Of public
opinion behind them. Such has
proved the rule; that in like man !,
ner, when a proposal to change the
Federal Government structure has ,
it strong, nationwide pub
lie opinion, then is our Constitu-
ton usually amended and changed.

Employment
Gains Y Per
CentInS State

Raleigh.-Employment in man
ufacturing and non-manufactur-
ing industries in North Carolina
has increased over II per cent
the past six months, September in
spection records of the state de-
partment of labor show.
The changes in employment are
based on reports of 6o7 business
enterprises throughout North Ca
rolina last month as compared with
figures last spring.
Principal increase was found in
textile mills, including hosiery. In
this group, which employs ire ma
jority of workers, an increase Of
1917 per cent was found. Most Of
the textile plants are operating
now in a day and night shift Of
eight hours each, or 40 hours per
week.
Every industrial group with the
exception of tobacco, reflects a
substantial increase in the number
of wage earners. The tobacco
groups reporting, mainly redrying
plants, showed a drop in employ
ment of a. per cent. This work
is regarded as seasonal and there
fore subject to variation.

Enlarged Glee Club
Rehearses For Wide
spread Performances
To Sing In Caro-
lima and Northern States
First Concert In Nov.
From The Pioneer

As one of the most active and
important organizations on the
campus, the College Glee Club has
started another year of strenuous
work. Rehearsals twice a week are
already under way, with the aim
of producing the finest and most
extensive performances ever rem
dered by this organization. The
interest shown this year has been
especially keen, so it is thought
that the goal will be easily at
tanned.
One of the most notable features
of this years club is the number
of people who tried out for ad-
mission into the organization. From
the one hundred new and old STU
dents that were tested, sixty-fve
members were selected. The great
est care was taken to choose the
most efficient, so that one may
say that the Catawba College Glee
Club now has quality as we'll as
quantity.
The material this year is decid-
eddy more outstanding than that Of
previous years. In addition to forty
Of the best voices of last year being
retained. the new material greatly
surpasses the old. With
this large number being carried
over, it is evident hat together
with such fine interest and splen-
did material, there will be little
difficulty in the glee club main
tanning its reputation of other
years.
At the present time preparation
is being made for a Christmas pro-
gram. The exact date has not yet
been decided upon, but will be in
the latter part of November. The
earlier part of the season will be
spent in the making of twelve
or fifteen trips to points in North
and South Carolina. This will in
clude concerts at Charlotte.
Greensboro, High Point, Burling-
ton, Salisbury, as well as the larg-
er cities of the two states.
An invitation already has beer
extended to give a concert at Will
mington in the early part of Feb
ruary. If this invitation is accept
ed, it will probably be the first
large concert of the season. How
ever, plans r being made for ar
extended tour, but the destination
has not yet been decided. Thi
will probably be a trip through
the northern states, although moth.
ing definite has been decided

CHAPTER III
"Who's calling me?"
Pa was coming in at the back
door. He was a tall man, with
narrow sloping shoulders, and
a stringy neck too thin for
the collars he wore. He called
to them all, but his eyes were
for Mary, young, pretty Mary,
still fussing with the flower,
at the sink.
Move over, make room for a
mani" With a push that was
at once rough and tender he
took her place, washed face
and hands with a great lather.
ing and splashing, while Ma
began pouring the tea, and
Aunt Willie sabbled on about
her digestion, and two-fifty per-
manents, and something she'd
heard about a new reducing
bread.
"Sit down. Sit down every
body! Eat while it's hot. Mary,
pass your father the carrots n
peas"
The food was good. The color
came back to Mary Shannon's
cheeks. She was rested. One
day, the working day, was over.
Another was starting, another
existence. The night, to dream,
to plan, to do with as she
wished.
80 I said to her, I says,
Excuse me, madam, but our
doughnuts have ALWAYS been

Aunt Willie telling about her
day in thu bakery.
Dad, chewing methodically,
reaching with his fork for more
bread; ma, getting up to scrape
the last of the peas from sauce
pan to serving dish. Fat old
Tootsie, wheeling and begging
for tidbits, and Aunt Willie
screaming, Down, darlin'!
You can't have mammals din.
ner-no. you can't! Oh. all
right, speak. then! Speak,
Tootsie! Look at her. If that
isn't CUTE! For goonesake-"
Hearing, yet not hearing,
Mary sat there at the kitchen
table, one of them. yet not one
of them. Through her mind
fitted little pictures Of the
things she wanted to do to-
night. Wash her hair, for one
thing. It was at its best when
just shampooed. Jamie called
her Fluffy Top, sometimes.
Fluffy Top.
whats tke awful discovery
you made about my boy friend,
Aunt Willie?"
"What? Down, Tootsie! GET
DOWN! Oh, for goonesake. I
almost forgot. Well, I hardly
know whether to mention it or
not. I thought I might speak
to you about it later, when we
were alone"
els it too terrible for Ma and
Pa to hear? Oh, go ahead,
Aunt Willie. Let's have the
worst. I hope he doesn't
drink"
ooh, it's nothing like that!
Nothing about his character, I
mean. It's just that-Well, I
don't know what to make of it.
It said in the Sacramento paper
it just happened to come in
wrapped around some pie plates,
and I just happened to look at
it. It said that a Miss Vesta
Granger had just announced
her engagement to James Todd,
jr. I couldn't understand it. I
practically understood that he
was engaged to you. So I
thought I'd tell you. I really
didn't know-wait! I'll get the
paper"
Mary Shannon waited.
Pa, his face getting very red,
waited, too. Ma poured herself
another cup Of tea. She had
turned a curious greenish color.
Her hand shook. The tea spilled
in her saucer.

AS usual, the box was empty.
"Hello!" she called from the
little square front hall.
Hello, DEAR" Ma called
from the kitchen.
Something was wrong. You
could always tell with Ma. Her
voice was a dead give away.
Look brought you a gar

What's the news? Don't you
feel well?"
Ma, flushed from cooking,
her movements Hurried and
bit strained, laid down the
loaf of bread she was cutting
and shifted at the white
fragrance of the waxy flower.
''Mmm. Lovely. I'm fine. But
you oughtn't to spend your

"Oh, just something extrava-

"Extravagant all right, I

basement puttering with the
radio, though there's nothing

I'm all ready to dish up. WILL
LIE! DIN-NER!"-and then in
a whisper, as she whisked the
peas and carrots into a dish,
"She's found out something
about Jamie Todd. She wouldn't
tell me what it was, but she's
limiting like it was worse than
a murder. Now don't you
mind, Babe, because you know
how she is. She means well,
but She"
jamie!
Mary shannon's lips stiff
fened.
Then she laughed. ooh!
Well! Il THAT'S all. I should
think you'd know more than
to LISTEN to her. She gets
everything wrong. and if you
ask me, she's getting worse all
the time. Heavens, Ma, what
OF it! Suppose she did hear
something. Wait I'll ask
her"
mo, I wouldn't. She's been
acting very funny. She's got
one of her mysterious StreakS
on. And she's been in her
room for hours, fixing herself.
I don't know what for. WILL
LIE! DINNERS READY!-It's
a facial, think. She took an
egg in with her, and mixed
some kind of gray Stuff-shh!
Well, Willie, I thought you'd
died in there!"
Aunt Willie, no longer young,
and not yet resigned to it,
moved with an exaggerated
Swagger. She was wearing an
old rose crepe that stretched
taut across her wide bosom and
hips, and revealed an unfash-
ionable length of thin muscular
legs in light chiffon hose, in
which two runs had been clun-
silly darned, and an under
growth of heavy dark hair
was clearly Swallowed.
Ma had been right. Willie
had been fixing herself" again,
with the usual disastrous re-
suits. Her face was a blotchy,
angry pink, under a coating of
pale mauve powder.
She was four or five years
younger than Ma, and looking
older. Ma, in spite of a few
gray hairs and a little matronly
plumpness. was still fresh and
pretty, with her soft dark hair,
her still smooth ivory skin and
clear, blue-gray eyes, serenely
far apart.
Mary got her looks from her
mother, though she was tall
and slender, like Pa.

UNCLE WIGGILY'S PIG BABY

One day as Uncle Wiggily was

Twistytail, the lady pig, lived, he
