To Leslie Howard, who dared to
produce Hamlet" as a sort Of
browning histrionic gesture to his
career, should like to send an au-
tographed picture Of his distin-
guished contemporary, John Giel-
gud. But I'm afraid he wouldn't
cherish 1t.
On the other hand, I might ar
range an amicable exchange Of pho
tographs between Martha Raye and
Joe E. Brown.
For Spencer Tracy, 100 votes for
the next acting award Of the Acad-

And Better Luck
Who needs clothes? I'll bet
Adolphe Memoirs wardrobe doesn't
include pair of blue jeans, o
sweatshirt, and some sneakers. And
Eleanor Powell-she needs some
frilly, feminine dancing costumes
and a divorce from those horren-

look like something you used to see
through a microscope in entomol-
ogy.
To Bling Crosby, hardest Of hard

AlI-Time January High Is
Hailed as important
Recovery Sign.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE. February 3.-An all
time high January construction rec
ord in the Southern States, heralding
swift business upturn, was re-
ported by the Manufacturers Record.
The publication, chronicler of in
dustrial and commercial activity In
the South, listed awards for building,
engineering and general construction
projects in that section last month
as reaching total Of S104,266, 900.
This figure was more than double
the $5l 1897 900 total for January of
last year or the S48.870,00o for the
same month of 1884.
Moreover" the trade periodical
said, "the January total compares
favorably with the total of SIP, 100000
Of awards in the closing month of
last year, which, with single ex-
ception, surpassed all previous month
ly figures"
Skilled Labor Scarce.
Commenting on the figures, Carroll
E. Williams, construction news ed
ItOT, udu UIllS 10 say.
THE construction outlook is brighter
than it has been in months. Prices
of materials are rising, shortage of
skilled labor threatens. Home build
ing will set a flve-year record this
year"
The January increase was described
as especially significant in the face
of a reported drop in public building
awards and road building. Last
months awards for public buildings
were given as S26,831 900, compared
with s33,186,000 in December, and
roads and BRIDGE, S20,000,000, COM
pared with 1881 ,000-a drop of
sl4,000,000 in these two divisions of
publicly financed construction.
Industries Expand.
On the contrary. industrial and en-
cheering projects in January con-
tinued to mount, awards being $50
654,o00, compared with s47,856 600 in
the preceding month. Industrial plant
awards totaled s45,6o9,000, against
S35,9370 900 in December.
This pickup was interpreted by
the Manufacturers Record as mean
ing Southern and outside capital is
again being invested in new and ex-
panding industries"
Developments of the chemical in
dustry in the South" the journal re-
counted, continues to attract Nation
wide interest. Just now the paper
industry holds the sage, with a
s3,500000 pulp mill just announced
for Houston, Tex; construction under
way on s4,500,000 mill at Savannah.
Ga, and an extension to Lynchburg,
Va, mill costing 100000, and plans
nearing completion for a $4,000 600
plant at Crossett, Ark"

Sheriff Makes Settlement
For 1885 Taxes OF County
Total Credits Allowed Are $172,597.11, With Uncol
lected Balance of $18, 768 80; For Additional Items
Add Up From 1856 La nd Sales, $8,841 Personal

Full and final settlement for 1885
county tax accounts was made by
Sheriff j. E. Hamlet with the Vance
Board of County Commissioners Mon
day at the boards monthly meeting
for October, and the basis was the
allowance of credits aggregating $172,-
59711, against tax list of $191, 1866
charged to the sheriff year ago. The
total uncollected balance was given
as $18,797.79. This consisted of per-
sonal accounts of $8,841.76 and land
sales of $9,956.O3, plus few minor
items.
It was explained that the new 1896
tax books would be turned over to
the sheriff for collection as soon as
the remainder Of the tax receipts had
been completed, and when G. w.
Adams, county accountant, completed
the reconciliation of advance tax pay
ments with the records. This is ex-
pected to be within few days, pro-
badly by the end of this week.
Mr.. Adams said today he had col
lected in advance tax payments, that
is, settlements made before the books
were completed, in the amount of APP
proximately $4,000 The item would
be even more if it included discounts
allowed for these early payments,
that item alone being around $500.

COMMISSIONERS To
ENLARGE OLD JAIL
Will Obtain Estimates On
Cost for Increasing Pri-
son Facilities
TO REQUEST WPA FUND
Abandon Idea of Finding Entirely
New and Separate Quarters;
Immediate Action Before
Winter Is Planned
TO REQUEST WPA FUND

An agreement to enlarge and re-
model the present Vance county Jail
plant, rather than to remove it to
otter quarters. even temporarily, was
reached by the Vance Board O. Coun-
ty commissioners Monday afternoon
at their regular lEohthly meeting for
October. Chairman Samuel NJ Wat
kins said contractor would be ask
ed to make estimates of the cost and
to sketch off changes contemplated.
The commissioners ere of a mind to
proceed immediately with the chan
geS and improvements. The work is
understood to be contemplated with a
Wow to rendering service for a year
or two or possibly three years, where
upon a project may be launched for
the construction of a combination
new court house and Jail for the
county The board is represented as
feeling that it is desirable to cut down
the present Indebtedness of the coun-
IT, mere before adding new obliga-
lions
Funds from the Federal WPA will
be sought for the Jail program, and
it is believed that considerable al
lotment toward the total cost can be
obtained in that manner.
The remodeling plans contemplates
the addition of more Jail cells and
sanitary improvements. The commits
sioners Monday had before them the
monthly report of Tailor w. S.
Strange that Jail days in September
numbered 835, an all-time record
high and there were rs prisoners in
the Jail at the end of the month. Fa-
cilities are not sufficient to accom-
modate that many prisoners, espe-
cially with the addition of women, as
has been done in recent months.
The board abandoned, at least for
the time, the idea Of finding separate
quarters for the Jail from that now
in use, which is, of course, owned by
the county. Immediate action is de-
sired in whatever work may be done,
before the worst of the winter sets
