A certain Senator was up for re-
election in a Midwestern State last
year. He had voted against the bonus
and naturally was fearful when his
campaign opened. He thought the is
sue might be raised. to the detriment
Of others more important.
He was agreeably surprised when no
one mentioned the bonus until the last
week of the campaign. Then a man
in the front row got up with the miss
ing question. The Senator replied
directly. saying he would vote to pay
only what was due under the old law
at any given date. but no more.
The Senator was amazed when his
heckler deplored his stand, but con-
graduated him for his forthrightness.
The crowd cheered. It could not have
worked out better for the Senator If
the heckler had been a plant, which
he was not.
Note-The Senator tOas Vdnden-
berg of Michigan, the only Repub-
licdn presidential possibility in
Congress who poted against the
bonus.
True Tale.
It sounds improbable, but New York
Congressman swears it is true. At
any rate the story now is being told
in the House cloak room that the
newest boondoggling scheme in Con-
necticut Is to plant briar bushes to
make better cover for rabbits and thus
improve hunting
Authorities around the Senate who
know Mississippi do not believe that
Bilbo can beat Pat Harrison, but are
lamenting the vague possibility. Har-
rison is very popular.
Mr.. Roosevelt has been doing a
great deal Of work In bed or at his

from the ofice until late in the morn
ing or after lunch. The mansion gives

TINS.
Last years ball melted something
over $50, and was not considered such
success, financially. Lack of coop
Grafton on the part of the public was
blamed for this.
Since that time, this section has
been visited by an infantile paraly-
sis epidemic and 10 Vance county
children were stricken, five of them
dying.
Mrs. E. r. Austin, county welfare
superintendent, reported to the Ro-
tary Club at its meeting last night
that parents of three of the children
were able to have them treated, leav-
ing II that are in need of treatment.
These children are tteing carde for
III clinics as fast as possible, but
there's expense to their treatment,
and a fund realized from the dance
would go a long way toward aiding
these unfortunate children.
The public is urged to attend the
dances or buy a ticket even though
they do not dance, and, in SO doing,
may make it possible for some child
who cannot walk today may dance
some day.
