that am expecting?
Ans.-NOt the money but
you are going to get a job and a
good one at that. Your income is
going to be somewhat better this
winter than it has been during the
past three years.
A. G.-Why is my grandfather
so strict with me?
Ans.-Because you aren't OLD
ENOUGH to go with boys but your
fun will come later so stop
fretting about his being strict
with you.
R. T.-Should l accept the
change of jobs that has been Of
fered me or would it be wise to
think of getting something entire
ly new?
Ans.-Take the proposition that
has been offered to you. You will
be able to work yourself up in a
good paying job within a period
of a few years. To begin anew
in some other firm would only
mean starting all over again.
M. E. O.-Tell me if the man 1
am keeping company with ever ex-
poets to marry me and if so when?
Ans.-Never as long as you
allow him to take up your time and
not go with anyone else but him,
he will do it. Snap right out of
this present state and get out and
meet some nice fellows and enjoy
life for a change. Marriage will
come but not as long as you
fool away your time with this
party.
N. J.-Tell me if my son is
guilty of what he is being charged
with?
Ans.-He was involved in the
matter q. the only thing that you
can do to help him would be to
secure the aid of some good attOr-
ney. ~...- 5s& 5.-aE.
| E. H.-Does the woman 1 go
with care as much for me as I
do for her?
Ans.-She really does ! but
she will never admit it to you or
anyone else. In time she will prove
to you just how much you mean
to her. 81 =. Z.

LOOKING AFTER THEMSELVES

While congress is engaged in cgislating for the
other fellow some little attention should he given
to the enactment of laws concerning its own mem
bcrs.
One of the most amazing things IN connection
with congress is that the members are allowed 20
cents Il mile for travel to and from Washington
4 special session is to be Governed next month and
a rcmbcr of congress living 5000 miles away from
Washington will receive as extra pay $1,000 for
away will get $40. The special session will adjourn
before Christmas, or if members of congress elect
TO remain in Washington during the holidays and
until the next regular session cOnvencS in January
they will receive the travel allowance just the
same. This travel allowance is in addition to the
SlO 600 annual salary which each member receives
This 20 cents q mile travel allowance was start
ed back in the horse and buggy days when trip
10 Washington was long, tedious and expensive
Now. the best railroad accommodations can be
had for FIVE cents mile.
The other subject to which congress should give
its attention is to remove the income tax exemp-
ton on federal salaries. At present, $4,000
federal employe is excused from paying income
tax while a private citizen who works Just as dill
gently is subject to pay several hundred dollars
tax on the same amount of income.
These two things are unjust and unfair. They
should be modified at this special session, yet we
don't hear a chrrup about either of them from
members of congress who enjoy these benefits

ORGANIZATIONS IN TIE DARK

Even the current halt in the decline of the stock
market cannot stay the flood Of cheerio statements
from Washington, it appears. Why public officials
should indulge in this genuinely effective way Of
promoting fear and distruSt throughout business
has never been satisfactorily explained; apparently
all OF those who come within computing distance
of statistic in an official capacity, consider 1t
incumbent on themselves to shout encouraging
facts" to all who will listen. That this cXtraord-
nary mum5o-junbo usually achieves quite the OPP
posite effect seems never to occur to them
1t is all very well 10 realize that there is large
flood of potential business being held no because
Of miasma of distruSt pcrvadng he country
The fog may pass and business resume its upsurgc
Or it may not be so Immediately. If the ncanta-
tions seem to work, they must have been unneccs-
sary in the first place. If they fail they constitute
taumb-nail expose of the wit and vision Of those
who made them.

A GROWING POPULATION

Statistics ON North Cardinals prison population
I'm September show another substantial increase in
the number of men and women i'm confinement in
state penal institutions. an increase which brings
the total number OF prisoners above $500. In 4
state with more than 100000 population and
boasting of the purcst Ane'o-SaNon stock, the in
crease is shocking. If there were . lack Of employ
mcut fog thousands, growing prison population
would be more readily understandable, but such IS
not the case. Almost any laborer wiling to work
can find JOB and there is an actual shortage Of
skilled workers not only in North Carolina but III
other states rs well.
In this day and age when youth enjoys greater
freedom than was the lot of the boy and girl Of
but generation ago. one may find basis for the
reckless abandon that shows itself in these Stats
ties. The average age of conyicts entering prisons
has dropped sharply in the last few years. Boys
of rs to 20 years are numerous. Are the homes
Sinking q responsibility? Are the schools failing
TO impress the obligations of citizenship? Has the
influence of the church to lead the young disap-
pcared? In reality what are the causes? We can
not saw Statisticians who deal with prisoners and
PSYCHOLOGISTS who examine them cannot offer So
luton that will reduce growing prison population
and remove the necessity for investment Of huge
sums in charging systems.
We have often thought that the lack Of old
fashioned discipline in the home was a conuibu-
tory factor And despite what psychologists have
to say about parental responsibilities, we cannot
escape the conclusion that if the home were triC!c
more positive. the results would be fclt.--Shclby

BLACK KU kLUX
(By William Pickens for Amp

No, I am not talking about
black man: that would be phenom-
inal. But it is hardly less phenom-
inal, altho for different reasons,
to find a Ku-Kluxer on the Su-
preme Court of the United States.
It is now published in the daily
papers that Hugo Black, Roose-
velt's recent appointment to the
highest court of the land, is sti1l
a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
If that is a sample of what Roose-
welt meant to pack the Court with,

led by Senator Wheeler of the
West, defeated Roosevelt's plan to
appoint six members. If we must
have Ku-Kluxers on the high
court, certainly one is about six
times better than six
Some of us were under no illu-
sions: we knew that when Black,
of Alabama, was added to the
Court, that was one permanent
vote against the Negro. There
was nothing that could be done
about it, except SAY SO, and
show your intelligence. He could
not be defeated as Parker was
defeated for good reasons. Con-

It has been said that beverages are
the main stay of the hostess especially
when there are unexpected guests. 1t
is true that most anyone can serve
cold lemonade, hot chocolate, iced tea,
or iced coffee, but the smart hostess is
the one who has list of new and in
teresting beverages in her recipe file
that will delight her guests, rather than
just please them.
Grape Juice is one the most versa
tile of the natural fruit beverages, and
from it many delicious drinks can be
made. Served plain Or in combination
with other beverages, it makes popu-
lar year round drink Because of the
richness of grape juice, it will permit
diluting and thus reduces the proper
tionate cost to the consumer.
With the approach of the summer
season it will be well to check over your
supply of bottled beverages, particu-
larly grape juice, so that you will be
well prepared to make any of the de-
icious drinks that follow. It is such
an inexpensive drink and finds so
many uses in the home that no one
should be without it.

But because we have to accept
a raw deal from the New Deal,
we do not have to pretend that
we like it, as some Negroes are
doing. Some colored folks are gift
ed that way: if they cannot do
anything about it, they just pre-
tend that they are in love with
it, and let it go at that. It is a
child's make-believe; or at best
at lodging of responsibility, for
by pretending to like it, the slack
er defends himself against any
bodys asking him to do anything
about it. I have even had Negroes
who have to live in Mississippi to
tell me: Mississippi is not so
bad" But every sane person who
knows Mississippi, knows that it
is the worlds nearest approach to
hell, so far as black people are
concerned.
The Ku Klux Klan is PRIMAR-
lily an anti-Negro organization,
especially committed against any
thing like equal citizenship rights
for American Negroes. Here,
again, easy-going Negroes like to
kid themselves: "The Ku KluX
Klan are not only against Ne
groes," they exclaim unctiously,
"but against Jews, Catholics and
Foreigners" Bosh! After the
Klan got started and wanted to
take in new territory so as to
collect more membership dues,
only then did it think of the Jew
and others. The Klan was resur-
rected to put down the aspirations
of Negroes, especially since the
black troops were expected back
from France and suspected of no.

Iced tea has always been a popular

of it if served too often. Here is a
recipe for Grape Iced Tea which is de-
cidedly different, yet truly refreshing.

8 teaspoons tea.
3 cups boiling water.
cups pure grape Juice.
tablespoons sugar
Juice of two lemons.
Pour the boiling water over the tea, cover
closely and allow to stand fifteen minutes. Then
strain, add sugar, lemon juice and the pure
grape juice. Chill thoroughly. Some hostesses
prefer to omit the lemon juice, just adding the
pure grape juice to the iced tea.
