There were some strange and sur
prising things about that Senate
committee vote. For instance, there
was the fact that the unfavoraible re-
port for the good roads bill was NOV
cd by Senator John d. Larkins, Jr.,
who prior to convening of the legis-
iature made a number of public ad-
dresses in which he opposed diver
sion and predicted passage of a con-
stitutional amendment banning it
Then there was the bald misstate-
r1ent of Senator Joe Blythe's vote
which appeared in the Raleigh News
Observer. This paper listed the
Mecklenburger as voting for the un-
favorable report, when on the con-
trary he voted against it. He assured
your correspondent of this yesterday
and reiterated his unchanged oppcsi-
tion to diversion.
Then there were several other SEN
ators who were expected to vote for a
favcrt l@le report and did not do
so-among them Gold of Guilford,
Mcintyre of Robson and Thomas of
Harnett.
And most surprising Of al, why
were Umstead and. Lumpkin absent
when the. vote was taken and why
couldn't Hatcher get even one Sena-

 The 52 men in Henry's ward were typical Some merely had flesh wounds, some had lost arms, some legs-but none had lost ap- petites. So when the bugle sounded this twenty fifth of December, the ward awakened eagerly,

 Every time someone kisses under he mistletoe berry should be 1ucked from the branch, for only ;u many blessings are bestowed as here are berries And don't let the nisiletue fall 10 the ground. Other gise ifs properties of good luck and ealing will be destroyed.

 A Scandinavian god. Balder, .rcamed he would die When he old his mother. the goddess Friga, she made earth fire. air. water and lr animals and plants promise they wouldn't harm her Son
 Bu, she overlooked the mistletoe, for it's roots were neither in the earth nor air. So one of Raiders enemies fashioned an arrow from the plant and that was the end of Balder The tears of the heartbro- ken goddess fell thick and fast, and froze into the berries that we find un mstetoe today
 
 Having such heather origin. mistletoe is seldom included in church schemes of decoration. But despite this ban few maids care to risk making the legend come true that she who is not kissed under the mstletoe at Christmas will not be married in the year which fol- lows"
