Washington As the political campaign progresses, it becomes in- creasingly clear that President Roosevelt is not going to declare himself on the third-term issue un- til the very last moment. (See to- days WASHINGTON MERRY-GO- ROUND column on page 6)
 It is remarkable tribute to the reportorial acumen of Drew and Pearson and Robert s. Allen that their WASHINGTON MERRY CO., ROUND column, which appears daily in the Waterbury Democrat, revealed this to be the Presidents strategy nearly three years ago, on July 16, 1887.

Churchill Bragaw Speaks
On Orion, Its Program,
Snakes, Snake Lore

An address on orion Plantation
the program which is being carried
out there, snakes, snake-bite treat
ment and the fallacies of snake lore
constituted the program of the Ro-
tary club yesterday afternoon as it
met at the Cape Fear hotel.
The address was made by Church.
i'll Bragaw, horticulturist in charge
of the program being carried out
at Orion plantation who has beer
Of considerable assistance to Viii
mingtonians working on the program
of identifying Greenfield Lake drive.
At the request of E. l.. White,
president of the club, John Colucci
presided I'VE the meeting, begin
ming a practice of having a member
of the club other than the presi-
dent preside over one meeting Of
the club each month.
Colucci at the opening of the meet
ing announced the beginning of the
Civic League bowling season next
week and introduced M'Kean Maj
fit, superintendent of the city wa
ter works, who urged the Rotarians
to give their wholehearted backing
to the Community Forum this year.
In a time of crisis, such as this,
he said, men are in great need of
information on international and ma
tional affairs which will be dealt
with by the three speakers who have
been secured for the programs of
the Community Forum this year.
Bra2aw was introduced by How
ard Penton, program chairman for
the month.
He told briefly of the program
which has been carried out at Or
ton plantation during the past three
years in which changes have been
made in the famous gardens, the
nursery has been enlarged and a
program of selective tree cutting has
been instituted.
Under the selective cutting pro-
gram, he said, poles and piling are
first cut from a stand of timber.
Then material for the sawmills is
cut and finally a clean up is put
into effect to produce material for
wood pulp, which brings in the
smallest return.
The reason for a selective cutting
program, he said, is that when a
stand Of timber has reached ma
turity, unless some of it is cut, much
of it will die and be a complete loss.
Cutting of the correct amount of
trees from a stand of timber, he
stressed, gives the remaining timber
sufficient light, air and room for
continued growth, without which it
dies and is worthless.
He told of the pl--Eting of exotic
plants at Orion and said that de-
spite the fact the past winter was
one of the most severe in so wears. |

Crock Hill, S. c.. Herald)

w. W. (Andy) Anderson, native
of Greenwood and well known in
Carolina newspaper circles where
he worked before going to New
York, has used the famous lights
of Brown Mountain near Ashe-
vile. N. c., as the background for
a mystery novel, xii One, Kill
Two" civilian Morrow ana Coz
which made it's appearance today.
Anderson, incidentally, has visited
in Rock Hill and knows a good
many people in this section.
Anderson went to the New York
office of the Associated Press from
the Charlotte APP office. Previous
ly he had worked on papers at
Greenwood, Chapel Hill, N. Che
went to the University of North
Carolina,-Albemarle, N. c., Will

Many people have seer the
lights on Brown Mountain but no
one, not even Uncle Sans wealth
err bureau, has been able to ex-
plain them. To provide an eerie
background for his mystery Andy
calls the location Murder Noun
tain. tying in with the Indian
legend that when the two strange
balls of fire appear over the top
of the mountain they portend
death for someone who sees them.
Anderson has sold a few short
stories, mostly pulp paper de-
~tective Ones, but he's written some
2 1000, 900 words of fiction, he es-
Inmates. He's written three novels
but Kill One, Kill Two" is the
first one to be published. He's at
work on his second mystery.
kill One, Kill Two has to do
with two mid-western public utili-
ties magnates, n of whom ac-
cuses the other of trying to wreck
his business. One of the men in
vites the other and his family to
visit his family and business as
s~ociates in this summer home just
outside of Asheville, N. C. 1t is
there that the emit re action takes
place; there that the whole prob
lem is Strengthened out and the
mystery of who is trying to wreck
who-and who eventually murders
who's solved.
The acceptance of the book was
a minor miracle in publishing bust

many of the plants had survived
the cold weather.
He urged Wilmingtonians to CO.
operate with those identifying
Greenfield Lake drive, saying it is
one of the greatest assets which
this community has.
Turning suddenly from his dis.
cussion of Orion plantation, it's his
tory, flowers and program, he be-
gan to speak of snakes.
There are but four poisonous
snakes in the Tilted States, he
said, only three Of which are at all
common and only two of which are
sufficiently poisonous to be deadly.
These latter two, he said, are the
rattlesnake and the cotton mouth
moccasin.
He told of many misconceptions
about snakes and said it is not
true that:
/. A horse hair in q watering
trough al turn into a snake.
2. There is any hoop snake"
which takes its tail in it's mouth
and rolls down the hills.
3. The spreading adder is harm
full.
4. Any type Of snake can milk a
COW.
He displayed a king snake and
a chicken snake, told of their hab-
its and how they can be identified,
He then displayed a comprehend

( those years DeMar was always the
favorite to win. He would come ALONG
at an easy stride with handkerchief
tied about his head. The many peoule
would always cheer him along: for
then as now, he was very popular with
the crowd. There as that very con-
/ tagious smile Of his or perhaps lust
ave Of his hand at the crowd which
gave the people the idea that he was
doing alright. Yes-in those DAYS
the man who would win was ALWAYS
the man who could beat DeMar on
that particular day. But times have
changed a great deal now. That
youthfulness has gone from him and
in its wake II has left him with legs
that can't respond to the dictates Of
his mind. The inevitability of time
has taken its toll. What was once so
great is now but a shell Of its former
self. But after all that-he is still a
great runner, for in spite of his noun
ting years he keeps going. No matter
where you chance TO watch this race
Of races the feeling among the crowd
is always the same. Regardless Of
their own likes or favorites for the
.race-they always reserve many and
loud cheers for the man who Just won't
give up. As somebody in the long
lines that stretch endlessly along the
course shouts-"here comes ONE
and as people crane their necks to get
his number so as 10 identify him, there
Is always that feeling that it may be
Clarence Dehar-cOming home first
probably for the last time. But then.
the number is gotten and all dreams
Of such are broken. It's some young
fellow coming in for the first time.
There are cheers for him to be sure
but they seem like disappointed cheers.
Then comes another runner and still
another and another-and vet no sight
Of the idol. But alas, there is heard
loud cheering all along the way which
can only mean that DeMar is on his
way. The minutes which follow seem
like hours-then finally away off in
the distance can be seen one who is
evidently having hard time of it. At
long last he comes nearer and nearer
and with each approaching step the
din gets louder and louder. And so
he goes all along his way to the tempo
Of cheering which none of the others
received.
After he passes-the crowd is ready
TO 60 home for their hopes have been
answered-DeMar once again has
proven himself TO be the one man who
can master those long miles. Yes
the marathon is over for another
year but still people everywhere are
still wondering about the same thing
when will Clarence DeMar quit"
Just what he thinks of it nobody is
able TO say for his only answer is that
he doesn't know. And so it is that the
man who has thrilled many all down
through the years just keeps going
ike Of man river.
