WINE-Announcement by the
State news bureau that the Garrett
Company had bought 500 acres OF
Ind in eastern North Carolina for
the purpose Of planting an extensive
vineyard, and the avowed purpose of
later constructing winery on the
property. recalls some of the past
history of North Carolina in grape
culture. The whole eastern half of
the state is especially adapted to the
growth of grapes and in the early
years OF this century grape culture
was an important industry in the
sand hills around Aberdeen, and of
almost equal consequence around
Laurinburg and Lumberton. Long
years before that there had been
profitable vineyards in the Albe-
marie section.

endment TO the federal Constitution
and the Volstead act virtually put
these vineyards out of business. en-

ing the fresh grapes or for preserv-
ing drying, Or otherwise converting
them into merchandise which was
legal under the volstead regime. =
OMEN--The fact that as respon-
able firm as Carrot Is now invest
ing large sums OF money In an evil
dent attempt 10 revive the industry
in this section indicates that Garrett
does not expect a return to the fan
atheism Of the prohibition era. More
Than that, il gives tangible evidence

PRIVILEGE-Therc have been in
Stance-at least it has been charged
that some employers have actll-
ally charged employees for the pri-
vilege of working because the amount
of tips exceeded the normal mini
mum wage schedule. The proposed
new schedule would virtually eli
inmate the good old American Gus
tom Of tipping. Many patrons of rail
roads, hotels and lunch rooms have
all along known that the person
who served them drew relatively
small wages and they have in many
instances been generous with tips.
Some few public eating places have
posted signs asking that no tips be
paid and in even rarer instances SER
vitors have been known to decline
the tip when offered. Upon the
whole. however. il has been accent
ed as general policy for the public
10 pay tips in lieu of the employer
paying wages. If Walling's sugges-
ton is adopted and tipping is elimi-
mated from the computation of min

TlPS-One of the CHER worries of
federal wage-hJur folks has been The
problem OF reconciling tips with min
lmum wage provisions. Railroad rcd
caps and hotel boys particularly have
caused the worry, but walters and
waitress. filling station attendants,
shoe shine boys. and all the list of
workers who by tradition and Gus
tom expect and receive tips are in

dispatch, stating that Metcalfe Wall

Fighting Mans Friend
Tell Draft Board
OF New Address

A. J. B.: Q-My husband was
visiting in the south during the
first draft and he registered down
there but asked them 10 transfer
him here. Last year his question
naire went down there and had
to be mailed here.
He filled it out and took II To
the draft board here and asked
them about the transfer and they
promised to see about il, but his
classification also came TO the
address in the south.
He is in ga. Should he 90 TO
the draft board or just wait until
he is called? Could he get into
trouble and be called a dodger?
A-Obviously, when he regis
tered he must have given an
address In the south as his home
address, otherwise his question:
naire could not have been
mailed TO a southern address.
Hence, he il now registered
with the southern board and it
is too late for him 10 do any
thing about changing boards.
Nor IL IL essential that he be
registered with a local board.
However, he must write to the
local board I'm the south with
which he Is registered and in
form them Of his present adj
dress, Immediately.
Then, II and when they wish
10 reach him for an examina-
tion this will be done through
one of the local Detroit boards.
There Is no reason he should be
penalized for what has hap
pened inasmuch as he has made
a sincere attempt 10 keep In
touch with proper draft officials.
j. L. M: A-This should be re-
ported to the mans local draft
board. If his local board is not
known, then ii should be reported
to selective service officials on the
floor, Book Tower, with
complete information on the mans
address, etc.
A WORRIED WIFE: All
these questions would have to be
by your husbands draft
board.

ASKS BLIND OBEDIENCE

IL don't mean that we have
any idea Just now OF where
Marion Is hidden" he said, "but
we are nearer to knowing than
we have ever been since she dis
appeared.
But and his pause made
the word significant. 'ff 1 am TO
succeed In finding her, and IN
capturing the master spider In
this far-fiung web, I must have
cooperation yes, and blind
obedience-from every one of
you. Marion's life may depend
upon that. Therefore i am ask
ing you to do the thing shall
now designate, no matter how
much your inclination rebels
against It."
Lillian waited before answering
him. her face set in lines Of pain
and obstinacy. Then she capitu
lated royalty. as she always does
when she yields a point.
II don't know TO what I am
committing myself" she SAID.
''but-I'll be a good soldier, as
/ can see Harry has been"
when Harry Is In such
shape that you can leave him."
my father told her. switch
ought to be In two or three days
now, 1 wish you TO go down to

few days"
Her face was suddenly drained
Of all color.
"The farm" she repeated me-
chanically. leave here-where
any word from Marion must
come"
That Is where you are mis-
taken" my father retorted.
"No authentic word from
Marion is coming here-or any
where else-for quite a while.
Give me credit for knowing
something of the mental pro-
cesses of these-Pd call them
hyenas, but I'd have to apollo
gize to the animals.
"The only messages that are
coming here" he said. "are lying
ones, designed 10 lead you into

they could get hold of you too,
they would play upon MarlOn's
love for you and yours for her
In trying to get the informa-
ton which they enormously be-
lieve you have?"
