FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1916

HERE WE ARE in the middle of September. 1t
is not yet autumn just September, which can be as
hot and humid mid July and as chilly as late Oct
ober. 1t usually manages to give a combination
of both. Flowers still bloom in September; but leaves
begin TO turn and fall to the earth September as
perverse and indecisive as March, but it is much
easier TO live with Its chlliest evenings require only
light fire TO take the chill from a room; and ITS
switch to summer weather can be with the use
of clothing still kept ready for the emersen-
cy. Some of its days among the best in the year
Youngsters have their grudge against it; but so do
the teachers. Farmers like September, for It marks
the seasons end and another cycle completed Shocks
of corn and yellow pumpkins will dot the landscape
before September's gone. The woodlands will begin
70 take on their annual blaze of color and autumn
beauty. Scientists can explain September in terms OF
the shifting and the eqinox. That's all very WE'LL
but September is more than thirty days of weather
It's break in the season, turning point in the
year. It's the forerunner of October-OCtober 10
us, the finest month of our whole long year

BALTIMORE, Dec. 14.-The State

Mr.. Kenmore said the commission

power is necessary.
Only under a very broad inter.
probation of the present law could
the commission certify suitable

Nurses and neighbors led and car

Mckinney On
BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
Americas Card Authority

Tobias Stone, one of New York
outstanding players, has just re-
turned after several years over
seas. He was telling me that he
played a little bridge in Paris
with Gen. Robert Gill, who is still
over there at the Nuremberg trials.
Stone said he held the South
cards in today's hand. He had
been holding very poor cards dur
ing the evening, and this was his
first good hand. So when East
came along and bid seven clubs,
Stone just went right on to seven
spades. His five-diamond bid of
course was a Blackwood response
showing one ace.
He won the first trick in dummy
with the ace of diamonds, cashed
the ace of clubs and ruffed his
losing club. Then he had to take
four rounds of spades to pick up
Vests trumps. After that all he
had to do was cash the king of
hearts and take the heart finesse.
I said, IT suppose you took that
finesse with fear and trembling."
NO." he replied, "you don't
worry about a little thing like a
heart finesse after a couple of
years in Europe"

Vote Today

Having registered when the new vot-
mo lists were compiled, the residents
Of New Hanover county thus entitled
to cast ballots are urged to go to the
polls today and exercise their fran
chise in a free election
It is we'll to emphasize that While
the election is only a primary, it is
quite as important as a regular cleo
ton in which candidates are finally
selected for the offices they seek. To
the extent that a primary determines
who the candidates shall be, it is ever
more important.
AS candidates who poll the highest
number of votes are elected, however
few ballots are cast, and primary vot-
ers must decide which among them
shall have an office, it is in
cumbant upon the voters to turn
out in force that the men final
ly selected shall represent the ma
jority. Otherwise minority rule, which
has so often prevailed, will be repeat
ed with all its ~deplorable consequences
The United States is one of the
few nations in which free elections
may still be conducted. The people en-
joying this right are in duty bound
to exercise it, lest they too ultimately
lose it. Let no eligible voter, physical
ly capable of visiting the polls today.
fail to play his part in this important
primary election.

Strike Against Strikers

almost a 100 per cent shutdown"
Thus the Association of American
Railroads yesterday described the sit
uation in the rail strike.
If it continues only for a few days,
damage the strike will cause is literal
ly incalculable. If it's life is extended
it will create general Generalization.
The railroads will operate what
trains they can get crews for, but for
the present at least the best they can
hope to do will be a pitiful fraction
of the 1880 passenger and $4,000
freight trains c~ustomarily in motion
in the country daily.
As the striking enginemen and
trainmen have rejected a reasonable
increase in pay, the operating compa-
MES would be fully justified in striking
against these brotherhoods, refusing
to negotiate with them further, strike
their names from, payroll lists and
employ any person capable of perform
ing the service they have quit, in
dependent of union contracts.
Aside from special privileges
awarded labor by the Wagner Act,
one reason major unions have had such
sway over industry has been because
industry throughout the wal and since
has made concessions beyond the point
of reason and so created a belief
among labor leaders that they are
greater than industry = greater than
the government. If they are allowed
to continue in this belief it will be but
a short time before they control the
country completely.
The railroad operating companies
now have opportunity to break this
up. 1t would be for them to hire whom
they wish. If any trainmen and en-
glneers were willing to go back to
work on the operators terms there
seems no good reason for refusing
tnem employment provided they cast
off labor's yoke.
II the railroads declare the two de-
partments that struck will be operated
as open shops, and fight it out on this
lne' however long it takes, the cruel.
GRIPPING, indefensible grip of labor
will be broken.

Third Auto Price Hike

For the third time the Office of
Price Administration announces ad-
vances In the cost of new automobiles.
Some consolation, offered prospective
buyers, is the OPA's assurance that
this will be the last increase until
actual operating experience at normal
volume is available"
AS the situation now exists these
new advances will not be greater than
purchasers a pay without great sac
rifice. They will range from S33 on
Chevrolets TO 1857 on Lincolns. If a
reasonable monthly payment plan is
available and the increase divided
among the total the buyer need only
cut his tobacco consumption q fraction
to pay the increase.
At the same time the automotive
industry through its great sales organ
i~zations will have to be alert to SEQ
that no black market money is added
to the ceiling price. This will be narti-
cularly important when new cars first
reach the market and the temptation
to pocket a hundred or two dollars on
the side will be ~magnified by the will
ingness of well-heeled and unscrupu-
lous persons to add folding money to
the check they stand ready to issue
in full payment of q car.
Reputabel dealers naturally would
not countenance such a practice, but
because it has come to light that in
many parts of the country many used.

A MEMORY
By WILLIAM r. ELLIS

Memory plays strange tricks
upon us, often obscuring the i'm
portant and significant, and light
ing up the trivial. Thus, 1 have
held wildly in mind for fifty years
the biting remark of al older boy,
son of an elder, as he saw me,
with other boys. rolling down a
bank in the church-yarG. after
Sunday School: You are a pretty
Christian"
I was eleven years old at the
time, and a few months earlier I
had been received into the church
With the careless and cruel criti-
cism of youth, the elders son
tainted me with unChristian con-
duct. l assumed that he was right
in his condemnation, and the sting
ing sentence burned deep. A Chris
tan boy should lot roll on the
grass on the Sabbath day!
Whenever 1 hear folk criticisina
Christians for trivial practices nf
which they disapprove, 1 recall
that summer Sunday afternoon. ~

know that they r wrong. as that

marines of the dire straits it was LA
BILE to be in and as a consequence the
marines have the situation, in very
truth, we'll in hand.
1t happened this way. When a rail-
road strike appeared inevitable Post
master Wilbur Dosher got in touch
with Camp Lejeune. Forthwith a con-
ference followed among Mr.. Dosher,
a Camp Lejeune officer, and Superin-
tendant of Mails O. C. Hill to deter
mine what could be done to move the
mails in and out of the postoffice.
The result: three great Camp L.
jeune trucks with six marines aboard
backed up to the postoffice loading
platform yesterday morning, to trans
port mail matter between Wilmington
and Rocky Mount, with stops at way
stations en- route.
There will be some delay, probably,
in mail deliveries, but no Interruption
in the service.
The marines have the situation well
in hand. And so far as Wilmington is
concerned the marines are Camp Le-
jeune.
Certainly the city has reason to
be, and heartily is, deeply grateful to
the marines.
