When she returns to Washing

it somewhat less hectic than when
she first went there as the wife OF

ago. she lost % pounds in weight.
The initiation of a Congress-

She must take no thought OF her

Constable Races

Both parties, Democrats and Re-

Constable races in the various Lin
coin county townships in Tues
days election.
The official vote wasn't tabulat-
ed today as The Times went to
press. However, Elections Board
Chairman j. Robt. McNeely re-
ported that on the basis of unoffi-

candidates won in Ironton and
North Brook townships. the Dem

last-minute instructions, for the
parents were to spend the night at
Hotel Charlotte. near the Jonas
headquarters, to receive the re-
turns as they came in from over
The district, to be near party
workers and we'll -wiShers who
wished them near as the votes
were tabulated, and so that Cam
didate Jonas would be available
for radio and television inter-
views. and to make his election
statement.
Breakfast over, and Charles
and Dick off to school as on any
other day, Charles Raper Jonas
sat down to read the morning
paper. He noted that experts
predicted he would win again.
He erunted. It's easy for "ex-
Perts" TO sit off in Washington
or New York and casually call
the hand Of local voters: but
only a man on the scene can
accurately evaluate the peculiar
ingredients of the local situa-
tion.
Weather. for one thing, could
be deciding factor. And the boys
in New York or in Washington
sid not make the weather. Tradi-
tlonally, the Republicans - and
Mr.. Jonas is a Republican-are
stronger in the rural areas. And
bad weather affects the rural vote
noreSo than it does the urban
urn out.
AFTER BREAKFAST
Charles Raper Jonas glanced
through the window at the threat
ening skies and the gloomy day
He thought about the snow re-
ports from Avery and Mitchell
He thought about how the Demo-
Gratis III those two counties had
withdrawn their tickets in an eff
fort to keep the vote at home
realizing that many Republicans
wouldn't bother to visit the polls

position. Ard Mr.. Jonas knew
that he needed all those Republi-
can votes he could get, to balance
against the Democratic votes ir

against the determined Democra
tic opposition in his own county
Of Lincoln.
He sighed and turned to his
mail. There were notes of en-
cOuragement from many of his
colleagues in the House, coming
in by post from all over the
country. And there was a tele-
gram from President EisenhOw-
er. wishing him success. The

Charles Raper Jonas woke
up in sweat. The dream had
been too vivid. Could it be an
cmen of defeat on this Day of
Days? He looked out his bed
room window and studied the
dark and sOmber skies. A cold
rain was falling. and it had
cOagulated in the driveway in
little needles of ice.
Then the though came to him.
il had been back in 1880, when
his father was seeking a second
term in Congress: The cold and
the rain had descended upon
Western North Carolina, barr
ing hundreds of freeholders from
the polls. and the elder Jonas
had been unsuccessful in his sec
ond bid. Would history be repeat
ec for the son ON this Tuesday
Election Day of "a years later?
Just before he retired Monday
night, Mr.. Jonas had learned that
it already was showing in Avery
County. And he was to learn this
morning that the beautiful and
treacherouS flakes were falling in
Mitchell.
DAY BEGINS
But, now. he thrust such
thoughts from his mind, put on
fresh shirt and tailored
smile. and summoned his family
ID breakfast.
There was no bantering in the
Jonas household as the four took
their places at the table. There
vas no discussion of politics or
elections or future plans, except
those which have been routine
since family life was established
For the two boys, Charles and
Lick, it was an average school
day. They must stop dawdling at
the table or they would be late for
classes. Mrs. Jonas had to lay
out their shirts and socks to save
time. And they must be given

called to lend their moral sup
port.
There were no "crank" phone
calls and no cruel letters.
At $3.50 a. m. Charles Raper
Jonas called upstairs to his wife,
Annie Elliott, and informed her it
was about time to go vote. Short
ly afterward, she hurried down,
bundled against the weather, and
the two of them set off for the
courthouse to cast their ballots.
AT THE POLLS
A fair-SiZed crowd was on hand
al the box as the Jonases APP
preached. A WBTV camera man
vas there to record their visit for
later showing. A colleague was
doing the same thing in Char
lotte, where Judge and Mrs. Sed-
berry cast their votes.
There was no joking nor bant-
ering as the Jonases filled out
their Slips. Some friendly folk
came up after the slips were de-
poSited and uttered Well-WisheS.
But some OF them just look
ed at us with sympathy in their
eyes." said Annie Elliott Jonas.
Back home, the weather was no
warmer, but the sun came out in
spots.
PREDICTS LOSS
maybe that's a good omen,"
Annie Elliott told C. r. But he
just plopped into an easy chair.
He wasn't feeling SO good at the
stomach. Probably nervous ten
sion. The sky was still black to
the west. He predicted he would
lose!
Somebody came by the Jonas
House to report q real OF imagined
voting irregularity. Mrs. Jonas
looked perturbed and worried. But
Mr.. Jonas said: Don't let it up
set you, Annie Elliott. 1 think
there's more good in people than
padI'
I'll be glad when it's all over"
she said quietly. She was laboring
under tension all her own.
Is this worth all the agony? A
visitor put the question to her.
Il know Charlie is striving con-
ScientiouSly to contribute some
thing to our country and the
world" she began; and then the
mother in her emerged impulsive-
ly: But. it's hard - from a fam
ily viewpoint. We don't have the
companionShip we once had; but

schools in towns of unfamiliar

grow up in a hurry"
| Mrs. Jonas strives to keep her
two boys-a siXth-grader and an
eighth -grader-from feeling any
different from others of the same
age. They ere not allowed them
selves unduly in public. They have
not been allowed to appear on
television, with one exception.
That was on the eve of this week S

the two boys be allowed to appear

Bob, a bachelor, in payment of a
debt Bob owed him Ted put the
check in his pocket intending to
cash it when he went to town the
following Monday. Sunday after
noon Bob dropped dead from a

cash the check at the bank the fol-

payment by the bank.
How should Ted go about getting
his money?
Ordinarily a probate Of Bob's es-
tate would be initiated shortly at
ter his death by one of his relatives
or by the executor of Bob's will.
Ted himself Gas CREDITOR could
petition for letters of administra-
ton himself if no one else did
But assuming, as would ordina-
rily be the case that a probate was
started by someone else, Ted would
have to present his claim for the
$500 in a certain way If he would
want it to be paid He would have
to prepare a statment of his claim
in full and then swear to it before a
notary, including a statement that
the deceased party was justly IN
debted to him in the amount of $500
and that no payments were made
thereon which we're not credited,
and that there were no offsets.
He would then have to serve a
coup of this claim signed by him
self and the notary public, on the
administrator or his attorney. and
file the original copy in the county
clerks office within six months from
the date that the notice in the
newspaper was first given to credi-
tors to file claims If this Is not
