FROM AN OLD SCRAPBOOK The Rev. Maltbie Davenport Babcock buomits this from his mother's scrapbook, fount! he writes, after her death. It seems especially comforting: "Why be afraid of Death, as though your life were breath? Death but anoints your eyes with clay, glad surprise! Why should you be forlorn? Death only husks the corn.

"Why should you fear to meet the Thresher of the Wheat? Is tleep a tiling to dread? Yet sleeping, you are dead 'till you awake arid rise, here, or skies. beyond the WEEK IN WASHINGTON By GARRET WH1TES1DE It would apparently not moke any difference if Congress stayed in session the full 12 months of the year, there would still be the same jam, rush and confusion that always exists. Matters that should have been attended to before are left until the closing days and then a desperate effort is made to attend to them. Some times this taken advantage of confusion is In the closing days when there is so much hurry, there is quite often efforts made to high pressure legislation through that might not get through in ordinary times. It is time for a great deal of trading.

Some of the reasons alleged to be the cause of the Supreme court knocking out some measures is the hurried attempt to enact the legislation without enough care being taken. It is a made-to-order situation for filibusters, although these tactics are not resorted to as much now as in the days when there were short sessions which had to expire on March 4th. However, even now, the threat of a filibuster has weight. It affected the consideration of the anti-lynching bill, which was recently put over until the next session. Despite the, excitement over the closing days of the session, the big news was over the confirmation of Senator Hugo Black, of Alabama, to the Supreme court, lie was confirmed by the overwhelming vote of 63 to 16.

'There was never any doubt as to his being confirmed, although some of the opposition press would have you think so. About the greatest objection urged to the Alabama senator was his liberal leanings and following the President and tKe New Deal. Some of the opposition press would have had folks believe that it was unusual for there to be any opposition to Senator Black. As a matter of fact, there is always opposition in confirmations to the Supreme court. Senator Black, himself as a senator voted to oppose the confirmation of Chief Justice Hughes, and John J.

Parker. Hughes was confirmed. Parker was not. It is thought that perhaps the late Senator Robinson had he been nominated to the bench, would have been the only one who would not have had some opposition. Some of those who favored the court in a recent Supreme court battle, their records show, were against the confirmation of some of the justices.

In the next issue we hope to give a brief history of the accomplishments of the session just ended While perhaps not as has been done as should "Why should it be a wrench to leave your wooden bench?

WATCH TELEVISION People have been told so often that television is "not far off" that they discount the progress actually made. "So clear (ire the televis- ioned pictures," says a current account of this new industry, "that the motion of the second-hand of an ordinary watch, life-size, is clearly visible several feet away.

It is possible to read the aerial number of a dollar bill (also life-size) at a distance as great as normal eye-contact." It's a new industry opening vast possibilities. But at present, with a considerable amount of experimental television 'broadcasting, there are said to be only about 100 General and enjoyment of One important bill agreed upon in the closing hours was the bill to stop tax evasions by the rich.

Many of its objectives were fine, but there was a fear a it might do to the industry of the South in the form in which it passed the. senate. The sugar quota bill continues the present arrangement and under which the present sugar quotas and prices have been operating has been passed.

The last deficiency bill carries an amendment covering the so- called gentlemen's agreement between the president and the congress to make cotton loans and subsequent subsidy payments on cotton, if congress takes up crop qontrol legislation next session. The senate has already agreed to give crop control legislation priority at the next session. No price has been agreed upon loans at the time of writing 1 of this column. Senator Hat.tie W. Caraway does not speak often in the senate, although she does very much in the committees, where the vast majority of the legislation is framed.

When she does speak in the senate, she has perhaps bolter attention any. other senator.

But still available at the war deportment are some nifty bargains--for-the-asking in: Seventy-five i i French guns, six-inch trench mortars, five inch seacoast guns, models, three-inch field gur. and carriage and a three-inch caisson and gun limber.

The caisson and limber, for instance, wuigh 2,530 pounds, while the 4.7 inch gun and ils carriage run up lo 7,420 pounds.

But the real difference doesn't come in the mode of dancing as it does in the way a hill- man can handle a fiddle. A mountain player holds his fiddle firmly against his side and plays with only a few inches of his bow. He tunes anew for any change of key and its a "sorry player" who observes a rest or a pause.

The fiddler blends, his whole being in the monotonous swing, as sweet and sure and incessant us the rhythm of falling water and, always, there is the steady pat of the foot. Deep in the gayest tunes lie plays there is, to me, an undertone of spirit of the irrevocable and as inevitable as death. Maybe it's my fancy or imagination. Hut America will lose much when the art has died as it is doing at a very rapid rate. The true fiddler Is almost us rare as a side saddle.
