IIL U •T E ia c o o ie â M e ^ VOLUME XXViil County News For Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. С., iFiBIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1946 “All The County News For Everybody”NO. 47 SAYS AVERAGE CAFE PATRON DOES NOT CARE HOW SLOPPY PLACE IS (Ordinarily this newspaper does not print letters unless it Is known who writes them. We are, however, prlntlpg the one below because one local cafe owner has privately complained about the matter referred to in the letter and perhaps took this means of stating his side of the case. Kdltor.) Kditor, Mocksvllle Enterprise Mocksvllle, North Carolina. Dear Sir: In your paper last week you say much about the restaurants and eating places In Davie coun ty. You say the people have continually grumbled about bad conditions. Have the people who eat in these places ever thought a moment about them selves? Has It ever occurred to them that they don’t try to keep things looking very good them selves? They come into a place and spend 35c and when they »re through there's peanuts, pa per, cigarette butts and slop all about the counters and floors. If containers are placed about for their convenience. It would do no good because they don’t care how sloppy the place looks. You .say there is excellent op portunity hero, you believe, for somebody to establish a clean, up-to-date place to eat. Well, I claim it would not be clean long unless one person spent ail the time picking up after customers and if one person has to be hired to do this all the time, it’s going to cost the customer more than he wants to pay. The average per.son in Davie county don’t re spect clean floors. He’ll drop his cigarette on the clean lino leum and scrape it with his foot quicker than he will walk across the floor, or even reach across the table. If the Health Department,is going to squeeze down on res taurant and lunch stand opera tors, why don’t he squeeze down on the patrons too? There’s a whole lot more involved in this nuatter than Just one man. You can write this up If you want to as coming from a per son who sees the picture from more than one view and who sympathizes with the fellow who is trying to run an eating place. A CITIZEN LE6I0N MEMBERS DISCUSS NEW BUILDING AND AUXILIARY Members of the Davie Ameri can Legion post 134 discussed a clubhouse last Friday night at the courthouse, a project of long standing which was interrupted by war. It was one of the larg est meetings in years. C. F. Meroney, Jr., and Ray mond Foster were added to a committee composed of E. C, Morris and Grady Ward to got an architect’s drawing ot the proposed building and an esti mate of cost. Formation of a legion auxiliary was also discussed and the ad jutant, Dr. P. H. Mason, was in structed to write Mrs. Wade Hen dricks of Statesville, district aux iliary head, and arrange for her to appear hero to aid in the cre ation of an auxiliary. A number of welcoming speeches by older legionnaires to new members who served in World War 2 were made. Legion Auxiliary Will Be Formed Members of the local Ameri can liCg-ion post, their wives, ■Inuii'liters .mrt sisters arc iisked to attend a meeting in the courthouse here on Thursday evening, Feb, 7, at 7:30 p. m . for the purpose of organizing a legion auxi liary. Mrs, Wade Hendricks of Statesville, national execu tive eommittewoman of the auxiliary, will-be present to explain the details.

EDITOR MAKES REPORT ON HIS TRIP TO THE PRESS MEETING Twice a year the editor and his wife attend mootings of the N, C, Press asiioclation. Those meetings are to discuss mutual problems, hear interesting speak ers talk on currcnt topics and rub elbows with friends. Last week the winter meeting was hold at Chapel Hill and Duke. Fred Vinson, secretary of the treausry, was the main spieaker Thursday night and ho said it was necessary for this country to make the proposed loan to Britain for our own eco nomic protection in the future. Otherwise, he said, we wuld lose foreign markets and endanger peace in the world. Meanwhile we help a war ally that must have help and at the same time get interest on the loan. At the Friday luncheon moot ing at Chapel Hill there were two speakers. William R. Devlin, executive secretary of the Ad visory Reconversion Board, told of the economic opportunities of the south and southeast and Mark Sauer, celebrated humr- 1st and country editor from Leesburg, Ohio, wound up the luncheon with a spcech that kept everybody in stitches. The president of the association, Harvey Laffoon ot Elkin, wanted some half-wit to introduce Mr. Sauer and the editor of the En terprise was asked to comply— which he did. Mr. Sauer displayed a full page ad which he ran in his paper after the Dionne quints were born in which he offered a $10,- 000 prize for the first quints born in his town of 800, The story was picked up by the metropol itan papers and radio announc ers, bringing much publicity to the town. One of the catch- phrases in the ad was a line which read: "Why send your business to Canada. Patronize the home market.” The humor ist admitted that If a miracle of quints had been born In his burg, ho would have been forced either to declare bankruptcy, leave town or shoot himself. At the Duke dinner meeting, which featured fllot mlgnon (Inch-thick steak), Robert Mc Lean, president of the Associ ated Press and publisher of the Philadelphia Bulletin, criticized the inclusion of nows In the for eign Informational services to bo established in 29 countries by our state department on the grounds that it would be con sidered propaganda and not ob jective reporting. Glenn Babb, foreign editor of the Associated Press, who spent years in the Orient, said a free press was one of the best means of preserving peace In this atomic age and (Continued on pace 8) DR, W. M. LONG IS ROTARY SPEAKER Dr, W. M. Long, recently dis charged from service, explained the details of physical exami nation for those Inducted into military service at Tuesday’s meeting of the Rotary club, ‘‘There were many mistakes made at the beginning and it took a long time to evolve a system which was efficient,” he said. In one center, he stated, the rate of examination in the early stages of the war was less than 200 daily. Later it rose to 850, together with considerably less personnel required and im proved techniques. One of the discoveries which speeded up efficiency and In creased morale was a series of humorous cartoon slides show ing the various stages of exam ination for service. Dr. Long showed these slides, portraying a scene at each station where the inductees appeared. Dr. Long advocated universal military service as a means of preventing another war. Curtis Price was in charge of the program and Bill Penning ton presented Dr. Long because of the necessary absence of Mr. Price.

ALFRED MORDECAI District Helath OHicer A certain lunchroom operator, peeved over the results of a re cent inspection of his place by the Sanitarian, has privately In quired whether the liealth de partment expects to tell Davle county restaurant and cafe men how they shall operate their places of business. The answer, sir, Is No! The health department Is merely the agent for John Q. Public, your local district board of health and the North Caro lina State Board of Health. The health department has an offi cial employee who Is detailed and authorized to make inspections of all public eating places to ascertain whether such places have a proper permit to operate and whether they are complying with the state rules and regula tions. It is the duty of the health department to see that Mr. John Q. Public gets a clean sandwich for his two bits instead ot $200 worth of personal damage in the way of ptomaine poisoning or bloody-flux. The health depart- nuent does not tell the owner how he shall conduct his busi ness. It helps him to learn the rules and regulations. It tells him what will be necessary In the way of equipment and tech nique to meet the regulations. It Inspects periodically to see that the regulations are being followed. If the operator does not meet the requirements, the permit to operate is revoked and the shop closed. That’s all.

Extend Time For Army Reenlistment Important changes In existing regulations for re-enllstment In the Regular Army have been an nounced by the War Depart ment, Lt. Colonel Ralph E. Keyes, commanding ofllcer of the Charlotte District Regular Army Recruiting Station, stated today. The new War Department regulations extends the time In which men can re-enllst and re tain the grade they held when discharged. Experience has shown that most men discharged from the war-time army want more than twenty days to look around again In civilian life be fore deciding what they will do. Colonel Keyes states that dur ing the period from February 1, 1946, through June 30, 1946, men can rejoin the army within nine ty days after honorable dis- ichargi and be enlisted In their present grade. Heretofore sol diers with honorable discharges tdeslrlng to re-enllst In the reg ular army had to do so within twenty days, and prior to Jan uary 31, 194G. Colonel Keyes aslced that ev eryone spread the word to all the army men they know—that the deadline Is now June 30, 194S, and, after February 1, 1946, men have ninety days after dis charge in which to re-enllst and retain their present grade. Elaborating on the general success of the recruiting cam paign, Colonel Keyes pointed out that by far the largest number of enlistees were signing up tor the three year periods. By do ing so, they are.Jiaving their choice of the branch of service and overseas theatre in which they prefer to be stationed. Also family allowances for their de pendents will apply for the full three-year term. SHEFFIELD Mrs. F. V, Beck spent Saturday night with her daughter, Mrs. Austin Shaw.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current N. C. Slate College White spots on varnished fur niture may be caused by stand ing water ,hot dishes or alcohol, .Lccording to wood experts and furnishings specialists. If the spots are slight, they may bSTemoved'Simply by rub-' blng with camphorated oil or oil of peppermint—get 10c worth at the drug store. Or they may disappear when the surface of the furniture is washed with a mixture of 1 quart of warm wa ter; 3 tablespoons of boiled lin seed oil, and 1 tablespoon of turpentine: then dried with a soft dry cloth, and rubbed with furniture polish. For more severe white spots a mixture that may be used is salt and salad oil. Dip the finger In oil, then In salt, and rub. Repeat until the spot disappears. Then dry and polish. Or use a paste made of powdered pumice and linseed oil, and rub over the spot with the finger or soft cloth un til the spot disappears. Don’t rub too hard—you might remove the varnish. Maquis Chief Hers A good tailor does not press wool completely dry, for It scorches very easily. Rather, he lifts the wool garment from the pressing board while the last bit of steam Is still rising from It. Then he pats or beats out that little whiff of steam with his hand. This keeps the wool from having a hard-pressed look. It is a good Idea to be partic ular about the cloths usçd for pressing. When using now ma terial for this purpose, wash and rinse it thoroughly so that not a bit of starch or sizing remains. Keep the cloths clean always and wash out every trace of scorch, if by any chance the iron gets too hot, A scorched cloth can discolor the garment underneath, Watauga Dairying, Lambs Hit Upgrade Watagau county farmers In 1945 sold milk for an average of $100,000 more than in 1944 and marketed 2,420 lambs of which more than 44 per cent graded "choice”, it was reported by the county agent, H. M. Hamilton, of Boone, Hamilton said that last year dairy farmers in the county had made “more progress than In any previous year” and attributed the Increased milk sales to Improved pastures and an Increase in the number of farmers who turned to dairying. Principal outlet for milk is the Coble Receiving Sta tion, One hundred and fifty-three more fanners sold milk last year than in 1944. Dairy herds are getting bet ter housing and care than ever before and are furnishing a reg ular monthly Income to a big block of the Watauga farm element, Hamilton added. In dicating that the. erection of many new silos, the production of high-quality legume hay and the establishment of grade A dairies also had contributed to the upswing in the milk business. Of the total number of animals marketed through the county’s lamb pool, 1,076 were “choice” 778 were “good”, 414 were “med ium” and only 6,4 per cent were graded below medium. Phos phates and other Extension Service practices improved pas tures and In turn produced choice meat for which higher prices were received, Hamilton said. Much of the nation’s reserve stock of lumber is depleted and timber production is short of the mark which foresters believe should have been turned out with proper care of woodlands.

A JOKE A DAY “And whose llttio boy are you?’ gurgled the evshy mother to her little boy, "My goodne.ss,” he replied with extreme disgust, "don’t toll me you don’t know!” ”. 1 V" * •yr^,'.rth Curoimei 'PlfEiS ASSOCtAlJO^J A DESERVED TRIBUTE Below is an editorial from the Asheville Citizen which has been sent to us, and which we take pleasure in present ing to our readers. Under the heading A M ODEL DIS PUTE the Citizen says: Recently The Citizen called attention to a strike at the Erwin cotton mills in the Piedmont area which has marred North Carolina’s notably harmonious labor relations. Our relatively well preserved no-strike record has been a source of national admiration. This struggle raised an exception. Yet there are certain compensating features. The strike involves a number of factors in dispute be tween the textile company and the CIO Textile Workers Union, but the chief one appears to be an “incentive sys tem” (as the employers call it), or “stretchout” (as the union terms it) which would Ije the basis of a new contract. Some 5,000 employees have been idle at Durham, Erwin, and Cooleemee for 14 weeks. As for the State’s record in labor relations, the atti tude of both union and company toward the dispute is one compensating feature. Writing in the Raleigh News and Observer, Robert E. Williams remarks upon the absence of any violence or suggestion of violence and terms this condition, “somewhat unique in cotton mill strikes, parti cularly those of 10 years or more ago.” Relations, in fact, are cordial. For example, when the strikers distributed Christmas baskets to union homes wliere sickness was present tliey in cluded the homes of sick mill officials in their rounds. The company for its part has made no move to expel strikers from company-owncd homes and is even supplying coal on credit to those who apply. When pickets (there is picket ing at only one plant) erected tents the company provided electric lights upon request and also furnished coal to heat the tents, On a recent occasion two Erwin Mills vice presi dents joined the strikers in a game of horseshoes. These little incidents have no great bearing on what is a real and grim labor dispute, yet tolerance and humility on both sides tend to relieve the grimness and give a new, somewhat unprecedented, twist to tlie reality of the situa tion. As has been said of v/ar, there was never a good strike or a bad settlement in the sense that nobody suffers at any time. If North Carolina’s only current major strike is re solved, we believe that exemplary conduct on the part,of both union and management will be an important and ■ praiseworthy force in that settlement. Happily, both sides have agreed to resume active negotiations beginning to morrow. SPEAKING OF STRIKES—* Tiiere is one sort of strike for which we wish we could enlist the support of several millions of people who must, like ourselves, he J)ored to a ix»int of desperation. It’s a strike against a number of tilings which one runs into whenever he turns on his radio to get news, entertaining drama, or good music. We refer to the singers with nasal twangs, in noises whicli are supposed to be music; the pa tent medicines which make instantaneous cures of numer ous ills, but which will not pass inspection by the medical association. We are particularly aggrifeved with these when they immediately precede a religious service. Frequently we run from a headache right into a Church service— and which (the ad. we mean) gives us another headache. We wish that some smart man would set the pace for a gradual movement into a Church service which might at least approach it with more dignity and respect. A certain tobacco advertisement has rasped our nerves if not our throats, by its constant repetition of medical testimony. Now, another doctor told us that smoking— oh, well! we don’t want to enter a debate—just express our opinion. CPI..

Alfalfa Gaining As Piedmont Hay Crop By virtue of its high produc tivity and quality alfalfa is fast replacing other hay crops in Wake County and the Piedmont section of t^ie slate. Working in lilio mannar of a self-winding ,watch, alfalfa will reseed Itself from crowns that survive the winter and grow as long as eight years without ad ditional-¿eodlns-by-.4hG-grow8r,- according to H. Bruce Butler, assistant Wake County Agent. Agent Butler describes tiie work of Herbert Jackson, Rt. 4, Raleigh, in seeding 10 acres of alfalfa last Fall as "excellent' and suggests that other planters in tli0 area follow his lead. This is how the Jackson crop was prepared. Tlie land was limed with two tons of dolomatic limestone and seeded to oats in 1944, In Feb ruary, 1945, lespedeaa was seed ed in the oats. The oats were combined and the straw left on the land. The lespedeza and oat straw were thoroughly disced into the soli in September, 1045. Two additional tons of deloml- tic limestone per acre were ap plied after the first discing in September. Three tons of chick en manure were applied to the tract during the fall and added fertilization consisted of 1,200 pounds of 2-12-12 fertilizer with boron, also spread after the first discing. Seeding of the alfalfa was done after thorough discing and harrowing. Usulng a small seed attaoliment and grain drill with the disc running about an inch and a half deep, tlie seed were covered by an inch of soil. The field was cross drilled with 28 pounds of carofully Inocu lated seed to the acre. ______________FRIDAY, FEBEUAltV 1, 1946 COULD ANYTHING BE SWEETER? priority cargo for minesweepers, enabling them to clear waters in Japan’s Inland Sea.

Tar Heel Fishworm Fame Spreads West It's a little early to drag out a fishing story, but the inflated prestige of the North Carolina earthworm — regarded by fresli- water fish as a great delicacy — has spread as far west as Wis consin and it Xalrly wiggles for attention. In the Summer of 1045 R, P. Moore, State College Extension Service agronomist, inspected a corn field on a farm of R, M, Fryar of McLcansville, Guilford County, and was intrigued by the number of "ilshlng" worms he discovered bull -dozing through the soli. Curious and ever on the alert for facts and figures, Moore blocked off small sections of the field, dug a few worms, brought out his slide rule, calculus formulas and divi ded by the square root. Adding a dash of imagination and a jigger of fact, he came up with the conclusion that If bhe field’s earthworm crop were harvest ed instead of the hybrid corn to which it had been seeded, the yield would .be 313 pounds an acre of the finest fish hook cus tomers you ever saw. Figuring this to be a pretty fair country yield of wonns, Moore told the nows boys about it and the story found its way to the Topeka Kansas "Capper's Farmer” whioh enjoys a good circulation. Tlie news was out and Mrs. Matilda Hubbard of Rt, 3, Gleason, Wis,, pounced uix>n worms held commercial possibi lities. She has written Special ist Moore asking for details of growing, harvesting and mar keting wrigglers of Tar Heel quality. While doubtful that the en terprise will reach the interna tional level, Moore, with the help of Farmer Fryar, will attempt to answer Mrs, Hubbard's ques tions. Incidentally, the Fryar field yielded an everage of more than 100 bushels of hybrid corn to the acre. Eire has a tea shortage and visitors are asked to bring their own.

Answer: State AAA men re port the following rates of pay for cover crops seeded with In oculated seed in well-prepared seedbeds. .Crimson clover, 15 cents per pound; hairy vetch, 12 cents per pound; Austrian win ter peas, 5 cents per pound, and annual ryegrass, 8 cents per pound. Question: Is It really better to prepare tobacco plantbeds in the Fall? Answer: Extension Service to bacco speclall,sts say positively “yes". Farmers who prepared beds last Fall and applied cyanl- mld and uramon to kill weeds, though • delayed now by wot weather In planting seed, are far ahead of farmers who must pre pare beds from scratch.

Navy photo. im “Master Race” Query Arises in Poultry Paralleling the theories of the Axis powers in the recent war Is the yet unanswered question In poultry: What Is the "master race” In chickens? The Axis discovered, painfully and at great cost, that there Is no “master race”. Poultrymen of the State College Extension Service are In agreement, too, that there Is no "ultra-superior” strain of chickens, although some breeds have better records thdn others as broilers or egg- layers. R. S. Dearstyne, head of the Department of Poultry Science at State College, says that Ameri can breeds such as Rocks, Reds and New Hampshlres have de sirable qualities as broilers. Leg horns and related American breeds, he adds, are normally better egg producers. It Is the breeding within the stock selected that counts, the poultryman declares, adding: “Because chicks are Leghorns does no necessarily mean that they will produce heavily.” A chick’s quality Is determined by breeding before the egg Is hatched and even good manage ment can not develop quality In a chicken after hatching. “Consequently,” Dearstyne says, “a person starting In poul try work should consider his ob jectives very carefully and In do ing this, consult with the agri cultural advisor In his county as to what the demands of the local market are and thus got tips to the nearest and best sources of stock that will probably meet his needs.” Popcorn Affords Cash On the Side As the farmer sweats out the winter period of bad weather and Income taxes and begins to round out his 1946 crop program, pop corn has popped up as a pros pective source of “cash on the side” from odd spots of land, according to Assistant County Agent V. A. Huneycutt of Al bemarle. Many Stanly county farmers have been growing “several” acres of popcorn during the past two years In meeting contract orders from a large seed com pany, Huneycutt reports. Indi cating that contracts have been renewed this year and tabbing the crop as a “paying enter prise.” The average acre of North Carolina farm land today Is worth about $50 in the market. M.' L. Efird of Route 4, Albe marle, netted an average of $230 per acre for. popcorn grown in 1945, selling the crop at an av erage of about 10 cents per pound. Previously, Eflrd has re ceived 12 cents per pound. While the profit from an acre of popcorn is not fabulous, the growing of the crop is "very lit- FARM NEWS Poultry Feed Sllnation. Poul try and egg markets will appar ently not bo as great a problem with producers during 1940 as will be the feed supply and qual ity. Protein supples will be crit ically short — more so than at any time during the war. The Production and Marketing Ad ministration of the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture has issued an order to restrict the use of protein meal In feeds Immedi ately. The order budgets the use of protehi meals among all users In line with, production, goal.? for. 194G. The U. S. production goals call for a 15 percent reduction In the production of eggs and a 17 percent decrease In the num ber of chickens raised on the. farms. No feed manufacturer may use more protein meal In making poultry feeds than the follow ing percentages of the quantity so used in the corresponding month of 1945; January and February, 1948, 100 percent; March 95 percent; April, 1946, 90 percent; other months In 1946, 85 per cent. The effect of this order should be kept In mind as your feed dealer will doubt less restrict your feed supply In line with this order. Order Chicks Now. The sup ply of the better-grade chicks will necessarily be limited. So order yours now. We would sug gest that a greater percentage of your chicks be hatched early so that they will come Into pro duction In the early summer. By use of lights and wet mash, these early hatched birds can be kept In good production through the higher priced egg season and thereby make you more profit than the later hatched ones even though no neck molt is encoun tered with the later hatched ones. Our egg markets are very Inadequately supplied with fresh eggs during the late summer and fall. Keep Eggs Clean. Add fresh litter on the floor often. Keep the houses as dry as possible. Take up wet litter around water fountains or at the front of the house and replace with dry lit ter. Keep birds confined to the house until 2 P. M. each day, and all day in bad (rainy or muddy) weather. Fix a shallow trough on the perches In front of the nests and keep some dry ground agricultural limestone In the trough so the birds will step in It just before entering the nests. This will help a lot in producing clean eggs. Gather the eggs three times a day, espe cially while the litter Is damp. Tommy, aged sbi, was having dinner with his uncle and aunt and had refused a second piece of strawberry shortcake. “You seem to be suffering from loss of appetite,” said his aunt. “It's not loss of appetite,” he replied. “What I'm suffering from Is politeness.” If there were more sugar this year, there would be more honey for the table.

They discussed better news cov erage, Improvements in adver tising presentations, local news pictures, membership in the ABC for weeklies, A New York advertising representative who handles national advertising for a group of New Jersey weeklies was present and a number of ABC non-dallles signed up with him. One of the interesting side lights to the writer was a con versation with Dr, Frank Gra ham, president of the univer sity, who has spent much time In the last five years In Wash ington as a member of the War Labor Board and chairman of the fact-finding board for the oil industry, pr, Graham thought General Motors offlclal.s made a mistake when they walked out on the fact-fincUng board during strike negotiations. He said the board members told him they did not intend to ask for General Motors books. Ho also «aid his oil board told the oil companies they did not wish to see their books for the simple reason that they would not know what to do with them If they had them. It would require months of accounting work in the first place aitUIn the second place the board was not qualified to handle such mat ters as setting up reserves and depreciation for the oil Industry in order to decide how much wages the companies could af ford to pay. The information the board needed on profits was easily obtained from non-con- fidentlal sources. Dr, Graham thought Phil Mur ray was an able, conservative labor leader and that when he acted unwisely it was when his advisers gave him Incomplete advice. He thought John Lewis was a bull-headed power-seeker who attempted to sweep every body out of his path, A1 Resch, publisher of papers at Siler City and Plttsboro, and his committee announced a new series of annual awards for non- dailies this year.

C., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1946 “AU The County News For Everybody”NO. 48 HEALTH OFFICIAL MAKES COMMENT ON LOCAL RESTAURANT SANITATION By CARL E. SHELL Local Sanitarian For the last few weeks there has been quite a bit of discus sion «n the streets and In the press on the subject of restau rant sanitation. Part of It is in favor of the restiaurant operator and part of it for John Q. Public. This simply bears out the old saying; "There are two sides to every question.” John Q. says that the average restaurant is so fllthy that he hates to eat in It. The proprie tor says that if he did clean his place up it wouldn't stay clean long because of the way John Q. acts when he comes there. He accuses John Q. of “taking" the ash trays that have been pro vided for his convenience, of throwing cigarette butts, peanut hulls, paper, and other trash on his clean floor, and at times of being so nasty as to even spit on the floor. The Sanitarian, being a rep resentative of the Board of Health and an agent for John Q. Public, and having no per sonal interest In the matter, sees both sides of the question. If Mr. Public could look under the counters, inside the cabinets and refrigerators, and into the kitch en ond see how fllthy some res taurants really are, he would be even less desirous of eating there. On the other hand, Mr. Public makes it very difficult at times for the proprietor to com ply with the regulations that ■have been made by the Board of Health for the protection and convenience of the public. Probably the worst thing the proprietor has to contend with Is the way Mr, Public treits his rest rooms. Commodes must bo replaced because some wanton rascal has broken them; fre quently the plumber must be called because some Ignoramus has put something into the stool thht never was Intended for such disposal; and often after a toilet has been cleaned some nitwit stands on the .seat and loaves it in such a filthy mess that a de cent person loathes the sight ot It. The Sanitarian Is convinced after many years of dealing with the public that a large percent age of the people do not know how to use a toilet. Some people make the excuse that they stand on the seat to keep from “catch ing” a disease. Authorities agree that the chances of getting a venereal disease from a toilet seat are very slim Indeed. Most of the violations of the laws of decency and sanitation are due to either Ignorance ur carelessness. This remark is often made to the Sanitarian: “I wouldn’t give anybody else anything to eat that I wouldn’t eat myself.” Such a remark may not mean very much. One Is reminded of the mother who told an older child, “Get the dlshrag and wipe this young’un’s nose; if there’s anything I de spise, It’s nastiness,” When one sees a food handler boring down into the ear with a Unger, scratching the head, picking the nose, and serving food with his hands without washing, he won ders If it could possibly bo ig norance. Yes, there are two sides to (Continued on p»ge 8) Schools Operate On Saturday Schools of Davie county will operate Saturday, Feb ruary 9.

SUGAR ADVICE FOR BEEKEEPERS Raleigh—Due to the inclcmcnt weather of last summer and an unusually cold December, bse- 'rTccpers are showing great eager ness to obtain sugar to carry their colonies through the win tor months, according to ento mologlsts with the ,N. C. Agrl culture Department. They are reminding beekeep ers that “anyone needing sugar for feeding his bees may get sugar for that purpose In an a- mount not to exceed 10 pounds per calendar year for each colo ny of bees. If additional sugar Is necessary to prevent tile loss of his bees, he may obtain a cer tificate permitting him to pur chase up to 15 pounds of sugar per colony-^upon certification by the local county trlple-A com mittee.” They point out that sugar pur chase permits must bo obtained from the Office of Price Admin istration headquarters In Raleigh N. C. CORN STOCKS HEAVY THIS YEAR Raleigh—North Carolina far mers now have an estlmnted 40,016,000 bushels of corn in stock as compared with 35,942,- 000 bushels for- January a year ago, according to the N. C. Fede ral Crop Reporting Servlco of the State Agriculture Depart ment. The average number of bushels of corn stocks on North Caro lina farms during the past 10 years for January was 33,803,000 bushels. Due to the fact that 1946 was tho best corn year on record for North Carolina, this Slate Is in a »more favorable position than tho nation as a whole as regards corn stocks. In the United States, stocks of corn on farms amount ed to 1,931,000,000 bushels In Januaryl—the smallest In five years, but still 17 per cent above tho 10-year (1935-44) average. Iowa, which leads the country In the production of corn, has the smallest amount of corn on storage since 1938, and In Minn esota and Illinois stocks are tho smallest In several years, accord ing to tho Crop Reporting Ser vlco. Reenlistment Time Extended for Vets The time limit lias been ex tended for former army enlist ed men to reenlist and hold the same rathig held at time of dis charge, providing they act ujxin this within 90 days from date of discharge.

This also holds good until 90 days from date of separation. Recruiters say this latest In formation will be especially ben eficial to veterans who missed the former deadline for enlist ment and are Included in this latest provision. Boys of 17 years of age may also choose the branch of serv ice they desire and any one of six overseas theaters of opera tion.

PICTURE PUZZLE— We should not be surprised if the rest of the world finds it difficult to understand America. We do not un derstand ourselves, and we are constantly being amazed and perplexed at the contradictory aspects of our behavior. A case in point is our reactions to our former allies and our former enemies. Led by isolationists and conserve- tives, there are quite a number of people who have a grouch against England, and who resent the aid which we give to her. There also are people in America who take a very antagonistic attitude towards Russia, another of our allies. One finds, especially among returning soldiers, a dislike of the French. Yet, strange to say, many returning sol diers say the Germans, “Well, they are not so bad.” We have reports from the occupation troops that they mingle with Germans without showing resentment, and in some instances seem to be friendly towards them. In one sense that seems to be a fine gesture, and it would be If it had the deep Christian motivation. But this is what puzzjes us: German atrocities have been defi nitely established, and it has been cleatly established that they were no accident, but planned. The atrocities of the Germans shock all human sensibilities. It is now certainly established that the Nazis themselves started the Reichstag fire and then accused the Communists of doing it The v/holesale murder of Jews was planned; the barbarities such as using prisoners for human guinea pigs, the crip pling of artists and doctors of other races and peoples in order to prevent them from ever being of service; the treat ment of women in conquered lands— the list is too long to give here— but they are definitely established, and the German people as a whole have shone no sense of guilt. Their only sorrow is that they lost the war— not that they killed and impoverished whole nations and peoples. Yet these are the people with whom our soldiers are fraternizing in friendly fashion. It’s a problem for the psy chologist. We must confess our inability to understand. W e know that there are still Nazi sympathizers in America; many of the old gang are coming out of hiding, and prop agandizing our people— but we know all this, and yet! At least, it seems as if the other nations of the world might 'come to the conclusion that it would be better to be an «nemy of the United States rather than a friend— since now ■we treat our allies so badly, and our enemies with so much consideration. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8,1946 A JOKE A DAY So Seldom A stutterer bought a book that was guarantesci to cure stutter ing. "It t-t-taught me to s-s-say 'Poor Piper picked a peck of plcklcd peppers',” he mourned later, "b-but the t-trouble Is, that expression c-comes up s-so s-s-seldom In c-conversatlon!” No Wonder Younng Junior was gazing at the bundle left by the stork. "Did he come from heaven?” he asked, pitching his voice above the shrill yells of the baby. "Yes, dear,” his mother re plied. "Huh! No wonder they put him out,” said Junior. HOME CLUB HOLDS MEET Cracks Them Several men were traveling by train. Presently one produced a large trult cake, which he de voured greedily, Time passed. Suddenly he be gan groaning and doubling hlni- seli up and straightening out again. When this had gone on for some time, a friend asked him: “ 'Smatter, Jim?” "That cake I ate,” groaned the sufferer. "It had nuts and I think the missus forgot to shell them.” "Qraclous!” said his friend. "And can you crack ’em Just by bending?” M ORE BILBO- Regardless of the merits or demerits of the FAIR EM PLOYMENT bill, it is no capital to the South that it must be defended by such a man a Bilbo. We in the South often resent outside interference with our affairs, but we should remember that we are not the whole of the United States, and that what we think and do affects other parts of tlie nation. When we elect such men to officc as Bilbo, Tal- madge, and Huey Long, we are exposing our worst to the world just as much as New York with men as Hamilton Fish. Fortunately, North Carolina has had very few poli tical representative of peanut size attempting to move around in the full dress of a sizable statesman. As long as the people of the South elect representatives who make such poor showing in the eyes of the world, the South is bound to suffer even when said representatives champion good measures. A lookk at our educational institutions, professions, and other occupations will reveal a wealth of statesmen material. The people are to be blamed if they select peanuts, popcorn, and chewing gum statures. CONGRESSION AL FAILURE— In spite of tlie fact that able men in Congress have done work as vailiant and as secrificing as men on the battlefields, it is difficult to escape tho conviction that much of our present disorder could have been averted if Congress as a whole had met its responsibility. The Pres ident, while not always infallable, has done a much better job. Pressure groups have made things difficult for Con gress, but the President has also felt such pressure, There is too much truth in the generally accepted notion that congressmen keep their eyes so fixed upon votes that they become blind to responsibilities. The antics of a filibuster look more like doings of a group of eighth grade boys than a set of grown-up men elected to high office. Such tactics do not lend dignity or respect to our lawmaking body. There should be room for honest debate, but the honorable gentlemen are sup posed, however lightly, that this was a Democracy where the majority accepted the will of the majority. All in all, while greatly appreciating the difficulties under which we, the people, make our congressmen work, we are not greatly impressed with the efforts of Congress in this time of crisis. Satisfactory Apology The new preacher In the fron tier town delivered a strong ser mon on lawless conditions. Among other things, he said, "There are twelve thugs In this town. Including Butch Cassidy.” Butch learned ol the state ment and, next day, stopped the preacher on tho street and an nounced that he was going to tear that worthy limb from limb. The minister promised, If the threat was not carried out, to straighten out things tho next Sunday. So in his next sermon he said: "There are eleven thugs In this town, not Including Butch Cas sidy." And so Butch was satisfied. Little Jimmy announced to his grocer there was a now baby at his house. "Is ho going to stay?” the grocer asked. "I guess so,” replied the boy. “He's got all his things oil.” Rocky Mount’s 1946 Fat Stock Show will be held at Worsley's Stock Yards April 3 and 4.

The Southern Railway System docs bring new industries to the South, Not in one piece on a flat car, however I What actually happens is this... W e have an Industrial Devel- opment Department staffed by experts who know the South as well as you know your own back yard. They have the answers to all questions concerning plant sites, raw materials, labor, power, fuel, water, climate, and trans portation. And they will gladly skip meals, work all night and travel thou sands of miles to bring new industries to the Southland. They get their “tips" about prospective plants by keeping up with the trend of business... by checking industrial and financial publications... by watching and studying developments in all parts of the country. Sometimes tha “tip” comes from folks living in the South. And sometimes it comes from the new industry itself. W hen the“tip’’comes, the men in our Industrial Development Department swing into action. And you can see the results of their work in the many new industries . . . 148 of them last year alone... all along the 8,000- mile line of the Southern Railway System. W h y do we do it? Because we know that the Southern can prosper and progress only as the territory served by it prospers and progresses! Preiidvnt >gg ТЙЬу SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM PAGEfll THEMOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPÉISE FRIDAY/FEBRUARY 8,1946 THAT TREMENDOUS EGG SURPLUS STILL "JUST AROUND THE CORNER" IRalelgh—That midwinter egg Burplua which housewives have been looking forward to and far mers hiivc been dreading for se veral weeks Is still "just around the corner”. Although egg production In North Carolina in December was an estimated 49,000,000 as com pared with 48,000,000 for De cember of 1944, there is still a critical egg shortage In this State, and poultry marketing special ists with the N. C. Agriculture Department refused to predict when that long-anticipated "sur plus" will arrive. Meantime, the meat situation - Is expected to become as critical as the Inavailablllty of eggs. Marketing experts will tell you that the popularity of eggs was greatly enhanced by the ecar city of red points during the war years. So If the strikes In the packing plants continue, there may be no national egg surplus this year—whatever the hens do. North Carolina hens last year managed to lay 1,128,000,000 eggs — a lot of eggs, in fact 48,000,000 more eggs than In 1044—but there was no egg surplus worthy of mention In this State In 1045. And the surplus which usually begins around December 15 just hasn’t j|et arrived. Even the Price Administration was caught off base on the deal, for egg price celling began falling the latter part of December, so that thp eve^-lncreaslng "surpluB" would be obsorbed. Now, retail egg ceilings are approximately 13 cents a dozen lower ihan they were in December, and as con- eequence people* are eating more eggs in January than they did before Christmas, and the egg flhortage remains acute. So now it comes down to a battle between egg-eaters and egg layers. The average hen In 1946 laid 151 eggs against 147 In 1944 and 132 as the average for each 12 months during the past 10 years. There has been a gradual upward trend in the rate of lay during the past few years, because of improved qual ity of chicks and bettor feeding and management practices. But if you are an average American egg-eater, you will consume right at 400 eggs this year. In 1945, you ate around 390. In the old dajis, you never went above 300, Now, however, you like one egg a day, quite a few egggs in cakes and pies, and you even prefer spinach served with slices of , boiled eggs—spinach diluted. ■Prlccs received by farmers for eggs In mid-December in the nation averaged 48.2 cents per dozen—the highest December prlce^ since 1924. In December of 1944, the average price was 44.5 cents a dozen, and the ave rage price for that month dur ing the past 10 years was 30.6 cents per dozen. The Federal-State^ Crop Re porting Service estimates that there were 10,494,000-laying hens on the farms of ■ this State in December as compared to 1944, so we should be getting more eggs, and Indications are that we are getting more eggs. How ever, they are being eaten as fast as they are produced. iPeople have more money- consumer purchasing power, the economists call it—and they arc buying more and better food. Poultry prices have been high, and farmers, expecting the egg surplus and resulting lower prices may have sold off large num ber of their hens. Absence, or delajf, of the surplus might be traced to any numlber of causes, It could be the weather. BIXBY Miss Dorothy Potts of Cornat- zer spent the week-end with Miss Doris Potts. Pvt.

M. Holding iarm, route 2, Wake Forest, has proved that winter sunbaths are as beneficial to growing calves as to tired busi nessmen and scantily - clad beauties on tropical beaches. __Rich, testing his theory abuot sunlight for animals, designed and built a calf barn with a “southern exposure” and enclos ed entirely an the southern side by glass windows hinged at the top, allowing sunlight to bathe the whole barn through most of the day. A cafl raised in this new barn was one year younger than a calf reared In an old-type barn virtually devoid of Internal light but when the two were placed slde-by-slde, the dlffer- veterans the best service possi ble, Mr. Leagans states. ence In their sizes was negllsible.- Rich credits to sunlight the fast-^ er growth of the younger calf. The "Rich” calf barn la built on cinder blocKs, Is 120 feet long and 20 feet wide. Its calf stalls are so constructed that each section can be removed separately When a cleaning Is needed. The flooring Is concrete covered by three or four lnche,s of dry wood shavings, A four-foot aisle along the front side of the barn allows room for work with the calves. The farm manager concludes that “sunlight, good feed and sanitation are the most Import ant factors in the successful raising of calves,” and suggests that the sunlight factor should be given first consideration. There were 9,245,000 persons engaged in farm work In the United States at the turn of this: year. you ARE IMPORTANT PEOPLE The Piedmont Farmer was ready for his part in the national job of producing more food with less help. For over 40 years his number,, iiyjroportion to the total population of his section, has been decreasing. Yet he has steadily produced more and more food. He is alert to profit by electric service in its many applications to farming. He is rapidly developing one of the fine dairy sec tions of the South. He is making poultry raising important in our farm economy. He practices a profitable diversification of crops. He is keenly interested in food and crop processing operations that open new markets and create new opportuni ties. He has helped to give his section an enviable balance between farm and factory. Nowhere else, President Franklin Roose velt once declared, “do industry and agriculture, operating to gether, with local raw materials, give such unified scope of in dustrial activity and steadfastness of employment.” The Piedmont farmer has accomplished his part in this economic equilibrum by simple and effective means . . . hard work, intelligence, and readiness to change his rhethods, wherever change means progress.

DR. LESTER MARTIN ROTARY SPEAKER Being pessimistic about the prevention of future wars, Dr. Lester P. Martin told local Ro tarlans at their Tuesday moot ing that the best means of pre venting wars and keeping this nation strong so that other na tions would not attack it was to maintain individual Initialve and free enterprise. When a people surrender their Initiative to a group of govern ment who can tell them what to do, how to produce and how • to regulate their economic lives, that country will perish In the I end," tlie speaker said. Ho cited the case of the Italian people, who allowed their freedom of individual enterprise to be sapped and Mussolini was the result, Tho same happened In Germany with Hitler, The re sult was a superficial appear ance of strength and more ef- ilclency but such an attitude on the part of the people was fatal.

Candling Eggs Pays Excellent Dividends Everyone in the Harper fam ily, Including Lionel and Peggy, 4-H club mem'bers, candles eggs and markets them In cartons because they receive a premium of 5 cents a dozen and find the candling ea.sy and interesting. Four years ago Mrs, Lee Har per of Route 4, Kinston, visited a district poultry short course at Newbern, learned how to candle eggs under the direction of ex tension service specialLsts from State college, and returned home to put in practice v/hat slie had learned, F, J. Koonce, Jr., assistant farm agent in Lenoir county, says that Mr.'and Mrs. Harper have been making about $400 a year clear profit from candling the eggs from 500 to GOO white leghorns. An egg candler costs about $3. "Little time is involved in candling," says Mrs. Harper, “In fact, enough time is saved by having people come direct to the farm for egg purchases to off set the time It takes to do the candling. This candling is Just as practical for the small poul- tryman as it Is for the larger ones because It means top egg prices, and this is where the profits come in. "Of course, you must have clean eggs. This calls for clean nests and clean houses. Our flock Is now down to 250 layers, but we plan to rebuild it when we get a new laying house.” "Lionel and Peggy are getting .started right,” says Koonce. “They have a 4-H laying flock of 85 New Hampshlres, which they raised themselves. They are candling their eggs and seU them to the Soutliwood sehooi lunch room. They, like their parents, have more calls for eggs than they can supply." USE OUU WANT ADS, GET RKSULTS.

All suffered the daily lot of dawn-to-dusk toil in pitiless heat or torrential tropical rain, starvation rations, nak ;dness and savage brutality of Jap taskmasters. Beside rescuing Allied prisoners, the British ha 'e erected camps for the laborers. Such a camp is Thanbuza, near Moulmein, Burma.

Korth Cnroimn v-s PBESS ASSOOATIOMV V© STRANGE HAPPENINGS— It i3 little wonder that the world is puzzled by the strange behaviour of the people in it. There is so much that is fine— and so much that is not so fine. It has been proven beyond doubt that Hitler and his gang plotted to bring about war; they deliberately plan ned to murder millions of Jews and did it; they embarked upon a campaign of wholesale murder, torture, rapine, brutality and robbery such as the world never knew before. Volumes of evidence have been collected which leave no doubt of the character and deeds of Hitler’s Germany. Yet, a poll among American soldiers in Germany revealed the fact that seventeen hundred of them said they did not believe that Hitler was responsible for the war. Other reports and pictures show our soldiers in company with German women, and everybody wearing smiles. All this In the face of the thousands of good Americans killed by the husbands and brothers of these German women. All this in view of the borrows of German prison camps. We would not have our people harbor hatred, or re turn evil for evil, but we do believe that for the ends of justice and the safety of the American children of today, some things should be remembered, and so remembered that Germany will not soon forget. Can it be possible that we have a sizable number of young men able to read and write who still do not know why we fought a war with Germany? RETURNING SANITY— The end of a few major strikes means, we sincerely hope, the more reasoned behaviour of all groups concern ed. The attitudes of both labor and management left the impression on the great mass of people, known as the gene ral public, of a movement which betrayed more human stubbornness than reasoned action. It was difficult for this general public to form opinions as to the apportion ment of blame other than to blame the whole lot of human beings involved for the lack of consideration for the buy ing public. Arguments on both sides were so plausible that choos ing sides was almost out of tho question. It is good to see that both sides are making concessions, and both are showing a finer spirit. The great need of goods by the general public led both sides to hope that their demands would be met. Let us hope that now we may have every one concerned with production look upon their work as the opportunity to serve tho needs of the people of the world! That is of far greater importance to mauagement and labor than tho mere question of wages and profits. This higher motive, intelligently applied, will increase both profit and wages. Let us hope that all the wheels of pro duction will shortly be turning, creating tlie things, and money to buy the things, which make for a more abun dant life. A PEARL OF GREAT PRICE— We are aware that capital is necessary for production, and that when it is placed at the disposal of the commu nity is entitled to some increase. We call this profit. Along witii the money goes training in scientific know ledge, which in itself is quite an investment. We are also aware of the fact that labor is necessai7 to production. Without labor capital is useless. And labor is entitled to its fair share of production. But above these stand out some of greater impor tance, and among them is the primary consideration that all groups are a part of humanity, a brotherhood, and that this should be the basis of their relationships, not merely the question of profits and wages. Each side must treat the other as brethren, especially if tiie major ity on both sides profess to b6 Christians. It is in obedience to this Divine law that both profits and wages are dependent. When this law is violated and hatred and ill-will is created, production lags, and pro fits fall off, When the law is obeyed there is increase all around. It is of the gi’eatest importance that both sides cul tivate good-will friendliness, and willingness to make con cessions. Each should study the claims of the other even more than his own, If such an atmosphere is created the practical issues will be more easily settled. RITES HELD FOR MRS.

He a.sserted that the coun try had become great and strong through the exercise of personal willingness to take a chance and self-reliance rather than have the government as sume the role of taking care of everybody. The speaker said history showed that wars recur; that strong, frep nations are tho.se which survive; that empires had fallen because the individuals of those nations were not free and self-reliant. He spoke of the many plans of many people to abolish war; preservation of the secret of the atomic bomb, uni versal military training, consoli dation of tlie armed forces and International political organiza tions. "I do not believe we will have peace unless human nature Is changed," he added. "Meanwhile our best protection is be strong and free." , Dr. Martin pointed to the many new faces, new businesses which had been established here in recent years and formation of a Rotary club as indices ot per sonal initiative in keeping with the American tradition.

This question has been raised a number of times, says R. W. Graebur, in charge of ex tension forestry at State college, "but no one has had nerve enough to rarry out a definite tost along this line.” Phosphate has been used on black locust trees with good results. Oscar O ’Neil of Polkton, Anson coun ty, is planning to fertilize some pines and he will be able to give some Information on the ques tion in a few years. Q. Will the tongue lapping by my cow cause any trouble? A. No. Prof. R. H. Ruffner of State college says that the tongue lapping of animals, while a very unattractive habit, seems to cause no more harm than the thumb-sucking,„by a child. He suggests that you give the heifer a block of salt to lick, plenty of good legume hay, and put her on a grazing crop, if possible. Some cows have the incllnalion to lap and droll the tongue, but just the same, tliey give their five gallons of milk a day, when fresh. Q. How can I plan to meet the egg surpluses of the future? A. Since you are a small owner. Prof. Roy Dearstyne sug gests that you work out a plan by which you can deliver eggs once a week or more to a select list of customers. "Be sure to deliver top quality eggs,” says Dearstyne, "and this calls for candling and grading. This op eration is easily carried out and it pays big dividends In the form of satisfied customers.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current N. C. State College The lit of a slip depends not ■only on Its size but also on Its ■cut, clothing specialists remind us. Bias-cut slips, sold so widely In stores, usually fit slender fig ures but straight cut slips are better sultpd to stout figures and large hips. Straight-out slips stay down better over the knees when sitting and are less likely to hang unevenly and "cut un der” at the back, which gives an especially ugly appearance with sheer drosses. What makes for a good buy In sheets holds also- for a good buy In pillow cases-flrm weave, little sizing, torn-lengths, smooth and even hems. A word about sizes; Pillow cases too large wrinkle under the head. Cases too small bunch up the pillow Into a hard lump and are likely to bo strained. Your best bet Is a case 1 Va inches wider and 6 Inches longer than tho pillow. When you buy towels you must soniotlmes compromise between .durability and drying power. A towel that dries well Is soft, fulf- fy has little Iwlst lu the pile yarns, and loos foundation. So look for a towel with firm foun dation and soft loops, about Hi Inch long, rather than close to gether, but not too tightly twlsl- Many Changes To Come in Farming Now that tlie war Is over, many changes In farm production In North Carolina will be necessary If heavy losses, similar to those suffered after the last war, are to be avoided, says the sixty- seventh annual report of the Agricultural Experiment Sta tion, recently released by Direc tor L. D. Haver. The report cites the 30 per cent Increase In peanut acreage as compared with pre-war years as a good example of what has taken place In many phases of crop production. The acreagc devoted to truck crops has been Increased by about one-half. The Increase In hens and pul lets has been considerably more than 50 per cent, and indications now point to a large surplus of eggs and poultry meat during the coming year. "Tobacco growers should be on the alert for ways of Increasing tho quality of the crop and of reducing production costs,” the report suggests. "This holds true not only for tobacco but ed.

Farm Kitchen Plans Studied By Agents Each home demonstration agent of the State College Ex tension service In North Caro lina Is studying plans and sug gestions for remodeling or build ing a modern farm kitchen, which Is quite different from the makeshift kitchen found in so many rural homes. These 'home agents are In po sition to give export suggestions on plans for floor and wall space; for windows and doors that pro vide plenty of light and cross- vontllatlon; for special work, food preparation, business, and dining centcrs; for special sto rage compartments tor canned food and other supplies; for proper working surfaces for all kitchen jobs; and for proper wiring and lighting. Tho homo agents studied tho many problems for tho construc tion of a modern kitchen at the recent annual conference of the extension service In Raleigh. Pauline E. Gordon, extension ■specialist in homo management and furnishings, has given the agents many practical sugges tions which may be Incorporated In th eromodollng of an old kitchen or the building of a new one. Prof. David S. Weaver and his assistants In the Department of Agricultural Engineering at State college have also contrib uted many valuable suggestions to these plans lor a modern farm kitchen, where the hou.se- wlfo spends so much of her time. The kitchen on tho farm must bo different from that in the city because it has to provide for many more special jobs. "The kitchen Is tho most im portant room In the farm home,” says Miss Gordon. "A bright, colorful kitchen, arranged to save steps and stoops, can save both the time and the energy of tho homemaker. The kitchen can be made a mighty pleasant place In which to work, If It is properly located, planned, and equipped. Slate Collesre Hint? To Farm Hnmcmaker.^ tiv KUTll CIJUUKNT N, C, Slate College Whether a houscplant grows to foliage or to bloom may de pend on the size of its pot. Plant scientists say 1/hat plants grown In homes for decorative foliage, such as the bright-leafed coleus, need large containers with plen ty of space for expanding roots to favor heavy leaf grov/th. Flowering plants, on the otlier hand, give more bloom In small pots which cause roots to be “pot bound" but a plant needs to be repotted occasionally to provide fresh nourishment. Nutritionists tell us cranber ries add considerable vitamin C to the diet wlien they are served In generous portions. Science explains that vitamin C tends to be destroyed by heat and by exposure to air. In other words, the food value ot cranberries va ries according to the way you prepare them. Most of th* vita min C is available when you use the beiTles raw—as in a freshly made relish or molded salad. Some vitamin C Is lost when you make cranberries Into sauce. Even more Is destroyed when you strain the sauce, or make tho juice into jelly. Use An Enterprise Want Ad. also for all crops and livestock products. "At the present time, addi tional attention must be given to producing that quality pt cot ton most needed by the domes tic market," Tho report calls attention to the need for more dairy cows In North Carolina but suggests that a large portion of tho in crease In the number of animals be used for family milk cows to Improve the general diet of the farm population, "Vegetable crops will have to be adjusted to domestic de mands, which may mean a marked decrease In acreage,” the report says.

The slcetch calls for a base ment and main floor, the build ing to be 70 feet wide and 07 feet in depth and constructed of brick, steel and tile. The basement would contain three or four largo recreation rooms where games could be played by such organizations as Boy and Girl Scouts, a furnace room, storage room, men’s lock er room with toilet and showers. The main floor would have an auditorium 35 feet by 65 feet, a kitchen 13 X 17, a ladies’ lounge IS X 28, and space for regular meetings of the legion or Vet erans of Foreign Wars. A porch, 11 X 34, Is also included. Members of the committee which secured the preliminary plans Include E. C. Morris, Grady vWard, John LeGrand, C. P. Me roney, Jr., and Raymond Foster.

S. Walker, county chairman, 'and J. H. Thompson, who wUl direct the 1946 cam paign. A county^vide organization of workers has been set up similar to last year, The canvass in the Mocksville precinct will be on March 6 and it Is planned to complete it in one day. Messrs. Walker and ’Tliomp- fion point out that the money given to the Red Cross In Davie this year will largely be used to help veterans, both in and out of the service, and their families.

Heretofore about 87 percent of the money given the Red Crass has l)een sent to national head quarters. This year the local chapter will keep 65 percent of all money donated above $1,500. Accordingly, if the donations are what Is to be expected, Davie will have more Red Cro.ss money than ever before to meet any unforeseen emergencies. A partial list of the chairmen in the various precincts of the county include: Mocksville; R. B. Sanford, Jr., in charge of the business dis trict; Mrs. C. H. Tomlinson in charge of the womens division and the residential sections. Mrs. Virginia Bowles will be In charge of the township outside of the city limits.

W ALKER ERWIN MILLS PARLEY FAILS Efforts to settle the strike of the Erwin Mills which began last Get. 8 broke dowTi in Washing ton last week after a 10-day con ference between company of ficials, representatives of the CIO and Federal Conciliation Commissioner Clyde M. Mills. The breakdown was attributed to a dispute over the distribution of proposed wage increases. After negotiations broke down, K. P. Lewis, president of the company, said the mills would open and union leaders said the strike would continue. The union pitched tents in front of the plants for picket ing and the management posted notices that the plants would not open now because of the pos sibility of creating violence, al though some workers had ex pressed a desire to return to work. Subsequently it was announced that Roy R. Lawrence, southern regional dlrcclor of the Textile Workers of America, would par ticipate for the first time in negotiations by a conference in Raleigh with Emil Rieve of New York, president of the union, and William Ruffin, vice president of the mills.

ALFRED MORDECAI District Health OfTiccr Of all animal pests, rats and mice are the most numerous and destructive. For thousands of years man has been fighting these pests, but experience shows that they cai-W6t- be extermi nated. Thes best man has ever done has been to prevent over whelming numbers and devas tation. ■The females of this tribe bear about five litter« of young each year. Each litter consists of 6 to 14. .Breeding is most active between spring and late fall. Every female rat destroyed to day will shorten the rat popu lation by 40 or 50 this year. If we destroy 100 rats, now, ■ there will be 5,000 rats less next year. If we destroy 1,000 now, we' will have about 50,000 fewer next year. ECONOMIC WASTE It is estimated that rats and mice actually eat more than $182,00[J,000 worth of food in the United States every year. This does not count the food-stuffs they spoil. Nor does it include the tremendous damage they do to property. These pests de stroy by pollution ten times more than they eat. They de vour all kinds of stored foods in pantries, stores and markets. They chew up untold amounts of wearing apparel and valuable silks and harness, and carpets. (Continued on page 8) COUNTYWIDE CAMPAIGN TO KILL RATS WILL BE HELD SECOND WEEK OF MARCH Gets Air Medal Mrs.'W. M. Marklln, of Mocks ville will receive the Air Medal Sunday morning at 11 o'clock at the Mocksville Baptist church which has been posthumously awarded to her son, 2nd Lieut. Albert Clay Marklln of the U.S. Air Corps. The presentation will be made by Lt. Col. Ray mond F. Edwards of Greensboro. Clay was reported killed over Chichi Jima on July 13, 1945, while flying a P-51 fighter. The Air Medal citation states: “For meritorious achievement while participating in aerial flight. While participating in very long range fighter missions against the Japanese Empire, they accomplished the missions successfully and with distinction above that, normally expected, displaying high professional skill and courage which reflect ed great credit upon themselves and the Army Air Forces.” DAVIE BOYS DISCHARGED The following additional Davie county boys were discharged from military service: Staff Sgt.

COMING HOME Seaman first class David A, Shuior, son of Mrs. Flourer Shulor, is coming home from the Pacific on the USS Manila Bay. Plans for another countywldc rat killing campaign during the sccond week of March have been completed, George Hobson, county agent, states. The drive has been cndor.sed by the county commissioners, the town officials of Mocksville, and the manage ment of the Erwin mills in Coo leemee. Eighteen dlflerent stores and service stations are taking or ders for the bait which is cost ing 75 cents for a quart pack age, A list of the firms taking orders throughout the county will be found in an advertise ment in this week’s paper. There is at present an acute feed shortage, and from all in dications will get worse. Farm ers should do everything they can to save what feed they have on hand. Rats do an untold amount of damage to feed, feed sacks, small chicks, undermine buildings, gnawing the insula tion from electric wires, causing fires, and spread disease. It is conservatively estimated that the damage caused by rats In Davie county amounts to $100,- 000 annually. Since rats migrate from one farm to another, to elTectively control them it is necessary, for best results, for the entire com munity to put out bait at the same time. Red squill, a poison, that is very destructive to rats, but harmless to domesticated ani mals, will be used. The pols'on will be mixed with ground raw fish and oatmeal. It has been found that this bait is very at tractive to rats. Since this is a perishable product, it is neces sary for every farmer wanting the bait to place his ordci by March 1. L, C. Whitehead, rodent con trol agent for the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture, will be In the county to personally super vise the mixing of the bait. In Mock.svilln and Cooleeme# Mr. Whitehead will train several men to distribute the bait.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current N. C. State College The fit of a slip depends not only on its size but also on its •cut, clothing specialists remind us. Bias-cut slips, sold so widely In stores, usually fit slender fig ures but straight cut slips are better suited to stout figures and large hips. Straight-cut slips stay down better over tho knees when sitting and aro less likely to hang unevenly and "cut un der” at tho back, which gives an especially ugly appearance with sheer drosses. What makes for a good buy In sheets holds also- for a good buy In pillow casos-flrm weave, little sizing, torn-longths, smooth and even hems. A word about sizes; Pillow cases too large wrinkle under the head. Cases too small bunch up tho pillow Into a hard lump and :are likely to bo strained. Your best bet Is a case 1 '/a inches wider and 0 Inches longer than the pillow. When you buy towels you must somellmos compromise between durability and riryhig power. A towel that dries well Is soft, fulf- :fy has little twist In the pile yarn.s, and loos foundation. So look for a towel with firm foun dation and soft loops, about Va hich long, rather than close to- gotlior, but not too tightly twlst- Many Changes To Come in Farming Now that the war Is over, many changes In farm production In North Carolina will bo necessary If heavy losses, similar to those suffered after the last war, are to be avoided, says the sixty- seventh annual report of the Agricultural Experiment Sta tion, recently released by Direc tor L.

The acreage devoted to truck crops has boon Increased by about one-half. The Increase In hens and pul lets has been considerably more than 50 per cent, and Indications now point to a large surplus of eggs and poultry meat during the coming year. “Tobacco growers should bo on tho alert for ways of Increasing tho quality of the crop and of reducing production costs,” the report suggests.

Farm Kitchen Plans Studied By Agents Each home demonstration agent of the Stato College Ex tension service In North Caro lina Is studying plans and sug gestions for remodeling or build ing a modern farm kitchen, which Is quite different from tho makeshift kitchen found In so many rural homes. These lipme agents are in po sition to give export suggestions on plans for floor and wall space; for windows and doors that pro vide plenty of light and cross- ventllatlon; for special work, food preparation, business, and dining centers; for special sto rage compartments for canned food and other supplies; for proper working surfaces for all kitchen Jobs; and for proper wiring and lighting. • Tho homo agents studied the many problems for the construc tion of a modern kitchen at the recent annual conference ot the extension service In Raleigh, Pauline E. Gordon, extension specialist In home management and furnishings, has given the agents many practical sugges tions which may be Incorporated In th eremodellng of an old kitchen or the building of a new one. Prof. David S. Weaver and his assistants In tho Department ot Agricultural Engineering at State college have also contrib uted many valuable suggestions to these plans for a modern farm kitchen, whore tho house wife spends so much of her time. The kitchen on tho farm must bo dirCcrent from that in tho city because It has to provide for many more special Jobs. "The kitchen Is the most Im portant room In tho farm homo,” says Miss Gordon. “A bright, colorful kitchen, arranged to save steps and stoops, can save both the time and tho energy of tho homemaker. The kitchen can be made a mighty pleasant place In which to work, If It is properly located, planned, and equipped. also for all crops and livestock products. "At tho present time, addi tional attention must be given to producing that quality of cot ton most needed by the domes tic market," Tho report calls attention to the need for more dairy cows in North Carolina but suggests that a large portion of the In crease In the number of animals be used for family milk cows to Improve the general diet ol the farm population, "Vegetable crops will have to be adjusted to domestic de mands, which may mean a marked decrease In acreage,” the report says.

DAVIE RED CROSS FUND FOR 1946 WILL OPEN MARCH 4 Davie county’s annual Red Cross fund will begin the first Monday in March, it is an nounced by H, S, Walker, county chairman, 'and J. H, Thomp.son, who will direct the 1946 cam paign. A countywlde organization of workers has been set up similar to last year. The canvass in tho Mocksville precinct will be on March 0 and It Is planned to complete it in one day. Messrs, Walker and ’Tliomp- Bon point out that the money given bo the Red Cross In Davie this year will largely be used to help veterans, both in and out of the service, and their families. There are multitudinous needs which arise from such matters as furloughs, discharges, Illness, ioans for emergency hospital cases. Heretofore about 87 percent of the money given the Red Cross has been sent to national head quarters, This year the local chapter will keep 65 percent of all money donated above $1,500. Accordingly, if the donations are what is to bo expected, Davie will have more Red Cross money tlian ever before to meet any unforeseen emergencies.

W ALKER ERWIN MILLS PARLEY FAILS Efforts to settle the strike of the Erwin Mills which began last Get. 8 broke dowm in Washing ton last week after a 10-day con ference between company of ficials, representatives of the CIO and Federal Conciliation Commissioner Clyde M, Mills, The breakdown was attributed to a dispute over the distribution of proposed wage Increases. After negotiations broke down, K, P. Lewis, president of the company, said the mills would open and union leaders said the strike would continue. The union pitched tents in front of the plants for picket ing and the management posted notices that the plants would not open now because of the pos sibility of creating violence, al though some workers had ex pressed a desire to return to work. Subsequently it was announced that Roy R, Lawrence, .southern regional director of the Textile Workers of America, would par ticipate for the first time in negotiations by a conference in Raleigh with Emil Rieve of New York, president of the union, and William Ruffin, vice president of the mills, HEAVY TRADING IN REAL ESTATE Heavy trading is in progress in Davie real estate, as seen by the recent transfers in tho of fice of C, R.

ALFRED ftlOKDECAI District Health Officcr Of all animal posts, rats and mice are the most numerous and destructive. For thousands of years man has been fighting these pests, but experience shows that they cannot bo "extermi nated. Thes best man has ever done has been to prevent over whelming numbers and devas tation. •ТЬо females of this tribe bear about five Utter« of young each year. Each litter consists of 6 to 14. .Breeding is most active between spring and late fall. Every female rat destroyed to day will shorten the rat popu lation by 40 or 50 this year. If we destroy 100 rats now, there will be 5,000 rats less next year. If we destroy 1,000 now, we' will have about 50,000 fewer next year. ECONOSIIC WASTE It is estimated that rats and mice actually eat more than $182,000,000 worth of food in the United States every year. This does not count the food-stuffs they spoil. Nor does it Include the tremendous damage they do to property. These pests de stroy by pollution ten times more than they eat. They de vour all kinds of stored foods in pantries, stores and markets.

COMING HOME Seaman first class David A. Shulor, son of Mrs. Flourer Shulor, Is coming home from the Pacific on the USS Manila Bay. Plans for another countywlde rat killing campaign during the second week of March have been completed, George Hobson, county agent, states. The drive has boon endorsed by the county commissioners, the town officials of Mocksville, and the manage ment of the Erwin mills In Coo leemee. Eighteen different stores and service stations are taking or ders for the bait which is cost ing 75 cents for a quart pack age. A list of the firms taking orders throughout the county will be found In an advertise ment In this week’s paper. There is at present an acute feed shortage, and from all In dications will get worse. Farm ers should do everything they can to save what feed they have on hand. Rats do an untold amount of damage to feed, feed sacks, small chicks, undermine buildings, gnawing the Insula tion from electric wires, causing fires, and spread disea.se. It is conservatively estimated that the damage caused by rats in Davie county amounts to $100,- 000 annually. Since rats migrate from one farm to another, to effectively control them it Is necessary, for best results, for the entire com munity to put out bait at the same time. Red squill, a poison, that is very destructive to rats, but harmless to domesticated ani mals, will be used. The poison will be mixed with ground raw fish and oatmeal. It has been found that this bait is very at tractive to rats. Since this is a perishable product, it Is neces sary for every farmer wanting the bait to place his ordev by March 1. L. C. Whitehead, rodent con trol agent for the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture, will be In the county to personally super vise the mixing of the bait. In Mocksville and Cooleemee Mr. Whitehead will train several men to distribute the bait.

CHILEAN NITRATE off SOOA NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATION By G. W. McCLELLAN Wallace and Bill Green, three miles west ol Mock-sville, were as sisted in laying out a flsh pond last week. They plan to build this pond according to the latest recommendations, diverting all surplus rain water around the pond. They will ‘have nothing but spring water as their water supply. They plan to Install a drain pipe under the dam to permit draining of pond. They wfll fertilize this pond to pro duce more small water plants for food. The Middle Yadkin Dis trict hopes to get one hundred big mouth bass and fifteen hun dred bream flsh per acre for stocking this pond. A well -planned and good lo cated fish pond Is a source of pleasure, furnishes food to the extent of around three hundred pounds of flsh per acre and will bo a suitable place for swimming.

History tells us that when nations have become rich and accustomed to easy living decay sets in. Riches attract the envy and hatred of less fortunate na tions, and thus there is created the condition out of which war between nations arise. Easy living produces physical and spiritual flabbiness. The Scriptures take us back to the source of all these discords and tell us that it is just plain selfishiness— not merely the selfishness of the big, rich folks, but of the little folks— the average run of folks. It has never been the size of possessions one held, but the spirit in which he held it which mattered. Some of us remember that only a few short years back when we were trying to get good roads, something which benefits eveiyone, it was often the man with the smallest parcel of ground who fought most savagely againSt good roads. It has Ijeen true in almost every area where great public power dams have been built. We are all so tinged with selfishness that we hold on tenaciously to what we each have, and praise the generosity which we demand the other fellow have. We were forcibly reminded of this when protests began pouring in against the use of sites proposed by the United Nations Committee. Here is an organization which is set up in hope of making for world peace, and a few people who do not wish to be disturbed object to its headquarters being set up in their community. People who act like that, even If it is you and I, need not expect to see a world rid of war. ELBAVILLE SENATOR CLAGHORN The Fred Allen show, in characterization of Senator Claghorn, played by Kenneth Delmar, packs tlie biggest buhch of laughs that any radio program can boast of to day, We like the humor and we like the spirit of Senator Claghorn. There is no objection to one’s devotion to his country, state, or community, There are some things in the South of which we are proud, and to wliich we sliould cling with something of reverent devotion. But there are times when we fear that our loyalty overdoes itself. We have a disposition to look back too much. The glory of the South looks forward as well as backward. We must learn to think of ourselves as a part of the nation, as a part of the world. We must try to learn what the rest of the world thinks about, and what its real needs are. We must try to understand that thinking and be sympatlietic towards those needs. The South cannot live to itself anymore than one nation, or one individual, can live to tliemselves, Our destiny is bound up with the destiny of the world. The best interests of the South lie in the best interests of the whole world. Our politicians have helped to make us too- provincial-minded. The first step to a greater South is to think of ourselves as a part of the world.

Dad: Yes, and I think there’s a troop train on It. Then there’s tlio story about the two ambitious fleas who worked hard and saved their money and finally went out and bought their own dog. Silly: What’s that? Willy; That’s a watermelon. Silly: Wouldn’t take many of 'em to make a doxen, would it?

Findlay has launched a llve- ycar plan and a six-point pro gram for the North Carolina di vision of game and inland fish eries. It points to a revamped system of management, protec tion, education, and training which Involves operation of 500,000 acres of wildlife areas and administrative control over the State's entire field and stream resources. “Prior to and certainly by the end of five years,” claims P'lnd- lay, "we will have: (1) a law en forcement and protection of wildlife noted throughout the state as one of intelligent man agement; (2) a program of at least 100,000 more acres acquisi tion of state-owned land and a feature of game management through license revenue sufii- clent for the division to discon tinue charglnf for .special hunt ing privileges on state-owned or operated lands; (3) an adequate stock of fish; (4) better under standing and closer relationship with all related organizations and interested sportsmen through a wide-awake and in telligent education, training, and public relations program; (5) in creased aid in money and land acquisition from the Federal Oovernmcnt, and; 0 , a fiscal eection within the Division de voted to the collection and dis tribution of fees and funds.” Concisely these are the six points established. More farm fruits are in pros pect for civilians in 1940 than in 1945 and canned fruits will be much more plentiful.

Army Offers College Education Under the generous G I Bill of Rights, young men enlisting now In the new peacetime army, are assured of several years of tuition free, college or trade school education, augmented by a substantial monthly allow ance. A three-year enlistment fully authorizes any soldier 48 calendar months of such higher :ducation. The value of being a sollcge or a trade or mcchanlcal school graduate is of prtine Im portance in the advancing socie ty we live In today.

They play havoc In the farmers’ barns and cribs. They destroy eggs and yourig poultry. They also take to the fields 'In «pring and summer, where they damage growing crops and take toll from every harvest. They eat the eggs and nestings of the song birds and likewise attack the game birds, such as quail. These things alone are enough to condemn the rat-mouse tribe and justify all out war against It, but there are other reasons, too. CREATE PLAGUES OF DISEASE It Is definitely known that rats and mice are responsible for no less than three dreadful diseases that have caused human deaths In untold hundreds of thou- thousands. These diseases are bubonic plague (The Black Death), endemic typhus fever, and trichinosis. They spread other diseases besides. BUBONIC PLAGUE This has been one of the world’s worst scourges. The dis ease was described In the An cient Hebrews and one account of an epidemic mny bo found in I Samuel, Chapters 4, 5 and C. This same disease plagues Eu rope for eleven hundred years. During this period it is believed that one-fourth of all the deaths were due to this scourge alone. One outbreak in the 10th cen tury, known as "The Black Plague” killed one-teuth of the population In England. The dis ease then mysteriously subsided and It was thought we would have no more of It when sud denly during World War I it broke out In China and Man churia and killed more than 25,000 people. It reached San Francisco and it was only by the expenditure of huge sums of money and heroic human ef fort that the disease was stamped out before it spread to the entire United States. Bu bonic plague Is a disease of rats. It is transmissible to man. The control of the disease is the con trol of rats. RAT-TYPIIUS This is another disease of rats transmissible to man. Like ty phoid fever, it Is characterized by 3 or 4 weeks of fever fol lowed by weeks of prostration. Death from the disease is not uncommon. This disease right now threatens to become com mon in the South and if rats and mice are not controlled we are liable to see the disease break out In epidemic propor tions. Rats infected with typhus have been found in almost every community that has been sur veyed in the Southern part of the United States. TRICHINOSIS The name of this disease may be new to many readers of this article, but It Is a common dis ease among rats, and hogs, throughout the world. Its his tory reaches far back into an cient times. Trichinosis Is a worm-like parasite invisible to the naked eye. It is primarily a rat disease mostly through its excreta. His droppings are de posited in garbage and the troughs of hogs. The worms bore through the intestines of the pig and work their way by thou sands Into the muscle structures and Internal organs. The dis ease contracted by man through pork that is not thoroughly cooked. Trichinosis reorganized ages ago when it was most prevalent due to the fact that people had no stoves and ate their meats only partly done. It was the prevalence of this disease that caused the ancient Hebrews to wipe out hog meat entirely from their food list and also this dls- eijse led to the first meat In spections by the priests before It could be marketed. This practice has evolved to our present day methods of meat Inspection by trained govern ment Inspectors. For the above reason your health departnient strongly en dorses the present campaign to reduce the rat-mouse population In Davie county. It behooves every housekeeper, every farm er, every storekeeper and every restaurant operator in this coun ty to take a lively Interest in this campaign— to be alert and to actively cooperate In an ef fort to poison, trap, capture and kill as many rats and mice as possible.%It requires no sharp-eyed ge nius to look about Davie county and point out numerous rat feeding and rat breeding places. Both the health officer and san itary ofl'icer have already point ed out the tremendous need of Gleaning up our towns and local premises. Both have made a plea for proper garbage collec tion and disposal. Too many of our private and public places are boarding rats free of charge—In fact Inviting them to a free and open lunch counter.

The list of ser>^ces your Red Cross has given our Servicemen — your Ser> .viceman — is almost endless. Blood plasma made the difference between life and death to many thousands of our men. Food parcels packed by the Red Cross meant survival to many of our men in prisoner of war camps. Medical kits and capture par* cels were provided wherever possible. Red Cross workers distributed release kits to thousands of prisoners as soon after their liberation as possible. Red Cross Clubs iiave sprung up by the hundreds all over the world ... wherever the Armed Forces went... sup plying a warm touch of home for lonely, home* sick lads. Red Cross hospital workers talk to the men — laugh and play games with them —provide amusement and recreation facilities to shorten long, dreary days. The cheerful smile of an American girl helps banish loneliness and boredom ... helps a man keep his chin up when things look pretty dark. And on the home front, wherever fire, flood or other disaster strikes, the Red Cross is ready with relief for the suffering. Yes, your Red Cross is literally mother to many millions ... friend of the friendless ... comrade in time of need. And its work must go on. Hundreds of thousands of our men are still overseas. They need the Red Cross, and they need it now. It is your Red Cross. The gift you give is its only income. Without you, the Red Cross can not carry on. Don't put off giving to the Red Cross.

DETAILS GIVEN ON SELECTING SITE AND PLANNING HOMESTEAD By FLORENCE MACKIE Home Agent Extreme care should be exer cised in selecting a site for the homestead, A mistake made In this important task cannot be easily corrected, and may have to be endured a. litetlme. The following factors should be considered In selecting a site: 1. The site selected should be convenient to a good all weather road. The highway department or other ofTlclals should be consulted to see If plans have been made for changing the main road. 2. The future use, of adjoining ■' lands should be considered. For example, a barn or other imdeslrable buildings might toe built Just across the road in front of the house. 3. Sufficient distance should be allowed on all sides for ef fective screen planting. 4. Where possible select site that Is higher than the road. The home site will be given a better setting U it can be lo cated on or near the top of a knoll. 5. The presence of trees Is de sirable. It will require 15 to 25 years for newly set trees to become effective as a back ground. 6. If the lawn is to extend from the house to the road, and Is to be mowed by a hand pushed lawn mower, the house should usually bo placed 100 tq 150 feet from the road. The following factors should be kept In mind while working out a plan of the residence: 1. A largo house, especially of colonial design, should never be planned for a site near the Voad or In a low area. This typo of architecture calls for an elevated site well back from the road, preferably with large trees. 2. If your house Is small or medium slued It may not be advisable to sot aside a room just for dining, Whether the dining space Is in a corner of the kitchen, back porch, the living room, or a separate room It should be light, cheerful, attractive an d pleasant.

Preliminary ofitlmatcs suggest ed, however, that even with phy sical standards lowered lo an “absolute minlmufm" Selective Service may meet difficulties in supplying an extra 75,000 re cruits whom the War Depart ment wans by April. Reports from several local boards In the national capital indicated that men rated quali fied for limited service are too few . to meet materially larger quotas, officials said. Estimates on a national basis are expected to require several more days. To Review Three Classes Responding to a War Depart ment demand that the draft fill its quota and also make up an accumulated deficit of 75,000 men, Selective Service headquar ters directed local boards to re view their lists of 4-Fs and two other deferred classes and make available for early Induction those deemed fit for limited mil itary duty. The 4-F class is composed of those previously rejected as be low physical standards. Also to be reviewed are records of men In class 2-AL composed of those who If not deferred because of their civilian occupations would be classed as 4-F: and class 2-CL consisting of farm workers who otherwise would be In 4-F. Of the national pool of .some 1,250,000 men between 18 and 25 Inclusive who have been turned down for the draft, only a small percentage has been rated here tofore as qualified for limited service. Estimates range down ward to as low as five per cent which would be only about 62,- 000, The limited service group was combed over once before, la.st May and June, at the army’s behest. Army Kcjccted 13 Per Cent Draft officials said the man ner in which the army applies its physical standards in exam ining draftees Is a maor factor in determining the number ac cepted for service. Last month 13 per cent of those who had been accepted In proinduction tests were turned down later by army examiners, it was said. New regulations are being drafted possibly changing the time given men called In the draft to file appeals. Under pres ent regulations officials doubt ed that many men newly re- classlfled would be inducted be fore the ond of March. FOR SALE—3 , modern plate Rluss show cases.

To Review Three Clas.ses Responding to a War Depart ment demand that the draft flll its quota and also make up an accumulated deflcit of 75,000 men, Selective Service headquar ters directed local boards to re view their lists of 4-Fs and two other deferred classes and make available for early induction those deemed flt for limited mil itary duty. The 4-F class Is composed ot those previously rejected as be low physical standards. Also to be reviewed are records of men in class 2-AL composed of those who if not deferred because ot their civilian occupations would be classed as 4-F; and class 2-CL consisting of farm workers who otherwise would be In 4-F. Of the national pool of .some 1,250,000 men between 18 and 25 inclusive who have been turned down for the draft, only a small percentage has been rated here tofore as quallfled for limited service. Estimates range down ward to as low as flve per cent wlilch would be only about 02,- 000. The limited service group was combed over once before, last May and June, at the army's behest. Army Rcjectcd 13 Per Cent Draft olTlclals said the man ner In which the army applies Its physical standards In exam ining draftees Is a maor factor In determining the number ac cepted for service. Last month 13 per cent of those who had been accepted In preinduction tests were turned down later by army examiners, It was said. New regulations are being drafted possibly changing the time given men called In the draft to flle appeals. Under pres ent regulations officials doubt ed that many men newly re- cla.4slfled would be inducted be fore the end of March. FOn SAIJ3—3 modern plate Klass show eases.

MOKE ABOUT Rat Control They drag matche.? Into their holes and create destructive fires. They play havoc in the farmers’ barns and cribs. They destroy eggs and young poultry. They also talte to the fields In spring and summer, where they damage growing crops and take toll from every harvest. They eat the eggs and nestings of the Bong birds and likewise attack the game birds, such as quail. These things alone are enough to condemn the rat-mouse tribe and justify all out war against It, but there are other reasons, too. CREATE PLAGUES OF DISEASE It Is definitely known that rats and mice are responsible for no less than three dreadful diseases that have caused human deaths In untold hundreds of thou- thousands. These diseases are bubonic plague (The Black Death), endemic typhus fever, and trichinosis. They spread other diseases besides. BUBONIC PLAGUE This has been one of the world’s worst scourges. The dis ease was described In the An cient Hebrews and one account of an epldcnilc may be found in I Samuel, Chapters 4, 5 and 0. This same disease plagues Eu rope for eleven hundred years. During this period It is believed that one-fourth of all the deaths were due to this scourge alone. One outbreak In tho 10th cen tury, known as "The Black Plague” killed one-tenth of the population in England. Tho dis ease then mysteriously subsided and It was thought wo would have no more of It when sud denly during World War I It broke out In China and Man churia and killed more than 25,000 people. It reached San Francisco and it was only by the expenditure of huge sums of money and heroic human ef fort that the dlseasf was stamped out before it spread to the entire United States. Bu bonic plague is a disease of rats. It Is transmissible to man. The control of the disease is the con trol of rats. RAT-TYPIIUS This is another disease of rats transmissible to man. Like ty phoid fever, It is characterized by 3 or 4 weeks of fever fol lowed by weeks of prostration. Death from the disease is not uncommon. This disease right now threatens to become com mon In the South and If rats and mice are not controlled we are liable to see the disease break out In epidemic propor tions. Rats Infected with typhus have been foimd in almost every community that has been sur veyed in the Southern part of the United States. TRICHINOSIS The name of this disease may be new to many readers of this article, but It is a common dis ease among rats, and hogs. throughout the world. Its his tory reaches far back into an cient times. Trichinosis is a worm-like parasite Invisible to the naked eye. It Is primarily a rat disease mostly through Its excreta. His droppings are de posited In garbage and the troughs of hogs. The worms bore through the Intestines of the pig and work their way by thou sands into the muscle structures and Internal organs. The dis ease contracted by man through pork that is not thoroughly cooked. Trichinosis reorganized ages ago when It was most prevalent due to the fact that people had no stoves and ate their meats only partly done. It was the prevalence of this disease that caused the ancient Hebrews to wipe out hog meat entirely from their food list and also this dls- eцse led to the flrst meat In spections by the priests before It could be marketed. This practice has evolved to our present day methods of meat inspection by trained govern ment Inspectors. For the above reason your health department strongly en dorses the present campaign to reduce the rat-mouse population in Davie county. It behooves every housekeeper, every farm er, every storekeeper and every restaurant operator In this coun ty to take a lively interest in this campaign— to be alert and to actively cooperate In an ef fort to poison, trap, capture and kill as many rats and mice as possible.•«i.It requires'no sharp-eyed ge nius to look about Davlo county and point out numerous rat feeding and rat breeding places. Both the health officer and san itary officer have already point ed out the tremendous need of cleaning up our towns and local premises. Both have made a plea for proper garbage collec tion and disposal. Too many of our private and public places are boarding rats free of charge— In fact inviting them to a free and open lunch counter.

Today after the greatest struggle in history, that title has been retained. The list of scryiccs your Red Cross has given our Servieenien — your Ser viceman — is ahnost endless. Blood plasma made the diiTerenee between life and death to many thousands of our men. Food parcels packed by the Red Cross meant survival to many of our men in prisoner of war camps. Medical kits and capture par* cels were provided wherever possible. Red Cross workers distributed release kits to thousands of prisoners as soon after their liberation as possible. Red Cross Clubs have sprung up by the hundreds all over the world ... wherever the Armed Forces went... sup* plying a warm touch of home for lonely, home* sick lads. Red Cross hospital workers talk to the men — laugh and play games with them — provide amusement and recreation facilities to shorten long, dreary days. The cheerful smile of an American girl helps banish loneliness and boredom .,. helps a man keep his chin up when things look pretty dark. And on the home front, wherever fire, flood or other disaster strikes, the Red Cross is ready with relief for the suffering. Yes, your Red Cross is literally mother to many millions ... friend of the friendless ... comrade in time of need. And its work must go on. Hundreds of thousands of our men are still overseas. They need the Red Cross, and they need it now. It is your Red Cross. The gift you give is its only income. Without you, the Red Cross can not carry on. Don’t put off giving to the Red Cross. Give today! YOUR Red Cross MUST CARRY ON . . .
