Hardee Describes Army Chaplain Service “The Army chaplain In the war Just past did a marveloue Job,” in the opinion of Rev. R. M. Hardee, who addressed the Mocksvllle Rotary club at the regular TuesdajI luncheon meet- ing. j Describing h^ personal work as an Army chiplain. Rev. Har dee pointed out and stressed that his own servlcf was not to be construed as being a "marvelous Job”. i "My own kcoompllshments were far from ^wonderful,” said Rev. Hardee, "because much of my service wa^ In this country and only once ^d I even see the other shore.” The World War I chaplain was sometimes a sort of handy man and nuisance around soldiers, said Rev. Hardee, but in the ear ly months of the war, the pree- ent-day "preacher in uniform” had to have a few accomplish ments before he went in the service. He had to be a college graduate, accepted by his own denominational faith, and had to have two years service as an active minister. "When we went Into the serv ice, a main part of our training consisted of learning to be non- denominational,” explained the Methodist minister. “We were put Into a room with a Protest ant minister, Д catholic priest, and a Jewish rabbi.” “Being a chaplain gave me faith in human nature.” Rev. Hardee said. "I didn’t have too much of that when 1 went in, but the army gave It to me.” Rev. Hardee concluded with a description of his return trip from France ая an army trans port chaplain. “As the tooat left Le Havre, I think three men of the entire 1200 were not gambling—and gambling for big stakes. I won dered when the time came for church services whether ttiere would be a half dozen to turn out. After a great deal of prep aration. I delivered my sermon the best way I could. The sun day was a beautiful one, and the space between decks waa Jam med with soldiers. 1 called upon them to clean themselves of the things they had done w<bUe in the service, and at'lhe same time I felt deeply moved. X asked If •raerg-WCTr -aHy шеи wna ■ leit they could and would rededi- cate themselves to the clean American life they had left, would they please step forward. I said that with misgivings, for 1 felt there would not be a sin gle man. I bowed my head, spoke my thoughts, and heard a Muffling and murmuring. I looked up to see almost every man close In as tightly as he could around that little Impro vised altar. *‘I thought It then, and I say It now: the heart of the Ameri can soldier Is great.” Rev. Hardee was Introduced by Rev. Henry sprinkle, program chairman. President Bill Pen nington briefly reviewed the splendid cooperation he has bad In 1946 from club members and called for the same spirit in the coming year. He described a Ro tary attendance contest between two teams which Is scheduled to start January l and run for six month«.

Mr. Ratledge did some good talking about his neigh bor’s, 'William Myera, ladlno clover and grass. He said every time Mr. Myers took his cows off tills ipasture they dropped about one4ialf gallon of milk per cow. Oeorge Barnhart, 3 miles South of Fork, did some terrac ing last year and liked it fine. He is doing more this year. N. B.

They were able to plow up some land benefited <by drainage that has not been plowed witih trac tors for years. L. It.

The beauty of lan^ guage and concept of the Masonic ritual deeply appealed to his esthetic instincts and he delighted in memorizing It In Its entirety. Olfted with a good speaking voice, it was a keen in tellectual enjoyment for him to participate in the various offlces of the lodge. That he was a past master at the art Is seen by the fact that his fellow members elevated him to the highest post when he was only 27 years old. Now his picture hangs on the wall of the Mocksvllle Lodge No. 134 Ancient Free and Accepted Masons beside the other immortals of the organization. It couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. JOB WELL DONE Bill Klmrey has done a fine Job as assistant county agent and he will be greatly missed by the farm families of Davie. His work has been mostly concerned with yoimg people, particularly 4-H club members. The 4-H clubs of this county have been doing out standing work under his leadership and the results will be shown in future years as the members take their place as adult folks. The excellent farm practices which they have learned are a great credit to themselves and their commun ity. Mr, Kimrey is getting a promotion which he has richly deserved. While we hate to see him go, he and his capable wife wlio has been of much help in the work with young people, leave with the best wishes of everybody. They will enrich the farm life of those with whom they come in con tact in Guilford county. To the friends and good • vustomers of this firm.

Greyhound Linet started this firtt peacetime year with almost exactly the tame equipment which had already carried more than half a hitlion nwg»eng»rii — troops and war workert— up, down, and acroit the Nation for four hectic war years. Many of the coachee were worn and weary. Some of them broke down. Replacement parts were hard to get. Worst of all, tome patsengers were, on occasion, left at sta tions, delayed, or inconvenienced because of the shortage of serviceable buses.% In spite of these handicaps, Greyhound did its level best to continue efficient service, and it succeeded in carrying far more pas sengers than it had served even in the bus iest pre-war years, During this difiicult period, Greyhound has been deeply ¿rate- iul lor the understandini and patience ol all who have traveled the ¿reat highway» of America, 1947 IncrMsad comfort, convenience, and travel pleasure are auured Greyhound travelers in 1947. Early in the coming year, the first shipment of 1,400 modern new coaches— on order for many months—will be deliv- anH imnKiHigtptv into servicc. They will have scores of improved features for added safety and riding ease. And this is only part of Greyhound’s long- planned, nationwide improvement pro gram, which includes the construction of fine new terminals in key cities, the mod ernization of wayside stations, the installa tion of two-way radio in all coaches for better schedule control, more additions to the present chain of 65 Greyhound Post Houses. As the year 1947 rolls along, more new buses will daily come from assembly lines to join the Greyhound fleet, and the im provement program, hampered by the material shortages of 1946, will gather speed. So, look forward to better highway travel—by Greyhound—beginning soon, and increasing each day ol 1947. WILKINS DRUG COMPANY Phone 21 WnA PAT «M per thoumnd log m e u m for any length cedar logK.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 10,1947 *‘A« «»• County News For Ewrybody”No.46 DAVIE TEACHERS LIVE ON PITTANCE, ACCO RD IN G TO FIGURES BY PRICE For the first year teaching, after four years of collegiate training, the average Davie coun ty teacher now makes $23.04 a week. The minimum pay of an unskilled worker In an Indus trial plant, however, Is $29.20 a week In the beginning. These figures were produced by Curtis Price, county school superintendent, as the speaker at the Rotary club Tuesday. The figures were compiled after teachers In the county were sent a questionnaire last No- vemiber asking how much It cost them to live for a year and how much Increase In salary they thought they should ask from the state leg^lature, Rather startling were the fig-: ures, according to Mr. Price’s compilation. For the first year, for instance, the average Davie county teach er gets $1,244. It costs her'il,291 to live for a year, including only the essentials. After the neces sary deductions are made for average Income tax payment and retirement fund, the Davie teacher lacks $210.13 in break ing even. Even if the first year teacher gets the Increase In salary she thinks the legislature should grant, which was $1,350 for the year, she would still be $105.13 behind. SrVEAR TEACHER For a teacher who has been in the profession for 8 years, the results of the questionnaire are still more startling. The pres ent salary after 8 years of teach ing Is $1,532.97. If it costs her $1,201 to live for a year, she has $17.75 left after paying the av erage' income tax and old age retirement. If the 8-year teacher got what she thinks the legislature should grant her in way of increase In salary—not quite 40 percent or $2,070 — she would have left $554.78 at the end of the year, after paying taxes and retire ment funds. Mr. Price explained the above figures in pointing out that at present this country has 200,000 teachers who have sub-standard certificates and that the per centage of those preparing to teach amounts to less each year because teachers are leaving the profession to enter other lines of endeavor. "There Is a controversy at present about what amount the legislature should grant in teacher salaries,” Mr. price said "The figures show that even 40 percent is not the increase It Is generally thought to be In way of more ‘take home’ pay. We are living In abnormal times and history shows that the percent age of money spent for educa tion always bears a constant ra tio of the wealth of the. com munity. We are only spending 1.5 percent of our national In come at present for education, while the liquor bill, lor instance, runs 3 percent.” A committee composed of E W. Junker, E. C. Morris, Robert McNeill and R. M. Hardee was appointed to make a recommen dation to the club on the pro posed Increase In teachers sal ary. M^^CLELLAN QUITS SOIL CONSERVATION POST TO ACCEPT FORSYTH POSITION Goes To Forsyth Q. W. McdJBUliAiN G. W. McClellan, soil conser vationist in Davie county since March 1, 1941, has resigned ef fective February .1 to become general manager of the Forsyth county farm and dairy and arti ficial breeding association. Mr. McClellan was selected for the post, a promotion for him, by the Forsyth county commission ers at a meeting last Monday, The Forsyth farm has 700 acres, dairy herd of Hereford and Holstein cattle and purebred hogs. Supplies from the farm and dairy arc furnished the county institutions. Mr. McClellan graduated from Clemson college in 1926 and his first year oat ot college he did cow testing for the Piedmont Dairy Assn. with headquarters in Oreenaboro. For SMi years he waa then manager of Woman’s Col lege farm at Greensboro and the following four years was manager of the chinqua-Penn Farms (it Reldsvllle.

He is married to the former Miss Clara Dickson of Greens boro and they have one son, ■RalBh, 7, ,ThR MffCleilanB .will live at a home on the farm prop erty in Forsyth. Mr. McCellan stated this week that he wished to express his appreciation to the folks of Da vie county for the fine coopera tion he has received while here. His selection for the new post was unsolicited and came after several candidates were con sidered. Mr. McClellan’s successor has not yet been chosen. The ap pointment, a federal post under civil service, will be made by the soil conservation service. Thrifty gardeners who have space for storage, grow enough vegetables not only to eat and to can, but to lay away for win ter use. They will have timed their plantings so that the stor able vegetables will be mature at 'the proper time—not too ear ly and not too late. The skin of the human abdo men has twice the elasticity of skin on the back.

Foods high In fat should never be cooked at temperatures high enough to cause the fat to smoke. Loss in vitamins Is very rapid after the fruit or vegetables have been peeled, and so these foods should be peeled juat before eat ing or cooking.

Test Tobacco Soils To Assure Results Rockingham county farmers are becoming Increasingly aware of the valué of testing tobacco soils to determine fertilizer and lime requirements for particular aelds, according to W. J. Reams, assistant farm agent for the State College Extension Service, Raleigh. A farmer Uvtnf near Madiaan was having dlflleulty growing quality tobacM on one field, Mr. Reams reports. It seems 'that the leaf would not ripen prop erly at maturity. A't his wlta’ end after much experimentation and worry, the farmer decided to send a sam ple of the troublesome soli to the Soil Testing Laboratory In Raleigh for analysis. He also asked for reeonunetidatlonf on fMtiire treatment of the field. The analysis disclosed that the soil the farmer had been trying to raise tobacco In waa very acid, having a PH of 4.6. which Is too sour for the orop. The farmer was advised to ap ply 1,000 .pounds of ground lime stone to each acre. IT PAYS TO ADVERTIS!

MOTHER GETS Q\m Ш fOUR~i SALARY OF TEACHERS On the front page is a story this week about salaries of teachers in Davie county. They get less than $30 a week when they start out and not much more, as money goes today, after spending years in the profession. We think the figures indicate pretty clearly that even with a 40 percent increase In salaries the teachers will still remain underpaid. They are the economic slaves of society. Why do we treat our teachers so niggardly when it comes to paying them? We accord them every other pub lic recognition befitting their worth to the commimity. Honestly, It Is worse than a dirty shame. It Is simply a reflection of the fact that too many of us do not care much about the welfare of children. Lack of money to pay for good teachers? Phooeyl The legislature will ap-| DINNER TIME FOR A HENN QUAD proprlate whatever money the people of this state think It GIFTS COME FOUR AT A TIME for the Henn quadruplets, who are reported getting along very well," In a Balthnore, Md., hospital. Above Is shown Mrs. Dorothy Henn, their mother, smiling at a quartet of rings sent her as a present for the four babies. needs for education. It’s the money of the people, Isn’t It? For years, we have been saying that any teacher who stayed In the profession today and who had to depend on that profession for a living had better get out—and do It before they starved, male or female. Thousands have left and other countless thousands have remained—-only be cause of an Inherent love for the work or because the right opportunity has not been found to make a change. What will happen to the children coming along today if good teachers are not to be found? God only knows. It Is tough enough when the best teathers, the very best, are found In the classrooms and administrative posts. Let’s just give the country back to the Indians—and let the kids, if any, get along the best way they can. I I f' i ■' St* DULIN Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Foster had as their Sunday dinner guests W. T.

Control Cattle Lice With DDT Treatment Cattle Hoe control can be ac complished by spraying, dipping, washing, or dusting the animals with DDT, according to J. T,. Conner, entomologist for the State college extension service. If the spray treatment is used, Conner says best results can be obtained through the use of a power sprayer capable of main taining at least-250 pounds of nozzle pressure. The coat of the entire animal must be thor oughly saturated, he points out, and particular attention should be paid to the head, ears, bris ket, estucheon, and the tall head and brush, A small hand sprayer may be used If a power sprayer is not available. Conner recommends that the solution for the wet treatment' be prepared by adding one ounce of 50 percent wettable DDT powder to each gallon ot water. A 5-10 pcrcent dust may be used for individual animals, Conner says, and should be ap plied at the rate cif a to 8 ounces per head of adult stock. Hegardles* of the type of treatment used, twa applications should be made—the second about three weeks after the first. DDT is also excellent for the control of flies,, fleas, mosquitoes and ticks on cattle,. Conner says, adding that it does not control the cattle grub or heel fly. Wash Horse’s Leg In Controlling Bots Horse bots cause a weakened condition of work stocks, par ticularly In the Pletlmont and mountain sections- of North Car olina, and Leland Case of State college, in charge of extension animal husbandry, says that the legs of the animals should be washed with warm water to hatch out 'the eggs now before they get Into the animal’s stom ach. The water should be about 110 degrees Fahrenheit and a sponge or rag should be used for the washing. Case says that if tlie legs or other parts of the body where the eggs appear are rub bed vigorously, the eggs will hatch out and the larvae quick ly die. Where the horse licks Itself, the warmth of the Ups causes the eggs to hatch and the larvae get into the mouth. After a few weeks they pass into the stom ach of the animal and then at tach themselves to the lining of the stomach. At this point they do most of their damage. Case says that a serious in- fe'station of horse bots will cause work anhnals to become weak and that treatment by a vet erinarian will be necessary to got the animals in condition for spring work.

M cC lellan Joe Alexander, near Greasy Corner, is pleased with help the Middle Yadkin district has giv en him In soil conservation work. He says a good part of his soil has been taken by erosion while fields were in row crops. He has In his farm plan expectation to produce more hays and pasture which of course promotes live stock and lessens erosion. The McBride boys on Mrs. Hugh Sanford’s farm near Farmington are highly, pleased with the terracing they did last spring. They plan to do more next spring. They had a pasture that was partly covered with water, part of It having a depth of waist deep. Last summer with the advice and assistance of the District these boys used around eighty dollars worth of dynamite to do a good job of drainage which beneflts around sixty acres, William Myers, near Bailey’s Chapel, thinks having terraced a fourteen acre field In the fall of 1945 brought about a double yield of corn In 1946 by changing from up and down the hill to around the hill farming. He not only runs his rows on the con tour, he .does his breaking, disk ing, sowing and combining this way. He says, “It is easier on machinery and less expensive to oi:)erate on the contour.” Zeb Brinkley, near B^aitty’s Store, was assisted in making a farm plan recently. Including renovating meadows, crop rota tions, terracing and a ilsh pond. L. S, Bowden and the Carter boys on the Bowden farm near Advance, were doing an excep tional job of selective harvest ing of mature trees recently. They were cutting some trees thait would have easily made a thousand board feet, yet they were leaving a good stand of younger trees to make more timber. Too little care is being given in proper woodland man agement, especially since it is so simple and profitable. More than 200,000 aweet po tato plants were set out this year In Halifax county, with a resulting yield of 20,000 bushels. Thirty-itwo of tihe growers are curing 6200 bushels in 13 coa verted tobacco barns. ELBAVIILE Insomnia Girl' Mr. and Mrs. J. o. Dunn of Winston-Salem spent the week end Bit home.

ENTERmSE PAGE 7 Ditching Dynamite Supplies Coming Nltro-glycerlne dynamite for ditching has been off the mar* ket for to m e weeks now tout ex tra supplies of the explosive are due to reach North Carolina dealers In January, says Howard EUls, extension agricultural en gineer at State college. This last fall some farmers at tempted to use ammonium dy namite and the gelatin type of explosives for ditching, when the nltro-glycerlne supplies be came short, but they found that these explosives were not satis factory for the ditching Job. Am monium dynamite Is Just the explosive to use for stumping but not for ditching. It is all right to use irialn caps and a fuse for stumping, but Ellis says that electric caps, lead wire, and a blasting machine or a "hot-shot” battery should by all means be used In setting off the explosives on a ditching Job. He explains that p li^ eapi and fuse ean be used tor ditch ing, but the ehancea for mU- flrea and accident* are much greater with this method. JUIU will begin a series of M ditching demonstrations In Jan> uary, principally In the e as tent and central sectons of the state, and he has invited all farmers interested In having this type of work done to attend the demon strations. Ellis suggests that farmers clear the right-of-way for the ditching Jobs planned for this winter and spring. He has prepared a safety cir cular on the use of dynamite. Those Interested should write the Agricultural Editor, State College, Raleigh, for Polder 88, entitled "Dynamite Do’s and Don’ta".

ENTERPRISE FRTOAY, JANUARY 10, 1947 PARiNTS, CHILDREN, DOUS AT CUSIODY П6НТ I was sauntering down the atreet about a year ago and along came my old friend, Jack Weaver, leadin’ a big work mule. "Where you goln’, Jdck, lead in’ that mule right through the middle oi town?” I asked him. “I’m takln’ him over to the dentist to get his teeth fixed,” he calmly replied. Now I've always had a lot oi xespect for Jack Weaver—folks eay he’s one of the best farmers In Baglerook county—but I knew that even If our dentist had gone mad and turned to grlndln’ mule’s teeth, the animal would have to have an appointment like everybody else and probably have to stand in line for hours, to boot, '"This I want to seel” I says to Jack, and we walked down the street together, us and the mule, pretty soon, we found ourselves at the edge of the achool yard where farmers from all over the area had gathered' with their horses and mules. “A workstock clinic,” Jack Informed me, as If I already knew. “The state college exten sion service holds these early 1ft the year all over North Carolina. Bert, here’s, gonna get a den tal Inspection,” he added sol emnly. I got around to talkin’ to the licensed veterinarian, who gave it to me straight. "The horse’s mouth is so constructed that Its teeth wear ой irregularly,” he told me, "and if this isn’t cor rected, the animal can’t chew properly, and digestive upsets develop.” Then he went on to tell me how the clinics provide free examination, treatment for bots, dental work, and other luch care at special prices. во, 1 thought it was about time I checked up on the 1947 clinics. I hustled out to State college and put the question up to Ice land Case, In charge of Exten sion Animal Husbandry there, and he said, sure enough, It was Just time for them again.' “We’re scheduling clinics in 67 counties during January,” he told me, "and urging every farmer who has workstock in poor con dition to check with his county agent on the time and place.” If a team’s gonna have what It takes to do heavy spring work, I guess now’s a good time to. take out a little "hospitalization Insurance”, FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question: How close should com be left in the drill?

Poultry Flocks Pay When Managed Well Well-managed poultry flocks are paying good dividends to North Carolina farmers in spite oif high feed costs, say county agents In their reports to exten sion ollictals of State college. In Stanly county. Assistant Agent V. A. Hune'ycutt tells about flocks producing from 55 t<y 80 per cent, adding that this is unusual because the birds started laying early in the sum mer. Many poultrymen say they are able to more than double feed costs when production Is high and eggs are selling for 50 cents or more a 4ozen. Huneycutt says ithat most of .the farmers In Stanley county who are producing their own grain have a good supply on hand now that will net them a greater cash Income from their flocks even if egg prices should drop. Five poultrymen In Gaston county , have made an average labor return above^feed costs of $4.71 per layer. They are: D. A. Kiser, Bessemer City, Route 2; Edward coiner, Stanley; w. C. Ford, Bessemer City, Route 1; P. M. Speagle, Dallas, Route 1; and George Stowe, Clover, S. C. R. 1. While the average bird lays aibout 100 eggs a year, the aver age of those who kept “flock records” In Gaston county this year was 201 eggs per bird. W. P.

Under a now directive from the War Department, certain partially disabled c o m b a. t Tl'Hliihn !1Cj cepted In the Regular Army. In I order to qualify, the veteran , must bo able to meet all other ; standards and qualifleatlons nec essary to enlist In the army with the exception ol his combat in curred disability. His physeal condition must be such that he is able to care for his personal needs unaided and further hos- I pltallzatlon or loss ot time is not expected. He must also be capa ble of performing the duties of one of many military occupa tional specialties, or of being trained in one of those special ties. Combat wounded veterans who meet these qualifications will be , enlisted In the Regular Army for * three years unasslgned. That means that they will not be giv en a choice of branch ot service. The reason for this Is that tbelr service will be ot a limited na ture, and they will have to be placed In the branch ot service where their skills may best be utilized. These men will be enlisted in the grade they held at the time ithey were dUchtrged from the service, if they enlist on or be-, fore January 33st of this year, regardless of when they were discharged, After January 31st, these men will be enlisted in their old grade only if they re- enllst within 20 days of the date of discharge. All others will bo enlisted In the grade of private. Capt. Cooper urges all combat w'^jjnded veterans, who are In terested in this offer, to con tact him or a member of the staff ot the local Recruiting (Sub) Station at once for full Information. 242 P.O.

THE COUNTY LIBRARY It has been on our mind for quite some time to speak our highest praise of the Davie county library which is ■ located in comfortable quarters in the basement of the courthouse. Under the able direction of Mrs. Blanche Clement, librarian, the library is rapidly growing. The library now owns nearly 3,500 books and last year had a circulation of nearly 14,000. When it is recalled that when any person takes a book home it is often read by one or more members of the same family, it is seen that between 25,000 and 40, ООО books were read. Every month the library gets many new books—fiction, non-fiction, books for young people and adults. Those who have not been patrons of the Ubrary should drop in and see Mrs. Clement. She is courteous and anxious to see that everybody gets what they want to read. Incidentally, it might be mentioned that the library also'has a flle of daily newspapers and magazines. When folks come to town and have some time on their hands it is a good place, particularly for the ladies and young folks, to rest, and read. It might be mentioned right here, too, those who have magazines they have read might give them to the library. There is always a demand for more maga zines than the library can accomodate. We would like, too, to give a lusty pat on the back to the members of the library board. They do their work for no pay except the sastisfaction of helping the cultural growth oi the county. M ahiêîf- Conversation By Bill Dryden Well, now that Christmas Js over and New Year’s is over, maybe we can all settle down to nonnal again. The subject of e.w Year’s resolutions comes to mind at this time, but the sub ject Itself has been written on, talked about, re-made, broken again and generally hastied up so badly that the making of New Year’s resolutions is a sore topic with most of us. Let no more be said on that score. PRESIDENT SEEKS LOWER PRICES, H IG H TAXES, LESS LABOR DEM ANDS Washington.—President Tru man last week called on busi ness to cut prices, on Congress to maintain high taxes, and on laibor to be moderate In wage demands. He also asked extension of be based on "individual situa tions throughout the economy.” Fleas for High Taxes The president also renewed his plea that high wartime taxes be allowed to stand.

Purcliasing Power Drops But a “serious” drop in the purchasing power of wages, caused by soaring prices, now threatens the attainment of these goals, Mr. Truman said. He reasoned: ‘‘If price and wage adjust- mlttee told a reporter: “I can't agree with the presi dent’s conclusion that we can't cut taxes, because we are going to adopt a budget that will en able us to cut taxes,” Mr. Truman said the courses he chartered are essential to ssutain Jobs and production in a nation which, as 1947 opens, “has never been so strong or so prosperous.” The Danger Ahead The danger ahead, he said, is that “consumer buying will fal ter” because price Increases have cut into the public's pur chasing power. To prevent this from leading to factory lay-offs and curtailed production, he urged prompt steps to bolster buying power. He emphasized price cuts more heavily than wage increases, as the way to do it. And In a complete turn-about from the government’a 1946 pro gram of supporting nation-wide “pattern" wag« inoreaaei. th« f rains should monts are not made—and made soon enough—there is danger that consumer buying will fal ter, orders to manufacturers will decllnc, production will drop, and unemployment will grow.' An 'increase in wages alone could not solve the problem; therefore a “major approach” to bringing purchasing power Into line with the nation’s productive capacity “must be through re duced prices.” “Prices Should Be Reduced” “Business should reduce prices wherever possible In order to bring about the necessary In crease in consumer purchasing power to bolster their markets,” said the report. And labor, "for Its own ad vantage as well as that of the country at large, . . . should re frain from excessive wage in creases.” It has been estima^d that a swarm of beei. when it leaves the mother htva, constitutes from 1.000 to e,VO b«M. Many Davleites are «pending some of their evenings current ly at local basketball games, both with high school teams in competition with each other and also amateurs from various com munities on the floor aiming for the basket, , One game seen recently fea tured the Mocksvllle-Advance high schools both boys and girls. The upshot of the contests was that the Mocksvllle boys won and the girls lost, but the score Itself wasn’t too Important. It was the way the games were played. Basketball Is an ex tremely strenuous sport, more so than football, wblcii may seem strange to some. And those ten boys battled with the ball till It seemed they would all drop from sheer exhaustion. To one who attends these games regularly, or even Just once or twice a sea son, all the little details of the game and the sidelights become commonplace. But If you haven’t seen a game for three or four years, the whole court becomes alive with things you had for gotten existed. Both the Mocksvllle and the Advance cheerleaders had a fas cinating line-up of yells of all kinds. Probably the most inter esting one was this; “There’s a team over here, There’s a team over there, But the team over there Ain’t goin’ nowherel . . .” Cheerleaders sure have a lot oi spunk in the first place. It seems. Now how would you feel if someone asked you to get out in front of what usually turns out to be a rather uncoopera tive audience, and maybe you/ can start your cheer with all the confidence in the world—if you grit your teeth and bear It. But the time when one really feels like a fool is at the end ot the cheer. It seems quieter than a tomb then, because there’s Usu ally no response after the yell leader has finished. And the little boys, getting underfoot at the games like a pack of smali animals, running breathlessly and screaming what sounds like bloody murder — thpv'ra n11 nhniif .'IS m u ch я saying that «VM • sUcht псы - Sion in buaineu eould tuity re- . duce the revenue of the state by 118,000,00» • Speaker Pearsall and lA.

THE LEGISLATURE ’The 1947 session of the North Carolina General Assembly con vened Wednaiday and elected Thomas J. Pearsall of Nash county u speaker of the House. Joe Blythe of Mecklenburg was chosen president pro-tem of the Senate. Lt. Got. L. Y. Ballen tlne will preside over the Sen ate. Among the many suggestions, he asked for a 20 per cent raise for teachers and lower paid em ployes of the state, an enlarge ment of the post-war cushion fund from $20,000,000 to $30,000,- 000, the adoption of the recom mendation of the medical care commission, calling for an Im proved health and hospital pro gram and a teaching hospital at Chapel НШ, bat the governor warned that it might not be pos sible or practical to enact the whole program during {he next biennium.

McClellan Bud Broadway, on W. H. Hob son’s farm near Oreasy Corner, has a grcon field where it was a red one before last fall. The Middle Yadkin district encour aged these men to put this land In alfalfa to meet their hay needs and they did a good Job.

Ernest appreciates the Assistance the District gave him In making farm plans to hold some of his fields together. He plans to use kudzu and alfalfa on some excessive slopes for ero sion control, hay or pasture; have a good rotation, do some terracing, develop soma good pasture and take care of his woodland. Otis Poplin, returned veteran near Fork, recently bought a small farm near Fork and has made a plan to save and Im prove It by terracing, rotation of crops, seeding pasture, and seed ing alfalfa. ' Bud Stroud, son of . Sam Stroud, near County Line, says our cows fight over alfalfa hay when we 'put some of It and some lespedeza In the hay rack.

EXAMINES 963 SCHOOL CHILDREN; 634 HAVE DEFECTS The health department has completed the medical examina tion ot 063 school children In Davie county. These children were referred to the health de partment for examination by the teachers in the schools and the .public health nurses who had previously screened out the pupils and listed those who had apparent defects and those who seemed to be in need of medical or dental care. There were many other children besides the 963 who needed dental care that were not referred to the health officer. Of the 963 children examined there were 634 found with de fects of one kind or another which should be corrected so that the chlW will have the oppor tunity to carry on his school work to the beat of his ability. It is important that a child should hear and see aa well as possible. ■Tnere'were-m-TmndrBirTBiwTBur to eye specialists and 57 referred for hearing. Four of these 57 chllden have been recommended for special classroom work. Sev eral others were recommended for hearing aids, other common defects found were bad teeth— 123, bad tonsils — 182, and 170 had both bad tonsils and teeth. Only 68 children showed signs of malnutrition, six with skin defects, and 91 wltli other de fects. Letters have been written to parents in the case of each of these 634 children. The letter lists the defects found and sug gests that the child be referred to family physician or dentist for further consideration and advice. There Is not any deflnitive treatment such as dental repair, tonsil operations, fitting of glass es and the like, done in any of the health clinics. Any parent may feel free to consult the health officer In regard to de fects reported. The examinations and diagnosis in the children recently examined are not con clusive. This should come, from the private physician or special ist. In many instances it was suggested that the child be brought by the parent to the clinic for a recheck or a more complete study. This has proven to be more satisfactory because of the adverse conditions in the schools. It is hoped that the groups interested In child health and welfare will help do some thing toward correcting these defects. In some cases treatment is ex pensive and help will be needed. There is some state funds that can be used provided local com munities will match the amount provided by the state, p, T. Ai’s and any other civic groups can give money for this purpose. In many instances, that is how the funds have been matched in other communities.

The Millers took an easy vic tory from the Harmony Stars at Harmony on Monday night to the tune of 53 to 34. Stiff op position at King forced a hard- played contest which saw the Millers emerge victorious 48 to 47 only after halting a deter mined last minute drive of Kind’s quintet by staging a sen sational last minute freezing act to control the furious play. The highlight of the '•»■«‘k was the Miller's 46 to 44 Over the star-studded Miller’s Creek team of Wilkes county.

NEED OF BETTER HEALTH IN STATE IS DISCUSSED AT ROTARY MEETING In order that every farm fam ily in this state will be within at least an hour's ride of a good ho.9pital and that the health of the state may be improved from its present "disgraceful" rank ing, it is planned to spend 48 million in the state within five years, Dr. Frank B. Marsh of Salsbury, guest speaker, told lo cal Rotarlans at their Tuesday meeting. Dr. Marsh discussed "Good Health, the No. 1 Need in North Carolina," and was introduced by Dr. Bill Long, program chair man. Dr, Marsh cited many figures showing the deplorable state of health In this state. North Car olina led all other states during the last war in physical rejec tions for military duty. Seventy- three percent of the people live in the rural areas but have only 34% of the doctors. Thirty-four of the counties, including Davie, have no hospital beds and 31 of the counties have less than two beds per thousand population. The state needs 1,300 more doctors and 6,000 more hospital beds. The plan is to supply both. In addition to more nurses and technicians, by a 4-year medical school to supplement what Bow man Gray and Duke are doing; have a loan fund for doctors who there are none. . ^ To pay for the cost of the health program Dr. Marsh said the federal government would supply, through the Medical Care commission, $3,482,000 to this state for flve years; the state will agree to practice in their- home counties;' establish hospi tals' and health centers where would be asked to match that amount and the remaining 10 million of the 48 million would come from the local communi ties. Bob McNeill, Bob Hardee and Lester Martin were appointed as a committee to Investigate the feasibility of the location of a medical unit of the national guard here and report back to the club. The appointment arose after George Rowland, being advised as mayor that such a unit could be located here, asked the club to consider endorsement of the idea. Dave Rankin presided in the absence of President Bill Pen nington and announced that the club would dedicate the hut at a meeting on Feb. 18 when Dr. I. G. Greer of Thomasvilie would be the speaker. Rev. R. G. McClamrock was a guest. A baked ham luncheon was served by the Methodist ladies.

He began this work by terracing and fllilng up gullies. He is well pleased with his terrace system and plans to get some organic matter in the soil to farther retard erosion. J. J. Griffith, near County Line, was the first man in Davie county to make a farm plan for soil conservation about ten years ago. He has really done a goo.d job of soil building and conser vation. His yields and income are much more and he continues to like the practices. He recent ly did some more terracing.

At least they cannot do their best work. Inflrmities come Inevitably with old age, but even many of these inflrmities can be treated to prolong life. On thè front page of the paper this week are two stories relative to health. One is the fact that 634 school children out of 936 had some kind of defect which was fotmd by members of the local health department. Cor rections of teeth, tonsils, eyes, appear to be things which are neglected because they do not at first hand appear dangerous to health. But they can and do become serious later if they are not corrected early in life when they should. For Instance, how many péople do you know who neglected their teeth and one day when they HAD TO GO TO THE DOCTOR because of some serious ailment it was found that one of the first things done was to remove all of the infected teeth—if the person was able to have it done? The other story came out of the Rotary club where Dr. Frank Marsh talked about the deplorable health con ditions in this state, lack of doctors and hospitals and what it proposed to do about it. We want to say right here that counties like Davie need and will greatly benefit by the "Good Health” pro- gram. Women and babies will have better care at child birth. Those who need periodic examination and treat ment can get it—without a burdensome cost of carrying health insurance. Hospitalization can be secured with out delay and the inconvenience, to say nothing of the danger of dying before reaching the hospital, of being hauled to another county. All of us should realize that it is as necessary to long life to see the doctor now and then as it is to see the gro- ceryman from day to day. And a doctor and hospital should be as readily available as the groceryman.

Hoyle Sink ordered the jurors back to their room, after which they returned, and the foreman, L. H. Je.-îsup, said for each defendant: “Guilty of rape as charged In the bill of Indictment." Appeal Notices Are Posted Counsel for both defendants made motions to set aside the verdict and for a new trial, and both motions were denied. Ap peal notices to the Supreme court were posted by both de fendants. Turning to the jury following the verdict. Judge Sink com mented: "The manner of performance of your duty is in keeping with the dignity of the manhood of the State of North Carolina . . . If the virtue of womanhood and the sacrodness of the home are destroyed, there Is nothing left to live for.” When the Jury first filed In with its verdict, Bell, a 24-year- old resident of the Roaring River' community of Wilkes county, sobbed Inaudlbly on the shoulder of his wife, who had been with him throughout the trial. Littéral, tall and dark Wln- stcn-Salem man, for whom a plea of insanity failed, remained cahn, smoked, and chatted with his mother and sister in the In- term between the verdlct-and- death sentence. Peggy Shore, the prosecutrix whose story of being the object of assaults by Littéral and Bell was never contradicted during the trial, waited In the Wilkes Health Department offices, near the courtroom, for the end of the proceedings. Miss Shore Is Relieved Tlie girl, for \yhom the ordeal of the week-long trial had been so great that she collapsed on the witness stand and fainted a number of other times, merely said, "I am relieved.” The trial opened Monday morning with the two-day task of selection of jurors and reached a climax Wednesday when Peggy Shore, in three-hour testimony, related how she was kidnaped, raped twice by eacli defendant, was beaten, cut by a knife in the hands of Littéral, and left abandoned at daybreak near the mountain farm home of Mr. and Mrs. James Bowling, near Bristol, Tenn., 120 miles from where she was thrown into the car at 11:15 p.m. August 23. Solicitor Avalon Hall gave much credit for succeMful pro«* ecutlon of the case to F, B. 1. agents, whose Investigation led to charges of kidnaping against Lltteral and Bell In Federal court, and whose evidence and signed confessions by the two men were used In the rape trial. Argument of counsel in the case .began at noon Friday' and was completed at 3:45 pjn. Sat urday. Judge Sink delivered an hour and one-half charge to the Jury.

Within the life of young citizens who vote for the first time this year, the electric power used In America has increased three-fold . . . while cost to the user has grown steadily less. Electricity Is so much a part of the lives of these young people that they are scarcely conscious of the ways It serves them. It Is, like the air they interrupted. Vet, through every year in the lives of this new generation, the business- owned power companies of the nation have been learning . . . experi menting . . . testing . . . to make electric power abundant and economical. Today, superheated steam and tremendous pressure produce three times as much power as formerly. This economical, generation is matched by improved transmission and distribution.

O. L. Hardee of the regular army and Major A. E. Nowlan o{ the adjutant gen eral’s department told Rotarlans at their meeting last Tueaday. The club voted to врошюг the location of a unit here and ap pointed Oeorge W. Rowland, Ce cil Morris and Dr. W. M. Long as a committee to ask the Amer ican Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, city and county officials to Join the sponsorship. A full unit would consist of not less than 107 men but one could be established with 40 men. It was explained. At the out set it would be necessary to have я place to meet and drill, room ''for equipment and uniforms. The army officers and members of the above committee,. In ad dition to a committee named last week to find out about the feasibility of auch a unit, made a tour of the town Tuesday af ternoon seeking possible sites. The gymnasium of the local high school appeared to be in high favor. Colonel Hardee explained that the unit would, It was hoped, eventually have an armory, which would toe largely financed by federal money and which would serve as a community center. It ' was desired to or ganize a unit now so that the county Would be in a favorable position when federal funds, ex pected before lone, are available. The advantages of a local guard unit for home protection and training In case of war were pointed out. A committee composed of Bob MoNelll, Bob Hardee, brother of Colonel Hardee, and Dr. Lester Martin were appointed last week and secured the two army of ficers for today after consulta tion with Raymond Siler, pro gram chairman for the meeting. Millers Play Here Tonight The fast Erlanger quintet of Lexington brought an end to the Millers' string of victories as they defeated the local cagers in a close and hard fought game 51 to 48 on the Erlanger court. Pre viously, the Millers had en countered little trouble in dis posing of three foes, such as the Landis American Legion team and the Catawba County Inva ders, by substantial scores. The Erlanger cagers Jumped Into an early lead which they extended to 31 to 20 score for a 11 point lead at the half. The Millers fought back during the second half to whittle this lead down and enter the final quar ter trailing by six points. Dur ing the fast and furious play of the final minutes the Millers al most overhauled the rival quan- tet, as Tal Bean, with 28 seconds remaining to play, dropped through a foul shot to make the score 49 to 48 In favor of Br- langer. However, in the final second, White of Erlanger iced the game for his side, as he potted a side shot and made the final score read SI to 48. This rivalry between Erlanger and MocksvUle will be renewed on the local court Iriday nlgMf January 31, starting at 8 o’clock. The Millers are set to avenge the defeat encountered at Lexing ton, and a close and exciting contest looms for the local fans.

The two men involved are “Blondle” Culberson, operator o f the tavern, and Clyde Fesper- man, an employee. Fesperman was the one who got hit over the head by Culberson and the latter was then shot by Fesper man. H. R. Eaton, Cooleemee deputy sheriff, said he was called to th« tavern about 10:30 p.m. last Sun day night. He found no one there; walked around In front of the place, shortly located Fes> perman, who appeared to be drinking. He took him inside the tavern, removed a gun from him and shortly Culberson show ed up. Culberson did not ap pear to be hurt, but was very pale. The deputy took Fesper man to a local doctor, who ad vised taking him to the hospital for treatment. He was taken to the Rowan Memorial hospital In Salisbury, having head Injuries, several t#eth knocked out and some broken off. Later the deputy found that CulbetMn had been admitted to the hoepltal also, his wife hav ing brought him. The bullet went through his right leg with out hitting any bones. Fesperman was released from the hospital on Tuesday and was Immediately taken up by the Davle officers, who charged him with assault with deadly weapon with intent to kill. His bond was placed at $5,000 and falling to post It, was placed in the Davle Jaii; Late Tuesday Fesperman’s bond was reduced to $2,000. He posted this bond and was releas ed. He said he was leaving North Cooleemee Immediately, accord ing to Mr. Eaton. No disposition has been made of Culberson, pending his recov ery. Culberson was the one who shot Bo Spillman last year in an escapade. The wood Ibis Is the only stork found In America.

IRATE H OUSEW IVESCAUGHT W ITH NO W ATER; RELIEF STILL NOT IN SIGHT EVERYBODY’S HAPPY AS MARSHALL TAKES OVER Irate housewives of Mocks vUle have done some plain and fancy grumbling here lately about the lack of water, partic ularly in the evening when they had no water at supper time for cooking, dish waidiing and bath ing. "Grumbling” is only a poUte word for it—a case where siz zling tongues and frayed tem pers have peeled the verbal hide off everybody. Including mem bers of the town board, in sight or at the other end of a' tele phone line. What made the homekeeper madder than anything else is that they have been caught with their water down and out—had not been forewarned that the supply would be low' so that they could scare up every kind of kitchen utensil to catch a few precious drops in the afternoon to tide them over the supper hour. Business houses have been an noyed, too, in the afternoon to find suddenly that they had no water. There are several causes for the shortage and no relief is in sight for the immediate present, according to S. M. Call, who keeps Up with such matters for the town. Until the last freeze enough water accumulated overnight In the city tank to last during the following day, Mr. CaU said. Hugh Lagle, city engineer, check ed up business houses and homes after the freeze and found that many had cut off the water to keep it from freezing and left a leak In the cutoffs. Then during the late protract* ed rains many basements flood* ed and Jet pumps using water were employed to baU out the basements. Finally, about 33 new water connections have been made In the town since the late faU of 1948. This probably accounts for most of the lack of adequate water. When wUl the new water sys tem be in operation in Mocks vUle? Sixty days is the mini mum. It WiU take that long to complete the work, according to those who are doing it. All of the equipment is here or shipped except two vertical motors which win be at Bear creek. ’Those motors will be the bottleneck unless they arrive by the time the rest of the work Is done. The earliest shipping date yet se cured for them Is April delivery. Meanwhile, the only water answer appears to be: be spar ing with It, sister—and bathe Johnnie only on Saturday night —a sponge bath in a wash pan. Folks Uke Col. W. 6. Murchi son sure must be laughing at the distress of the town folks. He has two electric pumps In weus and a third one with the regu lar well bucket and rope. Could you spare a well. Colonel?

The plan, as outlned In the map, calls for the construction of nine new hospitals, Including the 400-bed state teaching hos pital at Chapel Hill, and 24 ru- roV _ HonliJj. - RETIRING SECRETARY OF STATE James F. Byrnes (right) beams happily as he gives a hearty greeting to his successor, Gen. George C. Marshall, shortly after the latter had taken the oath of oltice. President Truman, In whoso office the ceremony was staged, also is In high gfiod humor. Byrnes and Marshall later want Into conference to consider matters of ma jor Importance facing State Department. Counties getting new hospi tals under the proposed plan would be Orange (the 400-bed teaching hospital to be located adjacent to the UiUnivcrslty School of Medicine), Madison, Yancey, Chatham, Franklin, Scotland, Bladen, Sampson and. Pender. Health centers would be built In Graham, Swain, Clay, Watau ga, Alexander, Yadkin, Davle, Alleghany, Stokes, Montgomery, Caswell, Warren, Hoke, North ampton, Greene, Jones, Pamlico, Washington, Gates, Currituck, Perquimans, Bertie, Dare and Hyde counties. The proposed allocation of beds lists 1,500 beds to mental hospitals, 700 to tuberculosis hos pitals, 400 to health (medical) centers, 400 to the university teaching hospital, and 4,200 to be distrlblted on a basis of need to new hospitals and for en largement of existing hospitals. Also, It Is noted, the state ex pects to acquire a large part of Camp Butner at Durham and use Its 3,374 haspital beds for mental patients, thereby in creasing new mental beds to 4,- 874 and the total new beds for all hospitals to 10,574. In announcing the commis sion’s suggested five-year plan, Executive Secretary Dr. John A. Ferrell emphasized that the plans are tentative and contin gent on possible revision, ap proval of U. 8. Pubhc Health service, appropriations by Con gress anticipated under the Hill- Burton hospital aid bill, and an ticipated state appropriations equal to federal funds for North Cflrnlna----------------------------------------- The five-year health plan, Ferrell said, will cost approxi mately $48,000,000, one-third of which would be paid by federal grant under provisions of the Hlll-Burton bill. The remaining two-thirds would be paid in equal part by state and local agencies. The announcement from the Medical Care commission was the first made by the organiza tion relative to location of new hospitals and health, centers called for In the Good Health plan. More than two years of Inves tigation of the state’s health situation by scores of experts engaged by the commission pre ceded formiilation of the plan. Population figures uüed by the commission as a basis for de termining the location of hos pital units are 1943 estimates and not from the 1940 census. This was required by the federal reg ulations governing the expendi ture of Hlll-Burton funds, - PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

Health Officer We should know by this time that our local health depart ment has a division of sanita tion. In simple language, san itation means the promotion of health by close attention to cleanliness. The oldest and at one time, the most extensive of all the activities of a’ well-or ganized public health unit was this effort to control the spread of disease and to prevent dis ease by encouraging public clean liness and doing away with health risks crcated by nui sances and unsanitary condi tions. The division of sanitation in our local health unit at this time Is headed by Carl E. Shell, who is a reasonable man and a well qualified sanitarian. It is the duty of this officer to in spect cafes, hotels, lunchrooms, soda fountains, markets, slaugh ter pens and all other places in the community that offer foods and accommodations to the public for monetary considera tions. He undertakes to find out If our foods come from healthy sources and if they are handled in a sanitary manner. He under takes to find out if there are facilities for properly refrigerat ing and storing foods Intended for public consumption, or whether they are poorly kept and exposed to rats and roaches and filth. He attempts to see that John J. Public gets a clean glass, a clean plate and clean knife and fork, and that his food Is prepared in a clean place by healthy people. He inspects and exan?ines into our public milk supply, our public water supply, our sewage and waste disposal systems, and he seeks on all sides to correct any un sanitary conditions that niay exist. All of this is done with kindly intentions to promote the nterest and co-operation of both the operator and the public con sumer. When necessary, how ever, this officer can and does exercise his legal authority to compel changes in behalf of san itation and the public health. We should all appreciate the protection afforded us by pure water supplies, wholesome milk supplies and sage sewagci dis posal. We should all back up every effort to maintain clean, healthy public accommodations, such as restaurants, hotels, pub lic toilets, and the like. More over, when it becomes necessary we should feel free to consult our health department on mat ters of both private and public sanitation. Because there are so many diseases .that may spread through unsafe sewage disposal and unprotected water supplies, it is important that private In dividuals contact our sanitary division for advice before the actual construction of wells and sewage disposal plants. The ser vice of the sanitary officer is available to anyone wishing pro fessional advice on these sub jects. Mr. Shell covers a large territory, but he may be con tacted through the local health clinic, the county nurse, or by mall addressed to the Depart ment of Sanitation, Davie, Stokes, Yadkin District Health Department, Mocksvllle, N.

C., as Second- Clau Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 NATIONAL GUARD UNIT Davie county has a chance to get a medical unit of the national guard here and possibly an armory in the future. These facts were revealed at the meeting of the Rotary club Tuesday when Colonel Hlardee and Major Nowlan told how it could be done. The unit would ultimately comprise at least 100 men. The boys would be paid for their drilling one night a week and Colonel Hardee estimated that between $35,000 and $40,000 more money would result from the establishment of the unit. He and Major Nowlan aire now active in organizing units throughout the state and know what'they are talking about. It was pointed out that if a unit was organized here now, it would place the local guard in a fine position to get an armory when the federal government makes appropria tions shortly for such institutions. As was stated, the federal government would bear about 75 percent of the cost of the armory and such a building would indeed be a needed addition to the town and county. There are lots of boys in the county who have had military service who could join the guard and get the extra money without interfering with their regular work. There are others without any training to whom it should appeal. The national guard has performed a fine service to their country in war and peace. As Colonel Hardee said,8. Labor legislation will make in the last war there were 18 divisions of the guard in it impossble for labor leaders to As Is our custom, the editor and his wife attended the In stitute of the N. c. Press asso ciation last week In Chapel HUÍ and Durham, the meeting last ing two days. Highlights are as follows: Baacom N. Timmons, Wash ington correspondent for more than 30 years, spoke Thursday night, giving his observations on the Washington scene. Some of them were, both publicly spoken and expressed In conversation with the editor: 1. Prediction tha Thomas E. Dewey and Harry S. Truman will be the next, pre.tldentlal nomi nees. 2. Tax cuts will average some 10 to 12 percent, not 20 percent as talked of. 3. Consolidation of the armed forces does not mean much In the way of reduced expenditures or more efficiency—as matters now stand. 4. Streamlining of Congress by abolishing many committees won’t speed legislation greatly. '5. The U. S. Supreme court may render a S-4 decision In favor of the government against John L. Lewis and the mine! tures, radio, recordings, still pictures, television. Emphasizing the need of education In a de mocracy, speakers Included Paul Green, playrlght and author of “The Lost Colony”: James Street, novelist, who recently sold the rights to his book, “The Gauntlet,” to the niovles for a reported $400,000: Noel Houston, author; Stuart Sechrlest, news photographer: L.

The soup was oyster bisque—a de lightful mouthful for which the editor would be pleased to know the recipe. The speaker for the dinner was Sidney S. Alderman, general counsel for the Southern Rail way in Washington, who served with Justice Robert Jackson from November, 1945, to August, 1946, as prosecuting attorney of the Nuernberg trials.

It is now planned to double the size of the guard in this state—from some 6,500 to 13,000. Here is a good chance for Davie folks to get another fine project going. We commend the Rotary club on its wisdom in stating that they wished merely to “get the ball rolling” and secure the full cooperation of former service men in the Legion and foreign vets, as well as city and county officials. A small investment of time and money liere will reap rich rewards in the future.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR E> f f>n Г\Г n r.r.1 1 « Expresses Thanks For Cooperation Dear Mr. McQuage: It 1.S with a degree of sadness that I leave Davie county to go to my new work In Forsyth. At the same time it Is a source of pleasure to know that I’ve had a part In promoting the Middle Yadkin District work here. The progress Is not as we would like to have seen it, but it Is a pleasure to see pleased farmers, Improved homes and profitable yields with le.ss work and much less loss of soil. Unfortunately, a good many people have thought the district was of a political nature, which is entirely wrong, but ]>eople are finding out that conservation pays and are taking much more Interest in tho work. I am grateful to all tho people that have contributed to the im portant soli conservation work. I am deeply grateful to the Mocksville Enterprise for' the ^fnlnnhln cr\nnrt though some scarcities will still prevail.

IT PAYS TO advertise On these rainy afternoons, whenever a group of two or more persons gathers for the purpose of exchanging tales—usually tall ones—there is bound to come up the subject of how hard cer tain people work to maintain a livelihood. Such was the situation one af ternoon recently. No one knows how the subject came up—did you ever notice how hard It is to recall that most of the time? A topic of discussion Is present ed, hashed over, variations of it are explained, and then the talk ers get off on something else, and none of them could tell how any certain subject came up. Anyhow,Hanes Yates and John Waters, dispensers of soda, good will and hospitality to people on and near the square, got to talk ing about hard work. There is still a question in the minds of some whether these two are qualified to report on that Item. John thinks he Is, however, and the story he told Illustrates his reasoning. Seems John was a tyke some- wthat less than 12 years of age, and one of the flrst Jobs he had. If not the first, was with Hanes Chair and Novelty Co. John’s father was a foreman at the plant, and he had the lad really puttin’ out some effort. Chairs In those days .were put together mainly with large screws, so tho story goes, and an electric screw driver was unknown to the trade at that early date. Little John was hoisted one day atop one of those big chairs, romping on that screwdriver, and trying to properly place a flve-lnch screw. Mr. Hanes came along about that time, John says, and re marked: “Boy, who put you on that job?” "I told him my Daddy did,” John describes. “Well, better get off that—too big a job—'hard work—a man’s job—man’s job—too big for a boy—bettor got off it.” And Mr. Hanes continued on his way. Well, thought John, here’s where I get a break. They can’t keep me on this now. I’ll have to get something easier to do. So he went and told Sanford Nall, and Mr. Nall replied, “Well, we’ll see.” John went back to working on those screws with a light heart, because it couldn’t be long be fore he’d be off that hard Job. Well, he went home to supper —It was on a week end—and his father didn't mention it all through supper and before bed time, nor all week end long. So John waited till the Mon day morning whistle blew, and LEGISLATURE (A Weekly Feature While the General Assembly Is In Session) The Legislature has moved into its third week with only one accomplishment worthy of note. A supplemental pay bill was finally accepted last Thurs day after a 14-member confer ence committee from both houses recommended a compro mise schedule. The Increased pay plan is termed a “bonus”. It calls for. additional amounts ranging from $144 to $270 to the state’s employees and teachers who are in the employment of the state during the period from November 1, 1946, to the end of the school term or June 30,1947. One-half of the amount will toe paid with the February check and the remainder will be spread into equal payments with other monthly checks to June 30, 1947. A majority of the teachers will reecive total bonus payment of $198 by the end of the school. Many, however, will be paid re duced amounts ranging down ward to $144. At the end of last week, a total of 99 bills had be«n introduced in the house and 45 in the sen ate.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE NEGRO THROWS THREE CHILDREN IN 65-FOOT WELL Eugene Speas Scales, Negro about 33 years old, who lives on the farm of Paul P. Davis, went amok last Monday night and threw his three daughters In a 65-foot well at his home. The daughters were aged 8, 6 and 2 years. All were drowned. Sheriff Moxley and Depaty Ed Wlshon arrived at the home about 1 a.m. The bodies were removed from the well and Scales was arrested and placed in the Yadkhivllle JaU. After Scales threw his children in the well, he also tried to throw his wife In the well but failed. Scales then Jumped In the well himself but managed somehow to climb back out. There was four feet of water in the well. Officers expressed the opin ion that he was mentally de ranged. Poor Lighters Stars furnish about one-sixth of the light of the sky on moon less nights.

Puerto Rico has an average temperature of 73 degrees In winter and 79 In smnmec. Now Yadkin county has Us story Involvmg a British war- bride-to-be and her future hus band. This story come to light here last Friday evening when the bride-to-be, comely 17-year- old Eileen Edwards left the home of her future husband’s sister, Mrs. Spencer Bowman, on the pretext of taking an evening walk alone. Miss Edwards arrived In New York city last Wednesday from England and was met at the dock by her supposedly future husband, Arnold Bueslng, of Waterloo, Nebraska. They were to have been married In New York city, but a law requiring a wait of three days snarled their plans and caused them to de cide to come to Yadkinvlile, where they thought they would be married, and also visit a few days with Bueslng’s sister, and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Bowman. Late Friday afternoon while Bowman and Bueslng were out buying groceries, Miss Edwards spoke of wanting to take a walk. Mrs. Bowman tried to dissuade her from going alone, but the pretty little British lass wanted It that way, sayhig, “I have been to larger towns than this and found my way around,” and with that she walked out of the door and out of the life of the boy who loved her enough to try for 18 months to get her to America also paid $250 for her passage over immediately upon leaving the Bowman home Miss Edwards found her way to the Yadkinvlile taxicab station and inquired about charges to Bluefleld, W. Va. The cab drivers hedged upon her asking passage to the distant point by cab, and at that time a Yadkin Basket Factory truck pulled into a gas station before heading for Winston-Sa lem and other points. She ob tained a ride with the truck driver to Winston-Salem and there he bought her a ticket aboard a Greyhound bus for Bluefleld. From Bluefleld she hitch hiked to Superior, \V. Va., where she met another soldier whom she had known In England. His name is Theodore Speer and It Is supposed that they will be married. - The British girl left Yadkin- vllle without any clothing ex cept what she was wearing, and she was apparently without, or nearly without funds, as the truck driver purchased her tick et for her. After It was evident to Bue- sing and the Bowmans that something out of the ordinary was wrong, since she didn’t re turn home, Buesing and Bow man began cruising the town of Yadkinvlile in search of her. Af ter learning from the cab op erators that she had gone to ward Winston-Salem they traced her there and found she had boarded the Greyhound bus, Sunday Bueslng and Bowman made a trip to Bluefleld and there they found that a girl an swering her description had in quired the way to Superior, a town not far away. They went to thti Superior police and learned that a soldier recently returned from England was looking for a British girl over to marry him. The rest was easy. The party, with the police of ficer accompanying, found the home ,the other boy, and the girl who, It turned out, hat^ two lovers,, and was playing, hi part, a double personality. The "other” soldier is Theo dore Speer, and, according to Bueslng,. Is about his height and' build. (Bueslng is about S ft., six.)' Bueslng revealed after the or deal was over that his sweet heart had' mentiionea seveta:! times since her arrival in New York that she knew "another” girl who had come over to a place "somewhere near Bluefleld and was to be married.” She had a map of Virginia and stud ied that frequently^ her jilted lover stated. It was this fact that caused him. In the end, to think of the many questions she had asked about Bluefleld and other nearby towns, and to go there on Sunday In search of her. During the conversation be tween Bueslng, Miss Edwards, and Speer at the latter’s home. It was revealed that Speer knew of the girl’s engagement to Bue slng, and that he was sending her money to csme over on. Bue slng returned to the States about 18 months ago. Speer met Eileen and wooed and won her after Bueslng left England. It turned out that the "other” girl whom Miss Edwards spoke of was in reality herself. The young couple arrived at Yadkinvlile Friday about three o’clock. She left about 6 p.m. She was described by all who saw her »as being very pretty. She Is a light brunette, 5 feet five and weighs about lio pounds. Bueslng carried all the girl’s | belongings to her Sunday when he made the trip to West Vir ginia, and this supposedly In cluded a packet of love letters he had written her, which she brought over with her.

Qaither A T HOM E ON THE FARM with THE CITY covsm Disinterested as they are in world affairs, I feel sure that Tar Heel chickens would spurn all other candidates to name as their choice for «Man of the Year" slight, able Prof. Roy Dearstyne, head of the Poultry Department at State college. ’There is little likelihood that even the Rhode Island Reds would veto his nomination. Few men have so strenuously championed the cause of the cacklers during the past twelve months, nor has any man dis played the warmth, the human underatandlng, and th« down- to-earth approach of thla ar dent campaigner wh6 has learn ed the innermost secrets of his feathered friends. They have come to think of themselves as "Dearstyne’s chickens,” in the true Hiawatha tradition. Through the tSate college ex tension service, he helps farm ers mediate disputes by explain ing why egg production is falling oft in the hen house, and he has bult up a case for the "satisfied fowl” that makes a sulking piker out of the so-called "contented” cow. I have read, somewhere, about mules being strong of will and taking a narrow-minded at titude about buckling down to work, but this business of chick ens atrlklnff-^ell, it Just n em occurred to me that they were well enough organized, In the first place. Manufacturers who are stump ed by such knotty personnel problems as .portal-to-portal pay, increased wages, and short er hours, have never been up against an irate hen who refuses to lay her best when: She dines on old, stale madi; the floor of her house is too bare; her house is chilly, and she catches cold; there Is less than one nest for each five hens or her drinking water is too cold when she goes to work of a morning. And if there’s any thing that depresses her, saps her vitality, and cuts down the number of thote nicc, fresh egg- shaped objects she turns out, it’s the realisation that there Just isn’t enough elbow room In the placet This ground has been covered thoroughly by the hard-working professor, who leads you to be lieve that if the chicken’s well being is .not taken into consid eration, th e expression “As scarce as hen’s teeth,” may well become "as scarce as hen's eggs”. 1 thought I’d better take this up with the "Chickens’ Man of the Year,” so 1 got him on the phone. “About these crowded pulets,” I says, "Just how much room do they need for utter hap piness?” "Well, Cousin,” he tells me, "you want to allow 20 lineal feet of feeding space for each 100 hens. American breeds need an average of 4 iquar« feet of floor space, and Leghorns require S^. Comfortable quarters are mighty important durhig the winter.” He also tells me to provide dry litter at all times, pay close at tention to the ventilation, and to rap gently on the hen house dooro before entering so the birds won’t get all flustered. Tar Heel chickens are extreme ly fortunate in being represent ed by a man like the professor. His efforts will not go unnoticed. The American Indians used sunflower seed for bread and for thickening soup. Mrs. Margaret Hunter, Melvin, N. H., uses old maps to paper a wall in a colorful and cffcctlve manner. Yadkio Cat Takes A Long, Hot Ride A man fr.om Yadkin county last Friday parked his car at the Forsyth courthouse, cut ofl the motor, and stepped out, to be greteed by a frantic "meow ing”. The noise, obviously from a cat in much distress, attracted several bystanders, who asked the man if the yowling waa com ing from his ear. The sound persisted and his search took him to the hood of the car. He lifted it and there, crouched on the motor, was hla pet cat—an unknown and un comfortable passenger all the way from Yadkin county. The American oil tanker fleet now consists of 763 yesaelt.
