03-March-Mocksville EnterpriseVOLUME XXXI “All The County News For Everybody”MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1948 ‘All The County News For Everybody”No. 1 Great Educational Needs of Farm’ton and Others Cited In the first of a series of illus trations citing the deplorable school conditions in Davie coun ty, it was pointed out this week that Farmington school has the following discrepancies: Inadequate home economics fa cilities; lunch room In one end of gym and near an outside septic tank, presenting an unsanitary condition; insufficient lunch , room space and no room for pres ent expansion; no auditorium and no tcachers rest room; toilet fa cilities in good condition but too small and no room for expansion. With 314 pupils and 11 state allotted teachers, one agricultu ral vocational teacher and one home economics teacher, there are only 12 regular rooms for the 13 teachers, Curtis Price, county school superintendent, explained. These conditions put the school in a position of trying to go on and have classes as usual under cramped conditions which makes the entire situation impracticable for the children v/ho must learn. it is said. Such conditions have existed over a period of time. A few improvements have been made in the past two years, how ever. Past records show that some of the best scholars in the county have come from the Farmington section and because of their in terest in education, the scliool is entitled to the very best facili ties availuble, Mr. Price said. To provide the proper school facilities in Davie county, it is known that a bond issue of some $800,000 will be needed and it is time for the citizens to urge their officials to provide for these needs, the superintendent ex plained. It is understood the board of education presented the need of the county schools to the com missioners in December and the latter are giving the matters seri ous consideration. Another article next week will deal with conditions in another county school. NEWLY ELECTED ROTARY OFFICERS CIVIC HEAD TELLS ROTARIANS Of WINSTON'S INTEREST IN MOCKSVILLE J. H. THOMPSON Dr. LESTER MARTIN CURTIS PRICE LOCAL MAN ELECTED TO TOBACCO ASSOCIATION POST J. W. Smoot, of Route 4, is among the 75 North Carolina Farm Bureau members recently elected by counties to member ship in Tobacco Associates, Inc., in accordance with the constitu tion of the non-profit flue-cured tobacco export group.

At the convention, Farm Bu reau adopted a series of agricul tural resolutions, including the following thre ecovering tobacco: FLUE-CURED TOBACCO ‘‘We endorse and request the continuation of the Tobacco Quo ta program; the Commodity Credit corporation and the Man datory Loan provision on tobacco at 90 percent of parity; the grad ing and news service on all to bacco markets, this being essen tial to the marketing of tobacco. “We further request the con- tiuation of a well-rounded state wide field program of research in all the phases of growing, curing and marketing of tobacco in the interest of growers, for the pur pose of improving the yield and quality and reducing the costs of production and marketing, there by helping growers to realize more net profit on their tobacco. We urgently request that suffi cient funds be provided for the accurate measurement of every acre of tobacco planted in 1948. “Tho members pi the North Carolina Farm Bureau recognize the whole-hearted support of all agencies and organizations in the successful operation of the Flue- Cured Tobacco Cooperative Sta bilization corporation and Tobac co Associates, Inc., and respect fully request the continued sup port in the years ahead. “Since there is developing an actite shortage of flue sheet ma terial for the manufacture ot to bacco flues, we strongly recom mend that this material be made available in due time for the man ufacture of flues for 1948. BURLEY TOBACCO “We support the present burley tobacco law with its minimum acreage provision as long as it is satisfactory to the majority of the burley tobacco growers. “We respectfully request that study be made in the allotments of burley tobacco in the North Carolina area with reference to cropland and other regulations.

Krusz, head of the Winston-Salem Chamber of Com merce, told local Rotarians Tues day that his city was vitally in terested in Mocksville and its growth and he proved it by pay ing the club a “neighborly visit.” Mr. Krusz was introduced by Curtis Price, program chairman, who described the former as pres ident of the Organization of Chambers of Commerce of North Carolina, a major in the recent war, and a resident and civic leader of Winston for the past seven years. "This section is growing in leaps and bounds,” said Mr, Krusz, "The Western Electric company in Winston employs about 4,000 people, the VA head quarters for North Carolina is there, and now Hanes Knitting company is establishing a sub sidiary plant in Davie county, I want tho people of Mocksville to know that wo in Winston are in terested in their development and will do everything we can to help them. We haven’t been as friendly and neighborly in the past as we would have liked to have been, but we are making every effort to bo that way be ginning now,” Citing tho problems that every community, large and small, has to solve before it can live peace- a'bly, Mr, Krusz pointed out that “there is a growing conscious ness on everyone’s part, business man and housewife alike, that our troubles and grievances must be solved on a local level without running to Raleigh or Washing ton every time something goes wrong with labor, management, transportation .schools, or some thing of that sort.” Recalling the words of another Rotary speaker, Charles Erwin, a few weeks ago, Mr. Krusz main tained that “the responsibility lies with businessmen to see that our schools are run in the right way—with the right superintend ents, principals and teachers—so that they can properly instruct the most valuable property we have—our children. We must see that ' our children arc taught Americanism at its glorious best —with all the tradition and cher ished institutions so typical of ouv way of life. ^ “Vour job and mine is to see ultimately that we get the right kind of men to govern our town, county, state and nation, and then the problems of peace would not be so difficult because the rulers of our land on the higher eche lons of government would under stand the feeling of 'the folks back home’—the same kind of people from whom they themselves sprang.” Guests at the luncheon meet ing were L. R. Sims of Greens boro, L, C, Miller of Mocksville, Western Auto representatives, Bill Hardin, Salisbury Rotarían, and A, C, Cheshire of Courtney. PROOFS OF CHILDREN’S PICTURES TO BE SHOWN Information has been received from the photographic studios who recently took pictures of many local children for publica tion in the Enterprise that the proofs are ready and will be on hand for selection by the par ents, at the Rotary Hut, Wednes day, March 10, from 1 p,m, to 8 p,m. While the studio assures us ev ery effort has been made to no tify all parents by mail, the En terprise is especially anxious for everyone concerned to be made aware of the day, so all will be on hand to express their prefer ence of the pose to be used for publication or, os the case may be, the one they wish made into personal pictures. This, parents may do entirely of their own choosing, for it is emphasized again that there is no obligation in conncction with this newspa per feature.

Beauford Jester (centcr) of Texas and Gov. Frank Carlson of Kansas again voice their support of a bill to override a Supreme Court decision on states' rights. The governors urged that individual states be given title to the oil-rich tide- lands and submerged coastlincs, instead of keeping them under Federal government control, as tho court ruled. Horses’ Feet Need Special Attention Disease and injury that may prove to be crippling can be pre vented by giving special atten tion to horse's feet during the sta bled period, according to Dr. C. D. Grinnells, professor of veteri nary science at State college. Dr. Grinnells stated that horses’ teeth also need a check-up at least once a year, and winter is an ideal time to have the vetetl- narian make the dental examina tion. Brittle hoofs, spongy hoofs, thrush, and foot canker have been cited by the American Founda tion for Animal Health as four of the diseases commonly caused by bad stable conditions. These diseases are usually brought about by placing horses in ex cessively dry stables, stables with hard floors, or by long stabling in damp and unsanitary quarters. Clean, dry floors are recom mended as a wise precaution. Dr. Grinnells said. Also, the feet of stabled animals should be trim med at least once a month. Any irregularity or trouble with the feet should be examined by a veterinarian. As for the animal’s teeth, the horse's mouth is so constructed that its teeth wear off unevenly. If this irregularity is not correct ed, tho animal cannot chew prop erly. Digestive upsets may fol low, and the horse's cheeks may be painfully injured. Iloom for More Ton per cent of tho city homes of tho United States lack bath tubs. This necessity is also miss ing in 30 per cent of village homes and 90 per cent of farm homes. NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATION By HOWARD J. WILLL^MS T. O. Kellar and A. L. Bowles, near Swicogood's store, had soil samples taken of their fields to determine the amount and analy sis fertilizer needed for best pro duction at most economical cost. Ed Dwiggins, near Davie cross roads, is proud of an area he seeded to orchard grass and la- dino clover last fall. Mr. Dwig gins is already makina prepara tions tor seeding his alialfa this fall. He plans to bog under red clover and lespedeza on his al- fiilfa field, which will not only provide a good cover corp, but (will help to keep the surface soil from baking as well. Joe Alexander, near Ephesus, ! was assisted by the Soil Conser vation Service in laying out ter- ■ races on his farm. He has built ! several good terraces with. his farm equipment. C. E. Leagans of Cana placed an order for 1,000 short-leaf pine seedlings to be planted on a rath er steep hillside that is now grow ing up in loss desirable species of hardwoods .Mr. Leagans had diversion ditches run on his farm to hold hillside water off his crop land.

C., as Second Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 CHILDREN AND THE SCHOOLS Several things we’ve heard about and written about this week bring to.mind a subject that has been pounded home again and again here of late—that of the welfare of our children. Several speakers at the Rotary club and other gatherings have said it time after time; our childien are all we have to depend on to preserve our American way of life. And the only way our children can possibly do the country any good is to have them properly educated—the best kind of education, in the right direction, with the best teachers and supervisors. The story this week deploring the conditions in one of the county schools came as no news to those familiar with the situation. It is true that during the past two or three years some improvements liave been made in all of the county schools, but they have a long way to go to the point where learning is something that will be gained en thusiastically, thirstily, and eargerly by all those whom it is our job to teach. In addition, Harry Krusz from Winston echoed the words of another man who is concerned with the future of our country, and therefore of our children, Charles Erwin of Salisbury. They both think the way to peaceful world conditions- and all that goes with those conditions is through enlightenment, education, instruction, indoctri nation' of our children. Don’t the best school conditions we can possibly afford go hand in hand with proper edu cation and teaching of the way we Americans do things? Since the only way we can have the things we need in the schools is through raising money under a bond Issue, it seems that the simplest thing to do is to go ahead and raise the money for it. Eevery year that a graduating class leaves Mocksville high school or Farmington school or any other school in or out of the county means that that group of boys and girls is emerging into the world either ill-prepared or properly prepared to do the jobs that we as children did ourselves. It means that they must know how to do such seem- ingly-simple things as vote properly, elect the right men to lead us through dark days and sunny days, fight for the things they know we must have to have the best county or country in the world.

C., FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 1948 “AU The County News For Everybody”No. 2 CONSERVATIONIST REAFFIRMS SAVING OF FARM LAND THROUGHOUT COUNTY stating that "We must recover reverence for the earth ond treat it no longer as a reservoir of po tential wealth to be exploited but a storehouse of divine bounty upon which we utterly depend," John T. McAlister, zone conser vationist of the Soil Conservation service in this area, told local Ho- tarians last Tuesday that the great challenge of this civilization is the saving of the soil. Mr. McAlister was quoting a particular statement that caught his eye, which was originally quoted in Time magazine by the Archbishop of Canterbury. The conservationist was pre sented by W. J. Wilfong, program (hairman. Mr. McAlister came to the point quickly when he pointed out that where food is scarce, as a result of carelessness of the land, governments crumble, and cited most European nations as pitiful testimony of this fact. "Food means everything in our national and international rela tionships," he said. "If the food cannot be produced through poor land management, nations can not live. "Conservation of the soil is the foundation of our nationol secur ity, since we hove, through poor management and other causes, let the land go to such an extent that at present one-fourth of all the farms in the southeastern states ore on a conservation plan.” The Rotarían of Spartanburg, S. C., pointed out that land in Davie county is being managed on a better-than-average scale at the present time. "Conservation forming pays — ask any one who has done it — and it pays portly because it is done in harmony with nature .No new land is available now because there aro no new frontiers, so wo must conserve, preserve, whot we now have," he sold. "The greatest contribution that con be made by any man or any group of men, such as you Rota rians, will be through helping farmers work their land through conservation of the soil. Impress upon them the fact that we all know so .well—no land means no food. And it’s to their benefit as well os for the rest of the eoting world," he concluded. President Dave Rankin presid ed and the club welcomed back D, J, Mando and Jeff Caudell, rc- cent Florida visitors. Guests were Mr ,McAlister, H, B, Marsh of the Purina Co,v J, P, Bowler, assistant county agent. Rev, George Clem- mer of Thomasville, Hiirmori Mc- Mohan, E, J, Company of Adams, N. Y., J.

AGITATION STARTED FOR NEW RAILROAD STATION IN MOCKSVILLE An appeol hos been made to tlie Rotary club to hove its pub lic relations commltteo request the Southern Railway system to build a new railroad station in Mocksville, since tho present one is in a bad condition of disrepair.

SHELL Would you like to help your government save $100,000,000 in taxes and 50,000 lives during the next 12 months? If so, the first step is to see your doctor or come to your health department and make sure that you arc safe from a flisease thot costs North Coro- lino more than a thousnnd lives nnnuolly besides much sufrcring, loss of time, nnd a tremondous amount of your money to main tain spccial sanitarium.s. Tuberculosis is a contagious disense. No one is safe from in fection. Between tho ages of 15 nnd 44, it lends oil other diseases as tho cause of death. It has been a leading killer for centuries. And the shame of it is that with your help and co-oportaion it could be wiped out entirely. In tho early stages tuberculosis frequently has no symptoms ot all. If you wait until you feel sick, until you have a cough that won’t quit; until you feel tired all tho time; until you have pain in tho chest; or until you spit up blood, you may hove tuberculosis in advanced stages when it is border and slower to treat and moy require your life os tho price of negligence. Tuberculosis in tho early stages can be cured; and the sooner it is found, the less time and money it takes to euro it. The tubercu losis test is simple, and will cost you nothing but your time.

By J. D. PARKER, Jr. Principal Back in the into 1930’s tho pa trons of Shady Grove High school made plans for a gymno- sium and recreation room with rest room facilities. They plan ned .worked, and raised a portion of the money. The board ot edu cation promised to build—and the war came along and, of course, everyone realized it could not bo built then. We now use our auditorium for a gymnasium. Tho sents must bo taken up and stackcd. Wo can not have any program until ba.s- ketball season is over. Our au ditorium floor is being damaged bccause of this wear from taking up and putting down seats every year. And since our class rooms open into the nuditorium-gymna- sium, we nre disturbing someone every time it is used. During the past years our school plant has grown until we are in great need of o lunch room. Wo serve about 250 school lunches dally in a very meager space—a former class room. This situation creates a disturbance during lunch hour ond also during the practice periods in the audito rium. At Shady Grove High school the toilet focilities ore inadequate according to standords set up by the stote. We are o rural section with fu ture farmers and housekeepers in our school. And we are not able to offer home economics and ag riculture. We have many stu dents—very deserving—who need training in the manual arts. This is a most urgent need and should be met in tho coming year. These are our most pressing needs: a gymnasium, a lunch room, manual arts and toilet fa cilities. MARCH 15 IS CLOSING DATE FOR FARMERS TO FILE 1948 FARM PLANS Choir Sings At High School The Limestone College choir presented o program at Mocks ville High school on Tuesday, March 9.

WILLIAMS Eleven Davie county farmeri are planting treei on their farma thii spring. More intereit ia be ing riiown in reforeatatlon each year and the 18,000 leedlingi that are being planted this spring In dicates that larger amounts will be planted in the years to come. There are many idle - acres throughout the county that are best suited to trees and should be piantcd to check erosion and pro vide a future source of lumber. One of the first areas to be planted to trees in the county is on the farm of Mrs. Woodson. These loblolly pine are eleven years old and some have attained a height of 30 feet or more with an average diameter ot from 5 to 7 inches. The ground is covered to a depth of several inches with needles from the trees that help to hold the moisture and prevent washing. W. A. and Hubert Bailey, near Advance, have taken soil samples on their iarm to determine the amount of lime and fertilizer needed for their crops. They put out a carload of lime last fall and plan to order anotlier car this year. Kelly Call, T. O. Keller, and Wade Beck had terraces run on their farms last week. They plan to use their farm tractors to build these terraces. Several farmers over tho coun ty were observed top-dressing their alfalfa last week. Tho amount of fertilizer being applied ranged from 400 to 1,000 pounds per acre, Considering the cost of seeding alfalfa, and the gains obtained from bettor stands and higher yields that are made poss ible by fertilizing, a person can not afford to omit top-dressing the crop annually. stead said, "which is of great help to me/Cvery day now in seeking to servo th best Interest ot ail.” А е*(Л . . . 2 > 4 е а т / а м 1 М а М п е 4 Л Uai fitíU аМ4тЛ ai \ Farmers Hardware & Supply Co. ---------------------------------------------------------------—9 й N e w ---------------------------------------------------------- @) LASTING INNERSPRINGS SURROUNDED BY THE BEST OUALITY FILLING 1 WITH SOFT AND DURABLE COVERING EXTRA CARE HAS BEEN TAKEN IN BUILDING EACH MATTRESS TO INSURE YOUR COMFORTI SEE THEM TODAY!! *JUe. y j/W 2i^eam laud M cU i^e ii AT Farmers Hardware & Supply Co.

C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 CONSERVE THE SOIL—NOW It seems that everything said these days by anyone who Itnows anything at all has to do with saving some thing—used fats, money, clothes, automobile wear and tear, paper and a great collection of other things that we use from day to day. But the thing that hits us most is what Conservationist John McAlister said this week—save the soil! Yes, with out the soil, there is nothing. Not one blessed thing that we use in this life comes from anywhere but the ground. You can’t name one item that isn’t grown in the ground before it is eaten, worn, sat upon, ridden upon, burned for fuel, lived in, driven in, or used in some way, however small. How many times my daddy has tanned my careless hide for tearing my trousers, or breaking a tool! Why, that was just in keeping with the very sensible practice of conservation of everything that we use. It has occurred to most of us at one time or another that sooner or later there won’t be any more soil, gas, wood coal and a few ol:her things, because it is being used up too fast to replace it. The last war used up plenty of all those things. And one thing the war used up was food. One bright morning, unless something more is done in order to save the ground we now have to grow our beans and corn and cotton on is taken care of very drastically, we are all going to awaken and discover there is no longer any oat meal, eggs, bacon, or toast for breakfast, because the land used to grow that stuff on has all washed away with rain and wind, and what little is left is so poor It won’t put out, Now won’t that be a fine thing? Well, there’s no use getting all excited and worked up over it. All we have to do is save a little more than we have in the past. Take things a little easier and spend a little more time taking care of the soil—time that will pay off in longer life and better life for us and our grand and great-great-grandchil- dren. Well, it may cost a little money—but nine times out of ten the FHA or another government agency will lend the money to be used in saving the land, because they know It’s a good risk. It’s just like the banker who was ap proached by the farmer for a loan to buy another farm because his present farm was all torn up, eroded and gen- ealiy in poor condition. The banker said he wouldn’t lend the money to buy another farm, but he would lend enough to use soil conservation practices on his old one—because he knew it was a good risk. His money would be safer with the old farm. And frequently soil conservation costs very little—it may just consist of a slightly different type of farming to be used, such as running crop rows north and south instead of east and west, or on a curve instead of straight down a gully. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Well, it is! TWENTY YEARS AGO In Thr Enterprise THURSDAY, MARCH 8, 1928 Ed Wood of Pino, shot the top of his head off and died instantly, He was said to be in poor health.

In More Ways Than One,,’ The magazine is being r.:,ailed free of charge to all citizens of the state who re quest it. Dr. R. L. Lovvorn, professor of agronomy, and J. R. Piland, assist ant professor of soil chemistry at the Station are authors of the article. In their introduction they point out that the soils of North Carolina are relatively low in or ganic matter. This plus the fact that “row cropping has hasten ed the burning of organic matter originally in the soil” means that farmers must find some way of increasing organic matter con tent. The authors list these as some of the advantages of organic mat ter: (1) improves working con ditions of the soil; (2) increases the water-holding capacity; (3) serves as fuel for bacterial fires which produce plant nutrients; and (4) provides nitrates directly. They go on to point out that livestock and sod crops build up organic matter content, as well as furnish a new enterprise to re place areas new being turned out of row crops. In recent test, workers at the Experiment Station have tried out various combinations of grass es and legumes to sec which ones increase organic matter in the soil most rapidly. Preliminary tests showed that a fertilized and limed Dallis grass-lespedeza sod produced 7,000 pounds or organic matter per acre more than did untreated sod. The invetigafors found that car pet grass was the least effective of all grasses in building organic matter content. Bermuda was most effective., Lespedeza-grass sods with the exception of carpet grass-lespedeza contained more organic matter than grass alone. The authors conclude that the step which produces a good grazing sod, also furnishes the most or ganic matter. North Carolina’s rural housing problem, how to control blue mold, new varieties of muscadine grapes, and the value of breeding good laying hens are among the other subjects discussed in the latest “Research and Farming.” For a free copy write to the Ag ricultural Editor, State College Station, Raleigh, and ask for Re search and Farming.

Experiment Station Releases Findings “Research and Farming,” quar terly publication of the North Carolina agricultural experiment station, has just been released and is available to all citizens who request it. The cover picture, which por trays a beautiful country home amid its setting of snow-laden evergreens, points up the lead- off article dealing with the rural housing problem in North Caro lina. Dr. Selz C. Mayo, associate professor of rural sociology at State college and author of the article, writes that low income is the chief cause of poor housing, “ In 1039 the net income per farm worker in North Carolina was $513, of which only $357 was cash.” Dr. Mayo .goes on to point out that farm families often actively resist efforts to improve their housing. He cites the farmer who claims that "A new house won’t build a new barn, but a new barn may make a new house possible.” the farm family too often con siders their house a non-produc- tive element in the whole farm Mayo scorns the idea that the Mayo also scors the idea that the log cabin is a hardening element which betters the farm family rather than makes it worse off. Some of the suggestions which Dr, Mayo makes for improving farm housing arc: (1) laws that will set minimum standards for rented houses similar to laws al ready in effect for city apart ments; (2) long term and written contracts that will encourage tenants and sharecroppers to im prove their dwellings; (3) con tinued Federal aid for rural hous ing; and (4) community groups set up to study and Improve ru ral housing. Dr. Mayo’s article is one of sev en which appear in the publica tion. Others cover such subjects as poultry breeding, picking cot ton with machines, new varieties of muscadine grapes, and steps for controlling Blue Mold in to bacco. Copies of the January issue of research and farming may be had by writing to the agricultural ed itor, North Carolina State col lege, Raleigh. Those interested in receiving the publication regu larly should ask that their names be placed on tho mailing list.

Thompson wishes to remind the citizens of Mocks ville that parking is permissible without charge anywhere in town on Wednesday afternoons. DAVIE YOUTH DIES IN PLANE CRASH HERE THURSDAY Dewey Smith, 21, who died of severe burns last Friday when the plane he was flying crashed and burned near Mocksville Thurs day, was buried Sunday at Cen ter Methodist church. Rites were conducted by Rev. J. B. Fitzger ald, and military graveside serv ices were held by the Frank E. Perryman Post 134 of Winston- Salem Veterans of Foreign Wars. Mr. Smith is survived by his parents, W. D. and Naomi Cran- fill Smith; Mrs. Clyde Vickers of Route 4; Misses Pauline and Bon nie Sue Smith of the home on Route 4; two brothers, Robert Lee Smith of Winston-Salem and Kimbrough Smith of Lexington. Mr. Smith was flying over the McAllister farm near Center and was apparently stunting, when the plane went out of control and crashed, first skidding olong the ground. Investigators said the gas line probably broke, engulf ing the craft in flames. The youth tried to free himself, but his clothing caught fire. William An derson, who was nearby, reached the plane first, and an ambulance was summoned. Mr. Smith was taken to a Statesville hospital. The airplane, a small two-place Ercoupe, was owned by the Salis bury Aircraft Service, and was a total loss. It was valued at about $3,500. YOUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT By CARL E. SHELL PRE-SCHOOL CLINICS Clinics are now being sched uled for examination and neces sary immunization of all children who will enter school next fall. Dr. Harry T. McPherson of the Duke University School of Mcdi- cine has been secured to hold these clinics in Davie county. Children will have a thorough physical examination for signs of malnutrition, defective eyes, ears, teeth, tonsils and other conditions that would hinder thïir progress in school. Parents are urgently requested to put forth every effort to come with their children to these clin ics in order that they may discuss the examination with the doctor and understand fully what cor rections should be made during the summer. Clinics are as follows: Farmington: Wednesday, March 24, 9 a.m. Wm. R. Davie: Wedne.sdoy, March 24, 11 a.m. St'i John’s; Wednesday, March 24, 2 p.m. Advance: Friday, March 28, 9 a.m. Smith Grove: Friday, March 26, 1 p.m. Mocksville, at Health Depart ment, Tuesday, March 30, 9 a.m. Davie County Training School, Cedar Creek and Poplar Springs, at Health Department, Tuesday, March 30, 1 p.m. Cooleemee, at Health Depart ment, Thursday, April 8, 9 a.m. North Cooleemee and Boxwood, at Cooleemed Health Department, Thursday, April 8, 1 p.m. March Is The Month of Fires Beware the winds of March if you want to keep your farm property from going up in flames. County Agent F. E . Peebles warned today. Mr. Peebles cited figures re leased by Fire Protection insti tute to Indicate that March is the worst month of the year in terms of fire losses. And losses this year may reach new highs. “More than $72,435,000 worth of property in this country was destroyed by fire during March of last year. Bosed on Depart ment of Agriculture calculations, approximately 14 millions of that one-month loss occurred on America’s farms.” "In spite of fire prevention ef forts, our fire loss totals continue to mount. During the month of January, for example, fire losses were up ten per cent over totals for the same period a year ago. This is a serious threat to the farmer, to the consumer who de pends on his products and to the entire national economy.” •‘‘Fire losses can be reduced through a simple program of pre vention and protection,” Mr. Pee bles declared. "There’s nothing complicated about rooting out fire hazards and using common sense to prevent fires,” he contends. “And there’s nothing complicated about get ting the best approved fire extin guishers and spotting them at strategic points on farm property against the time when an unpre- ventable fire breaks out.. A fire multiplies fifty times in eight minutes. Today's farmer can’t af ford not to have sound fire-fight ing equipment." P.-T.A. ASKS FOR BOND ISSUE; HEALTH PROBLEMS DISCUSSED Stressing the fact toe little is being done in most schools to day to care for the health of the individual child, a panel discuss ion featured the regular monthly meeting of the Mocksville P.-T.A. last Tuesday night. Physicians, dentists, and health authorities discussed the myriad problems that must be met on a local level in order to give healtli its No. 1 place in the schools. Several agredd however, that more is being done by teach ers and the Health Department than is realized generally. Dr. P. H. Mason proposed that different dentists in town go to schools for examination on differ ent days. “As is stands now, if any den tist finds anything wrong with a child’s teeth, the parents have to be notified, and it comes as a surprise in many cases,” he said. "If the parent would only look in the mouth of his child, no one would have to notify him of den tal deficiencies.” Dr. E. A. Eckerd, local dentist, suggested that parents have a great responsibility in caring for their own child’s teeth. One thing a parent can do, he said, is to prepare the child for the trip to the dentist—“get him in the right frame of mind.” In that way the child ii a better patient and more can be done for him. In addition to that, children should be accus tomed to come to school neat and clean. Carl E. Shell, county santitar- ian, said that proper health habits should be started early in a child’s life and can so easily be acquir ed that way. The health depart- mefn constantly takes measures to keep people in good health, us ing an “ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” theme. Mrs. Blanche Hanes Clement approached the problem from the standpoint of the parent, stress ing need for a properly heated gymnasium, correct toilet facilit ies and more time for the lunch period. Dr. W. M. Long, speaking from a medical standpoint, pointed out again the value of preventive medicine. He said maternal care before childbirth would give the child a better start toward life. Children should be vaccinated be fore 6 months of age, he said, and a pre-school examination would prevent many cases of rheumatic heart. "Small illnesses can easily be taken care of when we are children,” he said, ”but they grow much larger as time goes on.” F. E. Peebles, county agent, discussed the question from the teacher’s standpoint. He proposed more ""tax payments to give the children the help they need. After the discussion, the meet ing reached a climax as Dr. L. P. Martin read a resolution by the Mocksville P.-T.A. asking for support of a bond issue to raise more money for schools in Davie county; "WHEREAS, our children are our most precious heritage, for whom we wish every advantage possible, particularly with re spect to their training and edu cation, and, "WHEREAS, the schools of Da vie County are definitely in need of expansion and improvement to the' end that our children may have more adequate opportunities therein, "THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Mocksville Parent-Teach- er Association: "THAT, We commend the Da-r vie County Board of Education upon its zeal and forethought in that it has planned a program of expansion and improvement for the schools of the County; “That, We urge the Davie County Board of Education and the County Board of Commission ers to push the plans to the point of letting the people voice their approval of their planning, being aware, as wo are, that those plans will necessitate a bond election, to the successful carrying of which we hereby pledge our sup port. “Respectfully submitted, MRS. HARRY OSBORNE President MRS. W. F. ROBINSON Vice-President MRS. KNOX JOHNSTONE” Secretary ROTARIANS HEAR OF FFA WORK FROM LEO WILLIAMS, VOCATIONAL TEACHER Members of the local Rotary club heard Tuesday a group of FFA boys from the high school discuss and explain the various functions of the Future Farmers of America in this county and chapter. The boys. Bill Collette, Bobby Dayvault, Charlie Lakey and Clegg Howard, were introduced by Leo Williams, instructor in vo cational agriculture at the high school. Grady Dunne, president of the local unit, was not present at the meeting. His explanation was taken over by Bill Collette, who talked on the leadership and co operation aspects of FFA work. Calling the two topics the most important in FFA activities, Col lette pointed out that under the leadership of Mr. Williams and with the cooperation of the boys in the chapter and veterans who are being instructed in the pro gram, repairs and remodeling have been made on the shop building in back of the high school. Bobby Dayvault spoke on the importance of recreation to FFA chapters and explained they en joyed dances, picnics, baseball, basketball, and banquets. Clyde Lakey, treasurer of the organi zation, talked about community service and described in detail a pruning demonstration recently. Clegg Howard, secretary, told ot supervised farming and pointed out that all FFA boys have some kind of a project upon which they work throughout the entire year. “Sole ownership of the project, such as a calf or a litter of pigs, is stressed,” he said, “because the boys will take more pride in some thing that is wholly theirs, rather than if a parent or friend owned part of it.” ' Mr. Williams was introduced by Curtis Price, program chair man, and Dave Rankin presided. IMEETING POSTPONED Due to inability to get the serv ice of a suitable machine to show the film on tobacco, the meeting previously planned for 6 o’clock, Friday n^ght, March 10, has been postponed to a later date.

T. SMITH, Owner TOMMY LEE PHILLIPS SENTENCED TO 50 TO 60 YEARS IN PRISON Tommy Lee Phillips was sen tenced late Wednesday afternoon to 50 to 60 years in prison lor the second degree murder oi his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Ev- rette Phillips, of Winston-Salem, natives of Yadkin, last New Year’s Eve. The verdict was announced by a jury obviously shaken by the. ordeal of determining whether,a 16-year-old boy should die, go to prison or be liberated. “There were tears shed and prayers spoken in that room,” one juror snid. Some Jurors Favor Mercy Although the verdict was un accompanied by ■ a recoinmenda- tion oi mcrcy, some jurors ex pressed themselves informally in favor of mercy after the verdict had been nnnounced. Tommy Leo stood as the verdict was rend and watched the jury with heavy, tired eyes. He sat, melnncholy and breathing rather heavily, as ho was sentenced fu'st to 20 to 30 years for the murder of his fatlier, and then to 25 to 30 years for tho murder of his moth- .

The parents did not know he thought her pregnant. An inves tigator in the case asked him once why he did not discuss his trou ble with his mother and his fa ther. He replied, “It would have killed them if they had found out about it.” It was accidental that when the jury- returned its verdict, the crowds had departed and Tommy Lee was for the first time during the trial without the prsence of relatives. Judge Clement had ad journed court at about 5:20 p.m. and the crowd—including Bessie Ruth and his relatives—had left when the jury returned and asked for additional instructions. Л few liours after lie was scn- tencod to serve 50 to GO years for the New Year’s eve murders. Tommy Lee snid, “I’d give my life 600 times, if it would bring them back.” “The sad part about my sen tence,” he said, “is that by my serving it, it won’t bring Motlier and Dad back.” And since nothing can bring back the parents he killed, ho pleaded for "one more chance. All I want is one more chance. And if I.don’t got it, I want to be gassed.” “I admit I did a terrible thing,* he continued. “I don’t know how I could ever "have done such a thing. I’ve laid awake nights wondering how and why I could ever do such a thing as that,” :OLORED NEWS By AMANDA EVANS Records Prove Helpful For Farm Planning Because ot records kept on their past year’s operations, thou sands of North Carolina farmers will have a better balanced sys tem of farming for the new year, says C, Brice Ratchford, in charge of Farm Management for the State College Extension Service. Records kept by farmers in this state last year probably out number those kept during any other year, Mr. Ratchford said, and this means that the strong and weak points of the farm business can be detected and ad justments made in the 1948 oper ations. There are still a large number of farmers in the state who do not keep records, he declared, and, because ot this, many of them have no idea wiiy their expenses are so great some times and their receipts so small. Here are some of the reasons why rccords should be kept on every farm. Properly kept records give the farmer an idea as to which en terprises were the most profitable, wliich practices were most profit able, which expense items were tlie highest, and whctlier the f.irm, as a whole, paid off, tlie specialist declared, On most farms in North Car olina, tliere is some practice or enterprise wliich costs the iarni- or money. For example, the rec ord may indicate that the farm, as a whole, made a profit; yet, some enterprise or practice did not pay expenses. Tlie farmer would have made more money had he not had the extra enter prise or used tlie additional prac tice. Well kept rccords will likely reveal expense items such as re pairs to machinery and equip ment that are very high, and could be lowered if a real effort was made to do so. On other farms. feed costs may be too. high, hmI on others, it may be the labor cost which, prevents the fanner from making a profit.

With meat hard to get, both in supply and cost, this thrifty trio comes to the rescue to stretch a small amount of meat to make hearty main dish. They not only make a small amount of meat go a long, flavorful way, but do equally well with fish, poultry, eggs and cheese. y m W • \ w м ^ л v J v л w ,\ W J w w w г м w м w .W ш w л w w л w ii MOTHER AND DAUGHTER FASHIONS HANDBAGS To Complete Your Easter Ensemble-^ COLORS RED ÎGREEN ? , N A V Y ' BLACK BROW N , GOLD I TURP / GREX J p Ï Î 'jfATERlXLS CALF FAILLE CORDS REPTILE SUEDE PATENT PLASTIC SADDLE LEATHER NEW STYLE FEATURES Skirt Bags - Double Pouch - Paniar Han dles ' Shoulder Straps - and Maoy Other Styles To Choose From. $ 2 -^5 i 1 4 -9 5 (Plut Fed, Tax) The Perfect Easter Gift Jewelry Boxes Velvet Lined— With Lock Navy - Light Blue - Green - Red Wine - Natural «2*95 and $3 .9 5 Mother & Daughter Fashions Wiraton-Salem, N.

C „ as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA Everyone has his own opinion of which group or indi vidual is doing the best job in his own line. Certain groups, such as the Red Cross or the Boy or Girl Scouts or the VFW, get a lot of credit for doing a certain job well. And that’s all fine. But the group that comes to our mind as doing a good piece of work at the present time embraces all the boys in the FPA at the local high school—and at other schools, too, although we are not too well acquainted with the work they’re doing. Leo Williams has his group of boys lined up to where they can really make something out of nothing. For in stance, they took an old worn-out shop building, and made a few improvements, got some new equipment through va rious agencies, and, furnishing all the labor themselves, made it into one of the finest in this section. They’ve got modern equipment, band saws, planers, rotary saws, and all sorts of contraptions that turn out some very fine work. Some of the boys are making cedar chests, small ones for a vanity table perhaps, that we’d be proud to own. You couldn’t tell the fifference from a commercial product if you tried. Of course, it takes a lot of organizational ability to get the boys lined up so that they really can take a pride in what they’re doing because at best high school people have a lot on their minds besides constructive work. The man to whom that lot falls is usually the high school Instructor, in this case Leo Williams. As he spoke to the Rotarians this week and as his boys got up and told what they’re doing down at the high school in addition to the shop work, you could see that somebody had been at work getting the thing organized. The unhappy part about it is that a school teacher’s lot at best is no bed of roses, and Leo has had all this to do in addition to his regular duties, as the Army used to phrase it. He deserves a hand now and then for what he’s doing and for what he has planned for the future in our community. FOUR CORNERS Those visiting Mrs. E. J.

It was planned to have a town board meeting soon to consider the expense involved in the proj ect. It was said lumber for the building could be furnished from the trees in the park. The board would have to act on the plan, however, before any action could be taken. The project would be financed by selling advertising space on the fence to local merchants and to national agencies, an official of the junior American Legion baseball committee said. NEW BOOKS AT LIBRARY New books received at the li brary during the past week: Ader, Leaf Against the Sky, Bain, S-O-S Helicopter; Burt, Still Water! Clark, All the Best in S. A.; Corbett, Immortal Helen; Furnas, The Far Country; Fisher, American Pprtraits; Idell, The Great Blizzard; Look, Look at America: the South; Lockwood, A Fistful of Stars; Longfellow, Poems; Managhan, The Overland Trail; Thirkell, Private Enter prise; American Wild Life. New members are being added to the library frequently, thanks to Heritage Furniture and to oth er industries coming into our town. One mother'and her two children came up and joined, the first week of residence, “As soon as I knew we were to live in Mocksville, I asked, ‘Is there a library?’ My children must have that privilege.” Forty-eight sub scribers have been enrolled since 1948 began. It is inspiring to see every chair filled with young ones, studying, reading, doing reference ' work. With enlarged facilities this serv ice could be greatly expanded. One of the imperative needs is a "reading room”. In the past month six visitors in town came down to read and browse while waiting. One of those afternoons, the visitor had to go in the work room to sit. A librarian was of this group. She was surprised and delighted that there were as many volumes for “such a small coun ty”. The crowded conditions made an impression on her, espe cially in view of the fact that we proclaim, "we have just begun.” In spite of bad weather, schools closed, the circulation for Febru ary from the main library was 1,964. More teachers are taking out collections than ever before, and one remarked, "it is a god send on bad days”. A county official brought a vis itor to the library one day re cently and said, “just wanted her to comc and see what we have, I am so proud of it.” More power to himl Your library board is trying to make your library some thing for every citizen to be proud of, help them with your interest, advertising and visiting.

An Array of Colors to Select From VOLUME XXXI M l The County News For Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 1948 "A» The County News For Everybody”No. 3 WELFARE HEAD VISITS DAVIE; SAYS PERSONNEL NEEDED THRUOUT STATE Outlining' the functions and duties of the State Department of Public Welfare, Dr. Ellen Win ston, commissioner of the office, said Monday that need of prop erly trained personnel was the organization’s No. 1 want at the present. Dr. Winston addressed Davie Welfare workers. Miss Amy Tal bert and Miss Ossie Allison, mem bers of the county board of wel fare, and other interested persons concerned with public welfare in this area. J. G. Crawford of Cooleemee, chairman of the county board of welfare .introduced Dr. Winston, who has been welfare commis sioner since June, 1944. The wel fare worker, who received her Ph.D. degree from the UUnivers- sity of Chicago, asserted that “public welfare in this state is outside the area of politics, and political emphasis of any sort has not detracted from the welfare program.” She said that Davie county had r,eceived $73,000 in aid to aged and infirm within the county, $60,000 of it in federal and state funds. It was also pointed out that the county is below the av erage in the state in aid to de pendent children, with 14 per 1,000 being helped here in com parison with 16 per 1,000 in the state average. "Personnel to properly admin ister the offices of the public wel fare is still our chief need,” Dr. Winston said. "Now counties are being given the opportunity to employ more interested persons, with an accent on properly train ed persons, to aid in the welfare program.” Culling attention to the fact that properly administered wel fare in many cases has a direct bearirig on court proceedings — Dr. Winston spoke on the first day of Davie superior court—she pointed out that many times the children of divorced parents be come the charges of the welfare department. In North Carohna last year, there were 10,000 di vorces, a third of whom had chil dren. "All in all,” Dr. Winston con cluded, "the welfare department has a function that is to the ad vantage of the people—protection of them and their children.” CONTEST WINNER SPEAKS ON OÜR 'PRIVILEGES AND RESPONSIBILITIES' Miss Nancy Durham, Mocks ville high school student and win ner of two echelons of oratorical contests in this area, brought lo cal Rotarians and guests up to date on the "Privileges and Re sponsibilities ot an American Cit izen” at the luncheon meeting on Tuesday. Miss Durham; daughter ot Mr. and Mrs. John Durham, emerged the winner in a contest with a student from Salisbury and to night, Friday, meets a challenger from Winston-Salem in the Boy- den high school auditorium in Salisbury. She outlined first the circum stances which occurred over a pe riod of years .to bring people of other nations to American shores, where they subsequently became Americans in name and deed, although they wer born esewhere. "Political and religious oppres sion, coupled with a. desire for the better things of life, more land on which to expand and a host of other reasons, caused many peoples of foreign birth to come to our country,” he said. Miss Durham listed among the privileges of Americans the three basic freedoms—freedom of speech, ot the press, and of as- smbly. She also outlined other privileges, including some provi- ■sions ot the Bill of Rights. “Privileges lead naturally to responsibility, however, she con tinued, "and we cannot have one without the other. Among our re sponsibilities is also the privilege ot voting, and that means voting tor the man, the right man, and not tho party, as so many of our citizens all over the country are wont to do.” Guests were Solicitor Avalon Hall of Yadkinville, Harold C. Young, Judge Dan K. Moore of Sylva, Attorney Burr Brock and Miss Hazel Turner, who furnished music for a singing program, Dr, Lester Martin presided in the absence of Dave Rankin. FARMERS TO APPLY FOR PAYMENT OF SOIL CONSERVATION PRACTICES The Davie County AAA oftica has received instructions from tho State office to have all farmers submit their application for pay ment for soil conservation prac tices carried out under tho 1947 ACP program, reports J. N. Smoot, chairman of the County AAA committee. Approximately 1,200 farmers in Davie have re ported to tho county AAA of fice the practices carried out and are now eligible tor assistance payments. To date only 1,000 have filed tho necessary applica tions. Since the new crop year is getting under way Mr, Smoot urges that the remaining farmers who have not signed applications to do so as soon as possible. This is tho final step on the part of farmrs to complete their 1947 participation. The State PMA office reports that 29 per cent of the applica- tions for payments expected for 1947 performance of conservation practices in North Carolina have been received. The Davie office desires to keep ahead of the aver age tor the state. Mr. Smoot also reported a total earnings ot $62,732,28, which is the total of practices carried out and reported to this office. This extent ot practices carried out in the county under ACP in 1947 in- cludued the use of limestone, phosphate, potash, fertilizer ma terials on pasture and legumes, green manure crops, terracing, winter cover crops and establish ing and improving pastures. These soil-improving practices have made it possible tor' farmers to provide more agricultural products for themselves, city peo ple and hungry people in other parts of the world. Sgt. Poplin Officially Reported Killed Mrs. Lizzie J. Poplin of Mocks ville has ben notified by Maj. Gen. Edward F. Witzell, army adjutant general, that her son, T-Sgt. Frank W. Poplin, has been officially reported killed in ac tion in tho Pacific ocean on De cember 30, 1944. In an official letter, Mrs. Pop lin is informed that Sgt. Poplin was in an airplane that appar ently collided with another air craft while returning from a mis sion on December 29, 1944. He was earlier reported miss ing in action, and the department concluded that since three years have elapsed since the action oc curred, it is presumptive to say that Sgt. Poplin was killed while on a combat mission. Stewardship Revival At Baptist Church Rev,^ L. R.

NO CHANGE IN FLUE-CURED TOBACCO QUOTA, SAYS USDA Secretary ot Agriculture Clin ton P. Anderson 'announced this week that, after careful investi gation ot the supply and demand situation tor flue-cured tobacco, it has been decided that no change will be made in the 1948 national marketing quota ot 955 million pounds nnnounced last November. J. N. Smoot, chairman ot the local AAA committee, explained that the purpose ot today’s an nouncement is to remove any question on the part ot growers as to whether an increase will be made in tho farm allotments tor 1948. In reviewing the situation tiie department pointed out that sup plies have been built up to high levels by the large 1946 and 1947 crops. After completion of all sales now ponding on loan stocks both for export and domestic use, there will remain more than 200 million pounds ot tiuo-eured tobacco in Commodity Credit cor poration loan stocks out ot these crops. In addition to loan stocks, dealers also hold some stocks of tobacco tor export purposes. The present largo supply resulted from the large 1946 and 1947 crops which together exceeded domes tic consumption and exports for the two preceding years by more than 300 million pounds. With average growing conditions, the 1948 crop .should exceed pur chases for domestic use by 300 million pounds or better. Conse quently, there should be available sufficient tobacco during the next year to fill both domestic and foreign requirements. Since the allotments will not be changed, Mr. Smoot stated that plans were being made to start premeasuring tobacco within the next week or so. Notices of farm acreage allotments were mailed to producers in this county some time in January.

While Other New Car Prices Are Advancing i HERE’S WHY Kaiser-Frazer can make this announcement while other new car prices spiral upward. Kaiser-Ftrazer controls its own supply of many basic raw materials ... has its own engine plant, foundry and steel mill. Materials from these sources funnel into new and modem Willow Run — the largest automobile manufacturing plant in the world under one roof. Unfinished steel goes in one end of this great plant and comes out a quality automobile, ready to be, driven away. AH this is accom> plished in a matter of hours, and with the economy of Kaiser* Frazer straight-line production. This is an achievement of men who are injecting new methods and ideas into an old industry. In the new 1948 Kaiser, Frazer, Kaiser Custom, and Frazer Man- battan you get all the features Whtrtvttyou dnvt, whtrtvtryougo.'rouiti Ihe corntr, down Iht Urul, thm ita Katitr- Fraurdtalirnaiy to tinnj/eu with gtnubtt factory por/i and approvid trvln. that others have attempted to copy since Kaise^ Frazer design was introduced in 1947. So far no one has been able to more than approximate the graceful exterior body lines. No one has come near matching the roadability... the ride resulting from sests cradled between the front and rear wheels, such wide seats with both elbow and shoulder room. And none have the style features, the wide choice of colors and fabrics. You get all this plus the many refinements made possible by yearS’Ohead engi> neering and design.

Reduce Living Costs With Home Garden You can do much toward bring ing down the cost of living and can help in an indirect way in providing food for other nations by planting a home garden, says Director 1. O. Schaub of the State College Extension Service. “Most of us do not value our gardens high enough because we gather the produce in such small quantities,” Director Schaub said. ‘‘We should remember that while the contributions are small, they are frequent and can add up to a considerable sum. A good gar den, he added can easily contrib ute from two to four hundred dollars worth of nutiritous veg etables.” “Our molto this year, continues Dr. Schaub, should be'grow more, eat better, spend loss, and feel better. The home garden fits in with our program of adjusting ourselves to loss farm income, particularly whore tobacco is grown.” Many of the best gardens were grown in town during the war years, he said. These gardens arc, still needed and the city gardener should grow a garden it ho has suitable space, enough time, and docs not mind work. Now is tho time to got your gardens started if you expect success with early vegetables, the Director said.

ENTERPRISE PAGE 7 Keep Good Tires On Your Auto Raleigh,—Statistics show that one out of every five vehicles has some mechanical defect such aa poor tires, faulty brakes, lights, wheel alignment or steering mechanisms. And one of the most important and most serious are bad tires. Are the tires on your car or truck worn so thin that a sharp curve or stone on the road would send you careening into a traffic trag edy? If they are, then you would do well to have them recapped or discard them for new ones, not only for your own safety, but to insure that your vehicle will pass its Inspection test. The Manual of Motor Vehicle mechanical Inspection Require ments states that all motor vehi cle tires "shall be free from any exposed fabric or bulges which indicate broken fabric or which exhibit dangerously weakened conditions. In 1946, 520 fatal accidents and 9,240 non-fatal accidents in the United States were caused by punctures and blowouts alone, demonstrating the Importance of keeping tires In good condition at all times. It Is believed by motor vehicle officials that tires are an even greater factor n ac cidents than is generally report ed, for often when the Investigat ing officer lists "drove off road way” as the principal cause of the accident. It Is logical to as sume that with perfect tires, brakes, and steering mechanism, the accident might not have hap pened. Help prepare your car for Its' in spection check-up by having the tires In good condition before you DR. R. L, CHILLCOTT Chiropractic Physician Phone 174 300-305 Wachovia Banlu Bid«.

PAGES THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE FRIDAYr MARCH 26,1948 Blood Truck To Solicit Donations Curtis Price, chairman of the Davie chaptcr of the American Hed Cross, nnnounced last week that in the near future a blood truck from Red Cross headquar ters will be in this area to solicit whole blood donations. ■ It is planned to send the truck around once a month, and Davie will be the first county in this district to be called upon for con tributions. The plan comes as a result of the new program inau gurated by the Red Cross this year, in order to provide whole blood in pint quantities for per sons needing certain types. Mrs. Mary Ritzert, district su pervisor of the ARC, said that it is important that contributions this first time be as liberal as possible so that the proper types of blood can be made available to any person, free of charge. A pint of blood, it was pointed out, usually costs $50 to $60. It was explained that one func tion of the program is to supply blood in any area where it may be needed. For instance, if a cer tain unusual type is needed in Davie to actually save a person’s life, it can be obtained from an other area and shipped in by Demonstrtaion To Be Given Friday, April 2 Slip cover demonstration, given by Mrsi Mary Em. Lee, house fur nishing specialist with the North Carolina Extension Service, will be held in the Community hall in Cooleemee, on Friday, April 2, beginning at 10 a.m., and will last until early in the afternoon. Women attending this meeting arc asked to bring a light lunch, consisting of sandwiches, deviled eggs and cookies or cake. The Cooleemee club will supplement the lunch with a drink. This is a special interest meet ing for all house furnishing lead ers, and any others who are in terested in knowing how to make slip covers. Use chopped apricots mixed with grated zippy cheese as a stuffing for halves of pears or peaches. Chill and spread with salad dressing.

NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATION By HOWARD J. WILLIAMS On last Thursday night a large number of farmers attended the forestry meeting that was con ducted by Howard J. Doyle, area’’ forester for Southern Pulpwood, Conservation association. Mr. j Doyle described the best methods' of managing woodlands to give | the greatest amount of growth, and produce the highest quality timber. After a discussion on for estry, a picture titled "The Woods and a Way” was shown. On Fri day morning the same picture was shown to the agriculture classes of Mocksville High school,' Friday afternoon a timber thin ning demonstration was held on the farm of Dave Beck in Jeru salem township. A tenth acre plot was measured off, marked and thinned to show the participating farmers and agriculture students the proper spacing of young trees for fastest growth. Soil samples were recently ta ken on the farm of James Barn- hardt, near Fork, to determine the type and amount of fertilizer needed for greatest and most eco nomical yields. Frank Short, east of Mocksville, W. H. Steelman, near Cana, and O. R. Allen of Farmington re cently had terraces run on their farms. It is a pleasure to walk over a farm like that of J. J. Griffith, near Smoot’s store, and see the progress that has been made. Mr. Griffith was one of the first men in Davie county to seek aid when the Soil Conservation progtam first began. His meadow strip car ries the terrace water from his fields without any sign of ero sion, he has seeded a field to al falfa, and follows a good system of rotations. Mr. Griffith says that his yields have increased sub stantially since lie changed his method of farming. Republicans Will Meet Saturday Chairman J.

At the same time a district chairman and full organization will be named. Judge Lee, Native Of Davie, Eulogized The late Judge T. Bailey Lee, a native of Mocksville, who died recently in Idaho, has been eulo gized in an address to a body of dignitaries and jurists of Idaho and other western states. The eulogist outlined Judge Lee’s career in the west, includ ing help in the founding of the city of Burley, Idaho, and citing his exceptional ability as a jurist while judge of the 11th Idaho ju dicial district. The eulogist concluded that he believed “no finer tribute can be paid to any man than to say of him that he was a capable Chris tian gentleman. So was he.” Rain totals as much as 200 inches a year in the tropical Am azon jungles. Farmers Urged to Enter One Acre Corn Contest By F. E. PEEBLES County Agent Davie county is having a one- acre one hundred bushel corn club contest in 1948 for adults and 4-H club members. We have the names of many farmers who have expressed the desire to en ter this contest. Each farmer or 4-H club member who produces a hundred bushels or more on an acre of land will be an of ficial member of the Davie coun ty and the North Carolina 100 Bushel Corn club. The purpose of the contest and club is to interest farmers in try ing to help themselves produce more corn per acre. There will be four prizes for the four farmers, and the same for 4-H club members producing the most corn on an acre. The total prizes will amount to a lit tle more than $100. They have been made possible by the local seed, feed, machinery, hardware and feed mill concerns in Mocks ville. In addition to the above men tioned prizes, each producer of 100 bushels of corn on an acre will be presented a certificate of membership to the 100 Bushel Corn club, and to those producing between 75 and 100 bushels a cer tificate of associate membership will be presented. It will surprise farmers to know how much corn con be produced on an acre of land, if the follow ing practices are carried out: Use of good adapted seed. Liebral application of fertilizer. Proper spacing. Few and shallow cultivations. You may want to have just a “pet” acre or you may want to try out for your entire crop. Oui'- goal this year is at least 100 people trying out in this con test. If you haven’t already done so, please notify the county agent’s office that you would like to en ter this contest. You never know what can be done until you try it!

Many of the present-day Eas ter traditions, such as the ex change of colored eggs and gay greeting cards at Easter time, have their origin in anclont cus toms that reach back to the dawn of civilization. The word “Easter” itself comes from Eostra, the Anglo-Saxon goddess ot Spring and pagan symbol of fertility. The snows melted and flowers bloomed when she touched the earth, the Teutonic tribes believed. According to legend, Eostra transformed lier pet bird into a rabbit who later developed into our famil'ar Easter bunny. That’s wliy the elusive, generous hare slil! builds nests like a bird and fills them with colored eggs for children. The custom ot donning now clothes for Ea.ster spi’ings from the age-old desire to "spruce up” at a time when all nature is blooming with new life. The Chi- ne.se and Nortli American Indi ans always cast off their old ap parel In the spring, and the Ro man Emperor Con.>:lantine intro duced tho custom to his royal court in the fourth century. ( Easter, which is celebrated this! year on March 28, can fall any where between March 22 and April 25. Tho Church’s Council of Nice decided in 325 A.D. that Easter should hencoforth fall on the Sunday following the first full moon after tho vernal equi nox, March 21. This was believed to be tile time when tlie Easter lilies, symbolic of Christ's resur rection, bloomed in Egypt. Today's Easter morning sun rise .services are curiously simi lar to solonm pagan religious riles hold long betoro tho time of Christ. Every year, on March 21, tribes gathered on mountain tops at dawn to celebrate tho "Festi val of the Sun,” hailing tho lengthening days and tho bogin- ning of spring. Persian sun-worshipers began their New Year on this day, aiid gave each other colored eggs, dyed with herbs. Early Chris tians consecrated eggs and con tinued to exchange them at Eas ter, staining them a deep red to symbolize the blood ot Christ. An Easter gift of colored eggs came to denote affection during the Middle Ages, and elaborately gilded eggs—often adorned with jewels—were exchanged among royal families. Colored oggs proved I'u t h e r impractical to send any distance as Easter greetings, and in the middle of the Nineteenth Cen tury the people of Northern Ger many began sending Easter cards in their place. Those early cards were religious scenes mounted on vividly-colored velvets and silks, often with a silk cord and tassel\so tliey could bo hung on the wall. Gradually flowors wore.intro duced into tho designs. Thon came tho familiar chicks, bunnies and ducks that lend such a de lightfully humorous note to tho gay present-day greetings. Most snakes have poor vision, and can hardly recognize any thing standing still, but they can follow fairly well moving objects with their eyes. Boise, Idaho, has an abundanet of hot water, having tapped wells that flow 1,200,000 gallons daily at a temperature of 170 F. and heat many of the homes.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers IJy RUTH CUIIUKNT state ilumu Dcmoiistnition Agent V/ord from the nutrition scien tists says that bacon broiled on a rncic about four inches below the flame retained tvio-tliirds of its oi-iginal thiamine while that cooked in a frying pan held less than lialf. Wasliing rice wastes not only time but also nutritive value. Mushrooms, once thouglit to add only flavor and vnrioty lo the meal, have boon found to contain perceptible amounts of B vita mins plus iron, copper and all of the essential amino acids. Nutrition scientists also say meat is one ot tho most impor tant natural sources of the B vi tamins. It contains all of them —froin the oldest, tliiamine, to tho newest B vitamin, folic acid. 11 supplies generous amounts of the tiiree vitamins for which rec ommended allowances have been established—thiamirie, riboflavin and niacin. In spite of tho fact that sev eral ot the B vitamins are af fected by heat, tho retention dur ing tlie cooking of meat is sur prisingly good.

' Spring Oats Oiler Last Chance For Producing More Feed Grain The last chance for North Caro lina farmers to produce more feed grain this year remains in the seeding of spring oats, says W. H. Rankin, associate professor ot Agronomy at the North Caro lina Agricultural Experiment Station, Mr. Rankin addresses this ad vice particularly to those farmers who were hampered in their seed ing operations last fall by rainy weather. He points out since there were fewer acres planted and since much of it went in late, there are prospects ot a very short grain crop. Oats planted in the spring sel dom yield as well as fall-seeded oats, the specialist explains. Usu- iilly there arc failures, ex tremely low and unprofitnble yield,. I'though the Experiment Station encourages more fall planting in emergencies. Early leeding and adequate fertilization are the keys to pro ducing seed yields from spring planted oats. Tests conducted by the Station in various parts of the state show that early seeding is better than late seeding. An experiment i n Wake County showed that a March ISth plant ing yielded only 18 bushels per acre, whereas February 15th seed ing yielded 47 bushels per acre. An October 15th seeding on the same type of land produced 85 bushels per acre. The fertilization for spring oats is not different from the fertili zation of other grains. Spring oats, following corn, small grains, or hay, should bo treated with a complete fertilizer—300 pounds of 3-12-6 in the Piedmont and Mountains, and 4-8-8 in, tho Coastal Plain. Following toTiacco and truck crops, wliich are usu ally iieavily fertilized, spring oats normally do not need to be fer tilized at seeding. Oats planted in the spring need nitrogen. A pale yellow color and a lack of vigor are signs of this heed. Nitrogen topdressiiig should be applied early, usualljr during the last half ot March or. early April, The Victorgrain and Fulgrain Varieties are better for spring seeding than winter-type varieties like Lee, Fog Particles Measured The smallest fog particles have been measured by the Massachu setts Institute of Technology. It was found that 25,000 of them could be placed on the head of an ordinary pin. Taught Healthy Living Five hundred years before the birth of Christ, Greek doctors be gan to teach healthy living, and some ot the wealthy people gave almost their entire time to diet, exercise, and other care of their ^ bodies.
