BROVOHTON BIANAOBR ROTARIANS HEAR ROTARY PIONEER Rotarians at Tuesday’s lunch eon meeting heard how Rotary was founded and how it grew to be one of the most powerful groups at work in the world to day. Hawley Cobb of Wadesboro, Rotarían of that city, and a long time worker for Rotary clubs in this area, said that Rotary was founded by Paul Harris years ago when Mr. Harris was a traveling man and needed companionship. “Paul Harris was lonesome for friendship, and when he met a group Qt other traveling men at > Certain time and place, usually on a Friday or Saturday, he de cided to get together with them for a few hours ot tale-telling and relaxation,” Mr. Cobb explained. “Sometimes the groups would meet in one man’s office or place of business, sometimes in anoth er’s. Soon they began to rotate, from one man’s office to another, hence the term ‘Rotary’. Then they began to meet for lunch, and it wasn't long before they began to have a few songs to relax themselves from a long day’s work or a long, tiring trip. Paul Harris had no idea when he start ed his little group of men that the organization would grow to the. extent that it has.” Guests of the club were L. B. Altman ot Raleigh and Gordon HEADS MERCHANTS W. i. WILSON DAVIE MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION TO BUILD PARK GRANDSTAND, COST $2000 the schools of the county.

WILLIAMS If a person unfumiliar with bust iish pond management were to happen by the pond of Arthur Daniel and see the dep green col or of the water he would wonder what had given the water such an unusual shade. This color is caused by microscopic plants, called algae, that furnish food for the bream that were stocked in the pond. The green color is the result of the large number of these algae caused by the appli cation of commercial fertilizer to the water. Terraces have been recently built on the farms of James Gar wood, Paul Stone, A. M. Grant, R. S. Pratt and John Nicholson. Ben A. Cope, near Advance, re cently purchased a farm through Farm Home administration and wants to tackle his soil erosion problems as one of the first steps in making his new farm a suc cessful one. Mr. Cope plans to send a meadow strip to sericea next spring to provide a suitable outlet for terraces that he plans to build when the meadow strip is well established. He plans to gradually grow into dairying and wants to get a few acres of pas ture and alfalfa seeded each year to insure plenty of grazing and good hay for his cattle.

He locked his door and came out on the street— a street wild with the howling of the wind, and the dry, powdery snow churning itself into a whirlpool of numbing cold. Tlie well-fed man buttoned his warm overcoat and turned to go to his car. Then he noticed, under a street lamp across the way, the figure of a small boy. The lad didn’t seem to be wearing any coat— or overcoat, eitlier. The man thought to himself, “Something wrong here.” So he went over to the lad, a thin boy in his shirt sleeves— on a night that would do justice to your wildest imagina tions. “W hat’s tlae matter ,son?” he said. “Having trouble?” “Oh, Dad gave me two dollars to go to the store and get some groceries,” the boy replied. “On the way down here I lost the money, and Dad's drinking now. I don’t dare go back home.” The man took the lad to his side, and together they crossed to a small grocery store. “Here, get out your shopping list and get what you need,” the elder one said. The boy bought what he came after, and the man gave him two dollars— the frightened boy even got the change, and the man took him out on the street and they both turned to go. That little thin, pale boy reached up. put his arm about the strong man’s waist, and said: “Gee . . . I wish I had a D id like you.” And each went his way. But the successful businessman didn’t go immediately to his car on the parking lot. He walked a block beyond it, and then a second. He walked four blocks down that long, wind-swept, blustery street, his long figure shadowed gro tesquely by the street lights, trying to find another boy to help, like the one he’d just left. How many of us are looking for a boy? Hawley Cobb told that story at the Rotary club and told it in a way that made us feel perhaps he wa§ the successful businessman. He described the story as being • -illustrative-of-wliat-Rotary is. and what it means and stands for. Seems to lis that life, everyday living, dealings of one man with another, should have that same quality.

NATIONAL €DITORIAL- .jüSSOgÿlON ON BEING Л GOOD MAN One cold, wintry afternon, like tlie ones we had this January and February, a successful business man decided that he would close his shop a little bit early and go home to a good meal and a comfortable chair. He locked his door and came out on the street— a street wild with the howling of the wind, and tlie dry, powdery snow churning itself into a whirlpool of numbing cold. 'Tlic^ell-fed man buttoned his warm overcoat and turned to go to his car. Then he noticed, under a street lamp across the way, the figure of a small boy. The lad didn’t seem to be wearing any coat— or overcoat, either. Tile man thought to himself, “Something wrong here.” So he went over to the lad, a thin boy in liis shirt sleeves— on a night that would do justice to your wildest imagina tions. “W hat’s tlie matter ,son?” he said. "Having trouble?’ “Oh, Dad gave me two dollars to go to the store and get some groceries,” the boy replied. “On the way down here I lost the money, and Dad’s drinking now.

CENTER CLUB The Center Home Demonstra tion club held its regular meeting April 20, in the Community build ing. Mrs. Ethel Anderson had charge of the meeting. Miss Mackie came by to tell us about the council meeting being held this Friday, also of the achieve ment day. May 7, at Concord. The meeting was opened by the members singing “Old North State” and repeating the club collect. Center Home Demonstration club was orgaidzcd March 19, 1946, with 14 charter members, Mrs. L. R. Powell president, Mrs. Wade Dyson vice president, and Mrs. Robert Evans secretary and treasurer. The club enrollment and attendance has grown each month since it was organized. They now have 39 members en rolled with an overage attend ance of 20-25. The club had the largest number in attendance at their first achievement day prO' gram, held at Wm. R. Davie school, the first year of organ ization. The community project for the past two years has been bringing equipment for serving u large number of people, since that is the way they have made most of their money for club and com munity activities and improve ment. Another reason is that members need this equipment for serving. Our family life leaders have attended the leaders’ schools in Statesville for the past two years, and, according to their recom mendation, a number of club mothers have subscribed to Par ents' magazine through the club. National Home Demonstration week. May 2-8, again brings home to us the significance and impor tance of its theme, “Today’s Home Builds Tomorrow’s World,” a topic of real concern to every person living in these trying times. In an effort to emphasize Na tional Home Demonstration week attempts will be made to draw the attention of Americans to what the rural home has con tributed toward progress and a better world. The philosophy of our organ ization is to teach the use of tal ent, time, material and money to the best posisble advantage in helping the homemaker solve her problems. Home Demonstration club work is by far the most inclusive or ganization of today; neither race, nor creed, nor social, nor finan cial condition is a barrier to mem bership. Spccial eftort is made to reach the women from, remote communities who are most likely in need of Improved home- making practiccs. Most noticeable is the fact that wherever Home Dehionstration work is carried on, we see club women gaining techniques and skills which are helping them make their homes more conven ient and more attractive; their family life one of richer experi ence and more valuable sei'vicc. Women are being trained in co operation, leadership and in many other ways that will help them carry on in other activities of school, church and community. Millions of rural women today are concerned with the problems of health, medical facilities, edu cation. recreation and housing; and they are faced, too, with the more common problems ot food, nutrition, gardens, poultry, home dairying, food preservation, home furnishings, family life, clothing and home management. Through the concentrated efforts of specialists and homo agents, rural woinen are being instructed in all these, and their homes are undergoing changc.s for the better. It is right and most fitting that wc should set aside one week in which to focus the attention of our whole nation upon the great work, being done by the Home Demonstration clubs in thousands of rural cortimunities of our land, for so much of our greatest strength and hope for the future lies in these hqmes. COOLEEMEE CLUB During the past year the Coo leemee Home Demonstration club has added several new members. A project of beautifying the park hill bank was started sev eral years ago by cleaning up and planting flowers, and has been kept up each year .by cul tivating the flowers and planting new ones. Two years ago the Home Dem onstration club helped organize a club for the colored women and have sponsored it by giving some financial aid, in the form of prizes, yearbooks, etc., and have given them moral support. This club is progressing and have, with some assistance, organized a 4-H club in the colored school. This year their club gave $7.50 in prizes for boys’ and girls’ week. Collette, and at Eaton Baptist church by Rev. E. W. Turner, Rev. J. P. Davis and Rev. Wade a member of the Eaton church for a number of years. Burial was in the church cemetery.

An activity begun last year is the sponsoring of the colored club of Cedar Creek. They are loyal attendants at their meetings and very interested in club work. Each month the leader who has charge of the lesson in our club goes to the ne.xt meeting of the colored club and presents the les son to them. Mrs. Will Myers, president of the club, is back of her leaders, and has been, in a great measure, responsible for getting them to and from training meetings, which has been a great help to them in performing their duty as a project leader.

Some of these have moved away and others have stepped in to fill the vacancy. Today the membership is 25. Last year a goal of enrolling a new member each month was almost accom plished, with 10 new members added. For the past five years their greatest achievement has been to improve the community building. The members have painted the roof and inside wood-work to gether with a few odd pieces of. furniture. Chairs have been bought and draperies huti£, to the windows. Electricity has also been installed as funds become available, it is planned to do more. The building is ‘ open for all community activities. “We invite any visitors in our community to attend our club meeting and see and hear about the work that is carried on. We are sure you will want to join and help us make Cana club the most active in the county,” said Mrs. Cecil Leagans, club secre tary. cct leaders have functioned bet ter this year than any previous year, and have not only done good work in their own club, but have worked as county leaders. Mrs. John Minor, clothing lead er, helped train the other cloth ing leaders in the county in the use of sewing machine attach ments. For this lesson she made miniature chair cushions and cur tains,, to illustrate the use of the attachments. The remainder of the Home De monstration Club news will be continued next week.

Those loaders refuse to accept a 15Vi cents an hour wage increase retroactive to Novem ber 1, 1947. This increase was recommended by an impartial Emergency Board appointed by President Truman, This increase of IS',» cents already has been accepted by the 19 other railroad unions. But the Brotherhood ot Locomotive Engineers, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and EnRinomon, and the Switchmen’s Union of North America won’t accept what more than 90% ot all railroad employes have accepted. They have called a strike to get more! Unions refuse rules discussion Certain rules chniiKcs demanded by these union lenders—whU'h would Increase wages still {«rther — were rcconntiended by tho Hoard.

How long can the American people permit a few dictatorial union leaders to defy Ihe processes provided for peareful seltlemeni of disputes? Force seldom produces settlements that are either fair or lasting. Moreover, a point is often reached when personal interests must be held. subordinate to the greater public ivelfare. That is why the railroads have ac cepted the Emergency Board recommenda tions. That is also why the leaders of these three unions shonid reconsider their decision to call a paral.vzlng strike.

FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question; What precautions should I follow to prevent fires from clectrical wiring? Answer: Extension Agricul tural Engineering specialists at State College say to have all elec trical wiring and apparatus in- .staJIecI and repaired by a com petent electrician. Electrical work by an untrained man is always hazardous. Inspect all electrical equipment frequently. Be sure that is clean, dry, and undamag ed. Adjust running motors by touching them; if too hot for com fort, they are either overloaded or in need of servicing by an elec trician. Have all work wiring and defective apparatus repaired or replaced immediately. Keep damaged equipment out of ser vice until fixed. Replace fuses with nothing but fuses of the .same type and capactity. Fuses are safety valves; to substitute anything else for them creates dangerous conditions. Keep com bustible materials away from electric lamps, motors, heaters, switches,, and other appliances. Never leave a live or hot electric iron unattended. Question: What are the daily requirements of a dairy cow? Answer; A dairy cow needs 3 to 12 gallons of water a day, and cows in milk need up to 35 to 40 gallons. Water requirements for an an imal will vary, of course with its size, amount of milk produced, atmospheric temperatures, and the nature of the feed. Extension Dairy speciahsts at State College say that it is by far the best practice to have an unlimited amount of water available to live stock at all times. PAINPROOr BABY STUMPS DOaORS Turkey- production in. 1948 will be another profitable year tor those farmers using efficient pro duction methods. Question: How should I fer tilize my tobacco plant bed? Answer; Use 150 pounds of 4' 9-3 per 100 square yards for av erage soils and 200 for soils of low fertility. If cyanamid and uramon are used for sterilization, the amount of fertilizer may be reduced one-half on fertile soils. Apply the fertilizer evenly over the bed and work lightly into the first one inch of topsoil About IVi inches should be the maximum under any conditions. Fresh weed seed should not be brought to the surface of the bed- If any such organic nitrogenous materials as cottonseed meal, tankage, or dried blood are used they should be applied several weeks before seeding so as to prevent damping oif of plants. When needed, use from 2 to pounds of nitrogen topdiessing in 50 gallons of water per 100 square yards of plant bed. The material cun be placed in a sack and suspended in tho barrel of water until it dissolves. Water the bed after the topdressing is applied with 50 gallons of water per 100 square yards of bed. Plants should bo topdressed while they are under blue mold attack. The topdressing can be used before of after the attack. Excessive applications of topdress ing are to be avoided.

MAKES DEBUT DURING BABY WEEK FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question: How can I best re- finish enameled furniture? Answer: If finish is not brok en or checked, it may be thor oughly sanded with 00 sandpaper and one coat of enamel applied. If the old finish is badly broken or checked, it should be removed. Build up new finish, using one coat of flat paint, one coat half flat and half enamel, and finish with one coat of enamel. This treatment is also necessary to change dark pieces to light color. In case mahogany and mission stained pieces are painted, a coat of shellac is necessary before en ameling, otherwise the stain will bleed into the now color. To apply enamel, it should be brushed on to the surface quick ly and freely, with the grain of the wood.

Question: What can I do to prevent intestinal parasites from infesting my poultry flock? Answer: Have good wood or preferably water-proofed con crete floors, and not dirt floors, in all brooder houses. Do not crowd the chickens. Do not let the young chickens out on the ground around the brooder house if the ground was used by chick ens the previous brooding season but instead let the chickens run out on a wire sunporch construst- ed on the south or east side of the brooder house or, if the brooder house is movable, move it to a clean range. When the chickens reach range stock size and weather permits, move them to clean range and house them in movable summer range shelters. When the pullets come into production move them to laying houses having good wood, or conci’ete floors and al low 3'/g square feet of floor space for light breeds and 4 square feet of floor space for heavy hens. Place all poultry manure and old litter in an insect proof man ure pit or place this waste mater ial on ground not to be used by chickens during the current or following season and plow it un der immediately.

VOLUME XXXI “All The County News For Everybody”MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1948 “AU The County News For Everybody”No. 10 TAX RATE UPPED VERY LITTLE WHEN SCHOOL BONDS ARE PASSED On the basis of a tax rate of 83 cents per hundred dollars of property valuation, which is Da vie county’s present rate, school bonds when passed will cost Da vie property holders a maximum of 19 cents per $100 for the first year, 18c the next year, 17c the next, 16c the next and 15 or be low for an average of 10 cents during the period of bond pay ments. These figures were released this Week by the school super intendent’s office, which pointed out that the figures represent an increase over the present taxes paid. "This means that based on the present tax rate of 83c in the county, after the bonds have been issued, the total tax rate would be $l.d2 only for the first year, then $1.01, then $1 and after that be low $1 and ranging back to 83 cents,” an office statement said. It was explained further that there are 14 counties in North Carolina having a total wealth equal to that of Davie and the average tax rate paid by these counties is 11.30 per $100 of prop- . erty valuation. One small county has a tax rate of $2.20. After the school bonds are issued, Davie will still have a tax rate lower than counties of equal wealth.

State Patrol Warns People About Mufflers The State Highway patrol warns the people that gutted muf flers, California mufflers, and straight exhausts on their cars, to remove same immediately.

Pharmacist Says lOO-Year-Olds Coming W. J. Smith of Chapel Hill, secretary of the North Carolina Pharmaceutical association, told Rotarians at'their Tuesday meet ing that man may expect a life spun uf 100 years in the not too distant future. He said that when solutions to the problem of early death are found—cancer, heart disease, and blood vessel being the most fre quent killers—man may have a life expectancy of at least 100 years instead of the present 65. “Suifa drugs, which have been discovered along with pcnicillin the last few years,” said Mr. Smith, “are the most wonderfully healing medicines that have come along to medical sciencc recent ly.” The pharmacist cited the cures that have been found right in the simplest nature, growing outside our windows, and said that he believed a cure for every disease is to be found in nature, “All we liave to do is find the particular plant, or germ, or whatever life it is that contains the cure for, say, cancer, and we have whipped one of ,the deadliest of killers known to man.” Mr. Smith was intrduccd by S. B, Hall, program chairman, and guests were Hal Shank of Mocks ville, W. H. Call and Henry L, Bridges. Journeyman’s Wage Is Key Factor The journeyman’s wage will be a key factor in etermining whether veterans training on the job under the G.I. Bill will re ceive an increase in subsistence allowance as a result of the re- cently-enactcd law raising in come ceiliAgs. f According to J. D. DeRamus, manager of the Veterans Admin istration’s Winston-Salem region al office, the journeyman’s wage will be the determining factor if it is below the new ceiling. If the journeyman's wage equals or exceeds the new ceiling, then the ceiling will be the deciding factor. The principal effect of the Aew law was to raise the ceilings on the total monthly income a Vet* «ran could have before losing the right to draw full subsistence al. lowances from VA. For an ex- service man without dependents, the ceiling was upped from $175 to $210; for a veteran with one dependent, from $200 to $270; for one with two or more dependents, from $200 to $290. Maximum monthly subsistence allowances for veterans training on the job under the G.I. Bill re main as they were. They are $65 a month for an ex-serviceman without dependents or $90 for one with any number of dependents. If a veteran’s income from oth er sources combined with his al lowance exceeds the ceiling fig ure, his subsistence is restricted proportionately. For instance, an ex-serviceman with two depend ents who is earning $200 a month would be allowed to draw his full $90 allowance if the journeyman’s wage on his job equaled or ex ceeded the new ceiling of $290 a month. But suppose the veteran is earnign $230 a month. He could draw only $60 a month allowance because this amount, plus his earnings, would bring him up to the ceiling. Here the ceiling is the determining factor. But assume the journeyman’s wage on his job is $250 a month. In that case, the veteran could draw only a $20 allowance since this is all that would be neces sary to bring him up to the jour neyman level. In this case, the journeymanf wage is the deter mining factor. The journeyman’s wage is fixed for the trainee by the North Car olina tate Department of Public Instruction, which is responsible for approving training institutions in the.state of North Carolina. The wage set is that normally earned by a worker fully trained in that field. In other words, it is the goal toward which the trainee is aiming. VA is required to abide by this figure.

Meanwhile, Tar Heel citizens agreed with their public school teachers that teachers’ salaries are too low, a poll from all over the state indicated this week. According to tabulations to date, three out of four North Car olinians think beginning teachers ecutive secretary, W. H. Plem- should get more money than the mons. The poll was made as part of the study of the state’s school sys tem now being conducted by the $1,620 they now receive. One-third of the 90,000 ques- toionnaires sent out through such agencies as the schools, civic commisison. Other questionnaires clubs, and similar organizations have been sent to school officials, parents and citizens all over the state. Results will be analyzed by the commisison before it makes its report on the schools’ strength and weaknesses to the governor and the 1^49 General assembly. Over 3,000 teachers answering concerned the problems of the teaching personnel in the public schools.

A four acre site of land do nated by Raymond Foster, near Mrs. Marcia Meroney's residence has been accepted by the hospital committee, it was announced this week'. This was the site original ly approved by the state and fed eral committees. In addition, plans for the hos pital moved ahead with the nam ing of the proposed edifice. It is to be called Davie Memorial hos pital, and the name was chosen at .the mass meeting May 7, er roneously reported as May 27, through an oversight. It was also decided to build a 30-bed sturcture, which will cost $360,000, the county to pay $77,- 760 of that amount. Meanwhile, B. C. Brock, com mittee chairman, said he had “purposely visited hospitals in other towns and counties to see how things were going,” and re ported that he was amazed by the “terrible overcrowding.” “In one place I visited, I found two and three men in one room, and the rooms were supposed to be private, not wards,” Mr. Brock said, “In one hospital, the Twin City in Winston, I saw four wom en in one supposedly private room. One man actually lay dy ing right beside another one who had just been brought from an automobile wreck. “In that connection, I am re minded that a woman died in a hallway, the only place they had to put her, some time ago in Davis hospital, in Statesville,” Mr. Brock continued. “Now that condition which ex isted in the Twin City hospital in Winston, where one man lay dying beside another one who had just been brought in, is to my mind the worst case that 1 have heard of in these parts. This is not an army base hospital in a combat zone, where that sort of thing goes on of necessity con stantly, but this is a modern city hospital in a town where every one is naturally desirous of good facilities in their public buildings. This is the sort of thing that we are fghting,” Mr. Brock con cluded.

C. ftMMAñAññlWVWWUWVWWWWWWWWVWWWWVWVflMWVVWWVVWM Fellow Democrats of Davie County and North Carolina: I hope that what I have to say may assist you in choosing the best man to vote for in the Governor’s race. Six men are asking you and me to elect them to the high office of governor. I am certain each of these men would do his very best at the job of being governor. Certainly, intelligence and honesty of purpose are two qualifications which we should always insist upon in a candidate. There is another qualification and it is just as impor tant as the two I have mentioned. It is desirable that our next Gov ernor go into office under no obligation to any particular group of politicians. He should be free from political alliances which would tend to make him merely a mouthpiece for a particular group, and not the-Governor of all the people. One of the candidates, Mr. Boyd, is quoted as saying to all the other candidates, "Don’t take the campaign too darned serious, for only one of you will be Governor anyhow.” You and I, the voters of North Carolina, must not and will not take that indifferent attitude. We must give serious consideration to this campaign, for in the Primary we will be naming a man to our highest office for a four year term. The salary and expense of the Goveràor for four years will cost you in tax money close to one hundred thousand dollars. We ought to always make a profit on our investments, so the man we name for Governor ought to be worth to us considerably more than the cost of the office. We do not want the man whom we select in our primary to just occupy the Gover nor’s Mansion. We want our next Governor to be a man unafraid to lead the way toward a better way of life for us all. Frankly speaking, it is my opinion that this race is really be tween only two of the candidates, Johnson and Scott. There is little doubt that Johnson and Scott will top the ticket, and it is quite prob able that Scott will get a clear majority over all five others in the first primary. Certainly Scott is the people’s candidate, because cer tainly there are more good, sound ond sensible voters in North Cor olina that there arc machine politicians. And I om speaking of you— the man under the truck wheel, to you, the man in the field behind the plow., to you, the housewife, to you, the lady clerk l)ehind a piece goods counter in a department store, to you, the shoe solesman, and to you, the stenographer at your typewriter. Yes, Ispeok to oil of you who are actually doing the work thot makes the wheels turn in North Carolina. And friends, never lose sight of this foct. No matter how humble your station in life, your ballot—when in the ballot box—is just as big as the ballot of the biggest politician in the State, and that the Governor of North Carolina is, or least should be, your Governor just as much as he is the Governor of the wealthiest or most powerful politician in the State. The office of Governor is yours to give and we must all take a part in seeing that is given wisely. Wc have heard a lot about machinc politics. Now let us see if we can find out just what a political machine is. Certainly it’s some thing hard to octuolly see—like a tractor, a typewriter, or a rail road engine. You can certainly feel it, and friends, many times you can smell it and the smell is not good. Have you ever heard of Tamm any Hall in New York, the Pendergrast Machine in Missouri, the Crump Machine in Memphis, Tenn., tl»e Hague Machinc ot New Jersey and tlie Kelly Machine of Chicago? All these places are a long ways from North Carolina but those of you who have read about them can certainly smell them this far away. No machinc in North Carolina will ever get as bad as these, for when things smell too high, we will certainly throw a monkey wrench info it. Here is my honest opinion as to what the political machine in North Carolina is —It is made up of office holders and their hangers-on who think it their inherent right to name any future candidates for office. Most of them have been in their appointed offices so long that they forget that the offices belong to oil the people. They just get the idea that the office is theirs. From the standpoint of the office holder, it works out pretty nicely for him to have a big hand in naming future can didates, for it certainly entrenches him more strongly in his own position. But what about the people who pay the tdkes instead of paying them through their noses? Kerr Scott certoinly is not a machine politician. When he was first elcted to the office of Commissioner of Agriculture, he was elec ted in spite of any Machine existing at that time. When he went into office he was under no obligation to any clique or group of politic ians, and, I am frank to say I believe he made us the best Commiss ioner we have ever had. He did it because he was free to act in any way he considered best for all the people. Suppose some particular group had named Scott instead of the average voter in North Caro lina. His obligation to that group would hove in a measure made him the servant of that group. i have an idea that Mr. Scott bos not made himself very popular with some big business men and bankers. It has been only a few years back when it was legal for a ton of something in a bag to be sold as fertilizer when in fact in that ton or bag there was close to 1000 pounds of honest to goodness river sand. It has been only a few years back when a manufacturer could legally sell a fertilizer with so much chlorine in it that it would absolutely ruin a tobacco crop. Farmers, you know and I know that in the past few years our yield per acre, the smoking quality and the price of our leaf tobacco has been great ly increased. It is seldom you see the old rough tips of yesteryear. Certainly I am not going to give Scott all the credit for this mirac ulous change. To my mind, a shai-e of the credit should be given à number of small independent fertilizer manufacturers who sprang up in the middle thirties and an even larger share of the credit should go to State Law which has made is unlawful to sell you a ton of so-called fertilizer with close to a thousand pounds of sand in it, or a fertili zer with enough chlorine in it to ruin a tobacco crop. Most of this legislation came about during Scott’s Administration and he had a great hand is recommending these laws, so after all, Scott should be given sòme credit. Laws just don't happen. They are the product of someone’s mind. Good laws are the^product of minds fully'acquainted with the subject. By the way, what do you think of the automobile inspection law? Did your cor pass without on extra lot of expenditures? How did that old pick-up on which you have been hauling your tobacco to morket? Do you think it possible for you to spend enough on it to make it pass? Kerr Scott did not have anything to do with passing that law. 1 saw in the Sunday, April 18th, issue of the News and Observer where Mrs. Scott had traded off her car and the old truck tor a new truck. The old truck probably would not pass inspection and they had to have a truck to get their milk to market. The old jaloppy on' which you have been hauling your tobacco to market has many mor* good loads in it even tho the left glass is broken. When Scott gets into the Governor’s Office you can count on him to use his influence to make the inspection law sensible. I got clear off the track when I began tolking about the Auto* mobile Inspection Law. I really meant to call your attention to what these fertilizer laws have meant to the farmers. Do you remember that hard, stiff, unstable crop of tobacco you raised in 1032 with $14.00 and $15.00 per ton 3-8-3? If some oite today was to offer to make you a present of 1200 pounds per acre, for your tobacco, of the kind of stuff you used in 1032 I am sure most of you would say, "No thank you”, I will just buy some fertilizer which will meet the requirements of the present Slate Law. Scott was not afraid to advocate these changes in the low for he was under no obligation to any group of people except all the people af Noctii Carotin. He will not, when he goes into office as Governor, be afraid for the same reason to advocate laws that will carry us forward. To all of us in North Carolina, I the bookkeeper, you the grocery clerk, or in whatever line of work you are engaged in it’s highly important that our farmers be given every encouragement and every opportunity to go forward. 'V.ien they go in reverse most of us will soon follow. Kerr Scott is a larm- ers’ candidate and that makes him your candidate and my candidate bccause our interest is so close to that of the farmers’ interest. Scott is not afraid to buck the tide. Scott will not be a mouth piece for a group of politicians who picked him eight years ago to be your Governor next year. Frankly I don’t think Johnson, who is known to his friends as “Charlie”, can claim this some freedom of action. As for back as 1939 0 certain group of office holders picked and began grooming "Char lie” for the event of May 29th in 1948—year primary. Soon after the ! boys had gotten Gregg Cherry sofely into the Governor’s Mansion they began to whisper around that Charlie Johnson would be the man for ’48.1 must say that Mr. Johnson must have been a good boy among the politicians for so many of them now are smiling on him and putting their shoulders to the wheel to have him nominated. By the way, did you know that one of Mr. Johnson’s campaign managers is being mentioned as the man for ’56 by the politicians? 1 refer to Mr. Tom Pearsall of Rock Mount and I believe he would make a good Governor. So far as that goes there ore a number of people right here in Davie County who would make o good Gover nor, just the same as there ore in Rowan, Wilson, Forsyth, Iredell or any of the other 100 Counties in North Carolina, and it is not to be people’s interest to let a Machine pick them. We have the vote to avoid that very thing. A lot is being said about Mr. Johnson as Treasurer of North Carolina keeping State Funds in various banks interest free, while most of the people have been paying the banks 6% for this money. Prttty nice profit to the banks. I'd say, and I j don’t blame the big bankers for supporting Johnson. The stir about I the money in banks without interest did good, for the Sunday, April 18th issue of the News and Observ’er, on the front page it was ann ounced that $15,000,000 would be invested and should it stay invested for a year it will produce in income over $150,000 dollars. A nice little nest egg for most of usf The heat Scott turned on Treasurer Johnson has already done $150,000 worth of good, has it not? By tht way, do you know whose time Johnson is using in his campaign for Governor? He is using your time because he is still drawing money you pay in taxes for his salary as Treasurer of the State of North Carolina. Yes, you are paying Charles Johnson to go around demanding the people of North Carolina to vote for him for the Democratic Nomination for Governor. Whose time do you think Scott is using in moking his compoign? Scott is using Scott’s time. He resigned as Commissioner of Agrculture when he announ ced for Governor, for he knew it was not right for him to use your tax money with which to further his candidacy. Scott is playing the game fair and he is using his own time and his own means in his campaign and does not want your taxes levied tor another purpose to be used in his behalf. As I have said before, it is quite possible for Scott to get a clear majority in the first Primary on May 29th. You know what I mean, and that is more votes than all the other four candidates. I am not saying this to try to cause you to hop on the Band Wagon. I am say ing it simply because after having talked with so many people who have expressed their confidence in Scott, bccause he, by the very nature of his policies ond campaign, will bt freer to serve oil the people in North Corolino than will any of the othersj it looks like that is what will hoppen. Just these final words in closing. It is the duty and privilege of each of us to have our say in naming our State officials. If we all will honestly exercise that privilege then we can mark Communism and all the other dangerous-isms off the list. Joe Stalin and his gang tell the people in Russia for whom to vote, and you can bet your last dollar they vote as told. That condition must not and will not exist here in North Carolina so long as we all honestly vote for the man of our choice. I, like many, many thousand others in North Carolina, believe Kerr Scott is the best man running for Governor. I sincere ly hope every one reading this feels the same, but regardless of whether you agree with’ me or not, be sure to vote on May 29th for the candidate of your choice, and then you will be voting right. Yes, it is your privilege to vote for a Governor of your own choice—it is not necessary this year to take a man the Machine has picked for you. —From a radio talk by Gilbert Peel, Greenville, N. C.

C and D Drivers Have Llttle^m eLefttoG et New Driving Licenses Raleigh.—A report issued to day by the Department of Motor Vehicles shows that since Janu ary 1 only 38,800 persons with surnames beginning with C and D have received their new driv ing licenses. This means, Department, offi cials pointed out, that some 111,- 200 per»ons4ntfae-3tetearr going to face a lot ot inconvenience in waiting in long lines unless they get their new driving permits during May. It is estimated there are around 150,000 drivers in the State with last names beginning with С and D. The deadline on С and О re newals is June 30, but June is also the month when chauffeurs’ li censes have to be renewed. The -tlepartmeirt-Mkl~4icens«s-exam iners could be kept busy during June issuing nothing but chauf feurs’ licenses, and unless the re maining C and D drivers report to their examiners during the re mainder of May, they may have trouble getting their licenses by the deadline. Officials stated that there will be atMolutely no extension to the time, and any C and D who puts off-otMalning-a-newi^-lleense must- suffer the consequences of the law—which means that if he is caught driving on an old license after June 30, he will be found guilty of a misdemeanor and will be fined not less than $29.

Broclc, who is starting to give a good deal of his time to the proposed Davie Memorial Hospital, has come up with A few facts which rather scare us. It^ would be repetitious to list them here, as you can read them for yourself bn the front page. The fact that hospitals ail over the country are crowded almost beyond belief is something that most of us might have known for some time, but the knowledge has been rather dormant. We all knew things were crowded every- wliere, but we never suspected that people were dying next to fresh, new patients in a modern city hospital 20 miles from here—with several patients in various stages of illness all in the same room—and the rooms were ostensibly pri vate, not wards. Well, it doesn’t take Professor Einstein to figure out that we need a hospital in Davie county, and we need it badly- Mr. Btpek mentioned that three Davie county peo ple came Into the Twin City hospital wliile he was there. Those people could much easier have been treated at the Davie Bfemorial, with much less expense involved and. a whole lot less trouble all around. NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATIOM A word of praise is due to Raymond Foster, who donated a large piece of land for a Davie county hospital. He gave it outright, at a time wh^n it lyas really needed, iiecause it would have taken a good while to raise the amount of money that that land is worth. It rather makes us think perhaps Raymond is like the man we mentioned last week, but some people would l)e too cynical to bslieve that. The funny part of it is, and the most generous part, is that Raymond lives in Iredell county, miles from here.

Charles Craver, near Concord church, made open drainage ditches in his bottoms to prevent surface water from spreading over the field. By practicing bed plowing in this field he expects to be able to make a good crop of corn on land that previously produced well only during the very driest summers, Loice Ijames, an industrious colored farmer on the Yadkinville highway, has two acres of fine orchard grass-and ladino clover pasture that was seeded last fall. Glen Barnhardt, near Fulton church, is preparing a field to seed to alfalfa this fall. Mr. Barn hardt is planning to turn under a good growth of cowpeas tho last of July to add organic matter to the soil. This organic matter will help to prevent the alfalfa from spewing out of the ground during the heavy freezes next winter. Ben Ellis, near Yadkin Valley church, had soil samples taken on several of his fields to deter mine the amount of lime and fer tilizer needed for best results.

KAPPA In South Calahaln township, Davie county, there ia a vicinity known as Kappa. In previous years the place boasted a post- office. a flour mill, a grocery store, a blacksmith shop, a dry kiln, a caskct and furniture shop, and a schoolhouse. It was at a home in the heart of this little country village that the ladies met in the fall of 1933 to shower a bride with gifts for her new home. On this occasion an or ganization was formed and called the Kappa Sewing circle, which met every two weeks in the va rious homes of its members. In 1935 when the state and county made it possible for Davie to have a home agent, the name was changed to the Kappa Home Dem onstration club. The club continued to hold monthly meetings in the homes of its members until October, 1938, when Davie Acadcmy schoolhouse was abandoned and the commis sioners deeded the building and grounds to the club to be used as a- community center as long as kept in repnir. The club has, bit by bit, with the cooperation and help of the citizcns of the community and county and' a friend from New Jersey, been able during the past 10 years to paint the exterior and half the interior, wire for elec tricity and quip the building with dress and undress. Poultry raising seems to be the leading project for food and pin money. Mrsr W. V. Gobble has already raised 400 fryers and has 300 small ones in the brooder house; Hrs. J. C. Anderson has raised 4S0 fryers and has 300 six wêeks~ôrd; MrsTE. D. Ijsmes has 900 chickens; Mrs. J. B. Gobble and Mrs. Felix Gobble have about 1,000 chickens each. Mrs. B. F. White, a very activt member, owns a pressure cooker, and probably does more canning, for herself, her children, and grandchildren than any other woman in the club. Five other club women own preni^e can- ners and find them so helpful that they can’t see how they ever got along without them.

She brought a report of this meeting back to the Fork club, which made members feel that it was a duty and responsi bility to do something for the rec reation of the growing and ado lescent children. It was decided to take for a project the spon soring of a recreation center for young people. They planned to open their community building one night each week for this. They were fortunate enough to have a phonograph and a few rec ords, so with generous donations they were able to add a ping-pong table, carom board, checkers, rook and various cAher games. They bought a book-case and set up a book station with books borrowed from county Ubrary. To this was ternoon visiting relatives here.

Each Christmas all shut-ins in the com munity receive favors from the club. Baskets are fixed for the needy. We remember the sick with flowers and gifts. We also prepare meals for the sick. Last year more women from our club attended the woman’s short course in Raleigh than from any other i;lub in the county. Each one that attended was a project leader and brought back many helpful hints for the club. We are also very fortunate and proud to have as a member our state president, Mrs. George Ap- person. Her work is an inspira tion to each club member. The two most enjoyable times of the year are the Christmas party and our annual picnic. The picnic is always looked forward to. The members, their families and friends all meet at some home. The afternoon is spent by lilaying games. A picnic lunch is of Home Demonstration club.

The meeting was ostensibly a gathering of persons interested in P.-T.A. and its activities but the talks and discussions by persons addrcMing^the group and by those talking among themselves quick ly turned to the bond issue and what it will mean to Cooleemee, on-the-spot observers said. The meeting was opened and county board of education chair- main T. C. Pegram introduced Curtis Price, superintendent, who explained in detail the bond issue, tax increases (which were noted in iMt w«k’« Enterprise) and the Individual improvements that would be had in each school in the county. School and town officials of Cooleemee, including J. L. James, R. V. Alexander, Rev Wm. P. Price, Mrs. C. L. Isley, Rev. Mur phy Wilds, J. G. Crawford and E. C. Tatum and Rev. G. L. Roy ster and Rev.

Mr. James moved that a committee be ap. pointed to work actively for the bond issue between now and July 20, when it is to be voted on. The motion by Mr. James was sec- . pndcd by Radford Cope, business agent of the Textile Workers Union of America, which has a branch in Cooleemee. Mr. Pegram also introduced J. B.

How soft the ball will be is. yet to be determined, it was said this week. It started like this.^some- body challenged Cooleemee to a softball game and Coo leemee unwittingly accepted —and got both organizations into something, in the opinion of some experts, because a softball can be awfully hard. However, all this will come off next Thursday afternoon at 5:15 here, and George Shutt of Mocksville will again ram rod the locals. The rules are not quite as stiff this time as they were when the local boys battled the Lions in last winter's basketball scraps. Any Rotarían or Lion who has ever played may com pete, and are encouraged to do so. We can only await next Thursday with bated breath. In talking about infectious or “catching” diseases, you will of ten hear used the term “carrier.” A “carrier” is a person who has the germs for a disease in his body, but who is not ill with the disease. He may have been sick and recovered except for a chron ic infection that docs not bother him. Or he may never have been sick. But he can give the dis ease to other persons just as sure ly as can an ill person. There are carriers for diphtheria, pneumo nia, spinal meningitis, dysentery, scarlet fever, infantile paralysis, typhoid fever, and for other dis eases of less importance in this area. One pi the most important'of these diseases is typhoid fever. In recent years typhoid has become almost a rare disease. However, in any district there are always some carriers. And this is true for our district tdb. The bowel dis charges and urine of these un fortunate people contain typhoid germs. Our district has made improvement in toilet facilities and water supplies, but there is still great danger of contamina tion of food and water. Hence there is still danger of getting typhoid fever. Typhoid vaccination is avail able in the Mocksville'health de partment officc Thursday after noon and Saturday morning. Clin ics at other points will be an nounced later.

This field day might be called a one-day fair. It will be a non-profit affair, with no gate re ceipts or other charges. There will be no carnival. The main purpose of this field day is to show the public some of the progi'css being inude in the county. It is planned to use the Mocks ville High school gymnasium and nearby grounds. Interested public workers and Grange members hope to have the following exhibits at the field day: Merchants’ exhibits; live at home booths, by Home Demon stration clubs and Granges; soil conservation and AAA educa tional exhibits; farm products (a few crops, etc.); cattle, poultry, swine; farm machinery; any oth er type of educational exhibits by Boy and Girl Scouts, 4-H clubs, FFA boys and FHA girls. At a meeting Tuesday night. May 11, the group assigned com mittees which will handle the va rious jobs necessary to promote the project. Letters have gone out to those committeemen. FORMER RESIDENT PASSES William Roy Garwood, 50, New Lexington rood, Winston-Salem, Route 4, died unexpectedly at his home at 3:45 a.m. Sunday. He was born June 23,1897, in Mocks ville, a son of William W. and Annie Marklin Garwood. His boy hood was spent in Davie county before he moved to Winston 35 year* ago. D. G. GRUBBS, 65, MOCKSVILLE, DIES D. G. Grubbs, 65, retired con tractor,' died at his home here Friday, after a six-months period of declining health. Funeral services were conduct ed at 4 p.m. Saturday at Eatons Baptist church by Rev. J. P. Da vis and Rev. E. W. Turner. Burial was in the church cemetery. Mr. Grubbs, was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Grubbs. Surviving are his wife, the for mer Miss Annie Heath; three sons, W. M. Grubbs of Savannah, Ga., P. C.

Beaton of Newport News, Va.; and IS irandchildrea and two great-grandchildim able. After that came the recent war when building materials were not available and when materials were obtainable were too high in cost to build. Now, however, a building program of some kind is a necessity. “Eight hundred thousand dol lars looks and sounds like an aw fully high figure, to you and to me and to those who are inter ested in improvements. However, if anyone who is really interested will go out and talk to a con tractor, they will realize that that cost is cheap in comparison with the benefits to be derived from its outlay. MOCKSVILLB BENEPITS “In talking to you Mocksville people, let me point out that your city will benefit to the extent ot a new auditorium. The present one has been called a fire hazard by inspectors. A lunchroom is needed—the present one is so small that the children have to hurry to get through and give others a place. Naturally, that makes for a very unhealthful con dition. The gym has been con demned and a new one is to be built. .Gymnasiums, have been said to be playhouses, but educa tors ot today know that physical education is just as important as learning arithmetic in a class room. "In Mocksvillc we need a li brary, a home ec room, and other .iacilities. .. But the one thing we need perhaps worse than any oth er is improved toilets. They are woefully lacking. All these things are provided for in thé plans which have ккгеп drawn up by an architect. "You may not have heard it, but our county is far behind in school improvements. Now that the county is growing, with other industries than we have been used to coming in here, and per sonnel from other cities and coun ties coming here with their chil dren, our school is‘ actually be ing laughed at and made fun of —only because of the facilities the other children are used to—the facilities that are now modern in every school all over the land.” The school superintendent ex plained that 14 counties have a wealth e^aljto that of Davie, but their average tax rate is $1.20, as compared with Davie’s present rate of .83. Even after the bonds are passed on, and the tax rate is raised to pay them off, Mr. Price said, the rate in Davie will be raised only to $1.03 per hun dred dollars of valuation. One smaller county pays as much as $2.00. COUNTY GAINS “‘The county is to gain possibly three teachers this next year, .with the expected increase in enroll ment, and at the present time we have not one room available in which to put a teacher, to say nothing of the three which would be required. “Ten years ago, Davie county had a property valuation of $8,- 000,000, which has since jumped to $14,500,000. Dairy cattle and crops have increased in the past ten years, and industrial activity has doubled. NetMeg like thla to the nhaels Ы the eevaty—Uttte or aethlng haa been dtM fer aad to Ow aeheelt te as edweUawl imvceveaeat way.' This would indicate that now wc can afford something better for our chil dren.” Mr. Price introduced Graham Madison, who maintained that in many schoolrooms, “such a num. ber as ^35 children were taught health, and then were forced to turn right around and break ev ery precept of learning they had ever had—they learned-nothing in the way o^ealth because they had to wash their hands (after coming in from the playground) in only 6 or 8 lavatories—far too in adequate. That number would have been all right for only 3S children, but what arc we going to do when 450 need their hands washed?" Mr. Madison stated emphati cally that experts had told him that there was not a single prop erly lighted school room in Davie county. There are only two gym nasiums in the county—at Mocks ville and at Farmington—and the latter doubles as an auditorium. OTHER COVNTOB “Well, what of other counties? We have heard that other coun ties have things better than wc. In Mecklenburg, which you may say is a wealthy county, I taught in a small school in a small town, smaller than this one. Let me say that their toilet and lav atory facilities were adequate, plenty of space, and convenient to the classrooms. Lunchrooms were very nice, well lighted, and no one was sitting on anyone else while they ate. That lunchroom, by the way, was better than any we have in Davie right now, and that was in 1942. CROWDED ROOMS “I am told that in one study hall in Mocksville high school there are 64 children, with one haggard teacher to watch them all. Of course, the teachtr is not actually teaching at the time, but how can anyone study with that many people milling around all the time? “In Cornelius, Mecklenburg county, to get back to another county, a large dining hall with a large limchroom makes it pleas ant for the children, makes them feel like learning when they go back to classrooms. On the other hand, in Cooleemee our boys are offerred one course, that which might be called college prep, and that is all one can take. Now you know as well as anyone that we need a course down there and everywhere else in the county that would teach manual labor— work with the hands is what most boys 13, 14, 15 years of age are interested in, and we have no fa cilities to teach them that. There- forç, what do they care about something that interests them not the least bit and will do not the least bit of good when they grad uate—if they ever get that far. "I call on the Mocksville Ro tary club not only to endorse the bond issue which has been pro posed, but to go out and actively support it. Some people say we cannot afford these bonds. I say that we cannot afford m$t to sup port them,” Mr. Madison con cluded.

In 1945 he personally appeared before officials ot the Ofllce of Price Administration insisting on an increaea in the ceiling price for tobacco.

Oraham Madison has told Rotarians, and he hopes the Rotarians will tell others, how the county will benefit, must benefit, by the bond issue for $800,000 worth of school Improvements. He has been in private business for two years, having spent his time before that as principal at Farmington and Cooleemee. He left school life apparently because he could not do well enough to support his family. He had to do something to make a normal living, so he quit school. He didn’t tell us that—we just guess that bccause we have a pretty fair idea how little North Carolina schools pay and how much they take out of a person in extra-curricula ac tivities. Well, Oraham said some things which we didn’t know but should have. For instance, did you know that, accord ing to experts, there is not a single properly lighted school room in the county? We had kind of suspected that many times, stumbling around the Mocksvlllc school, when any thing, a play or basketball game or something, was going on there at night. How do you think people get along in other counties? Well, Oraham answered that question for us, too. They get along a lot better than we do. Mecklenburg, for in stance, has a much more convenient set-up for its children than we do. it's a larger county, but of course their tax rate is much higher. In addition to that, the school where Graham taught there in 1942 had a better set-up all around tium we do here right now, and neither the school nor the town was anything like as large as ours. Well, people will no doubt get tired of hearing about school improvements long before we finally get them, but every time any one says anything about them, we, at least, learn something new. The thing we’re reminded of con stantly, however, is that our children are no dumber than those in other counties and if they can have the best that money can buy, why can’t we? ntlDAT, MAT 21, IMS IT'S 'ALL ABOARD' AS THREATENED RA№ STRIKE ENDS POPPIES SOLD AID CHILDREN Aiding needy children of war veterans la one of the thlngg ac complished by the memorial pop py which the American Legion auxiliary will ask everyone to wear In honor of the war dead on Poppy Day, Saturday, May 29, Mrs. R.

GOOD FARDk TO MARKET HOADS BY NEXT WINTER During the war the farm to market roads in North Citfolina sufTered from lack of attention due to the fact that materials and manpower was hard or impossible to aeciue. Today the situation is different. Every one of the candidates for the office of Governor of North Carolina has stated that better rural roads is of prime importance and has pledged himself to do everything possible to relieve the situation. . These reads are arteries that are as important to com merce as the veins in our bodies ave important to life. \7hen these arteries are clogged, the farmer, consumer and the whole section suffer because the farmers goods cannot be marketed. • A prime e.xample of the losses resulting from bad roads is the dairy industry, comparatively new in the Pied mont scction of North Carolina. This fast growing indus try has caused a great increase in travel in our rural roads since the hauler picks up tlie farmer’s milk daily. In many eases during the heavy snow and rain last winter much milk was allowed to spoil because the hauler could not get through the roads to pick il up. During this period, milk was brought into North Carolina from other states whose roads were kept open, allowing the North Carolina farmers to suffer an even greater loss. Not only milk, but eggs, meat and other vital farm products were delayed to such an extent that the farmers were forced to seek a lower mar ket because the conditions of the roads prevented market ing at the right time. The solution of the problem is vital to the future prog ress of North Carolina and immediate steps must be taken to remedy the situation before another winter. Every res ident of North Carolina is aware of the importance of doing something about our farm to market roads and if enough effort is put forth and interest shpwn by the people there is no doubt that ways and means will be fotmd to assure our 'roads getting the attention so iuatly deserved.

Fann Veteran Increases Explained The new law increasing sub sistence allowances for veterans taking institutional on-farm train ing under the G. I. Bill will ben efit only veterans training on their own farms in most cases, J. D. DeRamus, mana^r of the Veterans Administration’s Win- ston-Salcm Regional Office, de claré today. ... ■ . . A trainee must take a mini mum of 300 hours of related in struction a year to qualify for the raise, Mr. DeRamus explain ed. This is required of veterans training on their own farms but the minimum for employee train ees is 250 hours, he asserted. Thus employee-trainecs do not qualify for the increase unless they are taking at least 50 hours a year more instruction than required. On-farm trainees without de pendents will bo raised from $65 to $67.50 a month it they are el igible for the increase provided by Public Law 512. Those with one dependent will be boosted from $90 to $93.75, while those with more than one dependent will be hiked to $97.50. Prior to April 1, subsistence allowances were fixed at $65 a month for veterans without de pendents regardless of whether they were attending school or training on the job. For those with dependents, the rate was |90. Effective April 1, allowances were boosted as follows for those attending school full time; vet' erans without dependents, $75; with one dependent, $105; with two or more dependents, $120. Rates remained the same for on- the-job trainees. The higher rate applies where a trainee is taking as much as 30 hours of related instruction a year, but he is entitled to only one- fourth of his subsistence allow ance of these figures since his in struction consumes only a quarter of his time. He is paid at the on- the-job rate for the other three- quarters of his time when he is actually working. This explains why he gets only a quarter as much increase as a veteran at tending school full time. No subsistence is granted a veteran going to school less tlian a fourth of the regular time. For .that reason, ex-servicemen taking less than 300 hours of related in struction receive no part ot their subsistence allowance at the in» creased rate. Their allowance re mains the same as It they were on-job trainees. ROTARIANS ENDORSE BOND ISSUE; FARMINGTON, WM.R.

Myers, south of Bixby, turned under a good crop of sweet clover on land that he has reclaimed and brought back into production. Mr. Myers says that sweet clover is the best crop he has found for improving land and will grow on badly eroded land, if properly limed. R. H. Burton, east of Elbaville Church, says that he is having a hard time keeping his cows from over-grazing his ladino clo ver and orchard grass that he seeded last fall; the cows are tearing down the fence that sep arates this seeded area from his ordinary untreated pasture. Terraces were built on the farms of J. B. Cain, Clyde Naylor, and Angell Brothers the past few days. W. A. and H. L. Bailey, near Advance, placed an order for a carload of lime to be put on their crop and pasture lands; they put out a car of lime last year and want to keep adding more until their entire farm has been cover ed. It is unusual to see a dairy farmer that has more grass and clover than his cows are able to eat, but J. J. Hoots, near Elbaville Church, has so much good pasture that he mowed part of it for hay. The heavy rains that fell a few days ago caused severe damage to many fields throughout the county. It is easy to see that the fields that were not covered by vegetation, properly terraced, and contour tilled washed much worse than the ones where the above practices had been carried out. Demand for vegetables is ex pected to continue strong through out the year. son, Ronny, returned Wilkesboro Saturday. Mrs. J./T.

In two years new desks have been Installed in most schools, new paint has been applied in a number of rooms in some schools« the argrirolture and shop building at Mocksville has been completely remodeled and new equipment added and fireproof boiler rooms art planned for all lehoolt ot the county, according to Superintend ent Price. The home «conomica room at Mockaville high school has been separated from the lunch room, greatly alleviating crowded con- ditloM there. Damaged rooms at Mockaville have been replastered. One of the most progressive steps taken in recent years is the re moval of all Vogle type toilets, and moderniiation aa much as possible of toilet facilities in schools. “Toilets are not yet as modern or as roomy as we need, but they are better now and From One School To Another By BBTTY EATON Mocksvllle High School What! Transfer from one school to another on the threshold of my senior year? Not on your life! At least that’s what I said. Seems as if my loving parents had diff erent ideas about it though. Any way, on August 28, 1947, I en tered Mocksville High School to start my last year of public school. more convenient than they had been for years," a school official said. All lunch rooms in the county are now on the federal feeding program, with lunchroom attend- ance up considerably. Under Mr. Price, the last white one-teacher school in the county has been consolidated, and five one-teacher schools have been abolished. Mr. Price has under his jurisdiction four high schools, one colored high school, two grade schools, three two-teacher schools, and two one-teacher schools. MOCKSVILLE ANNUAL IS DEDICATED TO COL.

GREETINGS 1948 DAVIE GRADUATES We extend to you our congratulations and best wishes for your success and happiness throughout life. Your road through years of high school may not have been easy because .things were not as good .as could have been. But we, like many others, are vitally inter ested in the schools of Davie and their proper operation, for we know that education for all is progress for all. . SHUn-BOWDEN HOME & AUTO SUPPLY My first day as a dignified sen ior was so different from my strange faces, strange teachers— all strange! My spirit and heart dropped; and 1 was afraid my grades would too—but that’s be side the point. It took only a few days to re gain my high hopes and con fidence. Everyone was so nice and friendly—the students, the teach ers, and even the principal. Be lieve me, it took real friendlinen to accept a student from a rival school. But friendlineu is only one of the many things 1 love about Mocksville High. Mr. farthing with his wonderful co-operative spirit—his s— i thinking—stands out foremost among the faculty. The other tcachers; Mrs. Dryden, Miss Sugg, Mr: Williams, Miss Brooks, Mrs. Wagner, Miss Mar tin, Miss Brown, Mr. Boose and Mrs. Rankin, whether my teach er or not, were very helpful in working out schedules, helping in class activities — and literally everything. And my classmates! Was there ever a more wonderful class? Each one soon became not merely someone in my different classes, but .individuals to talk to about thhe game the night before, the past "heavenly” week end, and just friendly gossip'i in general, I must confess, I really didn’t ex pect to like it here—or the stu dents—but its putting it mildly when I say—they can’t be beat! This isn’t a comparison of schools or the attending pupils. This is my way of saying Thanks to the school, pupils, and advis ors for making my senior year a truly wonderful year. You un derclassmen really have some thing to look forward to and cher ish—YOUR senior year in Mocks ville High. Smith Hagaman Graduation Speaker The Mockaville High School graduation exercises will be held in the school auditorium this Friday, May 3S, at 8 p.m. The principal speaker for the occasion will be Smith Hagaman, member of the Forsyth Coimty Board of Education and former general superintendent of the Baptist Hospital of Winston-Sa lem.

The day we gave them out was the best ot all—the excite ment of all the students eager to see their own picture or name in black and white—eager to get to show their parents what they had accomplished during this school year These are the things of which we are proud.

While this county has felt the teacher shortage, it has been more fortunate than many in having, for the most part, well trained, experienced teachers, who make their home in the county throughout the year. Here as elsewhere, some of the better trained teachers have entered.oth- er professions, because of the low salaries. There arc others who have been kept out of the profes sion for the same reason.

Now for the students I’ll al ways remember: Danny, Kath ryn and Bet, can we ever forget our fifth period history class? And Bill Collette’s and Betsy Short's remarks In English always slay us! Oh yes. we won’t forget Ihe couples—Frances Collette and Grady Dunne, making eyes, but somehow they always survived. Then there is Ann MarUn, Hi Life editor, Marion Horn, class treasurer, and Rachel Grant, the Mocksvillian Editor who worked so hard. And Barbara Riden hour could always be relied upon to do the dirty work, such as writing the plays, class phophe- cies, and the like. And I’ll always remember William Lee (The Law) Graves. The “Law” never failed to keep us straight. And R ^ j Safley (Gabby to his friends) was i always on hand to give us a ride' to town. He could have made a million in the taxi business. Emily Wyatt, who kept the supply room, Ric'.iard Foster who always had just to go to Naval Reserve on Wednesday, Bobby dc Vault who could always be relied upon, Ella Mao Leonard who made such a good president, Earl Hendricks, and Fred Daniel who were super foot bailers, Car olyn Craven, who played a little basketball, Julia Crater, who was so nice to everybody, Bonnie Sue who was steady, .Toe Cecil McDaniel for his oustanding act ing ability in the senior play, are people who are unforgettable. There is also Joe Davis, Wilbert Potts, Lester Cook, and Leon White who will be remembered because they were so quiet and obliging, Ruth Allen because of her studious qualities and Robert. ta Bowles, Doris Chaffin, Ruth Miller, Lavaughn Smith and Jua nita Whitaker who were always such good pals and had such good timts together will be гвтетЬсг- td. Iditb White wm ba clot* in mir mtmory bMMHt Ы har fritad« But the things I'll remember most arc our ball games, espec ially football. Take the day of the Cooleemee game. Maybe it was because they were our mor> tal, long-time rivals, maybe be cause 1 was in a “yelling mood,” maybe because I had a personal interest in part of the team—our team, of course—maybe it was a cold, football-like day, but to me, there has never been such a game. The score may not stick in my memory, but the game, the way it was played, the feel ing of suspense, can never be for gotten. .Yes, our chcerleading days, our ball games, will be remem bered. And the night of Nights—the Junior-Senior banquet. 1 don’t suppo.se n i rememl>er the food or the name of the orchestra, but I’ll always remember the danc ing, the laughing and the fun. In future years I may not re member the names of all my class mates, or the teachers, but I will remember them for their out standing qualities, their influence upon me, and the admiration I have for each of them. Will we forget our class of ’48? We our selves may be forgotten . . . but we will surely never forget. initative, and plain hard work. Hazcy Hendrix \Vas selected salutatorian of the Senior Class.

These lunchrooms, which were in operation in all of the central schools as well as some of the smaUer ones, proved invaluable from the standpoint of health, economy and convenience, it is explained, but aU of them are too small, and have such inadequate facilities that children must eat too fast to allow others to take their places. Three out of four American farms grow corn. FARMINGTON BOY IS STATE 4-H KING OF HEALTH; 5-YEAR MEMBER Gene Dull, active 4-H club member in Farmington for five years, is one of the members of the graduating class this' year. He is shown above with Miss Daphion Galloway, 15-year-oId Mont gomery county girl, who was crowned princess of health along with Gene when he was crowned King of health last September. Gene is one of the most active athletes in the Farmington school, and of course is an active 4-H member.' He was crowned health winner in Davie four times prior to last year, but due to the fact that no state 4-H club contests were held during the war, he did not have a chance to compete with other contestants.
