COLONEL MURCHISON SPEAKS ON
MILITARY POLICY OF UNITED STATES
W. G. Murchiion, retired U.S. •
army colonel, told local Rotari-
ans that in the present day we
are putting too much emphasis
on what the government owes the
individual rather than what the
individual owes the government,
and because of this fact our na
tion is insecure.
Colonel Murchison traced the
history of the United States via
Biilitary accomplishmenta from
the days of the first militia to
the pi^nt day National Guard.
H« pointed out how the United
Statcf from the days ot the early
colonlct built up the armies and
then at victory allowed them to
disintegrate and weaken the vic
tory. He explained that un
trained loldiera cannot be de
pended upon, but that the aver
age American soldier with train
ing WiU follow competent oiti-
cen into anytbi^. Colontl Mur-
chiaon pointed out that the Union
Army had it had 30,000 trained
mn C9UM hav« ended the CivU
War in M diiyt.
ColoMl Murchiion laid that he
belisved that if we had main
tained anywhere near our armed
strength at the end of World War
11 the present squabble with Bus
■ia would not have occurred. He
. pointed out that the inducements
the government ottera to gain
yolunteen.f^ ^ annrbaa fattr
ed in a number of ways, airà we
were forced into another peace
time draft. The colonel empha
sized that we should begin early
to teach our young men to be
proud to perform military serv
ice tor our country, and to quit
coddling them, pointing out that
more the individual was coddled,
the weaker he becomes.
Colonel Murchison was intro
duced by Kim Sheek, who had
charge of the program. Guests for
the occasion included Dr. John
C. Weiters, who has recently
moved to Mocksvillc, and Betty
Sue Whitaker, pianist.

the U.S. U the boU weevU which

about lUO,000.000.
This is no time for farmers to
let go ot the steering wheel of
the farm program, says G. T.
Scott, chairman of the North Car
olina PMA committee. ‘The use
of farmer-elected committees to
administer the agricultural con
servation program, price supports
and other programs has proven
effective and efficient and this
is no time to let this farm leader'
ship down by not showing up
when community elections are
held.
“The elections are not to be
confused with the regular elec
tipns tor politics candidates. In
the agricultural conservation pro
gram there are no party lines.
These farmer elections are non
political and the best farm lead
ership should be voted in,” said
the chairman.
Mr. Scott said he was not afraid
of the leadership that would be
selected if most of the eligible
farmers vote in the community
elections. “It’s when farmers get
too busy to vote that there is
danger of . losing the farmer’s
voice and influence in the admin
istration of the farm program.”
Elections in North Carolina will
be held on December 2 and De
cember 3 and all farmers who
have participated in the 1048 ag
ricultural conservation program
are eligible to vote in these elec
tions.
Notices of the elections are be
ing posted in advance of the elec
tions in the various communities.
“Each eligible farmer should
make it a point to vote in his
community,” the chairman urges.
“The backbone of the farm pro
gram is the elected farmer-com-
mittees. Their strength comet
from the support they get from
the farmers in commtuiitiet and
countiet."

WIDOW LOSES
HER BENEFITS
—A.wJrtow.ceointiy. called.at. the
field office of the Social Security
administration located at 437 Nis-
sen building, Winston-Salem, to
inquire about the possibility of
benefit payments for herself and
her three small children as the
widow of a deceased wage earn
er. She said she had seen an
article in a newspaper stating
that widows and children some
times received payments, and
since she had found a Social Se
curity card with her husband’s
name on it she decided to see
whether he had any credits which
would entitle her and the chil
dren to payments.
Upon obtaining the record of
wages reported for the deceased
wage earner, the field office dis
covered that he had sufficient
wages to be “fully insured” and
that since he had died in March
1948 the widow and children had
lost, five months benefits due to
failure to file a claim within three
months of the wage earner's
death. These lost benefit pay
ments could ntt be obtained due
to the fact that the law does not
permit retroactive payments be
yond the three months prior to
the moBth of filing.
It wu-ppinted out by Mrs. Ruth
G. Dufiy, manager of the Win-
ston-Salem field office, that there
are two times for action in Social
Security. First, wage earners
should inquire about their rights
at age 69, and second, surviving
relatives of deceased wage earn-
CTBoihauld inquire as soon as pos
sible after death. This applies
also in the case of veterans of
World War II who die within
three years after honorable dis
charge.
“The best advice we can give
residents of the counties served
by the Winston-Salem field of
fice,” Mrs. Duffy sattes “is to
inquire in every case wheVe there
has been employment by the per<
son concerned, either a wage
earner at age 65, or in the case of
deceased workers, as soon as pos
sible after death. Even where no
Social Security card can be
found ,this inquiry should be
made if the person concerned has
been employed since the law be
came effective on January 1,
1937.”
A representative is in mocks
ville on the fourth Wednesday of
each month at the courthouse,
. second floor, at 12:30 noon and at
Cooleemee on the same date at
the Erwin Cotton mills office at
11 a.m.

“WeU, you could say a man works for
a living, but there’s more to it than
just that. A man has his self-respect
to keep. He wants to work at a job he
likes. He wants to do something useful.
He wants fair pay and steady hours—
with some time to himself and his fam
ily. He wants a chance to get ahead
and he wants to save some money.
And he wants some security in case of
accident or sickness. Then, when his
working years are done, he wants to
know he can retire on an annuity."

Workers in this company today have

DONATE TOYS NOW!
The Enterprise wishes to underscore as forcibly as it
can the appeal being made by the Junior Chamber of Com
merce of Moclcsville for the people to gather up their un
wanted toys and old clothes and turn them in to be distrib
uted to the needy children of the county. This involves
no sacrifice on the part of anyone; a discarded toy is abso
lutely valueless tc the owTier.
Sometimes perhaps adults forget the thrills they got
from toys when they were mere tots. Think back a few
decades: We never tired of playing with them. The little
toy locomotive in our imagination became a powerful mo
gul drawing a long string of cars loaded with all kinds of
good things; in our mind’s eye we could see it streaking
around curves, flashing down hills, while the engineer in
a playful mood with his whistle cord played an ear-splitting
crescendo. We can’t relive those days In reality, but we
can preserve these all too fleeting Illusions for our needy
children.
So, we want to plead with our readers to ransack their
attics, basements, closets and other places, dig out the ac
cumulated toys and old clothes and have them ready at
the designated places of pickup on Saturday, December 4.

The new license fee law which
provides for basic prices instead

senger car of different weight will
be in effect for the second year.
The three basic figures to be used

passenger vehicles and a flat $60
fee for taxicabs and other service

These new rates insure owners
of heavier vehicles of a small

prices of past years. Into the $15
bracket fall Cadillacs, Lincolns,
hearses, ambulances and buses.
The $12 bracket includes Buicks.

:he $10 slot ar? grouped Chev
rolets, Fords, Plymouths, Hud
sons, Kaisers, Nashes, Frazers,
Dodges, Studebakers and other
popular models.

'ioner of motor vehicles, has
stated .that all registration cards

)f double value because all mo

state's mechanical inspection
lanes also. Examination of regis
tration certificate is a must be
fore inspection procedure begins.
Motorists whose cards have not
arrived by Decemijer 5, are ad
vised to contact the State De

indictment.

Postmaster J. E. Kelly today
appealed to local residents to
plan to mail all Christmas greet-
cards and gift packages "just as
early in December as possible.”
An even heavier flood of Yule-
tide mail is expected this Christ
mas than during the record-
breaking 1947 holiday season,
when the local post office can
celed more than 500,000 pieces of
mail.
‘‘If you postpone mailing to the
last minute this year,“the post
master warned, “you risk disap
pointing your friends. Your holi
day messages and gifts may be
caught in the rush and perhaps
not delivered until after Christ
mas.”
All packages should be mailed
before December 10 to assure de
livery before Christmas day, he
said. Christmas cards for out-of-
state delivery also should be
mailed by December 10 and cards
for local addresses should be
mailed at least, week before De
cember 25.
“We would appreciate it if peo
ple would stop in next week and
purchase the extra stamps they’re
going to need,” the postmaster
said. “This is one phase of
Christmas shopping that every
one can complete early and thus
avdd the lart-minute crowds at
pmtofTice windows.”
The postmaster pointed out that
parcel post packages cannot be
accepted unless stoutly wrapped,
and advised shoppers to lay in
supplies of heavy cardboard, stur
dy outer fourth-class labels. Pack
ages are limited to 70 pounds in
weight, and must not measure
more than ICO inches in length
and girth combined. The addrcM
should be repeated inside the
outer wrappings.

ARMCHAIR QUARTERBACKS
There are three million snd seven hundred thou*
sand people living in North Carolina. If you want
to make them mad just ttop them ftcm.being
armchair qua^backs. The individual’s right to
express his own opinion and to determine his
own action, within the limits o f decencjr, is a
proud Tar Heelia heriuge.
Listen in on any gathering of friends and you
will see what we mean by "armchair quarter*
backs." Their conversation probably will include
football. Ah, how different die scores would have
been if bnly the "armchair quarterbacks" had
called the signals. But it’s all in wholesome fun
and part of North Carolina life.
Or, by chance, the discussion may get around to
how  e participating counties and communities
should best spend their share of the more than
17,000,000 collected each year in taxes on beer
by the state of North Carolina. Some fi^vor using
these funds to keep local taxes at a minimum.
Others favor spending the beer tax funds ^for im
proved schools, better health fitcilities and mote
adequate police and fire protection.
But it makes no difference what the topic. North
Carolinians uphold the individual’s right to ex>
press openly his own opinion and to determine
his own action, within the limits of decency. Let’s
kee£; it that way.

DR. M^NUn INTRODUCES FARMERS
AND ROTARIANS TO THEMSELVES
Dr. Franklin H. McNutt, Dean
of the Graduate School of Wo
mans College of the University of
North Carolina, introduced the
individual American to himself at
the annual farmers night banquet
of the local Rotary Club last Tues
day night;
Dr. McNutt outlined the four
characteristics of the American
people as (1) Respect for other
people. (2) Willingness to cooper
ate—explaining that the average
American belonged to more things
per square inch than any other
people under the sun. (3) Inde
pendent-emphasizing that an
- American does not like to 'b e
pushed around. (4) Practical
thinking—pointing out that the
first two questions popping into
the mind of an American when
shown some gadget are “what is
it good for?” then “how much
does it cost?”
Dr. McNutt traced the evolution
of these characteristics by paint
ing a realistic picture with words
of our ancestors life in Western
Europe where the value' was
placed on land and ¿ person was
unimportant; through the emi
gration to America and the estab
lishment of the frontier where
men became important and land,
bccause of the abundance ot it,
Iw important. He showed step
by step how we acquired each of
the above characteristiis because
they were necessary ior survival
in the aew world.
Dave Rankin presided over the
program for Farmers Night and
introduced the individual Rotar
ians who in turn introduced his
farmer guest. R. B. Sanford made
the address of welcome and ex
pressed indebtedness and appre
ciation for the friendship of the
farmer. Mr. Sanford pointed out
that the 1649 farms in Davie
County lead the entire state in
being mechanized; and also that
this county produces more milk
and heifers for its size than any
other county in the state.
Among the out of, town dis
tinguished guets present for the
occassion were Harvey Dinkins,
Farm Editor for the Winston-Sa-
lem Journal, and G. Harold Make
peace, District Rotary Governor
for the 19Ist District. Mrs. Frank
Fowler of Mocksville provided
pre-dinner piano music and ac
companied a quartet composed of
Bob Hardee, R: B. Sanford, C. L.
Farthing and Graham Madison
who rendered a selection. Rev.
H. C. Sprinkle, beloved member
of the Rotary Club, passed out
cigars to all present in honor of
his 80th birthday that occurs on
December 10th. Recognition was
paid- to Francis Peebles, C. W.
Young and Paul Blackwelder who
were responsible for arranging
the Rotary Farmers Night for
1948.

SANITARIAN GIVES
MARKET RATINGS
A sanitary inspection has been
completed of the meat markets
of Davie county. These inspec
tions are made in compliance
with the regulations of the state
board of health in an effort to
maintain a high standard in our
meat markets and assure the pub
lic of a wholesome product pro
duced and handled in a sanitary
manner in a clean place, states
Carl E. Shell, sanitarian.
The score is a composite rating
of the sanitary condition of the
market area and premises, the
equipment and food products in
the market, and the operator him
self. A low score may be due to
the physical character of tht
building or to the operntor and
the manner in which he conducts
his business. The customer may
not be able to sec the inside of
the market as the sanitarian sees
it; but he can be assured of ont
thing—if a market has o high
rating, everything is in pretty
good condition. If a score is low,
the customer must be his own
judge. The grade is all wc can
give you, states Mr; Shell.
.A market making a score of 90
or above is awarded a grade A;
between 80 and 90 merits a B;
and below 80, a C. No market
may operate with a rating below
70.
Market grades arc as follows:
Allison-Johnson, Mocksvillc, 7S;
Call and Booe, North Cooleemee,
75; R. L. Foster, North Coolee
mee, 83; E. C. James, Farming
ton, 81; R. O. Kiger, Mocksville,
69.5; J. N. Ledford Co., Coolee
mee, 92.5; Sheffield Grocery,
Sheffield, 78; Smith Grove Serv
ice Station, Smith Grove, 59; Stop
and Shop, North Cooleemee, 90;
Vogler Brothers, Advance, 84;
West End Grocery, Mocksville,
90.
Inspections were also m.-ide at
Bennett and Sons of Cornatzer
and S. L. Smith Service Station
of Advance, Route 1. These op
erators have agreed to discon
tinue the sale of fresh meat until
they can comply with the require
ments of the board of health, says
Mr. Shell.

THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
Through the untiring efforts of Mayor J. H. Thompson,
and with the cooperation of a committee from the Mer
chant’s association headed by George Rowland who aided
Hugh Lagle, Lee Lyerly and their crew, the town of Mocks
ville enters into the Christmas festivities with the square
beautifully lighted in true Christmas fashion. These
brightly colored lights, artistically placed about the trees
adorning the square, will give brief moments of enjoyment
to the old and young alike, and will let all travelers passing
through know that Mocksville observes and appreciates
Christmas. The Christmas lights provide a realistic way
for the Town of Mocksville and the Merchants’ association
to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.

trees have side branches and usu-
fllJy two leaders. Select several
of the strong lateral branches and
one of the leaders, the one facing
the prevailing winds. Remove all
other branches. Thè selected
branches go to make up the scaf
fold or the frame work of the tree.
Remove one-third to rmr half of
the longest laterals aad col back
lightly the leader so that it will
be longer than tto* pruned lat*
erals. Th« pruning oi one-year
tree or "whip^ the following
year is similar to that of the
newly planted two-year tree.
The next few years light prun
ing should bt pcaetieed by re
moving branches tbat crowd tba
frame work or KaftoU branches.
Do not remove the spur like
growth as many of theae will pro
duce fruit buds.
Prunning the Peach — Newly
planted trees. Cut back large
"June-budded" trees to M inches.
Very small ones may be left to
grow one season before pruning.
Cut back one-year old trees to
24 to 30 inches and each side

toanch to one or two buds. These
buds will grow into vigorous
brandies by the end of the first
growing season.
Bi# aaxt year open the center
of the tree by cutting out the
central branch. Select several
strong branches spaced far apart
and remove the others. These
fonn the frame work of the fu-
"ture tree. Head back one-fourth
or more of the growth of thé
longest laterals and remove all
shoots or branches below the low
est scaffold limbs. The pruning
after the second year consists of
keeping the center open, a mod
erate thinning out nnd heading
back the , larger limbs an d
branches.
SPRAYING
Peach Trees—Spray with 3 per
cent dormant oil emulsion or
liquid lime sulphur to control San
Jose scale. Dilute the oil accord
ing to the manufacturer's direc
tions. Liquid lime may be used
at the rate of 6 gallons to 50 gal
lons of water. Liquid lime sulphur
will control the leaf diseases. A
3-3-SO bordeaux mixture may be
combined with the oil emulsion
to control scale insects and leaf
curL
Tbe white peach scale is more
difficult to control than the San
Joae acale. For good results,
make two applications of a 3 per
cent oil emulsion about 2 weeks.
Spray thoroughly especially on
the underside ot the limbs.
Spraying Apples—Control San
Jose scale by spraying with 3 per
cent oil emulsion. In the moun
tains scurfy and oyster shell scale
are sometimes present in our ap
ple orchards. For control in
crease the oil content of the di
luted spray to 4 per cent. Spray
thoroughly especially the under
side of the limbs. Scrape the
loose bark from trunk of old
trees before spraying in order to
reach all scales with the spray.
Aphids are a serious pest. They
can be controlled by combining
with the oil emulsion one of the
dinitro compounds. Follow direc
tions of the manufacturer.
Home Fruit Garden—The home
fruit gardener with a few trees
of tbe different 'kinds of fruit
can use dry lime sulphur at the
rate of 7 measuring cupfuls to 5
gallons «f water for the control
ot scala insects. Additional in-

PAGES THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.> ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1 Ш
STUDENTS WITNESS
FOUR PLA YS FRIDAY
The Mocksville school student
body was treated with a unique
and interesting program last Fri
day at the regular chapei period.
The Junior and Senior English
classes, under the guidance of
Mrs. Frances Luce, were divided
into four classes and each pre
sented a play.
The Juniors presented a very
short sicit from “The Man in the
Green Shirt” that depleted Bill
Mason in the part of Mr. Fuller;
Madison Angell as Ivan Ross;
Shirley Shell as Millj^p^isher; Bill
Benson jrf^W lly. ■ I'rterdther play
presentw-by the Juniors was a
modern version of the Cinderella
story. Instead of the sweet, do
cile Cinderella so familiar in the
story, the modern Cinderella was
a hateful and conceited charac
ter that had a very kind sister
and considerate mother. The
characters were: Betty Sue Whit
aker as Clarissa. Cinderella's kind
sister; Betty Wyatt as Cinderella;
Betty Lou Martin* as Lady A l-
spice, Cinderella’s mother.
The Seniors presented the old
nursery story of “Goldilocks and
'thé Three Bears,” acting out each
episode in a very capable man
ner. In this Pat Grant was
Mamma Bear; Von Shelton was
Papa Bear; John Graham Willard
was Baby Bear; and Mary Fran
ces Hockday was Goldilocks. For
their other play the Seniors lire-
sented two short sketches from
“Four Feet in the Grave.” Hazel
Sofley doubled as Ed, a white
boy, and later on as a tramp;
Betty Ann Turner was her col
ored friend, Leroy.
John Roberts, Jimmy Ciimp-
bdll and Johnny Durham w tre
in charge of the lighting ct the
stage and pulling the curtain.
Publicity managers were Dot
Shore and Jane Dwiggins.

Our County
And Social Security
By Mrs. tiitli G. Daffy, Mgr.
Money lost! Money lost! These
are sad words to any one. We
dislike using them when talking
with a person who comes in to in*
quire about old-age and survivors
insurance benefits. Mary Dale lost
$1,104 because she didn’t know
she had earned Social Security
benefits. Her case came to light
recently when she asked if the
government could help her out
with a little money. She had been
living on her savings since she
had retired, but her resources
were exhausted. We had to tell
her that she could have been re
ceiving a government check for
$23 every month since she had
retired.
The money would not have been
charity, as she had believed, but
a retirement benefit for which
she had paid, with the help of
her employer, while she was
working. She had lost money be
cause she had neglected to file
an application. It cannot be re
covered.
This, except for the name, is a
true story. Liije many others in
oiu-'iiles, it illustrates widespread
ignorance of the Social Security
la.w. It is startling to discover
how many wage earners are hav
ing one percent of their wages
deducted every pay day without
the slightest idea of what their
money buys.
One of the commonest miscon-
ceptfons is that Social Security is
a form of relief available only to
persons over 63 who are In need.’
That is not so. Social Security is
a form of insurance, a simple
business proposition under which
the wage earner pays while he is
worUag for the benefit he
retires or dies. You don’t have
to be poor to get the benefit. Even
millionaires receive it.
Two bank presidents, who live
in another field office area, re
tired recently. Both went into
the field office the same day they
retired to file their applications
for benefits. Not everyone is so
familiar with the law as bankers,
unfortunately. Here is another
; case we had recently, illustrating
this lack ot knowledge.
A widow under 63 came in to
inquire if she might receive ben
efits by reason of her husband's
death. He had died in 1943 leav
ing a son, 16. The son is now
19. so we had to tell the widow
she would receive nothing until
she reached 65. Between the
time ot her husband’s death and
the month her son became 18, she
could have received a monthly
check for $33.36. Because she had
neglected to apply sooner, she had
lost money wliich she can never
recover. Now she will have to
wait until she reaches 65, when
she will begin receiving a month
ly check for $31.50. This will be
payable only if she does not re
marry before 63.
Preventing such losses is part
ot our job. One way we can and
arc giving you information about
your rights is through this col
umn because ot the interest your
editor has in the welfare of his
fellow citizens. Another way is
for you to either write or visit
our office, if you think you may
t>e due Social Security benefits,
or it you want to find out how
the law works. We’re here to help
you.

BREED CAHLE
ARTIFICIALLY NOW
Now is the time oi the year to
have your cows bred for fall
freshening. More milk is pro
duced in the average dairy farm
during the spring and summer
than during the winibr. More
good available grazing has a great
deal to do with that. Another
cause is due to the fact that
lots of cows freshen in the spring.
A surplus of milk during the
spring and summer causes the
price to drop.
A good way to help correct this
lituation is to have cows bred so
that tlMjr Will freshen in the fall
in ordvr that they will produce
heavily dttrinf (he winter when
the supply of mUk it not enough
to take care of demand A large
amouat of milk U imported from
the state each day, but
«m id erab ly more comes in dur-
^ the winter,
The artificial brcedini ia doing
wall, but the aMoeiation should
ba MrVlng considerably more
Imnen. The average conception
rate in Davie county is equal to
that of natural breeding. There
aro doient of calvea renilting
from artificial breeding in Davie
cou^. They are fine animals.
If farmers not using the services
ot tho aasocation would see some
of thew calves I believ they would
be anxious to have their cows
bred artificially.
Each bull used in the program
is proven. His daughters produce
more milk than their mothers.
Good cows, producing lots of milk
cost very little more to take care
of than low producers. It would
be good business to raise calves
that would increase the income
from milk sales.

and 10 each morning, Sundays
included. His phone number is

Foster and local officers are in

Poultry Suggestions
Made For December
F. E. Peebles, county agent,
announces the following sugges
tions for poultry:
Place CUek Orders Now: Baby
chicks have been in. strong de
mand for several weeks and this
demand, in all probability, will
continue well into next year and
certainly through the next chick
replacement season. There will
not be an adequate supply of
Pullorum clean or of certified
chicks to satisfy all of the 1949
demand, therefore, you had bet
ter place your order now so as to
get the bird, variety, number and
quality of chicks you want at the
time you want them. Buy as
near home as possible to still get
the quality that ypu desire. In
ordering, state clearly the pur
pose for which you want chicks;
that is, do you want broiler chicks
or chicks from egg producing
bred stock.
Corysa (colds): Some flock
owners are experiencing trouble
with colds in their flock. This
condition in some cases was due
to overcrowding, poor ventilation,
damp litter, or birds roosting in
drafts. Regardless of the predis
posing causes, they should be cor
rected immediately. When this is
done, the birds usually recover.
Continue to feed a high quality
mash and grain and if colds per
sist and medication is desired,
place two teaspoons of sodium
sulfathiazole in each gallon of
drinking water. Discontinue the
use of this drug after three to five
days if flock does not respond to
treatment.
The Vse of Curtains On Freirt
ot Laying House: Curtains can be
used to a good advantage during
extremely cold or bad weather to
keep out snow and to control
drafts, hoWever, much damage
can be done to flock by th« im
proper use of curtains. The entir«
front of the open-frjpit layias

Davie County Plans
Small Grain Contest
January 1, 1949, is the closing
da'te for farmers to notify the
county agent’s office if they are
interested in entering the wheat
or oat contest. Several have al
ready indicated a desire to enter
this contst, there are others who
should participate, states Mr.
Peebles.
Each township winner for oats
and for wheat w ill have the priv
ilege to purchase six bushels of
the spectacular N. C. 5450 and N
C. 5466 varieties of wheat. These
appear to lie outstanding varieties
of wheat for this section of the
state. There w ill be a very lim
ited amount of seed for seeding
next fall. This contest will be a
means of getting some of the seed
in each township, and will be a
fair distribution. Some person
will wiix.,and the following year
there should be some of these
varieties of seed wheaT^vailable
in each township in the county.
Those entering must have about
five acres of either wheat or oats
in one field.
Any person interested in taking

TUBERCULOSIS DEATH RATE
EXPECTED TO DROP IN 1949
Americans who are iollowins
their annual custo'm oi buying
Christmas seals should experi
ence great satisfaction in the pre
diction by statisticians of the Met
ropolian Life Insurance company
that the death rate from tubercu
losis will establish an'all-time low
in 1948.
Among the company’s industrial
policyholders the death rate for
the first ten months of the year
was 13 per cent below that for
the same period of 1947, which
itself had established a record
low.
Important reductions in the
death rate from tuberculosis have
been registered in each age group
during recent years, but the great
est declines are shown at the
younger ages. As a result, the
tuberculosis problem now is be
ing concentrated at the older ages.
The statisticians foresee that this
trend w ill be accentuated in the
future as the proponen o f older
people in our population contin
ues to rise.

E.F.G.’s, Visit Your
License Examiner Now
Raleigh — If your last name
is either Edwards, Fuller, Green
or anything else beginning with
E, F or G, you’d better visit your
nearest driving license examiner
right away.
You have only until midnight
of December 31 to take a new
driving examination, according tq
the Motor Vehicle Department,
and if you don’t get it now, along
with your Christmas shopping,
you may find that the lines get
awfully long near the end of De
cember.
That was the word of warning
today from Motor Vehicle Com-
missoiner L. C. Rosser, who said
the E, F and G group of drivers
had been slow to report to the
examining stations. This group
began taking their examinations
on July 1 and will be given
through December 31.
ages reflect primarily that reac
tivation of tuberculosis lesions
acquired in earlier life,” the sta
tisticians comment. “These older
people are survivors from a pe
riod when the disease was wide
spread. A generation ago studies
showed that practically everyone
who reached adult life reacted
positively to the tuberculin test.
Nowadays a surprisingly large
proporion pf young people are
non-reactors to the teat. Recent
studies in somt rural areas in the
Middle Wwt Show all the chil-
drtn to be non-reactors.
"Spccial effort to bring older
persona into the operation of mass
X-ray campaign is recommended
as a meana ot revealing the ex
istence of many unrecognized
spreaders to tubtrcle baccilli, and
to proted their families and co
workers. Eftective case finding
in our older population w ill give
great impetus to the eradication
of the disease, which is still an
important cause of death and dis
ability in our country,” the statis
ticians state.

Living Costs To Be
Reported. a»..‘.‘.Wages”...
The Winston-Salem Social Se
curity offlce reports that while
employers usually report all cash
payments to their employes they
do not always include the money
value of other pay which is made
in some medium other than cash.
This has come to the attention of
the Winston-Salem Social Securi
ty office which handles claims
for benefit payments in the coun
ties of Forsyth, Davie, Stokes,
Surry and Yadkin. In most cases
a corrected statement from the
employer makes it possible to in
clude in the benefit calculation
the unreported wage payments
made in some medium other than
cash.
Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, manngor
of the Winston-Salem, N. C., So
cial Security office, explained
that the clord “wages” used in the
Social Security act includes pay
of any kind. It inchides salaries,
fees, back pr.y, conimisisons on
sales, as well as pay by the hour,
day or week, or by the piece. It
includes cash, of course, and it
includes payments in kind such
as meals, lodging, rent or goods.
Waitresses, waiters, cooks, or
any other persons wlio receive
part or all of their pay in tlie
form ot meals or lodging, rent,
or goods ot any sort are to be
taxed on the cash wage they re
ceive plus the fair value of any
thing else they receive from their
employers as pay for their work.
For example, if the cash wage is
$20 a week, and the employer fur
nished two hieals a day, six days
a week, the value of the meals
(fair value at time of payment)
must be added in. If the meals
are valued at 25 cents each, or
$3 a week, the wages to be re
ported would be $20 plus $3, or
$23. This is the amount which
is then credited to the person's
Social Sccurnty account.
All persons covered by the So-
-cial Security program of old-age
and survivors insurance sliould
keep in mind that benefit pay
ments are based upon their wages
from jobs, covered by the Social
Security act. This is true of pay
ments to the person’s family as
well as to the worker himself.
Therefore, for any person or his
family to receive full benfits all
"wages” must be reported.
A representative of the Social
Security office is in Mocksville
on the fourth Wednesday of each
month at the courthouse, second
floor, at 13:30 noon—also at Coo*
leemee on the same date at the
Erwin Cotton mills office at 11

YAMCIN COUNTY APPROVES HOSPITAL
The election In Yadkin county last Tuesday to vote
bonds up to $80,000 to finance a hospital project for the
county carried by a substantial majority. The bonds voted
were up to $80,000, but it is not believed that more than
$40,000 of this amount will be required to be issued. Since
the election was called, certain monies have become avail
able in Yadkin county which can be used as their part of
the amount to be furnished and this will reduce the amount
of bonds to be Issued.
The citizens of Yadkin county are to be congratulated
ior their -progressive-spirit and interest in promoting bet
ter health facilities for their county. The need fo more
adequate hospital facilities in North Carolina has become
very urgent. The few hospitals in the cities in this area
are continually overcrowded with patients filling the hall
ways and every other available space, It ig often impossi
ble to secure a room. Yadkin county, realizing the need,
took advantage last week of the federal and state hospital
aid program and will pay only a minor part of the total
cost to have a 30-bed hospital erected in their county.
Davie county has at the present time the same oppor
tunity to secure a hospital as Yadkin county. The local
hospital committee has secured for Davie an A-1 priority
because of this county’s urgent need for a hospital. The
matter now rests with the County Board of Commissioners
to call a special bond election and give the people of the
county the opportunity to vote this issue. Officials have
pointed out the need for immediate action, however, as the
possibility always remains that federal and state funds can
be withdrawn or exhausted if legal phases of the project
delay the hospital too long.

more moisture than cold air. For
this reason, care should be exer

Landon C. Rosser, Comnrission-

He added that he plans to ask
the attorney general's office if
the proposition would be legal.
The idea, Bosser said, is to try
to complete the job of inspecting
all niotor vehicles in the State by
the Dec. 31 deadline.
He added that it might not be
possible to get the idea into effect
next month, but perhaps in could
be done in January.

And these patients are treated in

It costs approximately $18 per

When the University of North

they w ill find themselves facing
a team led by one of the finest

With the mentioning of the
name Wade Walker, youngest son
ot Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Walker of
Gastonia or CherryviUe and for

of many citizens in Mocksville
will wander back fo the night of
October 30, 1930, when a disas

Mrs. Walker. It w ill be recalled
that when the fire was discovered,
it had made such headway in the
frame structure that the Walker

callcd on to raise funds. We have
been asked to raise $3,000 as our
quota 'for the annual paralysis
drive. Can we do it? Yes, we
owe it to our children and to our
nation. We hope that we w ill not
need to use this moqey, but pa
ralysis has no respect for indi
viduals, so we must be prepared
to take care of any situation which
might arise.
When you are m ntact^ by a
committee worker for a ctmtri-

you can and help make this drive
a successful campaign. The need
is great and the cause is greater.

^lOHN B. HARRIS, ALBEMARLE’S “ MAN OF THE YEAR”
iiach year the Albemarle Junior Chamber of Comm
erce selects as the city’s ‘ Man of the Year” the most out
standing man in their community who has displayed out
standing citizenship, and who has exhibited the keenest
Interest in and support of civic work during the year.
Last week John B. Harris, editor of the Stanley News
and Press, was unamiously elected as the city’s “Man of
this Year” for 1948. Excerpts from the letter sent Mr.
Harris infoming him’ of the award follow:
, , “You have lieen selected as the outstanding Man of the
Yea for your work for civic betterment of the community
and the county. Tliis award is presented to a man who
has given of his time and efforts for the good of all the
people without thought of personal renumeration or gioiy.
In selecting you by unamious voice, the club feels that it
has chosen a most worthy recipient.”
Mr. Harris has always been active in civic affairs of
Stanly County and has served as a leader in church and
club activities of many kinds. Due to his interest in the
advancement of business in Albemarle and Stanly County
he has beeii called upon and ably served as president of
the Albemarle Merchants Association and the Chamber
of Commerce. Throughout the prolonged struggle to se
cure funds to build a new hospital for Stanly County, Mr.
Harris gave uhstintingly of his time and energy in its be-
haif in publicity and as secretary of the hospital, a po
sition which he still holds. Through the editorial column
ot the Stanly News and Press, he has supported numerous
worthwhile civic projects, and has worked unceasingly for
for progress in Albemarle and Stanly County during
the twenty years he has been engaged in newspaper work.
As a result of his efforts and those of his associates, The
Stanly News and Press has established an excellent repu
tation. throughout North Carolina and the South. Mr.
Harris was elected president of the North Carolina Press
Association for 1943-44, serving also as president of the
weekly group in 1943-46.
All those who are acquainted with John B. Harris and
the Stanly News and Press agree with the Jaycees of Al
bemarle when they say “the club feels that it has chosen a
snost worthy recipient as Man of the Year.”

Secret Gifts Left
By St. Nicholas
The story of how St. Nicholas
bttnme---associatctl--w lTli "secfcr
gift-giving, and even today comes
covertly at night to leave his pres
ents, is one of tho most import
ant in the history of his life.
Once upon a time there was a
man with three daughters, all of
them wishing to marry, but with
no dowry forthcoming. Sorry, in
deed was their plight. Their fath
er had about decided to sell them
as slaves, but the good St. Nich
olas heard of it, and filling a purse
with gold, went quietly by night
to their home. Seeing a window
open, he threw in the bag of
gold and then stole away in the
night. This money enabled the eld
est daughter to marry. A second
and a third time St. Nicholas made
the trip and finally all three
daughters were married.
After the saint's third trip, the
girl's father, who had been watch
ing to see who brought the gifts,
ran after St. Nicholas and thank
ed him for his kindness. St. Nich
olas made him promise not to
divulge his gift-giving and after
that he always deposited his pres
ents so secretly that no one ever
^aw him. Yet people knew, some
how, that is was he who brought
gifts during the night, and so
whenever they found a package
mysteriously delivered they in
stantly e.\claimed, “St, Nicholas
bas brought it!"

Santa Claus School
Trains Jolly Gents
In a colonial farmhouse «t A l
bion, N. ■y., there’s a Santa Claus
school and it’s the only educa
tional institution of its kind in
the world.
Graduates wear white wig and
whiskers, red suit trinnmed in
white fur, wide white belt, and
black leather boots.
A course at the school pre
pares the prospective Santa Claus
to properly shake when he laughs
like a bowl full of jelly, remain
calm when a child glares and
yells "there ain’t no Santa Claus”
and maintain proper diplomatic
relations with a parent who thinks
Santa has given her tot the brush
off.
SANTA PICTURED
BY THOMAS NAST
Thomas Nast. the famous car
toonist who created our concep
tion of Uncle Sam, the Republi
can elephant and the Democratic
donkey, is also credited with giv
ing America its first modern pic-
torialization of Santa Claus.
Nast first sketched his notion
of Santa Claus in 1873. This San
ta was a rollicking, chubby old
man Bnoking a pipe and dressed
in what looked like a night shirt
with fur collar and cuffs. Since
that day he has grown taller and
rounder, has developed a full
white beard and mustache and
has acquired the traditional red
suit bordered in ermine.

New Year’s Gift
Of Broken Dishes
Most Americans would be per
plexed to find a pile of broken
crockery on their doorstep New
Year’s morning. However, it’s a
time-honored Danish custom to
save every dish which comes to
grief during the year and hurl
it all against the front doors of
friends and neighbors on New
Year’s Eve.
The tossers are supposed to toss
and run, but not too fast. Before
they get away the householder
is supposed to open the door and
invite them in for coffce and
doughnuts.
A pile of broken crockery
around any Danish threshold on
New Year’s morning attests the
popularity of the householder and
ia a compliment to his wife's abil
ity to make delicious coffee and
tasty doughnuts.

“A New Year’s gift to the world

Brazil New Year’s
A Summer Holiday
New Year’s Day (Dia de AnsroJ)
Bom. is. imlv. A Red Letter Day .ta
Brazil: in keeping with the !hoa~
pitality and gaiety universally
associated with the observance
of New Years, it is the day par
excellence for parties, enthusiat-
tic greeting, and general celebra
tion.
Dia de Anno Bom is the middle
day of the Brazlian holiday .sea
son which begins on Christmas
Eve and climaxes on Eplphnny.
Christmas itself does ndt .stand
out as a time ot merrymaking so
definitely as it does among the
Anglo-Saxons; the colortiil and
Impressive Christmas processions
are part of the chnrch lestivdl; in
the realm of gift-giving, Epiphany
—symbolizing the gifts which the
Wise Men brought the Infant
Jesus—vies -with and even Iholds
a slight edge o\>er Christmas, es
pecially among the children.
Since it is really June in Jan-
ttary south of the «quator, the
Christmas season lalls in Mid
summer instead of during the
winter, a fact which has endow
ed the .holidays with P}?” ? .ehar-
acteristisc ot Summer time fes
tivals. In many cities religious
and civic organizations sponsor
open air “feistas”. These affairs
are attended by throngs of people
representing all classes of the
population, gifts arc distributed
to underprivilidged children,
while music, flags, and flowers
contribute to the general gaiety
and festivity.
In a land where all festivals
are endowed with several sets of
customs — those assimilated
through foreign intercourse, etc.,
superimposed upon the ancient
tradition^! brought from Portugal
—New Year’s Day is inciudsd in
the list ot Brazil's national holi
days'and is appropriately design
ated as the day of universal
brotherhood.

HAVE TREE BASE
STAND IN WATER
Christmas trees, like flowers,
,will .resp.ond to bein^ ,kept_ with
the base in the water. Here are
two simple things to do if you
want your tree to stay green and
fresh.
Buy a tree Avhich has been cut
as recently as possible.
Cut off the end of the trunk
diagunolly, at least one incn
above the original cut. This will
expose a moist surface which will
absorb water. Stand the trunk
of the tree in water at once, and
if it is not to be taken into the
house for several days, keep it in
a «ool place.
It has been estimated that trip
lets can be expected one in 7569
births in he human family.
rr PAVS TO ADVCK'nSE
The carp has a larger brain in
proportion to its size than any
other fresh-water fish, and it is
capable of learning tricks.
IN CLOSING ANOTHER BUSY YEAR MADE POSSIBLE

CHRISTMAS MUSIC
BY BACH, HANDEL
For a great many people the
music of Bach and Handel make
diificuU Ustcnlng—until Christ
mas comes around. Then, sudden
ly, everybody starts singing and
humming tunes by the two old
masters.
The reason for this is that both
Bach and Handel were church
musicians. One of their tasks was
to compose songs for church con
gregations! to sing, "hey proved
themselves mastert> of beautiful
easily followed melodies in their
Christmas music. Our most fa
mous Christmas oratories and
carols came from Each and Han
del.
“How Brightly Beams the
Morning Star” was composed by
Bach and his “Christmas Oratorio"
contains the themes of several
other popular chorales.
In almost every town ancl vill
age in America this Christmas a
TREE DECORATIONS

church choir will render at least
a portion of George Frederick
Handel’s the “Messiah.” When
carolers sing "Joy to the World”
they’ll be singing part of the
"Messiah“ too, for that carol
</omes from themes found in the
great oratorio. Handel also com
posed the musical theme of
“While Shepherds Watched Their
Flocks."
It is a strange fact, but both
Bach and Handel were born in
1685, lived for many years within
thirty miles of each other, and
never met. Yet today, the Christ
mas music they wrote is sung
by men, women and children in
countless churchcs of many faiths
all over the world.
ular three thousands years before
the birth of Christ.
At that time the Aryian race,
living in the foothills of the
Himalaya mountains, saw in the
rays of the rising sun, bent as
they passed through humid air,
the image of a gigantic tree. These
sun poets added to the tree im
age suggestions from more dis
tant heavens; the sun, the moon.
The larger clouds suggested birds,
swans and doves flying in and
about the tree. The golden flash
of heat-lightning became the
mystical flower that grew on the
tree, the celestial mistletoe. The
showers that watered the tree
came from the streams at its base.
From these fragmentary ol'd
legends in folklore we get the
tree itself, the golden, tinsel to
represent the rising sun, the
golden fruit for stars and the
moon, swans and doves for clouds,
mistletoe for lightning and show
ers or streamers ot silver tinsel
:'or water.
The past year has been an enjoyable one. We have considered:
it a pleasure and an honor to be of service to you, our friends and
customers. Your consideration and f>ootl will are invaluable to us and
we ivish to take this.means of '.xtendinn our thanks.

Much Family Fun
In Group Games
“Malio it a real family Christ
mas this yoar by having Santa
pack a few hobby supplies or
games into his pack that tho wholo’
family can onjoy together.” This
suggestion comes from E. H. Ré
gnier, a recreation specialist at
the University ot Illinois.
There are many hobbies thot can
help bulict companionship be
tween parents and children. Moth-
esr and daughters like jewelry
construction and tapestry weav
ing. Dad and Junior go in for
model-making—airplanes, boats,
trains and other items of spécial
interest to the male population.
Everyone enjoys operating a
printing press. Small presses run
out newspapers that have a real
professional look. Shellcraft and
woodburning are hobbies that
produce genuinely useful articles.
For family fun, rubber-tipped
darts, indoor plastic horseshoes
and marble games arc excellent.
"Christmas is a time of togeth
erness,” says Reglner. “Let’s cap
italize on the situation by starting
a game or hobby that will en
courage the same type of compan
ionship the year around.”
Pagan Rites Basis
Of Many Customs
strange as it may seem, most
American Christmas customs,
stem largely from Pagan rites
practiced before the birth of
Christ.
The custom of exchanging <jifts
is one of the few that springs
from the Christion era. Christmas
candles, bonfires and Yule loge
arise from the heathen festivals
observing the winter solstice, De>
cember 21. whein the days begin
to lengthen. That was a time of
great rejoicing for ancient sun
worshippers who built bonfires to
give strength to the “winter sun-
god.”
Pre-Christian Romans orna
mented their hon-^s with green
boughs and flowers for tho Feast
of Saturnalia which began De
cember 19. Druids gathered mis
tletoe for that season, while an
cient Saxons used holly, ivy and
bay. Modern mistletoe and holly
wreaths come from tiiose peoples.
Christmas trees, too; spring
from the ancient German days
when Germanic tribes made sac
rifices to the sacred oak tree of
Odin. When the missionary St.
Boniface traveled to Germany in
the Eighth Century and saw these
celebrations he persuaded the na
tives to substitute a fir tree for
tho oak and to adorn it in a tribute
to the Christ Child.
Durmg the Middle Ages the
entire Christmas season was cele
brated in equal fervor with taht
now shown on Christmas day. In
some lands the celebration lasted
from December 24 to January 6—
Twelfth Night—and in others
from December 21 to February 2.
By the year 1644, Christmas in
England ha dbecome such a wild
orgy that the Puritans forbade its
celebration by law. ^

Our Christmas Date
Started By Romans
T.h?. . first.. cpjebrat.ip.n.. .of. .the.
birth ot Christ on December 25
took place in the fourth century.
Before that date, the commem
oration of Christ’s Nativity and
Baptism was held on January 6.
The first mention of Christmos
is found in a Roman document
known as the "Philocalian Calen
dar” in the year 354, and the first
time the festival was celebrated
in Britian was in 598, when St.
Augustine baptized 10,000 С9П-
verts.
In the year 567 the Council o!
Tours declared a twelvo-day ie.;-
tival from Christmas to Epip
hany, and in 991-1016 the laws or
dained that all strife should ccase
at Christmas. Christmas was ез-
tablislicd in 813 in Germany and
in Norway in tlie year 950.
Thousands of Bulbs
On Largest Tree
Three thousand multi-colored
electric bulbs and tons of "Span
ish moss decorate the world’s lar
gest Christmas tree located in
Hilton Municipal Park at Wil
mington, North Carolina. The
giant, 300-year-lod water oak rises
to a height of 275 feet and its
branches spread 110 feet.
Its magnificance has been on-
honced by a radio station con
structed beneath the spreading
limbs from which emanates
Christmas music that reaches the
crowds from loud speakers con
cealed in the branches and an ap
parent voice from the heavens
that comes from a speaker mount
ed atop a nearby giant water
tower.
Throngs of people gather
around it each night during De- ■
cember to listen or join in Christ-'
mas caroling. The tree won ifs|
title as the largest Christmas tree
in a contest held several years
ago.

On Christmas Eve
America’s iiTst Christmai'vras
relcburttrf- by • ChTistophtr “iCftl-
utnbus. It happened on Christmas
eve of the memorable year W92.
Columbus was planning to ob
serve th« Feast of the Nativity
with the Indian chieftan, Gna-
canagari, "who rulod over the is
land of Haitj. Already he had r«-
ceived fine presents from the
chicf who he belivBd to be great
Khan of Cipango, that fablous
realm of the Orient Columbus
mistakenly thought he 'had found.
But Columbus'. plans went
wrong. He was so tired from long
watc>ies while the Santa Maria
cruised the island channels that
he retked to his cabin for a nap.
While he was sleeping, the next
in commnd *lso decided to take
a rest and went below. The helm«-
man, as tired a» the others, de-
cided that he deserved a rest as
much as they and turned t.h? tijler
over to a cabin boy.
AbandoB Ship
The worst happeheo. Within £
few minutes the Santa Maria was
fast on a reef. The rolling surf
drove the ship higher and high
er upon the reef and opened her
■earns. Soon she fell over on her
side and the water poured into
her hull. Columbus and the crew
were forced to seek refuge on
his other ship, the Nina.
Early the next morning Colum
bus sent word of the wreck to
Chief GuBcanagari. Promptly the
Chief sent a mesage to Columbus
assuring hitn that he would give
him all the assistance needed.
The noble chieftan was better
than his word. He assembled a
great flotilla of canoes and des>
patched ttiem cto the Santa 39aria
to bring all its valuables whore.
Amid the cargo the natives saw
•nrany flBnes-liiiit-made their-eyt<S‘
open w5de with envy. Tfet so
strong vras th iir friendsH^ for
the white men and so careful
Guacanagari’s ¡supervision that
not a single article was stolen.
Cliristmas Banquet
After the last :article had '.been
brought ashore, t!uacanagari had
another plan. His .quests had miss
ed Christmas, but there was no
reason why Colnmbus and the
men should not enjoy the finw t
banquet he ' and Ibis followetii
could provide.
There was game from the
woods, lobster and fish from the
sea; and all sorts of tropical
fruits and vegetables. A thou
sand natives danced in Colum
bus’ honor after the feasting and
the climax of the ceremonies came
when the chief brought out a
coronet of gold and placed it
upon Columbus’ head. Tbtra Vvere
pre$«nt9 of gold for the crew.
tn the journal which he kept
for Ferdinand and Isabella, Co
lumbus wrote: “These people love
their neighbors as themselves;
their discourse is ever tweet and
gentle, and accompanied by a
smile. I'swear to your majesties,
there is not in the world a b ett^
nation or land.”

The greatest joy of the Christmas season is that of the little tots who
awaken early Christmas morning and gaze in pleased wonder at the
marvelous Christmas tree and the beautiful toys Santa Claus has
brought.
The happy expressions on these little faces is worth all the trouble
the grov/n-ups have taken to make the occasion a perfect one. Scenes
like the one pictured here are among the happiest memories of child
hood.
A little later on these children will begin to learn the deeper signifi
cance of Christmas. They will learn that the gifts of their parents, in the
mythical role of Santa Claus, are but symbols of God's great gift to
humanity.
The good will, love and luiselfishness of the Christmostide are but a
foreshadowing of'the peace and good will that is to prevcdl among men
through the teachings ol Jesus, whose birth the Christmas season
commemorates.
Parents should endeovor to lead their children into cm understand
ing of this deeper meaning of Christmas—a task in which the Church
stands ready to cooperate.

New Year Brings
Joy, Hope, Sadness
Superstition and curiosity
prompted the Anglo-Saxons to
climb upon their roofs as the
‘Pin Money’ Began
As New Year Gift
“Pin Money” is a New Yearls
expression.
It all started back in the time
hour of midnight approached on of the royal Stuarts of England
when gift-giving on New Year’s
day was in fashion. Gloves were
considered appropriate for most
people, but if a gentleman had
saved a little “extra” he gave
the money to his wife or sweet
heart for pins which'wer6 very
expensive at that time.
The popular ‘pin money’ phrase
in our language has survived both
ihe expensive pin and the New
Year gift-giving custom.

New eYar’s Eve—it was believed
that something might happen
when the New Year burst in and
everyone wanted to be in a po
sition to see for himself.
Perhaps more of this “some
thing might happen” superstition
has survived than is immcdiatly
apparent. Almost everyone dreads
the thought of being alone on
Now Year’s Eve: it possible, wo
gather our families and friends
around us in our homes. In a
more serious mood,, an ever in
creasing number of persons at
tend “ Watch” services to greet
the New Year in prayer and med
itation; and there is a universal
resolve to “do better” next year.
Gathering in public places, in
Times Square—of its counterpart
—we make as much noise as
possible — presumably because
our primitive ancestors utilized
noise as an expression of cele
bration, believing the din woukl
keep evil spirits and influences
at • distance.
New Year B«lla
The New Year belU have
ceased to toll for the dying year
and now welcome the New Year
with joyous peals fymbolic of the
hope with which mankind looks
forwar.d to a brighter future and
a better world, but the nostalgic
strains of Auld Lang Syne have
become so intrinsically a part of
our New Year’s Eve that even the
very gayest gatherings would be
incomplete without it.
Indeed, we stand before the
New Year with mingled senti
ments, not wholly unlike the
child of Longfellow’s sonnet: |
“Half willing, half reluctant to
be led, j
And leave his broken playthings
on the floor,
Still gazing at them through
the open door
Nor wholly reassured and com
forted I
By promises of others in their
stead.
Which, though more splendid^ |
may not please him more.” ^
IT PAYS TO ADVEaTlSE
In the glistening liglits and iiicny inaiiner
of the, Christmas Season, niiiy you find
complete Imppiiicss and joyous festivity.
And in the calmness of Christmas Day
it is oiir sincere hope lhal you
will find deep and abiding faith to carry
you through Ihe years aheaA
CHHISTMAS MOTHER’S DAY
In Yugoslavia, the sccond Sun
day before Christinas is celebrat
ed as Mother’s Day. While Mother
pretends not to notice, one of the
children slips in cautiously and
ties her feet to the chair. The
other children rush in shouting,
“Mother’s day! Mother’s day!
What w ill you pay to get away!”
The mother then buys her release
with Christmas gifts.
And with everybody's mind on Christ
mas, we particularly think of our'
friends and patrons whom we hove
•njoyed serving this post y«ar. We.
soy te all ef you, "May you hove a
vtry cheerful and happy Holiday.'

Christmas in Rome
— A-BaP.non-(ired- from ■ the -his
toric Castle of San Anglco at sun
set on Christmas Eve proclaims
the beginning of the Holy Season
in Rome. By nine o’clock every
one is in church to witness the
colorful and solemn processions
of ecclesiastic dignitaries which
precede the elaborate midnight
Mass.
Sincc everyone has fasted for
twenty-four hours, festivo ban
quets are inorder after the relig
ious solemnities. It is a gala after
midnight in Rome: hotels and res
taurants remain open, families
and friends gather around sumpt
uous tables in gaily decorated
homes; and in anticipation, of the
festivities, many peole attend
church dressed in formal attire.
Between Christmas and Epip-i
hany, the Calabrian shepherds—
Pifferani—revisit the homes
where they were most cordially
welcomed during Advent when
they came down from the hills to
play their Italian bagpipes be
fore the shrines of the Virgin.
Tiie Pifferani play for their
Advent hosts during the post-
Christmas holidays and receive
gifts ot wine, dried figs, and
small sums of money from their
hosts.
Birthday of Jesus
An Uncertain Date
It is not surprising that the
day and year of the birth of
Jesus are uncertain, for methods
of keeping track of dates during
the era when Christ was born
were not very reliable. For years
eminent scholars have been
searching tlie scriptures, and all
possible records, to try to estab
lish an exact date. So far, they
have not succeeded.
Matthew states that Jesus was
born during the reign of King'
Herod which helps to establish
the period of His birth at^d this
is the starting point from which
the scholars attempt to reckon
the year.
The statement by Matthew
(hat the wise men from the east
in inqiring “Where is He that is
born King ot the Jews?” aroused
Herod so that he ordered the
massacre of all children two years
old or less, is very significant. It
is taken as proof that Jesus must
have been born about two years
before this infamous decree waa
issued.
Noless an authority than the
Catholic encyclopedia places the
birth of Christ in the year which,
by our modern methods of keep
ing track of dates, would be 7
B. C. This, Christ’s birth does
not exactly determine the differ
ence between B.C. and A.D. date.
Most people however, do not
care if the exact day and year
of Christ’s birth are unknown.
What matters most is the death
less vigor of the Christmas spirit
throughout the world.
Nut-Bowl Filled
From Many Lands
Nuts from all over the world
go into your nut-bowl at Christ
mas. Like Christmas traditions,
the nuts so popular at this time
of year are a mixture ot many
varieties and different histories.
The English walnut, for in
stance, is not English at all. It
originated in Asia centuries ago
and was called "the food of the
gods.”
The round little filbert and
tho almond came from the Old
World. Other nuts, so familiar at
Christmas, the hickory nut, the
black walnut and the chestnut to
.say nothing of the pecan, 'are
strictly American. The pecan is
native' to America and is found
nowhere else. Two other Ameri
can nuts worthy of mention are
the chestnut and the butternut.
Altl-,ough many nuts originated
in oth 'jtr parts of the world, almost
every 4 variety known is now
growik on American soil and ex
perts ire constantly searching for
more kinda of nutf to tru ip lm t
to thi country.

Magi Were Priests
Of Persian Relipon
■ Alon? 'abuut -this-time o f Uie
year there’s a lot written, said
and sung about the Magi. Just
who were the Magi, anyway?
The Magi were priests of an
ancient Persian religion called
Zoroastrianisnj. The Greek his
torian Herodotus gives a very
favorable account of them and
their influence in a society which
existed four hundred years be
fore Christ’s birth.
According to Herodotus the
Magi were powerful in public
and private affairs. They condut-
ed the education of young prin
ces, and were in constant attend
ance upon the king as counsel
ors.'
This description ofa Magi ap
pears in the sacred writings of
Zoroaster: “Thou shouldst call him
priest, who sits the whole night
thru and years for holy wisdom'
that enables man to stand upon
death’s bridge fearless and with
happy heart the wisdom where
by he attains the holy and glor
ious world of paradise.”
.The three Mogi, or Wise Men,
who followed the Star of Beth
lehem and brought gifts of gold,
frankincense and myrrh to the
Christ child remain nameless, but
they were the first to recognize
the importance of the birth of
the Prince of ePace.
Parents Can Spoil
Children’s Play
Here’s, a Christmas resolution
for parent!. It’s one that ought
to be made before New Year’s
resolutions are even considered.
It goes, “I will keep my hands off
the children’s toys all day on
Christmas.”
It isn’t fair. The children are
crying for a little peace and free
dom. After all, adults can play
with toys for the next 364 days
if they want to.
