It was the first meeting for newly elected

Zoning Board To Consider Freewood Petition January 6
U^..^ Anifinmnnt o# tVlO hoaPinO
By David Hoyle
The issue of nudity in Davie County
comes up again in January for the third
time, still veiled in legal terminology of
land use.
On January 6th, the Davie County
Zoning Board of Adjustment will begin
from scratch on an application for a '
conditional use permit to operate a private
family campground in northwest Davie
County.
The owners of the cam pground,
Freewood Associates of Winston-Salem,
will submit their application for the permit
again after an appeal of the zoning board’s
denial was remanded back to the board by
Superior Court Judge J.W . Jackson.
“ It will just start back frotn the very
beginning,’’ said county zoning officer
Bruce Tuttle. He said notices of the public
meeting on the matter will be pul in the
paper again and a sign announcing the
Trailer S h ears O ff Top
A 13-ft. 5-inch trailer was an inch too
high for the l^exington Road underpass
and shaved off the top around 3:30 p.m.
I last Saturday
The vehicle was owned by All Johnson.

It was being driven by Dennis Morrison,
49, of High Point.
Mocksville Chief of Police said his in
1 vestigation showed that Morrison was
operating a 1971 International tructor-
trailer and attempted to go under the
underpass, tearing off the top ot the
trailer The height of tiie underpash is i:i I ft. 5-inches,
Damage was estimated at $:!.mKi
meeting will be posted on the property.
The issue will still be whether a private
family campground will be a public
nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to
the public welfare. But while it was rarely
mentioned in the hearings, nudity will be a
factor.
Although the cam pground is not
specifically designated as a retreat where
clothing is optional, the owners of the 60-
acre tract of land hold a charter number
from the A m erican Sunbathers
Association.
As a result, a church-orientated anti-
Freewoodgroup, known as the Citizens of
Davie County, have hired their own lawyer
to work with county attorney John Brock.
Freewood Associates filed their petition
again on November 27 and Tuttle said tliat
a few changes will be made in the board's
procedure.
"W hat the county plans to do this time is
have recording equipment at the hearing
and record the entire process,’’ Tuttle
said, in order to keep the proper records.
At the appeal of the board’s denial of the
petition, the law yer for Freewood
Associates, Stafford R, Peebles Jr. of the
American Civil Liberties Union, argued
that a large segment of testimony had
failed to get into the record.
Tuttle also said that the chairm an of the
zoning board, Vernon Dull, will exercise
his power to swear in the witnesses.
The January 6th meeting, which is a
public hearing and open to any interested
citizens, is scheduledfor 7:30 p.m . in the
court room of the Davie County Cour
thouse.
“Basically, what the board will be
doing," Tuttle said, “is receiving any and
all evidence under oath starting from the
beginning and doing the whole thing over
again”

and R-20 to light industrial was approved
by the commissioners (see related story).
The commissioners approved the ad
dition of Spring Valley Road (located off
Milling Road) to the state road system and
their decision will be sent to the state
Highway Department office in Winston-
Salem.
A resolution was passed to renew the
authority of the tax supervisor to make tax
discoveries. The authority must be
reapproved annually.
It was decided by the commissioners to
retain ownership of the Mocksville town
square by the county and to assume
supervision and m aintenance of the
property. The trees on the square will be
fertilized. However, the board decided not
to have the trees trimmed.
Tools Are S to le n
Tools, valued at around $700, were
reported stolen from a work site at the
Ingersoll-Rand Company in Mocksville on
November 27th.
The tools, belonging to Eugene Barfield,
Robert Holt and their company, were
taken from top of a building under con
struction at Ingersoll-Rand.
Capt. R. W. Groce and Gary Edwards of
the Mocksville Police Department are
investigating.

mobile van.
The van will be staffed by two Veterans
Administration benefits coun.selors ready
lo file claims, answer questions and
provide information on the full range of
government benefits available to veterans
and dependents.
H. W. Johnson, Director of the VA
Regional Office in Winston-Salem, said the
van would be located at the County Court
House Dec. 16 and will be open for business
from 10:00 a.m . to 4:00 p.m.
The purpose of the North Carolina
mobile van tour is to reach veterans who
have not made full use of their tjcnefits and
other services of the government.
Johnson said it was part of the agency's
continuing outreach effort to “ take the VA
to the veteran."
"M any veterans are not aware of all the
help available to them, " Johnson s.iid
"M any benefits are available in home
loans, job help, on-the-job training,
education and medical care. In visiting
the communities, veterans and their
dopendcnts in easy driving distances are
invited lo bring any problems they may
have to the counselors in the vans."
The new concept of using vans to “bring
the word" lo veterans outside the major
cities where the government has most of,
its agencies located, was started in Texas?
in .lunc lit?:!. Since then, ten vans have
loured the country, providing itinerant
service lo thousands of veterans in 48 11

County Had S p lit Board In 19 3 8
What was thought to be a "first time
ever” turned out lo be a "first time since"
111 D aiie (\)un(y politics.
Lasi week's Enterprise-Record reported
"lor what is believed to be the first time in
the history of Davie County, the Board of
('ommissioners is represented by both the
Democrats and Republicans.”
Several careful readers with long
memories noted that way back in 1938 the
l)o;ud was divided between the two par
ties.
A (|uick check proved them right and
D em ocrat Jerry Anderson lost the
distinction of being the first board splitter
in the county (o being Ihe first in 36 years.
The Iasi two party board in the county
was the result of the 1938 election in which
Democrats E. C. Tatum, Sr. and T. G.
Cartner beat Republicans O. L. Harkey
and J. G. Orrell in close races.
L. M. Tutterow , the incum bent
Republican chairm an of what was then a
three-man board, received the third
highest vote, only 15 votes ahead of the
fourth man. Republican J. G. Orrell.
There were only 80 votes between the top
vote getter and the low m an in that 1938
race.
When Anderson was elected in last
month’s election, he was Ihe first
Democrat on the board in 34 years. He lead
the county ticket with 3527 votes with
Republican Charlie Brown, the other
commissioner elected, getting 3169 votes.

Sentor Sam Ervin Says |
WASHINGTON - The Senate
. and House have overriden
''President Ford’s veto of the
Freedom of Information Act
Amendments which seek to
permit the American people to
have reasonable access to
government information. I
voted to override the veto. The
measure now becomes law.
I have always been a believer
in the right of the people to know
what the truth is about the
activities of their Government.
For that reason, I supported the
original Freedom of In
formation Act of 1966. We had a
good bill when we started out to
permit the people to know what
their Government is doing. But,
as a result of the limitations and
exemptions that were inserted
in the bill and, as a result of the
reluctance of the • Executive
Branch of the Government to
observe that part of the bill
which survived, the existing law
was totally ineffective for the
purpose that was sought to be
accomplished.
The objections which were set
forth by the President in his
veto message were considered
at length by the Senate
committee during the original
hearings on the bill. They were
considered minutely and
carefully by the conference
committee. The conclusion
was reached that these ob
jections did not merit the defeat
of the bill or its alteration.
Among his objections, the
President suggested that the
Freedom of Information Act
Amendments posed a threat to
our national security because
they did not sufficiently restrict
federal court review of
executive classification
decisions. It has always
seemed to me that all judicial
questions should be determined
de novo by a court when the
court is reviewing agency ac
tion. One of the things which
has been most astounding to me
during the time I have served in
the Senate is the reluctance of
the executive departments and
agencies to let the American
people know how their
Government is operating. I
think the American people are
entitled to know how those who
are entrusted with great
governmental power conduct
themselves,
Several years ago the Sub
committee on Constitutional
Rights, of which I have the
privilege of being chairman,
conducted quite an extensive
investigation of the use of
military intelligence to spy on
civilians who. in most in
stances, were merly exercising
their rights under the First
Amendment to peaceably
assoniblo and to petition the
Government for redress of
grievaiii.'e:> At lliat lime, as
chairm an of that sub
committee, 1 was informed liy
the Secretary of Defense, when
the committee asked that one of
the commanders of military
intelligence appear before Ihe
lomniittee to testify, that Ihe
Department of Defense had Ihe
prerogative of selecting the
witnesses who were to testify
before the subcommittee with
respect to the activities of the
Department of Defense and the
Department of the Army.
On another occasion I was
informed by the chief counsel of
the Department of Defense that
evidence which was quite
relevant to the committee's
inquiry, and which had been
sought by the committee, was
evidence which, in his
judgment, neither the com
mittee nor the American people
were entitled to have or to know
anything about.
The bill, which is now law, is
designed to make more secure
the right of the American people
to know what their Government
is doing, and if there is a
question as to national security,
the Federal courts now have the
authority to review agency
classification of documents and
make their findings on the
weight of evidence.
The new provisions of law
also shorten the amount of time
a citizen will be required to wait
for the bureaucracy to produce
the requested document, and it
removes some limitations on
the kinds of information that
can be obtained in the public
interest. Enactment of these
amendments can do much to
open public business to public
scrutiny while at the same time
retaining safequards for
materials that should remain
secret.
Man
A man must stand erect, not
be kept erect by others,

D ancercise C ourse
For T eenage G irls
The Spruce Street Y. M. C. A.
has scheduled a Dancercise
course for teenage girls starting
Saturday, December 7 at 3 p.m.
Lessons will be one-hour
sessions each Saturday for eight
weeks.
The course is designed to aid
the girls in the development of
grace, rhythm , coordination
and body control.
A variety of dance patterns
will be utilized as a form of
exercise including rock dan
cing.
Substituting dance steps for
regular exercise movements
has a two-fold purpose: it takes
the boredom out of exercise and
many of the steps learned can
easily be converted to social
usage.
The most beneficial effects of
dance training is: it teaches the
body to respond to the mind,
making the exercise total.
Dorothy Covington, Y, M, C.
A. adult dance director, will be
in charge of the program. Any
type of comfortable clothing is
suitable, and the course is for
beginners.
Call the Spruce Street Y. M.
C, A. to reserve a place in the
class and for other details.

The Salisbury Optimist Club
in cooperation with the National
Association on Drug Abuse
Information for Youth are
sponsoring an area-wide drug
ahii.se information campaign.
This will be one of the most
intense drug education efforts
in tlii.s area.
The drug information cam
paign will be wide spread using
all forms of media. A
newsletter will be circulated to
residential homes. Many local
schools and churches will be
cooperating with information.
A film titled "Who Am 1" will be
shown in local schools, Sunday
schools, and meetings. This
acclaimed film was produced
t)y the national association.
The local radio station will be
involved in the drug in
formation effort with special
programs and announcements,
The nationally famous stage
show, "The Magical Land of
Oz,” will be appearing at
Keppel Auditorium in
Salisbury. This show is not a
movie but a live presentation of
the classic story. Hundreds of
thousands of dollars of
costuines and special effects
make this presentation more
elaborate than the well-known
film, The characters include a
dozen Munchkins, The Wizard,
The Wicked Witch, Dorothy,
The Tin-Man. Lion and
Scarecrow. This large cast is
made up of young actors and
actresses from the nation’s
loading college drama
departments. You will see the
witch float on a broom. Dorothy
will be sawed into three parts.
Many other spectacular
illusions highlight this
delightful fantasy show.
Philip Morris, creator and
producer of the show and
national chairm an of the
association will be visiting the
area, Mr. Morris stated that
“We believe that people don’t
abuse drugs, they abuse
themselves with drugs!” Mr.
Morris added that millioris of
dollars have been spent on
research into the tragedy of
drug usage. He stated, “We feel
that there arc many causes
behind the drug problem. We
intend to enlighten this com
munity to many of the causes
and provide important in
formation and activities for
children and parents.” Mr.
Morris asked for the entire
community to help in this im
portant effort.

By Philip Morris
1 used to think that “Drugs"
were someone else’s problem. I
didn’t abuse drugs and neither
did my teenage children. We
lived a normal suburban life.
My greatest problem was
crabgrass in my lawn. I would,
however, soon find out what
teenagers meant by terms like
“Grass”, or “High."
One warm spring night in a
quiet neighborhood, a wailing
siren and piercing red light
startled the sleeping com
munity , . A young girl hung on
to the thin thread of life as the
attendants slid her stretcher
into a waiting ambulance. They
sped away to the hospital with
their human cargo, a young
beautiful girl, suffering from an
overdose of drugs. Moments
after the ambulance arrived at
the emergency room, a car
arrived with two tearful parents
... there were many questions.
Why? How could she have done
this? Where did we fail? This
girl was my niece, Debbie; it
could have been any girl, but
this time it was one of my loved
ones. At two forty-five, my
phone rang and my brother-in-
law relayed the news about my
niece. I found it difficult to
believe, I recalled bebbie as a
baby, a toddler and a popular
young lady. Now, she lay near
death, as doctors struggled to
save her life.
As the father of four, 1
decided to cancel my stage
shows for several months and
investigate Debbie’s problem
and the problem of drug abuse.
Fortunately, I am a show
producer and an entertainer. I
have some professional friends
and, time to spend in research.
What followed was a new en
deavor I helped to create with a
group of dedicated
professionals, the National
Association on Drug Abuse
Information for Youth. We
developed a unique stage show,
“The Magical Land of Oz” and
a philosophy on drugs I will
outline in the next few articles.
Happily, Debbie recovered
from her ordeal and with the
help of her family, sh6 is now a
happy, healthy, young lady. I
found in my research that ■
Debbie was not unlike ■ many
young persons who have had an
involvement with drugs.
Fortunately, Debbie survived
and with the realization that we
do not abuse drugs but abuse
ourselves with drugs, she is
living a happy life.
Debbie had the problem that
many young people have. What
is the problem? Well, there is
no simple way to state it, except
to say that many factors are
involved. Most important is the
person’s self-image and at
titudes. This leads authorities
to say that drug abuse is really
a symptom of a deeper
problem. Naturally,
availability of drugs, group
pressures, fears, m isin
formation and homelife are
factors.
Debbie is a sensitive young
girl. She wanted to be a part of
her girlfriend’s activities. My
brother-in-law is a busy
professional busy making a
living. My sister is occupied
with her social activities. That
F a r m T i p s
By Dr. J. W. Pou
Agricultural SpeclalisI
Wachovia Bank & Trust Co., N.A.
The stage is set for “another economic squeeze”
for consumers and producers of anim al agriculture
because of the reduced production of the nation’s
feed crops during 1974.
T h at’s the opinion of Dr. T, Everett N ichols Jr.,
extension grain mari<eting economist at N orth Caro
lina State University. H e said 1974 “is shaping up
to be sim ilar to two previous feed shortage periods
— 1966, a year of drought, and 1970, the year of
corn blight.”
Late plantings together w ith devastating drought
in m any areas of the Corn Belt brought heavy dam
age to the 1974 corn and soybean crops. A nd this
comes at a time when U, S. and world grain stocks
are very low.
The U. S. D epartm ent of Agriculture forecast the
carryover of old corn on October 1 at approxim ately
450 m illion bushels, a three-week supply and the
lowest carryover in more than 26 years.
This year’s corn production was estim ated at 4.7
billion bushels, down sharply from earlier estimates
and nearly 16 percent below last year’s harvest.
T otal use of corn during the next m arketing year
is expected to be cut around 14 percent because of
higher prices, fewer anim al and poultry units, less
grain feeding of livestock and more com petition
abroad.
Nichols estim ated corn use during the 1974-75
m arketing year at 5.2 billion bushels or less, com
pared with 5.9 billion last year. Carryover at the
end of 1975 will be a m inim um .
“Look for strong prices until all the crop is in the
bin and export dem and indicates no shortage,”
Nichols said.
W ith a short corn crop in prospect, the only factor
that will temper prices is reduced export or domestic
dem and, he said. Price rations supplies as it is
now doing, and the highest price could come early
in the m arketing year.
Soybeans and soybean meal prices will continue
at relatively high levels throughout the fall, Nichols
said. W ith a carryover of around 170 m illion bushels
at the end of the season on A ugust 31, the nation’s
soybean supply for next year is expected to about
equal disappearance.
As of October 1 the U. S. soybean crop was set at
1.262 billion bushels, also considerably below last
year’s output.
T otal use during the next m arketing year is pro
jected at about 1.4 billion bushels, w ith a carryover
next September 1 of only around 60 m illion bushels.
Estim ates by the N. C. Crop Reporting Sers'ice
indicate corn production in the T ar Heel state will
be down only 2 percent and soybeans 3 percent
from last year. Corn for grain is forecast at 113 m il
lion bushels, w ith an estim ated yield of 72 bushels
per acre.
T he T ar Heel soybean crop is estim ated at 34.8
m illion bushels, down from 36 m illion last year.
Nichols pointed out that high prices at the be
ginning of the feeding season will ration available
supplies, retiuce eflective dem and and usually lead
to lower prices later in the year as new crop pros
pects materialize.
Debbie was in their words
“considerate and neat until she
started hanging out with those
four girls.” Debbie was a good
student, but her grades had
;f£ar before herdropped the
troubles.
From my
concluded
observations, I
several deep
problems were involved in my
niece's abuse of herself with
drugs. First, I feel that she
didn’t have an opportunity to
participate in constructive
activities. My relatives agree.
Perhaps, they were too oc
cupied making a living to
provide parental guidance.
Next, Debbie did not un
derstand her young emotions.
Obviously, she did not know how
to control her desire to be a part
of her girlfriend’s group. And
finally, when Debbie's problem
with drugs surfaced, her
parents didn't know how to
handle it.
Debbie began by smoking
marijuana with her girlfriends.
She did what the group did,
“smoked grass (marijuana),”
twice at parties she used “acid”
(LSD) and then a variety of
stimulants (speed) and
depressants. The day before
she od’ed (overdosed) she had
an argument with her parents
about her appearance and her
friendship with the gang.
Angered at the restriction and
frustrated, she used the only
thing she had to escape the
emotional anguish, “some
redbirds.” “Redbird” is a
nickname for Seconal, a
depressant drug sim ilar to
sleeping pills. It is clear that
many of the common myths
about drugs simply weren't true
in Debbie’s case. We will ex
plore more of these drug myths
and facts in our future articles
“About Dope.”

The 16th annual Charity
League of Lexington Holiday
House tour will offer area
visitors an opportunity to visit
the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Hubert Philpott in the Sapona
Country Club residential area
on Indian Wells Circle.
League members will join the
host and hostess in welcoming
guests on Thursday, December
5, between the hours of 10 a.m.
and 8 p.m. Tickets for the tour
and same day Bazaar at the
YMCA in Lexington may be
secured from any Charity
League member.
Of French Provincial ar
chitecture, set on a gentle slope
overlooking the golf course
lake, this year’s Holiday House
selection is a picture book both
inside and out. The outside of
the house features oversized
Jefferson brick, dark shutters,
mansard roof and massive
paneled double doors.
Architect Pete Peterson of
Greensboro designed the home
to the owner's specifications.
There are 10 main rooms, 5%
baths, and a number of dressing
rooms all on a signle floor. A
feature of the design is a
beautifully window-lighted and
blue shag carpeted hall uniting
both wings and the main body of
the house.Visitors enter the home
through a well-proportioned
foyer and to the left and right of
the foyer, down the hallway,
Mr. and Mrs, Philpott are
gradually creating their own
private art gallery. Already
hanging on the blue walls are
some paintings and prints by
Lexington artist Bob Tim-
berlake and the late A1 Kapp, a
close friend and former
salesman for the United
Division of Burlington House
Furniture.
The living room, with its wall
of glass overlooking the rear
terrace, is done in shades of
pale blue, white and burgandy.
Love seats of blue velvet flank
the marble fireplace and are
complimented by a pair of blue
brocade chairs and another in
burgandy. Drapes in the living
room and adjoining dining room
are of white silk. The walls as
well as the dining room dado
are of antiqued white paneling
with decorative moulding. On
either side of the fireplace are
recessed shells with shell motifs
which were created especially
to display a portion of Mrs.
Philpott’s collection of more
than 350 pitchers of all shapes
and sizes.
The dining room walls are
covered in pale blue raw silk
wall covering. One wall
features a handpainted birds
and trees panel done especially
for the Philpotts by a California
artist. The flooring is wood
parquet in combination with a
Persian rug. The furniture is of
Italian styling and a handsome
lighted breakfront houses a
lively collection of antique
objects d’art.
Across the hall from the
dining room is the kitchen with
handmade cabinets with
cathedral doors, white counter
tops and patterned wallpaper
in shades of yellow, green and
blue and slate-like flooring. The
beakfast table and chairs are
finished in French blue. There
is a center island which sports a
Corning counter top unit and a
double grill for charcoaling and
other specialty cooking. There
is a counter-top-installed food-a-
matic for small appliances.
Included to be used on a single
electrical base are mixer,
blender, salad maker, juicer,
ice cream maker, French fryer,
and even a corkscrew-like
kneader for bread making.
The utility room adjacent to
the kitchen is also large,
providing ample space for
laundry tasks and a sewing
niche.
Convenient to the kitchen is
the oak paneled den with a
fieldstone fireplace and parquet
floor. An entertainment center
includes a record player, tape
player and AM-FM radio
controlled from a wall mounted
unit behind carved doors.
The bedroom wing is located
at the opposite end of the home.
It features four rooms each with
its own bath and dressing
facilities.
The Philpott’s son Arthur’s
room is done in shades of burnt
orange, green and brown. One
of the daughter's bedroom is
ultra feminine with pale blue
walls, raspberry shag car
peting, rural French furniture
and a colorful array of quilted
coverlets, dust ruffles, swags,
jabots, and upholstery of floral
blue, raspberry and lavendar.
The other daughter’s room is
more tailored, decorated in
greens and golds. The master
bedroom suite is of blue and
white spiced with accents of
gold. Adjacent to the bedroom
are individual bathrooms for
the owners and multi-storaged
dressing areas for both.
The shelf lined library is
carpeted in blue shag with walls
of cherry. A comfortable easy
chair upholstered in hand
worked crewel was once the
possessibn of Mr. Philpott’s
father, and a handcarved
camphor wood silver chest
purchased by the owners in
Hawaii doubles as a coffee
table.
There is much more to be
seen in the Philpott’s home.
Every room is a sort of
showcase for Burlington House,
and rightfully so, since Mr.
Philpott is an executive with the
United Division of Burlington.

The title was given to

special experimental closed
circuit radio station, “WBSN-
THE SPIRIT OF BISON DAY”
was set up for that day only.
Jonathan served as the sports
director for the station along
with being the early morning
disc jockey from seven until ten
that morning. He woke up the
DLC campus in the same
manner he had woken up Davie
County this past summer on
WDSL radio. He also did the
play by play of the basketball

C h ristm a s Trees
To C ost M ore
Christmas trees will cost
more this year, thanks to in
creased expenses for
petroleum, labor and equip
ment.
Tree growers are charging
retailers from 10 to 15 percent
more this year, and the extra
cost will be passed along to the
consumer.Artificial trees are made
from petroleum products, and
the increase in world oil prices
effects the cost of the man-
riiade trees.
However, it is reported that
there will be better trees on the
market this year.
a column ot money management
and personal banking information
by Karen McCall
Wachovia Bank & Trust Co . N A
Most men who accumulalc substantial assets during their
lifetime have the foresight to draw up a will with the help
o f their lawyer. Yet too often, their wives fail to make a
will - perhaps because they think they do not have enough
property to dignify it with such a document.
But even if a wile has only a small amount of jewelry, her
clothing, an automobile and some personal possessions, she,
too. should have a will. For she may suddenly find herself
with a great deal of property which she could inherit from
her husband. If she has no will, it could result in future
problems.
For example, let’s take the case o f Jolin Redl'ord. Back in
l ‘)68, John’s first wile passed away after a long illness. He
remained a widower for five years before deciding to
remarry. John had two lovely teenage daughters whom he
sent to boarding school.
Soon after his remarriage, he revised his will, leaving all of
his property to his new wife. She was very fond of her
step-dauglUcrs, and John assumed that if anything should
happen to him , his wife would take care o f them.
A short time later, John and his new wife were fatally
Injured in an automobile crash. He died instantly; his wife a
few days later.
Tlirougli the terms o f his will, all of his property, his
stocks, bonds, real estate, the family home, automobiles -
everything he had accumulated in his lifetime - went to his
wife. But she had no will. And upon her death, the
combined property went to the courts for distribution.
By the laws of the state, the entire estate was given to the
relatives of the wife. The husband’s daughters received
nothing, because they were not related to the wife by
blood.
Now this may seem to be a cruelly unfair distribution of
an estate. It could have been avoided if the wife had made a
will, designed to protect her step-daugliters.
Tliese are contingencies which should be thoroughly
discussed with a lawyer at the time a will is drawn up. No
one likes to anticipate a fatal accident or a terminal illness
- or even to discuss it hypothetically.
Nevertheless, in good conscience, every husband and wife
should have the courage, the foresight and the good
judgment to consider all of the possibilities and to make
sure tliat the terms o f their joint wills or separate wills are
sufficiently clear to facilitate the transfer of their property
according to their desires and wishes.
After your wills have been drawn, be certain to keep
copies in a secure bul accessible place in your home along
with information as to where the original wills can be
found. Tlie besl place to keep the original is with the
lawyer w'hi> drew up the will or with the person or bank
you have named as executor.
If you keep the original will in a safe deposit box. there
may be a delay in getting il out. Some states seal such
boxes upon death and permit Ihem to be opened only on a
court order. It migiu be a good idea to leave a letter ol
iiibtructiiin with your lawyer or executor which tells
exactly where the original wills are located. Such a letter
nuglit also describe the location of cerlain documents that
have a bearing on youi estate, ll’s a simple precaution that
may someda> save a lot ol time and lioiible.

Are you looking for an
in e x p e n s iv e , n a tu r a lly
beautiful, and useful Christmas
decoration for your yard this
year? The “Christmas Tree for
the Birds" featured in the lobby
of the State Museum of Natural
History of the North Carolina
Department of Agriculture now
through the end of December
may be just the inspiration you
need.
The tree was prepared by the
staff of the M useum ’s
Education Section from items
available in the grocery store.
Garlands of popcorn and
cranberries, pine cones dipped
in hot fat and foiled in birdseed,
stale doughnuts tied to bran
ches, and suet balls hung in
mesh fruit bags are functional
decorations on the tree. Peanut
butter on pine cones and sliced
fruit in small mesh bags also
can be added.
If you have more time to
spend preparing your tree,
collect old birds’ nests from
your yard or the woods. Prop
them in the branches of the tree
with some small artificial birds
from the florist or dime store. If
you want to light the tree, use a
floodlight instead of strings of
colored lights.
Always scatter a mixture of
seed on the ground around your
tree. The cardinals will
especially like the sunflower
seeds. Some birds,such as the
rufous-sided tow hee and the
white-throated sparrow, like to
scratch for their food and
probably will not fly up into the
tree to eat.
The seed mixture around the
tree should include some hemp,
millet, and less expensive
cracked corn as well as sun
flower seeds. An ear or two of
corn at the base of the tree will
attract squirrels.
The birds will appreciate, too,
a shallow pan of water kept free
of ice. The sides of the pan
should be sloping, and it should
be no more than three inches
deep. Add small rocks if
necessary to make the pan
shallower.
The tree used by the Museum
is an eight-foot tall red cedar.
Fir or white pine trees or even
an artificial tree could be used.
The thicker the foliage the more
cover it will provide for the
birds.
The Museum of Natural
History is open Monday through
Saturday from 9 until 5 and on
Sunday afternoons from 2 until
5. It will be closed on Christmas
Day and New Year’s Day. The
museum is located at 101
Halifax Street in the North
Carolina Department of
Agriculture Building, There is
no admission charge.
If you cannot come to the
Museum to see the special
Christmas tree, you can write to

mixing should be done by hand.
Shape the food into three-inch
balls.
Place the balls in the
refrigerator or freezer for a few
ininutes to harden.
Put the balls into small mesh
bags (the kind used in
packaging lemons, grapefruit,
etc.). Tie the tops of the bags,
leaving enough string to tie onto
a small tree branch.
You can also add small seeds
to the fat-cornmeal mixture.
The seed eaters like these balls
without seeds, how’ever and
mockingbirds, who are not
interested in seeds anyway,
love them.

riassificatioii of
.Nonquota Toliacco
There has been a recent
change in the law relating to the
production of Maryland and
other kinds of nonquota tobacco
in areas where quota kinds are
traditionally produced.
Beginning with the 1975 crop,
any nonquota kind of tobacco
that is produced in an area
where a quota kind of tobacco is
traditionally produced will be
subject to the production and
marketing controls of the quota
kind of the nonquota tobacco
possesses any of the
disliiiguishable characteristics
of the quota tobacco.
Classification standards of the
quota tobacco will be used by
tobacco inspectors of the
Agricultural Marketing Service
lAMSi in making the deter
mination as to whether the
nonquota tobacco possesses any
of the distinguishable
characteristics of the quota
tobacco traditionally produced
in the area.
The change in the law means,
for example, that Maryland and
other nonquota kinds likely will
Ih> treated as hurley tobacco if
produced in a hurley tobacco
area. Maryland tobacco
produced in a flue-cured area
under the same harvesting and
curing methods as flue-cured
tobacco likely will be treated as
lliH‘H-i;ied tobacco This could
result in marketing penalties
when the tobacco is sold

North Carolina Commissioner
of Agriculture James A.
Ctraliam was one of eight
honored here tonight with the
1974 National -1-H Alumni
Award.
Commissioner Graham is the
second North Carolinian to
receive the award since its
inccpliuii 23 years ago. It is
considered to be the highest
national 4-H honor that can be
bestowed upon their Alumni.
-The award was presented at
the 5;)rd National 4-H Club
Congress in session here since
Saturday at the Conrad Hilton
Hotel. More than 1600 young
people are attending the
congress as state, regional and
national winners in the club's
projects and activities.
The National 4-H Alumni
Award, sponsored by the Olin
Corporation was presented to
Graham as a result of his 4-H
activities as a youth, his con
tributions to organization today
and his record of outstanding
citizenship, leadership and
public service.
Graham was a member in his
t f .
Commissioner Graham
home community of Cleveland
in Rowan County. His projects
included livestock and wildlife
conservation.
Inspiration from his 4-H
leaders influenced Graham to
pursue a career in agricultural
U.S. Honey Production Drops,
Bees Eat More, Produce Less
Even honeybees are affected
by the high price of sugar. They
can't afford to eat it either.
Bees need their own honey for
nourishment, but some
beekeepers used to cheat them
by taking part of if and sub
stituting a sugar syrup. But
with keepers now paying more
for a pound of suKar than they
get for a pound of honey, they are
leaving more honey for the
bees.
Honey-eating bees have
contributed to a decrease in
United States honey production
this year, though a rainy spring
and dry summer are the main
reasons why commercial output
dropped from about 131 million
[X)unds in 1973 to 100 million
[wunds in 1974.
Foreign imports are taking up
the slack, the National
Geographic Society reports. In
i’ecent years Mexico in par
ticular has become a major
honey exporter to the United
States.
So-called "jungle honey,” a
dark variety from the Yucatan,
is favored by health food stores
because it derives from flowers
in the jungle where supposedly
Dr. Kemp Certified By
Chesepeake Insurance Co.
Dr. Ramey R. Kemp of
Mocksville has been certified
as an insurance examiner by
the Chesapeake Life Insurance
Company of Baltimore,
Maryland. Dr. Kemp was one
of the 93 chiropractic physicians
that recently attended an in
surance seminar sponsored by
the North Carolina Chiropractic
Association in conjunction with
Chiropractic Underwriters Inc.
of Battle Creek, Michigan.
Chesapeake Life Insurance
Company is the first insurance
company to recognize, on a
National basis, the ability,
background and education of
chiropractic physicians.
Bankers National Life In
surance Company, of New
Jersey has also announced tnai
they have approved the cer
tified chiropractic examiners to
do life insurance physicals in
North Carolina.
Although most insurance
companies pay for chiropractic
treatment in their policies, they
have not used chiropractic
physicians as examiners for
insurance physicals.
In view of the education of
chiropractic physicians, this
move has been long overdue
and is another indication of the
growing acceptance of
chiropractic in primary helath
care.
Dr. Kemp graduated from
Logan Chiropractic College has
been practicing in Mocksville
for 24 years.

there is little or no pollution.
The growing interest in
natural foods has helped increase
the market for honey,
especially the dark kinds.
Buckwheat honey is rich in
minerals, giving rise to the
saying, “Dark honey for pale
people." Honey colors range
from water-white to wine-red,
flavors from bland to pungent.
It all depends on the nectar.
Without nectar, there is no
honey. A pound of honey may
hold the essence of two million
blossoms. Bees require every
bit of their renowned energy to
gather it. Even in regions
where flowers abound, a bee
colony may need 37,000 trips
and a combined flight mileage
of 50,000 miles to produce one
pound of honey.
The flower nectar, mixed with
enzymes within a bee's body,
breaks down into dextrose and
levulose, both simple sugars.
This thin, partly ripened honey
is stored in open cells in the bee
hive, and the bees fan their
wings in front of them to
evaporate excess water.
There are as many varieties
of honey as there are nectars.
Some specialty stores stock up
to 350 kinds.
Gourmets relish the spicy
honey derived from thyme
growing on the slopes of Mount
Hymettus in Greece;
traditionally, it was the original
food of the gods. American
experts believe that honey from
the wild thyme of the Catskills
is just as good.
The famed heather honey of a
jar turned upside down. If the
jar is shaken, however, the
honey will pour easily. The
phenomenon has a name-
thixotropy-and is common to
certain jellylike substances.
Sweet clover is the greatest
single source of honey produced
in the United States, but dozens
of regional honeys are made
too. Beekeepers in the moun
tains of West Virginia swear by
sourwood honey. Delicately
flavored orange-blossom honey
commands a premium price in
California, and cranberry
honey is popular in
Massachusetts.
Honey also is made from
alfalfa, vetch, cotton, wild
raspberry, fireweed, milkweed,
goldenrod, sage, mesquite,
tupelo, basswood, palmetto,
persimmon, honey locust, and
even the flowers of onions and
lima beans.
VA Hews
I'm eligible for a GI loan, and
wonder if the Veterans
Administration will guarantee a
loan for both a mobile home and
land to place it on?
Yes. The maximum
guaranty for mobile homes
is 110,000. But if the loan
includes site acquisition, it
can be increased to tI7,500.
I have an "R S " National
Service Life Insurance policy as
a result of service during the
Korean Conflict. Does the
Veterans Administration pay
dividends on this policy?
Not yet. However,
starting Jan. I, 1975, the
agency will pay dividends
on both "R S" and "W " •
prefixed policies, as
authorized under PL 93-2S9
(May 1974).
I was discharged from
military service June 15, 1966.
How long do I have to enter on-
job training?
Veterans discharged since
Jan. 31 1955, now have lU
years from date of last
separation or until Aug. 30,
1977, whichever is later, to
complete flight, farm
cooperative or on-job
training.
If I'm hospitalized for my
service-connected disability,
w ill the V e te ra n s Administration uicrease my
compensation?
Yes. If you're hospitalized
21 days or more, your
disability rating will be
increased to luu percent,
t'onipensation at the
increased rale will continue
until you're discharged
from the hospital.
education at North Carolina
Slate University where he
graduated in 1942. He taught
vocational agriculture for four
years and moved on to establish
the Upper Mountain Research
Farm at Laurel Springs.
After six years, Jim Graham
went to Winston-Salem where
he managed the Winston-Salem
Fair and the Dixie Classic
Livestock Show. He was
secretary of the N.C. Hereford
Breeders Association and in
1955 became manager of the
Raleigh Farmers Market.
Upon the death of the Com
missioner of Agriculture L. Y.
Ballentine, in 1964, Graham was
appointed to complete his term.
He was elected to a four year
term in November of 1964 and
was re-elected in 1968 and 1972.
“The recognition here tonight
is a real highlight for me",
Graham said in accepting the
award. “I would say that 4-H
has had a major influence on
iny life.
"I am a belter husband, a
better father and a better man
from the influence of 4-H during
my youth. In fact, I would not
be Commissioner of Agriculture
today without it."
Graham also cited WORK as
the byword of 4-H and a real key
to its success. He praised his
leaders and singled out long
time state club leader L. R.
Harrill for his part in
developing the 4-H program in
the slate.
"It is a thrill for me to Ije one
of these boys singled out here
tonight," Graham concluded,
"and I sincerely appreciate this
recognition."

gathers on Thanksgiving day

Schulte, have much to be thank
ful for, they are both able to get
around and have a garden and
flowers and maintain their own
home.
Here we had a beautiful
display on Sunday of
snowflakes, just enough to
enjoy watching fall, all that
some of us wanted, of course not
enough to give the school
children a holiday, the sons of
Mr, and Mrs. Ronnie Hendrix
did manage a tiny snowman
though.
Reports on Sunday that Mrs.
John Hartman and daughter of
Farmington who were seriously
injured a week ago in an ac

Hartman is the daughter of Mr.

THE PROCLAMATION OF CHRIST
Christtnnity did not begin as «i new sociiil gospel, nor has it become one
today to those who are true believers.
The preaching of the Word led to the proclamntion of Christ, and this provided an undeniable holiness of life on the part of those who received the Gospel. This was, and is. the secret of the true Gospel of Christ,
Look for it in any age of man, tn any
City of the world, in case of any crisis
that may befall Christian men-
- They will be true to the Word , . . God's Word ... the Bible
- They will exhibit holiness of mind, body and life
—They will show forth the power and
presence of the Holy Spirit in all
their contacts with their fellow men.
Any other gospel is spurious and is to be spurned.

Letter To Editor
Dear Editor:
This letter in general is to the
people of Mocksville and Davie
County.
I, George Ward Rogers, came
here from Buffalo, N. Y. after
having been in business there
five years. My character and
credit has always been of good
standing. I was born and raised
in Canton and Asheville, N. C.
and I am not a Yank. The
reason I wish to state this is
because of the welcome I have
received since I opened a
business in Mocksville, for
merly known as L. M.
Dwiggins Service Station. I
have met some very nice people
here, that is, what few I met,
and it was a very few. As they
say up north, I like southern
hospitality. Well, as far as I am
concerned, you people live in
another world. I have been all
over and have never met
another class of people like
Davie County has. Hospitality,
ethics, friendship . . . you don't
have. You never bothered to
slop and meet me so how can
you dislike me?
As for the past history of L. M.
Dwiggins Service Station being
open and closed, I am sure it
was not his fault. If each of us
would look at the other person’s
side of life, this world would be
just wonderful to us all.
Mr. Dwiggins and I part as
■friends. I find him to be a man
of his word and a wonderful
man. He cleaned fish for a lot of
people during the summer and
took it to them. In the winter he
killed squirrels and took to them
so as to let them know his
station was open again.
As long as gas was short, I got
the business. After 40 years Mr.
Dwiggins wished to sell gas to
his old friends, their children
and grandchildren as cheap as
possible. Any local person
wishing to go in business there
could make a good living and
get along with L. M. as he likes
to be called. If they can't it is
their fault because he treated
me like a son and I had a good
relationship with him and Boger
Oil Company.
With thanks to the customers I
had.

Mrs. IVIiller lived alone. Her husband had i)een de
ad for twelve years. There were no children. She cut her
own wood, planted the corn and even did the plowing
with a horse borrowed from a neighbor.
No matter how often Pauline and I called at her
isolated cottage on the mountain side, we always left
with more apples, eggs and tomatoes than we could
carry . . besides she often took us by the smoke house
and loaded our arms with jars of fruit and vegetables
she had canned. She treated her neighbors that way, too
One day 1 was called to the hospital — an
emergency call. Mrs. Miller was there with a badly broken
shoulder."I'm mighty glad to see you, ' she said gratefully.
"How did it happen?" I inquired.
“I was on a chair, fixing the radio. I'm not sure
what happened after that."
"Who helped you? How did you get to the
hospital?"
“Nobody found me for a night and day. I lay on
the kitchen floor flat of my back. . .1 couldn't move. My
shoulder almost killed me every time 1 tried. "
"Did you call for help?"
"Sure, Pastor, 'till I couldn't holler any more . .
.but nobody came. Must not have heard me You know the nearest house is across thecreek to Ernest's,"
"But who finally found you?"
"Little five-year-old G ary"
“How did he happen by? " 1 asked.
“Tliey have a new baby, you know, and Irene isn't
strong yet, so 1 took a pan of hoi rolls there the other
day. Gary returned the pan."
“And Gary returned the pan," I muttered, half
audibly.
“That's right," Mrs. Miller added, as she looked
up through tear-dimmed eyes and smiled.
I stood beside the hospital bed in thoughtful
silence. Then I took Mrs. Miller's hand in mine and said.
"Let us pray."
I thanked God for the pan of rolls.

John W. Thomas, Jr., in
t e r n a t i o n a lly k n o w n
manufacturing head from High
Point, has been named general
ohHirman of a $350,000 capital
development program by the
Uwharrie Council, Boy Scouts
of America.
The appointment was an
nounced today by Dr. W.
Kenneth Gobel, president of the
volunteer o rg anizatio n’s
executive board.
When questioned about his
acceptance, Thomas said, “We
have the capacity and the op
portunity to make this
generation of youth out
standing. I think we would all
agree that we must inspire
young men to adopt worthy
goals. . . if we are to build a
better society. That's what
Scouting is all about.
“Some will say our goal is
high. I'll agree, $350,000 is a lot
of money," he commented, “but
I have every confidence that
our volunteer organization will
be more than equal to the
challenge.
•‘We shouldn't lose sight
either of the fact that money
isn't our final objective," he
emphasized. “ Through a
successful campaign the
Uwharrie Council will have the
necessary facilities to assure
that every available boy within
the council area will have the
opportunity to grow through the
Scouting Program. That’s the
real object of our efforts, the
real justification of the cam
paign."
In announcing the ap
pointment, Dr. Gobel said, “The
Council is particularly pleased
to have the capable talents of a
man of John Thomas' stature.
We're confident that with his
leadership we will be able to
make even stronger the quality
Scouting Program we’ve
achieved in the Uwharrie
Council."
Thomas is an alumnus of
Virginia Polytechnic Institute,
where he earned his B.S. degree
in industrial engineering
following service in the U.S.
Navy.
He is president and a cor
porate director of Thomas Built
Buses, Inc. of High Point, with
plants located in High Point,
N.C.; Woodstock, Ontario,
Canada; Quito, Equador; and
Lima, Peru.
In addition to his many broad
based civic and professional
associations, Thomas is
chairman of the Environmental
Management Commission of
the N.C. Department of Natural
John W. Thomas
and Economic Resources.
He and his wife, the former
Tommie Leigh Munford] are
active in the Forest Hills
Presbyterian Church. Four of
their five sons, John, Mat,
Bruce, Chris, and Stuart, are
Eagle Scouts.
The recently announced “Help A Boy Go Good" cam
paign will be directed toward
major improvements and

Artificiality in Christmas lias
become quite commonplace. In
a world in wiiicli tlie yuietide
season brings thoughts of
simulated trees laden with
synthetic ornaments, it is
refreshing to know that there
are still people who take pride
in adding Uiat “ personal”
touch. Jh e la c ^ io f Macedonja-
Moravian CmirSh in Far*
mington are such people.Candle making is a tradition
that has been carried on by the
Moravians since the founding of
Bcthania, and as the first of an
annual project, approximately
thirty ladies of the church under
the direction of Rev. and Mrs.
John Kapp, are reviving this
age old tradition.
Making candles as it was>done
hundreds>of years ago is a
timely prbVess.' 'First the moldk
are strung which entails
threading a piece of heavy duty
After candles are removed from molds they are cut
loose from the rods by Flora Mae Hockaday and
Glenda Craft.
Mrs. Wilson Sparks, Jr., president of the Woman’s FeUowship, watches as the
Rev. Kapp extracts candles from a problem mold.
D A V IE C O U N T V
twine 24 inches in length
through each of the twelve holes
in the mold. This thread will
serve as the wick upon com
pletion of the candles.
Next, to guard against
leakage when the hot wax is
poured in, a strip of cloth is
folded and placedpver the top of
each mold> Two Oiin metal rods
are then laid on top of the cloth
around which the twine Is tied.
After the ends of the twine are
F o a lu r e s - H i
trimmed, the molds are ready
for the wax.
Four pounds of pure, refined
beeswax melted with one pound
of tallow is the ratio used in
forming the basis of the can
dles. The wax which costs $1.90
per pound gives not only life to
the candles, but also a lovely
honey-gold color. Less wax
could be used, but the candles
would be more likely to stick to
the mold and burn much more
rapidly.The beeswax used in these
candles had to be ordered by the
church from the midwest, due
to its scarcity in this area. The
Rev. Mr. Kapp explained that
t>efore wax was on the market
for sale, their Moravian an
cestors secured it by robbing
bee hives. The wax then had to
be melted and strained through
a very finely woven piece of
cheese cloth to remove as many
impurities as possible. This of
course could still be done today,
but it becomes a very timely
process, and the wax is not as
pure as that bought on the
market.
Once the solution is com
pletely melted the wax is
poured into the molds. The
trick however, is to fill each
Dvvombvr 5, 1974
mold as nearly full as possible
at one time. The mold, which is
filled with wax to completely
cover the top, is placed aside to
cool.
The cooling process takes
approximately eight to ten
minutes after which the candles
are removed from the mold.
This Is done by lifting the two
thin metal rods. The candles
are then clipped free of the rods,
wrapped and placed in storage
until use.
Macedonia Moravian Church
intends to use part of the six
hundred candles made for the
Love Feast held to celebrate the
birth of Christ in December. On
this occasion each person in the
church is given a candle to
symbolize the Savior given the
world, and as this has meaning
so does each part of the candle.
The beeswax is a symbol of life;
the wick is the light of the
world; and the red wrapping the
blood of Jesus that was spilled.
These candles help the
Moravians express the true
meaning of Christmas and is to
be the first of an annual'project.
They plan to keep alive a
beautiful tradition in a world
where tradition has slowly
slipped away.
Pouring hot wax into a mold are Judy Snyder and
Ann White.
Women of Macedonia ^^oravian Church carr>' out the various steps necessary
for making Moravian candles, using the same process that has been employed
for centuries. Shown are Louise Kapp, Neni Godbey, (irace Call, Katherine
Wood, Gail Walker and Libby Cope putting string's in molds.
Betty Frye, Ruth Smith and Nancy McHan observe as Glenda Craft removes
another batch of Moravian beeswax candles from the mold.

Spitz cited AAMVA concern
over winter driving problems
during the hazardous months
ahead as an example. "Despite
today's need for fuel con
servation, a great many
motorists are traveling from
jurisdictions with mild climates
into and through jurisdictions
with severe winter climates.
And winter sports enthusiasts
from virtually every part of the
country are taking winter
vacations in snow country,"
Spitz contends.
The trouble is, according to
AAMVA official, all too many
tourists from jurisdictions with
mild winters simply do not
realize the problems of driving
under snowy and icy conditions.
"F or this reason," Spitz
continued. "AAMVA has long
endorsed the winter driving
research recommendations
emanating from the research
program of the
Committee on Winter Driving
Hazards of the National Safety
Council.” These include:
1. Make sure the antifreeze
solution in your radiator and
your windshield washers can
handle below freezing weather.
2. Keep your windshield,
windows and rear-view mirrors
snow-free and clear at all times.
Replace worn, streaking wiper
blades.
3. Clear head and taillights
regularly. A barely visible film
on light lenses can decrease
lighting power by as much as 25
percent.
4. Make sure your car has
good tires with good treads. In
heavy snow areas, equip your
car with snow tires and carry a
pair of reinforced tire chains in
your trunk for use when needed.
5. Increase the distance
between you and the car ahead.
Give yourself ample room for
maneuvering or stopping if the
vehicle ahead makes an
unexpected stop or turn.
6. Pump your brakes to slow
down or stop. This technique
keeps wheels rolling and helps
maintain steering control.
7. When driving on winter-
slick roads, get the feel of the
road. Accelerate carefully or
tap your brakes while away
from traffic. See if the wheels
spin or skid. If either occurs -
reduce your speed accordingly.
8. If a skid starts, steer in the
direction of the skid. Steer left
if the rear skids left; steer right
if the rear skids right.
9. Buckle your seat belt and
shoulder harness everytime you
enter the car and be sure your
passengers buckle up as well.
10. Drive defensively-traffic
laws in other states may not be
the same as those in your home
state. When in doubt, slow down
to give yourself more time to
judge the situation.
"Every AAMVA member
official wants you back home
alive and well,” Spitz con
cluded, and the sincerity of his
comment is backed by his own
personal commitment to traffic
accident prevention. A long
time active member of the
National Safety Council, Spitz
has served as Chairman of its
Traffic Conference and was
recently elected the Council’s
Vice President for Traffic.

Andrews B uilding - Across From The J’ost U ttice
I.iewisville-CIemmons Road In C lem m ons 766-4791
It is a common practice to
poke fun at scientists who study
obscure plant and wildlife
species. Just recently. Jack
Anderson, in his syndicated
newspaper column, Washington
Merry-Go-Round, suggested
that projects designed to study
Indian whistling ducks and a
species of lizard in Yugoslavia
were a waste of taxpayers’
money.Perhaps he is right. Perhaps
not. At any rate, his attitude is
fairly prevalent.
I suppose those who are in
clined to oppose such studies
might also have been quick to
attack any propo.sal years ago
(0 study a relatively obscure
European wild plant known as
foxglove for the same reason.
Foxglove is now more widely
known as digitalis-a powerful
cardiac stimulant and diuretic.
It is probably safe to say that
many people suffering from
heart disease owe their very
lives to foxglove.
No one knows how many
countless plants and creatures
inhabiting this earth hold im
portant secrets that would
prove useful to mankind. Only
through scientific study can we
.sometimes learn these things-
or as a cynic might Dut_ it.
"hindsight is always 20-20” .
It is for this reason that a very
high priority must be placed on
the preservation of all species of
plants or animals-from the
smallest microscopic critters
iiiliabiting the oceans to the
largest roaming the land.
Species considered rare or
endangered are particularly
Important
Once a species is lost forever,
we may never learn what
secrets it might have carried
into extinction. In other words,
everything is worth saving for
its potential scientific value, if
nothing else.
Who knows hut what some
obscure worm or lizard might
not hold the key to a cure for
some dread disease-a cure we
may not discover for many,
many years
In a recent issue of the Marine
Technology Society Journal it
was esiimateil that "fewer than
one percent ol marine animals
have been examined for
biologically active compounds
that may be useful as drugs”.
The potential is virtually
unlimited, but only if we do not
foolishlessly wipe out our
laboratory.
The Journal reports that a
powerful toxin, isolated from a
segmented worm with a long
Latin name, has been developed
and is now being marketed as
an insecticide for use in con
trolling rice borers in Japan.
This is a fairly typical example,
of which there are many.
Recently, the National
Geographic magazine reported
the discovery of a species of sole
(a flatfish sim ilar to our
flounder) which is the only
known fish capable of producing
a toxin which repels shark
attack.
Mankind has greatly
benefited over the years from
the scientific study of the
world's creatures. The study of
the opossum has benefited
organ transplants. Horse blood
is iinportant in the production of
tetanus serum. The study of
bats has helped us learn about
sonar. Examples are legion.
An understanding of this
helps explain why scientists and
environmentalists are quick to
fight against Ihc loss of a single
species-no matter how obscure
and useless it might appear.
Biologists have long argued
that wildlife has benefits
beyond mere aesthetics and
recreation. "M an," they say,
"cannot live in a world that
cannot support wildlife. An
environment too poisonous for
wildlife is liicewise too
poisonous for man. and
therefore the health of wildlife
populations is an important
barometer of the relative health
of the environment."
But at least equally important
IS the fact that many obscure
creatures undoubtedly hold the
keys to important medical and
s c ie n tific d is c o v e rie s -
discoveries that may come
decades into the future.
River mussels, salamanders,
woodpeckers, salmon, worms,
eagles and all the rest that
swim. walk, fly, or simply crawl
thniugli the muck may hold the
secret Who know s which ones'*
Wlio can afford to guess'? Who
among us has 20-20 foresight''

Perhsps the most important
factors which limit wildlKe
(K)pulations are food and cover.
Many modern-day agricultural
methods are resulting in a
drastic reduction of natural
wildlife food and cover. "Clean
farming" methods and habitat
destruction may be dealing out
wildlife populations a more
.serious blow than many of us
realize.
Realizing the need for sup
plemental plantings of wildlife
food and cover, the North
Carolina W ildlife Resources
Commision is making available
to landowners and sportsmen a
variety of such planting
inaterials, free of charge, on a
first-come, first-served basis.
Planting materials available
include:
1. Annual seed mixture • for
use in small patches near cover
2. Permanent (perennial i
seed mixture - for use in
providing a permanent wildlife
food supply in "odd corners"
and other places where the
planting will not be grazed or
burned.
3. Other special planting
materials - for use in
association with providing food
and cover for particular
problem situations.
The above-mentioned plan
ting materials offer excellent
food and cover for wildlife.
Applications for these
tnaterials may be obtained by
contacting Soil Conservation
Service or Agricultural Ex
tension Service Personnel,
Lildlife Protectors, or the
District Wildlife Biologist in this
area who is Thomas D. Mon-
schein, 128 Sloop St., Elkin, N.

This biologist will also be
happy to provide on-the-ground
technical assistance with
wildlife habitat improvement
and other game-related
problems. Contact him if he can

In Search O f The American Dream X:
How Did The ‘People Of Plen^’ Get Plen^?
Kditor's Nnir: This is the lOth of 18 articles exploring
(hr Ihpinr. In Srnrch nf the American Dream. This article
iliscussrs the energy and drive that permitted America, a
new nation, to progress in an economic sense, with
accompnn.viMK problems. The writer is a Stiles professor

From the beginning observers saw America as a land
of abundance. In 1775 Benjamin Franklin pointed out that
North America was so vast that "no Man continues long
as a Laborer for others, but gets a Plantation of his own.”
Because of the opportunity on the land. Franklin
predicted that within a century, ‘‘the greatest number of
Englishmen will be on this side of the water. ”
The American population doubled every twenty years,
creating a vast agricultural nation that formed a rich
market for the world’s products. Immigrants and large
families were an economic asset in Agriculture. Provided
with a .second chance, and imbued with the Protestant
work ethic, 19th Century Americans worked hard to turn
nature's potential abundance into actual abundance for
all.Their incentive was in part explained by J. Hector St.
John de Crevecoeur in “Leters from an American
Farmer" (1782). People in America, he wrote, besides
having access to their own land, were relatively
unfettered by government, church, or other feudal
institutions. Their labor being “founded on the basis of
nature, self-interest, can it want stronger allurement?”
In ‘‘People of Plenty” (1954), the historian David
Potter declared economic abundance the single most
important factor in shaping American character and
institutions.
From abundance stemmed a fluid class structure. It
made mass education possible. It provided enough
economic surplus for distribution to the rest of the world
and gave Americans a sense of mission. It created the
conditions for democracy because, property distribution
being widespread, everyone had a stake in political
society. And it created new institutions such as
advertising that transformed America into a consumer
society with a high mass standard of living. But the
important question is how did all of this come about?
In 1775 Franklin had also observed that since a man
could easily gel his own “Plantation,” “Labour will never
be cheap here.” This proved to be correct. Through much
of the 19th Century, despite immigration and family
increase, the cost of American labor was relatively high--
a factor which, some historians argue, early forced
Americans to turn to machines.
Characteristically, Americans looked for easy-to-build,
specialized machines that were not too expensive to
replace and therefore not a brake on new solutions to
unexpected problems. Where the British built imposing
steamships, Henry Shreve devised the barge-like, flat-
bottomed river boat. Where the British built gigantic
locomotives with fixed wheels, American engineers rode
on light carriages with four wheels out ahead of the
vehicle to guide it around the hairpin turns of hastily
constructed tracks. And while Americans often looked to
European technology, they also were constantly
inventing labor-saving machines and processes
themselves. Eli Whitney’s simple cotton gin transformed
the South. Cyrus McCormick’s reaper made bonanza
farming possible. And the hog butchers of Cincinnati, as
early as the 1830’s devised an efficient assembly line
process-the ancestor of Henry F o rd ’s system. The
alertness to invention and labor-saving devices speeded
up the tempo of American life.
Change, adaptability, and mobility were always
paramount.
But while free white Americans were commanding
high wages, a vast portion of American abundance was
generated by the four million black slaves who worked
the cotton and sugar cane fields of the South. These black
workers were not free, had no stake in the land, as did
Crevecoeur’s yeoman. They were chattel, to be bought or
sold at will like a horse or a wagon.
Historians have long debated whether slavery was
actually profitable. Certainly wages were nil, and life
long upkeep costs were minimal. On the eve of the Civil
War both North and South believed that cotton was indeed
“king.” Forced black labor had produced what looked
like an exceedingly affluent society in the South.
On the other hand, the slave economy fastened a
rigidity upon the South that made it a folk culture based
on a racial caste system. For a majority of Southerners
utopia consisted of standing still. Meanwhile the slave
dreamed of some jubilee day when he, too, might be as
free as the Declaration of Independence asserted he
ought to be and thus partake of the “plenty” that he had
helped produce at such incredible personal cost.
Compared to the South, northern factory towns and
cities seemed more productive and dynamic. Even before
The Devilish Cold-
Scourge Of Mankind
by
Clay Williams
The devilish cold, the scourge
of mankind since time began,
costs North Carolinians an
estimated $125 million in wages
and production each year.
The common cold sneaks up
on you like a thief in the night.
The runny (or stuffy) nose,
tickly (or sore) throat, and
perhaps a slight fever usually
signal the beginning of a disease
that is visited upon most
tarheels two to three times each
year. Collectively we whoop,
sneeze and suffer our way
through 10 to 15 million colds
annually.
TheworsI part is that medical
scientists are no closer to a cure
for the cold than they were
when its devastating effects on
individuals and populations
were first noted. About the only
tiling that has been learned is
what does Not cause them.
Contrary to popular belief,
exposure to drafts and wetness
has nothing to do with it, ac
cording to Dr. J.N . Mac-
cormack. head of the Com
municable Disease Control
Branch of the Division of Health
Services. But, even Ben
Franklin knew that. In 1773 he
wrote ■
"The cause of colds are
lolally independent of wet and
even cold”MacCormack said people
catch colds from one another.
For instance, one lusty well-
aimed sneeze from a (H-rsoii
with a fresh cold, can infect a
whole roonifull of people And if
ihe humidity is riglit. it can
infect another roonifull three

in the droplet spray generated
by a sneeze.
How does a person go about
preventing a cold? M ac
Cormack said very little can be
done other than covering
sneezes and avoiding (as much
as possible) contact with people
who have colds.
“There is no effective vaccine
against the cold and no im
mediate hope of one because the
disease can be caused by any
one of over 100 viruses. Vitamin
C has been plugged as a
preventative and treatment, but
properly conducted studies
don't bear this out," he said.
MacCormack cautioned that
the $500 million spent in the
United Stales annually on
across-the -counter cold
remedies is money wasted,
"Even worse, is money
wasted on drugs that have been
shown to be no more effective in
ti(»tiiig cold symptoms than a
sugar pill," he allowed,
"People press their physician
for a shot of penicillin, or some
other antibiotic. These drugs
should be reserved for the oc
casional bacterial com
plications of colds such as
sinusitis, middle ear infection,
or pneumonia," he stressed,
MacCormack urged people with colds to go to bed, take
aspirin and drink plenty of
fluids
"Tests have shown that colds
are infectious one day before
the onset of symptoms until five
days afler - another good
reason lor taking oneself out of

the Civil War the American industrial revolution was at
“take-off” point. New York, the financial, mercantile,
and shipping center of the country, was a symbol for
hundreds of other,booming commercial towns of the
North,
Newburyport, Mass,, studied in the 1940s by the
sociologist Lloyd Warner as “ Yankee City,” is perhaps
typical of 19th Century northeastern towns. In a recent
work, “Poverty and Progress,” the historian Stephan
Thernstrom restudied Newburyport, asking in effect
whether the laborers of that town were truly “people of
plenty,” and whether success and social mobility, the rise
from rags to riches, were really possible for them. He
found that only a small fraction of common laborers
advanced even to the status of semiskilled workers, and
their children moved only slightly, if at all, further up the
ladder of success. A mid-19th Century influx of Irish
Catholic immigrants exaggerated this condition. But,
strangely enough, the people of Newburyport never
ceas^ to believe in the American Dream. Their objective
was modest success in the form of security-a job, a small
house of one’s own, and a savings account as a hedge
against unemployment or sickness.
The workers pursued these ends often to the sacrifice of
their children’s education, and hence future chance of
success, thus carrying the pattern of stasis through
future generations. If Newburyport represents a typical
northern town, then its citizens, though they believed in
the American Dream, were hardly “people of plenty.”
They were people of “just enough.”
Other Americans refused to settle for such modest
goals, either for themselves or their society. In the first
half of the 19th Century at least 100 “utopian”
communities were established throughout the country,
each trying to embody the social principles of theorists
like Robert Owen, Charles Fourier, or Etienne Cabet.
Brook Farm was the best known of these experiments,
probably because it attracted the interest of people like
Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne.
Devoted to radical social reorganization, most of these
communities failed except insofar as tliey captured the
imagination of the people and added new content to the
American Dream.
In any economy, even one blessed by nature’s
abundance, the incentive to work must be present. At
least three such incentives loom large in 19th Century
America. The first, the propaganda of success, is most
obvious. Horatio Alger novels such as “Pluck and Luck,”
success manuals, edifying sermons, schcx)lbooks such as
“McGuffey’s Readers,” and newspapers chronicling the
exploits of the successful, all encouraged Americans to
drive for the American Dream through ceaseless toil.
And even if one read or listened in disbelief, he could not
afford to fail to piay the game, because he had a society to
live in, neighbors to judge him, fellows to emulate or
compete with-or else go under.
Going under or fear of failure provided a second and
even more powerful incentive. America was a market
economy in which a man in any walk of life could succeed
or fail. The panics of the 70s, in which the great banking
house of Jay Cooke collapsed, and the panics of the 90s
were personal experiences to many Americans, Even the
robber baron, Jay Gould, acknowledged “business is
scary.”
Still a third incentive for success was the economic and
legal philosophy of the day. The economic ideal was
Adam Smith’s laissez-faire: that government was best

the fittest believed that government meddling only
hindered the inevitable march of progress led by the
captains of industry, the true leaders of mankind. Thus
just at the point of economic take-off in the United States,
industry and its captains, not government or reformers,
controlled America,
The legal system gave power with very little
responsibility to the corporations. Declaring that
corporations were “persons," the courts struck down
attempts at regulation as violations of the 14th
Amendment to the Constitution, which stated that “no
person may be deprived. . .of property without due
process of law," Despite their blindness to the spectre of
monopolies and to large areas of the public interest,
American courts in the 19th Century pushed the
American Dream, and they may, well, at whatever cost,
have helped to produce American material abundance.
By 1900 the United States had become the leading food-
producing and manufacturing nation in the world.

As indicated in Inst week's checked Ihe oil depth and

readers have volunteered in- but found water at the depth r
formation about water wit- said, I confirmed an un-
ching. Mrs, Mildred R, Harris,
who lives near Marlon, North
Carolina, takes a common sense
approach to Ihe matter, as is
indicated by the following cx-
cerpl:
"Well, concerning the water-
witchin'. Oh that is so absurd,
(You spell it. 1 can't and 1 got no
diclionery, I gave the two 1 had
to my younguns whensi they got
hitched.) That is about like
somebody saying. ‘I made Ihe
rainbow'
"A devining rod, so called, is
no more than a green willow
sprout, cut off below and above
a prong, something like a
slingshot prong. Like a horse, cow. or elephant can sense
water, and as I have seen in
movies a horse digging in the
sand for water. The branch
must be just cut off. It thirsts
for water and if held loosely
(you've got to learn how to hold
it by <he prongs with the big
pari away from you) will,
whenever it passes over water,
bow for thirst. It won't work if
it's been cut off for days, when it
is dry, I have used one myself,
years ago, for fun. My dad BrOthef O f L O C fll showed me how.
"Another sure way to find
water is when you find reeds
growing on a mountain or a hill-
or anyplace. These small reeds
only follow a watercourse. My
daughter has a well located by
these,"
Mrs, Harris ends her letter
with instructions on how to hold
a divining rod and the need for
practice:
“Hold your willow sprout
steady and loosely in both
hands; it'll do its own diving.
Practice! Practice! In a dry
place, not in a swampy place.
Where I live there are about 18
springheads. There is water
everywhere, so I would have to
more higher to use my common
sense gift from God!"
She also enclosed water reeds
for my perusal.
Another reader, Mr. George
E, Masengill, of Bluff City,
Tennessee, is a strong believer
in witching and says his talents
run to discovering other
elements in addition to water.
He also notes that he does not
require pay for his services.
“I can locate water, gas, oil,
minerals with a forked rod. I
have been doing this for sixty
years and have not charged one
cent for this service of helping
others, I am the only one in this
area as far as I know, judging
from the numerous calls I
receive,
“I went to a lot of wells
starting to drill for oil. 1
derground river at 8500 feet
deep and they had to abandon
drilling,
"I have located wells in
Pennsylvania. Kentucky, Rose
Hill, Virginia, Tennessee. One
place they were drilling for
water in a valley, I told them it
was not there, and to drill on top
of the hill, which they did
successfully. The force of the
rod was so strong it stuck in the
ground!
“By changing the end of Ihe
rod I can adjust for water, gas,
oil, and depths. Come over and
I will show you how to localb
and check depth. Perhaps you
have this divine gift and canj
also locate water, I am very
fortunate that God gave me this
gift and 1 enjoy helping other
people less fortunate."

water witching or any other
aspect of folklore, please write:

Tra d itio n a l H u n tin g Tim e
i Thansgiving is tradational hunting tim e for many
hunters, and this year was no exception. Local sport
ing goods stores report selling over 1,200 hunting
licenses in the past week and a service station owner
on the Bringle Perry road said he had sold over 300
licenses. Most of them were stale hunting licenses
and blggam estam ps.
According to reports there are many deer In this
area but then all hunters aren't big-game hunters.
There are still a lot of good rabbit hunters who think
that searching for rabbits is the only kind of hunting
land stay after one rabbit all day if the dogs continue
the chase. They think it's great to hear a pack of
beagles hot on the trail of a cotton tail, and the bark
ing and baying is music to their ears.
Some groups of hunters around the county report
a good season for rabbits, but others report rabbits
hard to find. One group reported jumping 18 rabbits
in a few hours, while others report seeing two or
three rabbits in a day's hunt.
On Thanksgiving morning rabbits or no rabbits, it
sounded like a sm all war going on around my house.
I was almost scared to stick my head outside the
door, but that afternoon I decided to do a little field
work and also get in a little hunting. In the span of
one and one half hours, we jumped three rabbits, and
I got five perfect shots at these rabbits and five
perfect misses. However my fellow hunter missed the
same tlu'ee rabbits four times also. The dogs had
done their part by bringing the rabbits back by us,
but with oui- misses the rabbits headed straight for
the trash pile. At least, we know there are three rab
bits left in those woods.
Another hunter, Larry Brown of Route 5,
Salisbui'y, came up with an oddity when he found an
all-white wild rabbit. He said he was bird hunting
and happen to see the rabbit in a thicket. Because of
the real cold morning the rabbit didn't move and Brown w asabletopickitup.
Buck C o n te st M o vin g
Marvin Sides, of Route 12, Salisbury, and Jam es
D, Goodman, of Spencer, turned in two large bucks to
start our Big Buck Contest in the shotgun division.
Both men entered eight-point bucks.
Sides got his buck near Panther Point in the
Eastern Rowan section. He said it was hU first buck
and the largest deer he had ever killed.
Goodinan also killed his buck in the East Rowan
section and his buck weighed 175 pounds.
Donnie Brown still leads the bowhunter division

With Christmas on its way
and retail prices at an all time
high, this may be the year to
explore alternative shopping opportunities. Factory outlet stores
should be high on your list.
A factory outlet store is ex
actly what the name implies.
It is a store established by a
factory to sell off products that,
for one reason or another, have
not been wholesaled.
The sharp consumer who is
willing to invest the extra time
and effort will find some ter
rific bargains.
You can ex- g,
pect to save
from 10-50%
on such items
as shoes,
clothing, ap
pliances and
dinner and glassware,
many of these items
great gifts.
But, keep in mind you'll be
shopping under less than ideal
conditions. There will only be
the factory's br.ind to choose
from. Few outlets have alter
ation facilities, and still fewer
accept checks and credit cards.
.And the goods featured may
he 'seconds" or styles that
proved to be unpopular.
As in any bargain situation,
you must exercise good judg
ment before you buy. Inspect
the merchandise carefully for
defects. Keep in mind that gen
erally, all sales are final.

Davie Wrestlers Meet Albemarle
Here On Thursday Night
By David Hoyle
Wrestling is a relatively
young sport at Davie County
High School with Tuesday’s
match against Satesville
starting only its sixth season.
With some 33 boys turning out
for the sport, coach Steve
Boeder is confident of a bright
future for wrestling in the
county in spite of several fac
tors going against it.
“The hardest thing hurting
wrestling in Davie County is
that the kids don’t get the ex
posure in younger grades,”
Boeder said.
With both football and
basketball offered in elemen
tary school, most kidsencounter
wrestling for the first time when
they reach high school. As a
result, basketball, which
students are more familiar with
and which shares ap
proximately the same season,
gets first pick of Davie athletes.
Another problem is that
television wrestling, “which is
entirely different,” according to
Itoeder, turns some kids away
from the sport and makes some
parents distrustful of the
program.
It is one of the hardest sports
as far as conditioning, Boeder
continued, with the possible
exception of swimming. In
addition to hard practice, a
wrestler has to constantly
watch his weight to stay within
one of the 13 weight
classifications where he
wrestles best.
"You have to cat good meats
atid vegetables and stay away
from candy and all those good
sugar things,” Boeder said.
And he should know, having
wrestled in high school and as a
student at Catawba College.
"It's a lot of hard work,” said
Boeder, summing up the
negative aspects. “You have to
enjoy body contact to do well at
wrestling.”
With all that going against the
sport, you may ask is there any
possible reason why a boy
would want to go out for the
team? Boeder thinks he has a
couple of very good reasons.
Of course there arc all those
things all coaches stress, such
as building body and character.
Wrestling has an additional
advantage over some other high
"school sports in that a freshman
stands a chance of lettering. All
he needs is a little deter
mination, guts and to weigh at
least a hundred pounds, the
lowest of the weight
classifications which are
unlimited on the top end.
Thus boys who may be too
short for basketball or too slow
for track (another sport which
eats away at Boeder's wrestling
prospects) can compete with
other boys their same size,
“It’s the only sport that gives
really fair competition,”
Boeder said. A wrestler always
wrestles a person his same size,
unlike football where a 180
pound offensive tackle may go
up against a 250 pound defen
sive tackle.”
The wrestling inatch, as
played in high school, is foreign
to many people but not really
that cotnplicated.
Each inatch is six minutes
long and broken into three
periods of two minutes each. If
there is no pin during that time,
then the inan accumulating the
highest score wins the match.
There are a number of ways
to score points such as a take
down, where one wrestler gains
control of another from a
neutral position and a reversal,
where a wrestler on the bottom
switches positions and gains
control.
Points are also alloted for
escapes, where the wrestler on
bottom escapes to a neutral
position and for near falls,
which is close to but not quite a

BUYING A
safp: BICYCLE
Bob was riding his bike
without a chain guard. Suddenly
his foot caught between the
pedal and the chain and he fell,
fracturing his skull.
As Jimmy was riding his bike
downhill, (he bike’s front wheel
suddenly became loose and
twisted. He lost control and
crashed to the ground, frac
turing his knee.
Accident stories like these
cited by the Consumer Product
Safety Commission are
sobering, especially if you’re
buying a bike for your child this
holiday season. The Better
Business Bureau says that
accidents such as the above can
be prevented by buying a safe
bike and making sure it stays in
a safe condition.
BUYING THE BIKE
When you buy children’s
clothes, perhaps you buy (hem a
little large so your children can
grow into them. There's
nothing wrong with that. But a
bicycle is different; it should fit
the size your child is today. If
it’s too big, your child won’t be
able to handle it safely. To see
if a bike is not too large, have
your child sit on the sea(; he
should bo able to touch the
ground with his foot.
Don’t buy a bike that has
sharp points and edges, such as
along fenders, or with
protruding bolts that could
scrape or tear clothing. And be
sure the bike has a chain guard.
A headlight and rear reflector
are musts if your child will be
riding at night. Other
precautions for night time
riding are reflective tape on
fenders, handlebars, chain
guards and wheel sidewalls.
Many bikes are equipped with*
reflectors on the pedals.
The sting ray bikes that are so
popular - with banana seats,
small wheels and high han
dlebars - aren't as safe as
conventional bikes. They are
more likely lo tip over because
of Ihe shorter wheel base and
the high handlebars. The
banana seats invite riding

Throughout the world
America has been thought of as
r.ni- huge stornge warehouse for
farm products. Hut no more,
according to l.eo K. Williams,
('ounly Extension Chairman.
"For all practical purposes
our surpluses are gone,"
Williams said.
Stocks of all grains are below
a year ago. Supplies of all four
feed grains - corn, oats, barley
and sorghum - totaled 161
million tons on January I, 1974,
seven percent less than holdings
on the same date Ihe year
Ix’fore.
Wheat supplies in storage on
January 1 were :i:t percent less
than the year before. The 1973-
74 wheal picture is highlighted
by a record crop, near record
disappearance, record prices,
and prospects for the smallest
slocks in more than 2'i
decades.
I'Vi'd guiin supplies have
shrunk because both domestic
and foreign meal producers are
increasing their herds. Grain
for human eotisuniplion has
flowed around (he world from
America's storehouses.
"Because of poor growing
conditions in several areas of
Ihe world during the past two
years, many nations have come

their food, " Williams said.
"Rut, can America slay the old

giant for the world?"

tices, So keep this in mind if
your child asks for this type of
bike.
Maintenance
Children are hard on bikes, so
it's very important for you to
keep a close cheek on the
condition of your child's bike.
If whgels become wobbly,
align them.
Tighten or adjust any loose
parts.
Replace any parts that are
missing, damaged or worn.
Inflate tires to recommended
pressure and replace them
when they’re worn.
Oil and clean moving parts,
keeping the oil off tires.
A bike can be only as safe as
the way it’s ridden. When you
give the bike to your child, also
give some advice about safety.
Examples:
Ride near the curb in the
same direction as traffic.
Avoid riding through busy
intersections or along roads
with heavy or highspeed traffic-
-find alternative routes.
Avoid riding in wet weather,
since handbrakes are not as
efficient when wet.
Don't cross sewer grates
where wheels could get stuck.
Take precautions to prevent
loose clothing from catching in
pedals or wheels; put rub-
l)erbands around loose pants
legs.

consider to be a dangerous
bicycle or an injury related to a
bike, you can call the Product

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER S. 1974 - 7B
Irvin Riley To Show In Winston-Salem
By popular demand, (he
Allrusa Club will be presenting
at the Hillhaven Convalescent
Center in Winston-Salem, one of
North Carolina’s most
promising artists, Irvin Riley.
The ohnw will open Sunday,.
December Hth, and will run
through January 3, 1975.
Beginning at 2:00 p.m. on
Sunday, the public is cordially
invited to attend a reception to
be held in honor of Mr. Riley.
He invites all art lovers and his
many friends to come out to
view his latest works. Since his
paintings are of many varied
.subjects and mediums, he feels
he has something that would
interest the most nonchalant
viewer.
Although he is employed as a
full-time technical illustrator
with the Ingersoll-Rand
Company in Mocksville, he has
continually found time for
teaching art classes through the
Adult Education Program of
Davidson Community College,
had several children’s classes,
taught classes at the Hanes
Community Center, and has
done many demonstrations for
various groups throughout
North Caroina.In his travels to-and from
work as well as other places he
is called on to go, he continues to
see the beauty around him and
conveys on canvas these sights
so others too are able to behold
them. With these different
mediums and subjects his
repertoire continues to grow
from day to day.
Riley has shown several
limes before at the Center and
other places in Winston-Salem,
as well as numerous cities in
North Carolina and -Virginia.
Mr. Riley started teaching art
in Mocksville during the
summer of 1969, sponsored by
Rowan Technical Institute for
Nurses Aides Director, Mrs.
Alma Anderson. These classes
were held in the old Mocksville
Elementary School on the
stage. After school closed the
classes were held anywhere
possible and space was always
in doubt. Classes have been
held in the elementary school
cafeteria, the basement of Dr.
James Andrews office, the
basement of the Cherry Street
School, the Moose Lodge, and
finally in the New Brock
Center. At one time there were
as many as 120 students (6
classes) consisting of about one
half children and one half adults
with ages ranging from 6 years
on up.“ There have been many
/

rewarding accomplishments by
the students," said Mr. Riley.
"Their first group exhibit.
Expression 71, was held in the
Town Mall in Salisbury, N. C.
This was followed by several
exhibits in Mocksville and
Salisbury through the years.
Individual students have had
exhibits through out the state.
The classes have welcomed
students from Salisbury,
Winston-Salem, and Statesville
to their group. Young members
have gone on to higher
education in art. "Art on the
Square" has shown some of the
results of these students' work
and the professional judges
liave declared the art of Davie
County to be excellent," he said.
"I am leaving now as a
teacher and would like to thank
my many friends and art lovers,
biilh yoiing and old, for your
support and industry in fur
thering beauty and culture in
this community. All of this has
made my life more meaningful.
Even though I won't be
leacnmg. i wiii always be
available for critique and help.
My dream will come true if the
artists 1 have started on the
road will continue to paint and
express themselves In this
beautiful manner." said Mr.
Uiley. Mr. Riley is going to use
his time for more serious
painting on his part. As a
reminder, he leaves his classes
with his favorite quote:
•
.\t Day's Knd
Is anybody happier because
you passes his way?Docs anyone remember that
you spoke to him today?
The day is almost over, and
its lolling lime is through
Is there anyone to utter now a
kindly word of you?
Can you say tonight, in
parting with the day that's
slipping fast.That you helped a single
brother of the many that you
passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing
over what you did or said;
Docs the man whose hopes
were fading, now with courage
look ahead?
Did you waste the day, or lose
it? Was it well or sorely spent?
Did you leave a trail of kind
ness. or a scar of discontent?
As you close your eyes in
slumber, do you think that God
will say,
"You have earned one more
tomorrow by the work you did
today"?

Tips For Consumers
Safe Toys, Safer Kids
Whether you anticipate
Christmas with excitement or
with a sigh of here-we-go-again,
if you havechildren you have no
choice; It’s toy-buying time.
The kiddies probably have been
besieging you with requests for
the latest space age rocket
^launcher or magic monster
machine or windup walking
doll. And they no doubt have a
hundred more suggestions.
Naturally you won’t buy all
the things your kids ask for.
Some are too expensive and
some are inappropriate. But
when you narrow down your
list, do you also consider safety
as a factor?
More than 1,000 toys have
been taken off the market since
1970 when the Federal Child
Protection and Toy Safety Act
went into effect. But it’s im
possible for all the toys on the
market to be monitored by the
government, so you’re not
completely protected. As a
parent, you should know what to
look for and what to avoid.
Consider Child's Age
When you’re making out your
holiday shopping list, the Better
Business Bureau suggests that
you think about the size and age
of the child you’re buying for.
Consider things like the child's
dexterity, strength and
maturity. Keep in mind that a
toy that's safe for a 10-year-old
girl might be dangerous in the
hands of her younger brother,
who is less skillful.
So check warning labels on
toys, such as ‘‘Not Intended for
Children under 3 Years of Age,"
and look for age group labels.
Hidden HazardK
You obviously wouldn't buy
toys with hazards that are very
apparent, like sharp points and
rough or unfinished surfaces.
But some other hazards are not
so obvious:
-Pins, barbs, nails and tacks
sometimes are used to attach
shoes, ribbons and other
trimmings on stuffed toys and
dolls. These later can become
exposed, endangering your
child. Examine the toy for
these hazards before you buy it
and periodically after you give
it to your child.
-Brittle plastic or glass toys
can break easily, leaving sharp
edges and piet-es that can he
swallowed.
•Some toys with triggers,
gears or other parts aclivaled
t)y a spring or motor can pinch
fuigers or catch hair.
-Cheniislry sets and elec
trically operated toys,
especially those producing heat,
should be bought only for oldei',
more mature children. When
you do buy these toys, check the
wires periodically to be sure
they don’t wear through.
-Cap guns and other toys can
produce excessive noise that
can injure hearing. Look on the
label for a warning, required by
the U. S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission.
-Toy headgear that resem
bles protective helmets or hats
often gives no real protection
from real dangers. So don't
expect them to serve as
anything other than toys.
-Plastic wrappings can
smother or be swallowed by a
child. Remove them promptly
and throw them away.
-Check fabrics for non
flammable, flame-retardant or
flame-resistant labels. Also
look for washable and hygienic
material labels on stuffed toys
and dolls.
Infants
There are some additional
precautions to take when
buying toys for infants and very
young children. Toys for this
age group should:
-be too big to be swallowed'
and not have detachable parts.
These can get stuck in the
throat, ears or nostrils.
-be labeled non-toxic.
Because little children will put
anything in their mouths, avoid
painted toys.
-not have cords or strings
more than a foot in length.
Cords can trip or strangle a
child.
Toy Chests
Small children have been
injured, trapped or sometimes
smothered in toy chests. When
you buy one, the Better
Business Bureau suggests you
look for the following:
-adequate ventilation
-no automatic locking device
-lightweight lid
-hinging action not likely to
pinch or squeeze small hands
and fingers.
The U. S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission has a list of
some 1,400 banned products,
including toys. If you would like
to have a copy of the list, or if
you wish to report what you
consider to be a dangerous toy
or an injury that may be related
to a product, call the CPSC toll-
free "Consumer Hot Line";
800-638-2666. Maryland
residents should call 800-492-
2937.

1 get monthly social security
retirement payments. I’ve also
been working part time for. the
past year and paying social
security contributions. 1
thought these additional
contributions would increase
my monthly benefits now but
the Salisbury social security
office said they don’t. Can you
explain why my benefits aren’t
being increased?
Earnings records are
automatically re-examined
each year to see if a working
beneficiary is entitled to
increased benefits based on
his earnings in the previous
year. Because your monthly
benefits are based on your
average earnings, they can
only be increased in your
additional earnings are high
enough to raise the average
on which your benefit was
figured. Apparently your
earnings were not high
enough to make a difference
in your monthly payments.
Are there any circumstances
under which a man can get
monthly social security
retirement payments on his
wife's earnings record?
Social security benefits
can be paid to the husband
of a woman getting monthly
social security checks under
certain conditions. The
husband must be at least 62
and must prove he was
dependent on his wife for a
least one-half his support at
the time she became
entitled to social security
benefits.
I’m a Canadian citizen and
am planning to move back to
Canada soon. I’ve had social
security contributions deducted
from my salary for the past 15
years I've lived and-worked
here. Will 1 be able to get my
social security benefits in
Canada when I reach
retirement age?
Although there arc
restrictions on the payment
of benefits to aliens who live
in certain countries, these
restrictions don’t apply to
people who live in Canada.
If you meet the
requirements for social
security benefits, you’ll be
able to gel them even though
you're living In Canada.
I get monthly social security
retirement payments but still
do some part-time work. I know
that I can earn as much as
$2,400 for 1974 without losing
any of my benefits, but I was
wondering if that amount will
be changed at any time?
Yes, because there is a
provision in the social
security law that calls for an
automatic adjustment from
time to time based on
increases in general
earnings levels. In 1975 a
person can earn as much as
t2,320 without losing any
benefits.
My husband and I were
divorced after 24 years of
marriage. He has since
remarried, but I've remained
unmarried and expect to stay
that way. When he starts
getting social security
payments, will I have rights on
his social security earnings
record?
Since you and your
husband were married more
than years before your
divorce, you could be
eligible for monthly social
security payments on his
earnings when you're 62.
even if he has remarried.
Alsu, if he dies after w orking
lung enough under social
SCI ui ily. yuu may be able to
gel monthly survivors
benefits »lien \ou're 6U.

Disraeli
Tetinned to study them in May
I'lTI An llluslraled report will
he carried in a forthcoming
issue Ilf National Geographic.
Dr. Clark speculales that
waler conditions and the
remora -small sucker fish lhal
attach themselves to sharks and
clean Iheir hosts of parasites-
play an important part in
drawing Ihe predators to Ihe
cave.
At certain limes Ihe salt
content of the waler drops in Ihe
cave, weakening the parasites
on the sharks, and enabling the
ri'iiiora In remove them more
I,(inking a sliark in Ihe eye can
he (iiscoiicerting. especially if a
sH imim'r is only Iwo feel away
Inim its menacing teeth.
Hilt Dr Kiigenie Clark,
pnife.s.siir of zoology at Ihe
I'liivei'sily of Maryland, found
II "lieautitlil. one of Ihe greatest
experiemes I've had as a
diver,”
The iiuident occurred while
Dr Clark was studying the
mysterious "sleeping sharks”
near Isia Mu j eres, a Mexican
Island in tlie ( aribhean Sea off
tlie ^■ucalan I’enunsula. Her
work is supported by Ihe
National Geographic Society
and Ihe Me.vican govenimenl.
■'My assistant Anita George
and I followed the shark
through a limestone tunnel lo an
underwater cave." recalls Dr.
Clark. "Suddenly, the fish
turned at the mouth of the cave
and stared at us. A school of
small barjacks crowned il in a
sliiiiiniering i)lue halo.
"1 thought, isn't il strange?
Here we are at Ihe bottom of Ihe
sea. a siuirk looking at us just a
few iiuiies away, and we're
tiiitli bubbling with happiness at
tliis magnificent sight."
Tile Maryland scientist first
heard of the “sleeping sharks"
three years ago. In 1973, guided
by Carlos Garcia, the young
Mexican diver who discovered
the caves, and Ramon Bravo,
one of l\le.\ico's leading
naturalists and underwater
photographers. Dr. Clark saw
iier first immobile Car-
cliarhinus sharks.
Only their gills were pum
ping, most unusual for fishes ___
that were Ihougiit lo swim from
birth lo death. The sharks' k ik u c E W O LF ..ftl.e sea n.eets diver from ai.
ethargic slate enabled divers^ expedilion headed by Dr. E.iKcnie Clark of the touch iiiui fven lift them gently. 11.,.___r y, § • c« i i .1
Delcrmined to find oul .V '"';? ,"’ •» ''h- Na-wliether Ihe fish were in a true (■‘■'>K™l>lnc Society and Mexican C.overn-
slatc of sleep. Dr. Clark
easily Tins and the shark's
stillness eiialiles tlie remora to
clean it more efficienlly.
In effect, Ihe cave serves as a
kind of cleaning station. Dr.
Clark and her team of divers
have watched Ihe intense cleanin;’ activity of Ihe remora.
Fresh waler seeping from Ihe
sandy floor fo the cave and
lowering the salinity may cause
the accum ulalion of some
anesliietizing chemical such as
magnesium sulphate, which
could react on Ihe sharks.
The large (luantities of
dissolved oxygen discovered in
(he water, most unusual in a
dead (Mid cave, would enable
Ihe fish lo lie still for long
(K’riods of lime wilhnul .suf
fering oxygen deficiency.
Water samples colleclod by
the scienlisis are being
analyzed by chemists who hope
to unravel Ihe myslery of the
drugged sharks.
"Who knows. " says Dr.
Clark, " perhaps the animals get
some kind of high or pleasure
trom going in there. It may even
be the sharks" answer to Ihe
opium den."

12B DAVtt: COUNTY l-NTERI>KISK RECORD, THURSDAY, DECF.MBr.R 5, l‘)74
The holidays slioiilti bi' ;i limr
lo relax and onjoy family and
frlond.s. Bill il .should alsn be a
(inic lo be on Ihe lookout for fire
hazards. Don't let your holiday
.season be ruined by tragedy.
The biggest year-round
danger is eareloss smoking,
which acco\ints for more than
half of all fatal residential fires
in this country. Accordingly the
Better Business Bureau urges
that when you're entertaining
for the holidays, you provide
plenty of large, noncomtiustible
ashtrays designed to prevent
cigarettes from falling out.
Keep all matches and lighters <
out of the reach of children.
And when the parly’s over, /
check all rooms lo be certain no'
cigarettes are burning any
where.
FIKKPLACES
It may be part of your holiday
tradition to sit around a cozy
fire, but make sure you're
doing It safely. If you use
manufactured logs for the fire,
be careful with them; they can't
be handled like natural logs.
Read the instructions on the
wrapper carefully. To make
sure they ignite properly, these
logs, made of sawdust and wax,
should not be unwrapped before
use. And they shouldn’t be
added to a hot fire because they
can cause a dangerous flare-up.
Don’t start a fire with more
than one of these logs, because
the heat could become too in
tense.
Don't try lo poke at one of
these logs, because part of the
wax and sawdust could stick lo
the poker and then drop lo an
unprotected rug or floor.
When you burn natural logs,
use logs that fit the size of your
fireplace, but don't overload it.
Be careful when moving a
burning log because if il breaks
up, embers and sparks may
scatter.
Don’t burn gift wrappings or
evergreen branches in the
fireplace. They may cause the
fire to flare up faster than you
expect, and scraps of burning
paper may be carried up the
chimney and onto the roof or
yard.
No matter what type of logs
you burn, remember to open the
flue first and lo use a firescreen.
TREES AND LIGHTS
If you buy a Christmas tree,
be sure it’s fresh. Needles
should be hard to pull off. The
trunk butt should be sticky with
resin and when the trunk is
bounced on the ground, there
should not be a shower of falling
C o n s u m e r T ips
New Variety Test Data provided Leaf Growers
needles.
Krect the tree in a .sturdy,
walcr-holding stand. And keep
the sland filled with water - a
Iree needs a surprising amount
of moisture lo avoid drying out.
When the needles become
brittle and start to fall off, the
Iree becomes a serious fire
hazard and it's time to take it
down.
You might want to buy a live
Iree and then plant it outside
after Christmas. To do this
successfully, don’t keep the tree
in a heated room more than
three days, and don’t try to
plant il while the ground is
frozen. Check with a mirsery
for more advice.
Artificial trees may be less
flammable than natural trees,
but check the label to make
sure. And check the label lo see
if it’s been tested by Underwriters Laboratories.
Usually you can put lights on
plastic trees, but don’t ever pul
electric lights on metallic trees.
Metallic trees can become
charged with electricity if
strung with faulty lights, and
anyone touching il could be
electrocuted.
Check all holiday lights for
broken or cracked sockets,
frayed or bare wires and loose
connections. Don’t use indoor

—A solution of vinegar and

try dry baking soda and rub
with dampened cloth.
—For stains that iiccumulatc

paste of salt on the stains and
rinse it off.
Mrs. Millner finds that 3M
.Scotch-Britc scrubbers hold
cleaning liquids better than
brushes which lend to get soft
and lose their scrubbing power.
The .scrubbers consist of dif

styrene base with a handle for
increased scrubbing power and

white for light-duly cleaning,
blue for routine cleaning and
black for heavy-duty jobs.

to be done, followed by the
amount of time to be spent on
each task.

lights imtside and vice ver.sn,
and be sure that outside lights
are firmly anchored lo protect
them from wind damage. Don’t
string more than Ihree .sets of
lights togelhor. Turn off all
lights on trees and outside when
you go lo bed or leave the house.
COOKING
With all the extra cooking
many people do during the
holidays, more accidents can
occur. Take these precautions:
Don’t wear loose clothes while
cooking, loose sleeves cause
most fires that start at the
stove.
Keep the stove clean and free
of grease. Don’t keep a can of
grease or a box of matches on
the stove.
Use potholders. not towels, lo
move pols. Towels can drag
across burners and catch fire.
Don't hang combustibles, like
wet clothes, over the slove.
If there are small children
around, don't store cookies or
similar foods above Ihe slove.
Children may climb up aftei
them and get burned.

returns.
Kl(ie-<'iired to b a c c o
growers will hnve one
new variety on the list
from which they will
choose .seed for planting
the IH7.') crop.
Inform ation on 20 vari-
ties, including the new
M cNair 1040, is being re
leased to growers by the
C. A gricultural Experi
ment Station at North
Carolina Stale University.
The data from the official
variety tests are being
made available to grow
ers through county exten
sion agents, other agricul
tural workers and news
media.
Dr. .lohn Rice, head of
the NCSU testing pro
gram, said the inform a
tion was compiled from
tests located at five re
search farms in the stale.
Two established varieties,
Nt' '2;V2t; and NC 95, were
u.sed as a basis of com-
pa rison.
The omcial variety test
is de.signed lo evaluate
di.sease resistance and
non-disease resistance ex
perimental lines and va
rieties develojietl by public
and private agencies, Rice
said. Performance data
are collected on yield,
value per acre in dollars,
price l>er pound, grade in
dex and chemical and
agronomic characteristics
of each of the varieties.
Each variety is screen
ed by the Regional Dis
ease Committee and from
performance in disease-
problem fields for resis
tance to black shank,
Granville wilt, fusarium
wilt, brown spot, mosaic
and root knot nematodes.
Rice pointed especially
to that part of the data
that relates to disease re
sistance, commenting that
lim iting losses to the ma
jor plant ills continues to
be one of the most im por
tant production factors in
the flue-cured area. It is
estimated that disease loss
amounted to over $22 m il
lion in 197.'? with the loss
from black shank disease
estimated at over $7 m il
lion.
The data represent a
combined average for five
locations during the 1974
growing season — White-
ville, Kinston, R o c k y
Mount, Oxford and Reids-
ville. Inform ation on in
dividual locations will be
available in the Tobacco
Re.search Reiiort No. .'>3
published by NCSU in
late December. Copies
may be obtained from
the Department of Crop
Science at that time.
The yield per acre of
the 20 varieties ranged
from 2,889 pounds for
Speight G-MO to 2,.116
liounds for Va. 080. The
dollar value per acre of
all varieties tested was in
excess of Va. 080 at ?2,-
UnO. Six varieties produc
ed tobacco valueil (jver
$2,700 per acrc. All en
tries tested W(?ri' over
!f',l,'>.aO in value jier hun
dredweight. Nine varie
ties. including the stand
ard, NC 2:i2(), had values
over $97 |)cr hundred
weight.
Heginning in 197.1 each
entry was rated with a
grade index ranging from
0 to 100. C'ounty agents
and other agricultural
workers can provide farm
ers with this information.
Rice iiointed out that
with elTeclive growth reg
ulating materials being
available, farmers are
getting acceptable results
in sucker control of leaf
axil suckers. Farmers are
more c o n c e r n e d with
ground Mucker.s, and data
are available which show
that ground .sucker.s vari
ed from 0.,'! to 2.1 for the
20 entries.
In addition to the 20
varieties. 32 advanced
breeding lines of flue-
cured tobacco were tested
in 1974. These included
five new breeding lines
which were included in
the Regional Farm Test.
These w ill be screened in
December by the Regional-
Variety Evaluation Com
mittee to detei'mine if any
of them will be eligible
for seed increase in 1975
for farmer use in 1976.
Those entries meeting the
rigid standards set up by
the M inim um Standards
Committee will be an
nounced in March of 1975.
Rice said buying com
panies, including the ex
port trade, assist in eval
uating any new varieties
released for farm er use.
"This close participation
by developer and user of
new varieties is an etl'ort
lo release only acceptable
varieties for domestic and
foreign buyers."
The evaluation program
IS an attempt lo m aintain
U S. Tobacco at a (lualily
level that has made it de
sirable on the world m ar
ket. High iiualily tlue-
cured tobacco containing
acceptable Havin' and aro
ma of Ihe smoke continues
to b'good demand
w o r 1 (I w i d e. Qualified
smoking panels have eval
uated the new varieties
under code and reported
them to be acceptable for
this characteristic.
Referring to the tiata
that are being released on
the 20 varieties tested.
Rice pointed out that the
inform ation shouldn’t be
interpreted as meaning
any one variety is favored
over any other.

Lawn Problems Solved
With Renovation Plan
BY M. K. G A U nN ER
N. C. State llnivcrsity
It finally happened! I
made .suggestions to a
neighbof concerning the
renovation of his lawn
and he carried out my
plan, to the letter. Now,
his lawn is the envy of
all the neighbors in our
block, including me. It
really is pi'etty.
VVe began with a soil
test, as I have recommend
ed to you many times.
When the report was re
ceived. we found that the
organic matter was not
too bad but that lime was
needed.
The first job was to use
a tiller to perpare the
seedbed to a depth of
six inches. The soil was
then leveled with hand
rakes to smoothe out de
pressions.
After the first tilling
operation was accomplish
ed, we applied the requir
ed amounts of lime, ferti
lizer and peat moss. Then
we ran the tiller over the
area again, working the
lime, fertilizer and peat
moss into the seedbed to
a depth of about four
inches. When we finished
this operation, one neigh
bor commented, "It looks
good enough to eat.” A
little more smoothing with
hand rakes, and the seed
bed was ready to be seed
ed.
We bought the best
Kentucky 31 Fescue seed
that we could find and
used a cyclone seeder
which we rented from a
garden center. Seed was
divided and cross sown
over the area for uniform
ity. A fter the seeding was
completed, we rolled the
seeded area to firm the
seed in the seedbed. Then
we mulched, uniformly,
with grain straw. M ulch
ing with straw is impor
tant for two reasons; in
the first place, it breaks
the force of the rain drops
and prevents floating and
puddling of seed and sec
ondly, in this case, we
had a steep terrace from
the edge of the lawn to
the street. We did an es-
])ecially good job on the
terrace to prevent erosion.
And then the rains
came. The tender seed
lings soon appeared above
the straw mulch.
The neighbors inquired
about removal of the
straw mulch. This should
never be done as the straw
will settle and soon be
come incorporated with
the soil. The vacuum cre
ated by the w hirling
blades of ,vour lawn mow
er will remove some of it
and this is o.k. Never at
tempt to remove it with
a rake.
We used a bag on the
mower to catch the straw
that was pulled up along
with the grass clippings.
I worked up the ma
terials needed and, luck
ily, came out just right.
A father, mother and son
did the work, for which
they are being richly re
warded.
It's a matter o f life a n d breath! '

R A L E IG H — Even
though your favorite pro
duct keeps you fresh and
clean all day long, experts
from the federal Food
and Drug Adm inistration
(F D A ) are suggesting
that deodorant soaps and
other gerai killing prod
ucts may be bad for your
health.
For the various anti
septic agents may knock
out beneficial bacteria and
permit dangerous germs
to multiply, they add.
The FDA is expected to
propose stringent testing
requirements, lim it pro
motional claims and even
ban some of the germ
killers, observe extension
fam ily living specialists,
North Carolina State U ni
versity.
The biggest battle is
likely to occur over de
odorant soaps. Soapmak-
ers would be given one
year to prove their prod
uct is harmless. Thus far,
only a handful of products
have been proven safe
and effective.
Iodine, trusted in fam ily
first aid, may disappear
from the medicine chest.
Experts argue that it ac
tually delays the healing
of wounds because it is
toxic to underlying tissue.
The final order on anti
septic agents may not be
made until next year.
Then within six months,
drug companies would be
required to elim inate
claims such as “speeds,”
“promotes,” “aids heal
ing,” “disinfects t h e
skin,” or “controls infec
tion.” Testing for safety
and efficiency would have
to be completed w ithin
one year of the date the
proposal is issued.

Q. As a football player’s mother, I never know what type
of meal Is best (o serve before
a game. For example, is a steak
dinner good pre-game fare for my son?
A. Although meat is an im
portant source of protein for
muscle building, a big steak is
too heavy for a pre-game meal.
Emotional stress and nervous
tension may lead to the "butter
flies in the stomach" feeling'
that is aggravated by u big meal
before the game.
It is best to serve a relatively
light meal about 3 lo 4 hours
before competition. This can in
clude a small serving of lean
meal or poultry, a glass of skim
milk, a small potato or serving
of pasta and fruit or juice. In
this type of meal, the major en
ergy sources are carbohydrate
foods.
Although fat is an important
part of ever>iiay meals and a
concentrated source of energy,
it takes longer to digest fal than
carhohydrate. and any slow
down in the emptying lime of
the stomach may mean discom
fort during the game.
In planning a pre-game meal
for an athlete, 1 suggest that
you count on over half the cal
ories coming from carbohy
drates, that is, starches and sug
ars. Good sources of carbohy
drates are bread, rice, noodles,
macaroni, potatoes, jams,
syrups, plain cakes and cookies.
These digest quickly and pro
vide the athlete with an energy
source for the game.
For additional information on
the role of carbohydrates in the
foods we eai, you may want to
send for the leaflet "Fating For
Good N utrition W ith Karo
Corn Syrup," available free
from Dept. ON, P.O. Box 307,

I
II ... by Hal Griffin „
Did you know lhal doctor bills
for Oclobor, November, and
ni't'cnilior may in some cases
Social Security
counl toward the $60 annual
deduct ilile for both 1974 and 1975
under llu- "carry over"
provision of Medicare medical
insurance'.’ Medicare medical
insuraTice doesn't pay for the
first $n(l in covered medical
expenses in a calendar year,
however, people who haven’t
had covered expenses over $60
before October should be sure to
send in all the bills for covered
services they receive in Oc
tober, November, or December,
Any expenses you have during
the last H months of the year
that can be counted toward your
deductible for that year can also
be counted toward the deduc
tible for the next year. The
carry over rule helps people
who might otherwise have to
pay the $fiO deductible twice in a
short period of time-at the end
of one year and at the beginning
of the next year.
Bills for covered medical
.services should be attached to a
fillcd-out Request for Medicare
Payment form and sent to The
Prudential Insurance Co. of
American, Medicare "B "
Division, P. 0. Box 1482, High
Point, NC 27261. Request for
Medicare Payment forms are
available at any social security
office and at many doctors’
offices.
Medicare medical insurance
helps pay for the doctor bills
and many other medical ex
penses ol people 65 and over, of
disabled people who have been
entitled to social security
disability benefits for at least 24
consecutive months, and of
many people with chronic
kidney disease. The medical
insurance is the voluntary part
of Medicare, funded by in
dividual premiums and Federal
general revenues. Medicare is
administered by the Social
Security Administration, an
agency of the U. S. Department
of Health, Education, and
Welfare. The Salisbury social
security office is at 105 Corriher
Avenue, Salisbury, N. C. 28144.
The telephone number is 634- 2868
The business I work for gives
cash awards to employees for
suggestions on how to cut down
on expenses. I recently won a
prize of $500 for my suggestion.
However, my boss didn’t take
anything out of the $500 for
social security. Isn’t he
supposed to include the $500 as
part of my earnings?
Social security
contributions should be
made on ail prizes, awards,
or bonuses paid by an
expioyer to his workers. It
may have been an
oversight, and you should
call your boss's attention to
it.
For over 25 years, I have
worked as a registered nurse
and supported my invalid
husband. Can I claim him as my
dependent for social security
purposes when I retire? He has
no other income.
Yes, you can. If you have
furnished at least one-haif of
your husband's support in
the 12-nuinlh period before
you retire, you can claim
him as your dependent for
social security payments. Of
course, he must be at least
age 62. If he is under 62, a
Certificate of Support can be
filed which will qualify him
when he reaches retirement
age.
My mother, who died two
months ago, had never worked
under social security. However,
she had been getting monthly
social security payments on my
father’s earnings record. Can
my father get a lump-sum death
benefit?
No. /\ lump-sum death
benefit is payable only if the
deceased person worked
long enough in a job covered
by social security. Since
your mother had never
worked under social
security, your father is not
entitled to receive a lump
sum death payment.
My earnings under social
security have been very low.
Can I make additional
payments to be credited to my
earnings record so that when 1
retire I can get higher benefits?
.\o, you cannot. However,
if y<iu keep working and
voiir eariuufis increase, it
will raise vour average
earnint;s on which social
security l>enefils are based.
.\nd your 5 lowest earning
years will not be used in
figurin)’ your average.
1 have been divorced for 10
years, and recently heard that
my ex-husband is now drawing
social security benefits. Can 1
gel payments on his record
since I have not remarried?
You may get payments if
you meet the following test:
You must be at least 62
years old, and have lieen
married to him at leasi 2U
years. Of course, he must be
actually receiving benefits
before you can qualify.
I recently visited my son who
lives in another State and while
there I had to be treated by a
doclor Since I’m covered by
Medicare I asked the doctor to
send in llie claim IjuI lie refused
Should I send my medical
Insurance claim to the State
where I was visiting or to the
State where I live?
You should send your
claim to the carrier who
handles medical claims in
the State where you
received medical services.
You'll find the carriers
listed in the back of Your
Medicare Handbook. If you
don’t have a copy, you can
get one at the Salisbury
Social .Security Office.
What advantage is it for a
working woman to have her own
social security record? Doesn't
she get one-half of her
husband’s benefit whether she
works or not? Since both pay the
tax, why can’t she get both?
There arc several
advantage for a working
woman who is insured on
her own work. Not only is
she entitled to retirement
benefits at 62, but if she
becomes disabled, she may
get benefits before then. If
she dies, and has children
who arc eligible, they can be
paid benefits regardless of
the income of the father. If
she is older than her
husband, her benefits can
begin even though he
continues working. When he
retires, she is always paid
her own benefit, and an
additional amount as a wife,
if the wife's share exceeds
her own. As you can see,
there are several
advantages under social
security tor the working
woman. The whole area is
currently under study, and
any changes will be
incorporated in future law.
I am a widow receiving
monthly social security
payments from my late
husband. Would remarriage
stop my check? I've heard
sometimes the checks are
stopped, sometimes continued.
What are the rules?
The answer depends on
your age at the time you
remarry, and whether you
marry a social security
beneficiary or not. If you
remarry before age 60, your
checks may be stopped,
unless you marry another
social security beneficiary.
If you’re over age 60, your
checks would continue but
the amount would change to
a wife’s benefit rate instead
of a widow's.
I’ve just reached 65 and I
think I may be eligible for
supplemental security income.
I know I’m supposed to go to the
Salisbury social security office
to file my application but I'd
like to know what papers I’ll
need to take with me.
When you apply for
supplem ental security
imcome payments, you
should have with you some
proof of your age, your
social security card and
information about your
pension and any other
source of income you may
have. Y'ou'li also need to
provide information about
such things as bank
accounts, insurance policies
and real estate you own. If
you don't have all the
necessary information, but
think you're eligible for
supplem ental security
income, you should apply
anyway. The people at the
social security office may be
able to suggest other
documents or help you get
the proof you need. The
Salisbury office is open from
!):U0 a.m. until 4::iO p.m.
Monday through Friday.
I know there are certain
people under 65 who can get
Medicare coverage. Can you
tell me what the requirements
are?
Heople under (i.5 who have
been entitled to niontlily
social security disability
payments for 24 months or
more can get Medicare
protection. Their Medicare
coverage remains in effect
as lung as they keep getting
social security disability
checks. Also, people who've
worked long enough under
social security and have a
chronic kidney disease can
get Medicare to help pay the
cost of kidney transplants or
dialysis and other health care costs. Husband or
wives, and dependent
children of these workers
can also get Medicare
protection if they have a
chronic kidnev disease.
It’s a matter oj life and breath!

Wildlife Afield
( j iv e m o r e to
( J i r is t in a s S e a ls
We didn’t talk about it much,
but the thought was with us all
the way down the river. “Are
we seeing this for the last
time ”
Mike (5addis and 1 had
launched his 12 foot jon-boat at
a bridge over the Neuse River
north of Raleigh. At six o’clock
in the morning in November, it
is still dark. Silently, we drifted
down the mist-shrounded river
under grotesque tree trunks and
limbs that hung over the water.
Overhead were countless stars
and only the whine of distant
truck tires pierced the dawn.
"W e’re okay," whispered
Mike as it began to get light.
“There's no wind and the
current is just right."
“We re okay. " wispered Mike
as it begun togel light. “There's
no wind and the current is just
right."
We drifted and watched the
trees, but mostly we listened.
You hear far more squirrels
than you see when you’re
floating a river. You can hear
them fussing or running in the
leaves along the banks.
Sometimes, when the wind is
very still, you can hear the
scrabbling of their claws as
they run down a tree.
Off to the right, a squirrel
barked several times.
“You see him.I asked.
“No, not yet."
Suddenly, the squirrel was
crashing through the treetops,
leaping from limb to limb until
Mike got him with a fine shot. It
was not the only good shot Mike
made during out float, but I'm
afraid I didn’t contribute many
ingredients to the squirrel stew.
Against Mike's advice, 1
carried a .22 rifle with iron
sights, and the experience has
taught me that a rifle is not the
best way to collect a running
squirrel from a moving boat.
That’s my excuse anyway. Just
don't ask me how many shots at
sitting squirrels 1 missed while
standing on the bank.
By 9:30, the wind rose and the
squirrels stopped feeding. At
least, those that may have been
feeding were impossible to hear
and very difficult to spot in the
t)lowing leaves.
During the midday lull, I tried
an ultra-light spinning rod at
.several likely looking .spots and
was pleasantly surprised to find
the fishing good. There are
robin, chain pickerel, and bass
in the Neu.se.
We paused for lunch, then
linisliecl the afternoon slowly
diifling down the river looking
lor squirrels and making an
occasional cast with the spin
ning rod. Our timing was nearly
IH-rfect. We padled the last 100
yards in tiie gathering dusk,
ioaded the boat back into
Mike's truck and headed home.
This kind of sport is available
across North Carolina on many
rivers, but prime areas seem to
Ih‘ getting more and more
■scarce.
Floating the Neuse is a
particularly bittersweet ex-
(K'rience because the stretch we
covered will soon be under
water if the huge Falls Of Neuse
Reservoir is completed as
currently planned Beaverdam
Creek, a tributary of the Neuse
and equally handsiime, will also
l)f under water soon. The loss of
Ik)I1i areas seems more or less

The Falls Of Neuse project has
been a controversial one in
volving some 43,000 acres. Some
critics have said the area does
not need such a large water
supply. They have argued that a
much smaller lake would also
suffice for recreation and flood
control, it has been pointed out
that the dilution of pollution-
another reason cited for the
project-may not even be legal
by the time the dam is com
pleted. Costs are also running
much higher than orginally
planned. People are losing their
land.
There has been much dispute,
but this much is fairly certain.
The wildlife will be forced out,
and will die because it cannot
survive in adjacent areas where
wildlife populations are already
stable. And lots of people who
will never see this stretch of the
beautiful Neuse may not know
what they have lost. Perhaps
they are the lucky ones.
YOUNG BONES
You needn’t worry if the
the meat around the bones
of some chickens looks
reddish brown— even after
cooking. It’s safe to eat.
Broiler-fryers tend to
show this effect because
they’re marketed young,
at six to eight weeks.
Their bone marrow has
not fully hardened, and
the red blood cells seep
into the surrounding meat,
causing a deep red or
brown color, explains Mrs.
Rachel Kinlaw, extension
food specialist, North Car
olina State University.

Success is little more than a
cliemical compound of man

Any shopper who can get
through the grocery store these
days before the prices go up
deserves a track medal.
An encouraging note to the
fleet-footed shopper — the exercise is good, and just might
help keep the weight down.
There’s a new game being
played at grocery stores —
"Which is quicker - the hand or
the stamper?" The point is to
get the product off the shelf
before the price goes up. The
"stampers" are placed at strategic points throughout the
store - poised and ready. Should
he miss the product and stamp a
hand, this hand is either placed
in a pocket or hidden behind the
back at the check-out. Safely out of the store, the "near-
misses" Q{in be tallied with
some small satisfaction.
Anyone wearing dark gloves is
automatically disqualified.
Experienced shoppers are
wise to this hoax — over the
intercom one hears - at a certain section of the store a
particuliar item will be offered
at a greatly reduced price to the first twenty shoppers to reach
that area! The chances of being-, one of the twenty are about onC'
in a hundred, and as the crowd-'
moves in that direction, th i
“stampers" spring Into action; elsewhere.
Protesting the 39 cent
stamping of my son’s hand, the-
stamper obligingly changed it
to 98 cents the next time he wenV>
to the store for me. Oh, well - a'
hand is worth more than 391 cents.
The stampers are only doing'
their job, and their employers:
can be proud of jobs well done —
but putting obstacles, such as!'
boxes, in the isles is “dirty - pool". It doesn't bother me';
much, though. After all these;'
years of having my brood and '
their friends underfoot, I’m:
used to going over, under, '
around, and through - and some ;
days my bill is as much as 4; cents less than the shoppw'
behind me! ^

Dunn Elected Chairman
Of Tri-County Mental Health
Charles Dunn of Mocksville has been
elected chairman of the Tri-County Mental
Health board of driectors for the next two
years. The election took place at a
meeting held December 4(h in Salisbury.
Joe Blake of Salisbury was re-elected
vice president from Rowan County for a
two-year term and the Rev. Don Glover of
Iredell will serve as vice president from
that county.
Dunn, the new chairman, is an officer
with the Mocksville Savings and Loan
Association
Last week’s meeting was held at the
Community Building so the board could
meet the staff, which has grown too large
for the conference room at clinic
headquarters - and the meeting was
something of a sentimental journey for a
few persons who started with the clinic
shortly after it opened In the community
building 15 years ago.
John Whitfield, chief of social services,
called attention to the fact that the first
office of Ihe clinic had been located in an
old auditorium on the second floor of the
community building, long before its
renovation, and that for many years five
persons had comprised the staff with of
fices being added with new partitions in
the old auditorium.
The staff now includes 43 persons
working out of offices in Salisbury,
Mocksville, Statesville, and Mooresville.
Most of them attended last night and were
Introduced to the board.
The size of the staff - and the desire of
Ihe board to have il aimed at service
rather than administration - came under
close scrutiny during an executive session
at the close of the meeting when ad
ministrator Larry Parrish asked for ap
proval of a half-time secretary for himself.
The board gave approval, but two
members, Charlie Walters and Gil Davis,
voted no.
Parrish explained that a half-time
secretary Is to be employed with funds
from the special grant for a group home
for emotionally disturbed girls and he

How marriage-minded arc residents of
Davie County? Compared with people In
iithor parts of the country, what propor
tion (il the local population is single?
In recent years, more and more men and
women have been shying away from
marriage, preferring their "single
blessedni’.ss."
In some Instances II is to pursue a career
unencumbered wilh responisbilKles and,
In others, because the right partner has not
materialized. In still others, il Is because
they prefer Informal relationships.
In Davie County, according to the latest
figures from Ihe Deparlmenl of Com
merce. .some 28.B percent of the male
population and :12.0 percent of the female
over Ihe age of 14 arc not married. The
a\'or,nge is :tO 4 porriMit,
This Is siinu'wluil Ip.ss than is nuist parts
of llie United Stales, where 36.5 percent
retain tliolr single status. In Ihe Stale of
North Carolina il is ;i.'i.2 percent.
Some of them, of course, arc too young
or loo old lo be Interested In marriage at
this stage.
For the bcncfll of the others, in Davie
County and elscwhcri', some comments
from the American Mcdlcal Association
arc of Interest
II notes (hat “If you arc single and
scouting for a mate you can marry for
love, lor money, for convenience or for
some combination of these.
"It money Is part of your motive," It
goes on. "we offer our wishes of good
fortune and some Federal figures on more
than one million ol the wealthiest un
married Americans."
Citing dala obtained from Ihe Internal
Revenue Service, It stales that this
number Includes some .347.000 men and
86K.000 women who are single, widowed,
divorced or legally separated and whose
net worth is al least $100,000. Some of
them. In fact, are worth millions. Their
names and addresses arc not being
released, however, by the IRS,
II Is possible, adds the AMA, that
marrying Into money may actually be
good for one’s health. "There is much
cvldcncc to support the view that Ihe rich
live longer”
It concludes with the advice that, if all
else fails, consider marrying for love
rather than for moncv.

Moclisville Christmas Parade All-Wet!
By David Hoyle
For the second year in a row, the skies
opened up on The Annual Mocksville
Christmas Parade but a large percentage
of the 91 scheduled units braved the icy
winds and rain.
By Ihe lime the parade wound its way
from the B. C. Brock Community Building,
up Main Street and back down Salisbury
Street to Rich Park, many of the signs and
most of the beauty queens and other
assorted riders were soaked beyond
recognition.
By standing near the start of the route,
the judges were able to pick winners in five
of the catagories of floats, many of which
were riderless by parade's end due to the
rain.
Holly Farms took top honors with the
“Best All Around" and “Most Original"
float. The Davie Academy 4-H float was
also a double winner, pulling down “Best 4-
H Club Float" and "Most Religious"
honors. Ingersoll-Rand won in the “Best
Commercial Float" category.
The parade, sponsored by the
Mocksvllle-Davie Chamber of Commerce
and the Mocksville Jaycees, began in
pouring rain at one o'clock sharp and the
rains poured throughout the hour-long
event.
The honor guard, composed of local
National Guardsmen, led Ihe way followed
by a variety of beauty queens, community
leaders, floats, clubs, bands and a
conglomerate of wet horses and riders.
The bands, which included North Iredell,
and Davie County, were safe from Ihe cold

Susan Lynn Griffin, reigning Miss North Carolina, was one of many entrants in the Annual Mocksville Christmas Parade to brave the icy rain
and wave at the crowd that turned out in spite of the rainy weather.
In Davie County District Court-
Most Traffic Violation Charges May Be
Handled Through Magistrate Office
WomeTqw/j
Court Dockcts are packed throughout
the slate and Davie Counly is no exception.
A person aware of the Ins and outs of the
court s>'stcm, however, can save the judge
and himself a lot of lime and trouble.
One method to accomplish this Is to
make use of the magistrate's office,
especially In traffic violations, where the
offender plans to plead guilty as charged.
If Ihe person cited pleads guilty in
District Court, then he must appear before
the judge al Ihe lime specified by the
court, often losing a day's pay.On certain charges, Ihe person can go
before a magislrale instead who is
available 24 hours a day lo waive his right
lo a Irlal and pay his fine.
In an average monlh, a magislrale In
Davie County will process around 130
mailers Involving paper work, about half
of which are waivers. Out of the lolal
number ol persons that are cited to appear
In District Court, around 50 |)er cent can be
paid off belore a magislrale
Of course a person who feels he is In
nocent of the charges has a right to appear
Ix'fore Ihe judge and be cleared or possibly
fined more than what Is set for the
niagistrali', according to Ihe discretion of
Ihe judge
II hi' wishes lo waive his trial, he may
prepay a standard line and costs ol court
and bring his ciladon plus Ihe amount of
the fine and costs lo the magistrate's of
fice.
The fine and costs of local violalions
may also be made by mailing them to Ihe
Magistrate's office in Ihe courthouse In
Mocksville. Mail payment, however, must
lie made by cerllfled check or money order
and made payable lo "Clerk of Superior
Court,"
Per.sons wishing to waive their trial
must have the amount due Into the hands
of Ihe magislrale al leasi 48 hours before
Ihe lime they are cited lo appear in court.
In svalving their constitutional rights lo a
Irlal. Ihe offender Is admilling a plea of
gullly as charged and 11 will be so noted on
Ills record. In the case of a traffic
violation. Ihe North Carolina Department
ol Motor Vehicles or Ihe deparlmenl in the
state where the license was Issued will be
nolllled of Ihe conviction.
In other word.s. il has Ihe same legal
cllecl as a final conviction after a trial.
Traffic offenses, which are the most
common types of waivers, have a pre.sent
line depending on the violation.
In speeding citations, driving faster than
the posted limit but nol In excess of 70
inile.s per hour has a line of simply court
ccisls lor going line lo live miles over the
liinil .\ [me ol $.'i plus $16 court cost Is
levied lor si.\ lo li-ii miles over and $16
court cost plus a $10 fine for all 11 lo 15

A fine ol $25 and court cosi is required
lor driving without or wllh an expired
operalor’s or chauffeur’s license or
knowllngly pcrmllting your vehicle to be
so operated, and for driving Ihe wrong
way on a dual-lane highway.
Improper passing, failure lo dim lights,
heighih and width violations, illegal
transportation of one quart of less lax paid
alcoholic beverage wilh the seal broken in
the passenger area of Ihe car, all run $10
and court cost.
Driving loo slowly brings a $5 fine and

Davie Farm Bureau Urges Giving
Of Farm Products For Christmas
Davie County Farm Bureau has joined a
•slaleu’ide Farm Bureau effort to urge
people to give farm products for Christ
mas, according to Wilburn Spillman of
Davie County, President.
"We believe that gifts of farm products
will not only benefit the recipient,"
Spillman said, "but will also help the hard-
hit producers of many of these products."
Mr. Spillman pointed out that such items
as daily products, ham, turkey, fruits, plus
tobacco, cotton and peanut products make
ideal gifts. “While it isn't possible to bring
back the past, we can still enjoy the farm
cimimodities that made Christmas in the
country such a good experience," he said.
Theme of the promotion is "Give Farm
Products for an Old-Fashioned Christmas."
Producers of many farm commodities
are in a real economic bind,” Mr. Spillman
said. "By buying farm products as gifts,
consumers can do their part to help en
courage production and insure continued
ample supplies of food and fiber."
Special G ift Chairman
Mrs. Peggy Angell has been selected as
Special Gifts Chairman of the 1975 Heart
Fund Drive campaign for Davie County.
The campaign will begin in mid-
December of this year.
Those helping Mrs. Angell with Special
Gifts are Mrs. Patsy Staley, Mrs. Peggy
Micliael, Mrs. Grace Angell'and Mrs. Elsie Angell.

New Law On School
Records To Have
Little Effect In Davie
A new law passed last November, the
"Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act of 1974,” makes school records in
Davie County open to the student or his
parents if he is under 18 years of age.
According to superintendent James
Everidge, the new law will have little
effect in the county since a progressive
policy in that area has been in effect for
several years.
It has been the policy of county schools
to reveal achievement, interest, aptitude
and diagnostic test results to parent or
student when a qualified school official
was present to explain the results.
"Also, we have had parent conferences
for the past several years,” Everidge
explained, “to try to go over this type of
thing in order to help the student."
A "common sense approach” will be
used in dealing with looking at records
under the new law which covers IQ scores,
teacher comments, grades and any other
information contained on the cum-
mulative record of the sutdent.
"We already have our policy there,”
Everidge said. It will just be expanded to
include cummulative records and no great
rush of persons wishing to check their
records is expected.
The purpose of the new law is to
establish standard proceedures governing
access and handling of official records,
files and cummulative records.
The principal of a school will make
records available upon the request of the
parents of students 17-years-old or
younger or the request of a student 18
years or older and supply a qualified
school official to explain the results.
A hearing before school officials will
also be arranged for parents or sudents
wanting to challenge the contents of school
records for corrections of deletions of any
inaccurate, misleading or otherwise
inappropriate data.
The new law also spells out to which
persons or institutions the information on
school records may be released.

Traffic Violations And The Point System
by David Hoyle
Driving a car is a little like breathing. It
is something most people do every day but
without understanding all the fine points of
how the system works.
To help remedy the situation, this
column will appear from time to time to
help people better understand the laws
underwhich they operate their cars every
day.One question many people have when
slopped is how many points will be posted
against them as a result of the ticket the
officer is writing out.
Each conviction of a violation of North
Carolina Motor Vehicle laws is recorded
and a certain number of points assigned
according to the severity of the offense.
If two or more traffic offenses are
committed on a single occassion, then
points for only one offense will be assessed
and if they are of different point values,
the highest will be used.
Twelve points within a three-year period
Jaycee Toy Drive
The Mocksville Jaycees have a
Christmas toy drive underway which is
designed to help provide gifts for the un
derprivileged children in Davie County.
Any broken toys which are repairable or
any toy donations can be placed in boxes
at B.C. Moore’s, Edd’s Radio & TV Shop or
the Discount House. Boxes for these toys
■ihav#; also been placed at the Mocksville
Elementary and Mocksville Middle
Schools.
The Mocksville Jaycees will do all the
repairing on these toys and will ap
preciate the donations being put in the
boxes as soon as possible.
F'or further information concerning the
project, call Dick Nail at 634-5462 or Phil
Deadmon at 634-3377,
will suspend your license as will eight
points during a three-year period im
mediately following reinstatement of your
license after a period of suspension or
revocation.Passing a stopped school bus brings the
highest penalty with 5 points awarded.
Reckless driving, hit and run with
property damage only, following too close,
and driving on the wrong side of the road
all bring 4 points against your record.
Three points are assessed for running a
stop sign, speeding in excess of 55 miles
per hour, failing to yield righl-of-way,
running through a red light, no operator's
license or license expired more than one
year, failure to stop for siren, driving
through safety zone, no liability insurance
and failure to report an accident when
such a report is required. All other moving
violations are assessed 2 points.
No points are assigned for overloads,
over length, width, or height, illegal
parking, carrying a concealed weapon,
improper plates, registration or muffler,
public drunk within a vehicle, possession
of liquor, improper display of license
plates or dealers's tags, unlawful display
of emblems and insignia or failure 'Ij
display current inspection certificate.
When as many as four points are ac
cumulated, the Department of Motor
Vehicles will mail a letter of warning to the
licensee and the department may request
a conference with the driver who compiles
7 points in a three-year period or 4 points
within a three-year period after revocation
or suspension.
Also, drivers in that point catagory are
allowed to attend a driver improvement
clinic operated by the Department of
Motor Vehicles and upon completion, three
|x)ints shall be deducted from their record.
Only one three-point deduction is allowed
within any ten-year period.
When your license is suspended under
the point system, the first suspension shat
not exceed six months and any subsequent
suspension no more than one year.
The difference between revocation an^ I
suspension is mainly in terms of time anli |
the penalty for driving during either one is
one year for the first offense.
A suspension is usually for 30 or 60 days
while a revocation is six months to per
manent revocation.
Rotarians Hear Talk On "Coping With Evil”
The Rev. Charles Bullock, pastor of the
First Baptist Church of Mocksville,
brought the Mocksville Rotarians a
Christmas message Tuesday.
His theme was how to cope with the bad
or evil that surround us.
"There are only two ways of coping with
the bad or evil that surrounds us. One is to
turn your head and imagine that the bad or
evil doesn’t exist. The other, is to come to
grips with life..........facing both the good
and bad”, said Mr. Bullock.
Mr. Bullock discussed how the good and
bad were entwined in the Bible .... and
how especially it was entwined in the |
accounts of the birth and life of Jesus.
Dr. Victor Andrews had charge of the |
program and introduced Mr. Bullock.
President Ed Goodwin presided. -i
Dave Rankin reported on a visit that hI I
and Mr. Goodwin made with their wives to [
a meeting in Thomasville. He also an-1
nounced that a special ladies’ night
program is being scheduled for the local
Rotary Club for February 25th.
The special student guest was Margaret I
Goodlett, a senior at Davie High and |
captain of the basketball team.

rains in their prospective buses as they
played for the crowd through opened
windows.
Beauty queens trying to protect them
selves with umbrellas, included local
favorites such as Miss Mocksville, Sandra
Clontz, Davie Homecoming Qu6en, Lynn
McCullough and Miss Merry Christmas,
Athena Redmon, as well as Susan Lynn
Griffin, reigning Miss North Carolina from
High Point.
Other beauties, most of whom waved
from cars, were Miss Fourth of July, Miss
N. C. Teenager, North Carolina’s Dogwood
Queen, Miss Statesville, Miss Lexington,
Miss Mount Airy, Miss Winston-Salem and
Miss High Point.
The county commissioners looked out at
the crowd from their vintage Bonnie and
Clyde car and Mayor DeVito and town
officials were also protected inside their
automobiles.
The Advance and Cornatzer-Dulin
Volunteer Fire Departments provided
Christmas color in their red fire trucks and

The staff of the Davie County Public
Library extends a very cordial invitation
to everyone to attend the Christmas Open
House next Monday night at the Main
Library in Mocksville, from 7:00 to 8:30.
The Christmas Carolers, led by Letty
Smith, with Mike Hendrix at the organ,
will bring us Christmas music during the
evening, and Jim Martin has some sur
prise entertainment.
The Mocksville Woman’s Club will
provide refreshments.

wanted to hire a full-time person, who
would use her remaining time as his
secretary. Salary is to be $6,600 a year,
which means that $3,300 will have to come
from the clinic budget.
The burden of work has grown so,
Parrish said, that he is no longer able to
use the services of the three secretaries on
the Kowan staff, who serve as recep
tionists and secretaries for the
psycholiigioal, social services, and
alcoholism couiisrlors.
Gil Davis, replying to a comment that
money cai.iint Ih‘ equated with human
need, said dial such a position does not
respond to the taxpayer. He fears, he said,
efforts to build a bureaucratic structure
and doesn't believe the board should
support a continually growing ad
ministrative structure
Charlie Wallers said he is also eon-
terned by tlie rapidity of growth.
The i linic, Parrish responded, has been
playnig "catch up" ni the last lew years,
and other board members pointed to the
fact that services have grown enormously
with the growth of the clinic staff
Tlie most foolish thing that could be
done. .Mrs Sliirley Kitehie said is to liunlcii professiD/iai |«>ople with papt'r

costumes spelling out Merry Christmas,
Other groups braving the rains un
protected were scout troups riding in the
back of pickup trucks and the Fairfield 4-H
Club Marching Unit who marched the
route in the bone chilling rain.
Another group marching in the down
pour was the Soulful Strutters, who have
become somewhat of an annual favorite
with (heir innovative marching.
The Strutters, who often caused a gap in
the line of floats with their two-way
marching, were accompanied by a one-
man band who supplied the beat with a
pickup full of drums.
Cheerleaders from Davie County High
School and a number of elementary
schools showed remarkable school spirit
by chanting in the rain from the top of
automobiles.
Local horsemen, whose mounts would
probably rather have stayed in their warm
barns, rounded out the wet assembly and
Santa, who is used to foul weather, brought
up the rear on his giant sleigh.
All in all, the parade was a success in
spite of the weather and will be remem
bered in years to come for the colds and
runny noses that followed if not just for the
event itself.

George Leagans Trains
For Church Leadership
In oliiirch-mililani Icrms. Iho
Chri.slinn soldiers of the old
, hymn should not be lacking any
. f . time soon in a trained cadre, if
this year's figures on students
training at Campbell College for
church leadership are a reliable
indication.
According to a report
released this month by John
Bunn, head of the department
of religion, Campbell this term
is training some 130 students
for the m inistry or other
church-related vocations. The
breakdown shows 90 preparing
for the ministry; I,'!, for church
music; and 27, for religious
education.
According to Dr. Bunn the
total is an increase of ,13 over
^ last year’s figure.
' *■ Among those specializing at
the college for service in the
r ministry is George Leagans, a
sophomore, of Mocksville.

Pinebrook Students
Visit Greensboro
On November 15, the sixth
year students at Pinebrook
Elementary School visited
Greensboro,
They first stopped at the
Greensboro Regional Airport.
There they were shown the rain
guage and how it worked and
other weather devices. They
were also shown the television
room where weather broad
casts are sent to television
stations in the Winston-Salem,
Greensboro, High Point areas.
Their next stop was the
Guilford Battle Ground. On the
grounds they saw the statue of
Nathaniel Greene, who was a
U.S. military officer during the
American Revolutionary War,
The group was then shown
slides of the battle that took
place there. They were also
shown the tombs of two men
who signed the Declaration of
Independence. While there,
they were instructed on how to
fire a musket.
Their last stop was the Nature
Science Museum were they saw
live animals such as rabbits,
llama, buffalo, deer and burros.

Alcoholism.
ISentor Sam Ervin Says
The 93rd Congress is rapidly
coming to a close. The ad
journment target is now
December 21st with a multitude
of bills awaiting final action as
this is written.
The Senate leadership has
indicated that the following
measures will be disposed of
prior to adjournment; the
nomination of Nelson
Rockefeller for the Vice
Presidency, which is scheduled
for this week; the trade reform
bill; the supplemental ap
propriations conference report;
the agricultural appropriations
conference report; the military
construction authorization and
appropriation; the standby
emergency energy bill;
authorizations for the Atomic
Energy Commission and the
maritime program; legislation
to assert United States
jurisdiction over ocean areas; a
bill to extend the Head Start,
Community Action, and
Community Econmic
Development programs, and a
multitude of conference reports
on other legislation. Rising
employment rates may also
bring legislation on that subject
to the Senate Floor befoer
adjournment.
A major issue is developing
over the Federal budget.
President Ford has proposed a
series of budget cuts amounting
to about $4.6 billion for the
current fiscal year. What is of
much concern to the Congress is
whether these spending
reductions will magnify the
problems of the economic
recession that now confront our
pi'ople About $3.1 billion of the
couts would conn- out of Federal
heullh, income securily, and
velerans programs Another
$tiUU million would come from
reductions in defense six'ndmj;
These cutbacks come al a uiiil'
when unetnploytneni rales are
soaring toward the highest
number of jobless since the
Great Depression
Al stake is how much deficit
the Federal Treasiii v will mt in
The amount of "leii ink" in
pr»s|H'i'l appear.'. Ii> l>i' nearly
$14 billion for the current fiscal
year. The President's reduc
tions would bring the deficit
down to a little over $9 billion if
Congress approves his proposed
deferrals and recisions of
spending authority.
The House last week refused
to allow budget cuts requested
by the President to curtail
spending for rural elec
trification loans and
ag ricu ltura l conservation
programs. It has not acted yet
on the latest $4.6 billion in cuts
proposed by the President.
One area of spending
reduction that would get a more
sympathetic reception by the
Congress is foreign aid.
Congress has been reluctant to
extend foreign aid to other
nations even though the Ad
ministration wants to continue
the foreigh aid program that
most Americans would like to
see reduced or eliminated.
With new Senate and House
Budget Committees just going
into operation and a new
Congress coming into office in
three weeks, the battle over the
gudget is just beginning.

6 DAVIE COLINTt' ENTERPRISE RECORD, THURSDAY. DECEMBER i:. 1>)74
S e n a to r- E le c t R o b e r t M o r g a n V isits In g e r s o ll- R a n d
By David Hoyle
Si’niilor-oiocl Hobcrt Morgan, fre.sh
from his cicc'tion to Ihc United States
Senate in November, stopped by
Moeksville last week to speak to em
ployees of Ingersoll-Rand.
lie was in town to tour the plant, have
dinner with the plant managers and speak
with the Tech Club later in the evening.
The tour started shortly after 4:00 p.m.
when the .senator arrived from Raleigh
with his aide, Mike Mann, and was
e.scorted to the plant by Dr. Ramey Kemp,
his campaign manager in Davie County.
One of the first things Morgan noted on
entering Ingersoll-Rand’s new office
complex was that the offices were "a lot
nicer than those given to senators."
The senator was also impressed by the
automated carts which moved parts from
place to place with no driver. “That might
be the principle we use when we have
driverless automobiles," he commented.
Donning a pair of safety galsses, the
•senator was conducted through the plant
by managers David Harris, James
Runyan, John Cottle, Frank Cox and
Charles Spear.Kollowing the tour, on which Morgan
asked many questions on compressors, the
plant's manufacturing processes, and
shaking hands with employees at every
opportunity, the senator and party slopped
for dinner with the company managers
and supervisors.
After dinner, Morgan addressed the
managers, relating the events that led up
to his decision to run for the senate and
“talking politics."
“More people need to start talking
politics," the Senator said, “because
Watergate and other events resulted from
the public not knowing enough about it."
After his speech, the senator opened the
floor to questions, most of which revolved
around issues affecting the Ingersoll-Rand
operation, the economy, taxes and the free
enterprise system.
Asked about the last election where ax out
of ten people didn’t bother to vote, Morgan
attributed the apathy to the fact that
Americans have had good government for

so long that they just are not concerned
any more.
“ I don’t think it’s fair for the average
American to pay 18 percent of their income
in ta.xes while the big oil companies pay
only one per cent," Morgan said. “But if
the people don’t get out and vote, then we’ll
continue to have these special interests.”
Still on the issue of oil, Morgan said,
‘The oil producing nations of the world arc
skating on thin ice in light of the
aggressive people in the world without
oil," pointing in particular lo Germany
and Japan.
“ We in America have to develop other
sources of energy," he continued, “We

Ho siri'ssed the need for more com-
poliliiin, piiinling to the higher rate of
inflation among industries where there is
little competition and lho.se where com-
petilion is high.
Alter speaking lo the managers, Morgan
addressed the meeting of the Ingersoll-
Hand Tech Club and their guests including
wives and students from (he county’s
elenienlary schools and high school.
The high cost of money and over
spending by the government were two of
Ihc l)iggcsl problems facing the country,
Morgan said.
The national budget has risen from $200
billion in IWlil lo $:UI0 l)illion for the pre.sent
fiscal year, Morgan said, "The budget of
our counlry has grown half again as much
during that time as in the previous 1!)0
years”
“Today we probably face the biggest
crisis in our ccononiy that we have faced in
many years." the senator said, adding
’the government has lo learn lo live within
its Income.’'
On politics, Morgan said he was proud to
he a politician in spite of all the bad
publicity they have gotten lately,
■'There are good and bad politicians, just
like anything else. " Morgan said.
"Sometimes we let the actions of a few
taint all of us. Politics is nothing in the
world more than the business of Govern
ment."
Other topics Morgan touched on. either
in his lalk or through questions, were
health care, the high cost of living, the
shortage of doctors and his pet project, the
KasI Carolina Medical School.
"Unless the medical profession ceases
its opposition to training more medical
pcrsoiniel. the people of this country are
going to rise up and demand that
.something be done about it," he said.
In his concluding remarks, the senator
noted that meeting with the people In
groups like this was Important in his work
in Washington as well as giving him a
hroad background on America's industries
and their problems.
Following his talk, the senator was
presented with a framed picture from the
Tech Club of a scene from Old Salem
painted by an Ingersoll-Rand employee,
Irving Riley.
Morgan then left the plant with his aid to
go back to Raleigh and prepare for a trip to
Washington the following day to ready
himself for his duties as North Carolina’s
junior senator.
Follow ing a speech to Ingersoll-Rand’s managers and supervisors, Senator
M organ talks w ith Barnes Daniels (center) and Charlie Spear (left).
Your Food Dollar
Despite widely fluctuating prices, food from our
American farms is still a pretty good bargain,
.‘\mericans are generally eating more and eating better
than ever before,
A recent USD.\ publication describes some of the
problems and changes facing today’s consumer. For
instance, in I95:i the "average person" ate 78 pounds of
beef. Compare this with 109 pounds in 197;i. During this
same twenty-year period, nearly everything increased in
cost. Surprisingly, the increase in the cost of food has
climbed at about the same rate as many other goods and
services. Increases were as follows:
Food - 70,4 percent;
Transportation - 5,i.7 percent
Consumer Items - 06.2 percent
Mousing - 67.1 percent
.Medical Care - 124.5 percent
Kven though the cost of food has risen significantly,
when compared to income the percentage spent on food
has decreased from 22 percent in 1953 to 15.7 percent in
1973.
American agriculture continues to provide a good buy
for your food dollar. Hopefully, these facts will help
"soothe the pain" at the supermarket check-out counter
tlie next time you partake of America’s bounty.

Social Security
. . . by Hal G riffm
Now that most people age 65
and over, and many under age
,^65 .who receive disability
benefits under social security,
are covered under Medicare, it
becomes Increasingly more
important for these people to
keep up with their doctor bills.
Under the Supplemental
Medical Insurance, 80 percent
of the doctors’ reasonable
charges are reimbursed by
Medicare after the yearly $60.00
deductible is met. In simpler
terms, the patient is responsible
for the first $60.00 in doctors’
bills yearly. Then. Medicare
pays $8.00 of every $10.00 of
reasonable doctors’ charges
thereafter. No payments can be
^ made, however, until a claim is
filed with Medicare and its here
that social security urges
people to be careful. A patient
r may assume he is not covered
for reimbursement under
Medicare or that his doctor is
going to file a claim for him
with Medicare. This is not
always the case and no
reimbursement may be made in
cases where it could be if only a
claim was filed.
How is a claim filed under the
Medical Insurance of
Medicare? Well, (here are 2
ways. First, you; doctor may
decide to file, with your
I approval, so that
' reimbursement will be made
directly to him. However, if he
does not wish to do this, it is
then your responsibility to file.
He is not obliged to do this and if
he does, it is as a service to you.
Thus, it is extremely important
that you determine just who will
be filling the claim with
Medicare before you leave the
doctor’s office, the hospital, or
wherever the doctor has treated
you.
Assuming you will be filling
the claim, there are certain
items that must be contained on
the doctor’s itemized bill or
receipt that must be submitted
to Medicare with your claim for
payment. These items are
listed on the back of the claims
form itself (SSA-1490 • Request
for Medicare Payment.)
You should be sure these
items are all covered or there
will very likely be a delay or
perhaps no payment at all.
This, of course, also applies to
the doctor if he sends the claim
to Medicare.
If you have been neglecting to
keep up with your bills,
remember, you may still send
in a claim covering past
treatment, as long as you were
covered under the Medical part
of Medicare at the time. At
present, not only may you file a
claim for all covered treatment
in 1973, but you have until
December 31, 1974, to submit
bills dating as far back as
October 1,1972. This could be a
windfall for many people due
for reimbursement but never
claimed. If you need any help in
submitting your claim, or a
claims form itself, contact the
Salisbury Social Security
Office, 105 Corriher Avenue,
Salisbury, N.C. 28144. telephone
634-286B.
What social security benefits

Children under 18 can be

unmarried students
between age 18-22. Disabled
children may also he paid.
If the deceased was quite
young, and had maximum
earnings all years, the total
family payments could he
much higher.
I am covered by both parts of
Medicare. I need to have all my
teeth extracted and replaced
with dentures. My dentist says
my bill for this won’t be covered
by Medicare. But I have a
friend whose dentist sent her to
a hospital to have all her teeth
extracted and Medicare paid
the bills. Is my dentist
mistaken?
Your dentist is not wrong.
The cost of dental services,
including extractions and
dentures, is not covered
under Medicare. However,
in certain unusual situations
where the patient's physical
condition requires
hospitalization during (he
dental procedures, (he
hospKal expense is covered
by (he hospUal insurance
par( of Medicare even
though the dentist’s services
are not covered. This is
probably what happened to
your friend.
Please tell me what papers to
take with me when I apply for
monthly social security
retirement payments.
All you need is your social
security card, birth
certificate, and latest W-2
form to apply for retirement
benefits. U you don'( have
all (hose papers, we may be
able lo suggest substitutes.
Just be sure to apply 2 (o 3
months before your actual
retirement date.
I have a maid who works one
day a week for me. She works
four days a week for a neighbor
who reports her wages for
social security. Since someone
else is reporting her wages is it
necessary for me also to make a
report?
Yes, provided you pay her
$5(1 or more in a calendar
quarter. The number of
employers makes no
difference.
I used to work as a waitress in
a restaurant and reported my
tips every month to my boss so I
could get social security credit
for them because they always
came to more than $20 for the
month. I’ve changed jobs and
now I work as a waitress in a
restaurant during the week and
in a hotel dining room over the
weekends. How should I take
care of reporting my tips to be
sure I’m getting social security
credit?
If your cash tips add up to
$20 or more in a month on
each of yoiu- jobs, then .vou
should report them to each
boss by the lOth of the
following month and pay (he
social s e c u r i(y
con(ribu(ions. In o(her
words, you'll follow (he
same procedure as you did
when you had one job as
long as your (ips add up to al
least $2(1 » month on each of
your jobs.
My husband and I receive a
monthly social security check
with both our names on it. For
personal reasons 1 would prefer
a separate clieck. What must I
do to have the checks come
separately?

The dedication address was delivered by
Lieutenant General John J. Tolson (Ret.),
Secretary of the Department of Military
and Veterans Affairs of the State of North
Carolina. It was as follows;
Anyone in America who has the slightest
sense of history knows the significance of
December 7. The late President Franklin
D. Roosevelt called it “A Day That Will
Live In Infamy,” for it was on December 7,
1941, that Japanese airplanes bombed
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, precipitating
United'States involvement in World War
II. Some people may regard the
dedication of a National Guard Armory on
December 7 as an ill chosen date for such
an occasion. On the contrary, this date is
quite appropriate. Pearl Harbor Day is
not only a stark reminder of how poorly
prepared this nation was to enter World
War II, but the rememberance of this day
serves as a message - loud and clear - to
the rest of the world: We do not intend to
make the same mistake again. Although
the United States is a peace-loving nation,
we stand ready to fight tor the principles
we believe in, when necessary.
A National Guard Armory is an
especially appropriate symbol of this
readiness. In the total force concept of
today’s Armed Forces, the National Guard
and other reserve components have taken
on a vital defensive role. The current
restructuring of our Armed Forces calls
for a small active duty military establish
ment and the heaviest reliance in the
history of our nation upon the Guard and
other reserve components as an im
mediate ready force in the event of future
national emergencies.
In the past we have relied on the draft to
maintain a standing Army. Today all
branches of the service are voluntary.
While the size of our active forces has been
scaled down for peace-time operations,
recent reports show that the National
Guard and other reserve forces now
comprise more than 40 percent of our total
Armed Forces.
While the National Guard has increased
in quantity, it should go without saying
that the attention to the quality of the
Guard has not diminished one bit. For
rapid assessment of troop strength, the
National Guard instituted an automated
data processing system earlier this year to
gather, compile and summarize this in
formation. This method of taking a quick
“pulse” of the National Guard graphically
illustrates the vibrant role that the Guard
is expected to play in national defense.
The most valuable asset of any
organization, however, is the people who
make up the organization. The Guard has
been fortunate in attracting people who
are interested in doing their jobs well; and
through the years our North Carolina
Military Academy at Fort Bragg has
continued to turn out officers who can take
their places beside any officer in this
country. Working together, officers and
enlisted personnel build on the excellency
of the National Guard and maintain the
Guard's reputation for efficiency and
community concern.
That phrase “community concern” is
worth repeating, as the Guard participates
in community action programs to assist in
projects that benefit the community and
its citizens. Guardsmen volunteer their
free time, mostly on weekends, to provide
help needed by the community.
Assistance Includes helping youth groups
in sporting and other activities, assisting
in ecological and environmental projects,
participating in clean-up campaigns,
working with Boy Scouts in youth
development, helping in safety cam
paigns, constructing athletic fields, play
grounds and camp sites, helping to
distribute food for the needy, sponsoring
Christmas programs for the blind and
other handicapped children and assisting
with activities at mental hospitals. When a
jet airplane crashed near Charlotte
September 11, members of the Air and
Army National Guard in the area rushed to
assist in rescue efforts and to remove
victims from the crash site. When
•'Hurricane F ifi” struck Honduras,
National Guard units assisted in the
collection of food and other items for relief
operations. More recently, the Guard
supplied vehicles for relief operations
after floods occurred in the Virgin Islands.
Members of the National Guard have
contributed long hours and hard work
looking for downed aircraft in coordination
with the Civil Air Patrol. The list of ser
vices provided by the National Guard
could go on and on, but the point is clear!
The National Guard provides relief in
times of local or national disaster, as well
as forming an integral part of our national
defense,
We all hope and pray that no major
disaster, natural or man-made, will ever
occur near Mocksville, but if the need
should arise, the men and women who
train at the Annor>’ liere will be ready and
willing to assist Iheir fellow man in the
community.
1 have mentioned “community con
cern", now let me touch briefly on
“community pride” - not that 1 really have
to, because you, the people who live in this
community, truly know the meaning of
community pride, and this fine National
Guard Armory is a monument to that.
Without your support, cooperation and
complete commitment to this cause, the
dedication today would not have been
possible. You have clearly shown that this
is your National Guard, and that you
appreciate what the men and women of
ithis unit mean to you.
Being a member of the National Guard
is a difficult assignment. Anything that is
worthwhile must come through hard
work; therefore, the dedication of this
Armory is just the beginning of a long line
of arduous tasks. We know that the
Guardsmen and women here today will
measure up to each assignment. That is
why they are members of the National
Guard. We know also that those of you
here today who are non-Guardsmen will
continue your support of the Guard - that is
why this is all possible, and I again repeat
that December 7 is truly a great day for a
dedication and a rededication.
The prayer of dedication was presented
by the Rev. Leland Richardson, minister
of the First Presbyterian Oiurch offc
Mocksville.
Following the program refreshments
were served and guests toured the facility.
An estimated 250 persons attended the dedication ceremony.
Principals taking part in the dedication program of the new armory listen as Lt.
Ravinond F. Spengler, commander of the local unit, gives the address of welcome. Seated, leit to right: the Rev. Leland Richardson, minister of tlie First
Presbyterian Church who gave the prayer of dedication; Lt. Col. Robert O. Williams, Commander of the 2nd Battalion; Charles (Bud) Alexander, Chairman of the Bead of County Commissioners; Arlen DeVito, Mayor of Mocksville; Major

This series comes to .voii as a
piihllc service of this newspaper
in cooperation with the
.Sallhiiry Optimist I'hib's area-
wide drug abuse Information
program.
Many parents ask how they
can (cl! if their child iias a
problem and is using drugs.
Until the time comes when
parents understand why
children lake drugs, there will
continue to be a drug problem.
It first requires the parent’s
ability to recognize Ihe danger
signs, along with understanding
the emotional needs of their
children.
When a teenager starts using
drugs on a regular basis, there
arc usually changes in his
behavior pattern. Think of these
warning signs. A child might
drop old friends in favor of a
new gang, or suddenly find new
activities with his old friends.
He or she may change from an
outgoing to a withdrawn child,
or vice versa. You may also find
a change in his style of dress.
Usually when a child starts on
drugs, he acquires a new sense
of identity which will be reflected
in the clothes he wears.
Probably you will also find a
subtle, indirect call for help
from the troubled child.
What are the possibilities that
your child will become involved
with drugs? By the lime he
graduates from high school,
there is over a 80 per cent
chance that he will have
smoked marijuana at least
once.However, 75 per cent who
try it, will quit after the first or
second lime. If your child goes
beyond this point, there are
other physical signs to look for.
Marijuana will leave a
distinctive odor-almost like
burning rope- on a person’s
clothing for several hours.
Marijuana users experience
an unusual appetite for sweets
and starches.
Tranquilizers will make a
person sleepy and listless.
Opiates, such as heroin and
morphine will cause eye pupils
to contract.
Drugs containing atropine
may cause Ihe pupils to dilate,
and user will start wearing
sunglasses.
LSD produces a sense of
disembodiment, and the user
will start talking about
universal love, nature, etc.
However, a bad trip on LSD is
unmistakable, the person will
display panic, as if having a

BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU
Balancing Your
Energy liudget
With the chill of winter coming
on, consumers once again are
being asked to reduce their
consumption of energy. Energy
conservation makes sense - and
it’s in both the national interest
and your own financial interest.
The better Business Bureau has
compiled a lisi of 66 ways to
save energy painlessly by
developing a homo energy
budget. Here are some of them:
Heating
Lower your thermostat to
between 65 and 68 degrees
during the day and to 60 degrees
at night. If this is un
comfortable, (urn it up one
degree and pul on a sweater or
an extra blanket.
If you have your furnace
serviced once a year it will run
more efficiently and you may
save about 10 percent in fuel
consumption, Keep the filters
clean. Fix heating duct leaks
with adhesive tape or diict-
sealing tape.
If your home is well in
sulated, you’ll save on heating
bills:Caulk and weatherstrip doors
and windows.
Install slorm windows or tape
clear plastic film lo window
frames .ind get tho same effect.
Put in six inches of insulation
in your attic. If you do this
yourself, remember to wear
gloves, mask and protective
clothing.
Hot Water
Hoi water is Ihe second
biggest element -- behind
heating and cooling - in your
liome energy hill. But you don’t
have lo take cold showers lo
.save here;
Set the hoi water heater
thermostal on normal or about
HO degrees, for greatest
economy. II s a good idea lo
insulate Ihe hoi waler lank and
pipmg.
Many laundry detergents
perform very well In cold waler.
So try your nexi wash in cold
waler, using a detergent
designed for this temperature.
And wash a full load, unless
your washer has lower waler
level sellings lor pailial loads.
ll.se less hot waler by laking
siiowers instead of l)alhs.
Kix leaky faucets, especially
when hot waler is dripping. One
drop a second wastes aboul TIKI
gallons of H'aler a year.
Be sure your dishwasher is
lull wlu'n you use it. eaeii load
uses alxiul 14 gallons of hot
waler. I,el your dishes air dry -

We met many parents and
children while traveling with

danger signs of drug abuse.
Usually the biggest problem is
in the parents’ reaction.
When parents discover their
child is using drugs, they panic.
Harsh words and a com
munication breakdown follow.

Make the most of your oven
heal. Try to plan all oven
cooked dishes for a meal, or fill
the oven with extra foods that
can be rehealed for later use.
Turn off the oven 30 minutes
before roasts arc done - the
remaining heat will finish the
job. Don’t open the door to peek
- every time you do this you
lose as much as a quarter of the
heal.
Other Ways
Lights that are left on in
unused rooms waste your
money-tum them off. If you need a
lot of lighi in a reading or work
area, one large bulb is better
than several smaller ones; a
tOO-watl bulb gives you more
light than two 60-watt bulbs.
Even better are fluorescent
lights; a 40-wall fluorescent
bulb gives more light than a 100-
walt incandescent one, lasts 10
limes as long, and uses less than
half the energy.
Try lo use your car less and
depend more on carpooling,
public transportation, bicycling
and walking. When you do
drive, keep gas milage in mind.
Kegular tuneups will keep your
car running efficiently. Check
lire pressure often. And drive as
if you’re almost out of gas. That
means driving smoothly and not
exceeding .W miles an hour.
Accelerate gradually and an
ticipate the traffic ahead so you
can brake sparingly. And when
you’re wailing in your car, turn
off the engine instead of letting
il idle.

Tips Offered On How Parents
Can Make Toys For Babies
A clear, plastic bottle par
tially filled with popping corn
and oil, a plastic egg that once
held pantyhose covered In
bright paper rattling on a stick,
strips of textured m aterial
suspended from a string-these
are just a few of the toys for
babies that parents can make.
The tips in toymaking were
offered to parents recently at a
pre-Christmas symposium
sponsored by graduate students
in child development and family
relations at the University of
North Carolina at Greensboro.
The toymaking workshop was
one of three subject areas
covered in a session entitled,
“Learning to Look at Infants,”
which was held in the UNC-G
School of Home Economics.
"Toys for infants should be
simple and safe,” said Mrs.
Beth Kelly Monroe, a doctoral
degree student who directed the
workshop called “Babies Play
to Learn.”
“ Infants’ play is infants'
work,” she said. “Babies are
getting all the information they
can from their environment. I
don't think parents realize how
much babies learn in their
cribs. Research is constantly
indicating babies are much
more complex and
sophisticated than we thought.”
Since babies have no
language and only limited
mobility, those things that are
provided for them-within the
environment of their crib-are
all they observe.
“Infants have their eyes,
ears, and hands," said Mrs.
Monroe. "They’re extremely
sensitive to all the things in
their environment that
stimulate these senses.”
Infants need simple things
they can hold, look at and feel,
she said. And although
stimulation is extremely im
portant, it can be overdone.
"Often toys are so stimulating
infants don’t know what to focus
m ,” explained Mrs. Monroe.
“And if a mobile or toy is left in
view all the time, the infant
quickly tires of it. The best
solution is to change toys and
mobiles every few days. Then
when it's returned, it will be a
new toy to the child.
“ Babies are individuals,"
stressed Mrs. Monroe.
Research, she said, has shown
that babies exhibit preferences
in sound, textures, and visual
patterns at six weeks of age.
Geometric shapes on a mobile
give infants the opportunity to
exercise their preferences, as
will various designs painted on
the mobile pieces. Mobiles
made of toothbrushes, cups, and
other items familiar to the
household are easy, inexpensive
and effective, said Mrs.
Monroe.
In the workshop, it was
stressed that parents should be
aware of age-appropriate toys.
Many toy manufactures put
very broad age guidelines, such
as 0-3, on their toys, giving
parents little guidance, it was
noted.
"Often parents try to force
things on babies that they are
just not ready for,” said Mrs.
Monroe. "To give an infant a
football or a doll is ridiculous.
An infant just doesn't know
what to do with it.
"Although babies are lear
ning much more than we think,
from an adult standpoint that
learning is so simple as to be
almost unobservable,” she said.
The workshop included a
demonstration of toys the
graduate students had made,
and then was followed by a
toymaking session.
Two of the more popular toy
recipes at the session were the
popcorn bottle and the plastic
rattle. This is how they can be
made:
To make the popcorn bottle
take a clear plastic bottle of a
size an infant can grasp and put
in it one quarter of a cup salad
oil and the same amount of
popping corn, preferably
colored. The top of the bottle
should be glued on with sturdy
glue.
The rattle made with a plastic
egg is also simple and inex
pensive. Place beans, corn,
paper clips, or several of such
items inside the plastic egg and
secure the seam with tape.
Make a hole with a heated nail
at one end of the egg and glue in
a short dowell or stick. The egg
can be covered with brightly
colored contact paper.
"Babies aren't label con
scious,” said Mrs. Monroe.
“Homemade toys are just as
good for infants as expensive
store bought ones.
Actually, everything is a toy
to a child.”
Parents should be sure not to
give infants homemade or store
bought toys that might be
dangerous, said Mrs. Monroe.
“They should be sure there
are no small parts that might
come oft and be swallowed, and
that no plastic bagging is given
to children.”
Few Books O n
"F u rc h e s F o lk s"
Are A v a ila b le
J, Frank Furches of Clem
mons and recent author of a
book, "The Furches Folks”,
says he has only 35 copies
remaining from the original
publication of 500.
“There will be no reruns, and
if there are kinsmen, churches
or libraries in the Davie area
that may still want a book, it
would be wise to order now",
said Mr. Furches. There are
dozens of relatives and in-laws
in Davie County and this book
would also make an ideal gift
for friends and additions in
kinsmen families since late
1971” , he said.
Book dealers, in and out of
slate, are asking Mr. Furches
for his last few books, but he
prefers to give his kin first
choice. One book store operator
has already purchased eleven
books. The price per book is
$9.95 prepaid.
For deliveries before
Christmas, orders should reach
Mr. Furches. Box 128, Clem
mons, N.C., by December 20th.

needlessly, in traffic crashes.
- According lo Easlon, the
major f.ictor in winter mishaps
is nvcr confidence. ,-\ driver

;\s cine <'.\ainple of Ihis over
confidence, Easlon said that
drivers forget about the greater
distances required' to bring a
car 111 a slop on snow and ice,
and conseiiuently lend to drive
loo last on slippery surfaces. .As
an exireme condition ■ glare ice
al :!2 the braking distance from
a speed ot only 20 mpli may be
as much as 2(10 feet or even
more - somewhere around 12
car lengths At higher speeds,
mph for example, the slop
ping distance on ice may be
over one-quarter of a mile,
according lo Easlon'.
Citing other lest results by the
Council's Committee on Winter
Driving Hazards, he reported
the following findings:
■Conventional snow tires
I without studs I are actually
slightly inferior in stopping
ability Iin ice when compared to
regular tires. However, they do
[lerform appreciably better on
loosely packed snow where they
provide half again as much
pulling or Iraction ability as
regular highway lires. On glare
ice, their traction ability is
about 211 percent better than
regular lires.
-Studded snow tires on rear
wheels i where legal I reduce
slopping distances on ice by 19
ix'fcent.
-The old standby - reinforced
lire chains - are still best for
,severe snow and ice condilion.s.
They reduce braking distances
on ice by 50 percent, and
produce from four to seven
limes the pulling ability of
convenlional tires,
Easton was quick lo point out
that while these traction aids
produce considerable itn-
provements in both traction and
braking ability, they do not
im prove cornering a b ility
appreciably when used on the
rear wheels only.
In offering drive rs other
research developed by the
Committee, Easton emphasi/.ed
the importance of getting a
' feel " for the road surface.
You must constantly know just
how much - or how little -
Iraction your tires have.
Away Ironi traffic, try your
brakes gently or accelerate in
spurls lo find out whether the
wheels slip or spin. If they do,
slow down and do all
maneuvering with a gentle.
delicate touch
Even with the help of traction
aids - snow lires. studs where
legal, and tire chains - far
slower than normal speeds arc
essential, Easton concluded.

NOBODY CARES
An eighteen year old student in his freshman year of college
climbed the steel cables of the Brooklyn Bridge in New York.
A lady passing by saw him
dangling more than 120 feet
above the pavement. Within
minutes rescue units were there
and climbed the bridge only to
be eluded by the frightened
student as he swung from one
cable to the next screaming,
"Nobody wants me! Nobody cares*"
Finally a minister who had known
the boy came to the scene and called
to him, "I am too old to come up
there and get you. But if you will
come down. I promise to help you.”
The distraught boy came down and found that someone did care and
was able to help him.
How many lonely and distressed souls
are there who feel that nobody on
earth cares for them? They are
frustrated and desolate and many
resort to suicide. How sad ... for
there is One who cares and Is able
and anxious to help them.
The boy on the bridge came down
to receive the care of his friend. We
must come humbly to the Lord If we wish to receive His forgiveness
and care. What a joy to know that
"He careth for you."

social Security
-Questions—Answers-
I did not receive my social
security monthly check this
month. We have a new mail
I carrier who perhaps didn't
' realize I had moved to another
street in town. Could this be the
reason I didn’t receive my
check?
There are any number of
reasons why a person’s
social security check does
not arrive on time;
however, in the past tew
months a number of people
failed to get a check because
they did not notify the social
security office of an address
change. If you change your
address, please notify the
social security office. The
post office can forward your
■ check for a short period of
1 ^ 'tirti^- 'but after that will
return the check to the
Treasury Department as
undeliverable.

History And Meaning
Of Christmas Has Always
Gleamed With Light
The history and meaning of
Christmas have always
gleamed with light. The Wise
Men followed the light of a star
to the manger in the Holy Land,
which was already ablaze with
candles celebrating Chanukah,
the Jewish Festival of Lights.
The starry skies of a
Christmas night so impressed
Martin Luther that he went
back home and hung candles on
his Christmas tree. It was the
first time, some authorities
insist, that the tree was trim
med with lights.
In America, Christmas lights
are a time-honored tradition
and only once have they been
banned — last year to focus
attention on the energy crisis.
The ban has been lifted,
however, and Christmas 1974
should be ablaze with lights to
heighten a joyous national
spirit.
Strung around doorways and
windows — indoors and out —
and, of course, festooning the
Christmas trees, will be the
traditional decorative lights
that make Christmas truly
festive for millions of
Americans.
In many homes, particularly
on the Atlantic seaboard,
candle-shaped lights will ap
pear at the windows on
Christmas Eve. This lovely
ritual, borrowed from Ireland,
is intended to light the Holy
Family on its way.
We can thank the dazzling
lights of Christmas for another
seasonal bright spot, the singing
of Silent Night. It’s said that the
stars and candlelight of a
Christmas midnight inspired

The Cooleemee Senior
Citizens held their annual
Christmas dinner Monday in the
fellowship hall of the First
Baptist Church with 81 mem
bers and guests attending.
The seventh and eighth year
students at Cooleemee
Elementary School entertained
the group with a musical
program under the direction of
Mrs. Charles Crenshaw and
accompanied by Mike Hendrix.
A delicious meal of ham,
turkey, and all the trimmings
was ’ served immediately
tollowing the program.
Rev. and Mrs. Ray F’ennell,
Rev and Mrs. Roscoe Brown

members of the local Civic Club
were among the special guests.

1818. His countryman and fellow
cleric, Franz Gruber, set them
to music.
Another source of Christmas
light illuminates this old French
legend, a child-pleasing ex
planation of how the robin got
its gawdy chest. It seems that
an early bird charitably used its
wings to fan the fire that kept
the Christ Child warm as he lay
in his manger. The glowing heat
of the flames reddened the
robin’s breast, and it stayed
that way forever after.
Though we’ve borrowed so
much seasonal regalia from
other lands, some of the world’s
most colorful customs have yet
to be imported here. A shining
example is the Mexican posada,
held on each of the eight nights
prior to Christmas Eve.
carrying candles and figurines
of Mary and Joseph, members
of a family go from door to door
seeking entry. Turned away by
each of their neighbors, they’re
admitted to the last house on
their route, where they enter
and sing their thanks. Next
night a different family goes
forth, and so on, until the cycle
is completed.
Some Yuletide ideas,
however, are better left abroad.
We’d hate to follow the lead of
the British Parliament that
banned Christmas altogether. It
happened in 1644. When Oliver
Cromwell and his Puritan
followers came to power they
looked askance at the gay and
noisy celebration that had
become a Christmas custom.
One traditional item that
particularly incensed them was
the Yule log, a huge tree that
was burned throughout the
holiday. It had been the focus of
seasonal revelry since the
pagan sun-worshipping rites of
ancient Britain, which had also
taken place in late December.
That was enough for Cromwell,
who banned the whole Christ
mas celebration as “immoral
sun-Worshippe.’’
There’s no telling how dour
and sour old Oliver would have
reacted to our modern
Christmas, with its blazing
glory of Yule lights strung
above the main thoroughfares
of most American towns. In
New York, for example, a three-
mile row of lighted Christmas
trees — right down the center of
Park Avenue — traditionally
leads to a huge cross of lighted
windows high in a towering
skyscraper. And traditional,
too, is the mammoth tree in
New York’s Rockefeller Plaza,
towering at least 64 feet above
the adm iring crowds and
illuminated by more than 3,000
electric outdoor Christmas
lights.
This Christmas America should
be shining from one end of the
land to the other — shining with
hope and joy and the traditional
decorative lights!

Bits Of Life
By ROSCOE BROWN FISHER
T he W in d o w O f M y S o u l
While in New York, the family became accustomed to
the prok>nged winter season. Occasionally the snows came early and remained late.The biggest snow ot the season came during the night.
. My little efforts seemed so small compared with the grand display of the Hand of God outside the window of
my study.The snow was falling again—thick and heavy. The light
flakes drifted, tossed, then settled. Surely God was
touching earth. How wonderful! That He had chosen this method of blotting out the black and ugly spots of the
world.Perhaps . . . my feeble mind, this time, was big
enough to Interpret the handiwork of God!Others might grumble alMut the cold, the frozen streets, the slush to follow—but not I, not now; for I was seeing
God beautifully pave the street in front of my picture window.
As the hazy outline of the houses far up and down
the street pierced through the falling flakes, I realized again my vantage point just inside the large window.
I was reminded ot what Carl Sandburg said to his wife, Paula, as they sat on the porch of their Flat Rock
home, Connemara, absorbing a yellow-pink sunset, "Look
at all the sky we bought."It was clear to me now, the mistake 1 had often made
—trying to look out of a soul from windows too small.

G o o d b y Dear A unt Pam
Aunt Pam I love you dearly.
Please play with me some more.
Come here and read me a story
And don’t act like it’s a chore.
Although you’re a louzy babysitter
You know 1 love you more.
We’ll play the records, dance and sing
And have a grand old fling.
It's not too late, you don’t have to go
Just stay with me tonight.
I’ll even let you sleep with me.
And we’ll giggle all the night.
All these things I will remember
And cherish all my life.
I’ll always know you loved me.
You know I love you too.
And one day when God calls for me
We’ll meet again up there
I know you are in heaven’s home
I’ll see you when I get there.
I love you.
Good-bye Aunt Pam.

Farewell To A ne autiful Rose
God created heaven and earth.
And everything within.
He gave us many blessings,
And we'll thank Him ’till the end.
But he gave us a special blessing
When He sent dear Pam our way.
For each day “Our Rose” had bloomed.
More beautiful in every way.
Her love for life was always shown.
In the sweet, kind things she did.
She had never met a stranger
And everyone she called “friend.”
She touched the hearts of everyone
Her love would always show.
She’d always say “I love you”
And you could be sure it was so.
Now God has chosen to take our “Rose”
Home to heaven’s throne.
To be His Rose in heaven
Our angel has gone home.
Farewell to our darling Rose.
We love you Pam,

Suddeth says he has never been in a depot that didn’t have mice, but he doubts if they’re as friendly as those at Barber Junction.Ginger, the boldest of the five depot mice, will crawl up Suddeth’s pants
leg and eat out of his hand.Ed Suddeth And His Mice
ii Th e Pied P ip e r” O f B a rb e r Junction
The Pied Piper of Barber Junction
Depot.
He is Ed Suddeth, the second shift depot
agent at Barber Junction and like the
"Pied Piper of Hamlin" he whistles and
the mice quickly respond.
^ It all started about a year ago when
Suddeth would shoot “spit wads" or throw
peanuts at the mice in the depot. The mice
eventually got to the point where they
would grab the nut and run for their hole.
The depot is a lonely place when the
trains are not in and Barber being the only
one-man station left in Rowan County,
Suddeth began to amuse himself by
throwing small bits of food to the mice.
One night last spring, Suddeth threw a
^ peanut on the floor and several mice fought
' quite fiercely over it. It was then that he
began to imitate the squeeky whistling
sound, which the mice made while fighting
over food, to call them out of hiding.
And it worked!
When things get quiet in the little depot,
he just whistles and mice literally begin to
Story by Marlene Benson
come from everywhere. Although there is
only five depot mice, when they all
congregate in such a small room and with
their lighlening-fast movements, this
reporter could have sworn there wore al
least a dozen.
Any sudden movement by anyone in the
depot and the mice were gone in a flash.
However, each and every time Suddeth
whistled, they always returned.
He can even whistle one of them right up
his pants leg and into his hand where she
feeds on peanuts broken into tiny pieces.
He breaks them into tiny pieces so they
won't grab it and run back into their hole.
This particular mouse, he calls
"Ginger", a name given her by his 13-year-
ojd twin sons. Suddeth isn’t absolutely sure
Ginger is a female but he thinks this is true
because “she has a shorter tail and
because she likes me,"
Ginger is the only mouse that will come
in direct contact with him and although she
won't allow him to pick her up, he can just
whistle and she’ll run up his pants-leg and
eat out of hand whenever he wants her to.
Photos Inf James Barringer
From a cooler, Suddeth runs water on the floor for the mice to drink.
The mice have a little hole in the wall, but when Suddeth whistles,
they come from all over the room.
Suddeth ways the reason for Ginger’s
t)oldness could possibly be because he once
rescued her from a trash can in which she
was trapped. He put his hand in the can
and allowed her to run up his arm lo free
herself.
The mice at the depot now, he says are
some of the second or possibly third
generation since he began feeding them.
At one time there were several cats around
(he place and the mice all disappeared,
with the exception of one which he thinks
was a male. “He apparently picked up a
mate somewhere and now we have five.”
He told of one mouse who only had one
eye. It would sit up on the desk and beg for
food, however, it eventually got caught in
the drawer and was no longer with them.
Suddeth shows a liitle concern over the
future welfare of the mice because they
will soon be moving into a new station,
which is now under construction. The old
depot, built in 1900, will either be torn down
or sold to an individual and moved away.
He would like very much to have it
himself but his home in Cleveland has a
D A V I E
Feat 11 res - in
railroad tressel on both sides making it
impossible to get near it with such a big
load.
Suddeth pretends to be interested only in
the depot, where he has worked for the past
2H-years, but one can easily detect his
concern for the mice.
He says he plans to catch Ginger for his
twins and the rest of them belong to
Southern Railway. "Whoever gets the old
depot will get the mice - - - fringe benefits."
“We can’t move them," he said jokingly,
"the new station is so small there won’t bo
room for them."
December 12^ 1974
"There’s one thing everyone should
know," Suddeth added, "I'm not the only
“kook" around here. The other fellows
feed ’em too.”
"I don’t know why the mice won’t come
to anyone else, but it’s certainly not
because of my looks," he said with a hearty
laugh.
Word has gotten around the immediate
area about Suddeth and his trained mice
and it's not unusual for someone to stop by
lo satisfy their curiosity.
Suddeth is always glad to oblige.
"Everyone at Southern Railway is
friendly," he mused, “even the mice."
. .t
Two of the mice fight over a piece of food, which has been tied to a weighted object to keep then from running away
away with it.

Ed Suddeth, depot agent at Barber Junction in Rowan County, gets u hig laugh from
watching ihe niicf fight over food. WIu-ii In- fi-t-ds them it is an entertaining act.

Disposing of Chemical Containers Is Problem

It isn't It problem that’s
easily solved.
One approach suggested
by experts is the rinse
and drain treatment. This
helps reduce the potential
hazards of “empty” pesti

really are never complete

Systematically rinsing
and draining the metal
and glass containers at
the time they are being
emptied can greatly re
duce -the hazard of ma-Macedonia Moravian News
terial that always clings
to the bottom and sides of
the container and refuses
to drain out.
First, the co ntaine r
should be allowed to drain
in a vertical position for
:10 seconds, suggests the
N ational A gricultural
Chemicals Association.
Then, the container should
be rinsed three times and
a 1 1 o \v e d to drain 30
seconds after each rinse.
The Primary Departmenl’s

New Films On Obedience Training
The dog is one ot nature’s
smartest animals. Failing to
teach it anything more than be
ing house-broken or fetching a
stick is wasting your dog's nat
ural talent.
All dogs are not only smart
but will try to do anything to
please their master. All you
have to do is show what you
want ot them. And that’s what
obedience training Is all about.
Here’s one good way to learn how to train your dog. Milo and
Margaret Pearsall, nationally
known expert trainers, have
made a series ot five 15-minute
films entitled "Dog Obedience Training." They show how you
can do it.
The films are Ifi mm. full color/sound. They range from
puppy training on up through
advanced training t o r AKC
competition. This film series is available to groups ou loan without charge, courtesy ot ALPO.
Utility Dog Training Film
The Puppy, Novice and Open
training films were reveiwed in
my previous columns. Here
are some brief notes on the fourth film ’s topic. Utility Dog Obedience Training.
The Utility trained dog is a working partner ot his owner;
e.g., retrieving articles through
scent discrimination, on com
mand.
For some events in Utility
C la s s competition at dog
shows, the articles are behind
barriers which the dog must
Jump to reach and retrieve
them. We see that in the Aim’s opening. It’s exciting. The dogs
are eager; and all have loving
masters who have taken the
time and patience to t r a i n them.
In this film, you see the Pearsalls working with dogs and training aids, demonstrat
ing the lessons step by step
with excellent photography.
Doberman Pinscher
You le a r n about directed jumping training, making and working with s c e n t articles, teaching signals, developing a
trainer’s footwork, and so on.
Sometimes the camera shows
how the training action looks
from the dog’s angle — and
that helps your understanding
as a teacher.
Obtaining the Films

A Common Complaint
More roughage and bulk in
the diet through the use of fruit,
vegetables and cereals has long
been known as an effective
remedy for a common com-
plaint-constipation.
Along with drinking more
water, the increased use of
these foods which contain in-
digeftible fibers will relieve
constipation in the great
majority of cases.
It is important to recognize,
however, that constipation is a
symptom which may have
many causes. If the difficulty
persists, it is advisable to see a
doctor.
Having eliminated the
possibility of an abnormal
condition of the bowel, follow
these suggestions from "You
and Your Health," edited by
Harold Shryock, M.D., and
Hubert 0. Swartout, M.D., Dr.
P.H
1. Eat an abundance of fruit
and vegetables, both fresh and
cooked.
2. Drink eight glasses of f luid-
-chiefly waler and fruit juices-
every day.
3. Establish regular daily
toilet habits with one visit
preferably soon after breakfast-
-whelher you feel like having a
bowel movement or not. Also go
immediately at any other time
when you feel the urge.
•1. Take half an hour lo an hour
of outdoor exercise daily. The
exercise, including running or
walking, should be vigorous
enough to cause at least mild
perspiration. When impossible
to go outdoors for an hour or so,
exercise in the house with a
window open.
5 Three limes a day, lake two
tablespoons of powdered
breuer's yeasi stirred into a
glass of tomato juice or but
termilk. This usually will nol
have to be continued more than
a week.
An interesting footnote to
suggestion No. l is a recent
report in the Journal of the
.Xnirrican .Medical .\tsociation
that increased use of fruit,
vegetable, and cereal fibers
reduces the risk of intestinal

No one knows for certain
whether hunters in North
Carolina will ever have an
opportunity to hunt the Greater
Snow Goose, but there are some
compelling arguments for it.
"Aerial surveys showed that
in 1973, over 95,000 snow geese
wintered in North Carolina,
principally in the Currituck
Sound and Pea Island areas,"
says Dick Hamilton, Chief of
the North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Com m ission's
Division of Game.
“The snow goose population
in the Atlantic Flyway is higher
now than it has ever been in this
century,” says Hamilton.
"Since the early 1900’s when the
Atlantic Flyway population of
greater snow geese was at a Ic’a’
geese wintering in North
Carolina for every Canada
goose."
A recent report from the St.
Lawrence River staging
grounds in Canada ind icates
that some 135,000 snow geese
have left and are heading south
for the winter.
Those who know little about
waterfowl biology might be
quick to suggest that the snow
goose population is large and
growing because these birds are
not hunted, but this is not true.
Actually, snow geese are
hunted in their northern range-
the daily limit is five in the St.
Lawrence area. Also, it is
significant to point out that the
present population of Canada
geese is the largest in the recent
history of the Atlantic Flyway,
and yet these birds have
traditionally been hunted over
the years.
However, the Canada goose
has changed his feeding habits
and now most of these birds
winter in the DelMarVa
peninsula where local grain
farming practices attract them.
There is currently a three-bird
per day limit on Canadas in
Maryland, and yet the Canada
goose population is at an all-
time high. For years, the
Canadas came farther south to
North Carolina, but only a
remnant flock winters in the
state now. The abundance of
food and mild winters in the
Chesapeake Bay area gives
them no incentive to fly farther
south.
Why is the Atlantic Flyway
population of geese so high,
despite legal hunting for
Canadas?
"It’s a classic example of the
power of game management
programs supported by money
from hunters,” says Hamilton.
"Money paid by sportsmen for
the Migratory Bird Hunting
Stamp finances the establish
ment of special refuges,
programs to improve breeding
grounds, research and
regulation. These programs
have been very successful and
goose populations have
responded.
“ Bui while the same
programs that helped the
Canada goose have also helped
the snow goose, the hunters are
not allowed to reap any of the
benefits of their money and
work when it comes to hunting
the snow goose. The snow goose
is still protected despite his
relative abundance.
"It really isn’t fair to ask
sportsmen to fool the bill for
looking after these species if
they are not allowed some
opportunity to hunt them under
carefully controlled
regulations,” says Hamilton.
Hamilton is quick to point out
that the establishment of some
sort of open hunting season on
snow geese in North Carolina
would not adversely affect the
snow goose population.
"It can be regulated so as not
to decrease the overall
population," says Hamilton.
“Look at the Canada goose.
Hunters are allowed to take the
annual surplus and the Canada
goose population remains high
and is increasing.”
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, which regulates
migratory hunting, has refused
a request to open a short
two week season permitting
one snow goose per day in North
Carolina. They cite probable
public opposition, but un
fortunately, it is opposition
based on ignorance of sound
biological principles.
“Hunters have a vested in
terest in the welfare of wildlife
species,” Hamilton. “They are
the last persons who would want
to see the snow goose-or any
other species-endangered, and
their money has paid for the
successful return of the snow
goose. Carefully regulated
hunting is, therefore, proper
and fair.”
There are those who say that
the snow goose is not as edible
as the larger Canada goose, but
this probably based on the fact
that the snow goose used to feed
primarily on marsh vegetation.
In more recent years, the snow
goose has also changed his
habits, and now feeds primarily
in fields, preferring a diet of
winter wheat-much to the
dismay of some farmers in
northeastern North Carolina
and southeastern Virginia.

Tommy Myers, of Rt. 12, Salisbury had a little of
beginner’s luck recently when he bought down a 10-
point buck.
"W licn I saw the large buck my mind went com
pletely blank, and I was shaking all over," Myers
said.“ I waited about five minutes after I shot and went
looking for the deer. He was in a tliicket and I wasn’t
sure I had liit him , but hadn’t seem him leave either.
TOM M Y M YE RS . , , bags 10-pointer
I found the deer about ICO feet from wlire 1 shot. I
had to drag the large buck over 100 yards, and it was the
hardest work I ha ve every done. ” he said.
Myers was hunting with a friend, Jody Peeler,
also of Rt, 12 and it was their first deer hunt.
“ I was beside a large oak tree when the big buck
walked up. It had walked right passed Peeler and he
didn’t see it," Myers said.
The buck was killed in Stanly County and weighed
200 pounds. “ I ’m going back,” Myers explained.

Despite the constitutionally proclaimed separation on
church and state, America has always been a Christian
nation.
The Puritans who landed at Massachusetts Bay in 1630
came on God’s errand into the wilderness, to establish a
Christian utopia for the world to imitate. From the
beginning religion and politics were closely intertwined
in America. In New England, New Amsterdam, and the
Southern Colonies, governments enforced the precepts of
Christian morality.
Religion, especially Protestantism, however, required
self-denial--constanl purging of the desire of the things of
this world. As thousands of immigrants poured into
America in search of material prosperity, tension
mounted between religious self-denial and worldly
success. The emotional rhythm of America thus became
Manichaean, or violently dualistic-with high elation over
its evident material progress alternation with deep guilt
over an original sin of assumed spiritual failure.
The 20th Century theologian Reinhold Niebuhr has
rightly called Americans “the children of light and the
children of darlaiess.”
Such an emotional rhythm inevitably generated
periodic religious revivals. The Great Awaiiening swept
all the colonies in 1740 as people saw themselves, in
Jonathan Edwards’ terms, “sinners in the hands of an
angry God.” They also followed Edwards, however, in
the fervent expectation that after its purification
American would receive Christ himself in a second
coming. Millennialism thus became an important strain
of American thought. Even the Revolution was seen in
these terms: It was protest of God-fearing people against
a corrupt King and his profligate ministers and agents on
both sides of the Atlantic. The success of the new
republican nation meant to many the beginning of an
earthly millennium.
Over and over again Americans reminded themselves
of the necessity for renewing their virtue. In 1801 at Cane
Ridge, Kentucl«y, the first of a series of massive western
revivals tooit place. For days, preachers, white and
biacit, exhorted the backwoods pioneers to purge
themselves of sin and maite ready for the Lord. The
people responded with profound emotionalism-falling
into trances, rolling on the ground, jerking in convulsions,
even barking like dogs to purge their guilt. The Second
Great Awakening spread into New England, splitting
congregations asunder. Hellfire preachers rained so
much brimstone down on western New York that it came
to be called “the Burned-Over District.” Amidst this time
of religious fervor, one day in 1826 at Mount Cummorah,
young Joseph Smith had visions of agnels and golden
tablets. He went on to found the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints, and Mormonism became America’s
largest utopian religious community.
Fundamentalism and politics went hand in hand in
America from the Jeffersonian “revolution” of 1800 to the
Populist Party crusades of the 1890s. In the Manichaean
view, political events were seen as part of the continuing
struggle between forces of good and of evil. In 1824, for
example, the West produced a “purified” hero. Old
Hickory Andrew Jackson, who aimed to take the country
back to an older, piu'er time when the yeoman and the
honest mechanic were the backbone of the country, when
wages were hard coin and the eastern financier did not
manipulate the country. Jackson’s "w ar” on the
“Monster Bank”-the Second Bank of the United States-
dramatized his drive for a political and economic
purification that matched the holy crusades of the
backwoods preachers. Old Hickory’s political campaigns
and the years of his presidency were, in his mind, “wars”
of cultural liberation.
“The Bank is trying to kill me,” Jackson once raged,
“but I will kill it, sir, kill it dead.”
This view of a struggle between the forces of light and
the forces of darkness persisted all through the
administrations of Jackson and Van Buren, Tyler and
Polk. By the 1840s religious revivalism had fanned out
into broad areas of secular reform-peace movements,
temperance, women’s rights and, most of all, anti
slavery. A growing army of abolitionists cannonaded the
South with moral grapeshot. In New England Lyman
Beecher, Wendell Phillips, Theodore Parker and William
Lloyd Garrison lashed the consciences of dormant
Puritans into life until fundamentalist and Unitarian
alike joined in a great crusade against the moral evil of
slavery. The South replied in kind.
While a hundred southern preachers cited biblical
justification for slavery, George Fitzhugh, a canny
Virginian, labeled the industrial North decidedly un-

some of the problems of early America, problems that found religious self-denial often in con
flict with the zest for worldly success.
Christian in its callous exploitation of the factory
workers. Northern entrepreneurs were "Cannibals all.”
Thus the two sections built up evil stereotypes of one
another. Manichaean fervor, riding the crest of guilt-
ridden Christian emotions that underlay the very basis of
the Republic, heightened all political conflict and split the
culture into Civil War. In a conflict seen as a religious
crusade, compromise proved to be impossible: A
fundamental issue of morality stood between the two
sections. Julia Ward Howe perhaps best caught the sense
of the age:
“Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the
Lord: He is trampling out the vintage where tlie grapes of
wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of
his terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on.”
No war in American history so clearly marched to (he
rhythms of the battle hymn-whether “ Maryland! My
Maryland!” or “Three Hundred Thousand More.” "We
are coming. Father Abraham,” sang the Union soldiers
while the dour Presbyterian genius Stonewall Jackson
prayed their Confederate opponents into battle. Bull Run,
Chickanauga, Fredericiisburg, Missionary Ridge,
Antietam, Shiloh, Chanceiiorsville, Gettysbury anti
Appomattox seemed to take on Biblical significance
comparable to the campaigns of Moses, Joshua and the
Israelites. The Civil War was Apocalypse and perhaps
millennium.
When Abraham Lincoln spoke at Gettysburg of “This
nation under God,” he had tehind him a thousand years
of Christian typology that made “the brothers’ war”
seem a symbol of all mankind’s history since the days
when Cain first slew Abel. America’s moral utopia was
being grievously tested. Unfortunately it would not be the
last time.
Religion and politics intertwined not only domestically
in America but on the international scene as well.
Publicists like Richard Hakluyt and Samuel Purchas had
pictured the British colonization of North America as a
struggle against “anti-Christ” on behalf of the
unconverted heathen. Even the vast imperial struggle of
the French and Indian War had religious significance for
many.
With the birth of the Republic, the Founding Fathers
believed it to t>e America’s duty to spread liberty,
republican institutions, and Protestant Christianity
across the continent. This sense of mission was at first a
benign sentiment, but by the 1840s fear of British power in
North America caused a new stridency: first “Fifty-four,
forty or fight,” then that grandiose, slogan, “Manifest
Destiny,” made their appearance. “Manifest Destiny”
meant that God had always intended North and possibly
even Central America to be United States territory. The
subversion of Texas in 1836, the capture of California, and
the invasion of Mexico in 1846-7 were simply the working
out of His divine plan. Behind the conflict with Mexico lay
not only a real fear of British influence and power, but
also the ancient struggle between Protestantism and
N.C. Medicaid Has Skyrocketed In Costs
by Jim Burns
North Carolina’s Medicaid
program which provides health
care for the poor has
skyrocketed in costs since it
began in 1970.
The cost of the program for
fiscal year 1970-71, the first full
year ot operation was only $93.9
million. This past 1973-74 fiscal
year costs spiraled to $139.4
million, a 48 per cent increase in
three years. The amount
budgeted for fiscal year 1974-75
is a whooping $182.5 millmn.
Much of the cost increase is
due to increased services
provided and an increase in the
number of people receiving
these sorvices. However, in
flationary pr ice increases have
also played a significant role.
An example of cost increase
for health services over the
tiiree year period is in inpatient
hospital services. Hospitals
receive the largest share of
Medicaid funds, this past fiscal
year $41.3 million was paid lo
liospitals. The average cost in
1970-71 for a days hospital
service amounted to $37.11. In
1973-74 a day in the hospital for
North Carolina’s poor cost the
Medicaid program $74.18.
This is a 100 percent in
crease in three years. Current
cost per day of hospital ser
vices in $83.58. Other health
services covered by Medicaid
have increased in cost but not in
proportion to hospital inpatient
care.
After hospitals, nursing
homes received the largest
amount of funds. In 1973-74
nursing homes were paid $23
million, pharmacies $19.7
million, and physicians $16.9
million.
Medicaid is administered by
county social services depart
ments and funded from all three
levels of government paying the
largest share. Of the total $139.4
spent in 1973-74, the federal
siiare was $97 million, stale
$;t6 4 million and counties $6
million.
Medicaid provides North
Carolina's poor with one of the
most comprehensive health
care programs in the country.
All people receiving public
assistance and Supplemental
Security Income are eligible.
Other elderly or disabled in
dividuals and families with only
one or no able-bodied parents
who have income too Itigh to
quality for public assistance or
Supplemental Security Income,
but not enough to pay expensive
medical bills, are also eligible.
These arc called the
"medically needy.”

Catholicism-between white men and brown men less
favored by God.Long after Mexico lay prostrate, Protestant messiahs
like the evangelist Josiah Strong still preached the
predestined triumph of Anglo-Saxon Protestants-“Ours
is the elect nation for the age to come. We are the chosen
people.” His book, “Our Country” (1885) helped to create
the moral climate for a new age of American imperialism
in the Caribbean, the mid-Pacific and the Far East. The
climax of this divinely inspired sense of mission was, of
course, the Spanish-American War of 1898, in which the
United States gained a global empire and, like Britain, its
Anglo-Saxon cousin, assumed “the white man’s burden.”
The war itself was fought, at least in part, for
hum anitarian reasons. Behind the hum anitarian
sentiments lay a sense of America’s religious, moral and
cultural superiority. Only the United States could bring
humanizing Christian civilization to these outposts of
heathen darkness.
This attitude was symbolized in President William
McKinley’s explanation to a group of visiting clergymen
of how he decided to keep the Philippines;
“I walked the floor of the White House night after night
until midnight; . . .1 went down on my knees and prayed
Almighty God for light and guidance more than one night.
And one night late it came to me this way-I don’t know
how it was, but it came:
“ (1) That we could not give them back to Spain-that
would be cowardly and dishonorable; (2) that we could
not turn them over to France or Germany-our
commercial rivals in the Orient-that would be bad
business and discreditable; (3) that we could not leave
them lo themselves-they were unfit for self-government-
-and they would soon have anarchy and misrule over
there worse than Spain’s was; and (4) that there was
nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to
educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and
Christianize them, and by God’s grace do the best we
could by them, as our fellowmen for whom Christ also
died. And I went to bed, and to sleep, and slept soundly.”
Thus as its Christian duty America acquired a Pacific
empire.
A generation later another devout president,
Woodrow Wilson, led Americans in a crusade for world
peace that somehow never came about. By the mid
twentieth century, after several more wars, Americans
have been left to wonder whether they have indeed been
chosen, whether they are, after all, “the children of
light”-or “the children of darkness.”

Water witching or divining
continues to strike a responsive
chord in Koik-Ways readers.
Letters, both of a relating and
inquiring nature, in goodly
number have found their way to
Box 376,
A particularly interesting
letter from Erwin D. Stephens,
of Charlotte. North Carolina,
relates his own experience with
divining and reveals a con
siderable amount of research in
this folk practice,
“I was spending a couple of
weeks at Upthar just west of
Boone in the summer of 1973, I
had a couple of adjoining lots on
which 1 wanted to find water. 1
had been interested in water
divining since 1 was a teenager.
1 learned the Dave Hodges of
Boone could divine water with a
forked stick. He came one af
ternoon and within a few steps
the forked stick turned down
ward with considerable force. 1
told him to let me try it. Holding
the forked stick with a little
tension, thumb outward and
hands upward, I made a
few steps and suddenly at the
same spot I felt the downward
pull I cut a new fork and at one
pl.ici- Ihe pull was so strong that
the bark slipped down on one end
of the stick.My friend from Yanceyville
was al his adjoining place, so I
instructed him on holding the
slick and he felt the same
downward pull at the very
same spots as I and Dave
Hodges. His daughter, an artist,
could feel nothing. Then I in
structed her to hold the left end
of Ihe .stick and I held the right
end and placed my left arm on her
shoulder. When we came to the
same spots the rod exerted its
downward pull. We ex
perimented and found the same
results; alone she could feel
nothing, but with her father or
me holding one end, the pull
came with considerable force.
Later we found that some
persons could feel a slight pull
while others could feel nothing
and others felt a strong pull.
Dave Hodges and the other
experimenting, followed up by
later experiments at other
places, are convinced that one
of each five persons can feel this
hydrokinetic action.
"Many years ago historical
novelist, Kenneth Roberts,
wrote a book on water divining
in Maine, for he firmly believed
in the art. The Russian scien
tists have designed metal
diviners a little more
sophisticated than the forked
stick, no batteries or elec
tronics, and are locating water
in various areas of Siberia,
along with metal deposits.
Rivers don not affect the in
struments except near the
banks.
“Any kind of forked stick will
operate in • the hands of the
person gifted with the ability. I
have found a coat hanger, with
the horizontal bar removed,
very effective, also a stiff wire
bent so that slight tension can
t>e attained. Research indicates
the Egyptians were water
diviners several thousand
years ago.
“I became interested in this
divining when during my
boyhood a neighbor dug a well
40 feet deep and found only dry
dirt. He got a water diviner who
told him to dig about ten feet
away from the dry hole. He did
and at 20 feet found a supply of
water which has been ample for
the past 50 years.
“None of the folks I know who
have the gift will predict (h^
amount of water nor how deep
in the ground, although I have |
heard of water diviners who do
estimate the depth and flow. A l
cottagc adjoining Ihe one II
mentioned at Boone has a welll
found by a diviner and this welll
furnished four families,!
although it is 200 feet at lpast|
above the level of Boone.
"I don’t think the commonl
belief that water divining is a|
folk superstition is valid. I am i
convinced a great many people,!
unknown to themselves, have!
the gift of hydrokinesis, just asl
some have a similar gift in|
psychokinesis, which is now
being admitted by the scientific
community.” _

Fireplace Safety Tips Are Issued
As wintry weather and fuel
conservation bring fireplaces
into increasing popularity, Ihe
U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission reminds con
sumers that more than 6,000
children and adults required
hospital emergency room
treatment last year for injuries
associated with fireplaces and
fireplace equipment.
Children under five years old
sustained 65 percent of the
injuries reported to the Com
mission; about 15 percent of the
, injured were between five and
r ten years old. Although most
injuries involved lacerations,
five percent were burns which
frequently are among the most
painful and long lasting in
juries.
Injury reports in Commission
files record cases in which
children's nightclothes ignited
when they stood too close to an
open fireplace; a student’s
brushed denim jeans ignited
while she was warming her legs
near a fireplace with gas
■ ■fireplace logs; adults and
I ‘ teenagers received severe
burns when gasoline or other
liquid fuel was mistakenly
poured on fires in attempts to
rekindle them.
A less obvious hazard
resulted in injuries for at least
two families who were over
come by carbon monoxide or
other toxic fumes. One family
tried to burn charcoal in the
fireplace and the other had
accidentally thrown some
polystyrene foam packaging
onto the fire.
The National Fire Protection
Association estimates that
there will be 14,000 house fires
this year started by fireplaces.
Major causes of these fires
include overloading the fire,
damage to the fireplace such as
missing bricks, obstructed
flues, ignition of nearby com
bustibles, and flying sparks.
Factory made built-in metal
fireplaces that were overloaded
with fuel or improperly installed
were associated with a number
of fires last year.
After 15 to 20 fires in the same
county were traced to this style
fireplace, one Fire Chief urged
the use of “small romantic
fires” rather than roaring
blazes that could cause the
fireplace to overheat over a
period of time and ignite nearby
materials.
For the safer enjoyment of
the nation’s 22 million
fireplaces, the Commission
recommends the following
safety precautions:
1. Be sure the fireplace was
constructed for actual use, not
just for decoration. Inspect it to
be sure that it has adequate
protective linings and smoke
ducts and that the chimney is
1 clear and in good repair.
2. If installing a factory-made
fireplace, insure that it Is not
near any combustible materials
and has adequate flame and
I heat barriers.
3. Open the damper before
I lighting the fire and keep it o|«n
until the ashes are cool. This
will avert the build-up of I poisonous gases, especially
I while the family Is sleeping.
4. Never use gasoline,
I charcoal lighter or other fuel to
I light or relight a fire because
the vapors can explode. Never
I keep flammable fuels near a fire
Vapors can travel the length ot
la room and explode.
5. Do not use coal or charcoal
I in a fireplace because of Ihe
I danger of carbon monoxide I build-up It is not a good idea to
■ burn trash or wrappint^s In
I fireplace fires bei ause
I polystyrene foam and other I coated materials l aii generate
[deadly fumes. Klyin(> paper
lenibers could also ijjnitc the I roof.
6 Do not treat artificial logs
llike real logs .Artificial logs are
lusually made ut sawiiu.sl and
Iwax aiui have spiviai liiirriint;
||)n)p<'rlie> He sine In icaii
the instructions on the logs and
follow them carefully. Use just
one log at a time and do not add
another log until the fire is
completely out. Never add an
artificial log to a natural wood
fire that is already burning.
Wait at least two hours before
adding an artificial log to a
natural log fire because it could
cause a flare-up.
Do not poke artificial logs
because the flaming wax could
stick to the poker and drop onto
the floor or carpet. Poking a log
could also cause a flare-up.
7. Home rolled newspaper
logs should never be soaked in
flammable fuels of any kind
because of the severe danger of
explosion. Soaking the
newspaper in water either
before rolling or during rolling
removes the clay content and
will provide a better burning
log. Then, stack the logs on end
and let them dry for two weeks
in the basement. When lighting
the newspaper logs., use kin
dling just as you would for a
regular fire.
8. Do not overload the
fireplace. Large fires can lead
to overheating of wall or roof
materials, particularly if the
fireplace is constructed of metal.
9. Always use a screen
around the fireplace to keep
sparks from flying out and to
protect children and adults
from accidental clothing
ignition.
10. Warn children about the
danger of fire. Do not let them
play with fire.
11. Keep flam m able
materials such as carpets,
pillows, furniture or papers
away from the fireplace area.
Be sure the Christmas tree is
not close enough to be ignited by
a spark. Be especially careful
of accidentally igniting holiday
wrapping papers.
12. Make sure that the fire is
out completely before retiring
for the night or when leaving the
house.

Studies show that the average American family spends
about 10 to II percent of its income on clothing.
With prices rising year after year on suits, jackets, shirts,
slacks, sports clothes, dresses, skirts, blouses, shoes and
stockings, virtually the only way you can consistently
deposit money in a savings account is to practice day-to-day
thrift in your clothing and other household expenditures.
As a service to consumers, I have collected a group of
suggestions on money-saving ideas in the area o f clothing.
Tliey are ideas which may help you achieve your savings
goal.
Tlie t'lrst thing to do is keep your eyes open for “ Reduced
for Clearance Sales.” Often the savings In m en’s, wom en’s
and children’.s clothcs can run as high as 50 to 75 percent.
Same thing goes for semi-annual shoe sales. They are
usually held in January and July. You can often save up to
50 percent.
Here’s another tip! Good quality pemianent press dou
ble-knit slacks may cost you a little more but In the long
run, they will save you pressing bills.
And wash-and-wear men's shirts may cost as much as S2
more than similar cotton shirts. But if you can save .?S
cents every time you do them at home, instead of sending
them to the laundry, you’ll be way aliead in the long run.
And when you are in a buying m ood, remember that a
S20 woman’s skirt which can be waslied and ironed easily
at home is a better long term buy than a S I5 skirt that
must be dry-cleaned and pressed professionally.
Now when you are purchasing women’s stockings or m en’s
socks get them in the same color and grade. Then, as one
stocking runs, or a sock develops a hole, you can make new
matching pairs. Y o u ’ll save time, too, matching pairs after
laundering.
More advicc on buying! Always avoid suits, jackets and
slacks that have a glossy appearance when new. They will
soon develop a "shine" and give you a shabby look.
For the businessman who wants to make a good appear
ance in an office day after day, just remember that sliirts
and ties help to pul variety in a m an’s wardrobe. If you
wear Ihe same suit with a blue shirl one day, a striped shirt
the next time, with a different colored lie each time, you
create the impression of three different suits.
Now a word to wives about men's clothing. D on’t discard
y cuir husband’s shirts when cuffs become worn or frazzled.
Cut them down to become short-sleeved shirts. Leave room
tor a neat hem.
You probably know this already, but 1 want to remind
you never to apply cologne or deodorant directly to
cloilung. It can seriously damage some fabrics.
If you will follow the above suggestions day after day, 1
would estimate that you could very easily save several
luindieU dollais a > eai on your lanuly's clothing bills.

skiing for the 1974-75 season.
Opening dates vary with each
resort, but the general rule is
that all are shooting for an,

what water is to swimmers.
Appalachian Ski Mountain at
Blowing Rock has added a new

season. A "snow carpel" or
artificial slope covering will
offer many of the properties of
real snow. Appalachian will
again feature the Frcnch-Swiss

Beech Mountain at Banner
Elk has added a new 800-foot
immediate slope, serviced by a
pony lift, and a new sledding
slope, complete with rental
sleds.

Maggie Valley, North
Carolina’s first ski area, is
shooting for a December 1,'ith
opening date, but weather could
open the slopes as early as
December 1.
High Meadows at Roaring
Gap will offer weekend skiing.
Should weather permit, night
skiing could be offered during
the week from 6-10 p.m. This,
however, is subject to the
weather.
Hounds Ears, near Boone,
will ski mostly members and
lodge guests this year. Minor
changcs have been made in this
operation.
Sapphire Valley at Sapphire
will follow the same operation
procedure it had last year and
will only open when there is
sufficient natural snow.
Seven Devils at Boone will
offer skiing this year, but only
on weekends. This area has five
slopes.
Sugar Mountain at Banner

It's been said that a dog's
bark is worse than his bite - but
probably not by someone who
has just been bitten by a dog. A
biting dog is obviously a public
nuisance, and it also can be a
public health hazard, as well.
If you’re the owner of a dog
tiiat has bitten someone, you
may be surprised to learn that
in many communities your pel
can legally be impounded and
examined for weeks or months
if .vou have no proof of an up-to-
date rabies vaccination. There
is a good reason for this : rabies
is nearly always fatal in man.
unless a series of pai nful in
jections is administered before
symptoms of the disease ap
pear.Fortunately for the human
victim, Ihe rabies virus is slow
acting. It must travel from the
wound site through the nervous
system and up into Ihe brain lo
be fatal. This delay gives time
for a series of injections after
the bile to combat the disease.
The injections are considered a
last resort, since they are
painful and may be ac
companied by severe side
reactions.
Rabies also is usually fatal in
unvaccinated animal victims.
Symptoms in animals are slow
to develop sometimes requiring
an incubation period of several
months. When symptoms do
appear in an animal, they often
take the form of a change in
normal behavior. Friendly
aminals become aggressive.
Timid animals become bold. In
some cases, animals become
furious; they snap and bite
constantly. They may pass into
a paralytic or dumb state.
Finally, they die.
While great progress has been
made in protecting the nation’s
32.6 million dogs from rabies,
very few of our 22 million cats
have protection. Owners forget
that cats are hunters and are
often exposed to animals that
can carry rabies. Even if a cat
spends most of its life indoors, it
should be vaccinated against
the disease.
Vaccination of pets is in
creasing in importance as Ihe
number of pets and pet bites
increases. Last year in New
York City, there were more
than 38,300 reported cases of
dog bites, a jump of 43 percent
over eight years. Luckily, very
few of these cases involved
rabid dogs, but the fear and
trouble created by the un
certainty of the rabies status of
these animals was undoubtedly
considerable.
Some countries are totally
free of rabies, but Ihe United
States still reports several
hundred cases each year. You
can help speed the day when
this country will also be free of
this terrible disease by giving
your cat as well as your dog
regular vaccinations and
booster shots.
If your dog is protected
against rabies, and is a frequent
biter besides, try to find the
reason for his '‘antisocial"
iK'havior, Some of the more
common explanations are:
-Fear, Some dogs will bite or
nip when they are frightened.
Caution friends or children
about approaching this type of
|K'I; it may bite as a response lo
even friendly advances,
-Territorial defense. If you
expect your dog to defend your
home and property, don't be
surprised if he biles a mailman
or an unfamilar guest. He can't
always tell the difference
between an intruder and a
friend. Dogs will also protect
their own toys and food;
children should not approach a
dog wliile it is eating
-Over-confinement, Kept
penned up for hours, some dogs
will read by snapping when
finally released because they
fear being j)enned uj) again

Oriental Ideas Perk Up
Meal for Dinner Guests
Mr. and Mrs. Bill SeamonGolden Wedding Anniversary Is Observed December 8th
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Seamon of
Route 1, Mocksville observed
their Golden Wedding an
niversary on Sunday,
December 8, from two until four
o’clock in the afternoon at their
home. Hosts were the couple’s
children, Krnest Seamon, J.C.
Seamon, Mrs. Jack Cartner,
Jim Seamon, all of Route 1, and
Mrs. Harvey Snider of
Lexington and Mrs. Jerry
Lowtharpc of Statesville.
The home was decorated
throughout with festive greens,
gold ornaments and gold
candles. The linen-covered
refreshment table was centered
with an arrangement of
greenery and candles.
The guests were greeted by
Mrs, Jim Dwiggings, the
couple’s granddaughter.
Assisting in serving punch,
wedding cake, nuts, and mints
were granddaughters Mrs.
David Steel, Miss Diane Gart
ner, Miss Kazann Seamon and
Mrs. Jerry Smith of Lexington,
Mrs. Jim Seamon and Mrs. J.C.
Seamon.
Misses Louise and Loretta
Lowtharpc and Latey
Lowtharpe opened the
honoree's gifts.
Goodbyes were said to Mrs.
Ernest Seamon.
Among the 150 guests who
called during the appointed
hours from out-of-town were
Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Hoover,
Mr. and Mrs. Blake Hoover and
Mr, and Mrs. Wesley Johnson
of Statesville and Mr, and Mrs,
Dewey Wyke of Winston-Salem.

R A LE IG H — If you want
to furnish your house in
a unique way, decorate
the eclectic way,
“Eclectic” is the word
used to describe today’s
carefree mode of decor,
explains Mrs, Edith Mc-
Glamery, extension house
furnishings specialist,
North Carolina State U ni
versity.
No longer do all end
tables have to match, nor
do all woods have to be
the same, the specialist
observes. Old furniture
can blend right in with
the new.
Eclectic decorating is
truly "doing your own
thing,” Mrs. McGlamery
adds. It’s a m atter of mix
and match.
Contemporary furniture
blends well with Shaker
styles; both have simple,
straight lines. O r try
mixing the round, bulki
ness of late Victorian fu r
niture with Contempor
ary styles.
The boxes, squares and
metal hardware of the
Campaign look comple
ment Oriental furniture.
Try m ixing Campaign
with Victorian, wicker or
straight-lined styles, the
specialist suggests.
Experiment with to
day’s carefree decorating
ideas. If you already have
a variety of furniture
items— eclectric decor can
be the least expensive way
to go.

Cooking w ith a wok

small base, allow ing foods
to be quickly stir-fried.
As more ingredients are
added, cooked foods are
whisked up the wide, slop
ing sides where they’ll
stay warm but won’t over
cook.
Designed to meet the
needs of Oriental cookery,
the versatile wok is shap
ed like a shallow salad
bowl with handles. It sits
on a large metal collar or
ring which holds it steady
above a burner on a gas
or electric range. The col
lar has a ring of holes for
ventilation.
And now an electric
wok is available, the spe
cialist adds. It comes with
self-supporting legs and
is designed for meal prep
aration at the table.
Because of its unique
shape, the wok can be
used as a skillet, sauce
pan or pot. For besides
stir-frying, the wok allows
you to steam, stew or
deep-fry ingredients.
Hot-pot cooking is also
possible with the wok.
For two people or ten,
the Oriental and now the
American cook is using
the wok to prepare a va
riety of meals.

Usually, when we refer
to container-grown plants
we have in mind hollies,
roses and other plants
grown in the conventional
metal or clay containers,
but there are many other
kinds better adapted for
what we might call out-
d 0 0 r gardening. These
range in size from small
house plant pots to large
boxes and planters. There
are also wide variations
in the kinds of materials
from which they are made
— wood, glass, clay, plas

iron, copper and brass.

A single attractive
plant in a suitable con
tainer and placed at a
doorway, on a patio, porch
or balcony is enough to
start a pot garden. You
can also find suitable sites
in the yard, along a wall,
or on the stump of a tree
that has been removed.
This gardening in pots
is becoming increasingly
popular both outside and
inside. It is particularly
appealing because t h e
plants can be moved about
for a change of scenery
and mood.
Pot or container gar
dening can make cities
and towns more attrac
tive and such projects are
usually sponsored by civ
ic clubs, chambers of
comniprie, garden clubs
and local governments.
Window boxes on city
buildings, plant boxes in
front of libraries a n d
courthouses, planters in
parks and public gardens,
and hanging baskets on
lamp posts.
This pot gardening can
go as far as your im agi
nation will permit. Here
are a few ideas to devel

kettle, tuberous begonias
in a brass kettle, window
boxes with geraniums and

Duke Endowment Celebrates 50th Year
North Carolina Governor
Angus W. McLean spoke like a
proplict in 1924 when James B.
Duke crealed The Duke En
dowment as an instrument to
serve the people of the
Carolinas through aid to
education, health, child care
and churches."For the next hundred years-
even longer-there will not be a
citizen of the state, young or old,
who will not feel the benign
influence of his contribution to
the great work of making North
Carolina a better slate in which
to live, “McLean declared.
Fifty years and ap
proximately $395 million later,
the Governor's prophecy has
been amply fulfilled. The Duke
philanthrophy, through the siim
total of its assistance and in
individual grants, has reached
virtually every section of the
two states.In North Carolina, for
example, funds distributed by
The Duke Endowment through
1973 amounted to the following
totals by Congressional
districts.
First $4,275,371; Second
$6,745,797.58; Third
$3,952,559.46; Fourth
$202,764,637.44 (Duke Univer
sity, a primary beneficiary, is
located in this district); Fifth
$11,743,654.95; Sixth
$4,957,132.78; Seventh
$5,1 82,83 1.32; Eighth
$6,760,133.24; Ninth
$36,252,249.54 (Davidson College
and Johnson C. Smith
University and other important
beneficiaries are in this
district); Tenth $5,190,775.07;
and Eleventh $9,753,803.32. In
addition, the districts also
participated in the overall
distribution of $9,753,803.32. In
addition, the districts also
participated in the overall
distribution of $9,501,174 for
rural United Methodist chur
ches and for aid to retired
ministers and their families.
In sim ilar manner, in
stitutions and programs in the
South Carolina Congressional
districts have received the
following total amounts through 1973.
First $5,401,616.76; Second
$6,939,285.3 0; Third
$4.349,932.80; Fourth
$22,907,789.37 (Furman
University is in this district);
Fifth $5,449,254.46; and Sixth $3,736,647.09.

South Carolina Editors:
Figures on grants to institutions
in your locality may be inserted

The Duke Endowment marks
its 50th birthday (today) on
December 8. It was on that day
in the year 1924 that Mr. Duke
announced at a news conference
in Charlotte his intention to use
for charitable purposes the
major share of the fortune he
accumulated in the tobacco and
electric power industries. He
limited the scope of his
philanthropy to the geographic
area of the Carolinas and to
specific named beneficiaries,

make provision in some '
measure for the needs of
mankind along physical, mental
and spiritual lines, largely
confining the benefactions to
those sections served by these

might have extended this aid to
other charitable objects and to
other sections, but my opinion
is that so doing probably would
be productive of less good by

Letters To Editor
Dear Editor:
I would like to take this means
of expressing my gratitude to
Davie County Hospital for the
excellent care I received there
during my stay for major
surgery.
First, a special thanks to Dr.
Minwalla. Then, the fine group
in the operating room who find
time to visit the patients after
surgery. Then to the excellent
staff of nurses and assistants on
the floor where a patient is a
name not just a number.
And, I wish to thank our
neighbors who have done so
much and have sent so many
lovely cards.
May God bless you all.
Nolan A. Wright
Route 3
Mocksville, N.C.
Dear Editor;
It has been over a month now
since the election of November
5, 1974. To my knowledge, a
clean campaign was waged by
all candidates in that election.
However, on Monday,
November 4th, 1974, a letter was
distributed in various places
concerning one of the can
didates that, in my opinion, hit
below the belt. The candidate I
am speaking of is Sam Daywalt,
Republican candidate for
county commissioner at that
time.
In 1968 I ran for county
commissioner and one of my
opponents was Sam Daywalt. If
you remember the results of
that election, I took a good
licking and so did the rest of the
Democratic candidates in
Davie County who ran with me.
The people of Davie County
made their decision known, and
as far as I am concerned a
clean campaign was conducted
by all candidates involved.
Since 1963, Sam Daywalt has
been what I consider as a
personal fiend of mine, and I
have never known him to do
anything that would be con
sidered deterimental to his
family, his fellow employees, or
for that matter to anyone.
The contents or main subject of
the letter, if I remember
correctly, said that Sam
Daywalt was against or not for
the working man. Sam Daywalt
has been a working man, plus a
good family man, since I have
known him.
The right of a person to work,
male or female, where work is
available to that person is an
individual’s decision. Sam
Daywalt continued to work
when some of -his fellow em
ployees chose not to work. 1 do
not think his decision to con
tinue to work was to go against
his fellow employees, but to
fulfill his obligations, namely to
support his family. This is
something many people have
not done, and I cannot throw
rocks in a glass house con
cerning this point.
To Whom It May Concern:
The next time you want to write
and distribute a letter con
cerning a candidate for public
office, whether the contents of
the letter be good or bad, please
sign your name or names. By
including your name or names,
those that receive the letter will
be in a better position to
evaluate it's contents ... as
either the truthfulness or
relativeness of the subject
matter or as to the source or
causes from whom it came.
Harold M. Odom.
Dear Editor:
In reference to Mr. Rogers
letter last week:
He should of checked the town
before settling and notice the
town has no one way street.

reason of attempting loo
much." Mr. Duke wrote in the
trust indenture creating The
Endowment.
An initial gift of some $40
million started The E n
dowment, That was more than
doubled one year later at the
time of Mr, Duke's death when
liis will provided another $67
m illion for the purposes
outlined in the indenture.
At the half century milestone.
The Endowment's assets arc in
the range of $270 million. Since
its charter is in perpetuity, it
looks to a long future of service
to the area and its people.
In the 50th annual report
issued by The Endowment,
Chairman Marshall I. Pickens
noted that “ the needs of
mankind which were specified
by Mr. Duke in the fields of
higher education, health care,
child care and religion have not
diminished in their magnitude
or significance. In fact, year by
year, they have come to
demand increased attention,
knowledge, expertise and
greater funding from both the
public and private sectors."
The progress in which The
Endowment has been a partner
covers too broad a range, both
in programs and in geography,
to be adequately summarized.

week were as follows:

RALEIGH — State highway of
ficials have promised to cut the cost of
roadside rest stops as much as 30 to 35
per cent, but a legislative spending
committee is still not satisfied that this
is enough.Members of State Senator I, C,
Crawford's spending watchdog com
mittee were up in arms over the
mlllion-dollar-plus price tag they found
on each of the rest stops being built
along Interstate highways, and ordered
measures to cut back.
The money, they reasoned, could be
spent better for roads and it seemed to
the lawmakers entirely reasonable that
$250,000 to $300,000 would Ix- enough to
build a suitable rest stop,
A total of 52 rest areas, including
eight combination welcome center and
rest areas, were planned on the In
terstate system in North Carolina,
Thirty-five of those have already been
built,
A particular installation in Davie
County between Winston-Salem and
Statesville captured the attention of
Crawford's group: it cost $1,230,747.25
— plushness which angered the
legislators.
CAN CUT -State Highway Ad
ministrator Billy Rose has responded
to the committee suggestion that the
cost be trimmed, saying it "will be
possible to achieve significant cost re
ductions through modifications and-or
elimination of certain features that
were included. . .Overall initial con
struction cost savings on the order of
30-35 per cent can and will be
achlev^,’’ Rose stated.
He said rest area buildings and fix
tures can be designed less expensively;
the size of paved parking areas can be
reduced, and asphalt used rather than
concrete; reduction of landscaping,
sidewalks, picnic area, drinking foun
tains, etc., can t)e made; and reduction
in outdoor lighting can be done.
Rose also promised to include the
grading and paving in original
roadway contracts. ,Rose also promised to include the
grading and paving in original
roadway contracts.
Additionally, Rose said a study of
the 17 remaining rest areas indicates
that six of those can be eliminated, and
that further study is being made to see
if any other future rest stops can be
trimmed.
“With the elimination of the six rest
areas, the distance between rest areas.
. will average about 56 miles. . .com
pared with the aveage spacing of ap
proximately 30 miles between rest
areas nith tlie originally planned 52
rest areas," Rose said.
Still, Rose argued, it “does not ap
pear practical” to cut the cost to the
level suggested by Crawford's commit
tee; $250,000 to $300,000 each.
The original 30-mile distance
between rest areas had prompted some
legislators to suggest they could walk
that far between trips to the
bathroom,and Crawford —still piqued
with the Davie County facility —insists
that a sprawling parking lot able to
handle 400 vehicles per hour is not
needed at the aveage rest stop.
NOT ENOUGH —Crawford said he
thinks further cuts can be made, “We
don't accept this, , ,they've gone part
of the way with us, but we don't feel
this is enough, and we will look further
into it."
State Rep, Liston B, Ramsey thinks
the plushness of the rest stops is just
too much. “They're lit up like Times
Square, with floodlights. . .and they
have the air conditioning running and a
hot water tank going. “We don’t need
all that for just five minutes to go to
the bathroom," Ramsey said.
Transportation Secretary Troy
Doby concedes that the cost is high,
but noted that the lights are needed for
security, picnic tables are demanded
by local garden clubs, parking is re
quired by federal officials, the water
and sewer installations demanded by
the Environmental Protection Agnecy,
and that 90 per cent of the cost comes
from federal rather than state funds.
Still, he agrees that the money could
be used to build roads rather than rest
stops, and feels that the “only major
savings decision is whether or not to
build the rest areas" in light of the
various requirements.
The primary purpose is to provide a
bathroom, and the two buildings alone
cost $183,000 at the Davie County site.
Other costs include $730,347 for
sidewalks, driveways, parking, fenc
ing; $49,102 for lights and power;
$78,068 for sewage treatment system;
$55,760 for well water storage and
treatment: $70,383 for picnic facilities;
and $42,992 for landscaping.
Each rest stop also requires three
fulltime state employes at about $50,000
per year —a total of $2.3 million an
nually.
Local Adult To Receive Diploma Pinebrook Students Visit Plantation
After leaving the plantation,
the students went to the Nature
Science Center which included a
Nature Trail. At the Center thejf
saw live animals such as buf
falo, ducks, goats, rams, and
many types of snakes. On the
Nature Trail they saw many
types of flora and fauna. All
trees were tabled which gave
the students an idea of the many
species of trees.

November 29th included:
James L. Ermold, 31, of
Mocksville Rt. 3, suspended as
of December 12, 1974 until
December 12, 1975.
On November 15, the seventh
year students at Pinebrook
enjoyed a trip to the Chinqua-
Penn Plantation and the Nature
Science Center.
At the plantation they learned
that the Jefferson Penn family
traveled around the world
collecting artifacts and an
tiques. These are what the
students went to see.
Some things, like the golden
masks from Egypt, are
priceless, as are many things on
the plantation. The home
consists of many rooms, such as
the China Room, French Room
and the mud room. The mud
room was where the family
came in tired and dirty after
they had been riding their many
horses.
Mr. Penn was crean-ated after
death and had his ashes spread
over the plantation.

State To Aid Counties In
Alleviating Stamp Backlog
Secretary of Human
Resources David Flaherty has
announced a program to aid
counties in alleviation the
backlog of food stamp ap
plicants. The program includes
state matching funds to pay
overtime to county food stamp
workers.
"G overnor Holshouser
directed me to come up with a
plan to help our citizens par
ticularly between now and
Christmas, We went to the
county directors of social
services and this plan is a direct
result of their counsel,”
Flaherty said.
Flaherty said the matching
fund sets up $400,000 in state
money. Counties who seek to
draw on this pool will match
dollar for dollar. Then there will
be a federal match of that total.
“The state puts up a dollar, a
participating county puts up a
dollar and in turn the federal
government will match that
with two dollars,” Falherty
said. He said the state would go
ahead and pay the 75 per cent
portion and get a .later reim
bursement so that the process
won’t be held up.
'‘The county directors felt this
would be a better way than
hiring additional personnel who
would have to be trained and
‘broken in’. We would lose the
drive of trying to do something
between now and Christmas if
we waited to do that,” he said.
“One county director said his
people would work 12-14 hours
days and Saturdays to get the
job done,"Flaherty continued,
“That’s the spirit we need.”
Flaherty said that the
Governor’s Office of In
tergovernmental Relations was
asking U.S. Secretary of
Agriculture Earl Butz to waive
the restrictions requiring re
certification of food stamp
participants for 60 days, “The
Governor is involved in this
because he wants to do what he
can to help our citizens during
this economic crunch and
especially at Christmas. We
urge the counties to participate
in this program. Many of them
have asked us for help,”
F a r m T i p s
By Dr. J. W. Pou
Agricultural Specialist
Wachovia Bank & Trust Co., N.A.
In addition to the asking for
the re-certification waiver and
setting up the matching funds,
the program includes:
Urging food stamp offices to
make better use of their
existing personnel.
Ask that issuing locations
remain open every working day
instead of closing near months'
end to complete reports.
Set up satellite locations such
as volunteer fire departments
and churches.
Work with local industries to
train their employees to handle
some of the paper work when
cutbacks and layoffs occur.
Utilize staff members from
‘sister’ service agencies such as
health departments.
Make use of volunteer groups
whenever possible for tran
sportation pools, clerical help
with forms etc,
Flaherty said the money for
the state’s share of the mat
ching fund would come from a
freeze he was putting on 100 job
positions within the Department
of Human Resources.
“We’ve held several meetings
during the last few days with
county commissioners, county
social services directors,
members of the Governor’s
staff, Rev, Collins Kilburn, the
chairman of our Project Reach
Committee, and members of the
staff of the state social services
office— this is a concerted ef
fort to make a differnece in
the way many people will spend
Christmas, We have more long-
range plans in the works too,
but this is our prime concern
right now,” Flaherty con
cluded.
Davie County
Rainfall
Last Week:
1.57
It appears that 1974 will go down in the books
as a fairly good year for T ar Heel farmers who spe
cialize in crops rather than livestock.
N orth Carolina generally had a wet, cold spring
that was followed by dry weather in early summer,
bu t it was spared a m ajor drought like the one ex
perienced in the M idw est. A ugust brought abundant
rains that benefited m any crops b u t caused disease,
insect and grass problems for others, especially
cotton and peanuts.
Harvest weather in October was favorable and
prospects are m oderately favorable for most crops,
even though very few yield records will be broken
this year.
T he average yield for the state’s big flue-cured
tobacco crop is estim ated by the N . C. Crop R eport
ing Service at 2,075 pounds, down 36 pounds from
last year. Acreage harvested was larger because of
a quota increase, and total production is indicated
at 828 m illion pounds, the largest in several years.
Sm all grain crops — wheat, oats, barley and rye
— all showed yield increases, Irish potato yields
rem ained steady, and a slight increase is indicated
in per-acre o utp ut of sweet potatoes.
N o change is forecast in the soybean yield of 24
bushels per acre. B ut, as expected, a drop is fore-
.seen in peanut yields. T he 1973 crop, a record-
breaker, averaged 2,810 pounds to the acre. The
1974 forecast calls for 2,600 pounds.
The Crop R eporting Service expects a 10-bushel
drop in the per-acre corn yield, from 82 bushels to
72, B ut a boost in acreage will keep total production
at 113 m illion bushels, close to last year’s harvest
of 115 m illion.
Newly released figures show that N orth Carolina
ranks am ong the top 10 states in the production of
nearly one-half the m ajor farm com m odities grown
in the U nited States,
Based on cash receipts from com m odity sales in
1973, the T ar Heel state continues to rank far
ahead of second-place K entucky as a producer of
tobacco. It is also first in sales of sweet potatoes
and forest products.
In dollars received for com m ercially grown pea
nuts, N orth Carolina is second only to Georgia, and
in turkeys it ranks third.
In both eggs and broilers, it holds fourth place.
In apples it ranks eighth; in com , ninth; and in
both soybeans and grapes, it holds 10th place.
Last year N orth C arolina moved up into the
"B ig T en” am ong the 50 states in cash receipts from
all farm commodities. It edged out dairy-oriented
W isconsin for the No, 10 spot. A lthough the state
ranked 10th in cash receipts from all crops, it was
ISth in livestock. For hogs, its ranking was 11th,
According to the N. C, Crop Reporting Service,
T ar Heel farmers received $2,38 billion — an all
tim e record — for com m odities m arketed in 1973.
O f the total, cror-s accounted for 59 percent, and
livestock and livestock products, 41 percent, To-
bnii'o was the leading com m odity, accounting for
.■*719 m illion or 30 percent of the total.

The Holly Farms train gives a load of Davie citizens a ride while keeping them dry at the same time.
Proper Disposal Urged For Poison Containers
The beginning of the
crop season means the
beginning of the pesticide
season on North C arolina
farm s. It means a tim e
for being extremely
cautious, particularly in
disposing of pesticide
containers.
North C arolina State
U niversity extension pes
ticide specialists regard
the proper disposal of
leftover containers as
perhaps the most
Im portant of aJl the
precautions, although all
are essential to good
safety.
The empty containers
are never really empty,
the specialists explain.
They always contain
som e of the pesticide.
Even a trace can be
dangerous.
Decontaminating the
containers is virtually
im possible, therefore,
they m ust be disposed
of in a proper m anner.
Open air burning is
not acceptable because of
possible contam ination of
the air. Dum ping unused
pesticide on the surface
is prohibited. So what’s
left?
A few farm ers m aybe
near enough to a
drum reconditioning firm
which has decontam inat
ing equipment or an
approved incinerator to
justify delivery of empty
containers. But most
farm ers w ill have to bury
em pty containers, either
on the farm or in
an approved landfill
disposal area.
For burial on the
farm , select an area of
w ell drained soil away
from homes, wells and
stream s. These sites
m ust be ones that w ill
not be used In th
foreseeable future for
crops, livestock or
homes.
It is im portant to
break, puncture or crush
the container so there
w ill be no chance of some
unknowing person com ing
along and using it for any
purpose. It should be
buried at least 18 inches
below the surface.
F or burial in an
approved landfill, be sure
that the container is
crushed or rendered
com pletely useless to
anyone who m ight want
to salvage it.
Also, advise the per
son in charge of the
landfill so that he may
cover the container as
soon as possible.
Never leave pesticide
containers out in the
open. Keep them locked
up until they can be
buried properly.
Safe handling of left
over pesticide containers
is one phase of a state
wide program the
A gricultural Extension
S ervice, through NCSU
specialists and county
agents, is helping spon
sor in conjunction with
“ P roject Safeguard," a
national program .

Cook cookies thoroughly
before storing. For crisp
cookies, store in loosely covered
container. If they absorb
moisture from (he air, crisp in

Learning to read has
m eant alm ost a to tally-
new life, at least for one
Durham County home
m aker enrolled In the
Expanded N utrition Ed
ucation Program . She
is receiving instructions
from a volunteer read
ing instructor of the
Yates Baptist Associa
tion.
The proud home
m aker told M rs. M ary
Jane W hitm ore, associate
hom e economics exten
sion agent, "Shopping for
groceries is a lot easier
for m e now that I can
read,”
“ I used to have to
ask others in the grocery
store to tell me what was
on the labels and I m em
orized colors and looked
at pictures. But now
that I can read, it takes
less tim e and besides I
save m oney,” she added.
According to M rs.
W hitm ore, many other
Expanded N utrition P ro
g ram hom em akers are
being referred to the
volunteer organization
for free private help in
reading.
SPE C IA L STORAGE
There’s at least one
Johnston County couple
that believe “ nothing
should go to w aste.”
So when their old
electric range burned out,
they converted it into
kitchen storage.
The husband, who
works in a cabinet shop,
removed the suriace
units and controls from
the range and covered
the top with a piece of
discarded form ica.
The oven provides
storage space for kitchen
utensils, explains M rs.
Trudy Benson, extension
program aide in the
county’s Expanded N utri
tion Education Program .
The hom em aker?
W ell, she makes no bones
about being proud of her
“ new” cabinet, M rs.
Benson notes.
SELF DEFENSE
Extension Home
m akers Club m em bers in
Anson County are learn
ing the art of Self
Defense.
F irs t part of the pro
gram consists of safety
tips to practice when at
home, walking, driving or
riding.
The second part
includes film s showing
som e self defense
techniques such as the
p alm and knee blow; the
concluding portion con
sists of a short cross
word puzzle related to
defense tips.
Responses after the
program were varied,
says Dianne Stanley,
assistant home econom
ics extension agent. But
each woman agreed she
was m ore aware of
potential danger and had
learned valuable tips and
techniques to use in ♦
defending and protecting
herself.
SPINACH TIP
Spinach is used most as
a cooked vegetable, but it
also makes a delicious sal
ad. Most of the fresh spin
ach sold Is a crumpled leaf
or savoy type. Look for
rich, dark green color and
clean, fresh leaves with no
decay, advises Rachel Kin-
law, extension food spe
cialist, North Carolina
State University.
TIGHT LID
Snug-fitting lids on cook- '
ware hold heat in the pot
and speed up the cooking
process, thus saving ener
gy. The temperature in
side a covered pan can be
as much as 20 degrees
higher than in an open
pan, remind extension
housing specialists. North

Helleboru.s (Christmna
Rose) is thought by many
gardeners to be one of the
lovelie.st of winter flower.s.
It belongs to the Butter
cup fam ily and grows to a
height of 12-18 inches.
The leaves are large, the
flowers single and showy,
and it blooms during w in
ter and early spring.
The Hellebores are very
attractive, both in leaf
and flower, and are suit
able for a partly shaded
border or for naturalizing
in the wild garden.
We do not usually con
sider the Christmas Rose
as a cut flower because it
blooms out-of-season for
most flowering plants and
can be admired aa it
blooms during, the winter
for arrangements in the
home. If you have Helle-
boriis in your garden and
would like to try the flow
ers in arrangements, here
are some suggestions sent
in by a reader.
"I have tried repeatedly
to cut Helleborus for ar
rangements with no suc
cess. I tried taking a con
tainer of fairly hot water
(not glass as it m ight
crack in cold weather). I
cut the stems and imme
diately placed in water.
Then bring the flowers in
the hoii.se and re-cut the
stems under flowing warm
water. Then place in a
deep container of warm to
slightly hot water. Allow
to stand until the water
comes to room tempera
ture, u.sually .l-() hours.
“It is best t(i cut in tl>p
late afterncMin and allow
to stand overnight. If out
during the early part of
the day, use same proce
dure and ))lace in dim
light. The flowers may
then be arranged using
warm water in the con
tainer. They will last from
two to four days.
“A friend of mine dried
Christmas Rose flowers in
silicone powder last year:
they were like parchment
and beautiful." . . .
Crabgrass begins to
grow rapidly in lawns this
month. The time to get rid
of it is before it begins to
seed. This may be done by
either hand picking or by
using a selective herbi
cide.
Do not mow lawns too
closely now. Set the mow
er blades to cut at a
height nf two inches.
Weeds should be con
trolled wliile they are
young. Use the hoe and
cultivator frequently
enough to keep them un
der control. Mulches will
alsii help. If you use a her
bicide, be sure to follow
instructions given on the
container.

If you have cash value in your
lit'e insurance policy, you're
probably aware that you can
borrow money on it. Bui waich
out. Your estate dwindles witii
unpaid policy loans. And your
beneficiaries receive only a
portion i)t'what you wanted iheni
to have.
Tor evaniplc, John bought a
wliole life insurance policy for
S !5.000 v^■hen he was 25. Ten
years later, he decided fo add a
rec room and another bedroom to
his house. He tnnrowed part ol
the money he needed trom the
bank and the rest. $2,400. on his
ht'e insurance pohcy.
He finished the improvenients.
but somehow he never repaid the
policy loan. He let it slide.
One day John was killed while
driving to work. His insurance
anient sent in the claim tor John's
wit'e. She was counting on that
S15.0D0 lo pa> olT some debts
and support the taniil> until she
found a job. Instead, she received
less. I or the S2.40H plus inteiesi
had to be subtracted troin the
total.
Whal happened?
John needed a loan to see him
through a particular sKualU'n
Ihe insurance ci*mpan\ lent him
ihe amount equal to his cash
value al ihe specilied mteresi rate
And the collateral was ihc polu^
itselt.
It he lud tepaid tiie U>an.
iheu* would have been n->
reduction in the proceeds. John
died, however, before repaying
the loan and interest. I he sum he
owed had to be deilucted ln*m
the proceeds.
The prtneclion arul hcnt*/ii'
his bcneficiary two *>t tlu*
reasiins he bought the pt>hc\
were reduced u licn lie didn't
repay the loan. The s.inic thing
can happen to >iui.

The Star O f Bethlehem Today!
'I’lu' Throo Wise men would
ni’vor rci-ognizc Ihp Slar of
Hctlilchcm Ihis Christmas.
Bui it’s there, in plain sighl-
Ihough now fragmenlpd into the
plnncls Jupiter, Saturn, Mars,
mid Venus. A popular
astronomical theory is that two
or more of these planets ap
peared to come together in the
heavens so that they looked like
a single star to the Three Kings.
Astronomers offer this ex-
planation-among others-in the
assumption that the Slar of
Bethlehem was in fact n
genuine celestial object.
Some Biblical scholars,
however, argue that when the
Three Wise Men talked about a
star, they were actually using
the word in an allegorical
description of a spiritual ex
perience.
St. Matthew descrilied in the
Ciospel how a star guided the
Magi to the Christ child in
Bethlehem: “And behold the
star which they had seen in the
cast, went before them until it
came and stood over W’here the
child cas. And seeing the slar
they rejoiced with exceeding
joy ■"Astronomers say that the star
was really a conjunction or
coming-together ofapparent
.several planets. They point out
in that, due to changes in the
calendar since then, the birth of
Christ was really about 7 nr B B.
C . ...
Olher explanations-that the
Slar of Bethlehem might hav»
Ix-en a supernova or exploding
star, or that it was an ex-,
ceptionally bright meteor-are
discounted because none of the
many professional stargazing
astrologers of the time men
tioned any such observance.

Albert Finney stars in the title
role of "Scrooge", a film

winner Sir Alec Guinness co-
stars as the ghost of Marley,
Scrooge's former business
partner. Dame Edith Evans
portrays the ghost of Christmas
Past, and aco'aimed British
actor Kenneth More appears as
the ghost of Christmas Present.
In the story, Scrooge is a
covetous miser who is taught a
lesson in human kindness and
charity by a series of Christmas
spirits who visit him from the

Jeff and his older brother,

to be the one to answer the
phone. However, Rick assisted

Christmas legends and
Christmas folklore is
fascinating whether true or not.
There arc innumerable tales
that form the traditions of the
holiday season.Animals are prominiently
mentioned in many legends and
customs. One Christmas legend
tells of the little gray Iamb with
a longing heart to be white. It
wandered lo the dwelling of the
Holy Family, lingering at the
door. The Christ Child, seeing
the lamb, beckoned it in. He laid
his hand on its head, and it
became white as snow.
Swedes, Norwegians, and the
Swiss make it a special point lo
be extremely friendly and
hospitable on Christmas, both to
domestic pets and wild birds.
A persistent Christmas
legend is that bees hum a carol
in honor of the Christ Child. In
E;ngland, holly is placed on the
hive lo wish the bees a Merry
Christmas.

If you are cooking for
Christmas, and most all of us
do. I have a few recipes from
my collection and they are
from my antique collection of
December 1922. If you do not
wish lo try them, you may just
want to read them.
Chocolate covered pop-corn is
an easily prepared and
wholesome sweet. To make,
melt a pound of sweet chocolate
over hot water and stir in a few
kernels of popcorn at a lime
until they are thoroughly coaled
with the chocolate. Remove
with a fork. Place on waxed
paper and store in a cold place
to dry.
FRUIT DELIGHTS
Use one pound each of figs,
currants and seedless raisins,
one package dates and the
grated yellow rind of one
orange. Wash fruit carefully.
Drain, then remove su|»rfluous
moisture by folding in clean
towel. Stone Ihe dales, stem the
figs and put all fruit through a
meat chopper. Add Ihe graled
orange rind and mix all
together very Ihroughly. Form
into balls Ihe size of chocolate
creams and pul half a walnut
meat on the flattened lop of
each ball.
CANDIED ORANGE PEEL
Wash the peel of two large or
three small oranges and cut in
narrow strips. Place in a sauce
pan. Cover with water and boil
for 20 minutes. Pour off this
water and repeat twice,
allowing three boiling periods of
20 minutes each. When draining
the peel for the last time, retain
sufficient water to cover the
bottom of the sauce pan. Add
one cupful of sugar and place
over Ihe fire until a thick syrup
is formed. Allow the orange
peel to absorb this syrup. Then
spread on a plaller thickly
covered with granulated sugar.
Stire and mix with sugar and
allow to stand until cool and dry
prepared. Thus, the peel is
lender and quite good.
Peanut bulter fudge is liked
by many. To make, pul 3 cups
of granulated sugar in sauce
pan. 1 cup of peanut bulter, '-j
cup of marshmellow cream, U
cup of butler or margarine, 1
cup of water will form a soft
ball. Remove from heal. Beal
readily until cool. Then pour
Milo buttered pans. Cut into
squares. Allow to cool before
removing from the pan.

The rise in the last five years alone has
been more than fin percent, according to
'the findings of Dr. Donald T. Forman,
professor of biochemistry at Northwestern University.
Take a Davie County person weighing
I.'id pounds. The figures show that his body
coiilains Ixisic chemical elements that
would net him a princely $5.60 today if he could only market them.
That is a relativepy high price, states the

list taxes in January. The Board of
Elections will move into the magistrates
office which can be locked for storage of election records.

M rs. Veatrice Tow ell To R etire As County Tax Collector
by David Hoyle
A familiar facc in llic Davie County Courtlioiiso, Mrs. Vealricc J, Towell, will
redrc from her post as Davie Coiinly Tax
Colleelor this month.She has seen the county's property more
than triple in value I'ronuhc time ot her
Jippointment to the job in July of t»5H until
her last day on December 20th.During those 17's years, the county tax
listings grew from $28:i,fi92.n0 in the 195R-59
fiscal year lo $1,441,445.78 for the year
ending .lune .TOth, 1974.
As tax collector, Mrs. Towell has had many duties to perform, the main one
being to lake the listing of all the citizens of
the county and the amount of taxes they
owe. send them their lax notices and
collect their taxes.
•'II was a hard job in a man's world,"
Mrs. Ti.well said, recalling her first few
days on the job. "I was .scared to death."
With a young family and farm prices
t)eing low, the Towells decided it was time lo "hire mom out " So, on July R, 1958,
Mrs. Towell left the security of her role as
a farm wife and was bonded and duly
atfirmed as Davie County Tax Collector."The funniest incident I recall happened
like this," Mrs. Towell said. "I was
looking up some records for an Internal
Hevenue Agent when this man came in to
pay his tax."
“Thinking the Internal Revenue Agent to be a friend of his, he sneaked up behind
him, planted his knee firmly in his
posterior and lifted him up squarely on lop
of the counter."
Needless to say, when the IRS man turned around and was not the expected
friendly face, the fellow blurted out
something about mistaking him for a
friend and quickly made his exit deciding
to pay his tax at another time.
“I'll just take it one day at a time," Mrs.
Towell said of her retirement. She said she
Driver Injured
A car-truck accident resulted in facial
and head injuries to the driver of the car
Monday around 2:30 p.m. on I -40 near the
junction of US 64 east.
Treated and released from Davie County Hospital was Richard Pearson Smith, Jr.,
27, of Hickory who was driving a 1968
Clievrolet.
According to the investigating officer, N.
C. Highway Patrolman A. C. Stokes, (he Smith car ran into the rear of a truck
owned by J.M. Bowden, of Advance, as it
was gathering speed after pulling from the
shoulder of the interstate.
The 1966 Mack truck was being driven by Gene Hartman Poindexter, 21, of Route 3,
Advance. He was uninjured in the ac
cident.
The Chevrolet was declared a total loss
following the accident and there was $200
in damages to the truck. Smith was
charged with failure to reduce speed to avoid a collision.
A blow-out apparently caused a one-car
accident Thursday, December 12 on US
601, 6.4 miles north of Mocksville.
Involved was Rachel Apple Greeson, 56, of Asheboro, operating a 1968 Buick.
According to the investigating officer.
Trooper W. D. Grooms of the N. C. High
way Patrol, the right front tire of the
vehicle blew out and the operator lost
control and ran onto the right shoulder striking a ditch bank.
There were no charges in the accident
and the driver was uninjured. The car
received $250 in damages.
Mrs. Veatrice Towell
was looking forward to seeing more of her
husband, Reid, a retired farmer.
The Towells live on Twin Oaks Farm on Route 3, Mocksville, and they have four
children.
Their oldest, Ann, is now Mrs. William
Gary of Raleigh and next is John Reid, a
First Class Petty Officer in the U.S. Navy.
The youngest are the twins, Joe and
Jane, who “practically grew up" helping their mother in the courthouse,
Joe, who is married to the former Janet
Hoyle, of Cooleemee, is a First Lieutenant
in the U.S. Marine Corps on his tour ofi
duty in Spain and Jane is a teacher at Myers Park School in Charlotte.
There were some worries outside the
realm of Davie County Taxes, primarily thii.sc of a working inother with young
children at home."The boys would call me and usually
say. 'Mom. I'm hungry, the peanut butter
jar'sempty,' " Mrs. Towell recalled. “The
girls might say. ‘Johnny's chasing me with a snake' or 'Joe has had us locked in the
closet for three hours.’ ’’
As tax collector, Mrs. Towell would often
get messages along with tax payments in
her daily mail. "I received various
greeting cards, inspirational writings and even get-well cards," Mrs. Towell said.
"These helped gel some days off to a good
start.
in performing her job as tax collector.
Mrs Towell could not always please eieiyone. "I would remember the words
nf ,)esus." she said, "Woe unto you when
all men speak well of you," Luke 6:26.
Mrs. Towell's retirement does not of
ficially begin until the end of the month but
her last working day will be the 20th since she has a couple weeks of vacation time
coming,
"All in all. I've enjoyed the job," Mrs,
Towell said, “and I think Davie County has
a lot of tine people,"County manager Ron Vogler .said. “I
sure hate to see her go. She’s done a real
good job for us." No one has yet been selected to fill her position, Vogler said,
which is a job appointed by the county
commissioners.
“ I’m really looking forward to
retirement." Mrs, Towell said. “I haven't
had time to walk in our woods on the farm in so long, to see the old places I used to
lake the kids."
•'I will mi.ss all the.se wondertul people
I've worked for all these years and all the
people who have come in," she said.
"If at any time anyone has felt he did not
receive fair and impartial treatment in (he lax collector's office, I want to beg his
pardon," she concluded. "I want to thank
everyone for putting up with me and 1 wish
for all peace and love."
Motorcycle Stolen
A motorcycle, valued at between $650
and $700, was stolen Sunday night from the
,Iohn W. Ridenhour residence on the corner of Grove and Midway Streets in
Cooleemee.The breaking and entering and larceny
occurred sometime between 12:00 mid
night and 2:00 a.m. Sunday according to
the investigating officer, Deputy Sheriff J. A. Shostak of the Davie County Sheriff’s
Department.
The motorcycle was located in a storage
building behind the residence and the lock
on the building door was pryed off. The
motorcycle was then pushed to a wooded area and along a trail back to Midway
Street.The Sheriff’s Department is in
vestigating the incident.

Veterans Van Visits Mocksville
The National Assistance lo Veterans
Van stopped by Mocksvillc Monday to
discuss with local veterans a variety of
subjects.
The van is one of ten such vans whose
purpose is to tour the continental United
States providing veterans with direct
contact with the administration, according
to John Welch, Veteran Benefits Counselor
on the bus.
It was the first visit to Davie by the bus
since the summer of 1973 and the men
headed for Statesville after their day in
Davie County.
"This is more or less an outreach effort
lo help some veterans who do not have any
direct contact with the Veteran’s Ad
ministration," Welch said.
The tour of North Carolina will last
throughout December and January and
include some 31 stops,
“We’ll help with anything they’ve got a
problem with," said Charles Thomas,
Veteran Educational Training
Representative on the van. He said in this
slower economic period, more and more
veterans are going back to school to
enhance their employment chances when
the job market opens back up.
"Veterans from rural areas tend to be
more interested in compensation and
pension," Welch said. “In the urban areas,
there are more young veterans and
students who are interested in educational
benefits"
The bus carries a variety of handouts
and printed information and the men can
lake any claims for processing in the
regional office in Winston-Salem.
The men also encouraged use of gt
special toll-free line to the Winston-Salem
office for veterans with questions on benefits.
The number is open to any veteran by
calling 1-800-642-0841 where there are 15
people manning the telephone lines during
t)usiness hours.
“We're just here to provide a direct line
to the Veteran's Administration,” Welch
concluded, “so people won’t think we are
such a big, distant bureaucracy,”
The driver of this 1968 Chevrolet received head and facial injuries in an
accident which occurred Monday on 1-40 near the US 64 exit.
Seminar Held On Sedimentation Control
A seminar was held in Greensboro on
December 11 to discuss the Rules and
Regulations adopted by the N. C.
Sedimentation Control Commission. The
role of local governments concerning the Sediment Control Act was also explained.
The law covers all land disturbing ac
tivities except those related to agricultural
production and activities covered by the
There Is A Need For
The Best Teachers And
Teaching Equipment
The ideal learning situation,
as a wise educator once
suggested, may be a student at
one end of a log and a teacher at
the other end.
But in an age when men fly to
the moon and dive to the ocean floors and when scientists
unravel the deepest mysteries
of the atom, both the student
and the teacher find it helpful to
have a computer, a microscope and a multitude of other in
struments somewhere along
that log.
North Carolina State
University's forward looking School of Education uses such
equipment in leaching the men
and women who will be teaching
the sons and daughters of North Carolina and other states.
The need for the best teachers
and the best teaching equip
ment in North Carolina is
pointed up by figures cited by
Dean of Education Carl J. Dolce:
-In 1971. 18 percent of the
draftees from this state failed
mental aptitude tests, contrasted with 7,8 percent
nationally,
-In 1970, 10 percent of North
Caroliniatis 25 years of age or
older had completed less than five years of schooling, in
contrast to the national rate of
r>.r> percent
-The median years of
.schooling completed by North Carolinians 25 years or older
was 10.6 years, in contrast lo
12 1 years nationally
To help overcome such an i“ducational deficit, Dolce and
his 70 colleagues on the faculty
at liic .\CS(I School of
Education ihis year are
leaching 1,(153 men and women Ai)iiul 45 percent of those
students arc working at the
graduate level
II past rci'ords liold, ap-
proxjinalely (in pcn-ejil of lljiise
sludciils will hi'i'onu' le;u'hcrs
alter Ihcii' grariiuiliiin. Dolce
said
Wtial ahdul Ihe reports lhal
there is a surplus of teachers
around Ihe stale and nation'' Dolce IS quick to say tlial
while tlicre are a couple ol
lu'lds- English and social
^Indies where Ihere have in-en
more teachers than positions
for some years, there is no
teacher surplus generally.
In fact, the fields in which
NCSU specializes are in short
supply, ranging from a small to
a very great shortage. Among
those areas with shortages are industrial arts, vocational and
in d u s tr ia l e d u c a tio n ,
psychology, physical sciences,
math and biological sciences.And, said Dolce, “There
always will be a scarcity of
well-trained talent.”
••We’re seeking a more active
role,” said Dolce in providing
University expertise in such
areas of public education as
assisting teachers to stay abreast of the limes, technical
assistance, new school slruc-
ture--such as the ••Middle
School," and even in con
struction of buildings.
"...Whatever occurs in the e d u c a tio n a l processes
ultimately determines the fate
of a state or nation (therefore)
above all, there is a need for
more direct involvement of people in the development of
.education in North Carolina."-
1971 Mining Act. However, Dr. Joe
Phillips, member of the State Sediment Control Commission, cautioned farmers
that they may be included in a similar law
if they didn’t continue to work with Soil
and Water Conservation Districts in
carrying out good conservation farming.Many counties have adopted their own
ordinances for erosion and sedimentation
control. These county ordinances are
usually more desirable because they are
enforced by local people who are better
informed on their problems and needs. Also, developers and contractors can
receive faster service.The Davie Soil and Water Conservation
District Board is very impressed with the
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. They
have encouraged the Davie County
Commissioners to develop a local or
dinance.Additional information on the
Sedimentation Act is available at Ihe
Davie Soil and Water Conservation
District Office located in the County Office
Building.
Origins Of Christmas
Discussed For Rotary
The origins surrounding Christmas were discussed for members of the Mocksville
Rotary Club at their program, Tuesday.Dr. J. W. Angell, Professor of Religion at
Wake Forest University, traced the origin
of the date of December 25th as being
established for the celebration of
Christmas. He also tied into his presen
tation the origin of Santa Claus, the Christmas tree and other customs ob
served today.••All of these customs we use and ob
serve can be good if they remind us of the
symbol . . . and we must use the symbol. The observance of Christmas that
judgment and evil are temporary and
there is always hope ... for it symbolizes
the birth of Jesus Christ . . . the God of
Hope," said Dr. Angell.
Bob Hall had charge of the program and
introduced Dr. Angell. Brady Angell
presided.There is to be no Rotary meeting on
Tuesday, December 24th.

T w o R e z o n i n g C a s e s
The Davie County Board of Com
missioners met until nearly midnight
Monday in (heir regular meeting this week
which included a public hearing on two
rezoning cases
The first involved a petition on behalf of
Charles M. Shelton. R. Edwin Shelton,
Richard E. Stover and Marvin Gentry to
rezone six acres from H-A to R-20.
The property in question is located on
NC 801 across from Bermuda Run and
which the men planned lo subdivide for
development.
The land includes 2.t acres in all, 19 of
which are already zoned H-20 which would
allow them to cut the lot sizes to IS.OIX)
square feet providing there is a public
water supply.
The properly owners wanted the other
six acres rezoned R-20 so that all lots
would be the same size. The additional
acreage would involve about II! lots in
addition lo some 35 lots in the Iract already
zoned R-20.
There were four or five persons present
who. though not necessarily opposed to the
rezoning, wished to have more time to
investigate the move. The planning board
liad already approved the rezoning.
The commissioners voted to delay their
decision until their January 20th meeting
so that those with questions would have
more time to investigate the matter.
The other rezoning case to come before
the commissioners involved 7.8 acres
belonging to Frank and Sarah Koontz in
the Farmington area on SR 1456.
There is already an existing trailer park
on the property which went up before
county zoning went into effect. The present
petition requests that the 7.H additional
acres as well as the present park be
rezoned from R-20 lo R-M (residential-
mobile home district).
There were four persons speaking in
opposition to the petition which the
planning board had recommended not be
approved.
The persons in opposition were neigh
boring but not adjoining property owners.
Should 20 per cent of the adjoining
property owners be opposed, then four of
the five commissioners would have to
approve the rezoning for it to pass.
If approved, the park would come under
stricter state regulations when JO or more
mobile homes are present according lo a
new state health law. It was uncertain how
the new law would effect the existing
mobile home park.
The petition was sent back lo Ihe
planning board to present reasons for not
approving the petition.
Recreation Commission
Holds First Meeting
The recently formed Davie County
Recreation Commission met for the first
time Wednesday night in the Davie County
Courthouse.
Established in October under an or
dinance adopted by the county com
missioners. the Recreation Commission
was formed to operate any county
recreation program.
The commission works on a county-wide
basis as opposed to the town recreation,
Commission that serves just Mocksville.
The ordinance was set up according to
state statutes regulating what counties can
and cannot do in the recreation area.
Only within the last two years have
counties been granted the right by the
General Assembly lo use lax money for
recreation programs without a petition by
the voters.
Instead of tax money, however, the
board of conmiissioncrs decided to use
money from the general revenue sharing
fund to finance the program which will
begin with a budget of $50,000.
Originally designated as an eight-
member commission, the county com-

Mayor Arlen DeVito of Mock.sville has

count of resisting arrest. His case is set to appear in Davie
County District Court on

arguing for a split fell that samll local

Distaff Deeds
Cornshuck Wreaths Are
Popular at Christmas
By JAN CHRISTENSEN
N. C. State University
‘‘Make the beat use of
what you have,” is the
motto of many Columbus
County homemakers. So
it’s small wonder that
there are many cornshuck
wreaths hanging on doors
this holiday season.
Twenty-five county resi
dents made cornshuck
wreaths during a mini
craft workshop, explains
Mrs. Elaine Blake, home
economics extension
agent. And they were
pleased with their results.
One participant said
her daughter sold her
wreath at a bazaar for
sub-debs and now they
were making another.
A second homemaker
said she had made four
wreaths for relatives.
And many of the home
makers said they were
sharing their new-found
skills with other women
in their communities.
RARE DISEASE
A 10-year-old lad with
an extremely rare disease,
has had a chance to re
ceive top medical help,
thanks to the concern of
Currituck County citi
zens.
The medicine for the
boy was costing $100 a
week and consultation
fees and other medical
expenses were a terrible
strain on the family, re
lates Lou Capps, associ
ate home economics ex
tension agent.
So members of the Vir
ginia Edwards Extension
Homemakers Club set up
a special medical fund
and spread the word
th ro u g h newspapers.
W ithin three months,
more than $2,000 was col
lected.
“After one operation,
the boy’s improvement
was unbelievable,” Mrs.
Capps said.
In January, Benjie will
return to New York for
another operation, but
only because the people
in Currituck County car
ed enough to help a little
boy with a big heart.
OLE TIMEY
Ever hear of an “Ole
Timey” sale? That’s the
sales pitch members of
the Hallsboro Extension
Homemakers Club, Co
lumbus County,, gave to
their Christmas Bazaar.
Sales items included
bonnets, collards, sweet-
potatoes, canned and
baked goods, patch work
Christmas ornaments and
quilts, adds Mrs. Elaine
Blake, home economics
extension agent.
Church Women At
Blackwood Home
The Cooleemee United
Methodist Women met Sunday
evening at the home of Mrs. Bob Blackwood at 6:30, It was a
beautiful occasion for the 20
women who greatly enjoyed a
covered-dish supper.
The business of the evening
included the election of officers
for 1975, The new officers are:
Mrs. Bob Hoyle, president; Mrs. Donald Cornatzer, vice
president; Mrs. Wayne Weaver,
secretary and Mrs. Hudson
Hoyle, treasurer.
Rev. A. A. Ferguson led in a
service of dedication and in

Has Meeting
The Cooleemee Parent
Teachers Association held their
regular meeting Monday evening in the school
auditorium at 7:30 p.m.
Youngsters of the kin
dergarten and first grade suite,
under the direction and
supervision of their teachers,
Mrs. Africa, Mrs. Jordan, Mrs. Waller and Mrs. Robinson, presented a most entertaining
Christmas program to a record
crowd. This same suite also
was the winner of the at

Open house was observed
immediately following the program. Parents and visitors
were allowed to tour the new
suites and visit with their
children’s teachers.
The tradition of the Christ-
mas tree spread from Ger
many tbrouRh Europe and
EnRland to America. It is a
.symbol of the Christmas sea
son.
For an old fashioned tree,
decorate it witti nothing but
tiand crafted ornaments. W hen
you moke your own orna
ments. you not only have an
economical advantage, but also
a creative satisfaction and a
helpful way to involve children in the Christmas preparations.
Prepare a batch of play clay,
roll it and cut into ornamental
shapes to be painted when dry.
If your schedule tends to be
rushed at holiday tim e, pre-
TDare the clay m ixture ahead
of time. It stores well when
kept in a cool, dry place w rap
ped tightly in plastic wrap or
bags. W hen the tim e comes,

to do the painting w hen the
shapes dry.

Set ornaments aside on a pro
tected surface to dry com
pletely at room temperature.
One batch of play clay is
enough m ixture for about 20
ornaments.
Use your im agination for
the decorating. Play clay may
be painted w ith water colors,
poster paints or felt tip pens.
Before the clay has hardened,
texture may be added by scor
ing w ith a knife or grooving
w ith a fork. Bits of play clay in sm all cut out shapes can be
added to the ornaments by
dam pening pieces slightly be

f
Pressure Of Christmas
We all feel the pressure of
approaching Christmas,
The traffic is terrible.You can't find a parking
.spiice.
The stores are crowded.
You think about presents -
wondering what in the world
you can get for so-and-so.Vou think of friends and loved
ones who are so hard to shop
for
You can't think of anything
they need.
Maybe there's nothing in a
.slore Ihat they need.But what about some token of
love -what about love itself...
and understanding... and a helping hand...
and a smile
and a prayer?
You can’t buy these things in
any store, and these are the
very things people need. Let’s
not permit the crowds and the rush to crowd Christmas out of k I
our hearts... ' '
for that is where it belongs.
Christmas is not in the stores -
but in the hearts of people.

DAVIK COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19. 1974 -
Purchase Complaints Discussed By Better Business Bureau
III an pffort to hoad off some of the complaints the Bureau usually reecives in regards to Christmas purchases and to
make the sea.son a liltle
brighter for both consumers and merchants, the BBB offers
the following suggestions.
One often heard gripe in
volves merchandise that is
returned to the store after Christmas. While many
merchants will accept returnpd
merchandise as a service to
their cu.stomers, the BBB points out that there is no requirement for them to do so. The merchant
incurs considerable expense
when an item is sold. Sales
clerks must Ix- paid, records must be kept. Whal is more,
when an item is purchased for
Christmas, lies under (he irec
for several weeks, and is then returned to the store, the
merchant may have missed .several opportunities to sell it to .someone else.
Stores which accept returned
merchandise do so as a service
and not as an obligation. Obviously that service shoud not
Ix' abused, and consumers
should make every effort to
avoid unnecessary returns and exchanges. Store policies
regarding refunds, exchange,
Iny-aways, etc., vary from store
to store and the smart shopper should find out at the time the
purchase is marie exactly what
that store's policy is on returned
merchandise. And he should hang on to sales slips to prove
purchase.
The Bureau also warns the
public and businessmen against dealing with transient vendors. Businessmen have been the
target of various perfume
hoaxes involving the sale of
well-known brands of colognes
and toilet water rebottled in small purse-size containers and
sold as perfume, or the use of
counterfeit labels or use of
initials of well-known brands of
Ix M fu in e .The Bureau has also had
reports of cheap watches being sold for many times their value.
The vendor usually claims
some kind of hardship or
emergency and offers to sell the watch for $15 or $20, claiming a

Social S ecurity
. . . by Hal G riffin
An important change in the
Social Security Law will permit
people under 72 (o work and
earn more and still get their
social security benefits starting
in January. In 1975 people can earn as much as $2,520 and get
their full social security retirement or survivors benefit.
The yearly earnings limit is
$2,400 for 1974. The increase
keeps the amount in line with
increases in general average wages.
Social security benefits will
be reduced by $1 for every $2
earned over $2,520 in 1975.
However no matter how much
people earn for 1975 they can get their full social seurity benefit
for any month in which they
neither earn over $210 nor do
substantial work in their own
business. Previously the monthly earnings limit was
$200,
Different rules apply to
disabled people who are getting
social security disability benefits. As in the past people 72
and over will continue to get
their full social security
benefits regardeiss of earnings.
By April 15, 1975, social
security beneficiaries must
report their earnings for the year 1974 if they worked and
earned over $2,400.
Social security contributions
rates remain the same for 1975-
5,85 percent of covered wages
contributed by employees and employers; 7,9 percent of
covered self-employment in
come. The earnings and con
tributions base-the amount on
which social security con
tributions are made-wili be the first $14,100 of covered earnings
for the year, starling January.
Previously the base was $13,200,
Social security pays over $4,9
billion a month in retirement,
disability, and survivors
benefits to over 30 million people.
. My son wants me to come live with him and his wife. If I do,
will that affect my
supplemental security income
payments?Yes. Your payments
would be reduced by one- third in consideration of the
value of the room and board
you'd gel from your son if
you lived in his household.
Is the hospital insurance deductible under Medicare
going to go up in 1975? If so,
why?
For benefit periods
starting after December 31.
1974, the Medicare hospital Insurance deductible will be
$92, up from tX4 in 1974.
Under the Medicare law , the
deductible is increased tu keep It in line with the
average cost of one day's
slay in a hospital, llie
increase tu $92 is based on
hospital costs in 1973.I'm going into the hospital in
December and have to stay
there through part of January.
Do I have to pay the 1975
hospital insurance deductible under the Medicare program?
If you are hospitalized tu
start a new benefit period in1974. you'll l)e responsible
for the 1974 deductible
amount of |S4. even if your
hospital slay evlends into
1975, llie new $U2 deductible applies only to benefit
periods lhal start in 1975,
1 was severely injured in an
accident 2 months ago, and iiiy
doctor told me I should apply for social security disability
payments. Don't I have to wait 5
months before I can apply'?
.No. People Hhu are so

apply for benefits as soon as
possible after they're
disabled. Klifjible people
and their families can ^et
monthly checks starting
with the sixth full month of
disabilily.I’ll be 65 in August 1975 and
will probably retire then. How
can 1 find out if all my earnings
have been credited to my social
security record?
Call the Salisbury social security office and ask the
people there to send you a
Request for Statement of
Earnings post card. Fill out
the post card and mail it to
the Social Security
Administration. You will get a statement of your
earnings, free of charge.
For many years I worked as a
hair stylist in a beauty salon
and my job was covered by
social security, Itecently I left and now do hair styling out of
my home. Can I get social
security credit for my earnings
even though I'm not a salaried worker?
Yes. you can get social
security credit for your
earnings as a self-employed
worker if your net earnings from self-employment are
at least $40fl in a year. You
should gel in touch with any
social security office and
ask for a free copy of the
booklet. "If You're Self- Employed . . Reporting
Your Income For Social
Security." This booklet will
tell you just how, when, and
where to report your income from self-employment so
that you get .social security
credit for your earnings.
I’m going to be 63 in March
and I’m thinking about retiring
and getting monthly social
security payments, but I haven't definitely made up my
mind. How much notice do I
have to give social security to
make sure my monthly
payments start at the same my
pay checks stop?It's a good idea to apply
fur your monthly social
security retirement
payments 2 to 3 months
before your actual
retirement date. That way there'll he no time lag
between your last pay check
and your first social
secui'ity check. So if you do
decide you're going to retire in March, you should get in
touch with any sucial
security ufflce as soon as
possible to complete your
application fur retirement payments.
I've been living and working
in this country for many years,
but I never became a United
States citizen. When I’m eligible for social security benefits, will
I be able to get them even
though I'm not a citizen?
Yes. you can gel social
security payments if you've »orked long enough under
social security even if
you're not a I'nited Slates
liti/en.

Sentor Sam Ervin Says
The Senate is ex. ’cted to
adjourn bine die this week,
I am greatly pleased that one of the landmark bills which I introduced in the Senate on
April 11, 1973 was passed and
became the Budget and Im
poundment Control Act, public
Law 93-344. This Act has been
hailed by many people as one of the most important pieces of
legislation in the history of the
country. This is because it is
the first time in history that we
have set up the machinery by
which Congress will be kept
conscious throughout the
session of what resources it has to appropriate and what
resources it has appropriated
and Is appropriating. There is
no reason after a short period of
time that we cannot balance
the budget and Insist that the
United States pay its way as it goes along; that is something it
should have been doing for a
long time as a matter of sound
fiscal policy.One year ago today I decided that I should not seek reelec
tion. I did so in spite of the fact
that I believe that as Chairman
of the Senate Committee on
Government Operations, as ranking member of the Senate Judiciary and Senate Armed
Services Committees, and as
Chairman of several sub
committees of the Judiciary Committee, I could have served
the people for a short period of
time more effectively than at
any time in the past simply
because of my experience.At the same time, I was mindful of the story of the
Eastern Potentate who offered-
a reward to anyone who could
make a statement which would
be true under all circumstances. The winner of the reward stated with simplicity
and truth: “Hiis too shall pass
away." So I came to the con-
slusion that it was not fair to the
people of North Carolina for me
to ask them to reelect me to the
Senate to a term of office that would not expire until I was
more than eighty-four years of
age. I decided, and I think
wisely, to step down and let a
younger man take my place. I
rejoice in the fact that I am
going home to Morganton.As I contemplate retirement,
I am grateful to the people of North Carolina for permitting
me to serve them in the Senate
for a longer period of time than that of any other North Carolineans save Senators
Furnifold M. Simmons, Lee S.
Overman, and Matt W. Ran
som. I am grateful too to the
people because they have stood by me. I have run eight times in
primaries as well as general
elections for the state-wide
offices of Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of North Carolina and United States
Senator. On each occasion my
friends have looked after my
campaign and I never had to solicit a single contribution or
organize a state-wide campaign
organization. These were
factors which I believe enabled
me to serve what I always thought were the best interests of all of the people of North
Carolina.I always deemed it com
paratively easy to represent
North Carolina insofar as my
ideological views are con
cerned. I believe that this occurred because I was born in
North Carolina and many of my
people had roots in our state
antedating the American
Reevolution. I was educated in
North Carolina, and it has
always been a joy for me to be associated with North Carolina
people. On major issues I think
that the vast majority of the
people and myself were always
in substantial agreement.
No summary of my service
would be complete, however, without saying that I am mindful that I could not have
carried out my duties without
the aid, assistance, and daily
loyalty of a devoted and ex
cellent staff.

Vehicle Wrecks
On Rural Road
A 1974 Chevrolet was damaged around $400 when it ran off the roadway and
wrecked last Saturday around
11:25 p. m.
The vehicle was being
operated by Michael Wayne
Minor, 16, of Advance Rt. 3.State Highway Patrolman A.
C. Stokes said his investigation
showed that Minor was
traveling on Rural Paved Road No. 1135 and apparently took his attention off the road for a
moment as the vehicle entered
a sharp curve to the right. The
car ran off road on the left and wrecked.
Minor was charged with driving to the left of center.

Pulp Processing
Is A Smelly One!
A meeting between the At
torney General and directors of
the state's five Better Busness
Bureaus is expccted to produce a new joint approach to com
plaint-handling which could
increase efficiency and
productivity and add per

Carolina consumers.Attorney General Rufus
Edmiston and Consumer
Protection Division head Jim Blackburn called (he meeting to
work on plans to broaden

The conference was the first of its kind it the state.
Participating from the
Bureaus were Ralph Cambron
of Greensboro; Robert Howell of the Raleigh. Durham and Chapel Hill Bureau; Robert
Hitchcock of Winston-Salem;
Ted Law of Charlotte, and Dan
Packard of Asheville,The Attorney General said,
“The thrust of the Division and
the bureaus is essentially the
same-to rid the marketplace of
unfair and deceptive trade practices. We agree that the bulk of the complaints we
handle are not against
longstanding, reputable
businesses,
“The honest merchant suffers losses equal to the consumers’ when money is spent with a dishonest dealer.

where the illegal practices
occur, working directly with the
people who are victimized.
They often see patterns of offenses before the first complaint ever reaches our office."
Fdmisten said.
"But we have the resources
and legislation necessary to
conduct investigations and take the violators of trade laws to
court."Edmisten added, “With
unemployment and inflation at
a staggering high, we know our dollars must be spent sparingly and wisely. We must work
together to make this so."
The bureau directors said
their offices particularly
needed backup aid from tlie attorney General's Office in tile
areas of investigations, court

GUATEMALA'S
Guatemala's Indians-some
20 Maya-speaking groups- make up half the country’s 5,500,000 people. National Geographic says.
The nose knows.
The problem of pulp
processing is a smelly one. Just
ask any person who has been near one of the several pulp mills located in North Carolina.
Hie nose knows.
The ‘‘smell” is hydrogen
sulphide, a by-product of the
kraft process at the pulp mill. More than three-fourths of the 35 million pounds of chemical pulp produced in the United
States is from kraft pulp.
Research into the smelly
probelm by scientists at North
Carolina State University’s
School of Forest Resources has
been given a recent boost.
Some 24 pulp and paper companies and their suppliers have pooled their funds and
given $120,000 for the con
tinuation of studies which are
benefiting the industry.
Participating companies are from Sweden, France, Japan and Canada, in addition to 19
firms within the United States.
Experiments indicate the
pulp can be “cooked” with
oxygen and sodium hydroxide,
eliminating the offensive
hydrogen sulphide. With the
NCSU oxygen and sodium process, the laboratory tests
show there is an equivalent pulp
yield.
A mill using the new process is scheduled to begin operation next year in Everett, Wash. The
refinement can also be used to
modify existing mills.
Working on the NCSU-
Industry Cooperative on Oxygen Pulping are scientists
in the School of Forest
Resources led by Dr. Irving S.
Goldstein, head of the Depart
ment of Wood and Paper Science, Dr. William T. McKean, Dr. Hou-min Chang,
Dr. Josef S. Gratzl and Dr. R.
Heath Reeves.
The smell of hydrogen
sulphide ~ one atom among two
billion atoms in the air is
Christmas Concert

First Baptist Church, High
Point.
The chorus will do Christmas
carols, hymns, and songs from
Bach to 1974.Jingle BellTravelage"will be

Meredith
Scholarships
Available
Mrs. Grace P. Wootton has
announced that any Baptist
girls who plan to go to college
next fall and who may be in need of a scholarship should
contact her.She stated that one Davie
County girl is at Meredith College now on a Meredith scholarship. Also, that she
received a letter from another
Davie County girl saying she
had just been accepted and was
being given a scholarship for the spring semester.According to Mrs. Wootton,
Meredith College offers up to
$1000 a year. One must be accepted by the college before a
scholarship can be given. Also,
she musi be a Baptist.
POPULATION
About bu million people a year

population.
detectable - is released from
the huge digester vats where
wood chips are “cooked”. The
chemicals dissolve the lignin
holding the fibers together,
leaving t he fibers to be used for
pulp and paper. The chemicals and dissolved lignin are called “black liquor" and must be
concentrated and burned with
subsequent recovery of the
cooking chemicals.
The NCSU team is studying
two methods of utilizing oxygen. In one system the oxygen is introduced into the chip
digester near the end of the
cooking period converting the
sulphur to nonodorous com
pounds and improving the digestion of the chips. The second system is to substitute
oxygen for sulphur.Not only do the experimental
oxygen methods improve the
air at the mills, they also
produce a waste which can be
channeled into streams without
lowering the stream’s natural
oxygen.The NCSU scientists say that
their research indicates the new
process would substantially
eliminate both air and water
pollution resulting from the
processing of pulp.

Although the walks look
ithey’ve been there since colonial
.times, it was only about 32 years
go that the first brick walks ere laid at UNC and most of
^them have been put in the last 28
ears.
Bricks had been used in
uilding drainage gutters along
stone walls in the early twen- Ities, according to John Bennett,
Bformer supervisor of operations
Efor UNC’s physical plant for 44
lyears and presently consultant
Ito the University Property
iQffice. But it wasn’t until about
ri940 that the possibilities of
|;ltt-ick walks were seen, and with few thousand dollars ex-
rimenting started.
The first walk was put in
liagonally across the upper quad, according to the
■ecollections of Giles Horney,
airector of the UNC Physical
fPlant until 1966. It was a great
Ijmprovement over the gravel
[which was “hell on
Ishoeleather.” he said, but there [wasn't much money for brick in
Ithe maintenance budget.
"Never could sell Raleigh (the
■ state Legislature) on brick
Iwalks,” he said, so the next
|walk didn’t go in until 1942.that was the one in front of
[Swain Hall, then the campus
[lining hall. “The students
ould gather in front of Swain,"
iHorney said, “waiting for the
Idinner bell, and wore down the larea so that it was a real mud
Ihole when it rained. Putting in
I brick there was one of the
Ibiggest improvements on the
Icampus."
I Over the next 10 years a few Ihundred feet of walk were put in
leach year. It took some ex-
Iperimenting to find the right
Icombinatiop. The first walks ■used concrete as a foundation
land between the joints, but

There is a real art to putting
in Ihe walks. “Don’t think just
anyone can do it,” Bennett said.William Barker, brickmason
foreman for the past 20 years,
who retired this fall, agrees. "A
man needs to go to brickmason
school and then work as an
apprenlicc for three or four
years,” Barker said, adding
that even then he may not be an export. “Some men can lay
brick but never make a first
class brickmason."
Barker, who has been in
construction work since the late
1920s, knows his brick. He joined the UNC Physical Plant
in I94G and is responsible for
much of the brickwork that has
been done since.
He is proudest of the brick
area around the sundial at Morehead Planetarium, laid in
195G, and says it is the most
artistic piece of work he has
done on campus.
A close look will show why. The radius around the sundial
was precisely measured, “not
just eyeballed in," said Barker.
After the master plan was
drawn, it took two men two
weeks just to saw Ihe bricks '
thal fan out perfectly in the Ihirly-foot circle.
The other brickwork on
campus may not be as striking
as the sundial walks, but it's
just as beautiful in its func
tionalism. The walks va^y in
width from four feet to 12 feet and are set in a “running bond”
(Old English pattern). There
arc still a few walks left in the
‘ ‘ b a s k e tw e a v e ’ ’ and
“herringbone weave” but,
because these are more ex
pensive to install, they are not
used these days.
A 10 x 10 foot area takes four men eight hours to complete,
but it's worth the time because
the walks last scores of years
when properly done. Some, like
the walk running from the post
office on Franklin SI. over to the
Old West and South buildings one of the first walks put in 32
years ago, are the original ones.
With all the walks around
campus, the trick still is to get
people to use them and not walk
on the grass. Signs put up by

CHRISTMAS GIVING
About this time of year you
begin to see Santa Clauses
ringing bells on the corner,
soliciting contributions. This is
also the time when your telephone is mostly likely to be
ringing from solicitors asking
you to give to a charity. Or you
may receive small items in the
mail accompanied by a request
for a contribution.The holidays certainly are a
time for giving, but you should
know something about the
soliciting organizations. If you
give freely to an unknown cause
without investigating, you may
just be making some opportunist richer instead of
helping a needy family or group
to better enjoy the holidays.
How do you determine if a
cause or organization is
legitimate? There are certain
things to look for . says the
Better Business Bureau. The BBB organization has published
a new set of voluntary stan
dards for charitable
organizations to follow in soliciting funds from the

around the campus that convey
Ihe message.
Not everyone appreciates the
tniles of brick walks on campus."Some people think we are
going to do away with all the

all we are trying to do is to put
walks wher the kids are walking
and grass wouldn’t grow
anyway."
Till’ North Carolina Depart
ment of I'’orest Resources has
leceiitly received a number of
tequesls to examine extensive
areas of dying pines mostly in
eastern North Carolina. Both loblolly and slash pines, four
years of age and under, are
iK-itig affected. Most mortality
is occurring in low-lying areas.
Representatives of the
department have determined
that Ihe damage is being caused by the unseasonably cold
weather experienced in October. After a warm September,
there were two sudden cold
snaps, one occurring on October
and a second colder period
on October 19-22. Since trees
were not \;nlirely cold har
dened, high mortality resulted. One industrial owner estimates
3000-4000 acres lost in pockets
scattered throughout larcc plantation.
Land owners with pine stands
four years of age and under
should examine them carefully,
particularly Ihose in low-lying areas. Trees with green tops or
partially green tops will
probably recover. Trees that
are red-topped should be
checked by shaving through the bark at near ground level. If the
layer between the bark and
wood (cambium layer) is
brown, Ihe tree probably will
not recover, Where large areas
of trees with low recovery chances are found, the areas
should be replanted.
If you have any questions
concerning this problem, please
contact your local forester or
pest control forester for
assistance.

identification. The BBB stan
dards state that he or she should
tell you what portion of the sale

Mail Solicitations
You may receive unordered

You aren’t required to send any

return these items, whether
they are Christmas cards, Key

with the items should state this.
Sometimes so-called charitable

it, you don’t have to respond - except, perhaps, to notify Ihe
BBB.
By Telephone
The BBB standards provide
Uiat anyone who calls you

state at the outset what

you aren’t familiar with the

tiie Better Business Bureau.
If you are approached on Ihe
street by someone asking for funds for a charity, ask to see a
solicitation card or some other
identification containing the
organization's name and address and the solicitor's name.
Remember, if you want to
give to any charitable

money is going. Ask some questions first:

Who will benefit from your donation'.’
Is Ihe organization non-profit or for^rofit'.’

Can Of Deadly Beef Stew Found In Cooleemee
By Marlene Ben.son
A can of beef slew, Ihc type
suspected in a botulism death of
a Georgia woman, has been
found in Cooleemee,Jim Oliver of 24 Watt Street,
said he and his wife discovered
the Krey brand beef stew in
their cupboard after reading
about the type being recalled by
the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
"Luckily we remembered to
check the number and look
through our canned goods", he
said.According to Jim , they
purchased the can of beef stew
about a month or so ago at a
grocery store in Salisbury.
"It was also luck that we had not already eaten it”, he added.
His wife had told Jim and the
children to have it for lunch one day la.st week since she was
going Christmas shopping and
would not be home.
"But it had gotten pushed behind some other cans and we
didn’t see it”, Jim said.
The recall of the beef stew
several days ago followed the death of 79-year-old Cleo Harris
of Griffin, Ga., who became ill
after eating canned beef stew on
Thanksgiving.
The canned stew under the
recall order is labeled “Est 712” and has additional numbers on
the can lid or bottom.
The recall extends to nine
brands of canned beef stew
packed by Kelly Foods of
Jackson, Tenn., including Krey, Keill, AQ. Thrifty Maid,
Kroger, Allen Pride, Her
mitage, Lancaster and Porter.
The government said con
sumers finding the stew in their

pantries should return it to the
store where purchased, but “ Under no circumstances
should the cans be opened and
tasted."
Mr. and Mrs. Oliver were
concerned that other residents
may also have them although the suspected cans have now
been withdrawn from the
shelves of all local stores.
Davie residents are urged to
check their present stock of
canned goods for any of the
above mentioned brands and if found, return immediately to
the place of purchase.

These words by Alex
Drier do not deal with
Christmas, per se, but it
seems to me that they do
exemplify the Spirit of
Christmas and give us
guidelines for the other
364 days in the year.
I have always been tol
erant of peoples’ views
about Christmas and how
they choose to spend it.
To our family, it has al
ways meant a time to
have the family together
in a happy state of love,
companionship and good

he enjoyed as a youth and

to his own fireside and
the quietness and joy of

Does the scramble for
Christmas funds this year have
you robbing Peter to pay Paul
and consuming larger quantities
of aspirin than you like to ad
mit? If so, you could be con
sidering a Christmas Club sav
ings account for next year and
should have some solid data on
which to base your decision.
In 1974, some 19 million
.consumers opened Christmas
Club accounts in financial institutions across the country,
and, says the American Bank
ers Association (ABA), they
each saved an estimated average
of $205 over the 12-month pe
riod.
Why did these people pump
more than $3.75 billion into
club accounts rather than regu
lar savings? For most of them,
the advantage came from the
psychological pressure of hav
ing a coupon to turn in with
the weekly or bi-wcckly payments. The result? Forced sys
tematic savings for individuals
who find self-discipline is not
one of their strong points.
It’s interesting to note that
many of these depositors did
not receive any interest on
their savings, and yet preferred
the non-interest earning club
account to a regular savings ac
count for building Christmas
funds. Fortunately for these de
positors, the number of finan
cial institutions offering interest
on club accounts is increasing
yearly and is now up to about
45 per cent.
The ABA points out that
even without interest, the club
account is a true public service.
Federal Reserve Board statistics
Did a spinster hang up the

show that only the very largest
banks, with deposits over S200
million, make any profit on
club accounts. Why? The cost
of maintaining the account is
simply larger than the profit
that can be made from invest
ing such a small amount of
money. As a matter of fact,
small and medium-sized banks
lose anywhere from $0,76 to
$1.07 per account hejorc paying
inieicsi.
If you feel the need for a
push into systematic savings,
you should be aware that you
will be signing a contract which
includes certain rules and regu
lations, Generally these are
printed on the inside back cover
of the coupon booklet and in
clude such things as your
agreement to forfeit interest
(where offered) if you do not
complete the one-year payments.
You should also know that
the maximum interest rate
banks may pay on club ac
counts, as on any passbook or
statement savings account, is 5
per cent per annum. This
amount is set by law. And yet
you can and should shop around
for the best possible interest
yield. This is affected by the
method of compounding your
interest. Daily compounding of
fers the best return, with month
ly, quarterly and annual meth
ods running after in that order.
You may be sure, says the
ABA, that your funds in a
Christmas Club account arc
safe. As with all deposits in in
sured banks, they are covered
up to $40,000 by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corp.

On one occasion, so legend says, the gift landed In a
stocking, hung by the fireplace to dry.
History casts a dubious eye on this “origin” of the Christ
mas stocking custom. The spinster probably didn’t have
a stocking — not in the fourth century.
Knitted form-fitting hosiery was unknown until the thir
teenth century. Earlier, people
wrapped cloth or rags around their feet as substitute for modern stockings.
Even after William Lee invented the stocking frame, a
more efficient method of production, in the late 1500’s, it
was some time before the poor could afford to buy stockings.
History makes one concession to the legend tellers.
Paintings from Pompeii show that early Romans did wear
some form of stockings, even before the birth of Christ.

Planning to give your children a i>et for Cliristmas? These suggestions from the American Veterinary Medical Association can help make the gift a joy for the entire family.
Consider why you want the pet. Will it be u companion, protector, hunter? Some breeds are better suited than others for certain roles, and Bomc animals do not make good pets at all. Monkeys, skunks, reptiles and other wild animals belong in their native homes or in zoos. Wild animals are usually expensive and difficult to care for. Many are potentially dangerous and ran cause extensive property damage or serious injury to owners, their families and friends.
In addition to selecting your pet carefully be sure you are prepared (o puy both the initial cost of the animal and da,v*tO'day expenses for food, health care and other essentials. Even adopting a "free" jji't from ;m aniin.il shelter or humane society involves soini' expense. The
animal should be thoroughly exaniim-d bv ;i veterinarian and properly vaccinated against infectious diseases. It may also need a license.
HenuMniicr that animals are IU)( A pi*t rcijiiiri-.sjirupiT triMlMu'iit ,iiui ilail\
care. Don’t forget that after the novelty wears off someone still has to feed the pet, clean up after it and exercise it, if necessary, even when you go on vocation.
Decide before the animal arrives where it will sleep, what if will eat and where it can play and exercise. Be sure you have enough space in .vour apartment, nouse or yard to accommodate a pet.Oood health depends on regular medical attention, |)roper nutrition and correct treatment and handling. A veterin.'irian should give your pet regular medical checkups
and can advise you on planning a properly balanced diet. Be sure family members do not mistreat the pet. Very young children may unknowingly injure a young animal, often by “over loving” it.
ITnwanled dogs and cats are becoming a major health .■md safely problem. Don’t add to it. Unless you intend

Make This
Christmas
Different
There’s an art to gift giving —
and it can be learned! And with
Christmas on its way, it is high time to heed a few huliday hints
about presenting the perfect
present,
1, The card has a lot to say, so
make it personal. Let your
children draw pictures or take a
family portrait and reproduce it for cards with personality. You
might even try to write your
own poem or limerick for a
greeting that is as unique as you
are,
2, Suit the gift to the person, f'or your daring friends, dare to
give the earthy scent of musk.
Houbigant’s primal scent
comes in various forms —
concentrated oil, dusting powder, spray mist, and
French-milled marbleized soap
— all packed up in an attractive
black patent tote,4, Make it easy to care for. Be
sure that what you give is a gift,
not a chore, Kasy to wash and not too-fragile materials are the
Ix'sl.
Remember always that the
gift you give is a double
reflection — it reflects your taste and the image you have of
the person you’re giving it to.
From cleaning floors to
repairing boilers, public school
maintenance people are
responsible for seeing that North Carolina’s children have
a clean, comfortable en
vironment in which to learn.
In an effort to guarantee a suitable learning environment,
the 1973 General Assembly in its
second session passed Senate Resolution 1417 directing the
State Board of Education to
study school maintenance
programs and to bring back
recommendations for im
provement.Under the direction of State
Board of Education Member R.
R. Manz of Roanoke Rapids, the Public School Maintenance
Study Commission was set tip to
study the problem. It was the
task of these fifteen educators
and businessmen to make
recommendations not only to
standardize and improve the overall working conditions of
school maintenance people but
also to upgrade and improve
school building care throughout
the State. '
Through questionnaires to all
school maintenance people, visits to exemplary programs,
and discussions with people
acquainted with maintenance
operations, the study com
mission identified five major
problem areas in school
maintenance programs. Maintenance people, the
commission said, need help in:
(1) financing their programs;
;2) employing and retaining
qualified personnel; (3)
training their personnel; (4) planning and implementing
comprehensive maintenance
programs; and (5) using ef
fe c tiv e m a n a g e m e n t
procedures.
After a complete study of
these problems, said Manz, the
commission came up with five recommendations for im
proving maintenance programs
in the public schools of the
Stale. The first recom
mendation is that the State fund
a key position or portion of a position in each school unit to
provide leadership for main
tenance and custodial
operations. “We found in our
study,” said Manz, “that having
one person fully responsible for
the maintenance operation is
essential to an effective
program.”The second recommendation
resulted from the problem of
inadequate training for
maintenance personnel. The
commission suggested that the
State fund an inservice
program designed to upgrade
and improve skills af all maintenance personnel in the
State. “This is an essential part
of any successful program,”
added Manz, “due to changing
techniques and practices in all
fields of endeavor.”The commission also
recommended that a maih- tenance and custodial
classification system and
salary schedule be established
in each school unit by July I, 1977, This classification system
and salary schedule would
include a wide variety of
technicians and craftsmen
needed in a modern effective maintenance program.
The fourth recommendation
called for improve management procedures in
maintenance and custodial
programs. Such procedures
would include long-range
planning, personnel incentive programs, cost accounting
systems, and preventive
maintenance, “Management
procedures,” said Manz,
’’would guarantee an organized system'of communication and
response to the varied main
tenance needs in each school
unit,"The commision made a final
recommendation to the Slate
Board of Education that a
legislative program be
developed which would include
appropriation of funds to meet the needs of school maintenance
people in the State,
“The members of the study
commission made special
notice as they visited school
m aintenance program s
throughout the State of the dedicated men and women who
are committed to effectivel
maintenance programs In their I school system,” Manz em-|
phasized. “Unfortunately,
many of these people agle
working under severely adverse '
circumstances. We hope that through legislation now being
drafted that the work of the
Public School Maintenance
Study Commission will even
tually mean a comfortable and suitable learning environment
for every child in the State.”

SenatorRobert Morgan
Robert Morgan will take the
oath as United States Senator
from North Carolina at noon on
January 14, his headquarters
announced today.And from all indications,
there will be a large contingent
of .supporters from North
Carolina who will be in
Washington for the occasion.
Several hundred persons have written to Morgan headquarters
here indicating they want to be
in the nation’s capital when the
state’s first elected Democratic
Senator in some 20 years is
sworn into office. Aides are in
the process of arranging two receptions for those who make
the trip to Washington.One will be on the evening of
January 3, the day prior to the
swearing-in, at a Washington
hotel where many of the North
Carolina visitors will stay and
the other will follow the swearing in on the afternoon of
January 14 in the Dirksen
Senate Office Building.
The swearing in itself will be
in the Senate chamber which
lias an extremely small seating
area for visitors. With several
senators being sworn in that day. there will be a scarcity of
tickets. Indications are that
North Carolina’s new senator
will receive only ten passes to
the gallery. Though seats for
the swearing in will by necessity be limited to close family
members, there should be
plenty of opportunities for
Morgan supporters to rub
elbows with top lawmakers.
Morgan is inviting several friends in the Senate who came
to North Carolina to campaign
on his behalf to attend the
ret'eptioiis. This includes top
presidential contenders Henry Jackson, l.loyd Bentsen and
Robert Byrd.
George Anderson, a Raleigh
attorney, has arranged group
transportation on Amtrak for
those who those who would like to travel by rail. This is an
tvotinmical way to travel and
also saves energy, the Morgan
.staff has pointed out.
Even though Robert Morgan
will not lake his seat in the
linited Stales Senate until next month, he has managed, with
the help of Senator Sam Ervin
to help a North Carolina soldier
stationed in Korea.
SIM Brian A. Sterk was in Korea on NovemlxT 18 when he
wrote Senator-elect Morgan and
told him his problem. He had
IxH-ii in Korea on Christmas
Oay. Sterk wrote, anddespite the fact that a soldier's
lour there generally includes
only one Christmas, the Army
liad deterred his homecoming until December 29, 1974, which
would cause him to be away
ti'iim home for the second
siraight {’hristmas.

Who >'ould ever imagine that
one ol Ihe most important events in Ihe history of the
world could be decided by the
toss of a coin?
A modern day public relations
man would have picked a better day for Ihe event than a cold,
windy Dec. 17, and a better
location than the deserted
sandy tjeaehes of Kitty Hawk, N.C. But Kitty Hawk was an ideal location for brothers
Wilbur and Orville Wright who
had traveled from their cold
snowv home in Davton. Ohio • to
lly.This year marks Ihe 71st anniversary of man's first
lowered flight from the slopes
of Kill Devil Hill ■ in the
Wright's wood and faliric
“glider" as they called it.The deciding coin toss came
three days before the historic
flight when the plane was ready lo fly on Dec. 14. Wilbur, the
older of the brothers, won and
look his place at Ihe controls.
He sailed into a stiff wind. The
frail craft was only airborne for three seconds when a gust
Yadkin Valley
fiuised it to dip into the ground,
damaging a wing. It look Ihe
Wrights three days to make
necessary repairs - something
they had done many limes before, following several
hundred test flights with a
series of smaller gliders.
Wilbur and Orville were no strangers to the Outer Banks of
North Carolina. Searching for a
place to try their machines their
first visit was made in Ihe autumn of 1900 at the recom
mendation of Ihe United States
Weather Bureau. Many of their
wing dc'signs were created from observing Kitty Hawk seagulls Ihrougli many hours of wat
ching and studying.
Koi' lliree years when Iheir bicycle business would slow down for Ihe winter the two
would come to North Carolina
for several months of study and
lesling Each year they brought
with Ihem a new and larger
gliderThen as Ihe end of 190:i
loomed, the brothers linniglil
Iheir largest creation yet - this

weighing less than 2IW (xuinds

Country Singer's Career
By Clarence Duncan
What comes to your mind when you hear the name of

to stardom? A screaming siren in mini-sitirt?While Jeannle did achieve
fame in the above role, and her
rendition of “Harper Valley
P.T.A.” sold six million copies,
she would lie more than a little disappointed if her present pub
lic image hinged only on that.
Although she had dreamed of success for many years,
Jeannle was hardly prepared
for the resounding impact her
hit song had on the music industry and the world. But she
is grateful that her break fin
ally came, even if it did cost
her a husband and left her physically and spiritually exhaust
ed at one point.
Jeannie C. Riley looks at
her astounding carecr from a
new perspective today. "Since
I came to know Jesus as my Saviour, I know why I became
a star. God wanted me to be a
witness for Him and He put me
in a place to meet a lot of peo
ple ^1 over the world. And lie gave me the talents I have,
too, whatever they are," she
says.
The Riley family moved to
Nashville in 1966, her husband
to operate a service station, and
Jeannie to make the rounds on Music Row, often with baby
daughter Kim on her hip. Her
first job was secretarial. It was
while working at it that she recorded her hit song in June, 1968.
Until two years ago, her life
was committed to a career and being a good mother. "But I
wasn't happy. I was «o miser
able and impatient with myself
and life in general," she recalls.
Ultimately, Jeannie entered the hospitals suffering from exhaustion. Her sister, Helen
Scott, brought her a copy of The Living Bible as a combin
ation birthday and get-well
present.“I really thought I’d rather have some exciting gothic no
vel. I had tried reading the Bible
before, but put it away once
and for all as something not worth reading.
When my sister gave me this Living Bible she asked me to
read the book of John and I did. After an hour or so of
reading in my hospiul room,
I felt wonderful! I had a Bible
I could understand. This was so plain a child could read it
and understand.
"I kept reading when I went
back to work and wound up
carrying my Living Bible on
the road. Then I began stopping at little churches along my route, taking part in services."
Jeannie realized that she had
never really trusted the Lord.
When she did that, everything began to change. She and Kim got active in Forest Hills Baptist Church in Nashville. She
attributes her new joy and new
life to "reading the Bible and
hearingthewordsof ourpreach-
er. I went forward one night and
gave my life to Jesus. It was
the best move I ever made,"
she declares.The new Jeannie C. Riley
is still outspoken. Her family
remembers that she always said
what she thought. "I can't help
that," she says. "I just hope the Lord can use my spoken
witness and that I'll always be
willing to speak up for Him."

System is the result of an effort
by the N. C. Department of Human Resources.Technical assistance for the
project was provided by the North Carolina State University Center for Urban Affairs and Community Services. David
Norris, research specialist at
NCSU, and Dr. James Powell of the Department of Computer Science, headed the NCSU
effort to design and develop the computerized system and a method for evaluating the effectiveness of the program.
A catalog of thousands of
agencies and services in the state, the Information Referral System is an example of how
Library News
the state and the University can
work together tn achieve
desired goals Nortis »nys. He
noted that, in addition to meeting the needs of people and increasing the capacity of state
government to respond to
human needs, the project provided an opportunity tor training students and in
creasing faculty and student awareness of real life problems.Although the computerized information will be located in Raleigh, local communities are encouraged to participate directly by setting up walk-in and follow-up services, and by keeping up-dated agency information on file in both the
local and central information banks.The system has the capacity of linking a citizen directly to his local agency for any problem that requires an immediate solution.
The Staff of the Davie County
Public Library would like to thank everyone who helped make the Christmas Open House such an enjoyabi?
evening. The Mocksville
Carolers, accompanied by Mike Hendrix, were excellent, and the skits arranged by Jim
Martin were the surprise of the
evening. There were many
comments on (he Christmas tree, which was decorated so well on December 9th by local children and Girl Scout Troop

The Old Testament is full of stories about babies.
Every story seems to begin with a "begat."
In the New Testament, it is quite different. After the opening chapter of a couple of the Gospels where family lines are described, we come to the first and last birth of a baby. John Is born to Elizabeth and Jesus Is born to Mary, and no more physical births are mentioned in the entire book. Why?
I think the reason is simple. Jesus was born for a divine purpose. "Call him Jesus for he shall save his people from their sins." All other births, even yours
and mine, fail into insignificance In the presence of that Great Incarnation. Suddenly physical birth is unimportant, and spiritual birth receives the spotlight from on High.
"You must be born again," Jesus said to
Nicodemus. Thus He implied, "My birth was
supernatural. God Is my Father. I am His only Son. But you can become His son and My
brother by being born again."
You see. He was born to save people. No one else was ever born for such a purpose.

The Profile Of A
Freshman At State
If college freshmen at North
Carolina State University could
have their way, marijuana would continue to be illegal and
women would receive the same
salary and opportunities for
advancement as men in com
parable positions.
The findings were a portion of a profile of entering freshmen
at State compiled by resear
chers in the University’s
Division of Student Affairs.Some 66 percent of the NCSU
freshmen do not believe that
marijuana should be legalized.
In 1972 a similar study showed
that 60 percent of the freshmen
were indifferent or intolerant in their attitudes toward the use of
marijuana by others and only 25
percent believed that punish
ment for the possession of marijuana should be
eliminated.
A whopping 95 percent of the
I freshmen questioned believe in
some 77 percent do believe that
even if it employs open ad
missions, a college should use the same standards in awarding
degrees to all students.
Three-fourths of the students
believe that students from disadvantaged backgrounds
should not be given preferential treatment in college admissions
and a vast majority do not
believe that college students
attending public universities should pay a greater proportion
of the cost to educate them
selves.A large number of freshmen
believe that faculty promotions
should be based in part on student evaluations. Only 14
percent believe that college
grades should be abolished.
Some 1,239 freshmen are
among the, record enrollment of
over 15,700 studying at NCSU
this fall.

As part of a nationwide effort
to raise immunization levels
among preschool children. Blue
Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina has published a 14-
page booklet Immunization For
Health Protection.
Written in conjunction with
the North Carolina Department of Human Resources, Im
munization For Health
Protection advises parents
which immunizations their
children need and when they
should be administered.
Inoculations required by North
Carolina law are outlined. How
children contract infectious diseases, their symptoms and
potential side effects are ex
plained in the booklet.
Many North Carolina parents,
perhaps unknowingly, are
exposing their children to polio, measles, rubella (German
measles), diphtheria, pertussis
(whooping cough) and tetanus -
diseases which can cause
mental retardation, blindness,
deafness, deformities, or
possibly death."In 1972, 62 per cent of the
children in North Carolina had
not completed the basic series
of immunizations by the time
they reached their second birth
day, the age by which state law
requires completion,” Im munization For Health
Protection notes. The North
Carolina Division of Health
Services estimates this statistic
did not change in 1973.
“Although improving, im
munization levels are still
low,” John Irvin, the state’s
immunization program coor
dinator, said recently. The
possibility of a polio epidemic is
very real in the state unless immunization levels are raised,
he warned.
North Carolina law requires
every child in the state to be
immtinized against diphtheria,
tetanus, pertussis, polio and measles, unless exempted for
medical or religious reasons.
Three DTP (diphtheria,
tetanus, and pertussis) shots
and three doses or oral polio
vaccine are required before a child reaches his first birthday,
according to Irvin. A red
measles vaccination is man
datory before the second bir
thday.A free copy of Immuniiatlon Kor Health Protection may be

UNDERSTANDING OUR ECONOMY
HOW SCIENTISTS ARE HELPIfMG TO FIGHT IWFLATION
The next time you buy
something made out of plas
tics, give a thought to how
you're helping to fight infla
tion with that purchase.
In fact, you — and the
nation's industrial scientists
— are fighting inflation two
ways. One is by saving on expensive energy. Light
weight and durable plastics
products can be frequently produced at' less energy cost
than , an equal poundage of
metal from ita natural ore.
The second way: Many of
our metals are becoming in
creasingly scarce, and that
boosts their cost — to manufacturers and to you. Most
plastics are based on carbon,
hydrogen and other plentiful
elements which are potential
ly available from many
sources. At present, petroleum is the most economically
feasible feedstock for produc
ing plastics.
The use of petroleum and
natural gas as the primary
source of raw materials for
plastics is regarded by many researchers as one of the most
efficient uses of these re
sources, says Ralph L. Hard
ing, Jr., president of The Society of the Plastics In
dustry, Inc., the principal trade association for the plas
tics industry.
In a statement before the Senate Committee on Com
merce on June 10, 1974.
Harding referred to Stanford
Research Institute figures showing that, because of den
sity differences, one pound of
polyethylene can replace between 2 and 5 pounds of
metal or 8 and 10 pounds of
glass in typical end uses."Less energy is needed in
processing plastics on a volu
metric basis and less energy is required for distribution.
On a kilowatt-huurii batis. It
Lakes more energy to produce
one pound of aluminum, cop
per or st«el than an equiva
lent amount of high density
polyethylene or polystyrene,"
he explained
The 27 billion pounds of
plastics produced in 1973
amounted to only 1.3 percent
of U.S. petroleum consumption. Plastics are a part of
petrochemicals, and all petro
chemicals used about 6 percent of the nation's petroleum
and gas supply. Petrochemi
cals cover a very broad spectrum of products from man-
made fibers, chemicals and
other synthetics, to fertilizers
and a multitude of materials
which spin off through the
entire industrial world.
The Shah of Iran has remarked that oil is too valu
able to burn, and that it
ought to be reserved for petrochemicals.
Stanford Research Institute
bears this out: According to
its figures, gasoline is worth about 2 cents per pound as
motor fuel; the hydrocarbons
in it are worth 3 to 5.5 cents
per pound if converted to
etjiyiene. If the ethylene is
then converted to polyethy
lene, the same hydrocarbons are worth 11 to 16 cents per
pound, and finally, if the
polyethylene is made into a
cross-linked polyethylene for use in wire and cable insu
lation. the hydrocarbons are
worth S2 a pound.
This is true through all the
plastii's and petrochemical in
dustry-, which uses these synthetic building blocks to pro
duce even more valuable
products,
James E, Guillet, professor of chemistry at the Universi
ty of Toronto in Canada, says
"since the energy cost of
plastics is lower than that of
competitive materials — and
the one thing that seems to
be certain about the future is that the cost of energy will go
up considerably — it would
seem likely that plastics will continue to retain a substan
tial advantage over competi
tive materials , , , ,
"Contrary, therefore, to popular opinion, far from re
ducing the production of plas
tics, the energy crisis should
encourage a further expansion in the use of plastic materials
for all purposes,"
For another reason, too, plastics may become a re
placement for many of our
traditional metals: they're becoming scarce. In 1972 we imported 87 percent of the
bauxite and alumina used to
produce our aluminum, 92
percent of our cobalt. 93 percent of the platinum
group, 95 percent of our
manganese and all of our chromium and (in.
Is there any wonder, then,
that scientists and consumers alike, are coming around to
thinking that plastics are
among the most useful materials of our time — and perhaps of all times?
In the glory, there Is polg- j nancy, too."No room in the inn."
The words echo across the
ages, and rejoicing Is tinged with bittersweet. That — as in
the words of the famous carol, “Away in a Manger," — "the little Lord Jesus” had "no crib
for His bed” weighs on the
heart of Christianity.
Even here at the manger there is the shadow of suffering In store for the Son of God,
of trials soon to begin with the
flight into Egypt, and to end on the Cross.
But the glory prevails. In the miracle of the humble
manger, and ahead, through the shadows of the future,
through anguish and agony, shines the radiance of Easter.
It is Christmas, and Chris-

Cookies For Gifting
(i
Traditional Family Project
“Gregg is death on them,” says his father, “He eats more cookies than he decorates.”
Making cookies at Ciiristmastime is a
traditional family project for the Glenn
Millers and everyone does their share.
Their all time favorite Christmas cookie
recipe was handed down from Glenn’s
mother, who lives in New Jersey. Even as
a boy himself, Glenn remembers the
evenings his entire family spent making
cookies.
After Glenn and his wife, Doris, were
married his mother’s “White Sugar
Cookie” recipe also became a traditional
baking project in his own home. And just
as soon as the children were old enough,
they were taught to do their share.
rts like an assembly line. Doris makes
the cookie dough, rolls it paper thin and
does the cutting. As soon as the cookie
sheet is filled, the children, Karen age 7,
and five-yearK)ld Gregg, decorate them
with with pretty color

I sugar toppings.
', he puts them in
the oven, sets timer for the exact

number of minutes and then takes them
out.
“We usually make over 1,000 cookies
each year”, Doris said.
However, they are not ail kept at home.
Home made goodies make excellent
remembrance gifts and they always make
enough for family, friends, and neighbors.
Doris says they also make' them^pr the
kids parties at school and play sehbdl. Ju^
recently she says she “conned Glenn into
making 200 cookies for Karen’s second
grade at Mocksville Elementary School”.
Although the kitchen at their home on
Magnolia Avenue, Mocksville becomes
covered with flour dust and the children
eat lots more cookies than they should,
Glenn and Doris agree that this is great
family fun.
Doris also makes other cookies like her
drop cocoanut cookies and the tasty
chocolate ones with which she uses a
cookie press, she says one of her favorite
year-round cookies are the “Toll House”
cookies. But none are as much fun for the
family as grandma Miller’s “White Sugar
Cookies”.
The secret of making these little
Christmas cookies, Glenn says, is rolling
them almost paper thin. “They are not
nearly as good if they are too thick.”
And when they’re made just right, he
added, “Betcha can’t eat just one!”
During their years of making cookies,
the Millers have learned that the
aluminum cookie cutter are much better
than plastic. They have a thinner and
sharper edge for cutting the dough.
Although the sugar shortage and ex
tremely high prices have made a great
deal of difference to those who do lots of
baking for the holidays, Doris says she
bought a bag of sugar “just for my
cookies.”
"It just wouldn’t be Christmas without
our cookies.”
Doris agreed to share her recipe for the
Miller’s traditional “White Sugar Cookies”
with our readers.
White Sugar Cookie
1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup fine granulated sugar
2 eggs

3 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons vanilla
Roll to approximately 1-16 in. thickness
and cut into desired shapes with cookie
cutters. Sprinkle with colored sugar

Glenn’s job is the easiest of all. He puts the cookies in the oven.Making cookies is a family project for Glenn and Dorii Miller and their two children, Karen,
age 7, and five-year-old Gregg.

Save Christmas Smiles In Holiday Pictures
New York (Ed) — Christmas memories are-in large part—made up of smiles. They are smiles of anticipation as the tree is trimmed, shy-but-proud smiles as the
Christmas angels get ready for the Church pageant, and the smile of pure ecstasy
as small child meets Christmas puppy.
You can save the smiles,
and all the other wonderful moments of the holidays,
with your Kodak pocket 10
Instam atic camera. Now available in a special Kodak
pocket Smile Saver kit, the
camera is the smallest of the pocket cameras, yet it takes
the same big 3% by 4%-inch p rin ts as the other five
cameras.
Capturing the joys of the holidays in pictures is not
difficult, but it does require
being alert to opportunities.Keep your camera handy with
extender and magicube in place, so that you can photo
graph expressions and reac
tions as they occur. The can
did naturalness which results is one of the most important
ingredients of a truly memorable picture.
When small girl meets small puppy under the Christmas tree, you and your camera should be there, ready to shoot on their level.
DurinK the tree trimmine, try shooting at a slight upward angle, to make the plain walls and ceiling your background.
Try also to shoot from the level of your subject, even though this may require get
ting down on the floor. As
you shoot, keep an eye on the background and, if possible,
adjust your angle to keep it simple and uncluttered. In
the midst of Christmas morn
ing package opening, this admittedly might not be pos
sible, but this is one time an
atmosphere of some clutter is allowable.
When you’re shooting with
flash indoors, remember to
avoid aim ing directly at highly polished surfaces and
mirrors. Shooting from an angle will not only solve the
problem of a reflected hot
spot, it will also give you an opportunity to make some in
teresting reflection shots.
W hen the holiday fun moves outdoors, tuck your
cam era into the special
pocket Smile Saver kit carrying case and take it along.
And then, when your holi
day prints have all been assembled, select your favorite
two for display in the two-
sided transparent print frame
which also came with the kit.
A tinsel halo and wings can transform the children's choir into a multitude of angels as they retell the Christmas story. Be sure to preserve a picture of your particular angel.
Letter Delivered
30 Years Late
This week a letter is being
delivered just 30 years and 30 days after it was written; but no
one can blame the Post Office.
The letter was discovered on
the USS North Carolina Bat
tleship Memorial last week
when one of the Battleship’s
desks was being disassembled so it could be moved to another
part of the ship. The letter, ,
although yellowed, tattered and
brittle* was still very legible,
even to the uncancelled 6 cent
Air Mail stamp.B attleship M em orial
Superintendent, Captain C. B.
Jennings, USN,(Ret.) recon
structed the probable sequence
of events from the evidence on
the face of the envelope. Seaman First Class Glenn
Hopkins, now living at Attica,
N. Y., was stationed on the
Cruiser USS Miami in
November 1944. On November
17, he wrote his cousin,
Reginald Hopkins in Alexander, New York. Hopkins then ad
dressed the envelope, affixed
proper postage and put the
letter and envelope in the hands
of the ship’s censor, A WWII
wartime requirement. The censor must have read the
letter because his initials,
L.E.C., are on the envelope.
How the letter became en
tangled in the inner mechanism
of a desk, how it got from the
USS Miami to the USS North Carolina; these are mysteries
which may never be solved.
Cottage Cheese
Cottage cheese is so named
because in pioneer days, it was made by the homemaker so she
could use the milk after the
cream had been skimmed for
butter making. Cottage cheese
could be called the solid form
mild because it is the curd or coagulated protein of fresh,
pasteurized milk, cooked in its _
own whey, then drained and'
washed.

Christmas
Safety
Christmas is the merriest
time of the year for most of us.
But every holiday season homes
go up in smoke, children swal
low decorations and people re
ceive shocks when stringing
electric lights,
To prevent Christmas gai
ety from turning into disaster,
the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission recom
mends that you consider the fol
lowing safety tips:
• Evergreens become
very flammable when
dry, so make sure the
tree you buy is fresh
by checking the nee
dles for brittleness.
Store the tree out
doors until you arc
ready to put it up.
Water will get to the
limbs of the tree bet
ter if you cut about
one inch off the
trunk. Keep the tree
well watered and away
from heat sources.
Take the tree down
right after Christmas
or as soon as it shows
signs of drying out
• If you are going tii
buy a plastic tree,
look for a latx'l statmg
the tree is "flame te-
sistant ' or "flame re
tardant." W'hile
metal trees arc not
tlaniinablc, ihcy Jo
conduct electricity.
Use colored spotlights
rather than electric
lights on a metal tree.
No matter what kind
of tree you have, make
sure it is not blocking
an exit or doorway,
• Many holiday acci
dents are caused by
trees catching fire as a
result of defective or
overheated electric
lights or defective
electric cords. If your
electric lights arc get
ting old, or the elec
tric cord is frayed it's
better to replace them
than take a chance on
getting shocked or
starting a fire. When
shopping for new
lights, check for a
lalx-l stating that they
have been safety ap
proved by a reputable
laburatory. Indoor
lights should never be
usc^l outdoors. Keep
extension cords out of
the reach of children
and away from walk
ways. All lights
should be turned off
before leaving the
house or going to bed,«
Analysis of actual case
histories conducted by the
Commission, reveals that a
large percentage of Christmas
injuries occurred among chil
dren who bit into a decoration
or swallowed one whole.
Small and breakable orna
ments and lights should be
kept far out of the reach of
children and pets.

In Search Of The American Dream XII:
iKilllnr's Note: This Is the 12th of I« articles exploring
IlK'lliriiie, III Senrch of the American Dream. Tills article rtlsciissrs the Inevitable role of science In the growth of
Amrrlca-anil the consternation attendant to that growth.
The author is Stiles professor of American studies at
Texas University.)
By WII.MAM 11. GOETZMANN
Copyright. I!)7I. Kegents of the University of California
nislrlliuted by Copley News Service.
The American Dream lias always been related to
scientific progress for two important reasons: (1) to survive and propser in a vast wilderness, its people
needed new techniques and new knowledge about tlieir
environment and (2) America was found^ in an age in
whicii tlie scientific revolution set the intellectual style.
Thus Americans could make use of European scientific discoveries and inventions rather than having to start
from nothing. Accordingly, science in early America was
cosmopolitan.
Philosophically Americans viewed all nature as a
"great chain of being” reaching from the lowest organism to the angels. It was a static creation of the
mind of God. To discover and classify the components of
the "chain of being” revealed the thoughts of the Creator
and by implication the future prospects of all mankind.
American science in the early republic conlributed greatly to this larger cosmic vision, but it was also very
practical in promoting the American Dream. In 1818
Benjamin Silliamn of Vale founded The American
Journal of Science, devoted to the “useful" sciences and arts, and for more than sixty years it was the most
important scientific journal in the United States.
Beyond this each of the states began to sponsor natural
history surveys aimed at making an inventory of
exploitable natural resources. Teams of geologists,
mineralogists, paleontologists, zoologists, botanists and cartographers blanketed New York, for example, from
1836-1843, minutely examining its contours and its
economic prospects.
While the states feverishly conducted their resource
surveys, the federal government sponsored exploration
across North America. Lewis and Clark, instructed by
Jefferson to make a record of all interesting animals, plants, and rocks, journeyed up the Missouri River and
down the Columbia to the Pacific in 1804-6. Maj. Stephen
H. Long’s 1819 expedition across the Great Plains saw the
country as an exotic "Great American Desert." John
Charles Fremont made a grand reconnaissance of the
Rocky Mountains, the Pacific Slope and the Great Basin in 1843-4.
Maj. William H. Emory explored and mapped the
southwestern boundary of the United States; and Lt.
Gouverneur K. Warren's teams of explorers in 1853
conducted transcontinental reconnaissances in search of
a railroad route to the Pacific. All of these expeditions provided the first resource inventories of the American
West, revealed its grandeur and stimulated the interests
of fur traders and pioneers.
Most of these continental explorations were led by
Army officers, but the Navy was active, too. From 1838 to
1841, Lt. Charles Wilkes led a fleet of ships with scientists
and artists aboard. The expedition proved that the Antarctic was a continent, mapped the South Pacific and
cruised the coasts of Oregon. In 1855 Lt. Matthew
Fontaine Maury published his “The Physical Geography
of the Sea," creating the science of oceanography.
By the 1840s in America the sheer volume of scientific
data that had been collected presented a problem of
classification and organization, But in 1846, with a bequest of James Smithson, an Englishman, the
Smithsonian Institution was established, and it came to
serve as a national clearinghouse for scientific
information. By the 1860s, however, even the Smithsonian
proved to be inadequate in this role, and Congress turned
to several other devices. In 1862 it granted land in each state for a public college whose focus was to be primarily
scientific and practical. The colleges were to ipake it
possible for everyone across the country to have acc^s to
scientific knowledge and scientific education as tools for
achieving the American Dream. The land grant colleges
were later supplemented by massive federal bureaus for disseminating information, like the United States
Geological Survey.
In the post Civil War era American science had come of
age. Enthusiasm for it, especially its practical
application in resource exploitation and technology, was unbounded.
The publication in 1859 of Charles Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species” was the most dramatic theoretical
breakthrough in 19th Century science. Darwin’s
evolutionary hypothesis of survival of the fittest through
natural selection was championed by Asa Gray, a
botanist at Harvard, and it was soon accepted by much of
the scientific community. Public acceptance of Darwin’s
evolutionary scheme was greatly aided by the Publicist E. L. Youmans, editor of Popular Science Monthly, and
by the writings of the British philosopher Herbert
Spencer, whose “Principles of Sociology’’ was a best
seller in the United States.
He transformed Darwin’s “struggle for existence” into
"survival of the fittest,” a world view that saw thewhole human race inevitably improving as its weaker members
failed to survive the demands of the natural and social

environment. Spencer’s version of Darwin’s hypothesis
provided a perfect rationalization for the rapaciously
competitive business practices of late 19th Century America, and a "scientistic” Darwinist myth gradually
replaced the pastoral nature myths of earlier America.
But Darwinism was fraught with many dangers. In 1874
Charles Hodge, a Princeton theologian, published “What
is Darwinism? ’’ correctly pointing out that Darwin’s true
hypothesis, contrary to Spencer’s teleological interpretation, was based on the idea of chance mutations
of species and hence a chance universe that by
implication denied the role of God.
Darwinism and Spencerism also caused consternation
among reformers. Spencer’s version declared reform to
be a foolish and harmful tampering with nature’s
inevitable processes. This view was made explicit by one
of America’s foremost sociologists, William Graham Sumner of Yale, who positively embraced the “root-hog-
or-die" philosophy. Likewise those who accepted the
chance universe also had little reason to support reform
activities, since all progress or regress was due to chance
anyway. Others, like Edward Bellamy in his utopian
socialist novel “looking Backward" (1888) and Thorstein Veblen in his “The Engineers and the Price System”
(1921), appeared to call' for utopias based upon an
inevitably evolving technological juggernaut.
Still others, such as the sociologist Lester Frank Ward,
took a middle view and argued that man had evolved to
the point where his rational intelligence could control his own destiny.
Asa Gray saw “chance” itself as the working of God’s mysterious providence.
A satisfactory solution to the problem of the chance
universe posed by Darwin was eventually formulated by
the American progmatists, especially C. S. Peirce,
William James and John Dewey. Accepting the logic of
chance, Peirce saw reality as a series of problems; their
solution forced man to depend upon a scientific method that looked to the consequences of an idea of hypothesis
and assessed those consequences according to a calculus
of probability. James saw reality as the data of
consciousness, truth as the consequence of belief, and a
correct solution when the problem disappeared for the
individual. Dewey was more socially minded than James
and he felt that real problems were social problems.Dewey soon became interested in educating the young
for problem-solving and the socialization process. His
University School at Chicago became the most famous
school of applied pragmatism. For Dewey, the more
people intelligently involved in the decision-making
process in a democracy, the greater the cultural
progesss. As utopian pragmatist, Dewey had developed an ethic of means which he called “instrumentalism.”
Clearly the pragmatists could not only live with science
but they positively thrived on the uncertainties of the
Darwinian chance universe. For them the new “open-
endedness’ of science promised a freedom that was
synonymous with the American Dream.“Why can't a woman be more like a man?”
The pragmatists stood in sharp contrast to the shrewd
historian and cultural analyst. Henry Adams, who
declared, “chaos is all that science can logically assert..
. Chaos was the law of nature; Order was the dream of
man."But while Adams was asserting the futility of science,
Charlotte Perkins Gilman was employing all the data of
both natural and social science to re-define the role of
women. She asserted that not Darwinism, not entropy,
but history and outmoded mores controlled human
progress. Limitations on women, Gilman argued, were “disadvantageous to our progress as individuals and as a
race.” While Adams, world-weary at the end of the
century, was scorning science and existentially “opting
out” of America’s mechanical civilization, Charlotte
Perkins Gilman was in the forefront of those who saw in
science a justification for the Equality of women in all
walks of life. In their own way, they, like many before them, were linking science to the democratic ideal.

Modern woman, fpcls imprisoned and otherwise
pul upon in a man's world,
would do well to look backwards occasionally and see that indeed
she has come a long way.
Household chores alone,
according to Mrs. Joan Triplett, of Banner Elk, North Carolina,
were enough to keep her busy
from dawn till dusk, much of the
time being spent in the
preparation of food, Mrs, Triplett describes some of the
pioneer homemaker,s
responsibilities in the following
paragraphs:"In the 1800’s until the late
1930's. being a housewife in the
region of Appalachia was
certainly a full-time job. A woman had to be all things to
her family-wife, mother, nurse,
gardener, laborer, and, of
course, cook. Her day began
before sun-up, and often con
tinued until after sun-down, She
was the prime example of womankind producing above
and beyond the expected and
doing it all with a spirit of love,
kindness and thankfulness.
"The crude log cabins, built
with sweat, toil and love by her husband and neighbors, were
transformed from crude cabin
to lovely home by her per
severance. The fireplace was a
necessity for warmth. It also
provided a means of preparing meals. If she were fortunate
enough to own a wood-burning
cook stove, it was the center of
all the activity in her kitchen,
and her pride and joy. The task
of keeping enough wood to burn
often fell to her hands, at least until the ‘youngins’ were old
enough to chop and carry wood.
"Water was usually within a
short walk from the cabin door.
In the early morning the
mountain housewife could
usually be seen with a bucket in each hand, going to the spring to
fetch enough water to start the
morning meal.
"The preliminary tasks of
starting the fire, carrying the
water, and perhaps milking the cow taken care of, the mountain
woman would be ready to start
the morning meal. Grits'were
poured into boiling salted
water. While they were
cooking, coffee would be ground
and put on to boil, then the lard, buttermilk and flour stirred
together for biscuits.
Fatback provided a bit of
meat, and the grease left from
frying it was the basis for a big
pan of gravy. The addition of a
ball of home churned butter,
some molasses or honey, and
tall glasses of cold milk made a delicious and nutritious break
fast. The odors from the kit-

Hunters Find Plenty Of Deer
“ Everywhere I looked I saw deer,” said Ray
Bernhardt of Rt. 13, Salisbury. “I couldn’t believe it. I counted 25 deer in just a few hours.”
Bernhardt and his son Tony found deer to be plen-
.tiful on a recent hunting trip m the East Rowan area.
They killed two bucks. One was an eight-pointer tha^
weighed 210 pounds. The other — a six-pointer —
tipped the scales at 155. It was Tony’s first deer hunt
and he got one of the bucks.
"All I saw was those big horns,” Tony said. He re
vealed the buck was hit two times but still managed to run away.
“ I wasn't about to leave the wounded deer in the
woods,” said Bernhardt. The father and son trailed
the buck for five hours before they caught up with
him. The big buck stopped about 30 yards from another group of hunters.
The two bucks were shot out of a herd of II deer.
Bernhardt said he saw only three bucks in the herd.
“When we shot, the deer scattered like a covey of
quail,” Bernhardt explained, “but surprisingly, they
returned in a short time.” When the Bernhardts
.dressed their deer, they had over 200 pounds of meat.
Daugherty Takes Contest Lead
A five-point buck taken by David Daugherty, Jr., of
Landis, has taken the lead in the bowhunter division
of Today’s Sportsman deer contest.
DAVID DAUGHERTY . . . leads bow-hunting division
Daugherty killed the buck near Gold Hill. He
downed the buck from about 25 yards away. He was hunting from a tree stand.
Illegal Deer Killing Reported
Rowan Wildlife Protectors and the Rowan Sheriff
Department have received many reports of illegal
deer hunting.
"We receive calls almost every day of hunters kill
ing does,” said Wildlife Protector Dale Smith. “We
have also received a number of calls on firelighting."
That's sliining a light at night on deer and killing
'them.
Smith said he received at least 12 calls on firelight
ing tills season. He added that a car patrols the Eat
itowan area almost every night in search of
violators. Smith reported Uiat four men were charged
;with firelighting during the past week.
“ Many people do not realise they can be charged

wrestlers have dropped their
first four matches in what
Roeder termed “a building

“We’ve got a lot of young boys
out there and they are making
mistakes that young boys make,” Roeder said.“There are seven wrestlers in
their first year,” he continued.
“We’re building this year and
looking to be real strong next
year.”
Curtis Stiles has been the standout for Davie so far with a
3-1 individual record and all the

Dear Editor:
On behalf of the Davie County Sheriff's Department per
sonnel, each one of us would like
to thank all the business firms,
and each patron for their most
appreciated contribution and
tor the buying of a calendar ad
for our yearly calendar. We
would like to greatly express our appreciation.
With the money for our
commission on the selling of the
calendar ads we will be able to
purchase part of our law en
forcement uniforms. The uniforms are very costly and the county does not pay for
them. So by selling the ads is
one means of paying for the
uniforms. Thanking you, we

By Dr. J. W. Pou
Agricultural Specialist
Wachovia Bank h Trust Co., N.A.
A poultry expert at North Carolina State U ni
versity has predicted rising prices for broilers, eggs
and turkeys in the months ahead.
“Unless prices increase in the next few months,
many producers will go bankrupt,” said Dr. W . C.
Mills Jr., specialist in charge of N. C. State U ni
versity’s extension poultry work.
M ills said all three industry segments — turkeys,
eggs and broilers — have been in a depressed finan
cial condition for about 10 months and producers
have lost millions of dollars.
North Carolina is a major poultry state, ranking
third in turkeys, fourth in broilers and fifth in eggs.
Incpine from these enterprises last year reached
$552 million.
“Some producers have given up and gone out of
business, while others have been hanging on by the
skin of their teeth,” said Mills.
He said the situation had been brought about by
rising costs, particularly for feed, without a cor
responding rise in producers’ selling prices.
“This would be a good time for consumers to buy
turkeys and broilers, both of which are nutritious,
high in protein and low in fat, and it would also be
a good time to buy eggs,” M ills said. “No one can
predict when — or even whether — prices to con
sumers will ever be this low again.”
The specialist said he saw “very little relief on
feed prices,” which are expected to remain high for
another year.
In January the farm blend price received for eggs
was 59 cents a dozen and the cost of production was
about 45 cents, leaving a profit of 14 cents for the
producer, M ills said. By the last of August the
blend price to farmers had dropped to 45',^ cents,
costs had risen to 56 cents, and farmers were losing
about 10 cents a dozen on eggs.
M ills said broiler producers have been losing
money since last November. Early this year losses
were as high as 8 to 10 cents a pound, or about 30
cents per bird.
In late August, prices reached 42 cents a pound,
which Mills termed, “just about the break-even
point.” In mid-September the North Carolina f.o.b.
dock price was 38.7 cents.
“As for turkeys, since the first of the year pro
ducers have been losing $2 per head on hens and
$4 per head on toms,” M ills said. “In late summer,
prices started rising and producers then were just
about breaking even on hens and losing around $2
a bird on toms.”
In early September, the specialist said, it was
costing about 36 cents a pound to produce toms and
they were selling for 27 cents.
Feed is the major cost in poultry' and egg produc
tion. On the average, about 4.5 pounds of feed are
required to produce a dozen eggs, 3.25 pounds to
produce a pound of turkey and about 2.2 pounds to
produce a pound of broiler.
Among the most Important
documents in North Carolina
history is Iho Carolina Charter
of ififi;) which granted to eight
l.ords Proprietors a huge [jortioii (if the new world-part of
which is now North Carolina.
And the valuable 1683 document still exists in the
North Carolina Museum of
lli.s lory--preserved and
protecled for everyone to see
and .ippreciate,Bui it was not always so. The
charter has belonged to North
Carnllna only since 1947, when it
was purchased from a
Ijookseller in Surrey, England and brought to Raleigh after a
trip of 3,000 miles and nearly
Ihrce centuries in time.
The charter is an official document granting a vast area
of North America as a reward to
eight faithful followers and
advocates of'Charles II, newly
restored to the English
monarchy after the reign of Oliver Cromwell.
On Dec. 12, 1947 Christopher
Crittenden, director of the
Department of Archives and
History, received the charter
for the State of North Carolina from the Deputy Collector of
Customs in Durham, N.C.
But what of the charter and
the years between 1663 and
December. 1947? Nobody
knoww for sure, but the
guesses, assumptions and possibilites have been a subject
of lively interest on both sides of
the Atlantic.William S. Powell in his
iKioklet Carolina Charter of lfin:i
explores in depth the
background of the charter and the probable course it took
before arriving in the Capital
City in 1947.
There was no word at all on
the charter from 1729 until 1947
when it turned up in a Surrey bookseller's shop for sale. Prior
to 1729, it is thought the charter
would almost certainly have
been in the hands of one of the
proprietors.
News of the discovery was received with great enthusiasm
in North Carolina and neigh
boring states, since only six
slates had their original charters, and historians,
librarians and archivists had
long assumed the North
Carolina document simply had
not survived the intervening
years.
Questions immediately arose.
First of all, was this copy
genuine'? Was it a single copy or one of several "originals?”
Where had the document bben
all these years? Who had had
lx)ssession and did he have full authority to sell? Could a clear
title be oblnined?
Through research by mem
bers of British and American
historians, librarians and ar
chivists solved some of these questions.
Many kinds of experts wore
consulted who examined the
parchment, the handwriting, the lettering, the phraseology,
and all other aspects of the
charter. All agreed it was in
deed genuine.
Then an exhaustive search
was begun to try to trace the charter's whereabouts since
1779, when North Carolina
Ijccame a royal colony.Powell reprints letters that
suggest that after 1729, the
Charter would no longer have
iK'on valid, and therefore, it
certainly would have held less importance. The 16C3 document
was the fifth Carolina charter
granted and later voided, so it is
not unlikely that the 1663 in
strument would have also lost importance after the transfer to
Iho crown.
Powell's booklet explains:
"The probability is, I suggest,
that on 11 December 1773 the
Charter of Carolina was sent to
the Attorney General at Lincoln's Inn (roughly equivalent
to a modern law school), and, as
far as one can see, remained
unmentioned until its discovery
at a small sale in Hertford about
213 years later, among the effects of a family whose con
nection with Carolina is, to all
intents and purposes, non
existent,"
It was learned that the
document passed through the
hands of several families- doscendants of William Baker-
and was finally sold to a
bookseller when the Baker
estate, Bayfordberry, was sold
in 1946, A London bookseller
had been called in to examine
the books and papers of the
estate prior to the sale, but records show no mention of the
Carolina charter.But how had the Baker
family, with no connection to
North Carolina, obtained the
charter?
It is assumed that after the
voiding, the charter was sent to the library at Lincoln’s Inn.
There probably one of the Baker
ancestors, interested in old
documents, gained possession
of the charter, quite openly and honestly, since it was no longer
valid.
After that, ownership passed ^ from one member of the family
lo another, while the charter
itself was probably stored away
in some attic or even some outbuilding at Bayfordberry
until the London bookseller was
asked to examine the estate’s
Ijooks and papers.After the determination that
the charter was genuine and the
guesses at its probably hiding
spot for more than 200 years,
another dilemma faced the
North Carolinians who wanted the charter: how to pay for it?
The asking price was ap
proximately $10,000 (2,500
(Kiunds),
A legislative appropriation
w#s impossible because the legislature was not in session. ,
The Attorney General ruled that
the use of contingency and
emergency funds for the
charter would not be legal.
However, an appeal in per
sonal letters from former Gov.,1, Melville Broughton to public
spirited citizens requesting
funds brought response. The
seller graciously reduced the
price to about $8,000 ( 2,000
(xiunds) if the document was to be purchased by or for the State
of North Carolina.By the lime the trannsaction
was completed, devaluation of
the pound sterling had further
reduced the price to ap
proximately $6,000. .Thus the State acquired af
valuable document which sets
forth many of the broad rights
and freedoms now taken for
granted.The precious manuscript was
received on a cold December
day in Durham and promptly
placed in a bank vault until a
suitable fireproof display case
could be built and placed in the Hall of History (now the
Museum of History). The
modoni safe there permits each
page to swing out in a frame
allowing full examination of all four handwritten illuminated
pages.North Carolina thus became
the seventh and probably the
last state to obtain its original
charter, Powell adds. f
Powell's booklet contains, in addition to the charter, brief
biographies of each of the eight
Lords Proprietors, and traces
the lineage of each to 1729, when
North Carolina became a royal
colony. Many of today’s names
of counties, areas or towns are reminiscent of the Lords
Proprietors, including Carteret,
Craven, Albemarle, Bath,
Hyde, Tyrrell, Granville and
Bertie. i

Drinking And Blood Alcohol
Concencentration Explained
By WPS Loner
“ Many persons probably
think all this talk about blood
alcohol concentration is a bunch
of muitibo jumbo," says Dr.
John Ewing, director of the
UNC Center for Alcohol Studies
in Chapel Hill.
"But the idea is easy to un
derstand once you look at a few
simple facts," he says.
There are five major factors
Judy Sizemore
Completes Army
Finance Course
Army Private Judy C.
Sizemore, daughter of James S.
Sizemore, Route 7, Mocksville,
N. C., completed a finance
specialist course at the U. S.
Army Finance School, Ft.
Benjamin Harrison, Ind.
During the course, students
are trained in the payment of
civilian and military personnel,
handling of travel allowances
and commercial accounts, and
accounting. They also receive
instruction in general military
Ihcil dclcrinlne blood alcohol
concentration. They arc - body
weight, fatness nr leanness,
amount of alcohol consumed,
slate of the stomach and
passage of lime.
Blood alcohol concentration
simply means the amount of
alcohol in the blood. The figure
".10 per cent" means one-tenth
of one per cent of the blond in
llie body is alcohol.
Body weight must be con
sidered in determining blood
alcohol concentration because a
large person has more water in
his body than a small person.
And water is what dilutes the
alcohol. The more water in a
person’s body, the lower his
blood alcohol concentration will
be.
Fatness and leanness are of
minor importance. A lean
person has a higher percentage
of water in his tissues than a (at
person, so his blood alcohol
concentration will be slightly
lower for a given amount of
alcohol consumed.
The amount of alcohol drunk
is obviously a key factor, for the
more alcohol one has con
sumed, the higher his blood
subjects. alcohol concentration will be.
Hcer contains five per ccnl
alcohol, table wines 12 per cent,
fortified wines 20 per cent, and
Hfi proof whiskey 43 per cent.
The slate of the stomach is
important because a person
lu'comes intoxicated more
<|uickly on an empty stomach
Mian on a full one. Alcohol is
absoi'lK'd most rapidly after it
leaves the stomach, and food in
the stomach lends lo hold up the
alcohol in the stomach and
release It more gradually. Any
lood will delay intoxication, but
eventually the alcohol must be
ai)sorl)ed (burned up by the
Ixidy I. Holding i t in the stomach
with fond can be dangerous
iK'cause it ma^ lead lo a false
security, an overconsumption of
alcohol and drunkenness later.
The passage of time is im-
|x>rlant because alcohol must be
burned up in the body just like
food, producing calories as it
l)urns. Alcohol burns at th>.
approximate rate of .ni per cent
every 40 minutes. So, if your
blood alcohol concentration is
.13 percent it takes two hours to
gel down to .10 per cent. Or
from .16 per cent it takes four
hours to get down to .10 per cent

miles east of Mocksville.
Involved was a 1968 Plymouth
operated by Annie Luper
Howard, 43, of Advance Rt. 2

vestigation showed that the
Howard vehicle had almost
slopped in travel lane prior to
making a left turn into a private
di'ive. The Nelson vehicle came .
around a curve and the operator
failed to realize in time that the
Howard vehicle had stopped
and struck same in rear.
Damage to the Howard
vehicle was estimated at $160

"Dendrochronology”
BY GLORIA JONES
Counting and measuring tree
rings may seem a less than
fascinating occupation, but the
study of "dendrochronology” opens the door on past
civilizations for a North
Carolina State University
professor.
Dr. A.C. Barefoot, professor of forestry research and leader
of Wood Product’s Extension at
NCSU, spent last year under a
Fuibright Scholarship at Oxford
University. He conducted research on archeological
dating in the city of Winchester,
the earliest seat of a unified
English government.
Barefoot relates that in the
9th Century King Alfred, who led the first united efforts at
repelling the conquest of in
vaders, established his royal
castle at Winchester, about 65
miles from London. One of his
royal successors, William the
for your
child's safety
The home bathroom is the
scene of thousands of childhood
accidents every year. Many of
them can be avoided, if atten
tion is paid to basic safety pro
cedures, says Dr. Albert H.
Domm, child safety specialist
and medical director of the Pru
dential Insurance Company.
According to Dr. Domm, a
great number of infants are the
victims of bathroom mishaps.
“One of the
d e ta ils I
stress most
to parents of
those in the
newborn to
toddler stage
is that they
must never
leave the
child alone
Dr. Albert in the bath-
H. Domm tub, even for
an instant. It only takes a few
short seconds for a child's tiny
lungs to fill up with water.”
He also cautions parents to
test the temperature of the bath
with their elbow before placing
the baby in the tub. “Parents
who overlooic this simple step
are placing their toddler in dan
ger of being scalded," points
out Dr. Domm.
He recommends a thrownig
for the bathroom floor and a
rubber mat for the bottom of
the tub to guard against slips
and falls.
Electrical shock is another po
tential bathroom hazard. “Wet
hands and feet greatly increase
the possibility of shock,” warns
Dr. Domm, adding that no elec
trical outlet or appliance should
be within a child's reach in the
bathtub.
Conqueror, also maintained his
residence in the city.
Winchester Cathedral, which .still stands and serves as a
church, was begun about 1080
during King William’s reign.
But both rulers were preceded by Roman conquerors who left
a network of roads which lie
beneath successive historical
strata at the archeological sites in Winchester.
Victorian buildings stood on
the Winchester Cathedral
Green before 1961 when they wore leveled by bulldozers to
make way for an urban renewal
project. When the underlying
strata revealed evidence of past history, the urban project
was delayed to provide an
opportunity for archeological
exploration.
Barefoot, who began working
at the site during the summer of 1964 under a cooperative
project with UNC-Chapel Hill
and Duke University, has been
concerned with architectural
dating of Winchester Cathedral and an adjoining dig on the
Cathedral Green. He has some
wood samples from the
cathedral roof sturctures which
date from the years 1100 to 1600.
Choir stall wood samples go back to the year 1308, and wood
from the tombs of ancient bishops date from 1200 to 1300.
Barefoot explains that ar
cheological researchers cannot
rely on living trees for
chronological dating, but must
return to old structures like Winchester Cathedral to collect
samples of wood with known
architectural dates.
Counting tree rings reveals
the age of the tree when it was
cut, but not the year in which it
was cut or the current age of the wood, he says.
However, there is more to
architectural dating than
merely counting and measuring
the width of tree rings. First,
the surface of the wood sample must be polished so that the
rings are clearly visible After
the rings are counted and
measured under a microscope
with a dendrometer, trees for
each year must be charted and
compared with charts of known years for trees in the same
region.
Barefoot says all the in
formation, which includes
mathematical calculations and
sUtistical reliability data, then goes to a computer before the
researcher can establish the
precise age of a wood sample or
the year in which a structure was built.

It is one of the mysteries of the science of genetics that
two brothers, born of the same parents, reared in the same
surroundings and exposed to the same influences and
environment, can develop totally different personalities and
widely divergent character traits.
1 once knew a family with two boys who were perfect
examples of this peculiar quirk of nature. To conceal their
identity, I’ll call them John and Bill and I will change a few
details, but not the basic facts. The mother and father of
John and Bill were considered fairly wealthy by the
standards of their community. They lived in a beautiful
home, gave generous donations to their church and charities
and led a very normal, wholesome life. Even at an early age
John and Bill showed unmistakeable patterns of behavior
that were so different you would never suspect they were
brothers.
Both attended the same prep school - two years apart.
John was serious-minded - an A-pIus student. Bill was
flighty, fun-loving and irresponsible. He barely skinned
through his classes. During his third year of college, John
decided that he would like to be a surgeon, and he planned
his post graduate courses at a well-known medical school.
College life was anathema to Bill. He was on the point of
becoming a drop-out - when one morning the boys
received a phone call from the family lawyer, who gave
them the sad news that both their parents had been killed
in an automobile accident.
After the wills were probated, John and Bill found
themselves the heirs to two trust funds of approximately
$300,000 each. It was not an outright legacy - not until
they were 30 years old. Meanwhile, each son had an income
from stocks and bonds and other properties amounting to
around $15,000 a year.
Now I am telling you this true story because it answers so
perfectly the question that I am posing today - "At What
Age Can You Safely Leave a Son a Urge Inheritance?”
You can probably guess what happened iii the case of
John and Bill. Yes, you’re right. John, with the help ol his
trust fund, continued in medical school, graduated, became
an intern, and later an outstanding surgeon.
And Bill? Well, I’m sorry to say Bill ran true to fonn. He
dropped out of school right after his parents’ accident,
bought a high-powered sports car and went on an extended
trip to Europe. The $15,000 a year was just enough to give
Bill his food and lodging and pay his expenses from resort
to resort, if he was careful not to overspend. When John
asked Bill on one occasion whether he planned to get a job
to supplement his income. Bill said, “Are you kidding? I’ve
got only eight more years to go before 1 get my 300,000
bucks. Why should I work?"
I guess there really isn’t any answer to the question, “At
What Age Can You Safely Leave a Son a Large Inheri
tance.” I have talked to trust officers and they tell me, “It
depends upon the young man himself - his characteristics,
his ambitions, his goal in life.”
I wish I had an answer, but each case is different. An
income helped to complete John’s career, but it destroyed
Bill’s ambition. How well do you know your own son? You
must decide.

Drawing up your Christmas list? Make short work of your holiday shopping by remembering the picnickers, the
campers, the boaters, the fishermen, the travelers, the sunworshippers, and the sports fans on your list with a
smart-looking Thermos brand picnic kit. It’s a distinctive yet practical gift everyone will welcome and no one will
want to return.A wonderfully handy way to carry food and beverages from home, this trim brown vinyl picnic kit holds a pair of
Thermos brand vacuum bottles with lithographed steel
cases in a handsome wood-grain design. One of these quart-size vacuum bottles has a standard neck for beverages, the other has a wide mouth so it's suitable to keep
thick soups, steaming hot main dishes, chilled salads and desserts at the desired temperature. For further conven
ience, there’s a covered container to hold other picnic
goodies.

The worst possible thing that can happen to your brand new Christmas bicycle is to have it stolen. But that's ex
actly what may happen if you're not careful.The Bicycle Institute of America, based on vast numbers
of newspaper articles from around the country, and on information from local police authorities, has noted an alarming growth in bicycle theft. In fact, in some parts of
the nation it is the number one crime statistic.
Your Christmas bicycle, whether it's the popular hi-
riser for a young son or daughter, or a sophisticated 10-speed, derailleur-equip
ped lightweight for Mom or
Dad or even the best girl friend, is in danger.Unfortunately there is no
such thing as a burglar- proof bike, but the Bicycle Institute does offer the fol
lowing precautions to protect your new Christmas
two-wheeler or your old- reliable bicycle:• Lock your bike to a sta
tionary object.• Use a heavy-duty case- hardened chain and lock,
having a shackle of not less than 3/8 inch in diameter.
• Lock your bike in a conspicuous place. Most schools and campuses have
bicycle racks which will frustrate thieves who are
apt to be noticed by pedestrians or police.
• •When a bike is equipped with quick - release hubs,
simply remove the front wheel and lake it with you.Who wants a one-wheel bike'’
• Never leave your bicycle out over night. Always se
cure it indoors.• Always run the chain

through both wheels and the
frame before locking.• Record the serial number
of tlie bike. It is found in three places on the head lube under the manufactur
er's name or insignia; on the underside of the pedal crank housing, on the left rear loe-
plate near the axle.• Bikes should be registered by serial number, make,

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1974 - I IB
''Self-Recording" Of Behavior Patterns
[Produces Changes, Says Psychologist
hcchnique calledI \" «Ifrecording” is currently
' 'h ^ in g students in the
Jipartment of Psychology at the University of North
Carolina at Greensboro stop
smoking, lose weight, exercise
hiore and study longer.According to Dr. Rosemery
Nelson, an assistant professor
of psychology, the technique
differs from self-discipline.
"In self-recording the person does not have to think about his
behavior," she explained. "The
process of putting on paper or
pushing a button to record an
act results in a change in
behavior. It’s not an act of will."
iJStudents in one of Dr.
Nelson’s psychology classes
demonstrated the technique with an experiment designed to
reduce face touching. Each
student recorded every time he
or she touched his face. The
I Insult was a decrease in the
I amount of face touching.,A psychology graduate
I student wanted to increase the
time he spent playing with his
children. Using the self-
recording technique, aided by a
golf scorer on his wrist, he in- I creased their hours together.
Self-recording is a tool of
I behavior assessment, which is I itself part of the field of
bthavior modification. Dr. I^son, who joined the UNC-G
I faculty in 1971, teaches one of
I oifly a few university courses in
Itbe country on behavior
I assessment, and has written
Inumerous articles on the Isutiject.
."The emphasis in the field of
Ibdhavior modification for the
Ip^st 12 to 15 years has been on |therapy,” said Dr. Nelson.
“But it is necessary to evaluate
Ibfhavior before it can be
|changed. That is what
aiteessment does. It’s the other
alf of the picture.”^r. Nelson and two colleagues
at UNC-G, Dr. Marilyn T.
~rickson and Dr. Scott Lbwrence, designed the
^rriculum in applied
ychology in incllude the in-
^qvative course in behavior
sessment.
."We were all in the same
rientation in psychology in raduate school,” explained Dr.
Velson. "I received my Ph. D.
from the State University of
ew York at Stony Brook,
; behavioral assessment is
aught, and I guess we saw the
importance of assessment
ahead of other schools.”The University of Hawaii also
has a course in assessment, and
Dr. Nelson has co-authored with
Dr. I. M. Evans, who is a
professor there, an article entitled " A Curriculum for the
Teaching of Behavior
Assessment," in "American
Psychologist," a professional journal.
According to Dr. Nels(^n,
interest in assessment has
grown rapidly within the past
year. She has spoken at
numerous universities interested in planning courses in
behavior assessment, and is
presently at work on a book on
the subject with Dr. David Lipinski, a graduate of UNC-G’s
Department of Psychology, and
director of Kendall Center in
Greensboro.
"The idea of self-recording came out as a technique in
assessment,” said Dr. Nelson.
“The person who wants to
modify his behavior must evaluate it. Oftten this is done
by an outsider~a therapist.
"But it is impractical in many
types of behavior for an out
sider to be present. The
behavior may be carried out
only when the individual is alone, or in a family situation,
such as marital arguments.”
The behavior to be changed
may be anything from avoiding
thoughts about money to losing weight, said Dr. Nelson.
“When the indivisual starts
counting, the behavior changes.
We call the change ‘reactive
behavior,’ ’’ she explained.
“Invariably if the behavior is
considered good, it increases; if
bad, it decreases.”These reactions have been
demonstrated at Kendall Center
in Greensboro, a center for
retarded or handicapped
children and adults. The adults
at the center were told face touching was undesirable, but
that talking to one another was
not. The result of self-recording
was that face touching
decreased and talking in
creased, reported Dr. Nelson.
The key to the success of self- recording, noted Dr. Nelson, is
self-motivation. In one ex
periment a group of smokers
who did not wish to stop
smoking were asked to selfrecord and then were compared
with a group who did wish to
give up smoking. The

^Some wildlife and agriculture perts have expressed concern
at North Carolina may face a
ptentially serious threat from
^'critter known as the San Juan
abbit. Sounds like a "hare”
lising plot at the Saturday atinee, doesn't it?
Well, it’s no grade B movie,
■ it’s no joke. Chances are
ll’ve never even heard of the
called San Juan rabbit. It's
illy the European rabbit, and
It was released on San Juan Island in the State of
Vashington years ago. They
ave thrived and some have
trapped and shipped to
parts of the country.
Some of these rabbits are own to be in captivity in.
|iorth Carolina, although no
ermit for their importation has
ver been approved. The North
Carolina Wildlife Resources
tommission has announced
at it will do everything to courage people from im-
rting and releasing these
nimals.
I “A permit for the importation
any wild animal must be cured from the Wildlife
bmmission prior to bringing
! animal into the state,” said
Wildlife Commission
nan. "Any San Juan ^bbits now in the state got here
|legally because we would
ever approve their im-
rtation.”
I Why all the uproar? What's I harmful about a rabbit?
IA little background may be
elpful. The European-or San
lian-rabbit is larger than a
bttontail and eats much more. Inlike native rabbits, they are
|go great burrowers. Their
rrows may go as deep as nine
t and a single warren (family
veiling) may cover a quarter an acre. They undermine
iiiidings, consume green
getation to ground level and
len eat the bark off of trees.
|Probably no vertebrate pest the world-except the com-
■on rat-has been better
jiblicized than the European
abbit. They are a major
ioblem in Australia and New
laland where they were ac- Identally released and have
lused many millions of dollars
I damages to crops and wildlife
Jbitat.iGovernment extermination
lograms have been very costly
nd futile. Rabbits have
kmaged grazing lands so
Ivereiy that sheep starved.
■in Great Britain, these |bbils are considered major
sis whicii causes niilliims of
dollars in damages annually to
grasslands, cereal crops, truck
crops and orchards.
The European rabbit is not a
good target for hunters because he quickly runs into his burrow
and cannot be chased by
ijeagies. Therefore hunting has
no real control over the
population. These rabbits can
also survive wide ranges of climate as evidenced by the fact
that they are now found from
the tip of South America (Tierra
del Fuego) to Scotland and from
near the equator in central
Africa to Australia.A few states have already
adopted laws which prohibit the
ownership of any San Juan
rabbits, and in North Carolina it is illegal to have them shipped
into the state without a permit.
Since the State of Washington so
far has not adopted laws against
the export of these rabbits from
San Juan Island, it has been relatively easy for people in
other states to order them
(perhaps even without knowing
it is illegal).
"We would like to warn all
North Carolinians against these
very dangerous animals in hopes that they will neither
import nor raise them,” said
Bob Hazel, assistant executive
director of the N. C. Wildlife
Resources Commission. "If you
have them and want to get rid of
them, for goodness sakes don't
turn them loose. Let us know and we'll help. Also anyone who
knows of the existance of any
San Juan rabbits in the state is
urged to contact us immediately. We'll help dispose of
them. Our main interest is not
court cases, but helping people
solve this problem."

group's level increased and

self-recording is that it be
convenient for the person to record his behavior, added Dr.

CWA To Help
Play Santa
Don Chamberlain, President
of Local 3060, Communications
Workers of America, 454
Monmouth Street, Winston-
Salem, announced a program to help families during the
Christmas season that had no
prospect of a happy Christmas.
Chamberlain stated that the
Local membership had
authorized the expenditure of
$900.00 in funding a project known as “Operation Hap
piness” that is designed to bring
Santa Claus in the form of
clothing, food and toys to
children that would not receive
anything because of their
parents’ critical financial condition. Chamberlain said
that although the Union had
annually sponsored projects of
similar nature, he felt that this
one puts the need where it is greatest.
Howard Mabe, Director of
Public Relations, and director
of the project, explained that
the project is designed to cover
a six county area which in
cludes Davie, Davidson, For
syth, Stokes, Surry and Yadkin.
Two families have been selected from each County with
the aid of the department of
Social Services from the
respective Counties. Mabe said
that some of the families had
been contacted and the rest would be contacted shortly. He
said someone from the Local
visits the families’ home to
assist in selecting what the
family needs'. When the gift selection is made the Local then
picks up the tab and the
presents are delivered as close
to Christmas Eve as possible in
order to kindle the Christmas spirit. Mabe said that although
this was the second year the
Local had sponsored this
project, we just recently named
it Operation Happiness. Seeing
those little faces explode in
iiappiness leaves no doubt that it is named properly.
VA News
Does the Veterans Administration provide care for
veterans who are unable to
make it on their own because of
age or general disability?
Yes, the agency maintains
IK domlciliaries for this
purpose. Any VA office will
assist in filing application
for this benefit.
Is it true, as I hear, that the
Veterans Adm inistration touches the lives of nearly half
tlie U.S. population?
Some 47.1 per cent of the
population are potentially
eligible for the agency’s
benefits and services either
directly as veterans or
indirectly as members of
veterans’ families.
What are some of the advantages of a Veterans
Administration GI home loan?
The agency guarantees 60
percent up to a maximum of
$12,SOU of such loans, no
down payment is required
usually, VA appraises the
house to determine its
reasonable value and there
usually is a long repayment
period resulting in lower
nionthi.v payments.

pocket counter are tools that many people have found suc
cessful. Others merely tape an
index card to their notebook or
wallet and mark down each
lime the behavior occurs.She noted, however, that
when the desired result is to
decrease the intake of calories
it is important that the person
counting record the calories
before they eat."Otherwise, they are likely to
neglect to record them,” said
Dr. Nelson.
Although the technique seems
consistently successful. Dr.Nelson commented that there is
no means of estimating the
permanence of the changed
behavior."It seems logical that an old
habit would have to be recorded
longer than a newer one,” she
said. “Whether the behavior
will return after a certain
length of time is difficult to say at this point. What will make it
longer lasting is an area we’ll
tap later.”
The ideal aspect about the
technique is that anyone can do It, noted Dr. Nelson. “Even
very young children or retarded
persons who can’t count can — . make marks or use a counter. _The Jericho-Hardison 4-H Club members built the float.

If you haven’t as yet decided
what to give Uncle Sam on his
200th birthday, why not make it
a tree, a flower, a plant, a shrub?
Just think, if all of his
relatives chipped in by planting
a living gift on the occasion of
his Bicentennial, what a pleasant beginning it would be
for his third century.
John W. Warner, Ad
ministrator of the American
Revolution Bicentennial Administration (ARBA), who has
said the success of the Bicen
tennial will be judged by the
number of participants, not
spectators, suggests this is one
way an individual or community can become involved in
the commemoration of the
nation’s 200th anniversary with lasting effect.
The ARBA is encouraging support for the “Green Survival
for the Third Century" program
of the American Association of
Nurserymen (AAN) and has
designated the project a
national Bicentennial program.Mr. Warner presented a
certificate of recognition and a
Bicentennial flag to Louis
Hillenmeyer, President of the
AAN, on December 3.
In addition to focusing attention on the project, official
recognition provides for the use
of the national Bicentennial
symbol In connection with the
program’s activities.
The program is designed to
encourage “individuals and
m w niKaiKM iKaacM CM caK itnw i
groups to plant trees, shrubs,
grass and other plants In a
nationwide effort to help purify the air, stabilize the soil, clarify
the water, beautify our
surroundings and abate noise.”
The Association is working with State departments of
agriculture in the promotion of
“Green Survival for the Third
Century,” and ten States are
currently using or considering
the program.For 20 years the association
has conducted an Annual
Landscape Award Program and
will give a special series of awards to those communities
which have shown outstanding
interest and success on com
munity beautification during
the nation’s Bicentennial.
Mr. Warner noted that many of the more than 2,000 com
munities around the country
which have received national
Bicentennial recognition to date, have included such
beautification programs in their
Bicentennial planning and expressed hope that many
others will join.

Christmas Plants Now Come In A Wide Variety Of Siiapes, Colors And Sizes
By HENHY J. .SMITH
LnndHcapc Horticulturint
N. C. State University
That prize plant of the
Christmas season now
comes in a variety of siz
es, shapes, forms, textur
es, leaf shape, and berry
color. In the South, ever
green hollies are among
the best— and most impor
tant— landscape materials
available.
The holly family ranges
from low-growing ground-
cover sizes to large
trees. Various hollies can
be adapted to almost any
planting design require
ment. One of the flnest
landscape developments I
have seen is a home prop
erty landscaped entirely
in hollies. There is such
a variance and variety in

For water may shrink
felt and cause the dye to
run. So before launder
ing, test the effect of the
water in an obscure place
on the felt.
If no damage occurs,
spot-clean the decoration
— but only if the stain is
water soluble.
Drycleaning is the most
practical way to clean felt
decorations— except deco
rations glued with rub
ber cement. And some
trims may be damaged
during drycleaning, bo
consult the drycleaner if
you’re in doubt.
And don’t wait until

begin the cleaning. For it
will spread more holiday
cheer if it’s clean and
bright.
the kinds of holly, that a
non-botanist or non-hor
ticulturist does not rea
lize the entire planting is
done with various mem
bers of genius Ilex.
Low-growing Helleri, a
variety of Japanese holly,
is useful as a ground cov
er or in low masses. Other
Japanese varieties— such
as Hetzi, Stokes, Repan-
dens, Compacta, and Ro-
tundifolia, a r e wise
choices for foundation
plantings, low hedges, and
mass planting effects.
Dwarf Yaupon holly
and “Rotunda,” a dwarf
form of Chinese holly,
are excellent low ever
green plants. Chinese hol
lies Comuta and Burfor-
di are tall-growing plants
with glossy green foliage
and red berries.
Dwarf Burfordi is a
good medium sized shrub
that will require less
pruning than taller forms.
"Carissa” is a new low-
growing Chinese holly of
medium texture and glos
sy foliage. It shows great
promise as a landscape
accent specimen.
Native or wild hollies,
Casaine, Yaupon, Myrti-
folia and Opaca, are
prime plants for screen
ing. They’re also effective
in accent groupings, or as
singular emphasis plants.
These are all good berry
producers.
Our traditional Ameri
can holly (Ilex opaca),
the much-prized greenery
for Christmas decorations,
now is available in im
proved varieties, as How
ard, Savannah, Croonem-
burg, and East Palatka.
Some hybrid hollies such
as "Nellie R. Stevens,”
"Foster,” and “Brilliant”
are useful as background
screening plants or accent
specimens.
In the vast range of
hollies, other interesting
forms are the English
holly group, Pernyi holly
and Aquipemyi holly.
All hollies are of rela
tively low maintenance if
properly planted in the
landscape design. They
all are adapted to North
Carolina.

Public Notices
Oh December 7,1974 the local
Homemakers Oub brought the
years activities to a close, with a Christmas Party-Bazaar, at
the Club Building in Cana, N.C.
Mrs. Herman Brewer was
chairman of the event, and Mrs. Lola Etchison was chosen
honorary chairman.
Each member brought items
to be sold, and they were varied
and interesting. Despite the inclement weather, our sales were good, and we were pleased
with the results.
The table of balced items, under the direction of Mrs. Herman Brewer, was a joy to
behold. It was filled with
delicious calces, pies, mints,
fudge, jams, jellies and
preserves, which would add a note of interest to any meal or festive occasion.
, One of the out-standing items
in the craft display, was the toy
monkeys, made by Mrs.
Qayton Groce, fashioned from
men’s work socks. They were stuffed with nylon, and their jackets were made from
"scraps”. Very clever, and
washable!. Mrs. Groce’s
daughter, Mrs. Charles An-
iderson, sent one of the much
liked of. Red Velvet Cakes. It
[ed luscious!.Among the attractive
leted articles brought by
Lester Eaton, were some
irming tree decorations, and
ely baby bootees.Irs. Era Latham contributed of her beautiful hand-
fted afghans, and other
IS.
Irs. Edwin Boger brought ne of her delicious mints,
ich sold immediately after
Bazaar opened. She also
mght one of her rare fruit
birs. Lloyd Brown brought a delicious loaf of Cranberry
ead. Mrs. Cecil Leagans, a
ly of many talents, brought
tractive crafts, and delicious
'anberry Pound Cake, and anana Nut Cake.Mrs. Naomi Purches sent an
ttractive apron, and in this
atagory, there was several
sting contributions. Mrs.
agans &d an unusual apron
Hth “button-on” felt pocket Itrim. These were decorated /with motifs for Christmas,
Valentine, Easter and
Thanksgiving. There was also
the French Chef’s apoms, like
(hose worn by James Beard.
These are practical, and suitable for both men and
women. There were others
worthy of mention.
Mrs. Minnie Pope brought one
of her marvelous coconut cakes,
and crocheted pillows.Mrs. Wade Groce, chairman of handicrafts, brought artistic
dried flower arrangements, in
both the natural and tented
material. One arrangement,
which drew interesting comments, was made of Honesty, or
Money plant or, as the seed
catalogs list it-Lunaria. Hie seed p ^ , when the outer cover
is removed, have a lovely,
silvery sheen and lend them
selves well for arrangements,
wreaths, and are nice mixed
with other dried materials. They combine well with the
brown, glycerinized magnolia leaves. Try growing some in
your own garden. You will be
pleased with the results. It is a
hardy biennial, and not difficult tp grow.
Mrs. Roadman Pope, well
known to many for her
beautifully decorated and
delicious cakes, brought a
Coconut and Devils Food Cake. Lucky person who chose these!
' Mrs. Clyde Jordan brought a
beautiful ceramic bowl, which
she had decorated. Also some
lovely Christmas tree decorations, made from egg cartons, pipe cleaners and
“glitter”.
Available was canned
vegetables, Butternut Squash,
which is delicious baked, and
may be used same as pumpkin in pies and cakes.
We wish to express our
gratitude to those who helped make our Bazaar a success. First, for the clever publicity in
Enterprise-Record, and WDSL
and WSJS Radio Stations for
their Bulletin Board An
nouncements.
Funds for the Wassail, this year, was given by Mrs. J. M.
Hartman of Winston-Salem. It
was made by a recipe used in
colonial days in the Sturbridge
Village area, and it is similar to the recipe used at Colonial
Williamsburg when they
celebrate the "Burning of the
Yule Log”. There it was ser-
#ved, steaming hot, from a large wooden barrel, to which roasted apples had been added.
Our thanks to hose, not members of our club, who brought or sent gifts. Mrs. Alvin Dyson brou^t swags of Love Apple, grown in her
garden. lU brilliant fruit adds a
nateoTintemsl where ever you choose to use it. She also brought pie, Jams and apple butter.Mr. and Mrs. John Boyce
Cain of Birmingham, Ala. sent a
collection of Ihe most attractive
hand towels. These had added (ouches of lace, “hamburg” and braid. Their daughter Jeannie,
sent a collection of tiny colorful
baskets, filled with books of
matches, decorated in gay ribbons. These were among the
first items sold!
This year we had our first
Wassail, Wassail
England)
(ancient
Wassail, wassail all over the town!Our bread it is white and our
ale it is brown;
Our bowl is made of the maple
tree.
So here my good fellow. I’ll drink to thee.
The wass’ling bowl with a
toast within,
come, fill it up now unto the
brim.
Come, fill it up that we may all see.
With the wassailing bowl, I’ll
drink to thee.
Come butler bring us a bowl
of your t>e8t,
And we hope your soul in
heaven siiall rest.
But if you bring us a bowl too
small.
Then down shall go butler and

To Mrs. Fred Rich of Greenst>oro, we are indebted for
attractive patchwork aprons.
And, to Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hines,
a delicious pumpkin cake.
There were many things to
numerous to mention. There
were Yule Logs, effective when
used at your doorway, and later
placed on the hearth on
Christmas eve, to be used on the flre next morning, according to
legend.There was the ever beautiful
note paper and cards, made
from the original block-prints
by Gwen Frostic, who in her inimitable fashion catches the
beauty of nature in flowers,
trees, grasses, and little
creatures.
The beautiful pine Christmas

Fred Rich, using hand crafted ornaments. She also served in
many capacities. Mrs. Ivey
Nell Boger and Mrs. Era

registered the guests.
'Mrs. Minnie Pope and Mrs.
Ruby Leagans served as
cashiers. Other members of the
club greeted customers, and helped with sales. Mrs. Annie
'Hiomas graciously presided at
the Wassail "Bowl”.
We are deeply indebted to Mr.
Fred Rich and Mr. Albert
Hutchins for the procurement of
our Christmas tree, including
the two small cedars placed at
the entrance of the building. They lent a hand in so many
ways to help. Young Lloyd
Brown offer^ his services to

Re-doing Old Trunk
Calls for New Knot
Dear Mr. Goodman:For years now I have tried to quit smoking, but just can’t.
I seem to be dependent on cigarettes. I almost feel as though I’m addicted. Is it really possible for a heavy, long time smoker to quit entirely?Mrs. J. M.
Dear Mrs. J. M.:Each year I see hundreds of patients with exactly the same problem that you describe.Nearly everyone repeats the myth that they’ve t r i^ to stop smoking, but can’t. If you really try . . . really, you can do almost anything you want. Certainly you can stop smok-
Granted, self-restraint is called for, but then what is self-restraint other than giv
ing up one thing in favor of another.If you want the benefits of iieing a non-smoker, then you have to give up smoking cig
arettes. It’s as simple as that. It’s all a matter of what you want more.
Patients I have seen in my office and those I have treated via Therapy Tapes are utterly amazed at now easy giving up smoking is.The secret is honestly wanting to quit. Some people, it’s true, need professional guid
ance, but even these people can make remarkable progress if they just exercise self-re
straint.I’ve sent you a brochure telling about methods I've used in successfully treating other smokers. Readers of this column may obtain the brochure
by writing me at 1909 East Cornell, Peoria, III. 61614.

The renovation of an
old trunk became a two-
generation project for a
Columbus County family.
When Mrs. Thurman
Chauncey set out to re-do
an old trunk, she discov
ered a hole in the top
where a knot had fallen
through.
Her husband, who
works at a local plywood
firm volunteered to bring
home some knots from
reject plywood.
Her father, who is
retired, said he would do
the repair work.
After a little work, the
knot was held securely in
place by a metal circle
from a discarded can.
After the repair wOrk, the
homemaker stained, fin
ished and lined the trunk.It’s hard to tell who
is most proud of the
beautiful trunk — the
owner or those who
helped to make it a
beautiful finished pro
duct, says Mrs. Elaine
Blake, extension home
economist.

In one Durham County

the children teaching the
parents.
The children, en
rolled in Expanded Nutri

Group meetings, were
taught the importance of
eating a good breaidast.
Now they get up early
every morning, calling
for their mother to fix
their meal for them.
“ After many years of

Wh(;n we think of Christmas time, all the joys of the season come to mind: the sharing of gifts, excitement of children, and the iieauty of a brightly-ornamented tree.Many families, however, have somewhat gi-immer Christmas memories— brought on by just one unsafe act which caused a needless, tragic accident.To help you have a safe Christmas season, Umier- writers’ Laboratories — a not-for-proiit organization testing for pi safety — olTers the following tips.
lie ruri'ful villi niairbn and
•niukrt.
★ DISCONNECT LIGHT STRINGS WHEN WORKING WITH
THEM. Additionally, never try to stretch the strings or exten
sion wiring. Only use extensions or string lights outside if the
label so specifies.
if NEVER OVERLOAD CIRCUITS. By placing more current
on a wire than it can handle, you run the risk of overheating
and possibly causing a fire. Look for the capability ot the wiring.
★ WATCH PLACEMENT OF ELECTRICAL FIXTURES.
Keep them out of children’s reach, and never place them close
to flammable material.
★ INSPECT ALL WIRING. Watch for insulation deterioration,
especially if you’ve stored the »iiing for a long period. Buy
only UL-labeled string lights and cords.
★ CHECK ALL LIGHTS CAREFULLY. Make certain bulbs
are not loose in their sockets. Use rubber light socket gaskets,
and replace if needed. Use lights only on UL-listed artificial
trees to minimize chances of fire.
By following these safely tips, you can assure your family
a truly merry Christmas.
Many consumer questions
have arisen about laundering
infant wear since the advent
of fire retardant sleepers and
cold water washing lo conserve
energy. Here are some of them;
Q. Can diapers be washed
effectively (n cold walei?
A. Absolutely not. Those an
noying “greaseballs” you find
on them sometimes are the re
sult of not having washed the
diapers in hot enough water.
Q. Whal is the best meOiod
for laundering the new flame retardant children's sleepwear?
A. In warm water. To the
recommended amount of deter
gent add one cup of a bleach
substitute like Borateem Pius.
Chlorine bleach should not be
used. It drastically reduces the
life of the protective flame re
tardant finish.
Q. How can I get rid of food
stains from children’s clothing?
A. Soak them overnight be
fore washing, adding Vi cup of
the bleach substitute to the wa
ter. Just prior lo washing, rub
some of the product into
tougher stain, then launder.

Old Fashioned Steamed Pudding...
A Joy During Holiday Season
_________SgsM fcflilS
One traditional holiday dessert that’s a “must" in many homes during the Yuletide season is a molded stenmed pudding .,. festive m appearunce, moist, rich and delicious.One of the best, to our way of thinking, is a chocolate steamed pudding, made with semi-aweet chocolate chips. It steams in only 2'A hours. It's lighter, more delicate than most, and absolutely sensational when served warm with drifts of w hipp^ cream and cherry sauce.
Even if you’ve never tried to make u steamed pudding before, you’ll be surprised at how easily this one goes together. I Here’s the recipe:
('.liiH'iiliili' Chip .SU'iiiiicil I'uililiiiii

Luther solved the problem by lighting candles and placing them on the boughs of an evergreen.

Physical Fitness
It is not recommended that
one wait until the golden years
of life to begin a physical-fitness
program, but there are enough senior citizens around who have
made remarkable returns to
good health to indicate that time
spent in body conditioning is a
good investment.Hulda Crooks, a 75-year-old
grandmother who has climbed
14,496-foot Mt. Whitney ten
times in the past ten years, is
one of these people. When she
realized that a heavy work and study program had undermined
her health, she started jogging
in her backyard. Increasing the
distance gradually, in a year
she could jog one mile without
stopping. At present she adds
one or two miles of walking each day to her early morning
jogging. But the high point of
her physical activity is an
annual pack trip through the
High Sierras to the top of Mt.
Whitney.
Another inspiring example of the benefits of exercise is
Professor Edwin G. Paget of
Raleigh, North Carolina, who
has climbed Pike’s Peak 546
times since 1919.
When Professor Paget was
still in his youthful years, his doctor told him he might not
have long to live. The young
Paget determined to escape an
early grave. He read health
books and decided to start walking.
By gradually increasing his
stamina, he began to undertake
more ambitious hiking. He read
of the scenic beauties of Pike’s
Peak and in 1919 made his first
ascent. In celebration of his 75th birthday, the spry
professor set his goal to run
alongside the cog railway track
to the peak five times!
U. Col. Kenneth H. Cooper,
M.D., whose “aerobic” conditioning program has become
well-known, warns that
precautions should be taken by
those who decide to change
their sedentary habits, and that a thorough medical
examination is a must.
Whether the choice of exercise
is walking, jogging, bicycling,
or swimming, the time and
intensity of the activity should be increased gradually.
Dr. Cooper recommends that
people over 50 start with a
walking program and work up
gradually to jogging, running,
or the more strenuous sports.
Most people are advised to
choose walking, swimming, or
stationary cycling.Besides the obvious
physiological value of regular
outdoor exercise, there is great
psychological benefit in
relieving depression, anxiety,
tension, nervousness, and in
somnia. What better way to invest a half hour every day
than in a regular program of
physical fitness?

Commission Considers
New Deer Regulations
Give more to
Christmas Seals
Deer restoration, trout
management and legislative
proposals headed the list of topics discussed by the N. C.
Wildlife Resources Commission
in a regular meeting in Raleigh
Wednesday, December II.
The nine-member board of
Commissioners heard a report
from the Division of Game on
the feasibility of establishing
deer restoration areas in some parts of the state where deer
populations are currently low.
Overall, North Carolina’s deer
population is at an all-time high,
but there are still parts of the
state where deer are scarce.
Areas have been studied by
biologists as possible choices
for a restocking program, and a
dozen of these will receive further study.
“In order for an area to be
suitable for a deer restocking
program, a lot of conditions
must be met,” said Dick
Hamilton, chief of the Division
of Game for the N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission. “First,
there must already be suitable
habitat for the deer, and the
area must be large enough to
support a substantial herd.
Also, ideally, there should be no existing population of deer in
the area since an existing
population - no matter how
small ~ may already be as large
as the food and habitat can
support. There must also be strong local support for the
restoration project since the
area must be closed for several
years after stocking in order to
give the herd time to build.
Unless local support exists, the
newly stocked deer might not be able to survive poaching or
other obstacles. There are
other considerations also, but
these are the main ones.”
The Wildlife Commission
authorized the staff to proceed with plans to restock three top
priority areas beginning the
first of the year.
The Wildlife Commission also
approved a list of designated
public mountain trout waters,
Christmas Tree Fire Hazard Reduced
The beautiful green Christ
mas Tree covered with spar
kling lights and ornaments can
quickly become a dry, brittle
fire hazard in your home. The
w arm lh of your living room
will cause the tree to dry out.
the branches to sag, and the
needles to fall. Then a bad con
nection or frayed wire in the
decoration lights, a spark from
the fireplace or from some
other fire source and your tree
goes from an object of beauty
and joy to one of horror and
destruction.
In order to slow the drying
process of cut trees a nation
ally know n florist, H arold
Cook, developed the popular
Green Garde m icronized iron
homemade preservative. M ix it
correctly and adm inister it
properly and the Are hazard
w ill be dim inished and the
life and beauty of your Christ
mas Tree w ill be extended.
Fire chiefs across the nation
are urging homeowners with
live cut trees to follow these
directions: Check all electrical
equipm ent, use only flame
proof decorations and use
Cook's simple homemade pre
servative form ula.
As soon as the live cut tree
is brought home about 1 to 2
inches should be cut from the
base of the trunk to eliminate
any clotted resins. Tliis will
allow the tree to "d rin k " the
preservative through the tree
trunk. The form ula should be
Immediately prepared and the
tree placed in a tree stand de
signiHl to hold the liquid pre
servative. The sooner this is
done the belter the results
w ill be.
Here is how to prepare the
simple Green Garde formula:
First, place four tablespoons
of the mlcronutrient Green
Garde m icronized iron (1
ounce) into a gallon con
lainer.
Second, add two cups of !it:hl
com syrup, such as Karo.
Third, add four teaspoons of
liquid chlorinated household
bleach.
Last, add a gallon of hot
water. Mix ingredients well
and then pour or ladle into
the tree stand bowl.
The tree stand bowl sliould
be checked daily to insure
Ihal at least one inch of pre
servative covers Ihe bolttini of
the tree trunk. If it does not
add m ore of the form ula. The
Green Garde m icronized iron
preservative can be stored, in
a location Inaccessible I o
children, for eight to ten
weeks. It should, h iwi'ver. be
well stirred each time it is
added tcj ihe bowl The pre
servative only needs to be hot
the first tim e the tree is placed
in the preservative.
A fresh green tree will not
only be beautiful and produce
that pleasant pine "just cut"
aroma but will help you to
have u safe and enjoyable
holidiiy season.

and further approved stocking
plans. The Commission con
sidered a request from Com
missioner Wallace Case of
Hendersonville to have the
designation of the Davidson
River changed from “native” to
“general” trout regulations, but decided to keep the present
designation until further studies
could be made and the subject
could again be presented at
public hearings next year.
Cookies!
Ten days til’ Christmas can be counted off by tiny tots at
suppertime with a special cookie
each day, decorated with
numbers from I to lo. Eat the
cookie numbered 10 first, and so on, until the great day dawns.
Or, apply the same idea to the
“Seven Days of Christmas.”
For uniform drop cookies, press dough into measuring
spoons. Use a small, rubber
scraper to drop them on cookie
sheets.
Holiday Season
Is Filled With
Traditions
The traditions surrounding Christmas are as colorful as
each recurring Yuletide season.
Decorating churches and homes
with tree branches began in ancient times with Ihe Romans
who exchanged boughs as
symbols of good luck on the first
day of January. For the
Scandinavians, a tree was not
just a sign of good fortune, but a deity. When they converted to
Christianity, they gave their old
god new meaning as a symbol of
the hope and beauty that is Christmas.
It was in Great Britain that
children first began to hang
stockings by the fireplace,
hoping that Father Christmas
would fill them with small presents. This tradition sur
vives to this day in the U. S.
where old and young alike join
in the ritual of displaying their stockings on the eve of the
holiday.
Fruits, nuts and candy are the
traditional staples which fill the
loes, upward to the ankles. But
the smaller gifts that make the stocking bulge in festive
splendor vary from year lo
year.
Another tradition, the sending
of Christmas cards. The first
specially designed card was made in London in 1843. It was
not until two decades later that
the custom arrived in this
country, thus making it one of
the more “modern” practices to
join the lore and legend that
surfaces with Christmas ‘74.

Ever wonder, as you hang
festive lights on the branches of
that prize pine or spruce, who
trimmed the first Christmas
tree? Or when folks first
"discovered” Santa Claus? Or
who sang the first Christmas carol?
Some Christmas customs are
surprisingly recent, while
others date back beyond the
earliest Christians. But the
Yuletide we know — complete with gifts under a gaily lighted
tree, friends calling to admire
the sparkling decorations,
family reunions — has existed
for only the past 200 years.
To our ancestors of several
centuries ago, Christmas was a time of solemn rejoicing and
deep religious dedication, with
little of the modern gaiety. The
New England Puritans actually
forbade joyous Yuletide
demonstrations!New Englanders and other
Americans eventually followed
the lead of New York’s Dutch
settlers and succumbed to the
charm of “San Nicolaas” —
better known as Saint Nick or
Santa Claus. But the jolly gent had a flourishing career long
before he reached our shores.
More than 1600 years ago
there was a St. Nicholas — a
Turkish bishop whose countless
works of charity made him a
legend in his lifetime. Martyred
in 342 A. D., he became the patron saint of children and of
three nations; Greece, Holland
and Belgium.
As for the Christmas tree, it’s
still the center of attraction in
many homes — a place of honor
rooted in history. Thousands of
years before the first Christmas, the evergreen was revered
as a symbol of long life and
immortality. German tribes
brought fir trees into Iheir
homes to please the god-like
spirits they thought inhabited
the trees. When these pagans converted to Christianity, they
Salem Art Work

The exhibit, coordinated by Lee Dalton, senior of Kinston,

Edwin Shewmake, William
Mangum, and Mary Kampen, and will be a cross-section of
various media.Wood and plaster sculpture,
etchings, woodcuts, oil and
acrylic paintings, and water-
coiors will be included. There
will also be some cardboard construction illustrating
various principles of design (3

certain illusions, patterns,

the Introductory Design course.The public is invited to visit

Next time you hear "Deck th hall with boughs of holly" —
song that dates back to kh
Middle Ages — remember tl

word “carol” means “to danci in a ring,” and the man

“Deck the halls with boughs of holly; ‘tis the season to be jolly.” Christmas is for
joy and laughter; Christmas glows with
merriment!
Throughout Davie County, families are
putting the finishing touches on plans for holiday get-to-gethers. There are
mysterious packages and kitchens are
fragrant with the scents of special treats.
Homes are bright with gala decorations.
Churches and clubs are holding their annual Christmas programs.
"Silent Night, Ho y Night, all is calm, all
is bright.” Christmas is for prayer and
peace; Christmas gleams with the light of
the Star that shone so brightly nearly two thousand years ago. And throughout this
comm'inity, the deep spiritual significance
of the holy season spreads comfort and
cheer. In churches, the hours of worship
• reflect the coming joy as, during the weeks
before Christmas, the story of Christ’s coming is the subject of study, sermon,
song and prayer.
Some of the programs of clubs and
churches reported to this newspaper are
as follows:

Davie County Unemployment
Rate Lower Than State Average
Unemployment in North Carolina
reached a 10-year high according to figures compiled during the last week in
November but Davie and surrounding
ties seem to be faring somewhat
better.
The November average statewide was
3.4 per cent but the unemployment rate
during the last week in November was 6.7
according to Ted Davis, public relations official for the N.C..Employment Security
Commission in Raleigh.
That 6.7 figure represents the number of
claims (117,325) filed by employes out of
work. It was the highest figure since July,
1964, when the figure was 6.4 per cent.
Davie County posted a 2.9 percentage for
November, a figure based on workers actually being paid unemptoymeni in
surance.' « ». i''
The unemployment rate is ,based on
those workers covered by insurance.
North Carolina has a labor force of 2.5
million of which 1,700,000 workers are
insured.
The Mocksville office of the Em
ployment Security Commission said that
applications for unemployment benefits
have picked up considerably in the last six
weeks.
The increase was not unusual, however,
since the sewing factories in the county usually close for at least a week around
Christmas with workers eligible for
benefits although last year was an ex
ception.'The Mocksville office is handling bet
ween two and three hundred regular ap
plicants and about that many more resulting from temporary layoffs from the
sewing industry.Other industries feeling the pinch of
Christmas layoffs in the county are the
construction and trucking industries but it
should be noted that it is the traditional
'.ime of year for such layoff =.
Rowan and Stanly were lowest iWTea counties on which figures were available
with 1.7 each. In Cabarrus it was 2.6 and
Davie and Iredell both had 2.9 per
centages.The Piedmont as a whole is in good
shape, according to Davis. Counties with
diversified industries have less unem-

When you left for the party on New

The Wonder
Of Jesus
"His name shall be called
Wonderful" - Isaiah 9:6When we speak of "the
wonder of Jesus” our minds
Immediately turn to the prophetic words of Isaiah; "His
name will be called Won
derful." Is there not something
wonderful in the fact that, after 1900 years, we should gather to contemplate his advent?The wonder of Jesus is seen in
the fact that what everybody
thought was the end of him turned out to be the real
beginning of him.But now look at this more
closely. Apply to Jesus some of
the tests by which we evaluate other men. Some men are remembered because they
leave imperishable books.
Jesus wrote no book.Other men are remembered because they have left im
perishable works of art. He left
none.Still other men are remem
bered because they have
amassed great wealth. Jesus
died a poor man. ,Still other men are remem
bered because they commanded
great armies, or were identified
virith some form of organized
effort: military, political, economic, social. Jesus left no organization whatever. All He
left were twelve disciples who,
at the time of his death,
deserted him. Yet this man who
died alone and who during his
life never traveled more than a
few score of miles from the place of his birth, today has
followers who are numbered in
the millions and are to be found
in every country.

No Christmas!
“Hear ye, hear ye! Christmas will not be celebrated. All who observe that abom
inable day will be severely punished!"An unlikely message for a town crier? Not In the time of Oliver Cromwell!Cromwell and his Puritan Party did Indeed consider Christmas an “abominable day," and on December 24, I6S3, they succeeded In getting the English Parlia
ment to pass a law making Christmas celebrations of any kind illegal.Imprisonment or exile was the penalty for disobedience.
A few days before Christmas, town criers went
through the streets warning against holiday celebrations.In England, the ban last
ed eight years — and even longer in the United States. The belief that Christmas merry-making Was sinful came to the New World with the Pilgrims.
New England states outlawed Christmas observances until the middle of the nineteenth century. In Boston, for Instance, Christmas was illegal until 18561
Kxpcricnccs with and comments on water witching or
divining continue to come our
way, the two most recent letters
from Bristol, Tennessee, and Bristol, Virginia, respectively.
The first, from J. H.
McGlothlin, of Route 6, Bristol,
Tennessee, extols the use of copper wire as a witching tool. In the following paragraphs he
describes its use:
"I have found several water
weiis, but I use two copper wires. You take two wires
about 18 inches long and bend
airoui 2 inches down. Place a
wire in each hand and close all
fingers tightly around the bend; (lien extend the thumbs forward on the wire.
"Walk slowly back and forth
over the ground where you want
to find water. When you cross a
source of water the wires will cross. When you are over the water the wire will come back
to a forward position. By the
way, you hold the wire out in
front of you with your elbows
pressed to your sides.
I have never missed finding water. I can’t tell you how deep
down, but it seems the closer
the water is the stronger the
wire will cross when you come
over the stream."1 have also seen people find
water with a peach tree limb
with a dime in the end of a
forked branch, but it didn’t
work for me. The copper wire
has not failed me yet.”Mr. 0. T. Powell, of Bristol,
Virginia, relates his experience
with "witching” in locating
water on his property in Bristol
in the mid-thirties;
“About 1935 I built outside the city limits of Bristol, Va. and since city water was not
available, I had to drill a well.
"A very good friend of mine,
heard about this and told me I
should let him test the ground to
determine if I could locate water without having to drill too
deep, and he explained his
method of water witching. I
told him I didn’t believe in this
stuff. Well, he insisted so much
and said it was free and why not
take a chance.
"The day of the test he showed up with a forked branch cut from a locust tree. My wife
and I decided one would walk on
each side of this friend and
walch him closely, for we had
been told by many non
believers that they would twist
the branch in their hands. The walk across the 200 foot started with my wife and I watching
closely all the way; finally
about way across the lot the upright end of the branch
started quivering and down it
went, breaking off in his hand. I
was sold on this so fast that I
insisted on putting a stick in the ground right there. He then started from the opposite side of
the iol and the stick went down
at the same spot.
“ When the well driller
arrived from Roanoke, Va. he asked if I wanted him to drill
near my basement so I could
place the pumps inside the
basement and I said, ‘See that slick in the ground, I want your bit to start right on that spot.’
He said, ‘You must have had a
water witch' and when I told him 1 had one he stated there was nothing to this.
"We drilled and struck a big
stream about 94 feet down and it
served us well for many years
and some of our friends that had stomach trouble and couldn’t
drink treated water would come
weekly and get jugs of drinking
water. We enjoyed this well,
but finally the city water became available and our pump
went out, so we tapped on.”
A reader has asked me to help
him locate a water witch in the
Brevard, North Carolina, area.
If there is such a person in or
near Brevard, I would be happy
to pass on the information. Please send all material to Rogers Whitener, Folk-Ways and Folk-Speech

PINE BEETLE
The Southern Pine Beetle continues to spread in
North Carolina, according to North Carolina State
University entomologists. The tree-destroying pest
had been identified in 81 of the 100 counties by mid - summer. Infested
areas now total 16 million acres.
BV HENRY J. SMITH

N.C. State University
Centuries before Christ,
people who worshiped nature
brought evergreens Into their
homes during festival time as proof and symbols of continuing
life. Ancient Romans decorated
evergreens with ornaments and
gifts at Saturnalia, a winter
festival to welcome the coming spring and revival of nature’s fruit-bearing season. The
evergreen tree became a part of
our Christian celebration early in the 16th Century.
People In Scandinavia once worshiped trees. Upon
becoming Christians, they
made evergreens part of
Christian festivals. One legend tells how the first Chrijtma.' tree was shown in a miracle to
an English missionary named
Winfrid ( later called
Boniface).
About 1,200 years ago, Winfrid traveled through northern Germany. One day, he found a
group of heathens beneath an
oaK tree. They were preparing
to make a human sacrifice to the god Thor. Winfrid stopped
the sacrifice and cut down the
“blood oak.” As the oak fell, a
young fir appeared. Winfrid told
the people that the fir was the
tree of life, representing Christ.The Romans exchanged green tree branches for good'
luck on the first day of January.
The English carried the custom
over to Christmas. An old
English rhyme says: “Holly,
and ivy, box and bay, put in the Church on Christmas Day.”
The Christmas tree probably
was introduced to America via
German settlers. To the Ger
mans, we attribute the first use of Christmas tree decorations.
They trimmed trees with stars,
angels, toys, golded nuts and
candles wrapped in bright
paper. Later they added tinsel and lighted candles. Lights on a
Christmas tree represent Christ
as the Light of the World.
Martin Luther, perhaps, was
the first to use lights on a Christmas tree. According to a
popular story. Luther, walking
thru a forest on his return from
Christmas eve services, was
attracted to the beauty of stars viewed thru snow-laden
branches of a fir tree. Upon
reaching home, he tied candles
to branches of his fir Christmas
tree to symbolize for his children, the glory and beauty of the stars above Bethlehem on
that Holy Night.
Mistletoe
Hanging mistletoe is a pagan custom which has survived
because of our Christmas
tradition. Druid priests cut
mistletoe with a golden sickle
and caught it in a white cloth
before it could touch the ground. It was then distributed to their followers to hang in their
homes. Its magical powers
were supposed to bring hap
piness, romance, and peace.
Druids, ancient priests of the Celts, regarded mistletoe as
sacred when it grew on the oak -
which seldom happens with the
European variety. It was then
supposed to have all healing
properties.Mistletoe had the reputation among early Christians of helping in cases of old age in
firmities and was called
“lignum Sanctae Crucis” (wood
of the Holy Cross). (Early
Europeans used mistletoe as a
ceremonial plant.)In northern European
mythology, Baldar, the Sun god.
who was held to be in
vulnerable, was killed with an
arrow made from this wood. In
ancient Scandinavia, enemies meeting by chance beneath a
tree bearing mistletoe were
obliged to disarm, embrace in
friendship and keep peace
together for the rest of the day.In the Saturnalls of the pagans, mistletoe played a
prominent part whence the
tradition of kissing has been
handed down to modern times.Mistletoe is a parasitic
shrubby plant which grows
between the forks of branches of
various trees. Birds eat the
white, shiny berries of mistletoe. The seed of the berries cling to their beaks, and
are scattered when birds
sharpen their bills against the
bark of trees.
Many Hollies
The most popular of all
holiday greens, holly embraces
many species. A South American form furnishes the
mate or Paraguay tea. Some 15
species are found in eastern and
southeastern United States. The native American holly (Ilex opaca) is traditionally valued
for its bright red berries and
evergreen leaves.
One tradition relates that at
the Crucifixion, the holly
produced sticky leaves after the
crown of thorns was placed on
Christ. Red berries are symbolic of His drops of blood.Holly is valued for its hard,
white, fine-grained wood, used
in cabinet work and wood
engraving. One legend has it
that George Washington’s
dentist filled Washington’s
cavities with pegs of the wood;
later carving his false teeth of holly wood. Evergreen leaves of
Dahoon (Ilex cassine), a native
of the Southern states, are used
for tea. Leaves of Yaupon holly
(I. vomltorla) have been used as an emetic since early days of the Indians. Brilliant red
berries of both these plants are
popular for Christmas
decorations.The true meaning of the word
holly has two theories. One, it
refers to holy; the other that the
word roots harken back to two old words of vague origin - which translates to mean to prick-arrow, refering to the
sticky leaves.
The Polnsettla
The Polnsettla is a later addition to our Christmas
decorations. It was first In
troduced to the United States in
1825 by Joel Robert Poinsett,
first U.S. ambassador to
Mexico, a native of Greenville, S.C. The plant is native to the area around the present-day city of Taxco, Mexico.
During the 17th Century,
Fransiscan priests settled near
Taxco. Because of the color and
holiday blooming time, they began to use polnsettlas in the
Fiesta of Santa Pesebre, a
nativity procession.
One old Mexican legend
relates that a poor little peasant girl visited a Nativity scene.
She was sorrowful upon seeing
the gifts of the Wise Men, as she
had nothing to give the Christ
Child. As she wept, her tears fell
to the ground and immediately
sprang-forth as Polnsettla

Mr. and Mrs. Grey Hege were

December i4, at their home on
Sanford Road, Mocksville.The refreshment table was
overlaid with a white satin cloth
which was draped with gold
tinsel and red bells. The cen-

The gifts of the Magi are often
I held to symbolize the kingship
of Jesus: (Gold) his deity;
(Frandencense) his humanity; (Myrrh) used in embalming.
They signify power, Godhead
and atonement.
The Magi’s gifts are those
which our Savior wishes from bis followers today. He would
have us do his will as his sub- I jects. He would have us wor-
I ship him as our God. He would
I have us accept his sacrifices of
our sins. Those are the
Christmas Gifts from us that
will please him most.I And lesser gifts, such as a

After 26 Years As Social Editor
By Gordon Tomlinson
It was the year that Harry
Truman defeated Thomas E.
Dewey to win the presidency in what the pollsters said to be one of the greatest upsets ever.
It was the year the Mocksville
Jaycees organized and W. Kerr Scott was elected governor of North Carolina.
It was the year of 1948.
And this was the year tliat Margaret Allison Le Grand joined what was then THE
MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE
as social editor. At that time
the paper was being published
by Mr. and Mrs. O.C. McQuage.The newspaper at that time consisted of 8 pages, 7-columns
to the page. The social page
consisted of what was called a
"Personal Column”, consisting
of items concerning the visiting of people, back and forth; a few weddings and parties, etc.
Two local couples to be
married by Mrs. Le Grand on her social page that year were
Janie Sue Naylor to Samuel Leo
Cozart; Louise Caudell toSheek
Bowden, Jr,And 26-years ago this issue,
Mrs. Le Grand in her social
column reported that;
Mrs. O.H. Perry of
Washington arrived to spend Christmas with Miss Willie Miller,Dr, Marshall Sanford,
surgeon at John Hopkins
Hospital, arrived to spend the
holidays with his father, R.B.
Sanford, Sr.George Martin, student at Duke University and Lester

retiring that column title as an honor to her. Hereafter, such a column will bear another title.
Being a part of this
newspaper family for 26 years has made her a part of all her associates. It would be most
superfulous to say she will be
missed as it is to say you miss
the amputation of a leg or arm
to which you have become so accustomed.
So in bidding,a farewell to
Margaret Le Grand as an active
associate in this endeavor, we, the staff of the ENTERPRISE- RECORD, are retaining many
fond memories of this most
gracious person. We will
continue to value her friend
ship, as we are sure all her
many friends tluoughout tlie community.

Hubert Eaton.
Mary Neil Ward of Green
sboro College and Jack Ward of
the University of North
Carolina are spending the holidays with their parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Grady Ward.
And of course there were
others.
Throughout the past 26 years,
Mrs, Le Grand has viewed and
reported on the social life of this
community. In addition, she
has taken millions of telephone
calls, taken in classified ads and newspaper subscriptions, plus
other activities required of anyone associated with a weekly newspaper.
Through the years she has
worked for four publishers:
O.C. McQuage, Mrs. O.C.
McQuage, Eugene Bowman,
and the writer of this article.
She has been a part of the growth and expansion of this
newspaper from a format of 8- pages, 7<olumn per issue, to
the present average of around 32-pages, B-coiumn per issue.With this issue Mrs, Le Grand
is retiring as social editor. This

4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, REGULAR ISSUE, DECEMBER 26, 1974 - PRINTED, DECEMBER 21, 1974
James Goodin Is 15-Year Patrol Veteran
by David Hoyle
Second in seniority among Davie County Highway Patrolmen is Trooper James
Goodin, a 15-year veteran of the patrol.
Bom and raised in Newton, N.C., the 41-
year-old trooper joined the North Carolina
Highway Patrol in 19S9 and was stationed
in Stanley, N.C. for 10 years before being transferred to Mocksville in 1969.
Trooper Goodin has attended a number
of law enforcement training schools In his
years on the patrol including In-Service Schools and AssignmenU, Basic Highway
Patrol School, Annual In-Service Schools
and Annual Firearms Training, all
sponsored by the Highway Patrol.
He has also taken schooUng on chemical
tests for alcohol, sponsored by the N.C. Department of Community Colleges.
Trooper Goodin has never had to fire his
gun in the line of duty, however he has had
some gruesome experiences and narrow
escapes during his years of service.
One event that stands out In his mind involves his stopping a United States
Congressman from Louisiana for speeding
while stationed in Stanley.
They were standing between their two
cars as Trooper Goodin was writing his
ticket when a tractor trailer slammed Into
the cars, knocking them together and fatally injuring the congressman.
Both cars were a total loss but Goodin
managed to escape with minor injuries.
"Needless to say, I don't stand between
James Goodin
cars anymore,” he said.
Promoted to Trooper 111 in 1971, Goodin
is married to the former Anne Blackman,
also of Newton, and they now live on Wandering Lane in Mocksville.
The Goodins have four children, Jim
my,19, who is in M.P. School in the U.S.
Army and Debbie, 20; Donnie, 17; and Amy, II, who all are at home.
Trooper Goodin served four years in the
U.S. Air Force during the Korean Conflict and is ordained as a Deacon in the First
Baptist Church in Mocksville.
He is a member of Masonic Lodge 134
and a member and past patron of
Mocksville Chapter Number 173 of the Eastern Star. He is also treasurer of the
Davie County Law Enforcement
Association.
“I'd like to thank the people of Davie
County for accepting me and my family when we came here,"Goodin said. “We
have grown to love the community,” he
added, “we’ve found a home.”

(Continued From Page 1)
drivers did not always know whether they were in a business district, residential
district, or on the open road unless there
were signs posted to tell them so.
To simplify things, the new law sets the
speed limit at 35 m.p.h. inside city limits
and 55 m.p.h. outside municipal corporate limits, unless otherwise post^. The State
Board of Transportation or a minlcipality
may change the limits by posting the
proper signs.
If you got a set of air shocks for Christmas so you could make your car look
like it is driving down hill all the time, you
can only enjoy it until January 1.
Once the new year gets here, it will be
unlawful to elevate or lower the front or
rear of a passenger motor vehicle by more
than six inches from the manufacturer's
specified height.If the New Year's Eve party to which
you are going includes bottled spirits in
addition to the regular holiday variety,
then think hard before you drive home.
As of January 1st, it will be unlawful to
operate a vehicle on the high-way or public
vehicular area with .10 percent or more
alcohol by weight in your blood.Of course that has always been unlawful
but such a reading was considered prima
facie evidence that one was under the
influence. Consequently, many persons
were able to get acquittals with much
higher levels of alcohol if they could show
they were not "under the influence.”
Under the new law, simply having that
much alcohol while driving is an offense carrying the same penalties as a con-
Jaycee Give Party
For Area Cliildren
The Mocksville Jaycees held their an

children of the area Friday night at the
Natipnal Guard Armory.
Approximately 40 children and 70
Jaycettes attended and the children
received gifts of shirts and blouses, dolls,
silly putty, and a bag of fruit, candy and nuts.
Santa CHaus paid a visit. Games were
played. Refreshments of cookies and Kool
ade were served. Intertainment was by a magician.
Bruce Tuttle was the Jaycee chairman
in charge of the project. He expressed
special thanks to Alma Mills, Louise
Clement, Jenny Turner, Jerri Cozart and
all the Jaycettes for their assistance.“I also wish to thank Steve Walker, as
Santa Claus, and the committee of Joe
Mando, Phil Deadmon, plus all the
Jaycees”, said Mr. Tuttle. “Also special
thanks goes to Monleigh Garment Com
pany and Heffner's Land of Food for their
donations. Thanks to Sgt. Jack Koontz and

viction for driving under the influence.A new offense, death by vehicle, was
added to the state highway laws to
prosecute persons who unintentionally
cause the death of another person while in
violation of any state or local law or or
dinance reguarding operation of a motor
vehicle.
Death by vehicle, which was instated
because of difficulty in recent years of convicting persons of involuntary man
slaughter, is a misdemeanor punishable
by a fine of not more than $500 or im
prisonment for not more than two years or
both.
On your way to the party, you may turn
right at a red light after stopping but do not
try it after midnight, January 1st. Through legislative error, the bill was
repealed and a right turn on red will not be
legal after January 1st.
These are not all the laws to be altered,
amended or added that will affect North
Carolina Drivers in 1975. The total number
(around 40) would be loo long to print and many are so technical or limited in scope
that they would little interest the average
driver.
Hopefully, these few listed here will
make some motorists aware of changes
that will affect most drivers, ail of which become effective with the new year.

Wreaths Got
Pagan Start
During this holiday season,
a wide variety of colorful wreaths deck the doorways
of home.s in this community.
The use of wreaths at holiday time stems from the customs of Advent seoson — the
four Sundays before Christmas. Traditionally, Advent wreaths are made of ever
greens, trimmed with ribbons, and hold four candles
to be lit during the Sundays of Advent.
The wreath, which has no beginning or end, represents eternity, and the evergreens
symbolize growth and life, according to the editors of
the New Book of Knowledge.
Like many other Christian holiday customs, the Advent wreath originated In pagan
rerpmonles.
During the dark days of the winter solstice, the sun-
worshippers of northern Europe sought to please their
absent god, the sun, and persuade him to return, by using a wheel trimmed with green
ery.
The wreath was made of an actual wheel, taken from a cart and wrapped in greens.
Lights, too, were added.
Christmas
"May we not spend Christ
mas, but keep it, that we may be
kept in hope, through Him who
emptied Himself in coming to us
that we might be filled with peace and joy in returning to
God.”

II is easier to perceive error
than to find truth, for the former
lies on the surface and is easily
seen, while the latter lies in the
depth, where few are willing to
search for it.Goethe
There’s No Santa In Bethlehem
There is no Santa Claus here in Bethlehem, town where Jesus
was born.Wr'stern yulelirir traditions
don’ti'xisl in Bethlehem, but the
Carlson family of Tacoma, Wash,, has grown accustomed
to the deprivations and even
prefers some of them.
"Christmas seems closer to tile essence hcrp than in the
West, where it is very com
mercialized," says the Rev.
Howard Carlson, who runs a
hospital financed by the Presbyterian Church.
The family will cut its own
Christmas tree from a forest on
the Biblical Judean Hills. If they are lucky, says the
reverend, they might find some
decorations gathering dust in an
Arab shop.
The Christmas turkey will
come from a nearby kibbutz or farming settlement, run by
Orthodox Jews.Christmas can be a lonely
affair for the handful of
Americans in this little town of
25,000.Foreigners like the Rev. Mr.
Carlson, who has spent nine
years here, are caugh' between
the emnity of Israelis and
^-abs.
In the 1967 Mideast war,
when Israel captured Bethlehem from Jordan,
Israeli artillery shells fell near
the Carlson's comfortable stone
house. "We had to get under the
tables.” he says.
Rumors spread among the Arabs that the Carlsons were
American spies, and many
times they heard
Betheiehemites muttering,
“We'll get you Americans.”
Still angered by American military supplies to Israel,
Palestinian refugee children
recently threw stones at his 10-
year -old son, causing a head
injury, he said.
Arsonists have several times
tried to burn down the hospital
outside Bethlehem, which the
Rev. Mr. Carlson administers.
"You grow used to the
dangers, and you live with them," he says. "These are not
all sophisticated, intelligent
people and In a way you can
iinriprst.nnrt their reactions to
Americans."
A joyou.ii Christmas
mas tradition for Mex
ican boys and girls is
the breaking of the
pifiata, a dccorateci
earthen jar.
Sometimes, the piii-
ata may boacaricalurc

The piiiata is sus

When it’s broken,

The children scrab- |

WBTV News feels that the
time has come to take a new
direction. Beginning around the
first of the year, Channel 3 will present a new series dealing
with people, products and the
services they use. The series of broadcasts will be presented as
a feature of the “Scene
Tonight”, WBTV’s daily news
show.
With the introduction of this
new series on consumerism, Channel 3 has chosen to close
down its’ “Answer Desk.” Since
September of 1970, the “Answer
Desk” responded to an
estimated 50,000 letters and telephone calls.
In addition, WBTV is
producing a booklet of in
formation that will help viewers
answer questions on their own.
The booklet is now being printed
and information on how it can be ordered will be forthcoming
shortly.

Central Expects Many Calls
With the holiday season less
than a week away. Central
Telephone Company is
prepared for one of its busiest long distance calling periods of
the year.
Ralph Harris, Manager, said
Christmas Eve ranks as the
most heavily used holiday time
for long distance circuits. Christmas night is a close
second.
Harris advises Central
customers that by calling at less busy times such as the af
ternoon of Christmas Eve or
morning or afternoon on
December 25, there is more
assurance that calls can be
completed when desired.Customers may also direct
dial their long distance holiday
greetings, Harris said, thereby
eliminating the need to go
through an operator as well as
affecting a savings with lower direct dial rates.
In The Heart
It is Christmas in the heart
that put Christmas in the air.
A. A. Ferguson
Although Christmas will be a
holiday for most Central
customers, Harris said, it will be a full working day for
operators who will be available
to assist with long distance
service.

Mistletoe, Suntn Claus, letters to Siintu, ChriKtinas customs
galore — where did they all begin?
The customs of Chrisistmas come from many lands and
many eras. They evolve from pagan ceremonies into Chris
tian rituals. And they stretch from West to East, from North
to South, as each country contributes something spccial and
traditional to the celebrations of the holiday.
When seasonal gaiety rings out in Canada, the merriment
is echoed in Mexico. When North or South Americans gather
for Christmas festivities, the people of Sweden arc doing the
SI,me — and so are the peoples of Holland and France and
Italy and Spain and countless other European countries.
In the far East, Christian communities spread the customs
of Christmas, which mingle with the year-end ccremonies
observed by those of other faiths.
That the legend and lore of Christmas knows no boundaries
is illustrated in the following round-up of Yuletide customs,
based oif information provided by the editors of the Encyclo
pedia International.
In G e rm a n y
A procession which blends pagan and Christmas cus
toms Is part of the legend and lore of the holiday In Ruppln, Germany. A rider on
a white horse, symbolizing
the horse of the pagan god Wotan, leads the parade. He Is followed by Father Christ
mas, who Is decked with ribbons and carries candy and
fruit.
In S w itzerland
A Swiss custom that dates back to the Middle Ages is
to start the New Year free of debts. December 6th, the
feast of St. Nicholas of Myra, the first Santa Claus, is the day set to meet all monetary
obligations such as rents and mortgages.
In E n g la n d
From the north of England
comes the happy custom of the kissing bough. A large
hoop, twined with greens, is decorated with apples and candle^. And In the center
there’s mistletoe— signal for exchanging kisses.
In A ustria
Custom of writing letters to Santa Claus may have be
gun in Austria, where, long
ago, it was an Advent tradition for children to write letters containing lists of what
they’d like to receive on St. Nicholas’ Day.
In Ita lyFrom Italy comes a most
poetic addition to Christmas
lore. For three weeks during the Christmas season, children traditionally go from
place to place reciting Christmas poems. They expect coins
in return, to buy holiday goodies.
In Sw eden
An ancient custom that is still observed in some Swedish households today is that
of “dipping bread into the pot.” Each person dips a
piece of bread into pork and sausage drippings and eats it
for good luck.
In H o lla n d
For St. Nicholas season, it’s
traditional in Holland to make flat cakes called Klass- Jes, Once exclusively made in
the form of the bishop, St. Nicholas, Klassjes now take
any form of bird, beast or
fish.
In F rance
At Salers in central France,
Hi! Merry Christmas

old-time tradition calls for a
king and queen to rule over Christmas festivities. Rulers
pay for the privilege, since they are “elected” by bidding
at an auction held on the
church steps^_______________
T in y T reasure H u n l
The simplest searching
game is one in which one person leaves the room while
another hides a small object that has been aereed upon
beforehand — a small package, some wrapped Christ
mas candy.When "It” comes back, he
hunts for the object and the other person Indicates that
he Is near it by clapping loudly or saying, “You’re
warm.”When "It” moves away from the object, the other
person claps softly or says,
"You’re getting cold.”

Christmas gatherings just naturally turn Into parties— friends and relatives drop in
with holiday greetings, and all of a sudden it’s a party!
Party games designed spe
cially for the season can spur on the fun.
For groups large or small, parties planned or Impromp
tu, the following entertaining ideas are suggested.
One way to "break the ice," especially when all of the
guests are not well acquainted with each other. Is to play a guessing game. A Christ
mas Personality game can be played by pinning a name
such as “Rudolph," “Santa” or “Christmas Angel” on the backs of several guests. Then each tries to guess his name
by hints others give.
Another way to start a party is to start the guests out thinking I Have a little
jcontest and see who can spell the most words with the letters in “Chrismas.”
M usical C andy Cane
A lively combination version of Musical Chairs and
Hot Potato makes use of some unbreakable symbol of
Christmas festivities — a small package, one of the
sturdier tree ornaments, a big candy cane.
One person who is not playing puts on a Christmas record. Everyone sits in a close
circle and passes the object around. When the music sud
denly stops, the person who
has the object in his hand is out. This continues until the circle is reduced to one — the
winner!• * *
P in llii' Star
Children never tire of exciting party games, while the adults may need a rest. One
game that Is loads of fun for kids to play and adults to
watch is a seasonal version of “Pin the Tall on the Don
key.” This one is “Pin the Star on the Christmas Tree.”
It’s easy to cut a large
shape of a Christmas Tree out of green construction
paper and tape it to a wall or door, making sure it Is low
enough for the littlest guest
to reach the top.
Each child gets a paper
star with tape on the back and takes his turn being blindfolded and spun bround.
The one who can place his star closest to the top of the
tree wins.

Honoring Christmas,
In Poetry and Prose
“I will honor Christmas
in my heart, and try to keep it all year.”
So wrote Charles Dickens,
for whom Christmas was a
favorite topic — so much so
that most people, asked to
name someone who wrote
about Christmas, would im
mediately answer, "Dick
ens.”
Not only Dickens, but al
most every writer, from the
little-known to the famous,
has been inspired at some time In his career to “honor Christmas" in prose or po
etry. For Instance —
At Christmas I no more desire a rose Than wish a snow in May’s new-fangled mirth.But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
At Christmas play and make good cheer,For Christinas comes but once a year.

iceptional Children Services Increase
Purlng 1973-74 North Carolina
plic Schools served 116,661
|!eptional children in
_;rams designed to meet
|ir individual needs, acting to statistics recently
bpiled from principals’ year-
reports to the Department
I Public Instruction and
cial local unit reports to the
rlAon for Exceptional
“This figure," said ! R. Drain, director of Division for Exceptional
jidren, “is an increase of
over the 1972-73 total;
jirever, the number still
nts only about 37 per-
of the State's estimated [iber of school-aged children
are either mentally or
[rsically handicapped,
hiing disabled, emotionally
(urbed, speech and-or
ring impaired, or gifted and nted.”
alysis of the data revealed
le increases in numbers of
[dren served in several
gram areas. In the area of iearning disabilities, some 8,065 children were enrolled in
special programs in 1973-74, an
increase of 37.5 percent over
last year, said Drain. Other
areas indicating sizable increases included hospitalized- homebound, growing from 1,954
children in 1972-73 to 3,661 in
1973-74, and gifted and talented,
moving from 25,490 to 29,815.
Special instructional programs
a so served 2,159 children with emotional handicaps; 39,015
educable mentally retarded;
208 hearing impaired; 28,748
speech impaired; and 3,676
trainable mentally retarded.
Only two programs showed a
decrease in numbers of children served, the crippled and the visually impaired. Only 756
children were in programs for
the crippled in 1973-74, a
decrease of 139 as compared to
1972-73 enrollment. Services for
children with visual handicaps
last year were provided to 558
children as opposed to 1,066 the
year before. According to
Drain, removal of architectural
barriers, increased mobility,
control of crippling diseases,
and more accurate reporting of children needing the services of
a special teacher account for
the decreases in these areas.
The total number of teachers
of exceptional children funded
by federal, state and local
sources was 3,163, an increase
of 215 over the 1972-73 school
year.Approval by the 1974 General
Assembly of an $8.1 million
increase in funding for programs for exceptional
children is expected to provide
services to several thousand additional children during the present school year. The State
Board of Education has in
cluded in its 1975-77 budget
request an additional $45
million to aid local school units in meeting the requirements of the Equal Education Op
portunities Act which
guarantees appropriate
education to all children with
special needs.
The $45 million would provide over 700 new teaching positions, including 204 in the area of
learning disabilities; staff
development activities; 110
school psychologist positions;
and an increase in the grant-in-
aid program for trainable
mentally retarded children and
in the education expense grants available to severely han
dicapped children whose needs
cannot be- met in Me public
schools.
Funds also are being
requested for positions for local su^rvisory personnel and an
average daily membership
allocation of $5.00 per child to
each local unit to be used only
for children who have been
identified as having special
needs. “These funds would
provide a giant step in guaranteeing the needed
support for providing appropriate services,” Drain
added. “According to an ap
proved plan the funds could be
used to hire physical therapists

The textbook selection process
probably is one of the least
understood aspects of North
Carolina education. Amidst national controversy and
debate about textbook selection,
North Carolina’s State Text
book Commission spends thousands of hours of study and
deliberation before selecting
books to be used in Tarheel
classrooms.
And contrary to a commonly
held misconception, these books are not picked arbitrarily by the 12 members of the Textbook
Commission. “It just doesn’t
work that way,” according to
Ms> Joyce Wasdell, assistant
superintendent in Durham County Schools and chairman of
the Textbook Commission. “On
a particular text, each com
mission member will have several people reading the book and giving their advice. On a
single book, we will have input
from 75 to 100 people. Twelve
people just don’t pick a text
arbitrarily."The job of the Textbook Commission is a tough one. Ms.
Wasdell’s office is often
crammed to the ceiling with
textbooks set aside for nothing but Textbook Commission
work. And it isn’t unusual for
Commission members to devote
their Saturdays to textbook
work.
Legend, Lore O f
Holiday Takes
Varied Forms
The belief that Santa has a reindeer-drawn sleigh and
enters homes through the chimney may have come
from Scandinavia. An old Norse legend about the god
dess Hertha said that she rode on a reindeer’s back.
Her appearance in the fireplace in mid-winter was thought to bring good luck
to the home.
Here, in simplified terms, is a step-by-step description of the
textbook adoption process in
North Carolina:
The first step is the appointment of the Textbook
Commission. Members are
named by the Governor, on the
recommendation of the State
Superintendent of Public Instruction. The law provides that the Commission shall be
composed of 12 members, 7 of
whom shall be outstanding
teachers or principals In the
elementary grades, and 5
outstanding teachers or principals in the high schools.
There is an added proviso that one of the members will be a
county or city superintendent.
The State Board of Education
authorized textbook adoptions
as set forth in the State law. The State Superintendent
notifies members of the
Commission that there is to be an adoption in a given subject
area. The State Superintendent
also notifies all textbook
publishers of the adoption call and invites them to submit any materials they would like to
have considered.
Before books are considered,
members of the Commission
and the professional staff of the
Department of Public Instruction develop a thorough
overview of the program of
studies and develop a concise
Child Age Range Helps
Determine Toy Choice
“Silent Night, Holy Night"
was written in 1818 by a vil
lage priest in Hallein, Austria. Father Joseph Mohr wrote the words, to an ac
companiment created by his organist, Franz Oruber.
Legend has it that the church organ was out of
order — damaged by mice — and so “Silent Night" was first sung to a guitar accom
paniment.* * *
Who invented that popular
holiday beverage, eggnog? It has been part of the festivities for so many years that nobody really knows Its origin.
One possibility is that eggnog came from the Old English hot drink, sack-posset,
which was also made of eggs, milk, nutmeg and sugar.
RALEIGH — Dolls,
trucks, blocks, drums,
guns, paints, games, sleds,
trains. Ever stood before
, shelves and shelves of
' toys and wondered just
which one to choose for
that special youngster’s
birthday?
Certain toys usually top
the list of favorites at any
given age, notes Dr. Cyn
thia Bishop, extension hu
man development special
ist, North Carolina State
University.
For instance, two- to
four-year-olds like push-
and-pull and pedal toys
such as trucks, cars, wag
ons, wheelbarrows and
doll carriages. They enjoy
manipulating building
blocks, clay, crayons,
paint and chalk.
Of course, stuffed ani
mals, dolls, inflatable toys,
simple musical instru
ments and sand and water
playthings are popular.
But just make sure your
choice doesn’t demand too
much fine muscle coordi
nation.
The four- to six-year-
old still likes active physi
cal play. Gym equipment,
such as low bars, rings
and swings are welcome.
Wheel toys and sleds also
make popular gifts.
Children of this age are
increasing in manipula
tive skill, so construction
toys, tools, puzzles, mod
els, drawing sets, and clay
will be appreciated. All
sorts of costumes make
role-playing more “real.”

The six- to eight-year-
old starts to show an in
terest in group play and
simple hobbies. So games
requiring two or more
players and hobby equip
ment fill the bill. House
keeping toy accessories
and dress-up costumes are
still popular, as are tra
peze bars, rings and paral
lel bars.'
The eight-to ten-year-
old age range is the hob
by stage. Hobbies change
from time to time — but
they are absorbing while
they last. Playhouses, kit
es, gym equipment, stilts
and boxing gloves satisfy
the need for physical play.
But mental games involv
ing spelling, arithmetic,
geography and literature
also are popular.
Decorating with Cards
Can Be Yule Project
When children need a change from the toys on
Christmas day, a promising project could be to let them see what they can do with
the family greeting cards.
Here are some suggestions
from Jeannette Lee, art director for Hallmark.
Tape or staple cards to
lengths of ribbon and hang them oh walls or doors.
Make a Christmas wreath by attaching cards to a circle
of cardboard.
"Frame” cards with construction paper.
Decorate a screen w ith'
cards.
statement of philosophy, goals, and objectives for the subject
area under consideration. This
statement reflects any changes or innovations in the program
and takes into account current
trends and emphasis stemming
from sound, authoritative
research and experimentation.During the review and
evaluation process the Com
mission members secure the
help of as many advisers as they wish. The number will vary, but the usual practice has
been for each member to select
8 lo 12 such advisers. Each
member tries to secure a
representative group including
classroom teachers, college personnel, supervisory and
administrative personnel, lay
persons, and students.
Once the review process is
completed, each Commission member files a written
evaluation of every book sub
mitted. These reports are
delivered to the State
Superintendent. At the next
meeting of the State Board of Education after evaluation
reports are filed, the members
of the Commission meet with
the Board for joint review and
considerations of the reports.
In the evaluation of textbooks, the members of the Commission
do not concern themselves in
any way with the prices of the
book or its physical features.
Following the joint session of
the Textbook Commission and the State Board of Education to consider the findings and
recommendations of the
Commission, the Board officially calls for scaled bids on
those books which the Com
mission found to be most ap
propriate. Bids are customarily received on five to eight books.
At the next meeting the bids are
opened and contracts awarded.
Where significant differences in
the appropriateness of books were noted by the Commission,
the Board traditionally has
placed priority on securing the
best materials available. The
textbook selection process normally takes four to six
months.
North Carolina carries a
massive inventory of textbooks.
According to Claude Warren, director of the Division of
Textbooks for the State
education agency, the State has
an inventory of about 10 million
basic textbooks. In an average
year, about 3 million new boolcs are added.
The current trend is for
multiple titles to be adopted at
each grade level, Warren said.
Selecting texts from the
multiple listing is the responsibility of each school unit. The Division of Textbook s pur
chases and distributes text
books to the schools.
North Carolina’s textbook
selection system has become a
model for the nation and people from other states often visit to see how the system works. “It
has given us the best possible
textbooks at the lowest possible
price," noted Warren.
C h fis tm o s is for good will,
peace . . . a time to express our gratitude.

The Christmas tree in the Day
Care Center in the basement of
the B. C. Brock Community
Center, Mocksville resembles the traditional tree used many
years ago.
There are no lights, shiny ornaments, tinsel or other store-
bought decorations hanging
from it's branches, and yet the
tree is most attractive.
The teachers and a great
number of mothers of the children used their creative
imagination along with bits and
pieces of whatever they could
find to make the lovely and
colorful decorations.
From pieces of silver X-Ray
paper they constructed the German Bell, with strips of wall
paper they formed a rope
garland and with pieces of
colorful ribbon and beads they
made other attractive or
naments.
Using yarn, calico print,
spools, beads, popcorn, felt
material and sequins, a great
variety of ornaments were made. Using their own
initiative, they cut patterns for
miniture snowmen, candy
canes, bells and little stockings,
which they sewed together and
stuffed to give them an even better shape.
The Day Care teachers were very complimentary to all the
mothers, too numerous to
mention, who spent so much
time and worked so faithfully on
the project; and also to the
children who assisted them.
Stephen H ill, left, and Darrell take a closer look at the hand-made orna
ments which their moms helped to make.

in Europe, as a friend to children. Legend finds him mak
ing his rounds on December 6th, the eve of St. Nicholas
Day, with gifts to reward children for good behavior.
' Instead of a Jolly red suit, St.
Nicholas wore a robe, or tabard, and for that reason he really didn’t need a sleigh, or even a horse. His robe enabled him to travel from place to
place, Instantly.
In Holland, however, he was isald to use a horse for his
Journey at night over the roofs.
Dutch ssttlers brought St. Nicholas to the New World,
where he gradually changed his name to Santa Claus and
traded his horse and robe for "reindeer and a red suit.■ It was Clement C. Moore, In
■his poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas” who made Santa

Cards Have Clue
To History Of
Gift Giver
Greeting card history offers
a clue to Santa evolution as a holiday symbol!The theme of Santa Claus was conspicuously absent from most nineteenth century
Christmas cards, points out Miss Esther Mooney, curator
of the Norcross Historical Collection. Early cards frequently
favored children and flowers.When Santa did appear oc
casionally on a greeting card. It was generally In the form o f'a dour, rather sad-faced Father Christmas, robed In a monk's blue garb and long
gray beard, or as “Saint Santa,” a seml-rellglous figure de
veloped from St. Nicholas.Tliese were a far cry from
the rotund, red-cheeked Santa depicted on Christmas
greeting cards of today.
The modern Santa, fat and friendly, began to emerge at
the turn of the century, and about 1909 he appears on a
Christmas card. Here he is shown mounted on a hobby
horse, rather than a reindeer- drawn sleigh.The card shows him wearing
the now-famillar red jacket, but his trousers still were blue. His stern expression, however, has given way to a slight
whimsical smile, brightening his white-bearded, cherub- llke face.
The concept of the reindeer
sleigh was a still later addition In greeting card history. The
early Santa walked with a wheelbarrow or carried his
toys In a straw basket attached to his back, or rode a horse.
Today, a jolly Santa Claus,
his originally blue robe changed to red, and riding his now traditional reindeer sleigh, is a dominating Christmas card
theme.

For the children, this is the
very best Christmas that ever was. The adults agree — but still, they' look back a little
wistfully at the Christmases of yesteryear, with nostalgic
thoughts of “a good old-fashioned Christmas,” or of a spe
cial Christmas memory.
Memories enhance the seasonal Joys, and with good rea

have taken place at the Christmas season.

momentous occasions, joyous or poignant, as well as many
of the little things that give bygone times living meaning

When Santa Claus comes
sliding down the chimney on Christmas Eve, where will he land?Right in the fireplace, an
area that has been a traditional part of Christmas for more years than Santa has worn a red suit!
Before the turn of the century, Santa Claus, or St. Nich
olas, frequently wore a blue robe, although Clement Clarke
Moore, In “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” pictured him as
“clad all In fur, from his head
to his foot."But for centuries, the fireplace has been a treasured and often vital part of the home.The fireplace as It exists today— that Is, the firebox along
the wall, with a chimney Instead of an open fire In the middle of the room — dates from about 1066.
Built of Wood
Early fireplaces were built of wood or wicker, but they
proved so dangerous that In the year 1419 the City of Lon
don decreed that henceforth fireplaces be made of tiles,
stone or plaster, under the penalty of being demolished.
A greatly Improved system of making tiles was adopted by
the Dutch from the Spaniards following the Treaty of Breda In 1609, and paved the way for more elaborately decorated
ceramics on fireplace facings, walls and mantels.
The use of such tiles for fire
places soon spread to England, and then to the Colonies.
Skilled Dutch craftsmen decorated ceramic tiles with
designs of oranges, grapes, tulips, vases of flowers, ships, sea monsters, landscapes, horsemen and royal portraits.The English used similar
pictures and added many charming scenes designed by renowned artists, including Kate Greenaway, famed for
her Christmas card designs.Set a Precedent
These tiles were used both to line the fireplace and on
mantels and other surfaclngs, setting a precedent for modern flreplaces.
In America, the Pilgrims
built crude stone fireplaces.
then constructed their log
huts around them.Today, as In those earlier
years, ceramic tile remains a

Of St. Nicholas
Long before Santa trav
eled by sleigh, St. Nicholas, special guardian of chil
dren, set forth on foot, or rode by horse or donkey, to
bring gifts to European homes.
The good saint’s day Is December 6th, and "on the
eve of his festival day,” writes an Encyclopedia Americana authority, “St. Nicholas makes his tour, visiting palace and cottage.
‘The children place receptacles for the gifts, which
St. Nicholas Is expected to
let fall down the chimney. . . . Sometimes shoes are neatly polished for the pur
pose, at other times plates, or baskets, or stockings, or
specially made shoes of porcelain.
“St. Nicholas’ steed . . . Is not forgotten. For him the
children put water and hay, or carrot or potato peeling,
or a piece of bread In the shoe, or basket, or stocking.
“In the morning from the tipped-over chairs and gen
eral disarray In the room It Is evident that St. Nicholas
has been present.“Replacing the oats, or
hay, or carrot are found sweets and playthings for
children who have been good. For bad children, rods
are left, and the fodder is untouched.”
practical and decorative sur
facing material for fireplaces, And Other ‘Santas and the home owner has a far
wider choice to work with than
did early home builders.More than 250 different cer
amic tile sizes, shapes and textures are supplied by Ameri
can manufacturers, says the Tile Council of America.
Just as in the early days, special decorative tiles give the
fireplace a distinctive touch of elegance, to greet Santa when he arrives, via the traditional
route.
Though Santa Claus Is to
day’s most popular Chrlstmas- season gifts giver, he still has
plenty of help.In Northern Europe, many
children await the arrival of St. Nicholas, on the Eve of De
cember 5th. In Spain and Latin America, the "Three Kings”
traditionally bring gifts on Epiphany Eve, January 5th.

Seeking an atmosphere of
safety for all sports and
athletics in North Carolina’s
public schools, that’s the ob
jective of the Department of Public Instruction’s Division of
Sports Medicine.
According to the division’s
Director Ai Proctor, statistics
indicate that nearly 54 percent
of students participating in football, for example, are in
jured some time during the
season to the extent that either
their practice season must be
altered or they arc unable to
play for one or more days.
In 1973, the North Carolina General Assembly funded the
sports medicine program, and
North Carolina bwame the first
State in the nation to officially
recognize the problems of
sports related injuries, Proctor noted.
Today, North Carolina is still
the only state with a statewide
program to reduce injuries and
prevent fatalities among sports
participants in the public schools, and was recently
recognized for efforts in this
area at the American Medical
Association’s National Con
ference on the Medical Aspects
of Sports, in Portland, Oregon.
Nearly 120 fully quailified teacher athletic trainers have
been trained to help high
schools implement com
prehensive sports medicine
programs during the past two
years.
The teacher athletic trainer
idea, says Proctor, grew out of
the realization that while the number of doctors and am
bulance services would not
increase for public school
athletic programs, persons
within the schools could be trained to provide emergency
treatment and-or first aid for
injuries on a day-to-day basis.
Teacher athletic trainers
cannot be successful,”
remarked Proctor, “without the
involvement of physicians, allied health personnel such as
school nurses, physical
therapists, am bulance
technicians, and coaches,
teachers, students, and parents
interested in scholastic sports
activities.”Among the significant
features of the sports medicine
program are the assignment of
game or team physicians for all
home football games, and the
administration of com
p re h e n s iv e m e d ic a l
examinations and re
examinations after injuries, for all students participating in
interscholastic athletic
programs.
Other diversified health
services are coordinated
through various government
agencies and community-based organizations, explained
Proctor.
An extensive public education
program has been achieved,
noted Proctor, largely through
the news media, using public
service television announcements, radio-weather
news broadcasts, and news
releases.For example, the U. S.
Weather Bureau in the state has
been urged to provide pertinent
information to local radio

RALEIGH-“Would you give
your teenage kid a loaded gun
and expect him not to use it?”
The question was raised
recently as a result of a three- year study into accidents and
deaths from minibikes and
motorcycles by Dr. Page
Hudson, the state’s chi^f
medical examiner. The report
revealed a 20 percent increase in the number of deaths among
unlicensed teenage riders of
minibikes and motorcycles.
Of the 89 minibike and
motorcycle deaths in 1973, 17 of
the victims were unlicensed
riders ranging in age from 10 to
15 years. A total of 10 were riding minibikes. What alarms
Hudson is the fact that 14 were
killed on public streets, or
where they were not supposed
to be.
Although statistics for 1974
are not in yet, Hudson expects
total deaths from two wheel motorbikes to rise above 100
this year. "There has been no
dramatic improvement in the
number of motor bike deaths as
a result of the law that requires
a rider to wear a helmet,”
Hudson said. “The most common cause of death is still
what we call closed head in
juries. The impact to the head
is so severe death results from
the trauma. Broken necks and crushed chests follow close
behind,” he said.
"It is unlawful to ride an
unlicensed minibike on public
streets,” Hudson said. “So, kids ride wherever there is
room to maneuver. Most
minibike fatalities occur when
the rider pops out from woods,
driveways or beside the street.”
Are minibikes and motorcycles as dangerous as people
think? Hudson said statistic
speak for themselves.
"Minlbikes and motorcycles
in the hands of unlicensed,
untrained riders are as
dangerous as a loaded gun,”
Hudson stressed. “If kids are
allowed to own them they should be properly schooled in
safety precautions. And that
goes for adults, too.”
Hudson said he would not
allow his son to own a motor
bike of any kind.
stations regarding the relative
humidity and heat factors and
what their effects would be
during preseason football
practice sessions, Proctor said.
Trainers and coaches were
given guidelines to follow in
regard to adjusting their practice schedules in an effort
to combat heat illnesses.
During 1974, the Department
of Health, Education, and
Welfare awarded North Carolina’s sports medicine
program a $34,000 grant for the
development and im
plementation of a television-
assisted course of instruction
for prospective public school
teacher athletic trainers.
The course consists of 48 hours of instruction, one-third of
which is telecast via
educational television, with the
other two-thirds devoted to
classroom and laboratory in
struction, Proctor explained.He added, it outlines basic
concepts of anatomy, con
centrating on those parts of the
body most frequently involved
in sports injuries. General treatment and rehabilitation
procedures for specific injuries
are also detailed.

In Search Of The American Dream XIII:
Ideals A nd O th er Deals In T h e ‘20s
(Editor’s Note: This Is the 13th of 18 articles exploring the theme, in Search or the American Dream. This article discuMes the days of turmoil In the 1920s and the problems with material abundance. The author is professor of English arid comparative literature at University of California, Irvine.)
By JAY MARTIN
Copyright, 1974, Regenu of the University of California
Distributed by Copley News Service
America entered the 20th Century as a major industrial
nation, and it seemed to many that a new era of growth and prosperity was at hand. If Industrialization had brought new social ills and a concentration of power in
the hands of big business, the Progressives were
convinced that a variety of proposed reforms would
enable America to realize its democratic ideals.Yet within a few years, a series of domestic and international crises sorely tested the ideals and
institutions of the nation.Much later, F. Scott Fitzgerald could write of the years
before World War I as a period that possessed
“character." Charles Wales, the hero of Fitzgerald’s “Babylon Revisited,’’ wanted to "jump back a whole generation and trust in character again.” President Woodrow Wilson’s moral fevor, purity of purpose, and
missionary single-mindedness reflect^ the democratic
dream of virtue in public as well as In private behavior.
When Wilson told an audience in 1914, "there are some
simple things in the world. One . . is principle,’’ many Americans agreed. When he declared in 1915 that “America.. will not fight... because peace is the healing and elevating influence of the world,” he expressed the
scorn of most Americans for European squabbles.
Even when he reversed himself and on April 2, 1917,
asked Congress to declare war, his reasons were utopian and visionary - to make the world "safe for democracy” and to achieve "the liberation of Its peoples.” Such aims assumed the existence of a vigorously virtuous American
character.But the moral zeal with which Americans entered World War I soon faded. Former president Taft denounced Wilson as an “autocrat.” Many young people
pronounced the war a hoax and agreed with Ezra Pound in disavowing "old men’s lies.” There was a general
disillusion with idealism and a rapid growth of Isolationism. By 1919, when Wilson toured America to defend the Peace Treaty and the League of Nations, he had lost the support of Congress; and most citizens, worried by recession, disturbed by labor unrest, and tired
of foreign entanglements, were no longer moved by
Wilsonian utopianism. Despite their wartime sacrifices,
they were still this side of paradise.It was time to turn to a new goal and to elect a new president who would bring them the benefits of “normalcy." Whatever that was, it was not “character.” "Gaudy Days”In the summer of 1919, Sherwood Anderson described
what Americans did want when he observed, “These are
gaudy days.” Warren Harding, elected president in 1920,
stated his program clearly: “Prosper America first.” He declared himself “old-fashioned and even reactionary on matters of faith and morals” and conducted his campaign from the front porch of his Marion, Ohio, home. His popularity was probably due, some historians have
argued, to Americans’ desire to evade the domestic and
foreign wrangles that progressivism had brought.
Harding’s small town behavior suited a “politics of
nostalgia,” and his running mate, Calvin Coolidge, had much the same appeal. Coolidge was so spare of speech, as if wary of windy idealism, that one wit quipped:“He opened his mouth and a moth flew, out.” Bo^
Harding and Coolidge were devoted to programs
promising material abundance. Americans listened to their promises and gave them the greatest victory in Republican Party history.Oil And MudBut they might better have listened to Sinclair Lewis,
who showed In “Main Street" (1920) the limitations of an
American society that had become narrow and grasping.
Harding appointed Herbert Hoover, Andrew Mellon, and
Charles Evan Hu^es to the cabinet, but he also gave his cronies and political supporters high posU. In creating what historian Frederick Lewis Allen named “the aristocrat of scandals,” Teapot Dome, these appointees
left a lasting symbol for the misuse of power and wealth. A few months after the Harding administration took office, the Interior Department gained jurisdiction over 47,000 acres of oil-rich federal land in Elk Hills, Calif., and Teapot Dome, Wyo.Secretary of Interior Albert B. Fall leased the oil
reserves to private oil companies, realizing a personal
profit of $409,000 as well as additional contributions to the
Republican Party coffers. Almost by accident, a Senate investigation turned up the evidence of cwruption. Once started, the ripples of scandal widened to encircle other parts of Harding’s administration, including the Office of Veterans' Affairs, where private profit had been made

experiment noble in purpose,” as Herbert Hoover called it, started as a reformist ideal. The evangelist Billy Sunday described the Dry Utopia; "The slums will soon be only a memory. We will turn our prisons into factories
and our jails into storehouses and corncribs. Men will
walk upright now. Women will smile, and the children
will laugh. Hell will be forever for rent.” Other American
ideals also lay behind the centuryold Temperance
movement, which became a way of imposing Anglo- Saxon middle-class values - of hard work, abstinence,
and thrift - upon the newly arrived immigrants and the
working classes, particularly in the cities. Prohibition
was thus, as one sociologist has said, "an invitation
toward assimilation.”
Thai invitation was rejected. Though per capita consumption of alcohol declined during the period 1920-23,
and at no time in the '20s did It reach the 1911-14 level, the
social cost of Prohibition was high. It ushered in urban
gangsterism, and the upper and middle classes made a mockery of the very values of restraint and order that
were recommended to Immigrants and workers. No one
supposed Harding a teetotaler. Some knew that Andrew
Mellon, who as Secretary of the Treasury was responsible
for enforcing Prohibition laws, had investments in
Overholt Whiskey. Nor were people surprised when Mayor Jimmy Walker of New \'ork, where 20,000
speakeasies existed, announced one afternoon to a press
conference called to deny a rumor he had been shot:
“Gentlemen, at this time of the day I am not even half shot.” Ideals had become so clouded that when the
journalist Edward D. Sullivan noted that Al Capone had
“executive ability," “Big Al" picked up the hint. Qieered
at a Northwestern University rally, he described his
success: "1 call myself a businessman. I make my money
by supplying a demand of tlie people.” Mellon's Millions
If Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon was not
personally corrupt, his tax revision plans and
government spending policies shared at least one
assumption with the malefactors of Teapot Dome, the
underworld, and the general public - that virtue resided
in the possession of wealth and power. Completed by 1926, Mellon's programs reduced the maximum surtax to 20
per cent, lowered the basic income tax, and repealed
inheritance and gift taxes, while at the same time
drastically narrowing the activities ot government by
cutting federal expenditures in half. The effect of these
policies was to buttress wealth and wealth-making.Neither Mellon nor most Americans seemed to notice
that the average yearly incomes of farmers, miners, and
construction workers all decreased during the '20s and
that the economic gap between the upper and lower
classes was growing. iVue, in accepting the Democratic
nomination for 1928, Al Smith observed: "When four
million men, desirous to work and support their families, are unable to secure employment, there is very little in
the picture of prosperity to attract them and the million
dependent upon them," But Smith was easily defeated by
Hoover. As F. Scott Fitzgerald remarked: "Even when
you were broke you didn't worry about money because it
was in such profusion around you.” The golden prospects
of prosperity held off protest. Why try to control the accumulation of wealth when anyone might become rich?
Character Revisited
Yet, it would be a mistake to consider the '20s entirely
lacking in idealism or moral character.
Will Rogers and Charles Lindbergh w6re heroic,
enormously popular figures precisely because they made
principle seem clear and honesty simple. Senator George
Norris, who fought the sale of the Muscle Shoals federal dam project to private interests, and the western
senators who led the investigation of the Harding
administration, Robert La Follette, Thomas J, Walsh,
and Burton K, Wheeler, helped to preserve the' pre-war
Progressive spirit and were emblems of purity and
seriousness in politics. Coolidge's descriptions of the
American business system as “one of the great contributing forces to the moral and spiritual
advancement of the human race,” held a considerable
portion of utopian fervor. Idealistic writers, wits, or
philosophers who criticized the shoddy materialism and
moral cynicism of the period were not ignored. Certainly,
the anti-war movement of the '20s was idealistic.
From the beginning of the decade, when 22,165 entrants, including William Jennings Bryan and Franklin
D. Roosevelt, submitted plans to end war in a $100,000
prize contest created by Edward Bok, to 1929, when the
Kellogg-Briand Multilateral Treaty for Renunciation of War was ratified by the Senate, the ideal of peace caught
up a large share of the utopian imagination.
Men in the 1920s may not often have sought character.
But they had not entirely lost it either. Those who, like
Charlie Wales, wished to restore character to American
life did not really have to go back a generation. Indeed,
they were going forward to another decade, the 1930s, in
which their capacities for character would be tested to

predicting the safest Christmas

careful driving, is the major
factor.
The motor club is estimating
that a total of 13 persons will die
in traffic accidents on North Carolina highways during the
Christmas and New Year
holidays.Last year 40 persons were
killed in the state during a 102
hour period for each holiday, and 49 persons died as a result
of accidents in 1972 during 78-
hour periods.The fewest deaths over
Christmas and New Years in
recent years was in 1968 when 11
persons lost their lives during a
similar abbreviated holiday

caution motorists to drive with
care. We are especially concerned over excessive speed
and urge drivers to obey
established speed limits,"
Marion said he was hopeful •
that the weather would not
hamper traffic conditions
during the holiday period, "If the weather is good,” he said, .
“this could be one of our safest
holidays in a long time. We ,
certainly hope so,” ;

Santa’s White Beard, Red Suit Come from Cartoonist Woodleaf News
W H n c rn v o S a n f n # 4aant*IV tA rl t*% u t f t h k r l llf a t i# a r t r l In V n tt.vWho gave Santa his red suit, broad girth, white beard, ruddy cheeks and nose, fur-
trimmed hat and coat?Surprisingly enough, the
donor was a political cartoonist.
The artist's name was
Thomas Nast, cartoonist for Harper's Illustrated Weekly, who also created the now-
famous .symbols of the Republican elephant and the Democratic donkey.
The figure of Santa that
Nast drew In 1863, and perhaps eorller, has proved to be the definitive one, and even
today the figure as drawn by Nast appears occasionally on
Christmas greetings.
"Nast’s image of Santa was
extraordinary," says Mrs. Jeannette Lee, director of
design at Hallmark.
“He gave Santa many of the qualities that have en
deared him to children ever since, and we wouldn’t dream of tampering very much with
them today."
Nast first credited Santa with keeping books on good
and bad children, having a Christmas toy workshop and reading letters sent to him
by children.
Perhaps It was the now- famous poem, "A Visit from
St. Nicholas,” by Dr. Clement Clarke Moore, that Inspired
Nast’s illustration of Santa. In this children’s classic of
1823, the right jolly old elf, who looked like a peddler with a pack on his back, was
first described in print.
Nast followed Dr. Moore’s description of Santa In several particulars, but many of
his concepts were original.
At the time of Nast's Santa Claus drawings the nation was at Civil War, and fam
ilies were separated. In a note to cheer both soldiers and their waiting families
Nast drew "Santa Claus in Camp," for Harper’s Weekly.
This earliest Santa was different from any artist’s
creations up till then. He was shown wearing stars and stripes of the Union and dis
tributing gifts to soldiers. Actually, this Santa might
have been meant as a representation of Uncle Sam also.
A later, equally moving
Nast Illustration featured a soldier’s Christmas home
coming.
Born in 1840 In the tiny hamlet of Landau, Bavaria, Nast probably pictured Santa as the long-imagined Saint Nicholas of his childhood.
Albert Bigelow Paine, a
friend and admirer of Nast, said the artist often revealed to him his love of the Santa
Illustrations. He later wrote In his biography of the car
toonist:
“His own childhood In far- off Bavaria has been meas
ured by the yearly visits of . . . St. Nicholas . . . and the girlhood of the woman who
was to become his wife (Sarah Edwards of New York)
was intimately associated

with brilliant and Joyou.s celebrations.“Nost’s children later re
called there was always a multitude of paper dolls — marvelously big and elabo
rate, a race long since become extinct."And these the artistic father — more than half a child himself at the Christ
mas season — arranged In processions and cavalcades, gay pageants that marched In and about those lorger presents that could not be crowded into the row of stockings that hung by the family fireplace.“It was a time of .splendor
and rejoicing — the festive bios.soming of the winter sea
son — and it was a beautiful and sturdy family that made Merry Chrlstma.s riot in the
spacious New York home."In Nast’s day, the idea of some sort of Santa was not
new to this country. He was Introduced to North America by the eorly Dutch settlers and his name was St. Nicho
las. The annual visit of this kind man, who was thought to have been a fourth-cen
tury bishop, was his feast day, December 6th.
By 1809, Washington Irving was describing Santa as a small Dutch citizen who looked much like Father Knickerbocker. Irving won
dered how the poor old man could get to all the homes in a growing America on his horse, so he invented the fo-
mous reindeer-drawn sleigh.

hildren’s Memory Development Being Studied in UNC-G Project
— morning Joey. We’re
.1 to play some gomes about nory this morning. Do you ,.e a pretty good memory? ^at did you have for breakfast |is morning?"
|0‘ goes the questioning of
nvidual youngsters in the
hd care facilities at tiic ersity of North Carolina at
.jnsboro in a series of ex-
.v'lments developed by Dr.
Ary Fulcher Geis, an assistant Jdfessor in the Department of
■ychology. The testing is
ninistered by Ms. Becky
>ly, a graduate student in the .jooi of Home Economics, the projected study is
Signed to clarify the nature of
^ o ry deficiencies that are
Blbited by pre-school and p g , school-aged children and Is the combined work of Dr.
|s and Dr. Garrett Lange, an
Bistnat professor in the
vision of Child Development B Family Relations of UNC- J School of Home Economics.
^We have concluded that an
portant difference between
memorizing behavior of ng children and that of older Ijldren is the former’s failure planful in his approach to bmc.-y tasks,” Dr. Geis said,
^tie young child, under seven
pelght years of age, does not
lively exploit strategies for
nembering things that ~'ome important when recall J attempted on a later oc-
pion, noted Dr. Geis.
Depehding on whether Joey
nembered if he had cereal or
for breakfast, he is either .npliment'ed for his -nembering or is assured that lis indeed difficult to recall
^ 's breakfast so late in the j (10:30a.m.) Then the game
^ins.
K is played as follows;I- Joey is shown eight pictures J people associated with Irious jobs (cook, football pyer, ballerina, sailor, far- r, etc.). He is asked to ^ntify the people.I Joey is then asked to place ^ eight cardboard “people" in kht unmarked file boxes so ^t he would “be able to find ‘la again.”' The student shows Joey a or chart and asks him to ntify them. The purpose of Is exercise is to clear Joey’s Ind of the task he has just •formed. But by now, Joey discovered the student’s watch and wants to play it. She graciously allows n to push and pull the stem
II then continues with the test,
liyfully yet firmly.1 Joey is now shown another
group of cardboard figures
identical lo those he has placed
in boxes and is asked to place each one next to the box in which he ‘‘remombers’’ placing
the original figures.
When asked how many he thinks he has placed correctly, Joey confidently answers “all."
The moment of truth arrives
and the boxes are opened. Joey happened to have correctly
"remembered” four out of eight
possible matches. He is com
plimented on his work.
Now the boxes are turned around and on the front sides are taped picture cues, half of
which are related to the oc
cupational figures and half arc not. For example, there is a
tepee to relate with the Indian;
a ship to relate to the sailor; a
stove to relate to the cook, et cetera. There arc also “wild"
cues that are unrelated such as
a key or a letter.
Then, this sequence: .- The original occupational
cards are taken out and Joey is
asked to place them in the boxes
again so that he can "remember" where he put each
one.
- The color chart is brought out and the identification is repeated.
- Another set of figures is
bi-ouglil out and Joey is asked lo
place each by the file box in
which he “remombers" placing
the original.- The second moment of trulh
arrives and tlie boxes are
opctied,
This time, Joey has correctly matched seven out of the eight
possibilities. By now, he is
becoming slightly restless, but
is still interested. The test seems to be a challenge to the
five and one-half-year-old’s
attention span.
Next, Joey is asked wiiy he
pul the figures where he did and lie responds by associating the cues (in llie box with the

“Carol, brothers, carol. Carol joyfully.With the coming of Christmas, almost everyone accepts the injunction of the old song lo "carol joyfully." Froni
special church services to family gatherings, a “carol
sing” is a traditional pleasure.The custom of singing carols at holiday time is an ancient one — begun, perhaps, even before the first Chri.st- mas, at celebrations such as the Roman Saturnalia.Modern interest in music, and in learning to play musical Instruments, has given carol singing a healthy
boost. In most homes, at least one member of the family can be depended on to provide Instrumental accompani
ment for carols — and the Instrument may vary from the old favorite piano to the currently popular guitar.
Music in any form has long been especially beloved as a means of expressing Christmas joy. Early Christian
believers were forced to worship in secret — and therefore, quietly. Then, in the fifth and .sixth centuries,
Christianity came out of the catacombs — and exultation for freedom of worship was expre.ssed in the glad ringing
of church bells.Early hymns and carols, however, were in Latin. Carol
singing in Us modern form — in the common language of the country — probably originated in 1223, when St. Francis Introduced the Ilrst realistic replica of the manger scene. In the little town of Greccio, Italy.Prom this beginning, the practice of erecting a creche or crib soon became a Christmas
tradition in many towns. Around the representation of tlie first Christmas, villagers gathered to marvel, pray and sing. Often, the creche was constructed in a churchyard or on a public street. Thus it was natural for the worshippers to stroll away from the
devotional service — formal or Informal — and continue singing the beloved carols as
they made their way home. 'This spontaneous action may well have led to the custom of going from place to place lo sing carols. And Ihe more music, the belter, was the rule. Any musical instrument, however humble, was a welcome addition and accompaniment.
In later centuries, the “wassailing” or “gooding” expeditions helped the growth of caroling. Singers went from house to house, receiving treats as rewards for carols.
Even oppression could not put an end to carol singing. When the Puritans abolished Christmas observances in England, printed sheets of carols were bootlegged for a penny.
And poets and musicians went right on composing carols, as they do today.

corresponding occupation.
Sometimes, he associates Ihe
cue with the figure by using his imagination - “ the farmer is In the boat because he wants to
sail away." But usually, he
replies correctly - “the sailor
goes on a boat."Joey is asked to remember as
many of the figures as he can
and then is taken back to his
school room.The purposes of this research project are two-fold: (1) lo
determine the age al which
children first show signs of
being planful during their initial encounters with a memory
task; (2) to determine the
degree to which initial plan-
fulness does facilitate retrieval
of information during subsequent recall.The increased success Joey
had the second time around
when he had the cues on the boxes to guide him in his placement and recall tend to
support the second goal. But
Joey is only one child and with
all the variables in a project of
this nature, a great many children must be tested to ob
tain reliable information
concerning memory skills. In
addition to the UNC-G children,
a great many children in the
Greensboro City Schools are being tested, with parental
permission. Analyzation of the
data should be complete by
sometime in April.
The researchers expect Ihai
the subjects who use the cues during the hiding phase of the
game also will use the cues to
aid their memory during the
recall phase and consequently siiow higli levels of success.The developmental level of
the child is a most important
factor, said Dr. Geis. She noted
that older children will make up
stores to relate a figure with a cue that is completely unrelated and will then remember where
they put that figure, Younger
children do not do this spontaneously.The field of memory and how
human beings can best train
themselves to “remember" is
one in whicli a great deal of
research is being done currently.
Among the more immediate
results in the memory training
of youngsters might be in teaching the children to associate their belongings with
a proper place for them, such as
putting toys in toy boxes and not
on the floor and mittens in
pockets and not outside. Undoubtedly, mothers would be
the greatest benefactors in such
memory task performances.

BERRIES
North Carolina has
about 3000 acres of strawberries that yield an esti
mated 6,000 pints per acre.
A good tree is an excellent investment in the
landscape, although it no longer is always an inex
pensive investment.
Because it is long-term
and very likely expensive, it’s best to do the job right
on the first attempt.
North Carolina State
University extension horticulturists suggest that the hole in which a tree
is planted is often the source of trouble. Specifically, holes that are too
small to 'accommodate the root system will result in
crowded roots.
If the roots of a young
tree are crowded, they are likely to girdle the tree. This can create favorable
conditions for the onset of diseases and insects and result in the death of
the plant.
If a tree planted a few seasons ago isn’t doing
well, it’s a good idea to
check the roots. A tree normally has buttress roots that flare at ground
level. If the trunk goes straight down into the
ground or if there are indentions in the trunk at
soil level, chances are there is a root girdling
the tree.Dig around the base of the tree to expose the
troublesome root and remove it by cutting with a chisel. Make a clean cut
and paint the exposed area with a tree wound compound.
The tree may not respond immediately, but eventually it should begin
to do better. At least, further dying of branches
that haven’t been receiv
ing sufficient water and nutrients will be pre
vented.

lOB - DAVII- COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, REGULAR ISSUE. DECEMBER 26. 1974 - PRINTED, DECI-MntR : i, 1974
Handicapped Hit
Hardest By Inflation
“During inflatiiin the hnn-
dioappcd are hit hardest. If the job market is tight, the handicapped generally have it
tougher to find employment."
said Terry Kemp, development
coordinator of communicative disorders and disabled disad
vantaged, N. C. Division of
Vocational Kehabilitatinn,
"As employment of the
general population, employment of the handicapped varies with the economy and
location," Kemp continued.
“But, the effccts of the p|resent
inflation crunch come first to
those who are handicapped."There are several reasons why the handicapped suffer
most.-During economic crises,
employers favor the normal
functioning person.
-The cost of living for handicapped people is more than the average person. For
example, they have more
medical and transportation
bills.-Many handicapped people
are on a fixed income, such as
social security disability in
surance payments. When in
flation rises, their money does
not go as far and is usually not
increased.-The handicapped rely a
great deal on community
services, because a majority
have low-income jobs or are unemployed.Inflation brings a cut-back or
stabilization of these services.
Again, the handicapped get the
consequences of the nation's
economic situation.Through the efforts of such,
agencies as the N. C. Division of
Vocational Rehabilitation and
special educational institutions
in the state, there are many
educated, vocationally trained
and capable handicapped
p<-oplc. They are ready for
employment and to help
themselves fight inflation.However, some potential
employers have misconceptions
about hiring the handicappod.
They believe they will be limited by union regulations,
state laws and especially in
surance.
According to Kemp, they should know this:
(1) Insurance rates of the
employer who hires the han
dicappod usually will not be
increased. Insurance rates are
based on accident rates.(2) The accident record of the handicapped is not higher. It is
as least comparable or
sometimes less than that of nonhandicapped persons.(3) When a handicapped
person has lost use of one
capability he makes better use
of other capabilities.
Sometimes these become more adept than that of the average person.
If more employers were at
tuned to the capabilities of the
handicapped, it would mean a great deal in broadening the
employment horizons for them.
Those who have not hired the
handicapped should consider
that employers who have them on their payroll rale them higher than co-workers in
safety, job stability and
productivity.
This fact is proven by a recent
study done by the Governor’s
Council on the Employment of
the Handicapped that showed N. C. state government employs
nearly 2,000 handicapped
persons.
Handicapped people don’t
want special treatment. But
they do expect equal con
sideration if they are qualified
to fill a job opening. This way they will have an equal op
portunity to survive inflation.

Sen.Ervin Rejoices At Going Hoi
O Christmas
Tree!

In his last ncwslpltcr to the people of North Carolina
released last week, retiring Sen.
Sam J. Ervin Jr. said that he
rcjoiced "in the fact Ihfli I am going home to Morganton,"“ One year ago today I
decided that I should not seek
rc-cleclion." Ervin said. “I did
so in .spite of the fact that I believe that as chairman of the
Senate Committee on Govern
ment Operations, as ranking
member of the Senate Judiciary and Senate Armed Services
committees, and as chairman of
several subcommittees of the
Judiciary Committee, I could
have served the people for a short period of time more effectively than at any time in the
past simply because of my
experience."
“At the same time, I was
mindful of the story of the Eastern potentate who offered a
reward to anyone who could
make a statement which would
be true under all circumstances. The winner of the reward stated with simplicity
and truth: "This too shall come
to pass away.”
Ervin said that he concluded
that it would not be fair to the
people of North Carolina if he asked them to re-elect him "to
the Senate to a term of office
that would not expire until I was
more than 84 years of age.” So.
Ervin decided “to step down
and let a younger man take my
place."
Ervin said he was greatly
pleased that one of the bills he , introduced in the Senate last
year was passed as the Budget '
and Impoundment Control Act.
He said the act has been hailed
by many people as one of the
most important pieces of
legislation in history.The act is important, Ervin
said, "because it is the first,
time in history that we have set
up the machinery by which
Congress will be kept conscious'
throughout the session of what
resources it has to appropriate
and what resources it has appropriated and is ap
propriating."“There is no reason after a
short period of time,” Ervin
continued, ‘‘that we cannot
balance the budget and insist that the United States pay its
way as it goes along; that is
something it should have been
doing for a long time as a
matter of sound fiscal policy.” -
Krvin said he is grateful to the
North Carolina people for IK-rmitting him to serve in the
Senate longer than any North
Carolinian, except .Sens, Fur-
nifold M. Simmons. Lee S. Overman and Malt W. Ransom."I have run eight times in
primaries as well as general
elections for the statewide offices of associate justice of the Supreme Court of North
Carolina and United States
senator." Ervin said.
"On each occasion my friends
have looked after my campaign and I never had to solicit a
single contribution or organize a statewide campaign
organization. Those wl
factors which I believe enatf
me to servo what I alwl IhoughI were the be.sl inlct^
of all of the people of So
Carolina." Ervin said.
Ervin said it was co|
paralively easy to rep North Carolina as far as ideological views are cd
ccrned, "1 believe that t|
(K'curred because 1 was horn
North Carolina and many of i
(x-ople had roots in our stj
antedating the Americ Revolution, I was educated! North Carolina, and it
always been a joy for me tol
associated with North Caroll people,"
