08-August-Mocksville EnterpriseVOLUME XXXII •AU The County News For Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1949 “All The County News For Everybody”No. 20 LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ON THE ISSUE OF LEGAL SALE OF BEER AND WINE To The Editor: I am going to vote against the sale of wine and beer in Davie county on Saturday, September 3, because— 1. 1 believe it is better to save children than to save taxes. 2. It is a neusance and a tempt er to the younger class. 3. It is consumed by those who need to spend their money on oth er needs, R. PAUL FOSTER To The Editor: The people of Davie county are to decide on September 3 whether they wish to continue the legal sale of beer and wine. I write as a voter in Davie county to take my stand against beer and wine. Only evil results from tbe sale of such beverages. .To say that beer and wine are harmless and not intoxicating is to ignore the ob vious lesiats. The oaily reason for the legal sale of beer and wine is the prof it motive. The idea that the tax from sale of beer and wine brings large revenue into our county is fictitious. The legal officers re quired to arrest and lock up chronic drinliers and other ex pense involved far outweighs any revenue. As for the profit motive, any mcoey i m 1 | ^ ftrom this soim^ to ,at the Hxpfose o(f;jfte d e s m i l i l * - * the bceekiai up o( bemss, tbe niin of lives which might otherwise be useful, and increasing the danger of accident and death on our high ways. No matter how great the income in dollars it can never bal ance the loss in human values. I shall vote against the sale of beer and wine in our county. E. H. GARTRELL, Jr. To Thé Editor: The following article as repro duced Monroe Enquirer is Mbnitlad to the Mocksville Enterprise for publication, a is a sUtement by Rev. Jack T. Akin, Pastor of the »rst Baptist Church of Monroe, N. C., voicing an ob jection to the Allied Church League. The complete article follows below: M D n n B B V O K M OBJECTION TO AIXIED CaVBCB LEAOVB Monday afternoon at 4 o’clock 1 attended, along with other minis ters of Union County, a meeting in which L. A. Martin, head of the Allied Church League of North Carolina, and who had been in vited to this county by a «roup of ministers interested in doing something about the evils of alco hol, was present. In the process of organizing a county unit of the Allied Church League, Mr. Martin made a statement which, I think, would be corroborated by all present, that the League was “non-poUtical." For your benefit as a citizen who has the spiritual well-being of Union County at heart and who is dependent upon leader ship to enable you to express your opinion concerning spiritual matt ers, here are some remarks, ob jectified as far as I am capable of making them objective, for your consideration. I believe that Mr. Martin and the ministers present at that meeting are perfectly sincere in their convictions. They are all God-fearing souls and they are correct in seeing the evils in our modern civilization. The great- (Contiaued ea Page 4) A FRANK STATEMENT TO THE TAXPAYERS OF DAVIE COUNTY When our colonial forefathers, many of whom had fled to this country to escape the persecu tions of priest-ridden ^dynasties in Europe, founded the govern ment of the United States of America, they meticuluously and with infinite wisdom provided for the complete separation of church and state. The Constitu tion of the United States, the su preme law of the land upon which all Americans must rely for pro tection of their personal and property rights, clearly recogniz es and insures the prerogative o| each individual to “worship God according to the dictates of his or her own comcience,” free from governmental control, regulation or subsidy. As a consequence, tbere are today in the United Slate« almost u many religious sects ot differing creeds and doc trines as there are courthouses and jails. For illustration, just try to enumerate the subdivisions of the Baptist denomination! In adopting the Feoeral Con stitution our forefathers perform ed a function that was intrinsi cally and essentially political, in sense and in form. After cement ing the several States into a sol id aad com fact iiaton, and liniit! ing the authoiri^ of tbe Ccmgren to legislate only as to those mat' ters and things directly related to the national government it self, or to those affected by in ternational or interstate com merce, the founding fathers left to each individual state the pow er and authority to regulate its own internal affairs imder its po lice powers. Thus, this great and powerful government of the Unit ed States was established upon the hypothesis that all matters political must be left to the con trol of the Sta^ without inter ference or dictation on the part of the church, and all matters re ligious must be left to regulation by the church, without interfer ence or dicUtion by the state. One of the primary duties of the state is the raising of suffi cient revenue to pay for the cost of government and to finance iU numerous public institutions and facilities. This revenue rightful ly can come only from a uniform system of public taxation. The primary function of the church should be, through its clergy and members, to reach the hearts and minds of mankind by means of precept and example, to the end that the world, as we know it, may be made a better place in which to live. The church em ploys no system of taxation. Its revenues are derived solely from voluntary contributions. Verily, assessments are sometimes levied but they are not supported by enforcement measures. The state could not exist if the revenues were collected in this manner. The State of North Carolina, acting through its General As sembly, in order to furnish its citizens a sound and capable gov ernment, and to provide for their common welfare, has erected a tax structure based upon a bud get that anticipates revenues from many sources, chief among which are sales, inheritances, gasoline, corporations, incomes, franchises, privileges, amusements and alco holic beverages.

The Fork girls’ team put on an hitting rally in the seventh inning to come from behind and defeat Maine 16 io 15. The second game was a tight pitching duel between Kovacs of tho Thomasville team and Emer son of Heritage. Kovacs limited the Heritage team to five hits and onè run, while his mates collect ed three home runs to win the game 3 to 1. The National Guard arid Coo leemee game was rained out in the second inning with Cooleemee leading. * BROCK ELECTED TO C o u n t y C o HEAD DAVIE DRYS B. C. Brock, Mocksville attor ney, was elected general chair man of the Davie Drys at the meeting held in the county court house last Sunday night. Dr. R. P. Anderson, Mocksville dentist, was elected secretary-treasurer. Attorney L. A. Martin, w^ll known dry leader of Davidson county and formerly connected with the Allied Church league, was the principal speaker. Mr. Martin told his audience, numbering around 200, that he came to Mocksville as an "in sider," not an “outsider.” He ex plained that the question of al coholic beverages in any one lo cality concerns all the citizens of the State. ” “I thought we had done away with it when we voted for prohi- biUon in 1908. I didn’t think we would be bothered with it again.” But, he said, “You áre here to night because of that dastardly act of 1935." Mr. Martin termed the act “un holy—all but a crime.’’ He placed special emphasis on his allegation that plans for the passage of the act were formed “after midnight.” Mr. Martin declared that Row an county acted "disgracefully” when it voted in ABC stores in the Saturday election. He maintained that the legal sale of alcoboUc beverages is not iavolvéd witti the «iwUoa ot i«V' eaue. In coaaectioa with this, he said, “we are all ia the liquor business . . . we are selling our souls for silver and gold.” Mr. Martin asserted that pro hibition can be enforced. The only reason it hasn’t been, he said, is because “it has never been tried.” Rev. J. P. Davis, president of the Davie Ministerial association, presided over the meeting. Dr. H. C. Sprinkle introduced Mr. Martin. Another rally was announced for August 4 at the Cooleemee High school. The speaker at that ttone will be Dr. 1. G. Greer of Chapel Hill, toroierly superin tendent of the Baptist oriduuwge in Thomasvilll.

KENNETH GOODSON SPEAKS BEFORE LOCAL ROTARY CLUB Rev. Kenneth Goodson, minis- what they are to do with their ter of the First Methodist church in High Point and himself a Ro tarian, spoke to the local Rotary club at their Tuesday meeting on the community service lane of Rotary. Mr. Goodson was humorous and thoroughly entertaining as he de scribed the four lanes of Rotary, Club Service, descrltied by Mr. Goodson as a committee to pick members for the Rotary club. He was critical of what he termed "a closed corporation” practice that existed among many clubs. In many communities there are many men who could help the club, but are not asked. He urged the. inclusion of all possible worthy members that can be of help to the club, community and one another. Vocational Service: Here he crjticized the practice of the youth committee of many clubs that considered their only func tion as donating money for a boy or girl to attend summer camps. He urged that the club go much further than this and afford youth some vocational guidance as to lives. He emphasized the love of job, and the belief in the dignity of honest work, as the two most important traits for a successful man. Comniunity Service; Of thi^ Mr. Goodson said the affirmative answer to two questions would reveal the worth of a Rotary club to a community. (1) Do individ uals mean more to the community because they are members of the Rotary Club? (2) Is the commu nity any better because of the Rotary Club? Mr. Goodson stated that a Ro tary club had a lot to give a com munity, and urged that they do their part in keeping this coun try on its foundation. J. K. Sheek had charge of the program, but was forced to be away because of business reasons. R. M. Hardee, a personal friend of Mr. Goodson, introduced the speaker. Henry Ridenhour, formerly of Cooleemee, and the present dean ot men at High Point college, was a special guest of the Rotary.. Judge J. A. Rousseau of North Wilkesboro will be the presiding judge for the August term of Da vie Superiorxourt which will con vene Monday, August 29.

Tax RevaluatiiMi Seen As Benefit to County and Town The commissioners of Davie county admitted Mooday of this week that the present property valuation in Davie county existed on an unfair bask and that they recognized there are gross ine qualities in the property values listed on the tax books of the county. R. P. Martin, chairman of the county commisisotiers and spokes man for the group, announced that the board of commisioners were cognizant of the inequaU* ties of the present valuaUon and that they were unanimously fa vorable to a revaluation of prop erty for Davie county as soon as possible. Clarence Carter and J. M. Groce, the other two conunk- sioners, concurred verbally with this statement. The above statement was made at the regular meeting ot tho county commisisoners on Monday after a dekgation ot the govern ing offkiak o l tha Town ot MocksviUe aad rsprsw taU vsi ol Um local Jaaiir .CkM iber oC Com merce appeeiei betoew t ^ I anil requested i e « ‘'a:'fl HOMECOMING There will be a homecoming and revival Sunday, August 14, at Advance Baptist church.

Mocksville is cur rently in fifth place and is mak ing a desperate bid to overtake Spencer and land a place in the playoffs. CEMETEBY CLEANING All persons interested in clean ing the Chestnut Grove Church cemetery are asked to meet there Saturday morning, August 6. M. H. Murray, chairmafi of the conunittee for the town officials^ offered the request of the dele gation stating that Mayor John E. Durham and the other aldermen, after a thorough study of the tax able property values of the town and noting the inequalities, went on record favoring the revalua tion of property and to come be fore the county IxMrd of conmiis- sioners, the proper authoriUes, to make known thk request. It was pointed out that the town could not Kvalue ito property, but must accept the valuation that k pkced on the county books. Mr. Murray said: “It k Uie OFs who ara paying the present taxes. The young men who are attempt ing to get a start aad get ahead. Those who were tigbtiac for our righte white w e wera here at home. These are tho oaes these unequal valuations ara penalising, forcing them to pay, in some cas es, twice the taxes on property half the value, than that ot their neighbors. Tiie town of Mocks ville wante to do something about it but can't, because the power of ravaluation rests with the county commissioners. fTherefore, we come before you gentlemen to ask for the revaluation of- property for Davie county, at a fair and equal value to all the people.” Mr. Murray announced that he did not blame any man or busi ness for paying as little tax as possible, but that the records would back up any r^uest for revaluation through the inequali ties. Examples wefe cited of busi ness property on the square, one piece of property that included a large twt) story building with sev eral offices, apartments, etc., plus an additional building, all being listed on the tax books for $8,640. While immediately across the street from it was a new one- story building occupying less than one-third of the space as the oth er, was listed on the books for fll,SOO.

(InltnieHeiiel) Poultry Suggestions For August, 1949 Artificial shade should be pro vided for the pullets on range, if natural shade is not available. Brush arbors will make a satis* factory shade and wil! be inex pensive. Temporary shade can also be provided by constructing a low, moveable stand covered with sheet tin, tarpaper, or other build ing materials. Remember that plenty of cool, clean, drinking water is import ant to the pullets. Where running water is not provided, the foun tains seem to get empty rather quickly in hot weather. Some form of shade should be provided over the fountains to help keep the water cool. The feed should be protected from the rain and sun. Feed exposed to the sun will soon loose a lot of vitamins. Wet feed soon molds, and moldy feed should never be fed to chickens of any age. Have the range shelters been moved lately? It might pay in several ways to move them to a new location After the shelters arc moved, the droppings should be removed nnd hydrated lime spread over the old location. Better use will be made of the green feed on the range, if the shelters are moved from time to iime. If the pullets have not been vaccinated for chicken pox, they should before they are 16 .weeks old. The best time to vaccinate is between the ages bf 8 and 14 weeks. Vaccination is good in surance against loss in egg pro duction. Use fresh vaccine and vaccinate all of the young birds at one time. Heat and dryness will lower the interior quality of an egg rather quickly. Preserve the high qual ity and fresh flavor by gathering often, cooling quickly and leav ing the eggs in wire baskets or on cooling racks overnight in a cellar, basement, or insulated room. The egg room should be cool, moist, and well ventilated. Onions, fish kerosene, and potatoes should not be stored in the egg room, as the odors from these products will be absorbed by the eggs. Of couse these odors will spoil the flavor of the eggs, thereby, making them undesirable and in a lot of cases inedible. In order to assure Fresh Quality Eggs, sell them at least once a week.

C., to inquire about the possibility of benefit payments for herself and her three small children as the widow of a d e -' :eased wage earner. She said she had seen an article in a news- j paper stating that widows and children sometimes received pay ments. and since she had found a Social Security Card with her husband’s name on it she decid ed to see whether he had any credits which would entitle her and the children to payments. Upon obtaining the record of wages reported for the deceased wage earner, the field office dis covered that he had worked long enough for the family to receive monthly payments, but since he had died in January 1949 the wid ow and children had lost three months payments due to failure to file a claim within three months after the month in which her husband died. These lost benefit payments could not be obtained due to the fact that the law does not permit back payments of more than three months prior to the month the claim is filed. It was pointed out by Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager of the Win- ston-Salem field office that there are two times for action to pre vent loss of benefits. First, wage earners should inquire about their rights at age 65, and second, sur viving relatives of deceased wage earners should inquire as soon as possible after’ death. This applies alsojn the case of veter ans of World War II who die within three years after honor able discharge. “The best advice w c can give residents of the counties served by the Winston-Salem field of fice,” Mrs. Duffy states, “is to in quire in every case where there has been employment by the per son concerned, either a wage earner at age 65, or in the case of deceased workers, as soon as possible after death. Even where no Social Security Card can be found, this inquiry should be made if the person concerned has been employed since the law be came effective on January 1, 1937.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 5,1949 Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 IT IS THE DAY For the 69th time all MocksviUe and Davie County are extending the glad hand and a hearty welcome to all to attend the Masonic Picnic. This of course is the greatest day in the year for Davie County. It is the day all come back home for a little chat with old acquaintances, rela tives and friends. A day that everyone seems to be think ing about someone else. A day when our hearts are turned to those less fortunate than ourselves— to the motherless and the fatherless— to those that make our hearts beat with jay. while enjoying one of their excellent concerts. It is also a day of eniightment along many different lines. The day when we have the opportunity to hear great men talk about great things. Judge Hubert E. Olive will deliver the principal address next Thursday. He halls from our neighboring town of Lexington annd is reco^ized as one of the most able men of North Carolina. His address is sure to go down in the history of the Masonic Picnic as one of the best alongside such notables of the past as W. Kerr Scott, Senator Clyde R. Hoey, Secretary of the Army Gordon Gray, etc., who have in the past graced the platform on the second Thursday in August. It is the day that brings the world’s best cooks under one roof. There under the dinner arlwr is spread the most bountiful table o f food anyone has ever beheld. Here one may eat all he likes, of whatever he likes, and there is a great variety of choice fried chicken, ham, sandwiches, cake, pie. etc., all prepared and spread by the women of Davie County as their contribution to a great day and a great cause. It is the day anticipated with uncontrolled eagerness by all children. It is their day. The merry-go-round, ferris wheel, and the numerous other rides and side shows run unceasingly for their pleasure. Here and there you will also see older persons joining in the fun on the mid way. It is a great day for all. It Is the day that raises money for the Masonic Orphan age at Oxford, N. C. Slxty-eigh of such days in the past raised over $104,000 total for the orphanage. Every cent of profit derived from this day of enjoyment goes to this worthy institution. Yes, Louisville may have It’s Kentucky Derby; New Orleans may have Its Mardl-Oras; but each year the second Thursday in August becomes the greatest day for this section of North Carolina. The Masonic Picnic . . . it is THE DAY. MOBE ABOUT Revaluation of Property admitted owning two houses more here in Mocksville than the tax books showed. Examples were cited where sev eral homes, built in recent years. Each were on the tax books for more than an entire block of busi ness property o nthe square. S. M. Call, clerk of the town of Mocksville, stated that he was present at the last revaluation of property in 1919. And that it was amusing the way it was ac- cciiiplished. He said no account whatsoever was given to the ac tual valuation of the property, but rather the valuers went down the tax list alphabetically and placed the valuation according to' the owner’s ability to pay and that this valuation, placed then, had 5elf during the first year. And that it would allow both the coun ty and the town to lower their iax rates. At the close of the meeting the commisioners ^re-affirmed their stand in favor of the revaluation and stated that they had already begun work .towards that end. The town of Mocksville was represented by Mayor John E. Durham, T. J. Caudell, Ben Boyles,, R. B. Sanford, Jr., J. C. Little, M. H. Murray and S. M. Call, town clerk. The Jaycees were represented by President D. J. Mando, J. K. Sheek, Jr., J. A. Craven, W. A. Murray, and C. G. Tomlinson.

Christen dom is at one with itself in this just these tax inequalities and to belief. Even Catholicism and put additional real and personal Pi-otestantism join hands at this property on the books. D. J. Mando, spokesman for tho juncture though they greatly differ in some of their methods Jaycees, asked the commissioners of accomplishing their tasks, for a definite commitment as to' We find ourselves living at a when the revaluation would take time when separation ot church place. Chairiilan Martin stated and state is a keen issue. The re- that they could not definitely set cent decision of the Supreme Klan, the Labor Unions, the Dem it driven down his throat wheth er or no. The S u p r^ e Court’s decision may be more scriptural than we suspect. A democracy is such because it recognizes the rights of individuals to believe or not believe, to be Chirstian or atheist. Those rights must ever exist not only that we may con tinue to be Christian in the real sense of the word. For Christ built his kingdom around the free choices of the people. There was no pressure exerted at any point or time to get people to accept his way. There were no campaigns conducted in and other manner except the presenting of facts and allowing decisions to be made accordingly. Now come back to the state ment of the Allied Church league that it is non-political. How can that be when the purpose of the meeting was to effect an organi zation to call for a referendum in both county and State on the al cohol situation? How can it call itself non-political when its goal is not only the calling for an elec tion, but also that of influencing the people’s votes by telling them that no Christian will vote any other way except its way. The Allied Church league in this case is posing as God. It tells the peo ple that a vote should be taken and that they should vote a cer tain way lo be Christian. Tiiut is an air-tight selfishness. That leaves no way except theirs. That leaves no choice for the citizen to make without subjecting himself to the unmerciful propaganda which the league .will use to car ry its point. The league further proposes to write to the prospective candi date to ascertain his stand on the matter. If the candidate answers negatively the league casts its in fluence against him. If he does not answer (which he wouldn't have to do if he so chose) then by common consent they might brand him a wet or nun-Christian. Is that refraining from politics? At the meeting nearly every one was a minister. A minister was elected to head the organi zation if he accepts. The minis ter should be expected to stand for all that is high and holy in his church and community. Ho does represent Christ as far as a human being can be expected to represent liim. But the minister is not Christ. He can't speak with final authority since he is not God. His word is not final either in the pulpit or out; either in re ligion or politics. So, since he is not the final arbiter in matters, political or otherwise, and since his congregation is composed of thoughtful people, good people, who are divided not only on the solution to the liquor problem but also on politics in general, then it behooves him to be Very con siderate in his political views and championing aspirations. It seems to me a church might ask that its ministers be considerate and fair since its body is composed of va rying types of personalities with varying Christian experiences and insights. Can a minister speak for his congregation when he is not sure where the congregation stands in regard to political matters? And have not the saved people in the church a right to their views with out being severely criticized by their pastor? The matter of al cohol is a divided question. The fact that we have . it is proof enough for that statement. The Allied Church league represents only a segment of opinion and be lief. They right for what they be lieve is right. So do the Klu Klux MOBE ABOVT Frank Statement of these sources be destroyed dur ing 'the course of a fiscal year, the entire tax system would be crippled severely and appropria tions -of funds allocated to pub lic service would, from necessity, have to be curtailed drastically, or, possibly, discontinued entire ly. At this point it is rather sig nificant to observe that no tax is imposed on the church or any of its institutions, nor does the State require that clergymen pay the privilege tax that is demand ed annually of all practicing phy sicians, surgeons, dentists, law yers and active members of other professions, crafts or trade. The State, in its program to raise enough money to defray all costs of its administrative func tions, permits the sale of liquor, beer and wine under the super vision and control of a commis sion created especially for that purpose and levies a tax thereon that makes a very substantial contribution to its biennial ap propriations. With respect to sales of beer and wine, a part of the revenue received therefrom is turned back to the counties, cities and towns from which it was col lected, thereby enabling the gov erning bodies of these municipal ities to reduce their “ad valorem" rates against tangible property. But no portion of this revenue is available to counties, cities and towns that have placed a ban on the sale of beer and wine. The sale of alcoholic beverages in North Carolina under strict supervision and control of a re liable State agency, and the col lection of revenues therefrom are purely and inherently political matters that are inextricably tied the exact time, but that they were Court, to protect the citizens ot in favor of a revaluation and our nation who are atheists that it would take place as soon against the exposure to Christian as possible. | teachin« in the public schools, J. K. Slieek, Jr., a member of may have long and lasting results the Jaycee delegation, asked if in our society. We are coming anything stood in the way of re- nearer and nearer the point when valuation. To this Mr. Martin re- it would seem that the govern- plied. N o.' ment must be the arbiter between Mayor John Durham stated .vho will have Christianity as a that he believed that the revalu- ’ matter of choice or who will be ation would more than pay for it- subjected to the process ot having ocratic. Republican and Socialist parties. They should fight, no doubt, but neither must destroy the rest. When the church enters politics it is apt to say you fight against God when you fight against rp.e. And a minister may say you are not Christian when you vote con trary to his wish. But that is not so bad as it first sounds, for na tions have had to fight to free themselves of the church and its clutches. Protestants or Catholic.^, though they would use difteront methods to accomplish their pur pose, would cast a similar burden of so called righteous reign upon people it they were in power. Better perhaps that religiou.-; lead ers, Protestant and Catholic, hands off the reigns ot govern ment, at least until they brinji on the horizon religious leaders who are not mal-adjusted and dictatorial in their methods and beliefs. And if they don’t hands oft, perhaps the Supreme Court may hand down a decision some day that will forbid preaching except to those who want to hear it, and forbid the minister from making any derogatory remark in general about either government or politics. For by the same logic that a man can be an atheist, if he wants to, and demand protec tion from religious indoctrination, he can also drink if he wants to and demand a place from which he may purchase alcohol. I am not justifying liquor nor recom mending it. I am talking about freedom to drink and freedom to worship. The two references may appear miles apart but both are permitted by the same I'overn- ment. What can stop one can stop the other. Wouldn’t it be ridiculous if Christian people suc ceeded in stopping the lover of drink from drinking only to find the lover of drink fighting to stop the Christian from worshiping? The church should protect its fu ture effectiveness by spiritually and wisely using its influence now. Let church leaders who en ter into open and flagrant com bat in politics carefully count the cost tor future generations. The Constitution of the United States, like the Bible, will always be interpreted. The interpretation will follow historical precedents plus modern public opinion. Therefore, the samé freedom that permits Christian leaders to cam paign against alcohol can also per mit advocates of alcohol to cam- pign against the Christian church. The issue involves a lot more than was anticipated at that meeting. Respectfully yours, CITIZENS CONTROL COM MITTE OF DAVIE COUNTY. in with the tax structure of the State. In no wise do they affect the right of any person to wor ship God according to the dictates of his or her..own conscience. Nor does the existing system to any degree molest any group of indi viduals in the “free exercise" of their religious convictions. The entire system fits clearly and neatly within the taxing pow er of the State and is enforceable under the State’s police powers. No religious question is involv ed in the proposition to regulate and control the sale of a com modity that is generally regarded as harmful but is used to some extent by a majority of the Am er ican people in all walks of life; a commodity that is frequently prescribed by reputable doctors and physicians in their treatment of disease and used by a vast number of churches in adminis tering the Holy Sacrament! In the hectic and by-gone days of national prohibition the man ufacture, sale, or even possession, of alcoholic beverages involved the subject of moral turpitude. To make, sell or possess the con traband was made a crime by con stitutional amendment and any person violating the prohibition law in some of its aspects became a felon. But with the .idoption of the 21st amendment to the Federal Constitution, which nul lified tho vicious and unenforce able Volstead Act, after 12 long years of vain and futile experi mentation, the moral element was removed. It is now no longer unlawful or immoral to' sell or possess alcoholic beverages any where in the United States, ex cept in those narrowly limited areas that are controled by local measures, and in most ot these districts restrictions are limited to the manufacture and sale of liquor. During the last session of the North Carolina General Assem bly, senators and representatives were harassed and annoyed by lobbyists seeking to hamper and cripple the tax structure of the State by abolishing the existing system of regulation and control of alcoholic beverage sales and returning to the wild, reckless, unbridled days of the prohibition era when “bootleg" liquor flowed unchecked and uncontrolled in every county ot the State. And who was in the van'of this vast army of lobbyists? The Allied Church League! Not contented to remain at their posts of duty and administer to the spiritual needs of those persons under their charges, tax-exempt clergy men by the hundreds abandoned their normal occupations and mi grated to Raleigh in droves to place the influence of the tax-free church, under the guise of re ligion, behind a political move to wipe out millions of dollars of revenue and force upon the other citizens of the State the burden of paying increased tax assess ments. An intelligent, sensible and thoughtful group of legisla tors listened respecttuly and pa tiently to this host of .lobbyists and then promptly and properly answered its arguments with a definite and stern refusal to dis turb a fixed policy of the State. And then what happened? The local Ministerial association, rep resenting several religious denom inations, busied itself with the subject of legal sales of beer and wine in Davie couny and resolv ed to jnauguurate a campaign to outlaw the same by calling for a special county wide election. Pe titions v.iere broadly circulated by at least two clergymen asking that such special election be called. The influence of the church was exercised widely in the distribution of these petitions for signatures, and, as a result, a special election has now been ordered that will cost the taxpay ers of the county some $12,000.00! On September 3, 1949, the tax payers of Davie county, at the instigation and behest of a few local clergymen, will be asked to surrender a sizeable slice of their municipal Incomes by “voting out” the legal sale of beer and wine. Last year Davie county receiv ed approximately $12,00.00 in re funds on taxes collected therein from sale of beer and wine and the city ot Mocksville, from the same source, received more than $1,400. This money was used by the governing bodies of the two units in holding their tax levies to the low levels now in effect. Mr. Taxpayer, how will you vote? Two tax-exempt clergy men of Mocksville who occupy tax-free homes have already ex pressed their views in the col umns of The Enterprise and have announced publicly their inten tions to vote against the legal sale of beer and wine. Does't this mean, in effect, that they intend to vote FOR the ILLEGAL sale of the two commodities? Davie is bounded by five coun ties, each of which permits the sale of beer and wine. Should Davie vote “dry” (as now seems probable, unless thoughtful citi zens bestir themselves and vote to the contrary) beer and wine will be easily obtainable from any one of our neighboring counties in retail or wholesale quantities. “Bootlegging" of beer will become another local racket that will cast an insuperable burden on local enforcement officers'and the rev enue now being collected from the State will be cut off and dis tributed among the border coun ties. Not only that. Beer will be sold illegally in Davie county indiscriminately through bootleg channels to teen-age boys and girls, drunks and others at all hours of the day and night, on week days and Sundays alike, at an «nnual loss to the taxpayers ot the county of some $14,000 in cash. Public morals will be shame fully lowered by converting hun dreds of normally law-abiding consumers of beer into virtual of fenders against the law. ’This statement is not to be con. strued as an attack on the church itself, butu it does intend to point to the conspicuous and unbecom ing behavior of those of its clergy who have deliberately fomented a, purely political controversy among our citizens, have stirred up ill-will, animosity, strife and discord among them and have dragged the church into a politi cal arena in violation of the spirit ot the Constitution of the United States of America. The church, potentially, is the most effective agency known to man for the promotion of “Peace on Earth, Good W ill to Men,” and for the advancement of Human ethic.s .md the orderly progress of social relations. -No rational person would prefer to live in a community devoid of church in fluence. But unhappily and de plorably, in reality some of our religious groups are less effective in improving the community life in our cities and towns than is an active, energetic and well-direct ed civic club; and all of this be cause of the unwarranted politi cal tactics employed by some of their spokesmen. On Septmber 3, 1949, as thoughtful, self-respècting tax payers, unmoved by maudlin sen timent, but guided by reason and common sense, go to the polls and vote FOR REGULATION AND CONTROL of the sale of a poten tially harmful commodity, and AGAINST THE UNREGULAT ED, UNCÔNITROLLED, ILLEGAL SALE THEREOF.

Pasteur’s lesenrch proved thnt fermentation is produced only by yennt; thnt biologicnl changes nra due to micro-organisms. For prac tical brewing he patented a method fur controlling fermentation, and brewing advanced from a hit-or-miss practice to an esact- ing science. The French scientist’s discov eries meant more to mankind than merely standardising or improv ing the quality of a favoirite bev erage. For ha wrote in his book, “When « • aee beer and wine sub jected to deep alterations bccause they have given reftige to micro- organisaa invisibly introd need...

Atlits Smoot, present Master of the Mocksville Masonic lodge, has a great responsibility in pro moting the Masonic Picnic, a time-honored philanthropic in stitution which has done so much for the Oxford Orphanage over a period of 69 years. Mr. Smoot joined the local lodge December 8, 1944. Since! that time he has held important offices until he attained the chair of Master of the Lodge. During thc past years he has served on the Refreshment committee and this year in addition to his other responsibilities he is vice-chair man of that committee. Dr. R. P. ANDERSON Chairman Orphans Conunittee Rr. R. P. Anderson has been a member of the local Masonic Lodge for 47 years, joining in 1920. He has a record of various offices held in the local lodge at various times. Dr. Anderson has served as chairman of the Orphans Com mittee since 1903. It is the duty of this committee to look after the comforts or needs of the Singing Class of Oxford Orphanage, from the time they arrive in Mocksville until they depart. • Dr. Anderson reports that he and Mrs. Anderson in the early ^ y s personally cared for the entire Orphanage Class, teacher, manager and all, which in those days amounted to aboui a total of 16 people. These people usu ally came by train or hacl; and stayed overnight. Seven or eight trunks had to be handled to and from the railroad station. Im provements were continually made, and with the coming of the automobile, the task became somewhat easier. Dr. Anderson states that with the efficient ser vice of his fellow committee mem bers, and with the help of the other Masons and good people of the town, it has always been easy and a pleasure to find good homes where they are welcome. R P A Y ! VO A D V m n i . , O. O. DANIEL Chairman Refreshment Committee G. G. Daniel joined thc local Masonic Lodge in January 1920. During his 29 years as a member of the local Masonic Lodge, he has held the office of Sentinel and has served on the Refreshment Committee for the Annual Mason ic Picnic for the past 29 years. During the past three ycors he has served as chairman of this important committee. As chairman of thc Refresh ment Committee, it will be the responsibility of Mr. Daniel and his fellow committee members to supervise the‘ purchase, sale, and distribution of all the soft drinks, ice cream, and other refreshments tar thr Mth Aimwl-Maaonie Pic* nic. This committee is one of the largest, and the members do nate their time dispensing the refreshments on picnic day that goes so far making the picnic suh a success, both in enjoyment and financially. JACOB STEWART Chairman Program Committee Jacob Stewart, truly a master mason when it comes to planning Masonic Picnic programs, wears the badge of Masonary given its members when they have been a member for 50 years. Mr. Stew art joined the local lodge in 1889. From that time until 1917 he served as assistant program chair man, working with T. B. Bailey, chairman during that time. Since 1917 Mr. Stewart has assumed the responsibility of the program for the picnic. His duties are heavy for upon this committee depends the success of the planned pro gram for ’the day. It has been said by many that the program in 1947, the last picnic held, was the best picnic ever. Mr. Stewart has missed only one picnic since he joined the lodge and that was when he had legal business in Omaha, Nebraska, and E. P. Bradley served for him. He states that he looks forward to the picnics with more deep plea sure than any other event during the year. PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, AUGUST 5,1949 Se^Ufe. . .

The Sierra Club and the United States Forest Service decided that an appropriate way of cele brating the bicentennial of Jo hann Wolfgang von Goathe would be to give hia name to one of the highest unnamed peaks of the Sierra Nevada. Mt. Goethe is the highest peak of the Glacier Divide on the boundary of Sierra National For est and Kink» Canyon National Kirk, in nreuw County, Califor nia. Its height is given aa 13,277 feet on the Mt Goddard atlas sheet of the United States Geok>- gical Survey. KNOX JOHNSTONE Finance Committee ELEVATOR ASCENDS, DESCENDS THROUGH VOICE COMMANDS Elevator operators who have their ups and downs have been floored by a demonstration of a blingual lift that responds to verbal commands. It ascends or descends when requested to do so in either English or French. No handles, buttons, or other manual controls are required. A one-foot model of the lin guistic elevator was displayed and operated at the Building Owners and Managers Associa tion convention in the Mount Royal Hotel. It traveled between three “floors" in a 10-foot model hoistway. To cause the car to go up. th« operator called "going up” or “monter." “Down please" or “decendre” brought the ele vator down. Harry Welden of the West- inghouse Elevator Dit’ision of Jersey City, N. J., whose com pany built the model said Wost- inghousc does not plan to pro duce voice-controlled elevators. The model was built, he explained to demonstrate, the “uncanny alertness” engineers are incor porating into modern elevator controls. The Mocksville Masonic Picnic IS A CHARITABLE INSTITUTION DESERVING OF THE SUPPORT OF EVERYONE IN THIS AREA.

"0 ;.'o!l. So Mr. Lee wants no rain. He wants his wooden steeds at a full gallop for the Mocksville Masonic Picnic the week of August 8-13. The Iowan has had weather troubles. He’s been in the business for 45 years and he’s seen enough '.vet weather to last me three life ■.imes.’’ But Mr. Lee has seen sunny days—lot of them—since he bought his first merry-go-round .:n 1906. “I guess I could count on my fingers the losing weeks we’ve had," he said. We've been lucky. Of course, there’ve been some tough days. The first time I was ever in North Carolina, 1907, I had to borrow three dollars to buy coal to fire up the boiler of my merry-go-round. Sure one of those old cold-burning jobs. For the past 30 years Mr. Lee has been somewhat of a Summer' time Santa Claus for thousands of North Carolina youngsters. .Many of them don’t know who "that big nice man l.t," but they ride hundreds of miles astl'Jde his red, blue, green and yellow hobby horses. He works many of the same towns each year. They’iv always blad to see him return. He comes DAVE RANKIN Basket Committee to Mocksville each year during picnic week. “My show has never had any trouble,’’ he said, "w e don’t have any tent shows, gambling boards or wild animals—just rides. I guess we’re a pretty quiet crowd. Last spring Mr. Lee gave R. S. English 49 per cent of the stock. “ He’s been with me for 42 years— ever since he quit a bar ber shop in Hendersonville one night to join the show. He got soaking wet that night in a cloud burst but he was ready to move out the next morning. “ I hope he and his son, Johnny, will run the show when I retire —which won’t be long, you see." Why no wild animals in .the Lee business? “ Well, I made up my mind at the start we’d carry nothing WO had to feed—except employees." Canada began importinff hy brid corn seed from the United .States in 193)1. No one knows when coal was . . . - . lifirst used for fuel.

IJAMES ^ NEW GLAMOUR TOYS EXHIBITED Toys for 1949 give a vheerful holiday forecast tiiat sales will be comparable to the peak Christ mas season of last year, accord ing to Toy Guidance Council, Inc. The Toy Guidance Exhibit sponsored its third annual pre view (or the press, July 7. At lhat time' many new doll faces, triumphs in mechanical drollery, playthings that rival the best in ventions of the grown-up world —at the same time meetins stan dards of safety and general advis ability—were unvicled. Easily heading the list of glam our attractions for little girls was the doll with nylon liair. Tiie hair is beautiful and shiny and it takes a permanent. In fact this doll bears the name of a well-known firm special izing in homemade permanents. The ' wig is ■ fastened on with a special adhesive that will not weaken in water, a spokesman for the exhibit explained, and there is no undesirable cliemical to deter a six-year-old from safe ly giving her doll a fashionable wave. The electric train situation is definitely on the up-and-up. While pasengcr trains :;cuttle over the tracks to the sound of the station caller's "Philadelphia, Boston, New York," other sections of the lighted railroad yards are busy with coal cars, log loaders, locomotives, the storage elevator. A radio hat that enables its wearer to tune into any one of 12 real stations, a toy' chest on wheels that carries playthings to playgrounds, plastic construction sets, a tiny electric vacuum clean- cr, a wliitc fuzzy puppy that hops when wound up, and a loom that knits girl’s hoods when you turn the crank—these are some of 'the reason.«! why toy departments ex pect to be congested.

F. STONESTREET Politeness, a Hobby A friend who is an exceeding ly busy woman sat in the midst of a group of hobby-minded col lectors. When they asked what her hobby was, she laughlingly said, “I have a hobby, but I don’t have to collect anything, and it doesn't take up any space. 1 make politeness my hobby." When asked to explain, she told us that she had found her* self becoming careless of other people’s feelings, that she was un necessarily abrupt with her busi' ness associates, and that she often failed to give-some personal help which would have meant much to somebody. She saw other w o men running after the buttons and bows of other days, after pattern glass and highboys which their homes could barely hold. It occured to her that the art of being polite could be just as in teresting a hobby, so she set to work to mend her ways and really went after politeness the way the other women were going after antiques. The result is that she is a much happier person and has made many new friends simply by thinking about other people more. As a hobby, she recomm ends it even if you want to run after old furniture, too. ATTEND THE 69TH ANNUAL MASONIC PICNIC THURSDAY, AUGUST 11 For Top Price and Best Service BRING YOUR COTTON TO L P .

SELL Finance Committee ^ DUTCH HONOR MYTHICAL LAD The boy who put his hand in the dike is. finally going to get recognition from the Dutch. But it’s only to please the Americans. Every American school child knows the story of the courage ous youth of Haarlem who avert ed a flood that would have des troyed his town. He saw a small breach in the dike, stopped it with his hand, and stayed there all night before he was found. Every ^ American child knows the story . . . but no Dutch child does. For the legend seems to be an American invention. Every Hollander knows it couldn’t have happened that way. Breaks in dikes do not form in that manner, and once a dike is breached no one hand could stop it. American correspondents have often been asked by incredulous Dutch people whether this amaz ing tale actually is told in America. But now, with a straigh face, the Dutch national tourist agency has commissioned the sculptress, Grara Rueb, to fashion a statue commemorating thè imaginary lad. The Haarlem municipality has provided the site, along the dike between Haarlem and Spaarndam, where the monu ment will be erected in 1950. It is meant, an official said, as a gracious gesture to Americans and undoubtedly will attract tourists. A jewelry maker has come up with an idea which should prove a good fun-provoker as well as a versatile dress accessory. He has just introduced cuff links, tie clasps and shirt studs with stones that change color at the flick of a finger. Besides looking smart in them, a capricious wearer could send many a tippler to the water wagon or eye doctor by changing their colors between drinks. With other nten’a fashion novelties, they’re reviewed in the Dress Re hearsal columns of Cosmopoli tan magasine.

By using a device known as an electrinic po tentiometer to chart the electri cal impulses, the scientists have discovered that the trees react to stormsdays in advance of actual meteorological disturbances, a Brown Instrument Company en gineer disclosed. He said the complete parallel between oncoming storms and the trees’ electrical pattern was not yet luiown, but the electrical im pulses are believed to be caused by the reaction of cosmic rays on thé growth cell* of the trees.

FARTHING Pragram CoMmittee -----------------------Ï------------- R. M. HARDEE Program Coqamittee World Amity Dividend Paid By Foster Parent Project More than 600 “foster parents” are going overseas this year to see their children for the first time. They are part of a plan which started during the Spanish Civil War to help young war vic tims and is now realizing an im portant dividend — better inter national understanding. In 12 years, 60,000 children have been “adopted” through the Foster Parents Plan for War Chil dren. Through regular corre spondence with their American foster parents, their “love and gratitude . . . has reached across the seas to make the men, w o men, and children to the United States their friends,” says a spokesman for the plan. One Chinese boy wrote a de tailed letter about life in China lo his foster parents, a New York PTA group, then added; "I don’t know whether 1 have written something you would like to un derstand from'me. Please tell me.” A French boy blinded by a hand grenade wrote to his foster father, a blind American veteran: “I would be ever so pleased if you would tell me more about yourself and your life. 1 think we might get on well together. We have the same Lord, who means so much more than our blind ness.” The veteran—like many vet erans, according to the plan g|pokesman — was aware of the international relations aspect of the adoption. He not only wanted to help the child. “It may cause friendlier rela tions with the country the child is from,” he wrote, requesting membership in the plan. Of the 500,000 Americans con tributing to the plan, hundreds like this year's record 600 are not stopping with correspondence — they’re visiting their children overseas. One has gone as far as China. Every foster parent receives a photograph and case history of his child. ‘Adoption” under the plan is financial, not legal. The parent, cither an individual or a group, pledges to contribute $15 monthly toward the child’s sup port for at least a year. Children living at home, instead of in the plan’s colonies in several coun tries, are visited regularly by social workers. In a few cases foster parents have legally adopted a child after a visit overseas. But the spokes man for the plan points out that legal adoption is not a part of its program, since the countries overseas, believing that their fu ture lies in their children, prefer that they stay in their homelands. AT THE 1946 M.\SONIC PICNIC DR. L. P. MAH'nN Fragra«. Caaaittea ONE LIAR ENOUGH Father: “So you love my daugh ter?” Suitor: “Love her? Why I would die for her.

I’m something of a liar myself, and one is enough in a small fam ily like ouri.” Above is a familar scene to anyone attending the annual Masonic Picnic at Clem ent Grove. The crowd is awaiting outside the site of the famed picnic dinner that thousands have enjoyed through the pa>t years. This picture was made at the 1946 Masonic Picnic. PICN IC DIN N ER TIM E AT.THE 1947 PICN IC Luther Hartsell, Jr., of Concord, 1947 grandmaster of the Masonic lodges of North Carolina and speaker along with Senator W. B. Umstead at the 1947 Masonic Picnic at Mocksville, is shown above with Knox Johnstone, 1947 General Manager of the picnic, and Mrs. R. M. Hardee, enjoying the famed picnic dinner of Davie County food at the last picnic in 1947. FIRST GATE TICKET OF THE 1947 PICNIC E. C. Morns, assistant manager of the 1947 Masonic Picnic, is shown in the gate ticket booth preparing to sell the first gate ticket to the 1947 picnic to W. W. Ed wards of Winston-Salem. Mr. Edwards arrived in Mocksville by bus at 6:05 a.m. and waited untU the gat« opened at 7 a.m. Lonnie Gaither, left, of Hickory, Route 1, was the ticket collector. Messrs Edwards and Gaither have been attending the pic nics for some 30 odd years. DETAILED PICNIC HISTORY SHOWS RECORD OF SERVICE TO CHILDREN When it began as a suggestion many years ago while at another picnic near Cooleemee, no one could have predicted that over $104,000 would be donated by the annual Masonic picnic to the Ox ford Orphanage in 68 years of generosity. While on a picnic at the ‘Shoals’ where Cooleemee is now located, John H. Stewart suggested that the money left over from buying refreshments be donated to the orphanage. The idea of support to orphan boys and girls was heartily re ceived by those attending the picnic, and the donations have grown with the years. A gen erous heart and purse has al ways characterized Mocksville's most historic event. A look into musty, time-worn records shows that as far back as 1885 formal invitations to the picnic were issued requesting attendance with a dinner basket to be donated to the cause. FLOVMSH OP TME TIIIC8 Back in the Nineties the Ma sonic Picnic was celebrated with all the flourish of those times. A picnic train excursion was run from Winston, according to the minutes of the Mocksville lodge, in 1892, but it was discontinued later on when the train became a competitor in the sale of drinks and other commodities. The multi-course dinner has always been a main attraction of the picnic, but there have been numbers of other features. Water melon sales made money for the picnic in 1895, and after the turn of the century a morning picture show grossed $44.23. Baseball games were engaged in and hat collections brought in more do nations. PICNIC GBOVNDS BOUGHT Back in the Eighties the Ma sons were given use of the pic nic grounds by Herbert Clement, but in 1897 it was decided to buy the property of five acres, known today as Clement’s Grove. It is interesting to note that during all the years of the Ma- Fishermen Spend More Than Other Sportsmen Maybe fishermen have a right to teil fisti stories. After all, they spend more fo requipment than any other sportsmen. The Census Bureau said in a report on its 1947 census of man ufacturers that the factory value of fishing tackle sold to fishermen amounted to nearly $58,700,000. That, the bureau said, is more than one-fourth of the $210,000,- 000 worth oi sporting and ath letic goods of all kinds turned uot. FRUIT CUP LAST Diet experts have a '‘first shall be last” attitude toward a meal starting with fruit cup. Accord ing to Cosmopolitan magazine, they believe that, because of its sweetness, the fruit will probably dull rather than whet the appe tite. On the other hand, they re gard fruit cup as a perfect dess ert, as in grape fruit especially when spiked with a shot of sherry, brandy, or mm. sonic Picnic, no one has real ized a dime of profit from it. Donations of food and unceasing energy have been co-liberally contributed that every possible cent has been'added to the grow ing total of funds which yearly mark the success of a civic- sponsored program which is un ique in its very generostiy. Huge and happy crowds char acterize picnic day in Mocks ville. Visitors come from many miles around to enjoy the scores of groaning tables of Davie coun ty food. In 1946, 11,452 paid ad missions strolled through the gates, and total attendance was estimated above 12,000. Attend ance at the picnic, as well as outright donations, increases steadily.

C. Has Easy Way To Win Election—Just Skip It It looks as if the folks in this tiny eastern North Carolina com- nunity will have lo be content vith their present town adminis tration for two more years. There was supposed to have been an election May 3, but the city fathers forgot U—and nobody else seems to have remembered it either. Anyway, no election was held, and no one was named to succeed Mayor W. M. Laughinghouse or any of the five aldermen whose terms expired June 30. However, no one is getting un duly excited about the matter. Both general state law and Co lumbia’s charter contain provi sions which cover the situation. At the state capital. Attorney General Harry McMullan said that under the law, the present mayor and aldermen can serve their elected term and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Since no successors were elect ed May 3,. Mayor Laughinghouse and the five aldermen will remain ✓ in office until election day rolls around again two years from now. Mayor Laughinghouse explain ed how it happened: “ No one brought the matter up. and to be frank about it we just plain forgot it.’’ Four days before the election date, Alderman W. A. Williams did remember, but by then it was too late to do anythng about it. The law requires candidates to file at least 30 days prior to an election—and no one had filed. Mr. Wilhams wired Mr. Mc Mullan asking if it would be legal to hold a special election to fill the town offices, but Mr. McMull an ruled that out. He replied that “no authority exists for changing the date of a municipal election.” And that was that. The way it stands now, the present adminis tration will' have to stay in office another term whether it— and the voters—like U or not.

Gate Committee TO AID A WORTHY CAUSE AT A SMALL COST, ATTEND THE 69TH ANNUAL MASONIC PICNIC DAIRYMEN URGED TO REDUCE COSTS With milk prices dropping, dairymen need to keep produc tion costs as low as possible if they are to maintain their net mcome at present levels, says John A. Arey, in charge of dairy extension at State College. Arey says prices paid for farm products are falling more rapidly than farm operating costs. If this trend cuntinues, he adds, dairy farmers who fail to utilize every possible practice which might lower their production costs will find their profits ap proaching the vanishing point. Roughage is the cheapest source of cow feed, the dairy specialist points out. Roughage includes pasture, siliagc, and hay. In cheapness per feed unit, pasture, ranks first, silage second, and hay a close third. To lower production costs and increase profits, Arey suggests the following practices: Provide adequate grazing for as long a period as possible. Improve the quality of grazing through fertilization and good pasture management. Grow at home a minimum of from three to four tons of silage and IVi tons of hay per cow. Practice a good program of di sease control. Keep production and breeding records and continually cull out all low-producing cows. Grow replacements sired by production-bred bulls. Purchas ed replacements are expensive and often are responsible for bringing in diseases. Produce high quality milk, the kind the consumer is willing td pay :’or. Breed ana manage the herd aO that milk'production will be gear ed to demand. The usual heavy spring and early summer pro duction, followed by low fall and winter production, is less profit abel than uniform production. More cows should be bred' to freshen in September, October, and November. Keep enough cows to use effi ciently all available feed and la- oor. Provide the herd with an ade quate supply of clean fresh water. A bath of bulls’ blood was used ns a baptism in the myster ies of Attis, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica.

WALKER Grounds Committee JOHN CARTNER Grounds Committee Nylon Wig For Dolls And Santa’s Beard! Nylon is getting in America’s hair. To be specifiic, it's in the doll- wig business. And for most prac tical purposes, it is proving high ly satlsfartory. Sinre before the days of George Washington, when wigmaicers pasted such signs as this in their windows: “New shipment of hu man hair just arrived,” wigmaicers }iave been troubled with pftky properties of hair. Nylon monofilain»»t, developed by E. 1. Dupont de Nemours and Co., promises a transformation in the wig industry. Unlike hair, it does not become brittle, does not mat when washed and does not fall out when combed. Water soaps and detergents do not harm it. Today the real proving ground for wigs is in the doll industry. If a wig can stand the rigors of a child’s forceful affections, it can weather other tests without a hair standing on end. At Last It’s Done: Mole Hill Is Turned Into A Mountain The Post Office Department' says it is all right by it if people want to make n mountain out of a mole hill. The department said it has officiallly entered on its recosds the fact that Mole Hill, W. Va., has changed its name to Moun tain, W. Va. The latest census fig ures give the population there as 93.

E. Wifcon, inspector ior the Alco hol Control board, announced last week. The Chicken Shack, Mocksville, R. 1, operated by Jasper Fowler and Wilism Foster, was refused a beer permit for lack of sani tary facilities and application blanks l>eing improperly filled out. Foster’s store, operated by John Foster of Mockcville, R. 4, also surrendered his permit, Mr. Wil son announced. Mr. Wilson revealed that there are only 19 establishments in en tire Davie county with legal per mits to sell beer. Mr. Wilson stressed that the ABC regulations regarding the sale of beer were very strict and would be enforc ed. He pointed out that "it is a violation against a permit hold er to allow the sale or consump tion of liquor on the premises of a beer permit holder.” Mr. Wilson stated that all op erators have been furnished with a copy of the law and the new regulations of the ABC board, which became effective August 1, as to advertisement, clean-up eriod, and other regulations as to sale. Mr. Wilson stated that he hoped that every operator would study, and abide cloaejy by the laws, or get out of the beer re tailing business. All inspectors are instructed to report each vi olation to the board immediately after it is o^rved. Mr. Wilson pointed out that the beer laws are very strict as to cleanliness and sanitation, as well as to the hours prohibiting sale, for an establishment hold ing a beer permit. Also that all operators must properly light all places where beer is sold or con sumed. Mr. Wilson said that most of the operators were cooperating and are follovying the ABC regu lations very closely; while others seem to want to follow it only in part. “All beer permit holders must olmrve all the regulations applicable, or give up their beer privilege,” stated Mr. Wilson. NATIONAL GUARD PREPARING FOR SUMMER CAMP Final preparations are now un derway for the National Guard movement to Fort Jackson, S. C., for summer maneuvers, August 14-28.

J. Johnson, chairman; competitor re lations, E. W. Junker, chairman; buyer and seller relations, Rufus Sanford, chairman; employer and employee relations, Jason Branch, chairman. Here Mr. Sanford paid ai tribute to Mocksville, stating that nowhere could one find bet ter employer and employee rela tions than in Mocksville.

That they employed 300 to 400 Davie citi zens and considered them with the highest regards. The public relations committee. Or. S; A. Harding, chairman. Nick Mando, program chair man of the local club, spoke on the trials and tribulations of be ing program chairman of the lo cal Rotary club, and compared them to the lot of being secretary of the Merchants' Asosciation. Af ter Nick got through explaining the' reason why the club was go ing to have a program featuring a spelling match among the members, President Lester Mar tin rang the gong on account of lack of time and the spelling match was calle^ off. Visitors present for this meet ing included John Hartledge of Salisbury; Bob Hamilton of Mc Crary, Ark.; Dan Graves and Sam GilUam of Sylva,- and B. C. Brock of MocksviUe. CAFE RATINGS ARE ANNOUNCED Sanitary Inspections have been completed on all places in Davie county providing either food or lodging to the public, states Carl E. Shell.district sanitarian. Cafes ate checked on 63 differ ent items, and hotels and tourist homes on 46 items, each for a total of 1000 points. On a per centage basis any place receiving 90 or more is awarded grade A; those places receiving 80 or more but less than 90 are awarded grade B; those receiving 70 or more but less than 80 are award ed grade C. Permits are auto matically revoked if a place can not make a rating of 70 percent. There are more grades C cafes now than have been for a long time. Perhaps the hot weather had something to do with it, but cafe managers should realize that cleanliness is just as essential in hot weather as at any othej^ time and that good santitation pays at all times.

AMERICAN LEGION PUNS BIG GAME Plans are under way for the baseball game to end all baseball games to be held at the local park on Saturday night, August 27. This game, sponsored by the local post of the American Legion, will pit Spanish War veterans and the World War I veterans against the veterans of World War 11. These two teams will be asesmbled with in the next two weeks and will undergo a rigid training schedule in preparation for this important encounter. The proceeds of tliis game will go to defray some of the expenses acquired by the lo cal post in sponsoring Junior Le gion baseball this summer. The World. War I veterans are being assembled by “Doc” Ma son, while Gordon Tomlinson was given the responsibility of as sembling the World War U vet- craw. rurtber details and plans ior this bis gune ^iU an nounced m ui w e ^ Dr. Marshall Sanford, son of Mr. R. B. Sanford of MocksVille, was chief assistant to Dr. Bla lock in the performance of a mir acle operation at John Hopkins Hospital that saved the life of a little boy from Bladen County, N. C., suffering from the fatal “Blue Boy Disease.” This little boy was given only two months longer to live due to the seriousness of his condition, ihie exchange club of Fayetteville raised the money and sent him to Baltimore for an examination and operation. After the examination by about six specialists, it was concurred that an operation was mandotory if the little boy was to live more than two months. The operation was performed by Dr. Blalock, who had origin ated this operation, and was as sisted by Dr. Marshall Sanford. Dr. Sanford reported to a nrirs reporter of Bladen County, who accompanied the boy and his mother, that U operation he liad eirer as^it^ in. He said that Edward’s heart had stopped at five different times during the operation and they had to massage it to get is to start beating again. This little boy, Edward Ray of Bladen County, is now looking forward to a normal healthy life thanks to the wonderful surgery miracle performed. At the re union between little Edward and his mother, she is quoted as say ing: “This is not my boy. 1 have never seen him with a healthy color to his skin. ’Thank all the people who have helped bring my boy back to me. 1 cannot find words to express my gratitude.” VETERAN ENTITLED TO SICK KNEFITS Many North Càroiinâ veterans being treaty regularly by their own physicians for service-con nected ailments at their own ex pense are unaware that they are entitled to such treatments at government expense. This benefit applies to only those veterans who have filed a claim and have been granted service-connection for disability even though they did not receive a compensable rating for com pensation. A large number of veterans have been granted a service-con nected “zero” rating making them ineligible to receive compensation but entitling them «to out-patient treatment at government expense. Veterans who have no compen- №ble rating but have established service-connection and who de sire treatment at other than their own expense should make appli cation at once and thus save un necessary expenses to themselves. Davie county veterans who can qualify for out-patient treatment should see Fred R. Leagans, Da vie county service officer, or Mrs. Maxalene 8.

J. P. Davis, president, and Rev. R. M. Hardee, secretary. As these peti tions contained over a thousand names, and only 734 names were needed to 'call the election, the board promptly set the election date for September 3. On July 29, after the legaUty of the petitions had been ques tioned in several quarters, tlw board of elections again met and re-examined the petitipoa and fwind 33 .of hamM-Hout oT 'oIa^ . ^AbiD ¿IfMr irregularities were noted, but not pursued as the petitions were de clared illegal by the board be cause they failed to designate in what county the signers are reg istered voters, in what county the requested election was to be call ed, and to whom the petitions are addressed. These 33 petitions vio lated section 18-134, sub-section 'C,' of the General SUtutes ot North Carolina. i> B. C. Brock, local attorney and chairman of the dry forces, con ceded the illegality of the peti tions in a letter to the board prior to their meeting last Wednesday night. Brock’s letter requested “that the petitions be withdrawn and the election called of.” The board of elections accord ingly rescinded and annulled thciir action of June 30 which called off the election scheduled for September 3. The board also pro vided that the petitions and oth er . conmunications regarding same become a part of the per manent file of the Diayl*^‘County Board of Elections. B. C. Brock, attorney and re cently elected head of the Davie drys, stated Tuesday that other petitions had been drawn up and were now in the process of being circulated. He predicted that the required number of names would t>e obtained and that the drys would carry the election by a big majority. Rev. R. M. Hardee, one of the leaders in the dry movement, stated that he believed the call ing off of the election would help the dry cause. He explained the illegal petitions as “just purely an oversight,” and that care was being used in obtaining the sig natures on the new petitions. Mr. Hardee sUted that oy.er a hun dred pettiions are now in circu lation and more are being printed. Those favoring the legal con trol of the sale of wine and beer in Davie county have iormtd an organization known as the Citi- sens Control committee of _ county. ^ FACE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

DURE POWER COMPANy Dear Mrs. McQuage: August 14, 1949 will be the 14th Anniversary of the Social Security Act. Through your pub lication. jfou have greatly con tributed to the successful admin istration of this Act. I thank you personally and on behalf of the Social Security Administration forthe cooperation and help you have been to the Winston-Salem office. In social legislation it is im- j possible to cast up accounts in the' exact sense that we do when the matter is entirely one of dollars and cents, without human values to be taken into consideration. Nevertheless, constant apprasial is necessary for the full develop ment of an intergrated program of Social Security. We have gone far toward meet ing the needs that brought about the passage of the Social Security Act in 1935. The original Act did not provide for monthly bene fits to a retired worker at 65, to his family, or to his survivors in case of his death at any age. The Act was amended to do this in 1939. The first monthly checks were sent out in 1940. We started out that year with lio one receiv ing monthly benefits, and now we have 2^4 million persons receiv ing monthly payments of 55 mill ion dollars under the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance provision alone. In the counties of Davie, Forsyth, Stokes, Siirry and Yad kin—the area serviced by the Winston-Salem office—we have about 3,500 beneficiaries re ceiving approximately $50,000 in benefits each month. This helps in maintaining the purchasing power of communities and in solv ing social problems. As you know, the Social Se curity Account Number is the key to the holder’s account with the Government. Now 95 million holders have a stake in the future of the program. Today, 13 million individuals possess guaranteed annuities and many millions more have established protection for their families in case of their deaths. Let us not forget that millions of workers had to be informed about their rights under the pro gram so that they could protect themselves .and their families. New employees are entering cov ered employment each day—new businesses are daily being started. Therefore, our informational pro gram in a continous one. You have and are playing an import ant part in this informational ser vice. I think w« have a right to b* proud of the gains we have made in such a short time. However, we would b« deceiving ourselves if we did not realize that the de velopment of Social Security in this country is still incomplete and will remain incomplete until adequate protection is provided for ALL the people against the various economic hazards with which they ara confronted.

Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second d a s s Matter Under Act of Congress of Marcli 8, 1879 REVALUATION OF PROPERTY Early last spring a group representing tlie N№cksvilie Junior Chamlier of Commerce appea^d before the local County Commissiones and requsted a revaluation of prop erty at a fair and equal value. The Commisioners went on record before this group as seeing the great need for revaluation and of being in favor of it. No definite com mitment was made sis to when this would comm ence. At the first meeting of the new board of directors of the local Jaycees, the revaluation of property for this county was unanimously adopted as a project for the com ing year. A committee was appointed to appear before the commis sioners tuid determine, if possible, when this revaluation could take place. The new mayor and board of aldermen, upon taking office and finding themselves deluged with legitimate re quests from the citizens of the town and with a low source of revenue from a high tax rate, immediately went over the tax records and were shocked at the inequalities that existed. Being powerless to adjust these inequalities them selves, they resolved to appear before the County Commis sioners and request them to hold a revaluation of property immediately. . • « • On Monday of last week these two groups appeared jointly before the County Commisioners and stated their cases. The County Commissioners acknowledged famil iarity with the inequalities and discrepancies existing in the valuaton of property on the books, and went on record again as being in favor of a revaluation. Although no def inite commitment was obtained as to when this would be, indications were that some immediate preliminary steps would be taken. * i ; ' ? « j : » V Some people in the county may be opposed to this re valuation; there are always some people on the other side. However, no one but an utterly selfish individual could voice his opposition to a plan whose sole purpose is only to equalize. Any unselfish Individual wants to pay his part, but few want to pay more than their part. The taxes are not equal in Davie County today. • Persons who have built homes and business buildings in the past 15 years are pay ing more than their share of the taxes. A look into the tax records of the county will show you why. It is doubtful if any county in the State can exceed the long period of time that Davie has gone without a re valuation. Most counties of the State have revalued their properties many, many times in a like period. Many re valued property last year, and many more counties are in that process of revaluation this year. All are doing it in the interest of the taxpayer who finances the county and municipal governments. The last revaluations of the other counties of the State have been conducted by an outside firm on a scientific basis. There are appraisal engineering firms in the United S^tes that specialize in this type of work. It is understood that these firms will send a representative to a county requesting and explain their scientific revaluatipn system and how the county and taxpayers will benefit by the equalization of the tax burden in line with present values. Davie county should act today. FORK with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Watt. Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Potts, Helen _ and Brenda Potts spent Sunday Mr. and Mrs. L. R.

Gene Greene made a business trip to Greenville Wednesday W HAT ABOUT THE BEER QUESTION In accordance with what has already been said concerning the above question, I would like to add the following: With every election of the “Wet or Dry" question one of the often repeated statements is that only the “excess” should be avoided. Here is a case where a family tried just ihat. In a certain town in Pennsyl vania, the old question was about to . be voted on again,| when, There arose from one corner ot the room a miserable woman. She was thinly clad, and her appear ance indicated that her mortal career was almost closed. Raising her voice to a shrill pitch, she called to all to look upon her. “ Yes!” she said, “look upon me, and then hear me. All that the last speaker has said relative to temperate drinking, is true. All practice, all experience declares its truth. Temperate drinking of alcoholic poison is in excess. Look upon me! You all know me, or once did. You all know that I was once the, best mistress of one ofthe best farms in twon; you alt know too, I had one of the best— the most devoted husbands. You all know I had fine, noble-heart- ed boys. Where are they now? Where are they now? You all know. You all know they lie in a row, side by side in yonder Church yard; all—every one of them filling a drunkard's grave! They were all taught to believe that temperate drinking was saf^ —that exccss alone ought to be avoided; and they never acknow ledged excess. They quoted you, and you, and you (pointing to various ones) as authority. They thought themselves safe under such teachers. I saw the gradual change coming over my family and its prospects with dismay and horror, in which the idea of the benefits of temperate drinking had involved my husband and sons. “The Church member who sits under the Pulpit there, took our farm to pay for his rum bills, sold them thc poison; some said a little was good and only the excess ought to be avoided. My poor husband, and my dear.boys fell into that snare; they could not escape, and one after another, they were conveyed to the sorrow ful grave of the drunkard.” Beloved such a* thing as this is bad enough but the sad part about it is that the worse is yet to come. It is when you go the the drunkard’s grave that you really begin to “pay” for in 1st Corinthians the 6th chapter and the 10th verse we read that the drunkard shall not inherit the Kingdom ot God. Beloved' that only leaves one other place for thc drunkard to go! Christian, it is in your hands. IF YOU D O N T VOTE AGAINST IT YOU HELP TO PUT IT IN THE HANDS OF YOUR FELLOW MAN, YOUR SONS, AND YOUR DAUGHTERS. VOTE IT OUT AND SAVE A SOUL FROM HELL! JAMES J CHANEY. .. Mocksville Assembly of God TELEPHONE COMPANY REPORT SHOWS LOCAL PROGRESS The report ot W. S. Bedding- tield to the North Carolina Utili ties commission concerning the operation and progress of the Central Telephone company re veals the following concerning Mocksville; Mocksville is a common battery exchange, now being served by a two-position Kellogg non—multi ple common battery switchboard, equipped with 360 lines. Since December 31, 1943, the original one-position common battery switchboard has been re placed by a modern two-position common battery switchboard. 160 lines have been added, an in crease of 80.0 per cent in switch board lines and 100.0 per cent in | switchboard positions. Automatic ringing has ben installed, charg ing equipment and batteries re placed, and a wire chief's test cabinet installed. Mayor Issues Warning On Building Permits Mayor John Durham this week called the attention of prospective builders to the town ordinatice requiring the securance of a build ing permit before the erection, ot any type of building is com menced. Toll circuits were increased to six, a gain of 100 per cent. Service was made available to 280 additional stations—an in crease of 78.0 per cent. Rural sta tions increased 57.6 per cent. A service man is now stationed in Mocksville. Prior to this all repair service was obtained from Elkin. Two rural lines were strung to Advance, a distance of some 12 miles and new pole lines con structed in the Advance commu nity. Three miles of new rural lines were constructed on the Elkin road. ■•‘'S: i f A new cable was placed in the business district giving much needed relief. Further expansion projects now under consideration for Mocks ville area as revealed by C. J. Wilson, local repair man, are: In stall new cable down Wilkesboro street. This has already been ap proved and will be completed this year. Four rural projects: Far mington, Statesville highway, Cooleemee road and Lexington highway. These projects are not yet approved. Plan to enlarge switchboard around January 1. This will enable better service\ and provide more operators to handle the business.

This has brought about lotf of Jiroblems to consider and do something about. First it has caused farmers to realize that they should produce more milk during the winter mcnth.s and less during the sum mer months. The following suggestions are ollered for your consideration in ! this matter. 1. Plan now to have plenty ol winter grazing. a. Prepare a good seed bed. b. Use a mixture ol one bush el of oafs, barley and rye with 15 pounds ol crimson clover and 15 pounds ol rye grass. c. Use 500 pounds ol 5-10-5 fertilizer per acre. d. Seed August 15 to Septem ber 1. • ’ e. Top-dress with nitrogen in February. 2. Cull your low producers and replace with good heavy springing heifers or good fresh cows. 3. Breed only slow breeders for next three months. 4. After November 1, breed all cows and heilers of breeding age. This will increase your winter production in the future. fMOsat MUk N w * EeiMMSiieallj 1. Improve your permanent paiturca. a. Prepare a good seed bed. b. Seed cither one to two pounds of Ladino clover and IS ot orchard grass or 15 of Kentucky No. 31 Fes cue per acre. c. Vse one to two tons lim^ per acre and 600 to 800 pounds of 2-12-12 fertilizer. d. Seed August 15 to Septem ber 19. X Seed More AUalla. a. Prepare a good seed bed. b. Seed 25 to 30 pounds per acre. c. Inoculate seed. d. Use 1 to 2 tons of lime and aOO to 1000 pounds ol 2-12-12 ler- tilizer per acre. e. Seed August 15 to Septem ber 15. 3. Make plans for silage. 4. Grow your own heilers lor herd replacement. 5. Keep production and feed records. 6. Cull low producers. 7. Use artificial breeding or other proven sires to increase your production. Give the milk producers or ganization your lull support and cooperaion. Together you can get tt>e job done. Keep in mind at all times to produce tke best quality product possible.

ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, AUGUST 12,1949 MORE ABOVT Mocksville Battles able ns we went to press. On Thursdiiy night of this week Mocksville will meet the lengue leading Mt. Pleasant team in nn important game at Rich Park. This is a regular sched uled game and a victory would prove very important to Mocks ville in the stretch drive for a play-off position. The game orig inally scheduled for Thursday af ternoon between Mocksville and the Davie County league All- Stars has been called off at the request of the chairman of the Masonic picnic because of the belief that two games that day might conflict with the interests of the piciflc. This will be the first Masonic picnic in over a decade on which an afternoon baseball game was not played. However, since the local club was required to play the night game, scheduled by the league head quarters in Salisbury, the club Beer Taxes Pay More Into State Treasury Beer taxes collected by the State in July totaled $336,825.89, the State Department of Revenue reported today. Total collections for the first seven months of 1949 total $2,476,- 932.6». Half of the excise tax is distributed annually to counties and municipalities which license beer sales. The tax totals do not include the State sales tax on beer or li cense taxes levied by the Federal and local governments. and the Davie Memorial associa tion cooperated with the picnic officials and canceled the after noon game. Mocksville will play Cooleemee there on Saturday afternoon, meet Cleveland here Tuesday night; Spencer there Tliursday; and end the season on next Sat urday night with Albenwrle here.

SALISBURY, N. C. MRS. OEOROE APPERSON President of N. C. Fecieration of Home Demonstration Clubs Davie County HostessCOUNTY WHEAT AUOTMENTSGIVEN A 1950 wheat allotment of 6,964 acres for Davie county was an nounced today by the County Ag ricultural Conservation comnnit- iee. This represents Davie County’s proportionate share ot. the na tional wheat acreage allotment for the crop that will tie harvest' ed next year, D. B. Miller, com mittee chairman, explains. T ^ national allotment is the acreage that at normal yields w ill pro duce an amount of wheat which together with the expected car ry-over next July 1 will supply contemplated domestic and ex port requirements and provide a safe reserve. “Individual (arm allotment*, based on acreage and production data collected over the past sev eral months, have l>een estab lished,” Mr. Miller stated, “and notices to growers will be mailed from the county office some time this month. Acreage allotments are not aA enforced limitation on produc tion, but provide a limitation on government expenditures for price support beyond the nation al interest, Mr. Miller explains. Only those farmers who seed within their farm aloltmetns will be entitled to price supporting commodity loans, or purchase agreements on their 19S0 crop. “Although adverse conditions during the growing season have resulted in a smaller 1949 wheat crop than expected earlier, this year’s harvest will still be the third largest of record and the sixth consecutive wheat crop in excess of one billion bushels,” Mr. Miller points out. The average yearly domestic consumption of wheat is only 700,000,00 bushels, and only abnormally high ex ports supported by ECA allot ments and army purchases for occupied countries has prevented the accumulation of price-depres sing rurpluses,” Mr. Miller em phasizes that if wheat growers comply with acreage allotments, thus adjusting production to ex pected requirements, it may be unnecessary' to use marketing quotas for future crops. FOUR CORNERS At Federation Luncheon This is Davie county’s year at Farm and Home week, now in session. Mrs. George Apperson, president of the North Carolina Federation of Home Demonstra tion clubs, is a very important character in the success of this 41st session of Farm and Home week at State college.

LIBRARIAN GIVES ANNUAL REPORT Another year’s record can be added to the history of Davie County Public library. The libra ry was established in November of 1943 with hopes, fears and crossed fingers. In the six years since many hopes have been re alized, many fears dismissed and some fingers uncrossed. In this time the .library has shown a steady, not spectacular growth in every way, consequently, the fis cal year just ended has been the best of all. “Comparisons,” they say, “are odious,” but even so they can be interesting, as a' brief compari son of the first year-of the libra ry and the last will show. The book collection has grown from 1,000 borrowed books from the N. C. Library commission, and 82 home owned, to 5,474; registra tion from 296 to 1,542; circula tion from 7,064 to 24,823; days open from , 156 to 308; finances from $1,263.71 to |4,8Й3.70. While the library has grown in every way, there are other facts to be kept constantly in mind. To keep a library book collection up to date and usable at least 1 book for every 5 persons should be added annually. During the year 1 book for every 25 was add ed. It is impossible to build an adequate 1юок collection when so few (comparatively speaking) new books are added, when large books wear out and must be with drawn. And when many people are careless with public proper ty, taking books out, losing them, or never returning them. In the life of the library 281 кхюкв have t>een lost or withdrawn. ’Two b<x>ks per capita should Ы owned for public library use. In Davie there is approximately one-third of a book per capita. And then there is the ever present crowded condition. The really highliglit in the year’s history is the purchase of a bookmobile, which in reality means another library and one that covers the county. The book mobile travels 150 miles a month, is operated every Wednesday, and makes 40 stops to give direct ser vice to individual readers. A unique feature of the operation of this bookmobile is, that Davie is the only county in the north western district, and probably in a larger territory, that has a driv er who is giving his time to the work, assisting the librarian also in the distribution of books. The bookmobile unit has not yet reached the point of complete sat isfaction to the library board jmd the operators, but that will work out as time goes on. The records of the Davie coun ty public library are always available for any one interested. The patrons are urged to become acquainted with their library.

JAYCEES P U N FOR CURRENT PROJECJ The board of directors of the local Junior Chamber of Com merce set up a steering commit tee and tentatively outlined a mode of operation for their cur rent project of securing the re valuation of property' for Davie county. This action by the board of di rectors followed the general meet ing with the county commissoin- «ra early thia .RiMitb. The Davie County Board of Commissioners at their regular meeting this month, went on rec ord as being unanimously in fa vor of revaluation of property for Davie county, and acknowledged that they were familiar with the varying discrepancies now exist ing on the tax books relative to property valuations. President Mando pointed out that the objective of securing re valuation of property was not to increase taxes, but to equalize taxes and lower the tax rate. He explained how the high tax rates of Davie county and Mocksville were deterring progress by scar ing away new industries that may locate in Davie county. “Only last week,” stated Mando, “a repre sentative of a textile plant from Lancaster, Pa., was sent to me because he was looking for the Chamber of Commerce, which of course we don’t have. This man stated that his company was in terested in locating a textile plant in this area and he was surveying the possibilities. One of his first questions concerned the tax rate. When he was told that the county rate was 92 cents and that the rate in Mocksville was $1.35, he immediately lost his enthusiasm for locating in this county.” The board of directors in out lining plans for cooperating with the county commissioners and the local town officials in securing this revaluation at the earliest possi ble date, adopted a procedure of educating the taxpayers of this county as to the need for it, and to the benefits it will bring. The Jaycees plan to bring in officials who are familiar with the reval uation procedure as speakers, and to bring to the attention of the public the unfair discrepancies now existing in the present valu ation set-up. A committee was appointed to keep in close con tact with the county officials and to offer the cooperation of the local Junior Chamber of Com merce in, aiding the progrets of th!T reTUiMtion pirograin. Davie Electric Membership Corp. Has Fine Record 0 Governor W. Kerr Scott has accepted the invitation of the Da vie Electric Membership corpor* ation and will make the princi* pal a d d r ^ at the 11th annual REA meeting to be held in Mocks ville on September 3, at the Mar sonic Picnic grounds. Governor Scott will head the list of notables to be present at the meeting that include Gwyn Price of Raleigh, head of N. C. REA authority; and several no tables from Washington, D. C.

Most idle land is decreasing in fertil ity bccause of severe erosion. I feel that it will be profitable for much of this idle land to be con verted into permanent pastures. I would like to see every farmer in Davie County, regardless of the size of the farm, have at least one acre of good improved perman ent pastures. Almost every farm, largo or small, has at least one cow and an acre of good pasture could provide a great deal of cheap, wholesome feed for that cow. The time is at hand to begin preparing the land for pasture crops. It is a good idea to begin by bogging the fields immediate ly. If there are cover crops on the land now, bogging them this early v;ill speed up the process of rotting Ihe crops. Soil sample containers may be obtained from the County Agent’s office. If soil samples are taken immediately and sent to Raleigh, recommendations as to lime and fertilizer needs should be back to the farmers within the next two or three weeks. If the soil has not been limed and farmers have the lime, it is a good idea to apply the lime on the land before it has been bogg ed the first time. Experiments show that better results are ob tained by working lime into the top few inches of the soil, than by turning, it -under. If the soil has not been tested and no lime has been applied to the land you plan to sow in pastures, it will be safe to use an average of one and one-half tons of lime per acre and a very minimum amount of one ton per acre. If the soil has not been tested we recommend from five to six hundred pounds of 2-12-12 fertilizer per acre on average to good soils, and on poor soils we recommend eight hun dred pounds of 2-12-12 fertilizer. Thc lime that should be applied should not take the place of the above fertilizer recommendations. The following mixtures are rec ommended; Twelve pounds of or chard grass. Two pounds of la dino clover or ten pounds of fes cue, two pounds of ladino clover Another mixture that is growing in popularity is six pounds of orchard grass, five pounds of fes cue and two pounds of ladino clover.

However, or chard grass does pretty well in moist soils. The fescue might pro vide a little more grazing earlier in the spring and a little later in the fall than will orchard grass. The orchard grass seems to be a little more tender than fescue. It is necessary that a good seed bed be prepared before sowing the mixture. .A cultipacker should be used in preparing the seedbed if one is available. Care should be taken not to cover the seed more than one-fourth of an inch. Too many seed are buried so deep ly that they will never come up.

Barely three months after the successful June 4 bond referen dum the state’s new roadbuilders expect to begin announcing which roads get first priority under tlie expanded program. By late Sep tember they hope to release full details about the first batch of bond money roads. That doesn’t mean the roads will get paved immediately, but work will start on some this fall and many others next winter and spring. Planning these road projects has been a full-time job for the commissioners since their ap pointment last May 1.

Some commissioners have been/personally riding over every road earmarl<ed for hard-surfac ing. Others have asked commiss ioners and citizens’ groups to as sist in recommending roads for ¡mprovement. The new commissioners got a quick start on their planning pro gram. Iri June they voted to re quest issuance of $30,000,000 of tho $200,000,000 in bond money. In July they decided to buy 000.000 worth of road construct ion and maintenance equipment. This month tliey directed their engineering staffs to speed up work on all regular construction projects waiting to bo let to con- ;ract. Governor Scott’s road program calls for the hard-surfacing ot 12.000 miles of secondary roads and stabilization of another 35,- 000 miles. In some cases conmi- Issioners will concentrate on sta bilization before construction. Some feel that keeping dirt roads well maintained during the com ing winter should outrank the black topping program. Letters have been sent to county school superintendents requesting ad vice about school bus routes need ing first attention during bad Weather. T h e average commissioner spends as much time dealing with the public as he does with his own engineering staff. Most people want their roads Immediately, and a great part of the road ex ecutive’s day must be devoted to explaining w h y roadbuilding takes time. Each commissioner has direct responsibility for expenditure of all funds in his division. The Gen eral Assembly, following recom mendations of the Commissioti, decides how much money shall be allocated to construction, main tenance, betterment, etc. Then tliese sums are divided ten ways, using a special formula. From that point on the division staffs take over. They make final de cisions on locating new roads, hard-surfacing old ones and main taining old and new. For rendering this service, the commissioner gets nothing more than a $7-per-day renumovation while on the job. In addition he gets subsistence and gasoline mileage when he travels on high way business. Only the chairman of the Highway Commission draws a full-time salary. Suggestions have been made •icriodically that all commiss- Jiierò ought to got a regular sal- iry. but tho principle ot public iei vice inherent in the Commiss ion’s work since its founding in ;915 still prevails. Because of its prestige, and in spite ot its low pay, the commissioner's seat is a job widely, souglit. LEnERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Zditor: I am opposed to beverage al cohol because of several reasons which I shall mention a few; • 1. “Wine is a mocker, strong .¡rink is raging; and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." —Prov. 20; 1 "At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder.” 2. I am opposed to legalized ■.leverage alcohol because it opens -ip and endorses anoti-.er avenue :jy which tiie drinker can obtain ..t. 3. The use of strong drink of ten leads to drunkardnessr It lowers and even destroys self- respect, and causes poverty. It defiles the body, causes many wrecks, and deaths. The evils of intoxication are like poisoned arrows tiiat fly unseen. Drunk- .irdness crucifies iiappiness, bids love depart and turns tenderness to rage. It destroys youth and manhood, ^ambition and honor, breaks loved one’s hearts, hastens sickness and death, it cuts short one’s usefullness. 4. It destroys the soul. God pronounced a woe upon tiie drunkards ot Ephraim. “Woe to the drunkards of Ephraim—Isa. 28:12. Drunkardness leads to Hell. Paul words “ . . . Nor drunkards shall inherit the kingdom ot God" — 1 Cor. G;I0. Intoxication is tho parent of crime and infamy. It is society's worse enemy. I am definitely opposed to the sale of beverage alcohol—legally or bootlegging. ,I shall use my in fluence, and my vote against le galized beverage alcohol in this county. G. W.

Social Security Employer-Employee Partnership Explained A considerable amount ot mis information about the responsi bilities ot both employers and employees under Social Security regulations still exists, according to a statement made today by Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager of the Winston-Salem office ot the Social Security Administration. To begin with, many now em ployers going into bVisinesses covercd by Act erroneously be lieve that do not have to report wages paid to part time help, she said. The Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance program calls for the payment of taxes that are| levied at equal rates on both en'.ployers and employees un der the Federal Contributions Act._ Tiiis system applies to every employer who lias лпе or niore employees in employment cover ed by the Act, Mrs. Duffy stated, and it dou^-n't matter whether the employee works an hour, a day, j or longer. The age of the em ployee is immaterial. Many employees, Mrs. Duffy ' continued, forget, or do not know | that tliey are cliarged by law, to show their Social Security num bers to their employers within fourteen days after being hired, or before they leave the job, if sooner. This, however, does not relieve the employer of all re-j sponsibility. He, too, has the duty to demand such a number during the prescribed period and if the employee gets away before his number is furnished, the em ployer should fill out a Form SS-5, employer's “Application for Social Security Account Number", setting forth as clearly as possible the employee's full name, pres ent or previous address, his date and plice of birth and his parents names. This form then should be attached by the employer to the tax return. Another duty sometimes not carried out calls for the furnish ing of a receipt to the employee at least one a year, or at the time he leaves the firm’s einploy. These receipts must show the amount of wages paid and period ; covered by the receipt. The with- iiolding receipt will serve this purpose, Mrs.. Duffy said. Calling for all employers to follow these simple regulations, ! she pointed out that by so doing ' the businessman can save him- selt a great deal of future time and effort by eliminating the correspondence that is sure to follow the omission ot ti'.e re- j quired information on ta.x re-, turns. 1 A representative of the Social, Security .‘Administration will be | in MocksviUe agaiii on August 24 at tiie Courtiiouse, Second Floor, at 12:30 p.m., and in Cool eemee on the same date at the Erwin Cotton Mills Office at 11;- 00 a.m. HEFFNER AND BOLiCK PRESENTS FOR YOUR PLEASURE. . . «^DOTTY DRIPPLE ‘By Buford Tunef Share in the high-quality groceries always on sale at HEFFNER & BOLICK.

C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of .Congress of March 8, 1879 lEHERS TO THE EDITOR A MONUMENT TO FREEDOM The Winston-Salem Journal is very deservingly receiv ing the jplaudits of Forsyth county for their expose of a situation existing in the Forsyth County Hospital. Once again they displayed their newspaper integrity by present ing both sides of the issue to the people. Had it not been for this newspaper, probably the affair would have never been brought to light, and many innocent people could have suffered. A few months ago another expose by the Winston-Sa lem Jorunal of George Smith and the huge operation of his “butter and eggs lottery” in North Carolina rocked this section of the State. As a result Oeorge Smith was arrest ed, but subsequently was released on bond pending trial— a trial which cannot occur until the missing witnesses are found. The extent of the corruption of this racket was shown by the Journal as reaching into several police de partments and high government places. This expose, too, was of Inestimable value in their prime objective— that of public service, S J - A few months ago as the factions lined up for the bat tie of whether Forsyth county would establish Alcohol Bev erage Control stores to handle their liquor problem, or whether they would retain their present system, The Win- ston-Salm Journal and Sentinel publicly announced that the editorial policy of these newspapers would be for the ABC stores. Along with this announcement of policy, the Journal also announced that an editor, Santford Martin, was opposed to ABC stores for Forsyth, or any other coun ty, and that he would be given the privilege to freely express himself and editorialize in whatever manner he chose in the Winston-Salem Journal, the only stipulation being that he sign his name to his articles. Many have congratulated and praised Mr. , Martin for his stand, and the Mocksville Enterprise does likewise. Our hats are off to anyone who stands up fo his belief and does not yield to prestige and pressure fom whatever source. However, while many were strong in their praise of Mr. Martin for taking his stand, only a few complimented the Piedmont Publishing com pany for granting him this free dom of expression. And in this lies one of the most serious problems existing in the world today— that of believing that freedom of expression and belief exists only on one side. How many try to suppress and regulate the freedom of expression of adverse political beliefs? Deos not the recent rejuvenation of the Ku Klux Klan in certain sections and their wanton attacks indicate suppression of difTerlng Ideas and mores? How many churches today would tolerate freedom of expression on the part of their officials of be liefs contrary to established church doctrines? How many laws have been conceived in recent years to regulate an individual’s life, deny freedom of choice, and in general take away individual Initiative? Would the Allied Church League or any other organization opposing the ABC Issue grant one of their members the privilege of expressing through their official news organ, beliefs contary to their policy? This privilege granted Mr. Martin by the Winston-Sa lem Journal is much more important than is first realized by the average person. They recognize and put into practice the belief that individual freedom is the most important constituent of the American way of life.

For full, even, efficient heat cleanli ness is important. Reflecting surfaces must be kept shining to do their job of throwing out heat. A clean range also helps keep the kitchen clean and free of un necessary smoke and odors. Some general hints on cleaning are: Wipe up spills and spatters promptly with a dry cloth or paper. Acid foods may cat into cnnmel surfaces if left on. Other foods, especially grease, may scorch on until they are difficult to remove except by strenuous scouring, likely to be hard on the surface. Grease comes off most easily when fresh and hot. Metal and porcelain surfaces need frequent washing with a cloth moistened in warm suds of mild soap or detergent, but this should be done only after the stove cools. A wet cloth on a hot stove is a hazard to hands and may crack enamel. Many good housekeepers make an after- the-dishes habit of washing the stove. Go eosy on Avater, the specialists say, so that it does not drip or run down the sides or into burners, leaving streaks or rust. Charred particles on burners or heating units, or in the bottom of the oven may be brushed out after the stove cools.

Mr. Neal discussed the trends in business during the past year. Some o i his observations were: I That we are coming slowly down oft the high inflationary peak; the period of shortage of mer chandise and materials is over; price level trend is downward; unemloyment in total number is up, but in percentage is lower than pre-war; that the country now posseses a tremendous back log of buying power, but is hold ing off in hopes of better values in the future. Mr. Neal stated that there was a good chance for any business to make 1949 a pretty good year if thinking was adjusted to normal conditions. He predicted that the soft days for business were over, and that ingenuity and merchan dising, two factors that created American business, would once again be prime requirements of business success.

C., FRIDAY, AUGUST 26,1949 “AU The County Newt For Everybody”No. 23 NEW SOUTH RIVEITMETHODIST CHURCH TO BE DEDICATED SUNDAY Church Organized First In 1834 At 10:45 Sunday morning, Au gust 28, the cornerstone for the new South River Methodist church will be laid by Rev. W. B. West, district superintendent, Salisbury district. Immediately following the laying of the cor nerstone, Rev. C. W. Freeman, pastor of the church, will preach the dedication sermon. Around 12 noon a picnic dinner will be spread on the ground. Services will continue during the after noon featuring varioui choirs and singers in a varied program of song services. The above homecoming pro gram is being planned as a cli max to the years of hard work by the congregation and friends of the ^uth River Methodist church to secure a new church building. This new building bears a total cost of 924,000, which was raised as follows; From the congregation and friends of the church—material donated 93,334; labor donated $4,235; cash do nated 913,441; making a grand total of 930,000 raised by the church. Four thousand dollar* was received from the Duke en dowment. The history of the South River Methodist church datat back to ’ January 1, 1834, when Alexander Smoot deeded land on which the original South River church was built. Prior to this time, there being no church edifice, preach ing was held in private homes throughout the community. The original church was built of logs and stood about 75 feet to the rear of the present church. This site was the scene of many glorious camp meeting days prior to the war between the States. In 1882, while Rev. G. A. Ogles by was serving the congregation as preacher, there arose the ques tion of building a new church ed ifice. Under the personal guid ance and direction of the Rev. Mr. Oglesby, who made a per sonal canvas of the congregation from home to home, and secured the majority vote of the church membership to build a new church building. Forthwith the Rev. Mr. Oglesby championed the cause and launched the enter prise. This building was erected solely by volunteer labor that cut and hewed the lumber on the site. A great white oak beam was hewed out of a great tree felled and worked by George A. Misenheimer and Alex Lee Smoot of the congregation. Upon this beam was built a self supporting roof and ceiling, independent of supporting columns in the church auditorium. The raising of this great beam to its place by the means of sheer manpower, was a great engineering feat of that day. Unfortunately, .however, much cf the studding was hewed out of second-growth pine, and was left too long in pen-stacl(s, and became badly sun-warQed. The result was that thé church frame was not so sightly, nor as strong, as it could have been. From 1882 until 1884, when he was sent to the Mt. Pleasant charge. Rev. Mr. Oglesby per sonally supervised the construc tion of the building. His successor, Rev. T. A. Stone, followed in Oglesby's footsteps and super vised the construction to comple (CenUBiMi OB Г ч * •) Operation of County Library Is Explained Who buys the books for the public library? This and similar questions have come to the minds of a lot of people in Davie county as they see their new bookmobile taking books to the four corners of the county. Parents in partic ular are concerned about how books are selected for their chil dren’s reading. Many people help the Davie county librarian and librafy board provide good reading for ihe county's residents. The libra« ry profession has cooperated in making lists of good books suit able for use in public libraries. Specialists in many subjects read and evaluate the great number of books published each year. Com paratively few are recommended for purchase by libraries.'In this way the library’s small budget is used for the best books published. The local librarian, with limited time and resources, orders only those books which have been care fully examined and recommend ed by experienced and trained li brarians. In the case of children’s books it is not necessary to order late publications altogether: old fa vorite* arc new.to each new gen eration of children. The locai li brary is trying to buy books of lasting merit which should be available to every child. Newspapers have carried a great deal of publicity recently about controlling the sale of "comic books” and crime maga zines. This has made many peo ple concerned about the library’s responsibility in this problem.

Mount Pleasant to dedicate the South River church building on Sunday before the ISth of September, 1886. This church building survived through the intervening year* as a place of worship and inspiration to all those of that community. This new edifice, to be dedicated Sunday, is one of the finest rural churches of this or any section. Built by the hands, and through the efforts, of a congregation steeped in the tradition of their forebears, this South River Meth odist church will continue to write a brilliant history for that section of Davie county. Rev. W . K. Good son To Conduct Services Supplementary Readers To Be Used In Schools Curtis Price, Davie county school superintendent, announced today that supplementary readers for the first through the eighth grade would be used in the schools of Davie county for the first time this year.

SUPERIOR COURT CONVENES M ONDAY The August term of Davie Su perior court will convene Mon day, August 29, with Judge J. A. Rousseau of North Wilkesboro presiding.

Price Talks To Rotary On Schools All schools in Davie county will open at 9 p.m. Thursday, Sep tember 1, School Superintendent Curtis Price revealed in an ad dress before the local Rotary club Tuesday. As has been the cus-. tom in the past, the school hours for the first three weeks of school will be from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., Mr. Price delivered a very in- ^ formative address concerning the. educational system of Davie county. He revealed that the pub lic schools of North Carolina ran into over one-half billion dollar business annually. Mr. Price announced that there would be no change in the school bu* routing for thi* year, busea being routed within one mile ot a pupil’* home. This year for the first time the State is providing for the super vision of instructors within the school. These will be specially trained teacher* of high caliber, and will be approved by the N.C. Board of Public Inatructkm w i the County Board of EducatkM. Their duty will be to aMi*t' the teacher* in different pha*ea ot *chooI work, and will ba known as “helping teacher.” Davie coun ty, on the basi* of number ot teacher*, ha* been allotted one “helping teacher” for thia coming year. North Carolina, this year, will become the first State in the na tion to combine the State Health department with the State Board of Education in the effort to give better health service to the school child. Their duties will involve educating the pupils as to disease and health defects, and discover ing same. The correction and treatment of all disease and de fects will be left in the hands of the private physician. Also this year the individual school will be required to account for all school funds. This require ment places the school* on prac tically the same bdsia a* any or ganization handling public funds and requires the book* to be au dited and the statement published in a local newspaper. Mr. Price pointed out that thia practice would serve as protection for both the schools and the public. Schools in Davie county handle as much as $25,000 in local funds, stated Mr. Price. Mr. Price also touched briefly on the building program current- . ly in progress all over the coun ty. Most of the building program is well enough imder control so as to not interfere too seriously with school when it opens, stated Mr. Price. Mr. Price urged that each in dividual view the educational program as his or her program. Make the new teachers coming into the community feel at home and attracted to the community, so that they will want to return year after year. “Every man should be vitally interested in the educational program of Davie county and aid it in every way possible,” stated Mr. Price. P. J. Johnson announced plans for the Rotary picnic to be held . next week at Rich Park. This picnic supper will be given by the Rotary club for its members and the Rotary Annes, and will be held next Tuesday night at 6 p.m. at Rich Park. In case of rain it will be held at the Rotary hut' PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

How Employers Can ’ Help Their Employees Many potential beneficiaries under the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance program lose benefits; because they fail to filie for them! promptly. This is according to a| recent announcement by Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, manager of thej Winston-Salem, N. C., Social Se curity Administration Field Of fice. Mrs. Duffy stated that possibly the reason potential beneficiar ies failed to claim benefits due them was because they did not realize their rights, the Social Security Administration has no way of knowing when a worker retires either temporarily or per manently, she added. The employer has a valid in terest in seeing to it that his employees and their families re ceive the benefits for which they have shared in paying. To inform each of his employees of retire ment age that they can claim benefits for any months that they earn less than $15.00, would seem to be an integral part of good industrial relations. Retired workers are not the only persons losing benefits. Sur vivors of diceased workers have also lost benefits and are also losing benefits. Here again the employer may help prevent such loss by letting the survivor of a deceased employee, regardless of the latter’s age, know that he, cr she, should contact the nearest Social Security Field Office to file a claim immediately, or with in three months at most. A representative will be in Mocksville again on August 24 at the Courthouse, Second Floor, at 12:30 p.m., and in Cooleemee on the same date at the Erwin Cotton Mills Office at 11:00 a.m. The Winston-Salem Office of the So cial Security Administration is located at 437 Nissen Building. Office hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 itja.,. TB X-RAYS TO BE GIVEN Two health educators from the State Board of Health will arrive in this district August 29, to be gin an intensive educational cam paign in preparation for the mass X-ray survey for tuberculosis, which is scheduled for October and November. Miss Lula Belle Highsmith, senior health educa tor, will remain with us until Oc tober 24. Miss Annie Mildred Oak ley, Negro educator, will direct publicity among the Negro pop ulation. The survey will begin in mid October. Three X-ray machines mounted in trailers will be brought in. An exact schedule has not been made yet, but all three units will be used in one county at a time. The survey wil take two or three weeks in each.of . the three counlies,-Yad kin, Stokes and Davie. All X-rays during the survey will be free to the individual, the cost being shared by the Christmas seals campaign, county governments and State Board of Health. It is hoped that every person over 15 years of age will be X-rayed. Children Under Six On October 2 Not Eligible For Entry In School Superintendent Curtis Price stated today that children en tering the first grade of school in Davie County must have reached their sixth birthday on or before October 1. They must have been success fully vaccinated for diphtheria, smallpox and whooping cough.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1949 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE PAGES W H Y THE SPECIAL ELECTION WAS CANCELED Now that for the third time within the year petitions are be ing circulated in Davie under the same old “irresponsible sponsor* ship” seeking a special election on the questions of legal sales of beer and wine, it is interesting to recall the causes that impelled the county board of elections to rcscind its order in calling an election to be held on September 3, 1949. The board, relyiog on the hon esty and integrity of the several petitions submitted, and without carefully scrutinizing the same for error, issued and published an official call for a county-wide election to be held September 3, 1949, on the two questions here tofore mentioned. The pettiions carried the names of more than 1,000 alleged registered voters of Davie county—almost 300 more than the number required by law! After the election order had been issued and published, rep resentatives of Citizens Control Committee were granted permis sion to examine each of the pe titions as to it« legality. Upon inspection it was found that in many respects the statute govern ing the subject of special elec tions for such purposes had been wantonly and flagrantly violated. A vast number of signatures did not appear on the registration books of the county, despite tho fact that each alleged signer cer tified that he or she was a “duly registered voter.” In one instance the name of a child of tender years was ap pended. One voter of Mocksville precinct, apparently eager to make sure that his name would not be overlooked, signed one of tile petitions after someone else had entered his name for him. In repeated instances the names of persons appeared who had never even seen one of the instruments. In fact, several names were found that applied to persons who were not even in the State of North Carolina when the names were addedi One childless married couple, evidently bent on giving a 100 per cent family support, added its endorsement by signing “Mr, and Mrs........”. In another case the names of four members of one family ap peared, obviously written in by a single individual, and this in the face of a statute that specifically requires that the petition shall be “signed by 15 per cent of the reg istered voters of the county that voted for governor in the last general election.” In addition to the foregoing gi'oss irregularities, representa tives of Citizens Control Commit tee discovered that the names of all but 267 of the alleged sub scribers appeared on blank forms that were not even addressed to the board and contained no re quest for an election in Davie county. And yet, it was on this botched, bungled and lawless record that the taxpayers of the county were being urged by those sponsoring the election to “fork up”’ some $1,200 in cash to pay for the costs of their folly. Had the election been held and won by the so-called Drys, it would have been voided prompt ly by the court* as having been called without authority of law. The lx>ard, recognizing this fact, and realizing that its credulity had been imposed on and abused somewhat, discreetly and of its own motion voted unanimously to revoke its former order and accordingly cancel the election. The board should be given a spccial vote of thanks for retain ing in the public treasury some $1,200 that, otlierwise, would have ben squandered in a fool- )sh, fruitless and unauthorized venture. The Bell-wether of the Drys now states that 100 new petitions are in circulation with more be ing printed and that when these are finally submitted to the board they will bear the signatures of 3,000 registered voters of Davie county! It will be interesting also, at some future date, to ex amine and inspect these instru ments for further disclosures of shocking irregularities. Affairs of state are serious mat ters and are not to be treated with indifference, or levity of arro gance. Ignorance can be con doned, but arrogance never! Citizens Control Committee will remain on the allert for the de tection and exposure of any fur ther violations of the election laws and will continue its efforts to convince sensible citizens that control of beer sales by the State is preferable to the unregulated, controlled, illegal sales thereof by unauthorized and irresponsible persons, • CITIZENS CONTROL COMMITTEE To the Editor of the Mocksville Enterprise: I would like for ihe following to appear in your paper this week. In answer to the questionnaire appearing in last week’s issue of the Mocksville Enterprise, I would like to ask who are the Citizens Control Committee? Are you a group of Davie county citizens .who have children to be trans ported to and from school on school buses that you would like to set your stamp of approval on them being driven by people who drink intoxicating drinks or would you like for your sons and daughters to mari-y people who drink them, or are you an indi vidual or group of individuals who receive money from those wlio manufacture and sell wine and beer? Using your own figures, if tho money returned to Davie county in the form of return taxes amounted to $14,000 per year from the sale of beer and wine. I think it is time for the good people of Davie county to ask themselves the question, what was the sum paid out by Davie county people for that stuff, and how much bet* ter it would have been for that money to have been spent for something that was useful and that would have helped to make life worth living. Any sound thinking person knows it is wrong to seek to raise taxes from a source that tends to demoralize the thinking ability of the people who use it, and that in the end will send their souls to eternal ruin. To be sure, there is some vio lation of the prohibition laws; there is some violation of the law against murder, but I am not in favor of repealing it, are you? There is also violation of tho law against stealing, but I am not in favor of repealing it, either, nor I haven't the 1bu-<* id«? J’'iu are. — ' *■ •' To be sure, I will sign a peti tion asking for an election to out law beer and wine in Davie coun ty, and do everything I can to help to do away with the stuff. Most respectfully, T, G. CARTNER, R. I, Mocksville. profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or, What shall a man give in exchange for his soul? We will never gain enough to compare with one soul. FOSTER R, LOFLIN, Pastor of Mocksville Circuit. A gas stove in Denver must have a higher flue than one in Boston.

W H Y 1 AM AGAINST BEER AND WINE The first reason is because we are taught in Proverbs 20:1 wine is a mocker. I do not want to be a mocker. I would like to be a true follower of the Lord, We, the ministers of Davie county, are against beer and wine bccause it would lower the standard of ourj young people of today, who may be involved in it. .We would like to help to raise the standards by standing against the mocker and lielp tiie youth to be a blessing.

Entered at the Post Offlce at Mocksville, N. C., aa Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 THE JAYCEES AND STREAM POLLUTION (Winston-Salem Journal, Tuesday, August 23) The cause of stream control and the elimination and prevention of water pollution has gained a powerful ally. At its quarterly board meeting the North Carolina Junior Chamber of Commerce adopted a resolution pledging the Jaycees of the State to promote a State-wide campaign for the prevention of stream pollution. The significance of this action resides in the record of the Jaycees. While more active, dynamic and successful In some towns and cities, perhaps, than in others, Junior Chamber of Commerce organizations throughout the State and Nation have on the whole maintained an enviable rep utation for originating and getting behind worth-while movements and pushing until “something gives way.” Com posed of young, progressive, wlde-vlsloned and aggressive business, civic and professional men, these groups seldom If ever drop a project until It has been carried to success ful completion. The decision of the North Carolina Jaycees to get be hind the movement to prevent pollution of rivers and other water courses In the State, in our opllnon. Is a virtual assur ance that a sound stream control bill will be presented to the 1951 General Aæembly and that It will be backed by such strong support from leading citizens and civic groups throughout the State that would-be obstructionists will hesitate to oppose it. ^ * The movement to clean up our streams to the fullest extent practicable and prevent their further pollution by industrial and municipal wastes in In the Interest of public health and the conservation of stream life has thus far been a sporadic and desultory affair, owing to the fact it has lacked the strong, consistent civic groups In the cities and towns throughout the State. The action of the Jaycees, in addition to providing a nucleus of group leadership for this movement in various municipalities In North Carolina should serve also to In spire other civic groups to join in the fight for cleaner streams. The North Carolina Junior Chamber of Commerce de serves the highest commendation for taking this forward step In behalf of stream purity. Few causes In the State today are of higher importance to the over-all economy and general welfare. And with respect to the time factor, few causes of greater urgency.

Suggestions Given On Growing Alfalfa Alfalfa is one of the best hay crops for this section that we know anything about. On the av erage it will make four cuttings per season, and the cuttings will be approximately a ton par acre. Some people try to get a good stand and growth of alfalfa on land that is not suited for its production. This crop should be grown on fairly fertile, and well- drained land. It should not be sown on land that has grown red clover or sweet clover. There is a disease known as stem rot and will kill the young alfalfa plants and it will reduce the stand. The time is at hand to begin preparing tiie land for alfalfa. It is a good idea to begin by bog ging the fields immediately. If there are cover crops on the land now, bugging them tliis early will speed up the process of rotting the crops. Soil sample containers may be obtained from the county agent's office. If soil samples are taken immediately and sent to Raleigh, recommendations’ as to lime and fertilizer needs should be back to the farmers within the next two or three weeks. If the soil has not been limed and farnu'rs i)ave tiie lime, it is a' good idea to apply the lime on the land before it has been bogged the first time. Experiments show that better results are obtained by working lime into the top few inches of the soil, than by turn ing it under. If the soil has not t>een tested and no lime has been applied to the land you plan to sow in alfalfa, it will be safe to use an average of one and one- half tons of lime per acre and a very minimum amount of one ton per aero. If the soil has not been tested we recommend from five to six hundred pounds ot 2-12-12 fertlizer with borax per acre on average to good soils, and on poor soils we recommend 809 pounds of 2-12-12 fertilizer with borax. The lime that should be applied should not take tho place ot the above fertili*er recommendations. We recommend 25 to 30 pounds ot Kansas, or Utah or Oklalioma sped. Seed inoculation is neces sary. It is necessary that a good seedbed be prepared before sow ing the alfalfa. A cultipacker should be used in preparing the seedbed if one is available. Care should be taken not to cover the seed more than ono-fourth of an inch deep. Too many seed are buried so deeply that they will never come up. Some farmers use a cyclone seeder and others use. a grain drill. It is a good idea to cross-sow or drill the seed. We recommend that alfalfa be sown as soon after September 1 as the soil gets in condition. It further information in re gard to alfalfa is needed, farmers are advised to visit the county agent's office.

' How much does it cost? The bookmobile librarian of Davie county hears that question often as she stops in all parts of the county. Children especially think that anything so desirable and new may be beyond their reach because “it must cost something.” Public library service is free. That is the library does not charge anything for loaning books to any resident of the county. The library service is paid for from public funds, like the schools and the roads. Some people consider the pub lic library one of the best stretch ers of the taxpayers’ money. In Davie county last year, the coun ty provided $1 ,200, the town $600 and the State provided $2,882 to support the local county library. This enabled the county lo buy approximately 957 books, every one of which may be borrowed by anyone in the county. If a citizen of the county bor rows only 10 books per year, he will have had the use of at least $20-$25 worth of books. There «are approximately 5,474 books in the Davie county library as of July 1, 1949. The library board hopes the book collection can be increased to 8,000 books or about one-half book per capita within the next few years.
