We’re used is thinking of sum mer vacation in terms of the chil dren. School’s out and they’re making the most of it. We Ameri cans seem to concentrate on mak ing sure that they have the right kind of summer. But what about Father? Outside of ehauffeuring the kids to the swimming hole and playing life guard, explaining his torical monuments on the motor* tour, and cutting wood for the pic nic fire, is he having a vacation? i He’s a pretty important guy. His summer vacation should be more than just two weeks away from the job. Industrial health ex perts tell us that his vacation can make or break the year ahead for him. That’s why more and more business firms insist on his taking at least two weeks off. And it is true that some men have to be al most pushed out of the office. If he doesn’t build up a reservoir of good health, now we may all be in trouble. Father, the Forgotten Man in too many households, is one of the nation’s biggest health problems. Statistics show that there is more serious illness among middle-aged men than among women. Men in their middle years have more tu berculosis than any other group in the population. Yet we know that a healthy, well nourished person can usually fight TB germs to a standstill. If Father isn’t building up his health this summer, isn’t eating right, or getting enough sleep, rest, and recreation, the family can re solve to do something about it be fore the summer is over. One im portant step is to find out what the words “rest” and “recreation” mean to him. }Je may not enjoy j doing some of the things Tie feels RUSE HORSE SENSE I 1 ?| WITH VOUR BOWER MOWER/ [ !=S§ he “ought to do” for the children. A few adjustments can be made. Dad may be surprised when his wishes and his health are taken in to consideration in the family plans. But don’t worry. He’ll be able to stand the strain. v I " ' Range Shelters Need To Be Taken Care Os t North Carolina poultrymen use thousands of portable range shel ters each year. Roy S. Dearstyne, State College Poultry Specialist, says that the life of these shel ters is relatively short. 'This is due to the heavy wear and tear the shelters have to take during the year.

FIREMEN CALLED TWICE Edenton firemen were called out twice during the week, the first call orcuring Saturday night about 10:30 o’clock when a ear belonging to Laurence Collins caught fire in' front of Chowan Hospital. The second call came early Monday night when an oil stove flared up in a house on Baer’s Lime, next to the colored high school. Little damage wag done in both instances. IN MKMORI \M In loving memory of my dear husband, James 11. Morgan, who passed away one year ago, Au gust 20, 1955. Little did I know when at dawn that morning That you were passing away. The end was sudden: the shock severe, To part with one 1 loved so dear. My heart is heavy thinking of you: Remembering how you died, To know I was with you And to think I could not say good bye before you closed your eyes. I am praying that some day We can meet in Heaven Where there’ll be no more sorrow No more goodbyes.
