Realising Her Dream )
Agnes Matthis, senior 4-H Club
member of the Spring Creek High
School in Madison County, is at
last going to realize a dream —a
college education. And what has |
made it possible for this to comej
true?
Home Demonstration > Agent'
Jamie M. Ramsey says that Ag-,
nes has been planning for h col-i
lege education all through high
school. She was the leading.
member of the 4-H poultry chain 1
four years ago when she first car
ried this project. Each year she
has made progress by adding 100
chicks to it —at the present time
she has over 400 laying pullets. '

According to American Institute of L aundering,
inferior wash-n-wear garments may be made with certain
resin finishes that absorb chlorine from hypochlorite
bleach, commonly used. This £an’t rinse out and heat
from ironing creates an acid which yellows or destroys
the fabric.

I With the encouragement of her
parents Agnes has been able to
save enough money to enable her
to enter f college this fall .and
'she says she owes it all to her
i “4-H Club work and the assist
! attce from 4-H leaders”.
4-H Newsletter
' Four-H Club members in Dur-,
ham County are beginning a new
project according to reports from .
Mrs. Carolyn Schultz, assistant [
homg agent. Tney’re publishing
a monthly newsletter for all club
members—and they’re calling it
the “Lucky Leaves.”
Durham County, since consoli
dation, has only two high schools;
consequently, they are large and i

have many activities. Because of
this clifb 'members requested the
newsletter to inform them of 4-H
activities.
! Mrs. Shultz says that the pro-:
ject has been turned, over com
pletely to the 4-H’ers, with the]
assistant farm and home agents
acting as advisors. It is hoped!
that the newsletter will make 4-H
Club work more a part of the
school activities and provide ex- 1
perience for many club members
i w ho will be given an opportunity
to work on the paper.- The edi-
I tors say, “The more 4-H’ers we
■ can use the better our paper will
be.”
Always Something To Learn
“Freeze for Goodness Sake”,
was the subject of study for .
Stokes'County home demonstra
tion club members recently. Mrs.
Tom Preston, Pine Hall, s aid af
ter the demonstration, “That was
the most helpful demonstration
we’ve had.”
Mrs. G. D. Watkins, Lawson
ville club, remarked, “I started
to miss the club meeting because
I was so tired,‘had a lot of work,
to do, and the weather was bad. |
But I got out my yearbook and <
looked to see what demonstra-1
tion the agent would give, and <
when I saw it was on freezing, IJ
knew I- had to go. I like to freeze,
and I always feel that there’s
something I can learn.”
Home Agent Mrs. Betty D.
Friddle indicated that the overall
response and comments from club
women was a good indication that
they learned a great deal about
freezing.
Room Improvement
There has certainly been at
least one busy 4-H Club girl in
Pender County, according to,
Frances H. Bostic, assistant home
demonstration agent. And she is
Jacqueline Gurganious, 4-H mem
ber from Penderlea School.
Jacqueline has been working
on her room improvement pro-1
ject, and with the help of her
father she has already lowered
the ceiling in her room. Mrs.
Bosic has helped with the color
schemes and other plans, while I
Jacqueline is beginning work on
plans for repainting the room.
Then she hopes to make curtains
and bedspread to match.

Was a dinner given honoring the
County Commissioners. Mrs. A.

well-fed group.

SENATOR
SAM ERVIN
☆ SAYS *
j Washington One of the most
| impressive manifestations of the
, loyalty of North Carolinians to
their friends is the way they come
to Washington to see a new Sena
tor take his oath of office.
Loyalty
The demonstration of this loy
alty was again obvious in connec
, tion with Senator B. Everett Jor
dan’s “swearing in” here in the
, Senate. North Carolinians took
virtually all of the gallery space.
The reception overflowed the
committee room. Impressed by a
long series of occasions pf this na
ture, tjie Secretary of the Senate
said to me that he had observed
that more North Carolina .people'
attend the oath-taking than is
true of any other States. As a
consequence of this display of loy
j alty on the part of friends and
neighbors, Tarheels have a mo
nopoly on the Capitol for a day.
My feeling is that the actual
oath-taking ceremony should be
I more formal and that all Senators
should take time to attend a cere
mony of this type. Actually, the
affair is over so quickly that
spectators in the gallery are little
more than seated before the oath
is given and the name signed in-
I to the Senate book.
Three Senators
June 11, 1958, will end the
fourth year that I have had the
honor of sitting in the Senate
from North Carolina. During
that time I have had the pleas
ure of working closely with three
Senators, Alton A. Lennon, W.
Kerr Scott and now B. Everett
Ijordan. A characteristic of
j North Carolina Senators is that
J they work together as a team, and
it is most unusual when legisla
tive disagreement of any conse
| quence develops. This is not true
of many States.
Labor Union Reform
The Senate Labor Subcommit
tee, under the Chairmanship of
Senator Kennedy, has been hold
i ing daily sessions to prepare a la
bor-management reform bill.
I There is a strong insistence in the
Senate for action this session on
some legislation to correct abus
’es as discovered by the McClel
lan Committee. A bill has been
promised by the Committee for
debate and action before adjourn
ment.
I opposed the earlier attempts
to write a labor bill on the Sen
' ate Floor. This was not du« to
the merits of the amendments but
to my conviction that the Senate
should slot bypass committee pro
cedures.
Orderly Manner
The orderly procedure now be
ing followed is the only satis
factory way to attain a construc
tive bill. All sides of the issue
have been given an opportunity
to be heard and to present their
points of view. The hearings
serve to produce a much needed
record for study by the Congress
and public. Labor-management
relations is a very complex field
in which to legislate. No wise
bill can come except by careful
analysis.
The McClellan Committee, the
so-called Senate Rackets Commit
tee, has uncovered shocking evi
dence of corruption among some
union leaders and some manage
ment. Servicq on this Commit
tee has required an enormous
amount of time, but the work has
been of great significance. The
Committee’s findings will aid in
constructive legislation to prevent
these abuses in the future.

barren.” (James 2:20). Faith in
God engenders courage; courage,
in turn, calls for action; therefore
there can be no true faith with
out action. If we honestly be
lieve that God desires us to take
certain course, then we should
take that course without hesita
tion. It is this active brand of
faith that is really important in
the eyes of God. Caleb was per
mitted to see the Promised Land
“because he has a different spir
it” (Numbers 14:24). All the oth
er Israelites literally died in
their tracks; they were afraid and
confused; they didn’t want to go
forward, and they couldn’t go
back. They stagnated.
The test of God’s people is
whether they go forward. The
test is not “Do they believe in
God?” but “Do they do the
will of God?” These days in
which we live now are trying
times. Our civilization stands on
the threshold of a great new era.
Scientific discoveries and techno
logical developments during the
past few years have given us the
promise of a new and glorious
day for all mankind, but at the
same time this same civilization
of ours groans and falters under
the impact of tensions and fru
strations, fears a'nd anxieties. We
are staggering under a fearsome
load international, economic
unrest, cold wars and feverish
arms and munitions races; juve-
