I’d like to know why, the Yellow Fly
Is such a hungry bug.
He lights and bites with all his might
As if he hasn’t dug
In ten other people, before me,
Then vanishes out of' sight.
Never heard of a yellow i
fly l&ntil I was grown. The I
ban of our lives When we
were j children was mosqui
toes* * and yellow jackets.
Now Fan wondering if yel
low? Jackets and yellow flies
are the same bug. Seems to
me tjiere ought to be some
thirqfe. to fight them. How
ever, to date I know of no
spr«& which will discourage
this? ijr it ter.
These hot days I love, but
I feel so sorry for sick
folks who must lie still and
I know many of thetn do hot
have air conditioning or
. fatis. If any of you
iharve air conditioning in
your“homes and have an ex
tra fttn you’re not using, try
to find someone who could
use it. It will not take
much looking around.
It’s getting watermelon
and cantaloupe time in Cho-
Wah -County again and we
had; one of the first ones for
breafefast, a gift to Buff from
IHtli?;; Sirius Amanda Bunch
of the Rocky Hock section.
It was one of the most de
licicus cantaloupes I have
ever eaten, as, of course, is
everything grown in Chowan
County.
The Shoafs and their child
ren spent several days last
week visiting in the western
part of North Carolina and
while there they took the
children to Blowing Rock
and the Tweetsie Railroad.
Jane tells me that their trip
on the railroad was as much
fun for the groWn-ups as
the children and that the
train itself really smells
“like a train.” Next time
we’re up that 'way. I’ll sure
ly take a ride on that train.
Another thing I enjoyed
hfearing and reading about
from that mountain area is
tuJ>ock on Pioneer Comforts
afid Xitchen Remedies, with
Qldtimey recipes and medi
oines made from herbs. One
it;? particular was a recipe
4<r “After Bath , Itch.” It
sMls us to add a cup of vine
to our bath water (also
}ibd for yellow fly bites)-..
Here’s a good one for our
qwmy townsmen with bald
Wmk: Rub the scalp with
grapevine sap. Or rub the
scalp with castor oil, then
cover with hot, wet towels.
Last but not least, to in
crease one’s physical powers,
carry Sampson Snake Root
in your pocket. Thanks, Jane!
For you who wish for'
rain, it’ll be here soon. We
go on vacation to the beach
pnd Buff says the “mon
soons” will start then.
Last week I told you that
Alice Malone had taken to
camel riding on her trip to
the Near East. Well, with
plane rides at a premium,
Harvest a new high with
the ULLISTON 1500
Peanut Combine, the
t . .
spectacular engineering
triumph that will bring
in the greatest profits
in peanut harvesting
history.

Remember these hot, dry
’■dtfys, to put water outside
fbi the birds. I read that
birds like “moving water.”
It suggested that you take a
large can and punch a tiny
hole in the bottom and
hang it on a tree limb and
let the water drip in a shal
low container. I tried this

to the Metho

Colony community are Mr.

Mr. and Mrs. “Shorty” Park
crson, who have come here
to retire. Nice people. You
ought to know them.
Just got reminded that
years are rolling by fast. I
had some visitors from Eliza
beth City ' this week, good,
old friends, one of which, I
knew when she was a child
and now in turn, she has
small children. Still, I don’t
feel much older than I did
that many years ago. It sure
was nice to have them visit
us, however.
Anyone have any easy
summer recipes? I would
appreciate your sending them
to me.
Glimpses:
Just happened to see Ker
mit Layton with some sort
of a contraption on a ladder,
near the Cupola House, Wed
nesday morning, so curiosity
got the best of me and 1
found out that it was a sort
of camera. It seems that
M>'. and Mrs. Edgar Cheat
ham, Jr., off Charlotte, are
Here getting a series of film
on outstanding historical
places in Edenton and at
that time were on the roof
of the Goodyear building
getting some pictures of the
Cupola House: I talked with
Mi. Creatham, who, by the
way, is instructor of history
in the Charlotte High School.
Mr. Cheatham is making a
series of films, in color, on
N. C. history, which will be
available for showing every
■where. • Aren’t you proud to
be a part of this?
