Money-Making Scheme
l Tar Heel 4-H Club mem
bers are very creative when
it comes to thinking of ways
to earn money for the club
treasury. For example, [4-
H’ers in Madison County de
cided to sell hamburgers, hot
dogs and coffee at a com
mercial tomato packing shed
ih Marshall three evehings a
week.
The benefits are. two-fold.
“Not only are the club mem
bers earning money, they are
also meeting many Madison
County, people,” Madge Guf
fey, assistant home eco
nomics extension agent, notes.
There’s A Better Way
“I’ll never put another fig
in a jar—without peeling it
first.” This was the reac

Edenton Route 1, after at
tending a food conservation
demonstration at Lake Mat
tamuskeet.
In fact, Mrs. Boswell was
so favorably impressed by
the qualify of the preserved

I am concerned about a publication that
crossed piy desk recently. . “Information
Bulletin 7*!, Committee of Youth Organiza
tions of the USSR, 7-1965, Bogan Khmelnit
sky is the title of the material and was
shoWn to me by a student in this school.
In reading this material I find my country
labeled as an aggressor in several references.
I know this to be false but 1 wonder about
its effect, upon my pupils.
As the instructional leader of a public
school I do not fear truth, but it is difficult
locally to combat such material. I am re
assured by the statements of the owner of
this publication (a fifth grade boy) that this
is so much “stuff;’-’ however, I would appre
ciate your reaction.

Dear, Mr. R.:
The Department of State is indeed aware
of the nature of Soviet propaganda mail
ings. At ope time the government attempt
ed to screen Soviet propaganda material
being mailed to American . citizens from
abroad, releasing it to the addressee only
when he specified that he wished to receive
it. This program, however, was found by
the U. S. Supreme Court to be in conflict
with the Constitution and has been discon
tinued. L
Another approach to this problem can be
undertaken by the parents, schools and oth
er local community organizations. By main
interested homemakers'.
“We believe thrftj' ‘‘Watfld
be a market for good qual
ity fig preserves," Mrs. Mary
G. Cowper, home economics
extension agent, notes. “So
our homemakers are anxious
to learn better conservation
techniques.”
taining high standards of education and
permitting the free flow of information and
Views on various sides of any given subject,
we can assure that no single distorted view
will prefail. I am sure that schools, par
ents, and local community leaders are do
ing their part to provide guidance to chil
dren who receive Soviet propaganda mail
ings of the sort you describe, guidance
which will permit them to put this infor
mation into the proper perspective.
I would like to apply for an international
driver’s license and n umber plates. Please
send me the necessary forms and informa
tion available.

Keeping Records Pays Off
“Keeping records on fam
ily spending has paid off for
us,” says Mrs. Roy Bell, Jr.,
Kings Mountain Route 2.
Before we kept accounts,
our money was going, but
we didn’t seem to be get
ting anywhere, Mrs. Bell
relates. Then the family
agreed to make a simple
spending plan and to keep a
record of all the money we
spent for family living.
At present, the Bells have
been able to pay all out
standing debts and have
saved enough to buy a lot
when land becomes avail
able.
The Bells have learned
that careful planning and
record keeping are needed if
they are to reach their fam
ily goals, Thelma E. Mc-
