C. <7 Now that the war is ovi r, it's timo to open the doors to the days ahead. They're going to be busy, exciting days. For one thing, the Telephone Company plans the greatest expansion program in its history in North Carolina ? aimed at meeting the telephone needs of a great state. It means providing telephones for all who have been wait ing for them. This is one of our first jobs! A greatly ex panded telephone program for our farmer friends is also in process. Expansion of long distance service is being scheduled too. It will include the installation of coaxial cables to handle more calls with speed and convenience for you, and provide more facilities for that exciting visual art ? television. A mass of construction is to be done and a new service to motor Vehicles is also in the offing. > i ?? Those are the high spots. They have been ideas on the drawing board. They will become realities as materials be come obtainable. There will be the marshalling of pros perity's Three M's ? Men, Money and Materials, the forces 'that broJfrht North Carolina and the Telephone Company to their present positions, that won them the friendship and confidence of Vie public. This expansion program calls for the expenditure of mil lions of dollars in North Carolina. And telephone people like the idea of putting money for expansion into North Carolina, contributing to the general welfare and prosperity of the state, through its men and women, its wage-earners, its families, its communities. Our optimism for the futire is based on the record of the past. North Carolina and the 3712 men and women of the (Telephone Company have grown up together, and watched ?ach other grow. Now, in the days ahead, the same friendly relationship will continue. The future beckons with a busy hand. ... Y.'A3&0iT, Mn.ir.g^r SOUTHERN 0ELL TELEPHONE AND TELEBRAPN COMPANY INCtlPOl ATI!

" laptists Study I ncok Of James ' On Wednesday evening at the j Hour of Power service at 7:30 ? ?' | clock, at First Baptist church v j study ot the Book of James cn the I renera! theme "Proving cf V ur Faith" was begun. The Proving of your faith in your attitude toward: "Word of God" ? 1:19-27: "Worshippers of Gid" - 2:1-13; "Work of God" ? :rees have died since 1937. On the treated area, from 1938 to the present time, the orchard j lias produced an average of 16.000 ' '.'iishels of apples a year, with a maximum production of 25.000 bushels. This year there were i j only about 15.00 bushels of fruit I; because of a late freeze. Certa n 1 j areas in the orchard are not fav orably located as t j air drainage 1 3 and hence are more subject to ! cold damage. j "This is one of the best demon- j strations in orchard management ? to be found in N irth Carolina and j ind ca:es just what should be done j i in many oicha:ds in the apple pro- -i | ciucing arras in the state." 2:14-26; "Test of the Tongue" ? j J; "Attitude toward the World" 4 and 5:1-12; "Test of Prayer" 5:13-19, are the tupics for study weekly.

One result of the war has been to make the people of this state more conscious than ever before of the great asset we have in our pulpwood resources, v . Now that complete victory has been won, the new usefulness of pulpwood will result in increased peacetime consumption of paper, rayon, plastics and many other prod ucts of pulpwood. Part of our vast forest heritage, pulpwood ? a basic American industry? will continue to serve the nation in peace, as it did in war. Make the Most of this Asset Intelligent cutting of pulpwood pays big dividends. By adequate planting PROPER THINNING MAKES TREES and selective cutting even a small farm woodland can yield a valuable crop of pulpwood periodically. It is a crop which needs only a little care and can be harvested at any convenient time. It is another cash crop. Consult your nearest district forester, f PREVENT FOREST FIRES Fires kill trees for present and future needs and make land un productive. Everybody lose* and nobody profits when forests burn.
