,HE GLEANER GRAHAM, N. < ., JAN. 4, 1334. Local News. ?Graham Public School opeued Monday?au eveu start with the Kew Vear. ?The Couiily Oomiuissioner. were m sessiou Tuesday. Lilij. else tliau routiue business was ai teuded to. ? ?The weather service inti mated there might be suow in the central part of the Stale yestoi day. It was cold enough am looked like snow, but none fell. ?Quincy Smith of near Kins ton is speudiug a few days her with Phil S. Dixou and other liieiids. It is at Mr. Smith's where the fox huuters from thi com ill unity rendezvous when they join the chase in his section .Maybe Mr. Smith don't know it, lint the boys around here win have enjoyed his hospitality think a lot of him and speak well ol hiiu. ?Here we are, ail of us, start ing a usw year. Let's make the inost of it and the best ot it. It we will, we can so live and de port ourselves that, when the curtain of lime drops on '34, t here will not Ire so many regrets. We conclude iilis preachment with enjoining the observance of the Golden liuie ? "Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do you eveu so to them." ?uunug ine uoiiuay season nearly all sorts of weather, some to tit almost every month so far, ha iieen handed out. And, by the way, it's au old saying that the lirst twelve days of January are an index to the twelve months of the year. Mind you, that s only a "saying" which never, so far as known, came true. And, again, so far this winter there has heen no auow, except on two uigbts, according to reports, some fell along with the rain. But there is no special grief 011 that score. Graham Postoffice Receipts for 1933 Show Increase. Data given by Post master A.Ross Henderson show that Graham postoffice receipts for 1933 were $10,036.91, or $186.45 more than tor the year 1932. For the quar ter eliding Ueceutber 31, 1933, the receipts were $3,1)17.35 or $148.25 leas than for the corresponding 1932 quarter. The drop for the last 1933 quai ter is believed to have come about on account of the change in post age rates. It appears that m my other offices were similarly affect ed. In the first quarter of 1933 1 there was a big slump in posiot hce receipts, while the gains in the second and third quarters weie good and saved the uay. in 1932 receipts lor the third quarter were lowest, while in 1933 they were lowest 111 the lirst quarter, In each ot these years lue receipts were hlgliest in the fourth quarter. Big Increase in Marriage Licenses for 1933. The records in the office of Reg ister of Deeds, J. G. Tiugen, show tlmt lie issued 374 marriage li crnses iu 1933, 229 more than iu 1932. in December Iheie were issued 87?61 to whites and 26 lo colored, or 5(J more than iu 1932. Perhaps two factors contribuled lo llie large iucrease?the last Legislature abolished the health examination requirement, on ac count of which many couples weut to adjoining states to secure iiceuse. Another factor was the depres sion and lots of people unem ployed. To what extern either of these operated to make the big difference it would be hard to de termine. Timely Farm Questions Answered At .State College Question?Can skim rrilk or butter milk be substituted for anyothm ingredient in the poultry mash? Answer?A'es. Skim milk clabbe', or buttermilk make a good sub stitute for dried milk, meat m -al or fish meal. Four and one-half gallons can be used as a sub - stitute for all milk products, mea meal and fish meal in the m.is'i for 100 hens. The success of this substitution, will depend d pend upon the regularity o f feeling. Unless th to is an am ple supi4y for eontinous feed! ;g of the skim milk o- b 'ttermi no substitution should be made. PERSONAL Miss Elizabeth Byrd spent the holidays ai her home in llamlet.
