Louisburg Lions Hear W. D. Morton Willard Morton of Louisburg, a National Guard staff member in the Raleigh headquarters, spoke to the Louisburg Lions Club Tuesday night and showed slides on Vietnam. The slides showed scenes of combat in Vietnam and revealed some of the ruins around Saigon. Tanks, planes and trenches for defense were also de picted in the films. Much of the presentation dealth with the people of the Southeast Aisian Country showing crowded and uninviting homes and humble busi nesses. It showed that Chinese is the predominant race in Vietnam but that it is the French who control the wealth. One interesting ^spect of the Mor ton presentation was the coverage of the ever-popular motor scooter as a means of transportation in Vietnam. One announcement made to the club disclosed the group will visit Lake Waccamaw sometime in April.

He also remarked that the current FCC proposal to ban cigarette advertis ing on radio and television "could have a damaging effect on the tobacco (MkMby . There is apparent growing concern among a number of lawmakers over the advisability of taxing tobacco. Indications are that tobacco interests may have enough strength in the legis lature to prevent such a tax. Some are proposing other tax sources as a means of preventing the tobacco tax. Speed has suggested bottled drinks and there is some support being mustered in this area, according to reports. ing to stop at stop sign; William Wesley Freeman, w/m/46, failing to stop at stop sign; Ethel Tippett Eatman, ex ceeding safe speed; Jerry Garland War ren, improper equipment; Darretl Mau rice Tant, w/m/17, failing to reduce speed to avoid accident; George Haley King, w/m/20, stop sign Violation; Martha King Burrell, c/f/36, driving on left side of highway.

What an individual thinks or feels as success (as an acceptable goal) is unique with him. In our experience we have found that each individual has a different means of and attitude toward what constitutes success. Therefore, a human being cannot be typified or classified. ?

LOUISBURG MOTORS 60S Harth Bicktftt Blvd. Louisb'urg, N. C. oe.i.r ucen.. no 2791 Ports Of Call By Edward H. Sims This is a good timejof year to visit South Africa or cer tain other African countries on the southern tip of the continent. It is now summer there and flowers are in full bloom and swimming to be enjoyed everywhere. It is hot in the jungle and more northerly sections of South Africa, and one must be prepared for that if he goes to see wild animals. It is also true that vision is more limited because of leaves, and this makes it a bit more dangerous . in areas where there is big game. Elephants are not as easy to recognize as one might imagine -even in winter when some of the foliage is off the trees. 1 was in Druger Na tional Park about this time a year ago and on several oc casions I was startled to see how close one can be to a moving elephant and not see it. They are so big they al most appear to be rocks or some big dark stationary ob ject, for they move ever so slowly, eating grass, etc. and the brush hides all but the top of their bodies and often you don't see the moving trunk. Africa is delightful' coun try -the southern part that is- and the flowers and birds and landscape are interesting to Americans, all being uni quely African. One can mountain-climb, swim in the Indian or Atlantic oceans, visit native settlements, go on camera safaris and even get in some good shopping at Jo hannesburg, Capetown or Durban. Capetown is perfect at this time of year though in a few months one will no longer be able to swim; swimming will continue at Durban almost year-round. And the Indian Ocean is calmer than the At lantic and many prefer it-for the water is also warmer. If one is looking for skins, they can be bought in Jo hannesburg and Pretoria, and in the northern part of the country; impala skins are about as cheap as can be found, and are among the most beautiful. Wallcoverings Add Creative Touch To Furniture, Accessories Amid *11 the new things in home decorating these days, one of the mo sfire freshing . . . and certainly one of the most colorful new ideas ... is the increased usage of wall coverings. Not only are walls taking on a new life with intensified colors, but fast idious home makers are put ting colorful wallcoverings on everything but the kitchen sink. For example, creative housewives can turn an or dinary bedroom into a work of art simply by applying wallcoverings to such furnish ings as dressers, clothes ham pers, closet doors, shelves, hat boxes and mirror frames. A plain waste gasket can be come a kaleidoscope of colors with the new look of a strip ed or floral wallcovering. Wallcoverings by United/ DeSoto are particularly adap table to applying to surface* other than walls because they are prepasted for ease of In stallation; washable (which makes them expecially handy near where cosmetics and grooming aids are used); and most are strippable (remov able in full width strips in seconds should you want to When one deals with leo pard and tiger skins, however, most of this reflects the worst practices, and our women would be striking a blow for conservation if they created no demand for either. change the decorating scheme). Applying the prepasted wallcoverings to furniture and accessories is a breeze. The only equipment you need is a pair of scissors, a basin of water,- a razor blade and a sponge. First, you measure the wallcoverings to the proper length and width as you would measure wrapping paper for a gift. Then trim the wallcovering to size. Next, activate the paste on the prepasted wallcovering by completely submerging it in the basin 'of water for the recommended time. Remove the wallcovering from1, the water r and place it carefully on the surface, making cer tain that the pattern is pro perly aligned (i.e. that stripes run parallel or perpendicular to the floor and ceiling.) Then, make sure that there are no creaaes or bubbles in the covering and smooth out with a damp sponge. If you are unable to get rid of all the air bubbles, prick them with a pin and smooth. They'll dis appear. On drawers and doors, you can trim off uniMeded edges with a razor blade after they are dry. Very carefully, so you don't mar the wood, make a cut where you wish the covering to end and strip away the unwanted section. United/ DeSoto prepasted wallcoverings are available at most dealers in a wide variety of collors and patterns. Each roll carries a specific instruc tion sheet on how to apply. Freedom of speech does not mean much to a man who is afraid to express himself. FARM BUREAU LIFE INSURANCE Fire Crop Hail Farmowners Auto Farmer's Liability Blue Cross Hospital Plans L. C.
