Student Program
The commencement program at North
iWilkesboro high school on Tuesday night
"was something new and unique in the way
of high school commencements.
Instead of having an out-of-town
speaker to exhort the principles of living
to the graduates, the seniors did the talk
ing and did an excellent job.
And why not? It was their night. It i
was their graduation from high school and
the large crowd was there in their honor.
It must have been very gratifying to the
parents, relatives and friends of the mem
bers of the graduating class to see and hear
them carry out their program so well.
The program was original and the talks
made by the seniors represented their own
conclusions. That is more than can be
said for many commencement speakers,
who are prone to borrow ideas from some
writer or quote a lot of poetry.
The entire program was carried out well
and the audience responded to each num
ber with genuine applause and approval.
The high school band opened the pro
gram and many favorable comments have
been made about that organization which
is in its first year. The high school band,

It consamen would lilrink an eoEtra glass
of millc evefy day daring June, more than
cne billion jnore quarts would be consum
ed as fluid'milk which brings the farmer
his'his^est price.
It is estimated that one out of every 16
families in the country is dependent for
its livelihood on the milk from 25 million
cows, according to tiie Milk Industry Foun
dation, which says this fact alone war
rants a determined all-industry effort
The milk distrSiutorg will cooperate
with food, drug, and vaii^ stfwes, hotels
and restaurants, civi(^il^«^ a»d schools,
railroads, bus and ai^i^'Tiiias and milk
producers to remind tiie consume , tiiat
the Milky Y/ay is the American Way.
Window displays, advertising posters,
fountain placards, pennants, truck banners
and leaflets will feature milk. New “made-
with milk” drinks will be advertised by
soda fountains. Activities will benefit
dairy products, including ice cream, but
ter and cheese.

Business and Farming^
On Wednesday night a group otf repre
sentative farmers, business men and others
gathered in a farmer-business man ban
quet, which was a very delightful affair.
The gathering was held for the purpose
of promoting goodwill and cooperation
between business men and farmers and in
order that business men might obtain a
more comprehensive understanding of the
farmer’s problems.
It is now recognized by all economic au
thorities that the welfare of one is depen
dent upon the welfare of the others. If
farmers cannot prosper business men can
not attain any appreciable measure of suc
cess. If business cannot operate success
fully and help provide a market for farm
products farmers cannot succeed.
B''th have had difficult tasks in making
ends meet and if there is not close fellow
ship and cooperation the task is made far
more exasperating.
E>very day in every way the bu.siness of
making a living becomes more complex.
No longer can one community or one class
ipf people long prosper at the expense of
others.
At the banquet one speaker related in
cidents of his boyhood days when he would
drive the wagon to town with some pro
ducts to sell and then he had the idea that
those who did the buying were going to
pay just as little as possible for what he
had to sell and would try to cheat him out
of it if possible.
He said that he had learned that was a
mistaken idea and that business, generally
speaking, does as much for the farm as is
consistent with good business practices.
The farmer-business man banquet idea
is sound. We hope that others will be
held at regular intervals.
June Milk Month
With estimates indicating that the 1940
U. S. Milk production may reach new
highs, milk distributors are cooperating
with other branches pf the dairy industry
and drug, food and variety stores on June
Dairy Month, a widespread promotional
drive to increase consumption of milk and
dairy products.
Milk is the largest single source of farm
income in the U. S. and last year it contri
buted $lf$ii5,000,000 in cash to the far-
ja«r tha Milk Industry Foundation,
'^ea 26 million bottles of fresh milk
Socialized Medicine
Many are the proposed measures which
have been placed before congress, which,
if enacted into law, would provide some
kind of conglomeration of socialized medi
cal services.
Many American people, who for some
reason or for no reason at all are becom
ing so soft that they want to look to the
government for every necessity of life,
will be better off if they turn a cold shoul
der to many so-called social reforms which
are being suggested.
Such measures lead into a state of so
cialism and individualism goes out the win
dow. Such a trend would eventually find
ourselves paying our wages to the govern
ment and politicians would provide some
kind of services with that part of the tax
es which would not be gobbled up in poli
tical waste.
‘Nation’s Business” recently published a
picture with an article. The picture show
ed an impatient physician talking to an
elderly lady and the article beneath the
picture was as follows:
“This doctor canlt sit listening to your
tale of woe. He’s not a private physician.
“He works for the government, not you.
You’re just one of the people assigned to
him by the political overseer. Ten more
of you are in the waiting room, with twen
ty or thirty to come.
“You can’t expect tim,e and symps^hy
under conditions like that.
“So snap into it, comrade! Briefly now,
what seems to be the trouble?
“That’s socialized medicine, run by poli
ticians and paid for by payroll taxes.
“Compare it with the traditional Ameri
can system of private medicine, in which
the individual freely selects and consults
the doctor in an atmosphere of intimate
and friendly confidence.
“Private medicine has done a magnifi
cent work in the United States. Our aver
age life expectancy is the highest in the
world. Serious diseases are under increas
ing control. Infant and maternal mortali
ty rates are lower than ever.
“But this does not interest those who
want to set up socialized medicine. Law
after law is presented to the U- S. Con
gress and State Assemblies to put the rela
tions between doctors and patients under
political control.
“Unless Americans want to sign up for
all time they should reject these Govern
ment Health legisla/tive proposals flatly,
without delay.”

Dairy Herd Improved
Throufrh DHIA Work
Borrowed Comment
“The proof Is in the milk, but-'
terfat, and feed cost,” para
phrased John A. Arey, Extension
dairy specialist of N. C. State
College, in citing an example of
the economic value of proper care
and good feeding of vbe dairy
herd. He illustrated with records
of Improvement made hy the Cas
well Training School Holstein
herd at Kinston since It started
Dairy Herd Improvement Associ
ation work In 1935.
“This herd,’’ Arey declared,
baa nearly doubled its milk pro
duction and butterfat records, and
at the same time has reduced its
feed cost i^r 100 pounds of milk
by 62 centt During the five years
that the Caswell Training School
herd has been on test, there has
been little change In its make-up.
There were 44 cows in the herd
In 1935; there are 47 co»ws now.
The cows that have been cull
ed out were replaced by heifers
grown on the farm. Although
good bulls have been used, most
of the' Increase in production
should be created to better care
and feed rather than to the in
troduction of better cows.”
Here are the records the Exten
sion specialist used In showing
the importance of good care and
feed in economical milk produc
tion: During 1935 the 44 cows
in the school herd produced an
average of 6,980 pounds of milk,
or a total of 307,120 pounds, at
a feed cost of 31-47 per 100
pounds of milk, or a total of $4,-
514 for feed.
During 1939 the herd of 4 7
cows, many of which were in the
herd during 1935, produced an
average of 12,396 pounds of
milk, or a total of 582,612
pounds, at an average feed cost
of 85 cents per 100 pounds of
milk. The total feed cost was
$4,952.
The butterfat average per cow
increased from 219 to 4 0 3
pounds.
The best safeguard against tn-
herculosis is to maintain resist-
ence through eating proper foods
and getting sufficient rest.

REFUGEES AS WAR MATERIAL
(Lenoir News-Topic)
K is generally realized by this time that
the Nazi war machine has) no inhibitions
about war methods and weapons. It seems
deliberately to make terror itself a wea
pon, scaring the non-military population
of invaded countries into submission or
flight by the very horror of its burning,
bombing and killings.
But there is an additional technique, ap-l
parently deliberate, which goes beyond
this in cunning. The panic-stricken popu
lations scared from their homes by fear of
death and driven into the highways, as the
armed invasion proceeds, seem to be used
purposedly to impede the armies of the
countries invaded. News reports have
told time after time of roads and bridges
so crowded with masses of old men, women
and children that the defense troops could
not get through, or maneuver, in order to
fight the invaders or to save the areas
not yet overtiin.
