A Country Boy's Creed "l believe the country, which God made, is more beautiful than the city, which man made; that life ont of doors and in touch with the earth is the natural life of man. I believe that woik 1 work wherever I find it, but that work with nature is more in [spiring than work with the most Intricate machinery. I believe that the dignity of labor depends not on what you do ibut on how [you do it; that my success de pends, not on my location, but on myself; not upon my dreams, but upon awhat I actually do; not upon my luck, Ibut upon my pluck. I believe In working when [you work, playing when you play, and in giving and demand ing a square deal in every act of life," 1 A Country Girl's Creed "I am glad that I live in the country. I love its beauty and its spirit. I believe I can share in' this beauty around me, and I want to express it in my own life as naturally and happily as the wild rose blooms by the road side, I believe I can have a part in the courageous spirit of the country, with which I, too, can face the hard things of life with gladness. I believe there is much I can do in my country home.. Through studying the best way to do my everyday work I can find joy in oommon tasks done well.. Through living comradeship I can help bripg into my home the hap piness and peace that are always so near us in God's out of door world. I believe my love and loyalty for my country home should reach out in service t<5 that larger home that we call our neighborhood. I would have all that I think and say and do to help to unite county people near and far in that great king dom of love for neighbors which the Master came to establish He who knew and bared for country ways and country folks." National 4-H Creed I believe in boys' and girls' club work for the opportunity it will' give me to become a useful citizen. ?I believe in the training of my head for the power it will give me to think, to plan, and to rea son. I believe in the training of my heart for the nobleness it will give me to become kind, sympa thetic, and true. I believe in the training of my Hands for the dignity it will give me to be helpful, useful, and skilful. 1 I believe in the training of my health for the strength it will give me to enjoy life, resist di sease, and make for efficiency. I believe in my country, my state, and my community, and in my responsibility for their development. ' In all these things that I be lieve, I am willing to dedicate my service to their fulfillment, ? o : SUPPORT THE Y. M. C. A. ADMINISTRATRIX'S- NOTICE North Carolina, Wilkes County.

More Gasoline Is Used On Highway Washington.?A car traveling public is driving more in the postwar world. The average pas senger car owner used 651 gal lons of gasoline and drove some 9,765 miles in 1946, according to the estimates of a prominent economist in the petroleum in dustry, James J. Skelly presi dent of the American Road Build ers' Association, pointed out in commenting upon the increasing use of gasoline by the nation's motorists. "With all of us driving more, an accelerated highway construc tion program must keep pace," Mr. Skelly said. Americans have depended more and more upon the auto mobile each year since 1925. With war restrictions ended, average gasoline consumption per passenger car has resumed its yearly upward trend. "Increasing gasoline consump tion shows that the nation la geared to a highway pattern* of living," Mr. Skelly commented. "A car traveling. public is de pending more and more upon the highway for business trips and recreational travel." With 1,359,244 fewer cars and trucks registered in 1946 than in 1941, the nation's vehicles used a billion gallons' more gasoline than in the peak pre-war motor year. In 1946, highway gasoline consumption rose to 25,200,000, 000 gallons for the nation. Recent surveys indicate that 30.6 per cent of the nation's fam ilies are waiting to buy new cars. SOme 51 per cent of the urban families of the nation now own automobiles. * o Hosiery Workers Vote Against C.I.O. Union Greensboro. ?
