Out for marsh hens, he brought in a full days bag limit. With his birds were two that were brought down by a single discharge of his gun. This was pretty good, but two days later Mollycheck was out dove hunting and bagged four doves at one shot and three at another. He was using a single barreled gun on both occasions.

I F c Dangerous To ! Overcrowd Car ; i There Is Not Safety 'In a Numbers When It Comes t To Overloading An Auto, E Advises Hocutt The old adage to the effect h that there is safety in numbers c certainly does not apply in auto- L mobile travel, according to Ron- h aid Hocutt, director of the North ii Carolina Highway Safety Divi- n sion. n "Happiness is the keynote when v a. group of young people pile into v an automobile and start off to t the fair or a football game, or e on some other short trip, but li if they overcrowd the car, grief a may soon enter the, picture", said e the safety director. t Hocutt pointed to the recent b accident in which an automobile loade'd with eight young people a overturned while enroute to a ii high- school football game, in- t jurying four of the boys and a girls in the car and killing two. I "There is serious danger in r the practice of overloading an r automobile", he declared. "In the h first place, when three or four people are jammed into the front C seat, the driver, does not have sufficient room to operate the car safely, due to the difficulty of shifting gears and using the brakes. And -on top of that, when there are to many people in a car, the driver has too many distractions and can not very well keep his or her mind on their driving." Hocutt cautioned all car owners against. overloading their automobiles, and he particularly urged that parents who allow their teen-age children the family car . to go to a football game, dance or other school activity should admonish their children not to take along any greater number of persons than the car was designed to accommodate. - T, SOUTHPORT, N.

More than one-third of 1 these move each year. < It is impossible for a tenant ' farmer to make the best living and it is impossible for him to do the best by his landlord's land i when he moves every year. The > landlord and tenants have a com- 1 mon interest in the land. The ten- ' ure system can be greatly improved by the co-operation of tenants and landlords. ' To aid in this co-operation the Farm Security Administration has prepared what is called a flexible J' farm lease. This farm lease is flexible enough so it can be adop- ] ted to any tenant or share-cropping system and if properly used will be of considerable help to the land, the landlord and the ten- s ant. At the Supply meeting this * lease, as well as the general problems in tenancy, will be fully 1 explained.
