C-, JANUARY 27, 1935. Kind Words From Dr. Martin. This is fi*om Dr. Moir S. Martin, of the Mt. Airy Martin Memorial Hospital, Inc. "I am writing to congratulate you and your associates on the anniversary of the Danbury Reporter. Since I can remember the Danbury Reporter has been coming tc our home. After we mowd away from Stokes county my father Dr. II S.Martm, of Stuart, Virginia, was a regu lar subscriber and I have so often heard him say that it was the best rural paper in the United States and since returning to North rarolina 1 have continued to subscribe to the Reporter and I hardly know how I would get along without it. 1 enjoy your editorials anti read eveiyone of them." It is a ueligut iv:A inspiring to pause a mo ment and listen, above the din and the smoke (f the fight, to hear music like this. Now it i- easy and a great pleasure to return Dr. Martin's compliment, and to truthfully say this: That the hospital which he and Ashby are running at Mt. Airy is a great blessing to suff oring humanity, that it is a credit to Mt. Airyj and the State,"and one of the State's most val ued institutions. Dr Hunter McGuire, a noted: surgeon of St. Luke's hospital, Richmond, Va., : was succeeded bv his sen, Dr. Stuart McGuire, no less famed. The analogy is close and strik ing- -and we have often heard it remarked— that Dr. R. S. Martin of Stuart, Va., was one of the South's mcst eminent and skilled surgeons, SANDY RIDGE DEPARTMENT :: Sandy Ridge, N. C.

As l £,uide for the discussion the Jan- j ' vary Issue of the Parents maga-! zine was used. Teachers and their related sub jects discussed were as follows: "Parents Then and Now," Mr. C. R. Darr; "How Parents ar. Uandlin;; Childhood Problems pnd Teen-age Problems," A. E.!

Church, i:rcat..ed v at the and that he was so appropriately succeeded by his son, Dr. Moir Martin, likewise one of the South's most successful and outstanding sur geons and physicians. Print Paper Higher. j See where the government will investigate ; the sudden marked rise in the price of news • printing paper, which has been caused by a price-fixing arrangement among the manufac turers. One way for the government to help the newspapers and job printing offices is to get out of the business itself. Let the printing of fices have the envelop printing business. This 'industry is not as big as TVA, but the principle is the same —that private business men should j not be compelled to ccmpete with their govern ment. Campaigns Coming Cn. It is not so long before various campaigns |will be in tail swing— iiom United States Sen ator down to county constable. Promises and ci.rnmicmuits are already being- sougi-t iv> "early birds." The primary is early u» but filing .times iuv nrucxi closer. L-ouoti many babies have already been kissed. The' in polities will be anything else but ciull. . ./ . ! No Cause For Concern. The United State army lias made an orde; that enlisted men be refused permission to marry unless it is proved they can supoort wives. This should not. discourage recruiting unless the army officials object to wives sup porting their husbands. 11 o'clock service at Sandy Ridge [ Sunday morning. Dr. Lambeth , delivered a forceful sermon taken Trcm the forty-sixth Psalm and tenth verse. He stressed the ( importance cT the people today to heed the following words, "Be j SJII and Know that I Am God.' \ Quarterly conference immedi-' ately followed the sermon. , ...

[State College tobacco short course, that they must reduce their 1938 tobacco acreage, or suf jier the disaster of low prices. Mr. Finn evi dently does not know the psychology of the average tobacco grower, who upon hearing Mr. Finn's advice wiil immediately prepare to in crease his acreage. History bears out the truth of this statement. The only way to get high prices for tobacco is, of course, to produce less. And the only way to have lessened production is to put the same kind of crimp in the tail of wild planters that the original AAA put in it. Maybe this is dic tatorship. But it is certainly higher prices. 'Hope in the East. .Tpr)f;ri hps only concurred one or twc hundred million Ohinrsf 1 ,r et, and maybe when the c:the v TOO million fnd "t out they will try to dc some thing about it.
