National Cotton Week
Now Being Observed
Cotton is North Carolina's No.
2 cash crop; cotton is one of the
necessities of life; cotton is the
most versatile and widely used
of all fibers. That is why Miss
Willie N. Hunter, ' Extension
clothing specialists of N. C.
State College, urges people of
the. state to support National
Cotton week, the producer-consume?
event which will be celebrated
May 17-25.
"This annual Compaign is held
year merchants of all types, into
stimulate increased consumption
of cotton goods, and this
dividual and chain store, are
planning special window displays
and bargains in cotton
goods during the nine-day period,"
Miss Hunter declared.
" ~ 11 1 Of AWA
ine fcjouineasuem uuu uwit
Council, through its North Carolina
representative, P. D. May,
is taking an active part in the
campaign in this state, and
the North Carolina Cotton Council,
of which T. B. Upchurch, Jr.,
of Raeford, is leader, has heartily
endorsed the event.
Miss Hunter points out that
cotton contributes something
useful from infancy throughout
life of every person. The infant's
first clothes are cotton, and of
whatever age, "we wear and use
cotton in some form or another."
Other specialists of State College
point out that this year,
above all others, increased domestic
consumption of cotton
will be vital to Tar Heel farmers.
The European War has cut off
export markets, and with tobacco
allotments restricting production
of North Carolina's No.
1 cash crop, scores of farmers
are returning to cotton as a
source of major income.
Among the uses of cotton listed
by. Miss Hunted are: Clothing
and accessories; curtains,
bed linens, and other household
necessities, ropes, twine, nets,
tents, awnings belts for machinery,
sails ducts, and various byproducts
such as livestock feed.

cial stamps being issued in commemoration
of the anniversary.
She also acknowledged the \
courtesy of the New York Times, \
The Chicago Herald Tribune,
and the Graphic Arts Associa- j
tion in lending materials to be 1
used for an exhibit displayed in j
the college library. This exhibit -j
includes rare J>ooks and manuscripts
among which is an illuminated
manuscript, lent by Miss
Lenora Smith of the education- I
department.
Following, the talk by Miss
Pryor, Conley . Hampton discussed
"The History of Printing,"
giving summaries of the
workwork of Gutenberg and
Caxton. Eric Lloyd then talked
on the "Relation of Printing to
Life, showing how rapidly
knowledge had spread, what
vast fields of ' knowledge have
been opened up, and hpw the
wisdom of one age is preserved
for that of the next through the
medium of printing. Printing, he
remarked, has replaced provincialism
with cosmopolitanism.
"Next to a living person, there is
nothing more interesting than
a printed book," he concluded.
Barbara Dodson, chairman of
the class program then presented
the Picture Encyclopedia of
the World's Greatest Newspaper
from the Chicago Tribune, to
the college library and it was accepted
for the student body by
Mrs. C. C. Buchanan, librarian.
Men drivers were involved in
, more than 90 per cent of last
