State Board Is | Allotting Funds To County Schools By M. R. DUNNAGAN RALEIGH, Dec. 22.?The State Board of Equalization, at its meeting last week, allotted $155,078.18 to three items in connection with the operation cf the public schools, including $62,883 for additional transportation, $54,870 as part of salary land expenses of school attendance officers, and $37,325.18 to aid in rural school supervision, Secretary LeRoy Martin announces. The transportation amount is in addition to the amount allotted for last year and is to take care of schools consolidated since last year, at the rate of $5 a year per child added to these already transported. Seventy counties participate in the J new allotment, 21 others had no consolidations since last year and no reports have been made by the remaining nine. Chatham leads in number of children transported as a result of the new consolidations, with 594 children, getting $3,970. Wake gets $2,545. Yadkin $3,450, Wilkes $2,450. Attendance activities are support-' ed jointly, the State Board paying j mils $inn travel expenses, J ilUin V iuu Y_?. W to $1,300 plus $300 trevel expenses, on a sliding scale based on county population, the counties being required to match, or may exceed, the State amounts. Eighty-seven counties participate in this allotment, getting $43,715 on salary and $11,155 on travel expenses of attendance officers. Forty-six counties participate in t WARREN RECORD its of Inte the rural supervision allotment, the State paying one-third of the salary and $200 toward travel expenses. Twelve counties have both white and colored supervisors, eight have white only and 26 have colored only. The colored supervisors are, in a sense, serving as county superintendents for the colored schools. Colored schools get $20,155.18 and white schools $17,570 . from this fund. Warren county, under the new allotments, gets $825 additional for transporting pupils; $600 for salary and $100 for travel expenses of the attendance officer, and nothing for rural supervision, secretary lviartin's records show. Declares Cotton Producers Depend On Organization RALEIGH. Dec. 21.?Cotton producers of this country can depend on no organizations except those of their own to solve their problems and fight their battles, according to U. Benton Blalock, president of the American Cotton Cooperative Association, who bases his statement on 10 years' experience as a cotton shipper, 10 years as manager of the North Carolina cotton cooperative and a lifetime as a cottor producer. "A cooperative cotton association is more than a marketing agency," he said. "It is a farmers' organization, without annual dues, ready tc do battle for the organized and unorganized producers alike." Here he pointed to the successful battle of the cooperatives for lower freight rates on cotton, their victory in preventing certain mid_western states outlawing cottonseed products, and their present fight for a "net weight" cotton law which would increase the sale of cotton bagging. Enumerating other services, he said the cooperatives distributed thousands of bushels of purebred seed annually, worked for better ^liming iiicniuu^ emu ucvwupcu operative gins, fostered community growing of one variety of cottcn only, distributed boll weevil poison, fertilizers and other farm supplies on a non-profit basis, obtained insurance for members at a discount and cooperated with the CottonTextile Institute and .other agencies in developing new used for cottcn. The American Cotton Cooperative of which Mr. Blaloclr is head, is composed of 11 state associations! and has a total membership of approximately 200,000. North Carolina Has The Largest Families North Carolina not only has the highest birth rate of all the states, a positicn which she has held for many years, but she has the largest average-size families. For the United States the average family contains 4.1 persons. For North Carolina the average is 4.9 persons per fn.milv Smith Carolina ranks next to North Carolina with 4.7 persons per family and only three other states are above 4.5 persons per family. The birth rate is declining in North Carolina, and so is the average size of the family, but they are declining less than for the Nation as a whole. North Carolina raises children, and there is no finer crop. | Imperial I a Warrenton N. C. x x Friday, December 25 x $ Matinee Christmas Day, be- <6 a ginning at 3:00 p. m.

Wrapped in swaddling clothes, "lying in a manger.?Luke 2:12. The world's first Christmas Gift was from God and was "His only begotten Son," Heaven's richest tieasure. It was the greatest boon that earth could receive. It was a baby, weak and helpless, out of a home of daily toil. Not to the court of a king, the palace of a rich man, nor the comfortable heme of the well-to.do, but to a stable prepared lor beasts of burden, came ihe priceless gilt. And this way fitting, for since the dawn of creation there had been no burden bearer like Him who bore the sins of the whde world. In the Gift we have sometmng of God's outlook. As Christmas -aids appeared the star that guiaet' the wise men from the East; from the Eternal Throne came through Angelic messengers the declaration: "Peace <m Earth, Good Will *o Men." So with its richest Gilt, Heaven sent its best wishes. The first Christmas was the central point of all history II changed the calendar, so that time is leckoned as before and after the. birth of Christ. It gave, too, a different meaning lo life. It <vas seen that not master, but service is the true ideal. But for this change there would have been no "Hoar East Relief." and only the moot tragic disaster would have come to that large area of the earth during and after the World War. Christmas emphasizes the gradual fulfillment of what the prophet of cla said, "Peace should flow as a raver." There is growth toward the fulfillment of that prophecy and wnen (jurist s conquering iuve snuu cause a sufficiently controlling part of mankind to love even their enemies therg will be world peace. The river of peace" is enlarging. There is love for the unfortuncte.

GIBBS ooss, nor those bereft of reason nailed to the floors of common jails There are hospitals for the insane and even for lepers. The formerly unfeeling rich are meriting praise for their philanthropy. And God's Christmas Gift is to all people. Whether knowledge of it comes from printed books, the ministry of missions or the civilizing influence of trade it is tiding of peace and good will. It expresses God's love for men, softening the hands of greed, melting the heart of cruelty and kindling tire love of humanity. God's kingdom is in the world and it is growing toward that nerfect love that not only keeps one's self unspotted from the world, but visits the fatherless and widows?ministers to the needy. In this Christmas time we shall be most like God in seeing the need of others and making to them our best possible gifts. Many of the poor are high_minded, and yet material aid is needed. Find out and make them happier as you celebrate the birth of Christ. God counted not the cost of the Gift, but the relief needed. We can believe the Scripture which says. "God is love." Nor can we say that because of His infinite rescurces God could not miss what He gave, for He gave His only Son. In making His advent Christ identified himself with the poorest. - . - . .
