WORKS LIKE A FREE ENGINE TUNE-UP SEE YOUR DEALER SINCLAIR Little River Ice Co., Zebulon HORACE SMITH, Mgr. PHONE AN 9-3081 WASHERS & DRYERS (Continued from Page 1) tell of the wonderful advantages the electric dryers offer. No fro zen fingers on winter days; no wor ries about dust during a windy March; no clothes to lug from washer to line. Some typical comments are found in a feature article which begins on page two. The confidence appliance deal ers have in their washers is indi cated by a guarantee given with one line which reads: “If any customer of an author ized (name) dealer buys and in stalls in her home a new 230 volt (name) Electric Dryer between January 28 and February 28, 1958, and within thirty days after instal lation tells the dealer that she is not completely satisfied with it, the dealer wiH immediately, upon release of the customer’s title, ar range to have it removed and the purchase price of the dryer (ex clusive of installation and other costs) refunded.” * Other dealers have expressed similar confidence that owners will like their lines of washers and dryers. In every line, 1958 models in clude improvements which make older models obsolete, and many washer owners are trading their older models in on new machines. As a result, there are some used machines in excellent conditions available. This is a good season to purchase a washer and dryer, before the peak wash loads come later in the Spring. Prices are more attractive than ever, and the washers and dryers are waiting. RUBBER TILE PLASTIC TILE Edwards Floor Finishing Co.

Uncle Ferds Almanac >i Here is a discouraging thought: unless the law of averages has been repealed, we are going to have an extra hot summer. Temperatures generally average about the same for a year, and it is going to take a lot of hot weather to bring our average temperature up to normal for 1958. And as far as I am concerned (along with several hundred other local pipe-thawers), the hot weather will come none too soon. I promise here and now not to complain for the first three days of any hot spell we have this year. (After 3 days of heat, I may grum ble a little, but right now I doubt it.) We had the coldest weather last week that has ever been experi enced in Zebulon. If anybody wants to argue that point with me, come to see me, and we will have it out. But I have experienced much colder weather, but not through choice. In 1951 I walked over a lot of Kansas when the tempera ture was 20 below and there was a 30-mile an hour wind blowing. Man, that was really cold — about like my wife’s feet last Monday^ night. The coldest temperature ever recorded in North America was at Snag, Yukon Territory, in 1947 when it got down to 81 below. Back in 1892 it got to 90 below in Siberia on three different days, and that is a world record. May be the IGY boys in Antarctica will come back with a new record. If they don’t, they are missing a good chance. The highest temperature ever recorded was near Tripoli in North Africa ip 1922 — 136 de grees. Of course the meteorologists have never had their thermome ters in a tobacco field in August. But one of our farmers said that thinking of priming tobacco next summer was all that carried him through the cold spell. When a man comments on the weather, however, he is just ask ing for trouble, unless he makes a remark like the following: Oh, what a blamed uncertain thing This pesky weather is. It blew and snew and then it thew, And now, by jing, it friz. To Hold Assembly “Jehovah’s Witnesses of Circuit 26 will hold their first semiannu al circuit assembly for 1958 in Elizabeth City the weekend of February 28 through March 2,” so stated the presiding minister of the Zebulon Congregation, Raymond Parrish. The P. W. Moore High School will house the assembly. Sessions will begin Friday eve ning at 6:45 and continue through Sunday until 6:00 p.m. The pro gram will include problems and progress interspersed with skits and demonstrations. About 400 delegates from 21 towns and communities in North Carolina and Virginia are expected to attend. A delegation of some 20 persons, headed by the local presiding minister, will represent the Zebulon Congregation. “The purpose of the three-day seminar,” Parish said, “is to give Jehovah’s Witnesses additional training in the ministry that they may be able to live closer to the Bible and its teachings in this age of materalism.” The highlight of the convention will be a public talk by the district supervisor, James A. Thompson, Jr. The subject of the address will be “Facing the Future Without Fear.” All sessions with be open to the public. Card of Thanks I wish to express my sincere thanks to the many friends, rela tives, and loved ones for every act of love and kindness shown me during my recent trips to the hos pital and my convalescence at home. The cards, phone calls, vis its, and prayers mean more to me than I can say. Miss Ellie Bell Gay, Rt. 3, Zebu Ion HOPKINS CHAPEL Mrs. Iris Temple Rev. Virgil McBride will teach a study course “A Roving Report” to the GAs and RAs at the church Saturday p.m. at 4:00. Slides and film strips will be used.
