A few years before his passing, hr made a remark that life begins at forty. In considering the world of today which is in a tops.v. tor vy turmoil, we are prone to live in fear wondering what is going to happen tomorrow. In view of these facts, we'll have to change Will Rogers' saying and now we'll tell you that life begins at fifty. We are still receiving favorable comments of our paint ings of national defense and these congratulations are from roast to roast and from border to border . . . So. they must be worth-while, according to the statements of others. You know our youngsters?even our colored friends?are interested in these paintings and it is very interesting to stand bark and watch them standlrig as mutes in silence looking at and reading the paintings. Their actions speak louder than words and there Ls something in their minds we cannot comprehend. As an educational feature, we think it is great. So, giving credit where credit is due. we must pass it along to where it belpngs ... A gentleman, who is your best friend, and my best friend, and buddie. and the writer thinks it's nice to have such a gentleman to dwell among us ... He is none other than J. A. Philpot. John never boasts how he ran do it or beat the other fel low. In the writer's opinion his work Ls nice and with out him all the paintings and showings would have been in vain. More could be said about this young man. but we will refrain from doing so at the prrsent time. The yotuig men coming from or going to the training camps speak well of our decorations as a defense pur pose. Our army may not be the largest but it is the best educated on earth and this will go a long way in defeat ing the enemy, whosoever it may be. So now. being a citizen and speaking for our city, we are reminded that some years back if my memory is clear and I think it is, some rumors came to us that some parts of our city were in the slums. These places have all been eliminated and cleaned up. For an inspec lion wr invite you all. Remember, in so speaking we have no hatred or envy against our fellowmen . . . We are Just a big family of old time friendly folk living in a city which is now growing in leaps and bounds and we would be happy to have you come and live with us. Think it over. P. P.

Indoor Track and Field Championships in New York, then receives a congratulatory kiss from his mother. Kice also shattered the 2V4 mile and 2*\ mile records. U. S. Envoy Attacked An unidentified German struck United States Minister George II. Earle with a wine bottle in a Sofia restaurant after the band, at Earle's request, played the British World War marching song "It's a lx>ng Way to Tipperary." The many Ciermans in the Bulgarian cafe had hooted at the American envoy. Sticks Parity Ixiun Bill For Tobacco Washington, D. C Legislation (S.935) to establish a "parity" floor under the prices of cotton, wheat, tobacco and rice arid to reduce stiH further the production of cotton was ; offered recently by Senator Bank head (D-Ala.). The price peg would lie accom plished by requiring the Agriculture department to make loans on these commodities at the "parity" rate ? that is, the "fair" price of a commod ity in relation to other prices. On that basis, the loans would av erage about 15.85 cents a pound for cotton, $1.13 a bushel for wheat, $1.04 a bushel for rice, 22 4 cents a pound for flue-cured tobacco, and 24.8 cents a pound for biirley tobacco. The loans at ifk) pej* cent of parity would be limited to those producers who cooperated with thfe soil conser vation program The loans for others would be at the rate of 60 per cent of parity. In any year when marketing quo tas were not in effect, the loan rates would range from 62 to 85 per cent of parity, depending upon the esti mated production for the year. For corn, the loan rates would be t 85 per cent of parity for cooperators I Carolina.. Bird - Lore Tilt WILD I I KKKY The noblest game bird found in North America i> the Wild Turkey, which I am glad to say is .still avail able to. the hunter in many sections of North Carolina. It is nowhere, of com i , a common bird as a gang of turkeys requires a large body of woodland to enable the birds to find a sufficiency of food and to feel a comparative degree of safe ty. The species is probably the slyest and most alert of our wild game. If u deer signs a man stand ing perfectly still, it may lope on by him only a few feet away, pro vided, of course, it does not catch the man's scent. The Wild Turkey, however, seeing a man as did the deer leaves the place at a high rate of speed, always endeavoring to keep some bush or tree-trunk between it and the possible enemy. The eastern section of the State is the area in which most of our Wild Turkeys are now found though I see no reason why the Wild Turkey should not in former days have been as plentiful on the wooded slopes of our mountains as in the lowlands of the east, that is. in localities where beech-mast, oak mast and other suit able woodland fruits and nuts were available foods. At the present time according to a recent publication by the Stall- Department of Conserva tion 14 of our 25 mountain counties are listed as still havjng some Wild Turkeys as follows Alleghany, Ashe, Avery, Cherokee, CTtfy, ?Graham, HyawMod, Jackson, Macon, Swain, Transylvania, Wilkes, Yadkin and Yancey. Of the piedmont counties, 22 of the 32 counties are listed as turkey hunting areas, and 39 of the 43 eastern counties It may be news to some of you, but the Wild Turkey is still to he found in Wake County, one of our most thickly populated counties, though I am not telling what part of Wake. I have no doubt that the Department of Conserva tion would look with favor on the matter of re-stocking counties mak ing requests to that end if suitable physical conditions prevail. Description: Very similar to the bronze variety of. tin- Humes!irated bird The tips of the tail feathers, in the commercial producing area and 75 per cent for those outside the commercial area. The loan level for non-cooperators would be at 60 per cent of the cooprra tors' rate. Corn 1 parity is now about 82.2 cents a bushel. ' ' Boost Conservation Of RuBImt Imports' With events in the Singapore re 1 glbn, which supplies 97 per cent of j this country's natural rubber, be- ! .eome more grave, a second im portant boost attributable to re sou ret) - was given the national rub- i l?vr conservation effort last week by ! the same company which first put] synthetic rubber tires on the market . last June According to John 1,. Coll Iyer, tire manufacturing company of j i ficial. the entire 1941 output of one j of the company's tire lines will be ! fortified with Duration, a discovery : of Akron laboratories.

In uddi tion, he announced an important ?hangr in truck toe construction that , is said to increase mileage by 25 per cent over 1940 standards With the ; nation's present rubber reserves en ? ?ugh f??i only nine months' normal needs, such ef foils will help defoi the need of rationing if events in the Kar Kast should curtail our normal supplies of "natural rubber.
