THE LETTER-BOX SUNDAY CARDS If card games are played on Sun days in Williamston there is gross neglect in the training which the clergy are giving their members. The Sabbath was made for man. but not for man to abuse and set a bad example to children and others. If one cannot attend church serv ices then one should read the Bible, the religious press, and engage in acts of charity and mercy. The town's life will become very poor if cards are played on Sunday and the clergy do not speak against this practice in no uncertain terms. '"Hie Continental Sunday" was a term for persons doing most any thing on Sunday. But years ago, such was not the habit in the British Isles nor the South of America's United States. Mrs. Jim Staton. To The Editor: For some time I have wanted to write and say that the articles which it was thought, had been stolen from the Baptist parsonage of Williams ton, were located. They were put aside for shipment to Greensboro and were temporarily misplaced in ?lir moving in Williamston and to Greensboro. We rejoice that they were found, not only because of their value, but because of the embarass St. Louis Cardinals And Detroit Tigers At Durham April 7 Durham?(Special)?A preview of big league baseball will be offered fans of this district when the St. Louis Cardinals of the National League and the Detroit Tigers of the American loop meet in Durham in an exhibition game on Tuesday, April 7th. The game, to be staged at Durham Athletic Park, will be call ed at 3:00 o'clock. One of the outstanding attractions of the contest will be the appearance of Jimmy Brown in the infield of the Cards. Brown, a star of the Red Birds, is a Jamesville boy, raised in Martin County, and started his base ball career in that spot. A number of fans from that sec tion are planning to make the trip here to pay tribute to theif "first citizen of baseball." Other Tar Heels in the Qardinal line-up include Outfielder Enos (Country) Slaughter, of Roxboro; Pitcher Max Lanier from Denton and Outfielder Coker Triplett of, Boone. In addition, the Cards will pre sent such stars as Ix>n Warneke. Gus Mancuso, Howard Pollet, Walker Cooper formerly of Asheville; Terry Moore, Stan Musial, Frank Crespi, Morton Cooper. Martin Marion and Ken O'Dea. They will be under the direction of Manager Billy South wi >it 11. In the Detroit line-up will appear such well-known diamond names as Rudy York. Tommy Bridges. School boy Rowe. Birdie Tebbetts, Pinky Higgins. Barney MeCpskey. Ray Radcliff and Dick Wakefield, the $45,000 rookie, with Winston-Salem ing circumstances under which they were supposed to have disappeared. This letter of explanation should have been written sooner. My only excuse is that since we cannot now go to the Hawaiian Islands, we have boon very busy meeting speaking en gagements in this State, South Caro lina and Georgia We did so enjoy our stay in Williamston. We have found no people anywhere in this world more kind and helpful. Allow me to take this opportunity to ex press apprecitaion of consideration received and regret that this letter was not gotten off to your paper sooner. Thanking you for publishing the above, and with kindest greetings to all. I remain. Very sincerely yours. Chas. A Leonard. Sr. Farmers Warned Of Deadline On AAA Abdications Farmers who participated in the 1941 Agricultural Adjustment Ad ministration program must file ap plication for conservation and par ity payments by March 31, according to E. Y. Floyd, state AAA executive officer. More than 213,000 farm operators took part in the program last year, and each of these must file an appli cation. he said. Payments will not be made on applicalionsfilcd after the deadline. Mr. Floyd said applications should be signed at the Triple A office in the county in which the farm is lo cated. It was pointed out that far mers will not be required to come to the county office to receive their checks this year. II. S. Department of Agriculture officials have an nounced that checks will be mailed directly to farmers ill order to save" time and conserve transportation. Estimated earnings of North Car- ' olina farmers under the program last year are approximately $14,287,267 in agricultural conservation pay ments, and $7,100,000 in parity pay ments These parity payments in clude $4,200,000 in tobacco payments. $2,800,000 in cotton payments, and $100,000 in wheat payments. Mr Floyd pointed out that parity pay ments were necessary under exist ing farm legislation to bring the income received by farmers for their ! products to approximately 75 per cent of parity. Conservation pay ments were made for planting with in acreage allotments for special crops and carrying out approved soil building practices Marketing quotas, approved by farmers in grower referendum#, were in effect for cotton, wheat, tobacco, and peanuts last year, he said. Wheat growers approved quotas by a ma jority of 83 8 per cent, peanut grow ers by a majority of 90.9 per cent, and cotton growers by a majority of 95.1 per cent. Tobacco marketing quotas w i re approved for a period of three years on July 20, 1940. Demand For Milk Supplies Is Created Army camps and increased civil ian population m North Carolina have accounted for a new demand of approximately 10.000 gallons of fluid milk daily, according to W. L. Clewnger, dairy manufacturing specialist of N. C. State College. The requirement is still on the increase, since new camps are now heing established in the Slate. In addition, the normal demand is in creasing as more money is placed in circulation. This situation, Clevenger said, means that North Carolina is now doing its biggest dairy business and will be expected to do an even big ger job before the war is over. Indications are. he continued, that the State will be able to meet this new demand without a great deal of trouble, since it is well-balanced from most standpoints. However, the dairyman said, this added load has required much ex pansion of physical plants handling the dairy products and a better cor j relation and foresight in the manage ment of these plants by those engag ed in the industry. "North Carolina is fortunate," he continued, "to have so many good dairymen to supply milk and cream either directly to the consuming pub lic or to milk processing and dis tributing plants, evaporating and drying plants, cheese plants, ice cream manufacturers, and creamer ios." Now that the State is an import ant dairy producer, the State Col last summer. Manager Del Baker will have charge of the* Tiger squad The Tigers played here several years ago against Cincinnati, but this game will mark the first appearance of the Cardinals in Durham, and they are regarded as one of the outstand ing threats in the National League pennant race. lege special lit said, dairymen should make every effort to see that their milk will be among the best and most wholesome in the entire coun try Labor A U. S. Department of Agricul ture survey recently completed shows sharply higher wages for farm labor and larger numbers of work ers now employed on farms. NOTICE OF SALE North Carolina Martin County.
