Blackstone. : NOTARY PUBLIC Se r vices AT THE Mountaineer Haywood Farmers Inaugurate "Food For Freedom" Plan (Continued from page I) He pointed out instances of events just related to him by officials in Washington, which indicated the seriousness of the times. . Glenn Boyd made an urgent ap peal for the farmers to. take the matter seriously, and concluded bis remarks: "Haywood will do all she is asked to do," T. Weaver Cathey, state AAA committeeman, explained in de tail how the program would be in augurated, and waa definite in his opinion that the requests in this county would be met He was warm in his praise of the close co-operation between business men and farmers in Haywood, J. H. Howell pointed out in a few brief remarks that "all talk" needed to be backed up with action. and cited instances during the last World War of the sacrifices that were made and that similar ones would be needed to bring about peace. . T. U. Green brought the "house down" as he explained that he was a farmer before most of those present were born, His witty re marks kept the audience in an up roar. (His speech is printed in detail in Here and There, on page two of this newspaper.) Dr. C N. Sisk, district health officer, was alarmed at the large percentage of young men rejected by the service because of physical disability. Proper diet and better living conditions are heeded to correct this needless condition he remarked. "We have got to have a proper and balanced diet, and here m the rural sections there is no reason for not having such," He advised that everyone eat wholesome bread and "leave white bread off." Charles Ray urged the farmers to keep in mind the "one gallus' man as they planned their increase in crop production and try and give him a job on the program, 'This type person heeds more at tention, and this increased fram production program should absorb many of them," he concluded. Rev. R. E. MacBJain, rector of the Grace Episcopal chcurch, pointed out that this nation needed spirtual rearmament program in connection with the military re armament. Quoting the Scripture of "Render unto Caesar those things are Caesar's and unto the Lord those things that are the Lord," he expounded on the first part that we were obligated and should consider it a pleasure and duty to help our government when called upon. Mr. MacBlain was warm in his praise of the co-operation between business men and farmers in Haywood. "I am a new comer in this community, having been here but a year. Each group knows what the other is trying to do, and under euch conditions you are helping each other to make a success of your undertakings." He said further: "I feel The Mountain eer is responsible for this under standing and co-operation between the two groups." W. A. Bradley told the group, "We farmers are going to put this" program across. If the people in England need food now as badiy as they did during the last war, they are in a bad fix, because I tried to eat some there in 1918, and it was terrible." r W. T. Shelton pointed out that the farmers of this section had al ways stood by their country, and that from contacts with larmers oi the Civil War days, he knew that then they did their part, and again in the last war, and he was confi dent that this time Haywood farm ers would meet heir responsibil ities with success. C X Weatherby offered the co operation of the schools, and said that no faction was more interested in the health of the youth than the schools. During the court, of the even ing, countv asrent Corpening said: "A farmer who is forced to spend money for milk, pork, poultry and other products he could produce at home is a liability in the National Defense program, Every ounce of dairy, poultry and other such pro ducts is needed to feed defense forces in army camps and indus trial centers, and our friends who are resisting aggression in Eu rope." HEWS REPORTS AT FT. JACKSON By Bobby Sloan. The first real fighting of the maneuver as far as our regiment was concerned, took place this past week, when the 120th Infantry made up the spearhead of an as sault against the First Army troops with whom we were maneuvering. Black-out troop movements by truck took care of the firat two days of the week. We were the Reds, our. enemies" the Blues. The movement was carried out successfully, and the 120th Infan try advanced fourteen miles Wed nesday night and Thursday morn ing, the 117th Inlantry was equally successful, so the enemy was rout ed and the problem over a day ahead of schedule. walking at best. Without maps and in the dark, this would have been a nigh impossibe job. : They were a cheerful lot and appeared happy to get back to corps prisoner of war cage, for at least they would be fed and have a place to sleep, which is more than the lucky (T) soldiers up on the front lines who were not prisoners had. During the fight, the 120th In fantry in one hour captured seven truck-loads of Blues. It was the writer's interesting job of escort ing one of these trucks back to the prisoner of war cage Thursday night which corps maintained in the rear of our lines. Part oi a convoy, of about ten vehicles, in. eluding an enemy anti-tank gun, threaded its way in the late alter noon dust and night darkess about twenty miles. We got the prison ers back to corps without mishap. The prisoners were an assorted lot, from two lieutenants on down to buck private. AH were tired, and attempt at escape would have been absurd, even if it could have been done, for they were already hope lessly lost as far as reaching their units were concerned. They would have had to gone through all of our front lines as well as their own front line troops which would have ronnired fourteen miles of hard The prisoners disposed of, there -emained the harder job of getting back to our unit. We drove by Lancaster to pick up the 120th mail and drove out into the night back to the spot where we had left the advancing troops. They were of course somewhere in front of us, but we didn't know where. We were gain up near the front lines, so lights had to go out and over un familiar roads, without being sure of our destination, it was not until about two o'clock Friday morning that we got back with our unit at regimental headquarters.
