FREEZER LOCKERS Much is
being written these days aDout
..o,r Inrker Dlants and North
Carolina towns in particular are
d.TOting much attention to the ad
visability of securing them. Many
towns are now planning to have
plants. For those that are inter
tj.l here are a few advantages
for locker plant users: freezing
liminates the drudgery ol home
an nine and curing: less loss oc
curs from spoilage under controll
ed temperatures; frozen meats and
poultry are usually more palatable
than home-canned or nome-cureo
puts- there is a distinct saving
through the purchase of large
quantities of meat and through the
ability to purchase meats and vege
tables when they are cheapest.

RURAL Commissioner of Agri
culture W. Kerr Scott has writtc
an article for the "Biblical Re
corder" on the country church. H
says the country church has no
kept pace with the paved roads
rural schools and rural electrifi
cation.
The trouble, says Scott, is that
the poor country boy goes off to
town and makes his money, gives it
to the big city church and forgets
the church that nurtured him in
his youth.
EDUCATION North Carolina
citizens spent three times as much
for whiskey, wine and beer ($66,
000,000) in 1942 as they did for
education. They spent over $23,
000,000 for whiskey alone during
the fiscal year beginning July 1,
1942, and ending June 30, 1943.
In 1939, the figure was only $6,
798,407. PREVENTION Working on
the theory that an ounce of pre
vention is worth 16 ounces of cure,
the veteiinarians of North Caro
lina are sponsoring a series of 2S
weekly radio programs which will
tell farmers how to look after their
cattle better.
There is a shortage of veterinar
ians at this time especially in
.Eastern North Carolina and this
preventive talk is calculated to
ease the situation somewhat. These
programs will be given at 1:45
each Monday over WPTF by Dr.
William Moore, State veterinarian.
TOBACCO Winston-Salem to
bacco markets sold over 43,000,000
pounds of tobacco up to January 1
at an average of $41.98 per hun
dred pounds. Total sales of burlny
tobacco in the Boone and Asheville
markets ran to 3,919,720 pounds at
an average of $49.44 per hundred
pounds for this same period.
BUILDINGS Mertdith College
is contemplating the construction
of a chapel, a gymnasium, and a
Science Building at the conclusion
of the war or as soon as money
and material are available. A
drive is now underway to raise
J565.000 with which to achieve
these goals and others of parallel
importance. Maybe you can help.
DOORSTEP Dr. Charles E.
Maddry, secretary of the Foreign
Mission Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention, in his speech
at the dedication of the Hayes
Barton Baptist Church last Sunday
remarked that in 2,000 years
church leaders have Christianized
only 600,000,000 folks out of two
billion. We must do better now,
he said, that the world is on our
doorstep.
