Day At E. Pigeon
Community
The inter-community field day
in Eat Pigeon last week attracted
295 men. women, and children of
the host community and the White
Oak community, which was the
guest.
The count made after dinner
showed 89 visitors from White Oak
i;tid 2iKi from East Pigeon attend
ing .he '-vent.
The visitors and hontn went on
a farm tour of East Pigeon during
the morning, stopping at several
places to see outstanding pasture,
and crops of corn, tobacco, and hay
Another point of interest was

Gene Wyatt,
; Tax Collector,
Town of Hazelwood.
The college professor, and preach
er, talked briefly on the conditions
in England today, hut prefaced his
, remarks, that perhaps the people
i in America had as good an under
1 standing as those living on the
Hritisli Isles.
i "We are so concerned about get
ling a little more butter, sugar, fats
and other scarce articles of food,
that we often overlook some para
mount political issues which hap
pen rigid al our elbow," he said.
The speaker said the average
doctor did nut like the socialized
medicine syslem in England, and
thai he personally was paying nine
shillings weekly in the form of
taxes, but had not used any of the
sen ices ollcrcd by socialized medi
cine. In his opinion, there were
sonic parts of (lie welfare state
program worth continuing, and
others which should be stopped,
lie said that six months nun the
English people were told drastic
changes would have to be made, as
the country was broke. "America
has kept us up, and during the past
m months we have not heard any
more about (lie situation. We just
keep wondering."
