NEW YORK CITY?Thirty-one
Haywood County 4-H members, ac
companied by Miss Jean Childers
and Cecil Wells, 4-H leaders, and
Miss Mildred Rinehart, Mrs. O. L.
Yates and Joe Turner, left Wavnes
ville Monday morning at 7:45 ?45
. minutes late) on the long trek to
Berkshire County, Mass.
We came by Morganton and
1 Winston-Salem where Wayne Corp
ening and his wife met us at the
Biltmore Dairy Bar for lunch We
had taken lunches with us and the
Chamber of Commerce furnished
milkshakes and ice cream. With
i 'he Corpenin*s were represonta
) lives of the Winston-Salem Cham
' her of Commerce. We appreciated
'he hospitality shown us but we
have a feeling that Wayne Corp
ening had suggested it! (He has a
wav of getting things done.)
Our bus driver. Buddy Rogers, a
Waynesville native and an expert
under the wheel of a bus. got us
?o Richmond. Va. on the minute?
7 p.m. We spent the night at the
j Richmond Auto Court on U. S. 1
Each unit had a television set
'30 minutes for 25ci which some of
(he youngsters en.ioyed. <R. K
Cathey, Barnard Ferguson and
| Robbv Clark enjoyed many laughs
I far into the morning.)
Passengers made this observa
tion: From Waynesville to Rieh
mond onlv one man was seen work
in? in the fields. He was near
Richmond limits baling hay.
After a hearty breakfast in Rich
mond on Tuesday we left for Wash
ington where we had a 15-minute
rest stoo. The proor-ietor of the
?dace (Crairmore's Cafeteria) is a
Tar Heel?Ruoert Edward Reeves
of Marshall. He seemed very glad
to have so many Haywood "neigh
bors" stop in.
Needless to say all eves were
glued to the windows as wo passed
through Washington. The Pentagon
Building, airplanes, government
buildings, the parks. Washington
monument?all came in for their
share of attention. Those who had
already visited the capital proudly
pointed out various places of in
terest.
We ate fun eh at one of the How
ard Johnston Restaurants in Bal
timore where Harriet A. Tutweiler,
formerly of the home agent's office
met us and had lunch with us. It
seemed good to have even a brief
visit with her.
The New Jersey Turnpike was1
another experience. The road is ex-'
ceptionally good, and the toll gates
were "new" to most of the 4-H'ers. '
Thg hundreds ot acres of as-'
parajjus and tbhialbes along the
Turnpike were such a contrast to
the fields of the cured tobacco in

I
Bringing a record crowd to the
auditorium, Junaluska Day obser
vance at the Assembly Sunday
marked the peak of the Assembly's
fortieth season.
Bishop Costen J. Harrell, of
1 Charlotte, featured speaker at the
11 a m. service, chose as the Scrip
tural background for his address
the fifth verse of the 137th Psalm.
"If 1 forget Thee. O. Jerusalem."
Giving an interpretation of the
spirit and purpose of the Lake
Junaluska Assembly, the Bishop
outlined the three phases in the
,! history of this institution as the
; dream of the founders, the period
r of difficulty, and the period of ex
pansion.
i "This institution." lie said, "was
-; born out of a great dream. It was
? first proposed at a layman's mis
' sionary meeting in Chattanooga in
i:1908 No one of the first propon
| ents is alive today. But we remem
' | ber that this Assembly Is the pro
' duct of their dreams, not ours. We
', have received it as a gift and a
', tradition. Of the first Board of
' Commisioners, all have passed'into
? | the Great Beyond, but all of us are
" | their debtors.
1 "Following these beginnings
'; came a period of difficulty; that
' j word is hardly strong enough, it
' was a period of distress. The As
1 sembly was involved in and' em- j
' barrassed by debt. But there was
1 romance even in our difficulties.
It was the continued lovalty of
' faithful people who continued to
come here for fellowship and in- (
sniration?the Iveys. the Herberts, i
the Hollers, the Bankses, the Quil
i lians. and others too numerous to
mention. When we were about to
lose the institution, we rallied to
it. Let us never forget what Or.
Will Lambeth did. He was our
Moses to lead us out of the wilder
ness. I have felt there should be
a memorial to him somewhere on
these grounds. And loyal peoDle
responded in the day of crisis. The
period of peril and distress is over,
and we are now in the day of hope
and expansion.
"The present and the future chal
lenge us. I think the affairs of the
Assembly were never so promising,
materially and spiritually. With
the coming of Methodist union,
these grounds became the property
of the Southeastern Jurisdiction.
The Lambuth Inn and the educa
tional properties have also been
deeded to us. All this makes Juna
luska Methodism's summer capital
in the Southeast. Hither we come,
like the twelve tribes to Jerusa
lem. And all around us are signs
of a romantic past and reminders
of our possibilities. For more than
30 years the Cross has stood on the
hill, lighted symbol of our faith.
By the lake shore is a chapel,
lovely in all its parts, reminding
us of our dear boys and girls who
gave themselves in defense of our
liberties, and casting a hallowing
and churchly influence over the
entire Assembly. Homes dot the
hillsides where our ministers and
! laymen bring their families for the
| summer.
"In the last three years our peo
? pie have contributed nearly a half
| million dollars to make this As
, sembly more worthy of its fine tra
ditions and better prepared for its
task. There are new apartments,
a Children's Building, a new play
ground, paved roads, a bridge that
does not rattle and a tabernacle
that does not leak. This latest
phase of our program has been
made possible by the superb lead
ership of Mr. Edwin Jones. If Will
Lambeth was our Moses to lead us
out of the wilderness, Mr. Jones is
our Joshua who has led us into the
Promised Land.
"It is our custom each year to
give an opportunity to make an
offering to the Assembly's expan
sion. You are here this morning
waiting for that privilege. An ade
quate Youth Center is our next
undertaking. Having completed a
beautiful memorial chapel to our
youth who died, let us now build a
gathering place for our j*outh who
live."
A study of fluid milk showed that
bottled pasteurized milk, properly
refrigerated, had good flavor up
to three or four days after delivery,
hut Its flavor began to get poor
altar five or six days.
Banks Led In Loans To '
North Carolina Farmers
During 1952 North Carolina
farmer* called upon the state's
banks to provide them with more
credit than was extended by any
other type of farm lending agency^
according to Jonathan Woody,
president. First National Bank
here, who represents the North
Carolina Bankers Association' as
Haywood County Key Banker.
Quoting from the twelfth an
nual study of farm lending by the
Agricultural Commission of the
American Bankers Association. Mr.
Woody Rioted that on January 1,
1953, North Carolina banks had
loans totaling *52,905.000 out
standing to farmers, compared
with $17,807,000 held by Fedearl
' Land Banks, who had the second
! largest block of farm loans out
standing.
"As they have in the past, the
state's farmers continued last year
to turn mostly to their banks when
they needed credit," Mr. Woody
said. "The amount of credit the
farmer needs to run a successful
operation is much larger today
than it has been in past decades,'
he continued. "Farming is now a
machanized. highly competitive
enterprise; and operating a profit
able farm involves a much greater
investment in machinery and mod
ern agricultural methods Hence,
adequate funds are a prime con
cern to the farm operator. Meet
ing his needs for operating credit
is one of the most important ser
vices of North Carolina banks."
Of the farm loans held by banks
at the beginning of 1953, $24,885.
000 was in production loans, com
prising credit extended to finance
the growing and marketing of
crops: breeding, raising and fat
tening of livestock, purchasing of
equipment; etc. This figure com
pares with *8.140,000 in produc
tion loans held by Production
Credit Associations, and $7,278.
000 held by the Farmers Home Ad
ministration.
The remaining $28,220,000 in
farm loans outstanding in banks
on January 1 was made up of farm
mortgages. All of the $17,807,000
held by Federal Land Banks was
mortgages: with $13,712,000 in
mortgages being held bv insurance
companies, and $12,157,000 held
by the Farmers Home Administra
tion.
Mr. Woody reported that 212 of
the 225 insured commercial banks
in North Carolina served agri
culture by making credit available
to farmers during 1952.

The Lagging Child Can Profit
From Good Tutorinq In Summer
ly CARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D.
SUPPOSE your child in the
elementary grades is promoted
"on condition," meaning that he
will enter the next grade next
fall if he makes up the arrears
during the summer, or if he
proves during the first several
weeks of September that he can
do the work of this grade. Or
suppose he is promoted, but you
know he lags miserably In one or
several basic subjects.
In any of these Instances, you
might be very wise to employ a
teacher to work with him Indi
vidually for an hour or so a day
during most of the summer. Per
haps you should first have him
studied by a psychologist of your
nearest college or university, or
one recommended by your school.
The findings should be of value
to you and the tutor In planning
a remedial program.
Principal Might Help
Your school principal might be
glad to help you find a good
tutor. I've often thought that If
I were an elementary principal I
would try to Induce certain
teachers to make themselves
available for such service. They
would be teachers with proved
aptitude In studying the needs of
the Individual nuid who lags,
and In guiding him to acquire
the essentials be had failed to
learn In each subject
Unfortunately, not nearlv all
teachers have this aptitude; and
success at tutoring because she
Just sets the child to do what he
already has failed to do well. If,
for example, he has lagged or
failed In the third grade, she has
him do more third grade work
in reading, arithmetic or spell
ing. The tutor who really suc
ceeds best goes back wlih the
child In ar.y subject till she finds
the place where he can do well,
and brings him forward from
there.
Best Learning Level
She may discover, for example,
that this third grade child can
read well only at about the first
grade level. Then she should find
him much Interesting materia)
to read at this level of difficulty,
being careful that It Is not In
fantile In appeal. She can find
attractively Illustrated material
In the public library, as well as
In several of the children's
magazines.
Usually, It's better for this
child to meet the tutor at her
home or elsewhere away from
his home. His program "hould be
so built up as to avoi making
him reel he Is being punished tor
having lagged or failed at school.
Expect to pay a tutor a reason
able fee. It will be good Invest
ment, even If It should mean
great financial sacrifice to you.
No matter how smart you are
yourself, you may not be a good
tutor of your own child. If you
attempt It. first be sure yov can
| always be very calm and patient,
I and never let your voloe rise.
