North Carolina Towns
Still Eligible to Join
tiie Food Stamp Plan
Other North Carolina areas still
ere eligible for participation in the
food stamp plan in addition to Wake,
Mecklenburg, Guilford counties and
the cities of Charlotte, Raleigh,
Greensboro and High Point in which
the program is now operating, A. E.
Langs ton, State director of commodi
ty distribution, said yesterday.
Langston's statement came in re
sponse to an announcement by Sec
retary of Agriculture Henry A. Wal
lace on the first anniversary of es
tablishment of the program that the
plan is now operating in 68 areas
.with 12 additional areas already de
signed for future operation.
"Any locality in North Carolina
interested in joining in the new
method of distribution of surplus
commodity products to its needy
should get to work through the prop
er channels to have their counties
included in the 125 more areas of fu
ture operation," Langs ton said
If smaller towns are chosen by the
Federal Surplus Commodity Corpor
ation for the 3tamp plan about 150
additional areas will be selected, he
explained
The State director quoted Secre
tary Wallace to the effect that the
full effect of the program upon farm
income probaby would not be reach
ed untii a nearer approach to com
plete national coverage is attained
LangBton said Wallace did not expect
this goal to be reached in less than
two years.
The stamp plan of distributing sur
plus commodities to needy people was
begun in Rochester, N. Y., May 16,
1939.
DR. JONES HAS OUTSTANDING
FIELD OF WHEAT HERE
R. B. Bennett, County Farm
agent, informs us that he recently
" j ?? ic
THE KENNEDY HOME HIGH SCHOOL CHORUS
: i?0 , i
~ - i
visited an outstanding field of wheat
produced on Dr. Paul Jones' farm at
Farmville by Bennie Wooten, his
tenant
Bennie did a good job in prepar
ing the seed bed, which is very im
portant in securing a stand and
growth, and seeded the wheat by
hand. _ A perfect stand was secured.
The crop grew off well and will reach
maturity in a few days.
This field of wheat is well worth
a visit and it will be interesting to
watch a combine harvest the golden
grain when it is ripe.
Bennie is also conducting an ex
periment with cynimid for weed
control on tobacco beds. He reports
he did not have to pick one bed which
he treated and which is planted along
side other beds not treated but which
were picked. He expects to continue
this experiment and hopes to have
some interesting results to report.
The way Congressmen start inves
tigations you would think they know
nothing.
C. L. Ivey, Scout Master, and some of his Boy Scouts
The meeting of the Boy Scout
Troop, No. 25, was held Friday night
at 7:30 o'clock with the Scoutmaster,
C. L. Ivey presiding.
The Farmville Negro Scout Troop
attended our meeting and as they
were new in scouting, we showed
them how we conduct our meetings.
We quoted the Scout Law, Oath and
Pledge to the flag. *
After the business was taken care
of we let the Negro Scouts show us
their form or a Scout meeting. Fol
lowing the singing of a few songs
and j>erforming several stunts, the
meeting was adjourned with the
Scout benediction. The meeting clos
ed at 9:45 o'ctock.

Kennedy Home Group
To Sing Here Sunday
The Kennedy Home High School
Chorus is to sing at the Baptist
morning service, Sunday in the City
Hall. This group of singers have
won for themseves a unique place
in the heart of the people oyer
North Carolina. Just over a year
ago they sang in the Mosque The
atre, Richmond, Virginia, before the
Southern Baptist Convention. They
have broadcast over many of the ra
dio stations of the state. One of the
leading announcers recently said:
"They are the first group I've heard
that could sing anything, and con
sistently stay on pitch."
Pat Alderman is Director of
the Chorus
The Chorus numbering forty-three
voices, ranging in ages from 12
years through 17, have a somewhat
unique appeal in their splendid ren
ditions and marvelous repertoire. The
Chorus is- able to sing a four pro
gram of music from memory. Many
of the arrangements are made by
Miss Verna Blow, Accompanist.
Included in the list of numbers
sung by the chorus are: "Sanctus"
and "Sand Out Thy Light" by Gou
nod, "The Heavens Resound" and
"Judge Me 0 God" by Beethoven,
"The Lord's Prayer" Forsyth-Kraft,
"O Lord Most Holy" Frank, "Largo"
and "Halleujah Chorus" by Handel,
"Recessional" Kipling-DeKoven, The
Oratorio "Redeemer" Dickinson,
"The Crucifixion" Stainer, many
numbers by Shelley and several Bach
Chorals.
These boys and girls work on a
large farm in eastern Carolina,
learing the practical side of living
and coloring that with the develop
ment of the beauty of learn to make
live a life along with learing to make
a living. They will be heard at the
11 o'clock Sunday morning service of
the Baptist Church held in City Hall.
Never be in a hurry about improv
ing your fellow-men; the human race
is slow-moving aggregation.

Success in what you are doing to

Doesn't mean that your work is

No one should be contented with

In the station that God has put

Contentment may be a virtue of

It's just how you feel, how you
care,

Let us take what we've gained and

The success we've made, let it be,
Just the starting point to the wider

To the fields that are open and
free,
And filled to the fullest with grow

That are ours to have as our
own, ' .
No efforts is lost if we use each one
As another stepping stone.
