HELP THE CRIPPLED
CHILDREN
The Pitt County Chapter of the
Crippled Children Society of North
Carolina is ??kmg its appeal to the
people of this county for contribu
tions to sustain and enlarge the
work of the organisation.
Certainly, every adult will serious
ly consider thia opportunity to share
in giving' new hope to hundreds of
unfortunate children whose pathetic
plight fails to move us to more gen
erous gifts merely because we do not
come into direct contact with their
need.
Parents of children, who happen to
be sound of limb, can express their
gratitude by making a contribution
to ease the affliction of some leas
fortunate child. Every adult, who
has enjoyed normal physical growth,
ought to be glad to have a part in
extending assistance to the crippled
children who face life under great
handicaps.
APRIL, OUR MONTH OF
WAR
It is now April, our nation's month
of war! '
Three times, in the same month,
the United States has begun to fight.
The twelfth is the anniversary of
the shot at Fort Sumter that began
four years of bloody strife. The
twenty-fifth maris our declaration
of war against Spain and the sixth
is the anniversary of our entry into
the World War.
Once more, in 1941, the United
States faces more than the possibili
ty of warfare. As Spring comes to
the nation, to give it gladness, the
threat of hostilities adds a touch of
sadness.
There is some comfort in the
thought that the people of the Unit
ed States have seen the way they
should walk. They have reaffirmed
their stand for the freedom of men,
regardless of the danger that the
course entails.
The world, be it recalled, was not
meant to be the mausoleum of human
hope, the grave of human faith and
the cemetery of human personality.
It simply is not ordained. Those who
seek to plunge humanity into the
darker barbarisms of earlier eras
wage a battle as fruitless as the ef
fort of Winter to obliterate the re
birth of nature, that comes with
Spring and warms the heart of man.
SELF-CONFIDENCE
It's not the question of whether you
will or you wont,
But it's just the thought of whether
you do it or don't,
So stick your chest out and pull your
chin in,
And then's the time youH begin to
win.
Don't ever give up for are
oft made,
Don't let anything discourage you
and never be afraid,
Just think of it often and keep it in
And victory, I'm sure, will be easy to
find.
IVe found that the hardest problems
are the easiest to do,
So never let a hard problem get the
beat of you,
Whether ifs math, money, dctai?,
or love,
You can conquer it m mm as thereto
a heaven shorn
When you are able to take as much
Then that the day 70uH begin to
lha ? ,
So never 1st your amhitfrne become
as if dead, , -A
And never fat suocecs 90 to jma
head.

1940 flue-cured growers of about

Bailer proposal.
Development of new export mar
kets in South America for North
Ccrolina's mounting tobacco stocks
is proposed in a bill introduced to
day by Senator Joaiah W. Bailey.
The legislation would authorise
the Secretary of Commerce to make
an investigation, in cooperation with
the Department of State and Agri
culture, of "Ways and means of pro
moting the sale and use throughout
South America and Central Ameri
ca of tobacco produced .in the
United States." -
A total of 150,000 would be ap
propriated to carry on the study,
and the funds would be allocated
among the three departments.
This is similar to a bill which the
North Carolinian introduced near
the close of the last Congress and
which failed to receive considera
tion. It has been referred to the
Senate commerce committee, of
which Bailey is chairman, and is
expected to receive a favorable re
port shortly.
Loss of European markets makes
it imperative that near outlets for
?American type tobacco he develop
ed in this hemisphere, Senator Bailey
stated. Pointing to tits loir con
sumption of American tobacco in tfki
countries to the south. ?
