Officer Ernest E. Pressley, of the Charlotte Police Department, who is now presenting his famous traffic
dog safety show to all the school childreOb North Carolina under the sponsorship of the North Carolina State
Automobile Association, announces that his Junior Traffic Safety Club has swelled its membership in the State
to more than 100,000. He estimates that by the end of 1047 more than 200,000 boys and girls will have passed
his stiff traffic safety examinations and will have become members of his Junior Traffic Safety dub. Local
civic groups interested in having the show presented in the Farmville school are invited to write the North
Carolina State Automobile Association, Inc., Selwyn Hotel Building, Charlotte. .All expenses are paid by the
sponsoring organisation.
tin* the Legion headquarters will
mean, because the Legion is always
an ever alert vigilant guardian of
the rights of Americans, a guaran
tee of the constitution. . . an ever
ready contributor to the welfare of
the whole community. . . a support
er and helpmate to the youth of the
State through its athletic program,
Boy Scout, Americanism, child wel
fare, and aid to widows and or
phans of those who died that free
dom might live."
It was emphasized that the head
quarters will not be reserved exclu
sively for Legionnaires, pointing out
that any veteran may feel free to
visit headquarters at any time for
advisement and assistance with his
or her problems..
In World War II, the Third Unit

combat farther in less time than
any other army in history.

CECAL COCCIDOSIR
THREAT. IN SPRING
An extremely prevalent disease in
chickens at this time of year is cecal
coccidioeis, an acute infection caused
by microscopic, one-cell organisms
called coccima. This disease attacks
chicks and growing birds on what is
practically a nation-wide scale. Oc
currence of cecal coccidiosis is most
frequent in the spring and early
summer. ,' , ?
This acute form of coccidiosis ap

birds may lose appetite, appear list

show other general symptoms of in
fection. The first positive symptom
of cecal ooccidiosis is bloody drip
pings; these come from hemorrhag
ing of the ceca, where the infection
localises.
f,.. Cecal coccidiosis may spread swift'
ly through the flock. In the event
of an outbreaM,fhe flockowner
should act immediately to check the
spread. This may be accomplished
by giving the flock certain arsenic
