Adding extra excitement to this last meal was special guest. Super intendent H. L. Joslyn. Doughnuts, anyone? Home Ec groups are becoming experts in the art of doughnut making since their FHA club presented them with an automatic deep fat fryer. With all the recent cooking ex periments. it has been generally conceded that the Home Ec classes are certainly the ones to join. After PTA on Tuesday night, the foods classes continued to enjoy the punch left from that refresh ment hour. Kven the sixth period Study hall held in the Home Ec department got in on that one. Heme Ec girls who served these *TA refreshments Tuesday night were Barbara Piner, Sarah Jones and Barbara Taylor. High salesman for the past week in the selling of flavoring was Jane Safrit. Dot Jarman was high sales man for the past week. Martha Ransome and Barbara Downum served on the devotional and lunch committees this past week.

Instead of spring cleaning, there is spring sewing. The next unit to be taken up is a unit on "Marriage and Family Liv ing." The Senior Panel did go on the air. Interested listeners were un able to hear senior views on that highly controversial Bricker Amendment. But . . . it was jinxed. Everyone who was involved knows it was jinxed. Last Friday's trou bios were almost inconsequential to those- which followed. Monday began _ the tape re corders were ready but no time to make a tape. On Tuesday the first tape recorder went into action A tape was made. How did it sound? Perfect! There was just one thing Its recording speed had been too slow for a radio playback. Another tape was made. Only angels and archangels saved the recorder from being bashed to bits by frustrated panel members. This time the tape groaned into a beginning, distorted every voice, and whined mockingly until the pnd. Then news ? "Your trouble is that there is an improper amount of current coming through to you. One minute there is the full dis tribution. The next there Isn't." "Til Wednesday" said the panel. On Wednesday three recorders were put into action. Three re corders, several tapes, and nervous breakdowns later, a tape was ready to be delivered to the radio station Then there was the problem of who should be brave enough to de fy destiny and deliver what had never seemed destined to be, the tape on the Bricker Amendment. Once again Wayne Kinf came through. He made it to the radio station. Was that the end? Of course not! The tape refused to give a normal playback on the sta tion's excellent machine. Then an old tape recorder was produced to meet the emergency.

C wm played on Saturday morning at nine thirty It will be hard to believe this decision has not come as a direct result of the strange adventures ot the panel on the Bricker Amend ment, but it didn't ? there will be no more Senior Panels Because of an already overbusy schedule, it has been decided that the Senior Panels will be discontinued for the remainder of the year. Many thanks to WMBL for mak ing these Senior programs possible. It was an enriching experience for I the Seniors to have this new learn ! ing area opened for them.

Fulcher's first grade has been busy the past month. The class worked hard for the March of Dimes drive, winning the $5 prize offered for the grade raising the most money. Mrs. Fulcher's class raised $71.50, of which they are very proud. In the early part of the month the class worked on the chapel program presented Feb. 9 for the children and for the PTA. The play was "Practicing for a Chapel Program." Playing the part of the Teacher was Mary Lee Gibbs, David Mc GeHee gave the Bible reading, and the dancer with the Rhythm Band was Florence Wilkins.

C. per cent of the difference between the purchase and selling prices. It is evident from the above that one retiring and moving to North Carolina to make his residence is subject to a heavy state tax load on his income from the Intangible Personal Property Tax. Moreover the income from the securities taxed is again subject I to tax under the North Carolina State Income Tax. This is a tax on net income starting at the rate of % per cent on the first $2,000 of income and increasing to the rate of 7 per cent on an amount ov er $10,000 Today an income of $5,000 a year is not considered great wealth, but rather an amount on which one re tiring can live in some comfort, l-et us assume a married man re tires and moves to North Caro lina who has an income of $5,000 which he has accumulated through out his lifetime with the princi pal invested in a combination of stocks and bonds to yield 5 per cent. In this case, his principal would ho $100,000, income $5,000. Intan gible Personal Property Tax $250.00. His income tax would be: 2,000 ? 3' < on $2,000 Tax $60 00 4 "< on $1,000 Tax 40.00 5,000 100.00 a tax of $100.00. Adding this to his Intangible Personal Property Tax of $250 makes a total tax on his income of $5,000 of $350 00 or 7 per cent and instead of having $5,000 to live on each year he would have his income reduced by taxes of the State of North Caro lina to $4,650. A married man with an income of $10,000 would have these taxes increased to $860.00 or 8.6 per cent. There can be no doubt that such a high income tax will tend to cause a man to hesitate and look around at the tax situation in other states before deciding to retire in North Carolina. Some years ago to encourage retirement in that state, Florida publicized the fact th.it income and inheri tance taxes were low there. As North Carolina i ; encouraging people to move here for retire ment, the effect of the income tax laws should be carefully studied. As the Variety Vacation Land, North Carolina has much to inter est one to become a permanent res ident here upon retiring. Acres of waterfront and inland property are undeveloped, many ideal for retirement home sites. It is very probable that the income tax sit uation is helping to keep these va cant. =Tl SEW AND SAVE WEEK SPECIAL LAWN DRESS MATERIAL 39^ yd. 36" Wide ? Floral Patterns UNBLEACHED MUSLIN 23? yd.
