Railroads, Postoffices Suggest Mailing Early The raihwads of America and the United States Postoffice De partment are again this Christmas season cooperating in a joint ef fort to speed the delivery of what is anticipated to be the largest Christmas mail load in the history of the department, Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield announced today. "The Association of American Railroads," Mr. Summerfield said, "is emphasizing to all its mem ber railroads the vital need for publicizing the 'Mail Early' cam paign incident to the handling of the heavy Christmas holiday mails. "The Postoffice Department has, in turn, advised the postmasters of the nation to work closely with radio and TV stations and local newspapers in order to point out to postal patrons the need for nailing early their Christmas cards and parcels." Spot announcements made over loud speaker systems in railroad stations will once again fhis year remind the thousands of people Jv POM R&N FURNITURE CO. PHONE 6 341? 1211 BRIDGES ST. MOREHEAD CITY passing through these stations of the advantages and need for early Christmas mailings. In addition, the association has suggested that the "Mail Early" theme be included on advertising matter, such as posters placed in cars, special dining car menus and, if possible, in connection with any advertising that might be done by any individual railroad. "This fc a splendid example," the Postmaster General pointed out, "of an important segment of the transportation industry work ing closely with the Postoffice De partment for the benefit of all our citizens. The railroads of America are to be complimented for this display of genuine in terest in the welfare of our citi zens." Navy Experiments With Speedy Hydrofoil Craft Norfolk, Va. (AP) The Navy is experimenting with some fast flying hydrofoil eraft which look like small planes which never take off. The Navy isn't convinced that there is a mission for them- they make 75 mile* per heur on (or over) water. They are powered by two aireraft engines. They ride on three foil-equipped struts, one under each wing and the tail. Wa ter flowing across the foil* pro vides the lift to skim the surface. They make twice the speed of conventional craft with the same power. > athome... ?' or far away this is the gift thai brings you nmarmr Brings you nearer to dear ones far away, nearer to a heart close to your own.

NEW SOME Uomr Afeni Asii?fc?t CmU A|rit During this week, all of tb* 4 H Clubs in Carteret County have met. with the exception of Beau fort. The meetings have been good. When you sew. it Is necessary to use proper took* for best re sults' That was the keynote of the Junior 4-H Club meetings. The girls of the Junior clubs are be ginning their first lessons in learn ing to sew correctly, and the first requirement they learned, is to use proper tools correctly. They saw a suggested sewing box with the proper sewing tools arranged in it. They had dis cussed with them the difference in tools classified as gadgets or gimmicks and those that are con sidered necessities. The necessary tools demonstrated to those Sth and 6th grade girls included scis sors and shears. We learned that scissors are shorter and have a ring handle both the same size with blades less than 6 inches in length, whereas the shears blades are from 5 to 15 inches long and the handles are bent. Sharp, slender needles of me dium length (sites 7 to 9) are a good choice for most fabrics and threads. An assorted package of needles is good but do not buy or use those that contain needles too large or too small. Needles may be kept in a needle book made out of wool flannel that will keep them from rusting. Many of the 4 H girls will make their own needle books. In buying pins, buy 15 or 16 if bought in a box or if bought by package, buy size SC. The pins too, should be sharp and slender and medium in length. Pins may be kept in a box or in a pin cushion. An emery bag is almost a must in our climate. The purpose of this bag is to sharpen and remove rust and tarnish from pins and needles. The thimble should be used with the first stitches. It not only pro tects your finger but helps you do a better job. Be sure it fits and is not too heavy, and wear it on the middle finger of the right hand (or left, if you are left handed). The tape-line is another begin ner's tool that helps even the lirst sewing have that professional look. The tape measure assures accuracy- the eye sometimes de ceives us. When sewing, we find we use contrasting thread for basting and matching thread for stitching. We also learned that not all thread is made of cotton so when we use the term "cotton" meaning thread, we are not always right. So we will call it thread and be correct even if it is made of silk, nylon, "Dacron," or mercerized cotton. The Intermediate 4-H Club* saw sample sweater collars they can make and a short demonstration on choosing correct styles for dif ferent type people. They also saw the fitted sewing box, plus added equipment for their experience. In the Senior 4-H Club groups, the discussion and demonstration was centered on "Q's to U for Correct Dress." Artist sketches were used to show that a closet full of clothes is not the determin ing factor in a girl's good looks. Neither is the amount of money she spends on clothes. It's how good she is in selecting things which go together and look good that counts. Regardless of cost and amount of clothes on hand, the best wardrobes are those built around a definite plan. We saw right before our eyes one basic dark dress ehanged into eight different outfits. Knowing what to wear, how to acquire it at a minimum cost, and when to wear it correctly, is an accom plishment these 4-H'ers are mak ing great strides in. The Senior 4 H Club girls will probably be seen wearing many and varied types of sweater col lars made from the patterns they are gettnig at club meetings. These might slso be included on your gift list for Christmas. They can be made from the scrap bag in many cases and will therefore keep you ia better finanelal stsad School Children Prove They Con Save Money Fall River, Mass.
