THE HAPPY TIMES Newspaper for Boys and Girls K't Story time The Dog and His Shadow Once upon a time there was a big dog, and the butcher gave him a bone. He took the bone ia hia mouth and walked through the atreeta, feeling very proud. He held his head high, and his tail very stiff. He did not look to the right nor to the left. TTw^lttle dogs ran behind him and barked They said: "Please let us smell of your bene." But the big dog would not atop. He wasted to sit down and eat his bone alone. He would not let the hangry little dogs even smell of It. Then he thought that he would bury the bone. He went on and on a long way. He wanted to find a place where no one would see it. There he would bury his bone and dig it up some other day to eat. At last the big dog had gone farther than the town. He came to a clear brook. A board was laid across the brook for a bridge. The big dog started across the bridge, holding the bone more tightly. "There is no dog here to sec me," he (aid J ml a> be aet foot on the bridge he m* another do t This dog had a bona in hit mouth, lie seemed to be running along on top ot the water. "Who ia that dog?" he said to himself. When he stood still, the dog on the water stood still. When he went on, the other dog went on. When he turned his head, the dog in the water turned his bead. "I do not like that dog," said the big dag. "1 shall take his bone away from him." The big dog leaned over the edge of the water. He opened his mouth very wide to take away the bone from the dog in the water. Splash! The tag dog's bone fell down in the water. There was no other dog In the water. It was the big dog's shadow. The bone sailed away where be could not reach it. He had no booe became be had been selfish. ?Carolyn Sherwin Bailey Four Boys, Girl are First To Enroll in Birthday Club We art happy to welcome to our Birthday Club Freeman Szerok man, age 11, who lives on the Beaufort Causeway, Dannie Wayne Rolison, 11, who lives in Beaufort; Janice Shray, 2311 Fisher St., Morehead City, and Danny and Sammy Taylor, Sea Level.

These may sur prise you: For years celery was not used as food. It was principally used for medicine and was calle'd "smaHage." Wheat is said to be one of the oldest cultivated foods. It has been found in the tombs of ancient Egyptians. Archaeologists have found crude milling devices and wheat kernels that are older than our recorded history. Tomatoes were considered to be poison, and were not eaten as food until receat years. The first iceberg lettuce grown in this country was produced in 1901 from seed that had been brought over from France. Last Timet Today Wednesday - Thurtday GARY MERRILL NAN DAVIS hi "CRASH LANDING" -Pta? ? COMEDY ? SPORTS CARTOON Texas Legislature Spends Busy Day Austin, Tex. (AP)? "Hie Texas House of Representative! held a busy 45-minute session recently. In formally approved resolutions, the House : 1. Wished Rep. Louis Anderson a happy birthday; 2. Congratulated the Baylor University football team on winning the Sugar Bowl game; 3. Wished Miss Wanda Gann of Waco good luck in a tv appear ance; 4. Defeated a proposal that 35 cents found under the speaker'* ' desk go to the Appropriations Com- j mittee; S. Cava the 35 tents t* Uncle Henry, the House porter; and 6.

This u the, tint billion ddUar loss In the coua try's history. An average of at least one human being died every hour of every day? U, Mo fatalities in all during the year. "In ti)ia ate of gigantic, peace time federal budgets, a billion dol lar fire loss seems vaguely insig nificant to the main causes of this enormous waste? men, women and children," says S. A. Chalk Jr., of the Chalk Insurance Agency. "However," Mr. Chalk continues, "there are 11,300 people who did realize the full impact of this fire damage, for they died in these fires? a pathetic and priceless loss to their families." Approximately SO per cent of last year's fire deaths ? 5,650 ? resulted from home fires. On the average then, at least IS people die by fire in their homes each day of the year. Killed by Carelessness "Just imagine fifteen helpless, trapped occupants in a separate home burning every day of the year," Mr. Chalk emphasizes. These otherwise responsible citi zens lock themselves on their own funeral pyre by carelessness and unconcern for the hazardous con ditions in their own homes. Until such dangerous conditions are corrected by homeowners themselves, we will continue to produce the same statistics, he continued. Spring cleaning is just around the corner. When you clean, dust, wash and paint this year, why not satisfy yourself that your home and your family won't be included in the national fire-loss statistics next year? One -third of all fires are in buildings and nearly five out of ten fires are in dwellings. About a quarter of all building dollar fire losses are in dwellings. Home Hazards What are the major home haz ards which cause these wanton deaths and damages? Mr. Chalk says there are three factors re spossible for two-thirds of home fine* These are: (1) smoking and matches, (2) heating defects and (S) misuse of electricity. TOorehead NOW PLAYING "TRULY CARTERET'S FINEST THEATRE" I ROCK HUDSON -JENNIFER JONES VrTTORIO DESK* SPECIAL FEATURE TIMES: Dally at 1:M ? 4iW ? ?:M P.M. Situ-day al M :? A.M. ? 1:30 ? 4:J0 - 7:30 P.M. Since fire strikes most frequently by these three distinct causes, take thu epportvnity to eliminate them by questioning your own home i*ftey, he advises. First, control the use of cig arettes and matches in your home ? if there are unsafe ash trays in uae, replace them. Second, have your flues, chim ney! and heating appliances checked by a beating inspector. Third, let an electrician usees your electrical circuits and ap pliances. There are many contractors who will provide free surveys far your home. Remember, after these three strike*, you're eut ? of your home! Woman Practicm Driving In H?r Yard for Years Shelby, N. C.
