By Dr. Sophia Branaw Farm Buying: Power Drops People who are. worried about the tact that farm income is increasing might take notice of the ' following ' figures: Vy-r' "Farm income in October, 1947, was sJOJJ per cent above October, 1946, but the increase , was not sufficient to off set the 16.5 per cent rise in the prices f goods which the farmers bought" "As a result," said the Alexander Hamilton Institute, "the farmers' pur chasing power showed a drop of 4.7 per cent below the level of a year ago. This trend, if continued, will be coma a factor making for a curtail ment of manufacturing activity." Physical Education Vital In Schools Physical education is beginning to receive greater attention in the pub lic schools and leading-educators go so far as. to say that the health of school children should be placed on a par with their mental development. The emphasis is not misplaced. While the ' schools of Perquimans County, have shown' signs of realizing the vital importance of proper physi cal, development for pupils, the sur face has been scratched, not, cultivat ed, and there exists vast room for a more comprehensive program. The present concept of physical education goes much ' further than producing athletes and embraces all means of building healthy bodies for - healthy minds.' It is intended to of fer supervised athletic opportunities to every boy and girl in the school system,' by which they will be en couraged to participate in games and acquire the full benefits that flow - , from competitive sports. F. D. It's Birthday The birthday of Franklin D. Roose velt, thirty-second President of the United States, which occurs on Janu . ary 30th, is the occasion for a nation wide effort to raise funds to fight against infantile paralysis. Since 1933, the birthday of the war leader has been celebrated by birth day balls throughout the nation. . The proceeds go to the fight against the disease from, which this great Ameri can suffered. ( f The occasion also serves the pur pose of permitting Americans to re-' , fleet upon the life and 'works' of the only man to be elected President of the United States on more "than two . occasions. Mr, Roosevelt, during his terms of office, faced some of the greatest emergencies which have ever - throatpniw) rhi rntintrv. V:": It is too much to expect that every American, regardless of partisan af - , filiations, will be able to praise his ac complishments in the field of domes tic legislation. - It should be possible, however, for all of us to recognize the transcendent service that he rendered t this country' in his war leadership. '. Taxes, State And Federal . .The forty-eight State. Governments of the Union will collect, hi the preg- ent fiscal year, more than six and one half billion ' dollars to set a new . record for State tax collections. -The sum that the State govern- - ments collect can be compared witn the tax-collection of the Federal Gov ernment, which will probably aggre- ' gate six times as much.- . - With these monetary figures in mind, it is easy to see why the Fed eral. Government gradually encroach as upon the authority and functions v, of the State governments.;5' Nothing would do so much for the re-estab- ' lishment of States' rights as a tax plan which, would ' take some of the money from the Federal Government and make it available to the States. ' .;. , One way to accomplish this, and ' probably the easiest way, would ' be to require, the Federal Government to distribute among the States a definite - percentage of all income tax collec-"-. tions. At present; the Federal Gov ernment collects close- to thirty bil- J lion dollars from individuals and cor- ; If one-fourth "of the total , take could ,be apportiond t the." various, Stajei, ' the distribution. wouH t-'te car of practically alt State functions. . Even allowing for soma e :i)anion of the. activities of tS Stata Cernmenta, there would h. w i f r cc.r rabl tax reduction in Vu, various Siatee CARE OF THE SKIN In regard to ' the importance of ... . . m . . J. .11 daily cieansings oi uie lace, h is weu to bear in mind that dangerous germs are always present in the normal skin, especially in the folds around the hair follicles and in the oil glands about the nose and back. , As a rule they do ho harm but are capable of causing serious infections . u a per son's skin becomes broken or abraded, or the vitality is ; for any reason lowered. When the skin is kept in a healthy condition, face powder-is a great aid to beauty. It removes the shiny ap pearance, so sought after by the Af rican, but deprecated by the Cauca sian. It also partially conceals minor defects such as discolorations and so forth. The powder does not clog the pores and cause blackheads if removed at night by cream or by washing the face. In fact it really acts as a pro tection, or covering against biting winds and direct rays of the sun. The foundation lotion or cream prevents the powder from coming off and gives the skin a softer and more velvety, sheen. During the day if you wish to freshen your appearance, lie down for a short period, if you have time, close the eyes and relax every muscle in your body. Fall asleep if you can. On awakening take a short, hot bath finishing with a dash of cold water. Rub with a crash towel until the whole body is glowing from the friction. Put some fresh lotion on your face and remove excess with a soft towel. Breathe in all the air that' your lungs will hold. Attempt to expel it with resistance. The cheeks will puff out, the lungs and throat become tense, and the blood will rake through the body, causing the cheeks to flush with the glow of health When you are slowly letting out the breath while resisting, tap the face, neck, and throat with the fingers playing a sharp rat a tap, tap, - on the tensed muscles. Now put on your powder and other make up that you choose; you will not only, feel alive and rested, you will look as fresh as when you started out in the morning after a refreshing night s sleep and a good breakfast.
