Advertising rates furnished by request. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1949. Get Yourself X-Rayed The next 30 days will be important ones for the residents of Perquimans County. It will be the time when every person 15 years of age or over can be X-rayed free of charge and help in one of the greatest fights against tuberculosis ever waged here. Our District Health Department, in cooperation with the Perquimans TB Seal f Committee, has arranged for mobile X-ray units to visit our county to make it easy for us to have an X-ray taken o determine whether or not we may be a vistim of this dis ease. This is an opportunity that every person should seize for it will not only help the Health Department to determine TB in early stages but think of the peace of mind you as an individual can obtain by knowing you are free of the disease -that itself, is worth the few minutes it will take to have the chest X-ray made. Getting the picture made is no trouble either. All you do is to step into the unit, have the picture snap ped and leave. The Health Depart ment will notify you personally as to the results found in the picture. The mobile units will be located in every section of the county during the next few weeks, take time to visit one of these units and help fight tu berculosis. Get yourself X-rayed. He Livca On C3 A VccIr . "I want ao help from any source, public or private," is the declaration of Albert Enoch, according to a news paper dispatch, telling how the 6T year-old chemist n living in .Lob Angeles for $6 a week, including f 3.75 a week for a hotel room. , - . We doubt if many Americana can live as - economically as Enoch. everybody knows that tremendous sums are expended by the average person to keep up with his neighbors. Life, in its basic essentials is com paratively simple, but the gadgets and. extras that modern civilization demands cost money. ' - We have no idea how seriously one should take the etory about Mr. En och, sent out by the Associated Press. It may be a newspaper man's idea of a good yarn. On the other hand, it may be something approaching a true story of a man who has disciplin ed himself to want a few of the ex tras in life. Anyway; there is a point to be con sidered in Mr. Enoch's quest for work for which he m fitted. Admitting that he is unable to compete with "young er men in stamina," the chemist says thai "an old man's head is a store house of knowledge" and that- "in other civilizations, this treasure of the aged could find a market" r 1 v; Undoubtedly, this U a timely ob servation. It should be borne in mind by those who employ workers, Some employees have much to recommend them to those seeking capable lead ership from ambitious and intelligent associates, but nonetheless, many em ployers could use the experience, poise and balance of older employees with profit Classified and Legals FEMALE HELP WANTED EX perienced saleslady, prefer one with knowledge of buying.

Buying Early Pays Once again the people of Perquim ans County are doing their Christ mas buying and the merchants of this county are vising with '.each other in attracting shoppers. The Weekly has repeatedly urged the people of thU county to trade at ho.ne and at this time wishes to em phc&ize the fact that local buyers can secure practically anything they want from the stores here. Meanwhile, let us again urge all buyers to start early and make their purchases as quickly as convenient. Besides the comfort of being able to shop leisurely $nd avoid the last-minute rushes, the . buyer js assured of a better selection in' making Ms pur chases. We feel sure-that merchants and . their employees will appreciate the early shoppers and. will give them special consideration " NOTICE OP ADMINISTRATION Having qualified as Executrix of he estate of Miss Belle P.

Reed, research economist, who says that manufacturing output has shown a steady monthly decline this year despite the fact that consumers have gone on buying at remarkably high levels. Dr. Reed says that retail inventor ies are, in many cases, too low to per mit wide choice of merchandise and that when we consider the increased population of the country and the present high prices in which, inven tories are reported, it is t apparent that they are strikingly low. For msny products, he reports, retail sales are exceeding present production rates. : This is an interesting survey of manufacturing production ! in this country. It seems that through "dire and inexcusable pessimism" the 'manu facturers : of the "'nation cut down production and some business enter - prises made a determined "effort to reduce inventories. Nevertheless, 'fiiej jhnvftra atrilrA has rtni naonfiaYiveAlx and the production curve, it is be lieved, is beginning to go forward. - Dr. Reed points out that savings are the largest and best distributed in history, that incomes are larger and mors equitably distributed and that the total liquid assets of indi VMuahs and business concerns are about $235,000,000,000, with about $207,000,000,000 in the hands of in : diviauals. '':;.; Consequently, the research expert concludes that manufacturers must speed up production or face a loss of , sales through dangerously low retail ' stocks. Consumers may be waiting for better values but they do not lack r buying power, according to this ex pert, who say ; that better values most be made available and 'that any other course is short-sighted and "not in keeping- with the ingenuity American enterprise.". .
