If : ou happen to have a child
attending Central Elementary
Bchool, you've no doubt been listen
ing to rave notices about the chili
that Mrs, Verna Gray Hopkins pre
pares for the days when hot dogs
are on the menu.
If local small fry had their
way, they would never have a
school lunch that didn’t include
hot dogs. As it is, they get them
about once every 10 days, in keep-

ing with efforts to provide a bal
anced diet.
Mrs. Hopkins, who has two chil
dren of her own, manages the
Central lunchroom. She takes her
job mighty seriously, and the
youngsters she feeds are quite
aware of that fact.
This is her fifth year in charge
of the lunchroom, and prior to that
she worked as one of the assistants.
Each summer she heads for Wom
an’s College in Greensboro, where
she avails herself of every avail
able course in dietetics,
Although her formal'^Seducation
ended when she received her high
school diploma, she holds her own
with graduate dieticians whenever
she takes a course' at Woman’s
college. This summer, for example,
she got an A for the course she
took.
Unless we miss our guess, she
probably learned to make the
'tow'ii’s most-talked-about chili be
fore she ever darkened the door
of a college classroom. One thing
is for sure, local mothers could
do worse than get her recipe.
There are other tasty items that
she cooks up, of course, as she
goes about the business of pleasing
kids and keeping their menus
wholesome at one and the same
time. Nothing, however, approaches
the popularity of her incomparable
chili. . .
Nematodes, which reduce the
value of the tobacco crop in North
Carolina an estimated $15 to $20
million each year, can be reduced
considerably by the use of cer
tain fall cultural practices, accord
ing to Ralph Sasser, assistant farm
agent for Duplin county.
Sasser said farmers should cut
tobacco stalks as soon as possible
after harvest and turn the stubbles
in such a manner as to expose as
many roots as possible to the sun
and wind.
“If these fall cultural practices
are followed along with soil fumi
gation in the spring and a good
crop rotation, farmers should have
fair success in controlling nema
todes,” he declared.
The assistant agent said there
are many tobacco fields where the
stalks are left standing for a long
time after harvest, thus increasing
the population of nematodes in the
soil. He also pointed out that to
bacco roots damaged by nematodes
increase the danger of black shank
and other diseases.

TO POLISH WOOD FURNITURE
—The no-rub method: Use a no
rub furniture polish, shake well,
and carefully dampen a clean, lint-
free pad or cloth with the polish.
Wipe surface with long strokes.
Then, when the polish has dried to
a white haze (this takes almost no
time at all), wipe off immediately
with a clean, dry cloth. No rubbing
will be necessary and the wood will
have a bright, long-lasting finish.

Sunday morning in Jerusalem
beside a skull-shaped hill which
may have been Golgotha and near
an empty tomb which may have
been the very one from which
Christ rose! We were in the garden
known as the Garden Tomb. We
had examined it and Taken pic
tures of it and heard why many
think it the scene of the death and
resurrection of Joius Christ. Now
we were having a service together
—just our group. They had invited
the two ministers to lead the serv
ice. We sang “In The Garden,”
“The Old Rugged Cross,” and “In
The Cross of Christ I Glory,” all
from memory. We read the gospel’s
account of the events. Dr. T. Lay-
ton Fraser, of the department of
Bible of Presbyterian College, Clin
ton, S. C., brought a devotional mes
sage. We joined in prayer, ending
with the Lord’s Prayer.
God’s message of life and love in
Jesus Christ! What a wonderful
gift to the world!
On the way home som,e of us
stopped by St. George Cathedral
for a communion service.
“And this is eternal life, that
they know thee the only' true God,
and Jesus Christ whom thou hast
sent.’’ (John 17:3).

wax way, pour a small quantity of
cream wax on a clean, dry cloth,
and rub over small area of wood
.surface. Remove all excess wax and
polish at once with a second clean,
dry cloth, using firm, even strokes.
Overlap edges of polished areas
and polish entire surface in the
same way.
Paste Wax Way: To polish furni
ture with paste wax, wipe first with
clean, damp cloth. Then apply paste
with a damp pad, covering only a
small area at a time. Wipe at once
with clean, dry cloth and rub until
glowing surface is obtained.
WATCH YOUR TELEPHONE
VOICE!—Talk naturally over the
telephone. Normal tone of voice is
best over the telephone. Whisper,
ed words are indistinct. Shouting
distorts the voice and may make it
gruff and unpleasant.
