ENTIRE FAMILY’
teen to eleven years o! ago were
busy grading, tying and stacking j
the tobacco leaves.
The work moved along as deft j
)v and as skillfully as on a sac j
tory assembly line. The moth os !
and two of the daughters made j
up the "hands". Another daugh- ;
ter threw half-hitches about the !
ends of the bunches and hung.
» them on alternating sides of the
stick.,
The th : rd and youngest daugh - ,
ter brought the empty sticks up j
for use and stacked the loaded j
ones for carrying into the barns.
No Waste KLiion
For a few minutes I thought j
that, the two youngest sons, Coun ;
cil, 9, and Norvell, 6, were get.-
tng away with playing while ev- j
eryone else worked.
Then as the pile of leaves on ;
the long work table dwindled, the j
2 youngsters went down into the j
sledge and picked up more leaves j
which they stacked on the table, j
When the sledge was empty they ;
hopped on it and drove the mule
back to the field where the se- j
cond sledge, now loaded, was;
ready to be driven back to the j
barn.
Despite the fact that we were ;
4 talking to Mrs. Scott and her |
daughters th n entire- time, there
was no cessation or slowing down I
of the work.
After a short while Mr. Scott:
came in from the f'eld,
f "You folks certainly do keep j
busy". I said. !
"Well. Mr. Scott replied. "We;
want to get all of this tobacco in
before time for the children, to
go back to school”.
Owns Two Farms
The farm at Fuquay Springs is
one of two 100-ecre holdings of ’
the Scott family. The second j
farm, located near Holly Springs j
is operated by Hughie Lyons and j
his family.
Here we found the same scene j
of activity which we had left at j
the Scott farm. Although it was
4 rapidly growing dark. Mr. Lyons,!
Mrs Lyons and their three j
daughter. Mamie Lee, Marjory i
and Ida Margaret were busy at i
tying anJ stacking the tobacco|
preparatory ot loadinga barn.
4 Mr. Lyons disclosed that they I
had already loaded ten barns and :
that the one on which they were ;
working was the eleventh.
Earlier Mr. Scott had said that j
once the loading and curing of ;
the tobacco had been started, it.
was necessary to keep at it until
the job was finished.
When Mrs. Scott was asked j
how she found time to keep house ,
during tobacco season, she said. ;
"I don’t. We just camp while we
are getting the tobacco in."

One of the oluhs to which 1 be
long held Jt spc.'isl tnecting re
cently on "The Art of Home IV
; corating", and Mrs. Hays, our i
! chairman, told us that this pro- *
■ gram was made possible by one of .
the country's large paint com
panies. Many companies are now
supplying material such a; this on ;
- subjects of interest to all home
makers.
i This particular program gave us
| the entire story on paint for home !
decoration, presented in four see- I
tions. The firA dealt with the his i
, tory of color and paint, and we ;
were fascinated to learn about, the j
; earliest paints where they came
from and so on The next section
covered modern pairu ami its ap- ■
plication. Did you know that paint 1
not only protects our homes and :
! makes them more attractive, but '
actually makes them safer by )
pointing out. spots of danger?
The third section was extremely :
interesting . . describing various ]
types of paints and where they ,
should be used, Not only where. ;
but exactly how to use them; ■
something every homemaker j
should know. The fourth section j
was on "The Science of Color Dy
namics" . . . how to use color to i
best advantage for beauty and for
- psychological reaction of the j
members of your household
Each talk was presented with the :
help of special full-color cards, a
movie, and booklets for “very !
member, which were all furnished ;
by the Pittsburgh Plate Glass
i Company
'. * The program was very interest
ing and certainly constructive. (
Now that we know that companies
will help us plan our chib meet- ]
tugs, we’re going to have several
more along the same line.
