S. Dorton has an nounced. In addition to receiving free ad mittance at the fair grounds gates, the children will get reduced rates for rides and shows. Dorton is mailing 400,000 free passes this week to county school superintendents in counties which customarily send big flocks of chil dren to the State Fair. The tickets will be allocated to the various schools for distribution to the pupils. Dor ton explained he was not sending tickets to distant counties because usually they are not used. ‘However, he said any school superintendent not receiving passes for pupils can get them, if he so desires, by sending a written request to the fair manager.

All Wake County school children present ing their passes will be admitted to the grounds without charge. A sim ilar arrangement will prevail for all North Carolina school children on Fri day, October 22.

Now serving as vice president and member of the National Executive Committee qf United World Federal ists, Dr. Humber is also vice presi dent of the North Carolina Literary and Historical Association and a member of the board of trustees of Meredith College. N In accepting an invitation to deliver the second in the series of addresses on “The Church and the Contempor ary Crisis,” Dr. Humber said, “I hope . . . that it (the series) will help crystallize not only public opinion but a deep sense of obligation on the part of the Church to make secure — once and for all time —the heritage of the race that is founded on Christian culture. The crisis of our time has indeed such far-reaching and signi ficant consequences.” Miss Rebecca Colwell, president of the Business and Professional Wo men’s Club of Edenton, has announc ed that the members of the club will attend the address of Dr. Humber as a group. The local club is with the National Federation of Busi ness and Professional Women’s Clubs, Incorporated, and is joining in the nation-wide celebration of Business and Professional Women’s Week Oc-T t tober 10-17. The pastor of the sponsoring church, the Rev. W. L. Freeman, stated that he considered the community fortun ate in having the opportunity of hearing Dr. Humber, whom he re gards as “one of the great minds that the State of North Carolina has pro duced. His devotion to the work of his own denomination and his dedica tion to the task of helping to build a stable and secure world are deserving of the highest commendation.” A presidential poll is accurate when its results are for your side.
