Chowan High School Adopts New Course r In Safe Auto Driving New Chevrolet Is Made Available By BBH Motor Co. >J A new course was started at the * Chowan High School last week which is designed to teach high school stu dents the right attitude toward car operation as well as the practical and r theoretical phases. Strong backers of this safety education are the Au tomobile Association of America, school authorities and local car deal ers. Linwood H. Worrell, manager of the BBH Motor Company in Edenton, has made available for the use of the |p instructor and the students a brand new dual-control Chevrolet. This safety car containing a double set of . pedals will remain in the custody of L the school until January, 1950. It is * expected that ample time will thus be provided for the course to be taught. According to Mrs. Jonas Futrell, supervisor of safety education for the State of North Carolina, Chowan County is fortunate in having as an instructor W. J. Nichols, principal of the High School. He has been trained specially for the instruction at the University of North Carolina. The Automobile Association of Am erica, which is co-sponsoring the safety driving course in conjunction with the BBH Motor Company and in cooperation with the State Depart ment’s program of safety education, was represented by Miss Goldie Lay ton, local manager of the Carolina Motor Club. Geddes B. Potter, chair man of the Chowan County Board of Education, accepted the car for the school. Peter Carlton, manager of the Chowan County Chamber of Com- V merce and Merchants Association, was ' also present at the presentation. Pl»inmiiiiini«iiiiiiiniiiiminiiiininMM«iiiiiHmminnm. Q I SNHS I i Mmm i By T§d K*stmg | A human weasel is a shifty,slinking, chinless weakling who takes by unlaw ful craftiness what he cannot gain by , intelligence, pluck, hard work and personal integrity. All of this de scribes not the real weasel, but his complete antithesis. i There is nothing shifty about the ) weasel. He is as direct as a bullet. Yet you never hear anyone speak a kind word in his behalf.

But to Byron Dalrymple, once a trapper, the weasel has many char acteristics of which humans could be very proud, if they had them to his de gree. He *is equipped wffh a Mgh speed metabolism which Keeps him constantly restive, always on the move. Coupled with this tremendous energy are one of the most alert and agile intelligences in wildlife, match less fearlessness and determination, lightning physical agility, and the most amazing strength per unit of weight you will find in mammals. The weasel is one of the world’s smallest carnivores, yet probahly na ture’s most efficient killer. In his every daily act he is, next to the shrew the most intense of all mammals. We call, this intensity of movement and purpose ferocity, but from the wea sel’s viewpoint, it is nothing more than a superior development in re lation to conditions of his environ ment. His unusual strength, plus his other qualities, enable him to cope with creatures outweighing him 20 and more times. To muscular power he adds an expert surgeon’s knowledge of the most deadly holds known to any rough-and-tumble fighter. Artery holds. And, knowing these, he never gambles on using less effective ones. The weasel must dart in and sink his razor-sharp dental scalpels in the fatal place with one lightning thrust. And he must know the physiology and anatomy of dozens of different species. So do not malign the weasel, even though his purpose and the human purpose are at odds. Consider well the perfection of his dynamic character. And if, in measuring your own wits against his, you can honestly say you can match him, then put aside all your personal worries. Your future is assured. Be it said to the credit of the Jap anese that no author in that country has come out with a bood, explaining how Tojo won the war.
