This Week's Poem
By WIUBbBNE HARRELL
BEAUT? FORSAKEN
To go and leave forever this beauty,
This world, its raptures, ecstasies of
toner
Its joyß of color and medleys of
forms,
And, enmantled in death, wander
alone . ' . ,
Into the mystery; and leave no good,
No lasting deed behind is to have
known
A futile life, to fail in what we could,)
To eschew the plow when we might,
have sown.
He, who in his heart would not know
beauty,
So insensate inward joys pass him by;
Who places no prayer or simple
offering
Before the muses—that surely is to
die,
To know the greater death of dying
within,
Os being dwarfs in soul when, gods
we might have been.

Low-Down on a high-powered Performer
Let us tell you this:
The Buick pictured here packs more power
than you find in any other car of its size and
room and price.
That’s the power of Buick’s newest high
compression valve-in-head eight—the F-263
rFj JFirebaU Engine, that really gets miles from a
f ? gallon of gas.
Add to this the fact that it tips the scales at
3817 pounds curbside—and you begin to see
, why this big-powered beauty is such a nimble
footed number out on the road.
,•. s ‘
But that’s only Chapter I of the performance
\ story.
There’s a big-car feel to the way this trim
titiveler covers the ground—hugs the curves
—holds its oourse on the straightaway
smothers the bttmps with its big soft coil
springs on all four wheels.
There’s big-car room inside—six-passenger
room—headroom, hiproom, shoulderroom,
kneeroom, front and back.

A few years ago all farmers were
urged to plant home orchards. As a
result, there are many run-down, ne
glected, home orchard skeletons to be
seen today.
Tree fruits should not be planted un
less you intend to take good care of
| them. That means pruning, spraying,
cultivating and fertilizing. And it also
j means having the proper equipment
Ito do these jobs. You cannot spray
j a large tree with a hand sprayer, and
I you will not have worm-free, disease
free fruit unless you carry out a spray
program.
If you want to plant tree fruits, se
cure .your trees from a reliable nur
sery even if they are a little higher in
price. Recommended peach varieties
in order of ripening are Early Red-
Fre. Dixiegem, Red Haven, Golden
Jubilee, Hale Haven, Belle of Georg
ia, Elberta and Lizzie. Recommended
Seedlings Offered To
4-H Boys And Girls
North Carolina 4-H Club members
have been offered a total of 1,250,-
000 free pine seedlings for planting
this winter, according to John E. Ford,
assistant forester for the State Col
lege Extension Service.
Ford says any 4-H member will be
allowed up to 5,000 seedlings at no
cost, provided he has a suitable place
to plant them. Application should be
made through the local county agent.
The seedlings are being provided by'

apple varieties in order of ripening
are Lodi, Golden Delicious, Red De
licious, Stayman, Winesap, and Rome
Beauty.
Some apple varieties such as Red
Delicious, Stayman and Winesap will
not pollinate themselves and, there
fore, must be planted with Golden De
licious, Rome Beauty, or Grimes Gold
en in order to set a crop of fruit.
Where space is limited and apples are
desired, dwarf apple trees can be
planted. They are much smaller in’
growth than the standard trees and
may be planted as close as eight feet |
apart. The same varieties may be ob- j
tained as in the standard trees but
they are much higher in price.

Come in, look it over, and we think you’ll
agree—it’s big in everything but price.
And that’s where it really shines. If you’ve
shopped around you’ll know what we mean
when you read the price tags, and what they
include in the way of standard equipment
that shows up as “extras” on so many others.
Such things as an oil filter, air cleaner, vacuum
booster, built-in summer ventilation are all

It’s hard to believe but it’s true. If you can
afford a new car, you can afford this Buick at
