Pretty Jean Sykes of Conway, N. C., is shown operating the key
board of a teletypesetter perforator, the machine that has opened up
an entirely new occupation for women in the newspaper field. The
tape from this machine (shown in the lower left hand of the picture)
is fed through an apparatus attached to a typesetting machine and
automatically sets type for newspapers. Miss Sykes is a student at
the Roy Parker School of Printing, Chowan College, Murfreesboro,
the only school in the entire South where such training is available.

per, and those badly worn, have been
1 discarded. The library receives thir
ty-six magazines which include ma
terial on current events, science, lit
erature, sports, hobbies, homemaking
and vocations. This year the follow
ing students are serving as library
assistants: Ann Braswell, Betty By
rum, Sherwood Harrell, Ralph Chap
pell, Imogene Morgan, Rachel Wilder,
Frankie Stokes, Faye Haste, Frances
Boyce, Faye Lassiter, and Bonnie
Wright. These students are given an |
opportunity to participate in as many '
varied library duties as possible. They
circulate library materials, shelve
books, send overdue notices, process
new books, plan and prepare bulletin
boards and displays, keep magazines,
newspapers, and the reading room in
order. Jane Yount, a member of the
Senior Class, does all of the typing
for the library.
The general appearance of the li
brary has been greatly improved by
the addition of bulletin boards and
several pictures. Mrs. Enola N. Smith,
local artist, has given the library
three lovely original water colors of
local scenes: The Court House, The
Cupola House, and St. Paul’s Episco
pal Church. The pictures are hung
as a group on the north wall of the
library. Three excellent pen and ink
drawings by Cecil Miller, a member of
the Junior Class, have been present
ed to the high school library. These
drawings are of the old Edenton Acad
emy, the present Elementary School
and the new Edenton Junior-Senior
High School.
Oscar White and Melvin Davis,
members of the Freshman Class, have
given potted plants to the library and
some members of Junior High English

brary and add much to the attrac- ,

Local Leaders Needed
For Better 4-H Work
“Local adult 4-H Club leaders are
an integral part of good 4-H Club
work,” says County Agent C. W. Ov
erman.
“The leaders are out there in the
(communities ready to work with our
boys and girls. Our job is to influ
ence, train and give them the inspira
tion opening the avenue of service.
“Health is the first thing for our
4-H Club members. What is project
work and other activities without
health? Every 4-H Club member
must be inspired to strive for health
improvement along with project work
and other activities. Good health iiri
iprovement in a community results in
better personal health, family health
and community health.
