And these same unlucky travellers will often be subject to other forms of motion sickness such as air and road sickness. The symptoms of motion sick ness—and it is actually quite a serious condition—are well-known to most of us. The stomach begins to churn like the sea itself, the■ f 1 face becomes! pale and breaks! sweat, there is often nausea pleasant sensa from the stimu lation, by eon /7 s ~Tjp.* stantly repeated ' A motion, of cer tain of the body’s sense organs. In the past few years science has developed several drugs in the hope of counteracting this stimu lation in queasy travellers. The most recent, and apparently the most effective, of these drugs is one called Bonamine. Tested by the Army, Navy and Air Force, Bonamine proved to give 24-hour protection against air and seasick ness with just one tablet, in con trast to the repeated dosages nec essary in other such drugs. ' Army doctors gave Bonamine to 116 soldiers on s troopship cross ing the Atlantic and found that Jih protected against motion sick in 109 of the cases. When 302 Paratroopers were given the drag tt.4 per cent suffered no syrop | toms, of sir sickness. f 1 J Civil Defense Director ' | EDWARD FOSTER GRIFFIN ! Brig.-Gen.

Conservation Os Food On Farm Important The Agricultural Workers Council has set as one of its major objectives in 1954 to get farm families to pro duce and conserve an adequate home food supply on the farm. Toward this objective a club order of fruit trees has been made for seven families and a club order of strawberry plants was made for twelve families. !

An all-American tackle doesn’t go around tackling people in everyday life. A world-record sprinter doesn’t have to demonstrate his prowess on city side walks.

There is a story told of a man so ugly that, in his younger years, he fought everyone who commented on, his ugljness. After he became old, a long streak of ill-luck made him tooj weak to fight over such remarks. One day a neighbor inqured about his j health. “How are you feeling now?” he ask- j ed. “To tell the truth,” the ugly man replied, “I’m feeling awful bad. Star vation is staring me in the face.” “Well,” said his neighbor, “That is mighty tough on both of you.” stressed. Through news articles and meetings adequate home gardens with successive plantings to provide a con-! tinuous supply of vegetables is urged. | Gratitude to God makes even a tem- Iporal blessing a taste of heaven.

Perhaps we have spoken a few. Stab bing and wounding with a shaft of i sharp wit is as cruel as tieing a tin j can to a helpless dog’s tail. Many ! ,times we inflict the pain thoughtless ly.

Mr. Potter, chairman, called the meeting to order by requesting the reading of the minutes of the previ ous meeting. The secretary read the minutes and same were approved by ' a motion made and passed. The County Treasurer’s report for February was read, and same adopted by a motion made and passed. The local school fund treasurer’s report for Chowan High, Rocky Hock and White Oak Consolidated Schools were read. These reports were adopted by high-compression 200-horsepower V 8 engine with a nimble weight of only 3866 pounds as it comes oft the assembly line. That’s a power-to-weight ratio that chalks up a new record —a ratio that no other Buick has ever reached before. It can spin your wheels on a dry pavement if you give it the gun, but why waste rubber ? If some show-ofi wants to get the jump on you at a traffic light, why not let him have fun? He isn’t kidding anyone but himself, when the name on your car is CBNTURY. 'The real pride of owning such a car is ' a motion made and passed. | The superintendent raised the ques tion about converting the oil burning system at the Chowan High School i gymnasium to a coal stoker, in that j coal at State expense could be used for heating this building. For the ! nast three years the expense of fuel has been paid from county funds, be -1 cause the State refused to allot funds for oil used for fuel. By a motion made and passed, the superintendent was requested to secure bids on the j cost of the proper size coal stoker installed. The superintendent advised the! Board that the proper forms were be-i ling prepared for the application of j building funds with the State, with' respect to the additions and altera-' ! rions at Chowan High School. The secretary read the bills for j February in the amount of $3,706.95, j upon motion made and passed, same were approved. i Current expense, $1,052.22; veterans! program, $845.65; teacherage fund, I $36.75; capital outlay, $598.70; voca-l ( \ QIUUHUtCUt*}...

That lets you enjoy the tireless ease of its gait in ordinary driving, when only a fraction of its eager power is working. It gives you a quick reserve for breasting a hill—and the happy knowledge that there’s still more to come in a sudden emergency. Sure, this is more power than most people really have to have.
