SECTION TWO— News About Clubs In Chowan County By HATTIE SINGLETARY Home Demonstration Agent President Eisenhower has proclaim- j ed the week beginning July 25 as the 11th annual National Farm Safety Week. His proclamation calls atten tion to the importance of the farm safety campaign. Farm families are urged to review their attitude to farm safety and to rename hazardous conditions in the home, on the farm and in the com munity. Here is a check list of the ten 1 “Farm Safety Commandments” which will help prevent farm accidents: 1. Keep machinery in good repair. 2. Operate tractors safely, 3. Know and obey all traffic laws. 4. Re fire-sighted. 5. Speak to animals when ap proaching them. 6. Be a good housekeeper. 7. Watch your step to prevent falls. i 8. Know safety instructions. 9. Know and obey water safety rules. 10. Apply first-aid properly. If farm families will abide by these.l commandments not only during the. proclaimed “Safety Week” but nil ( through the year, useless farm acci-, dents will be prevented. > The Gum Pond Home Demonstra tion Club met last week with 14 of I their 19 members present.

SALUTE TO HIGHER EDUCATION! I A total of 59 colleges serve North Carolina, with individual enrollments ranging from 5,474 to less than 30 students! In June, 1953, nearly 6,000 seniors earned college degrees. Os this number, 81% were white and 19% were negroes. Our hat is off to these fine educational institutions which are contributing greatly in making North Carolina a better place in which to work, play and live. i Another contribution to more pleasant living for North Carolinians U the brewing industry's self-regulation program where brewers, wholesalers and retailers— in counties where malt beverages are permitted under State control cooperate to maintain wholesome i conditions for the legal sale of beer and ale. < North Carolina Division j UNITED STATES BREWERS FOUNDATION, INC.
