A YARDFUL-A whole yard wide, as proved by the yard
stick, this giant fungus growth is measured by Jim Keal in
Independence, Mo. The growth came from a small stump in
Keal’s garden. It’s composed of separate tubes which branch
into 100 or more “leaves.” Muddy yellow in color, the fungus
is hardening into a woody effect.

Dear Santa: Please bring me a

P. S. A washer and dryer for (
Mommy. I
This might be typical of the let-j
ters to Santa' and while doing!
your shopping, keep an eye on
the hashing labels.
Toy animals are now made with
foam rubber stuffing that wash
es as easily as your favorite foam
pillows. The coverings of several
on the market are completely
washable. Here is how:
1. Wash in automatic washer on
low, heat setting. Use a mild
soap or detergent.
2. Set the temperature of dry
er on low and fluff dry.
3. Brush to bring up nap, if
necessary.
Children’s clothes now bear the
label "washable”. This saves on
the number needed to fit the rap
idly growing bodies and on clean-.
. ing bills.
; The labels of some manufactur
ers state: Wash in automatic
washer with mild soap or deter
gent. Dry in dryer. Remove be
fore bone dry! This prevents set
ting wrinkles and allow the ar
ticle to be worn with little or no
pressing.
Corduroy, a favorite of Dad and
the small fry, takes to the wash
er and dryer with equal ease.
Corduroy can be dried to the
nearly damp stage and removed
for wear without ironing.
Many of the disciplined mate
rials today are labeled with exact
instructions for washing and dry
ing automatically. Follow these
instructions and Mom can have
a Christmas present of extra time
265 days of the year while her
family wears and plays with San
ta’s well chosen gifts.
Elements that contribute to
; successful washings, as stated in
, the January and February, 1956,
; issues of Good Housekeeping:
J 1. Proper temperature of water
>. 2. Soap or detergent suited to
! machine and articles laun
; dered
! 3. Bleach when necessary
| 4. Properly sorted load
; Inject a few raising of conver

‘ I existence. -O. Henry.
State Approves
Six Million For
Secondary Roads
j
The North Carolina State High
way Commission last week ap
proved a $6,000 allocation of Fed
eral-Aid Secondary Funds for the
1958-1959 fiscal year for the pav
ing of rural secondary roads and
the improvement of sub-standard
bridges on such secondary roads.
Upon request of Highway Di
rector W. F. Babcock, the Com
mission put its stamp of approv
al on an expenditure of approxi
mately $5,000,000 for paving sec
ondary roads on a prioritv basis
with the additional $1,000,000 for
the improvement of sub-standard
bridges.
Federal-Aid funds are made
available to North Carolina on a
50-50 matching basis, wltti one
half the funds allocated from the
State Highway Fund.
Babcock told the Commission
he has requested each Division
Engineer to indicate which of the
top ten priority roads in each
county qualify for use of Federal-
Aid secondary paving funds.
Roads will be paved in each
county according to the priority
| rating of each rural secondary
, road, with those qualifying for
1 Federal-Aid Secondary Funds and
' at the same time, rating high on
I a priority list in each county to
be given first consideration.
The allocation by the Commis
sion sets in motion the program
ming of paving projects and
bridge work. • However, recom
