Easter Seal Society Active In Year 1957 Greater services to crippled children - than ever before in its history marked the strides made by the Chowa nCounty Easter Seal Society „in 1957, it is an nounced by Ernest Ward, Jr., president. Ward said that 18 crippled chil dren and 1 handicapped adult re ceived direct services in Edentor by the Chowan County Easter Seal Society. With the funds that remain in Chowan County, the Society assists crippled children and adults in every way possible so they can make their adjust ment to life witjji their physical limitations and handicaps. As the 1958 Easter Seal cam paign gets underway. Ward point ed out, “Our job is far from fin ished, and our goal is far from achieved. The Chowan Countv Easter Seal Society looks ahead in 1958 with the determination to ,help erippled people in increas in«lv preater numbers with the funds that will be raised during thi? year’s appeal.” Ward said that the Chowan County Easter Seal Society is one of 1,655 Easter Seal affiliates of the National Society for Crippled Children and Adults, having chapters in all 48 states, District of Columbia, and three territor ies. During 1957, Easter Seal funds helped finance 1,400 centers and programs offering direct ser vices in rehabilitation to 132,392 children and 26,114 adults. $68,900 Allocated In Chowan For Roads Continued from Page I—Section 1 atively small since practically all such funds were committed prior to July 1, 1957. Allocations of these funds at this time has not delayed secondary road improve ment work since construction crews normally work several months behind the allocation of funds. Availabilities for the 1958-59 fiscal year total $16,000,000. SB,- 000,000 is available from Federal aid Secondary funds granted to the State on a 50-50 matching ba sis by the Federal Government, $6,000j)00 from GepecwL Better ments, -end ‘hr T1 o i°'< Betterment Fund for sertmtfnry roads approved by the 1957 Gen eral Assembly. The county-by-county alloca tions were revealed in a 40-page document sent to each member of the State’s 100 County Boards of Commissioners. This document included explanations of the al locations, methods of preparing county secondary road plans and procedures for the adoption of such plans each fiscal year. The manual also contains a synopsis of the Legislative Act of the 1957 General Assembly which adopted secondary road proced ures for the Highway Commission and excerpts from the;; Statutes governing such highway work. Enclosed in each manual for the information of County Com missioners is a copy of the Sec ondary Road Policy adppted by the State Highway Commission, a breakdown of the allocations for each county and a summary of allocation factors for the Sec ondary Road Plan. g The $16,000,000 availability for 1958-59 was allocated -| to each county in two ways. Ooe-half of the available funds or $8,000,000 was distributed on the basis of the relative need of each county for the’ paving of its tyral sec ondary roads which serve 50 ve hicles or more per day, A com- JX - n - aruVV ’WW nr qr .rrw - Samctiar VODKA - > :‘ • < v ‘- $0.90 OSC U4/S Q t £m ptet Otpdiict d U. 1 A. „ Seh«M*r. 0* 9 > «rw» Groi. .;i«| P«# > •:%* " .

The wedding took place Saturday, March 15. prehensive State-wide survey of such facilities revealed that a to tal sum of $123,956,000 \»auld be required to pave the 9,330 miles of such secondary roads rated for paving. $8,000,000 represents 6.45 per cent of the total amount needed over the State for such paving. Allocation of this $8,000,- 000 for each county represents 6.54 per cent of the total sum which would be required to pave the rated rural secondary roads of that county. t The remaining $8,000,000 was allocated to each county on the basis of the number of miles of unpaved rural secondary roads in 1 the State which did not carry 50 vehicles per day and were not rated for paving. 24,137 miles of 1 these unpaved roads were listed in the secondary road survey. ’ Each - county received approxi mately $331 for each mile of its jl tMWWed r* Highway Director W.

The High way Director pointed out that the Department of Secondary Roads and .his office would give every consideration to the recommenda tions of the various County j Boards of Commissioners before, formally approving each county plan. Final authority for the adoption of each secondary road plan rests with the Highway Commission. “We feel,” said Babcock, “that the new procedure allowing County Commissioners to express their feeling on secondary road j matters will be of tremendous value in bringing our entire high way operation closer to the peo ple and in making it more respon sive to the needs and will of our people.” Guest Speaker At The Rev. Paul Carruth, execu * tive director of Christian higher I education for North Carolina I Methodists, will preach in the I Edenton Methodist Church Sun day morning, March 23, at 11 | o’clock. Mr. Carruth was sched j uled to preach here early in Feb j ruary, but was unable to fill the ; engagement due to a death in his ; family. | Mr. Carruth will speak about !

Curry. The salute to the flag was under the direction of three Edenton Girl j Scouts, after which Mrs. John • Ross presented a brief history of, the national PTA association as j well as the Edenton organization. Next on the program was the Rev. George B. Holmes who sub mitted a very interesting church school report. Mr. Holmes pre- | sc nted statistics showing that one out of nine school . children in j Edenton are not attending any | church school, which is above j the national average. He said that; of 999 questionnaires sent out. it v/as shown that 322 ale affiliated | with some church schqpl, 104 are affiliated.- but. do not attend reg-I ularly and eight were not affiliat- j ed with anv church. Sixtv-fivej of the questionnaires were not re-, turnc d. Mr. Conggr then turned the! meeting over to Mrs. Whitten,; who was in charge of the panel discussion. Among the questions presented, were: i What amount of fire insurance | is carried on the Elementary. School building and is it above the ’minimum? The answer to J thir question was $345,000. Will you permit school trustee j | meetings to be open to the pub- J lie? This answer was in the af- ' firmative and that anyone is wel- j come to attend. What js the latest information; about the fire condition at the! Elementary School? It was stat-1 j ed that the state fire marshal and ■ a member of the State School i j Planning Board had recently I made an • inspection and stated j that the school does not meet present standards, but did when the school was built. The report also stated that the building is j not jn such condition as to war j rant condemnation proceedings. A number of improvements were -| recommended such as removing the first row of seats in the au ditorium allowing more room to the doors leading to the outside, covering the ceiling with fire re sistant material, replacing wood en steps with steel or concrete when repairing is necessary and that inaccessible areas be protect ed with a fire detector system, •stir. Holmes pointed-ti-ut that most of these recommendations have been made or are being planned. He did point out that no oil has been used on floors since 1936. How much money is budgeted for schools in Edenton? It was stated that the state appropria tion is and locally $94,535.46. Are fire drills being held in the school, to meet State require ments? The answet was yes, and that inspections are required and made twice monthly. Why do you not have a quali fied lunch room supervisor? The answer was that lunch rooms are now under capable supervision. * Hot(- dre -School -trustees elect ed? The answer: Elected at a joint meeting of the school trus ■ tees and Town Council. ; How does it happen that most ' members do not have children in I school? It was stated that all I members of the board have had | children in school at one time or I another. The trite remark was 1 also made that most of the teach ers have no children in school and further that the trustees are too old. What is the bonded indebted ness of Chowan County? The an swer was $425,000. | Why is so little equipment fur nished at the Elementary School? i The reason was because of limit | ed space and that children pre j fei room for other sorts of ; games. The school was placed at the wrong place to begin with. | Why was Miss Mayo not given j permission to teach French to j fifth grade pupils? Piincipal Er | nest Swain stated he would have j an answer to this question at the I next meeting. How much money does Eden , ton receive due to enrollment of ! children of military personnel? j In five years the following j amounts: $2,550.30, $2,805.02, , $5,005.00, $13,162.00, $13,005.00, or i j a total of $36,527.32. This money j j was used to employ two teachers j to reduce the teacher load, pur-, chase two driver education cars 1 and the remainder went into the j general budget. What sort of program is plan ! ned for gifted children? The j State School Board has not yet I worked out a program, j A number of other questions ; were asked and all in all the pro ! gram was very enlightening and lno doubt answered some ques -1 tions which lately have been I more or less criticism of the school trustees. President Conger announced that, as usual, the kindergarten won the attendance prize, hut that Mrs. Lloyd Bunch’s fifth grade was second. *■' 333, in ci h m i .uiammGm EASE THROAT!
