The Stone of Unction marks the traditional place where Joseph of Arimathea anointed the body of Jesus. 10 Beauty only Voice Deep A | writer recently said this of wo-! men that their “beauty is only voice deep”. Now, what does he say is wrong with our voices? This is what our critic says: “American women are surely among the most attractive in the world. They spend billions of dollars to be well groomed— clothes and beauty preparations, etc., and yet stubbornly ignore what should be the prime asset — the VOICE”. “The report makers and speech makers often offend by thfeir rasping, screeching, whining voic es,” our friend writer says. Every woman can’t be beautiful to look at but she can cultivate her voice by simply listening closely to the way it sounds and by taking a few remedial meas ures. “Her voice was ever soft, low and gentle an excellent thing in woman.” This writer also says that “most men will scarcely notice what a woman is wearing or how her hair is done, but a harsh, shrill and high pitched voice will em barrass and annoy him.” This is just another something for us to think about, maybe a challenge to listen to our own voice! “Let ft Shine!"—Let the best in you show on the outside, your enthusiasm, your good humor, and your everlasting patience al ways, and then it is apt to rub off on others. Serve Family Food Favorites— Good seasoning is the reason for many food favorites. Try these: bay leaf and cloves in the water to boil smoked ham, garlic rubbed on salad bowl or garlic butter on heated French bread, sliced on ions and celery on top of pot I roast, or a, little horseradish in tomato jpice.

Biscuits, muffins, Johnny cake, homemade rolls, coffee cake—ev ery family has its homemade fav orites in baked foods. They are inexpensive ways to dress up economy meals. Laundering Nylons Machine washing and bleaching is recom mended when possible as the most effective way to launder white nylon. Why not do an ex periment for proof testing? In drip drying, be sure to hang garments on non-staining hanger. For best results, garments should be removed from machine while just slightly damp and hung on non-staining hanger. Never leave nylons in the machine dryer after the drying time is completed. If touch-up ironing is desired, set the iron on rayon setting. There are excellent bleaches detergents on the market now. Read carefully the labels for good results. RED MEN MEETING Chowan Tribe of Red Men will meet Monday night, March 31, at 7:30 o’clock. Hurley Ward, sa chem, urges a full attendance.

The greatest show on earth — Nature at work in the Spring! 9 * - I wonder if we really appreci ate the time required to produce a new variety of fruit, vegetable or flower: selecting the parents; making the cross; collecting and storing seed; planting the seed; selecting plants resulting from the cross; protecting from insects and diseases; evaluating and testing. How long does it take? From six to 15 years depending upon the type of plant you are work ing with. What does it require? The skill and training of a plant breeder and lots of patience. Since you are only interested in the end product, we will discus some more new developments as we did for roses two weeks ago. First, some “All-America” vege table selections for 1958. “Pearl green” bush snap bean—A white seeded variety of the tender green type reported to be a heavy pro ducer suitable for all purposes.

They fail to tell us if first class postage was cut back to two cents that first class post age would only run a deficit of a few million dollars. Few know that first class mail plus air mail in 1952 gave a profit of $154,000,- 000. If the prest or the bill as put forward by the last Congress the profit will be increased to $32,000,000. During 1952 second class mail ran a deficit of $240,000,000. The bill as presented in the past calls for a increase of only $6,000,000 which will still leave a deficit of of more than $4,000,000 on four 'kisssi ■rn t^ l Mm ■=■ »■ t■i-1 -f r^-" EASE THROAT!
