Dan K. Moore, in a salute to BPW in North Carolina, recently .said: “I am pleased to call at tention of the citizens of North Carolina to the fact that working women con stitute 26 million of the nation’s working force, and are constantly striving to serve their communities, their states and their na tion in civic and cultural programs. Major goals of BPW are to help create better conditions for busi ness women through the study of social, education al, economic and political problems, to "help them to be of greater service ■ to their community and to further friendship with women throughout the world.” Four of the charter members of the Edenton club have expressed their thoughts on BPW work in the following articles: Being a member of the Business and Professional Woman’s Club has meant more to me than words can convey. The associa tion with my fellow work ers has enriched my life in many ways.

I consider the BPW Club a form of adult edu cation. It has been an out let for me to meet with others who have mutual interests. The BPW has, also, giv en me a sense of pride to become involved in pro jects which elevate stand ards for women in busi- all professions, and in promoting the interests of business and profession al women of our commun ity. Mrs. Myrtle Cuthrell. The Business and Pro fessional Women’s Club has brought about a spirit of cooperation with women who represent all classes of occupations and the asso ciation has promoted my interest in the businesses. The club has given me a broader knowledge of state, local and foreign affairs. It is a good outlet from your own occupation. Goldie Niblett. What I Enjoy Most About The BPW There are, of course, many aspects of the Busi ness and Professional Wo men’s Club that I enjoy, but one reason is foremost in my mind. That reason is being part of something that you truly believe in and enjoying the people that you are associated with. There are many times in one’s life when she must do or be a part of something that she feels she must do, but does not really enjoy. This is not true of my association with the BPW. In my position it Is ex tremely difficult to belong to a number of organiza tions and still successfully run my business, so I chose many years ago the club that I thought most suited my ideals. The BPW is an organization organiz ed by and composed of wo men to carry on the fight for women’s equality and most deserved position of respect in the business MAY WE SUPPLY YOUR HEATING OIL THIS WINTER COASTLAND OIL COMPANY, INC SINCLAIR PETROLEUM PRODUCTS Home Heating Service f Farm Delivery Service PHONE 40-8411 EDENTON, N.

Green Thumb Tips J Winter rye sown in autumn j will act as a cover crop for the vegetable garden, controlling erosion. Start sowing it in the rows as they empty, fertilize the rye and plan to spade or culti vate it underground in early spring. This is a cheap way to add organic matter to your soil and thus improve crops for years to come. * * * If seeds of perennials and biennials were sown earlier and! you now have sturdy little; plants, better transplant the largest to wherever you want| them to bloom next year. The little ones, if spaced far] enough apart, can be left where] they are for winter, protecting them with a straw covering. | SPECIAL HALLOWEEN SALE ON ALL NEW 1969 CARS AND TRUCKS seethe’69CHEVROLETS 0 enter the T /■ mil Sweepstakes jjjj j NOTHING TO BUY TO REGISTER GEORGE CHEVROLET CO., INC. 1100 N.
