Dr. Hoffman, director public school music for North Carolina is n;ost adept jn getting "all of the music" out of one. Each person was there because of her interest in mus ic and although four hours were de voted to work and much helpful in struction it passed all too quickly. | Our one regret was not realizing the treat in store for us and not urging more people interested in church, school and community sing ing to join us. It is our hope to have Dr. Hoff man come to Cherokee County for such a training school in the not too distant future. 1 THIS WEEK jj ?

That is the number which Selec tive Service estimates will be come 184 years of age, and thus subject to the draft, between next date on which the draft law i.< aue to expire. We asked Selective Service who and how many it expects to call for military duty and how they wU.

Because ol rising replacement costs, many homes have outgrown their origi nal life insurance coverage. Let us check yours . . . without obligation. i CITIZENS BANK and TRUST CO. INSURANCE DEPARTMENT VErnon 7-2141 Murphy Andrews be chosen. Here are some of their answers. Draft calls so tar this year are running at around 8,000 a month Barring world-wide disarmament or a big shooting war, neither ol which Is expected, that rate will is at about 100,000 a year. One In Twelve Only about one out of every ?welve young men who become of , 4 raft age actually will be called. Selective Services' figures indi- J .ate. How, we asked, will those to >e ca!l?l be selected. Only these in excellent physi cal condition and above average ne:it~lly will be chosen. The tests n both physical and mental condi- . !ons will be more strict than in the | the past, we are told. iu ite past only about 2 out of every 10 called' have been rejected, ;ut Selective Service says the re jection rate will be about 3 out of every 10 under the new law. The F resident, it was explained, has bread powers to change the num:er as well as the physical and mental standards of those to be called. Selective Service offi cials, however, know of no plans for changes. The law fixes teh age for draft at between 18'i to 25 years, but for these who have been deferred the '?"v mp'.es the subject to draft up to the age of 35. As a matter of practice, most of the draft calls -re for the 22 and 23 year olds. Deferments The Ihw docs not provide for de ferments to permit the youths to continue through high school and coliese, bu: Selective Service offi cials say that unless there is a national emergency the present practice cn deferments will be continued. Tiic present practice, which cotud, however, be changed by a presidential order, is to defer fath ers and expectant, fathers, pro viding they keep their draft boaru informed of their status. The law also provides another v. ay to avoid active duty in the military forces. A young man ca.! sign up with one of the military reserve units, including the Nation al Guard, for six months active duty trtining. * After that he must attend week ly drills and a two weeks annual training period. This would con tinue for several years, in most esses unitl he reaches the age ol 36 and thus become exempt from the draft. HEATHS MRS. MAY M. MOSS HAYESVILLE? Mrs. May M. Mess, 7S, of the Tusquitlee section cf Clay County, died at her home at 1:30 p.m. Sunday after a long illness. Services were held at 4.30 p.m. Monday in the Moss Memorial Bap tist Church, of which she was a number. The Revs. Boyd Hogsed, H. C.

Surviving are two daughters. Mrs. Walter Johnson and Mrs. Caroline Moore, both of Hayesville, and a son, Clauds Moss of Warren. Pallbearers were Donald, Paul, Andrews and Frank Moore, Cress Moss and Wiley McGlamery. Soil Conservation NEWS - 1 JOHN At1 a recent meeting of the Cher kee County Agricultural Workers Council, several very worthwhile projects far the county were dis cussed. Included in those projects are four which every farmer in the county should be interested in carrying out on his own farm for his own benefit. These four are ( 1 ) A Live at | Home Program, <2> Better For estry Program; (3) A Soils Testing [ Program, and 14> A Community | Development Program. If each individual farm in a co- j mmunity is improves, the Comm unity Development Program is d ue ' automatical!} In order for a Com munity Development Program to be carried to a success; ul completion, every farm within the Community would have to carry tc completion a good Soil and water Conserva tion Program. To discuss the.se programs in dividually and briefly, let's take them in the oruer named. Not near ly enough farms have a good Live ' At H->me Program. Not many years ago about the only things a farmer j sought at tlie grocery store was | coffee, and sugar. Now practically j everything that is eaten by the farm famiiy comes out of a can. Even j the milk and eggs for many farm families come ironi the store. This j is the simplest way ta secure our :ood, but I have my doubts about ' its being the best way. There is nothing to take the place of the , fiavcr and nutrition of fresh, home I -rown foods. Most of the farms of Cherokee could develop belter Forestry Pro grams than they now have in oper- j ation. Over eighty live per ccnt of , the land area ox t. e county is ill j '.voociland. Some is good, some is p-cor, and a lot is in-between. The income form forest products is not nearly as large as the propo.- j tkra of forest land would indicate ! it should be. Plenty of information >;n bC'Uer forestry practiccs is avsilijle from the various tederal. state and county agricultural agenci es, and from the loresiers of priv- , ate concerns who depend on forettj products to maintain their business! operations. Much has been said about the value of testi-ig soils :>efore plant ing. A county-wide drive to have soil tests made on every farm in the county would have a big effect on increasing the production ol grass and crops within the Counly. One man was heard to remark recently that he wouldn't plant a turnip patch anymore wihout have ing the soil tested. When ail the farmers get to .his point, then Cher okee County c:.n iced a lot more chickens, cows and people than she is now doing. These three programs are only a part of an over-al! Communi'y Developme.it program. If every farm in the county or in any com munity carried cut these three pro tram;, coupled with a good Soil and water Conservation program, they will have gone a lon,2 way to- 1 ward an excrllent Community Development Program. Ivie Funeral home was in charge of arrangements. JONES INFANT Maurice Len Jones 14-mcnth-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James C. Jones of Waynesville Route 2, died at his home at 9:30 Tuesday, March 24, after a long illness. Funn-al services were conducted at the Bear Creek Baptist Church at 2 p.m. with the Revs. Hoyle Bridge j and Clifford George offi< iating. CGtiE SEE THESE SWIFT VALUES!
