In that year the bother and two sisters of Z. Smith Reynolds provided that their inheritance from his estate would go to the establishment of a trust for the benefit of the people of North Carolina. One of the initial trustees of the Foundation was Z. Smith Reynolds uncle, William Neal Reynolds, who at his death in 1951 created a trust which now provides the major por tion of the Foundation's an nual income. The Foundation, drawing on the income from the Zachary Smith Reynolds Trust and the W.N. Reynolds Trust, has now made 1,927 grants totalling more than S124,000, 000 to more than 945 recipi ents in all of North Carolina's 100 counties.

Sale Toys Parents put a lot of love into the decisions they make about buying holiday toys for their children; the North Carolina Medical Society urges parents to also put a lot of thought into these decisions. Figures published by the U.S. Consumer Product Safe ty Commission indicate that children are most often injur ed while playing with toys such as bicycles, tricycles, skates, skateboards, snd sleds. Children love these toys, and the Medical Society is not saying parents should not buy them. But It is clear tttA ,<tn?9r need ? <h> f better job of supervising their children and teaching them how to use these toys in a safe manner. For example, if you give a child a bicycle you should not only teach the child how to ride the bicycle but also how to ride on streets with auto traffic. Many toy-related deaths are due to choking and suffocation. It's very import ant that toys for small child ren-babies and toddlers--be too large to put in the mouth. Avoid toys that have small parts that can be put in the ? mouth. Avoid toys that have long strings or cords that can cause strangulation. Toys that shoot or propel objects that can injure the eyes or be ?lodged in the thrust should not be given to small children. Consider the surroundings in which a toy will be used. Is there sufficient toy storage and play space? Will young * children be able to get their hands on toys designed for older children? Parents who make s thoughful effort to match the toy to the child's age and abilities will be less likely to have an injured youngster. Aerobic Classes To Be Held Aerobic classes will be taught at the Pembroke Bap tist Odum Home on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7:00 to 8:00 beginning Dec. 10 thru Jan. tf>.
