COL BOYLES Definite Rebuke "I asked if I could see her home." "And what did she say?" "She said she'd send me a photo of it." Quite Easy Caller: What, no attic? How can you get along with out one to store your junk in? Hostess: Oh, you see, we give it all away as bridge prizes. Garden Time By M. E. Gardner The eleventh annual "Open House" for high school students will be held on the campus of North Caro lina State University on Sat urday, November ,8. The theme for the 1969 convoca tion will be "Careers 2001". If this theme strikes you as being just a little "far out" don't let it bother you. Many grandparents can remember, with me, the remarkable ad vances we have seen in food and fiber production, process ing and utilization; in com munications; and in transpor tation. And so, for me, noth ing seems "far out" any more. What we should do now is keep our youngsters abreast of the times; and this is what "Open House" is de signed to accomplish. Th$ visitation program is sponsored by the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the School of Forest Re sources. It is considered by many to be the most success ful program of its kind ever attempted by the University because it helps keep students abreast of the changing times and orients them in the direc tion of careers ahead in science, business and tech nology. I have watched this program grow from an atten dance of about 1,200 eleven Bird Dog Field Trials Slated For November 1 And 2 Here Molly, Female Setter, owned by John R. Davis is shown getting ready for Field Trials. GIRLS PANTY HOSE Size 1 To 14 Reg Price $1 44 This Week 93c Regular 4.94 S m 1.18 ?mb tin nir Linoleum Rugs '3.38 TW. W.

OPEN FRIDAY NIGHT UNTIL ?:00 The Franklin County Wild life Club is sponsoring Bird - Dog Field Trials November 1 & 2 to be held on the M. H. Hunt farm located 6 miles south of Louisburg on High way 401. This is the third such event held since the club was organized in 1968. John R. Davis, club president says Field Trials have created much interest and have been a success each time. The running of dogs will get underway on Saturday morning and last all day. The event will be continued on Sunday afternoon beginning at 1:00 p.m. There will be 4 classes of dogs; puppy, derby, bird hunters and open all age. The top 3 winners in each class will be selected and trophies awarded. Davis encourages all owners of bird dogs to bring them and take part in the event. Entrance rules are very lenient, a dog. is never too young, too old, too ex perienced or inexperienced to be entered. You bring them, we have a class in which to enter them. Who knows, you might carry home a trophy. October is a good month in which to drive carefully. If you have managed to live this long, why not try to last out the year, at least?
