Toni Wright gave the class prophecy. A trio of Mary Helen Bright, Debra Watson and Jane Hensley "A second thought on first aid" We're constantly amazed at the number of children whocut, scrape and bruise themselves within sight (and sound) of our phar macy. We do a big business in antiseptics, bandages, and other first-aid items. Same every where, probabiy. But sometimes we wonder if peopie don't depend too much on 6rst aid—neglect proper medical attention. If there's the slightest question tin your mind following what appears to be minor injuries, see your physician. First aid has definite {imitations. You can only be sure of proper medical care by seeing your doctor. A prompt vtsit can save a half dozen later.

Greenwood JUNE 2 ... Although the Legis lature is now involved in so many far-reaching bills that it may be here until latter days of June ,the pay stopped on June 2. This was 120 days from the date of convening. Expense al lowance, however, continues right on. Of the 50 states ,a total of 4? have been or are now holding sessions of their legislatures. Only Kentucky, Mississippi, and Virginia are not meeting in 1965. A number of states have al ready adjourned their legislatur es. Alaska quit on April 9; Ar kansas, March 11; Colorado, Mav 13; Georgia, March 12; Idaho, March 25; Indiana, March 8; Kansas, April 23; Maryland, March 30; Montana, March 4; Nevada, April 4; New Mexico, March 20; North Dakota, March, 6; South Dakota, Marcn 15; Utah, March 11; Washington, March 11; West Virginia, March 15; and Wyoming, February 20. New York, which had the heaviest burden of all this year, was expected to call it a day cn May 29. — BEGIN EARLIER. . . North Carolina Legislatures used to be gin work in January. This was changed to February when the Federal Government moved up its income tax time to April 15, with the State also going to April 15. But now that we arc on with holding, there is no longer any financial excuse for the General Assembly's coming together in February instead of January. The members have the powe: to set their convening date in January, if they wish. There is a bill now in the House (intro duced this time by Wood of Camden) to have the Legislature begin work again in January. Whether it will be adopted or not is another question. Similar bills have been introduced for sever al sessions now, but failed of passage. TEACHER PAY . . . Are some teachers worth more money than ethers? Certainly. Nobody denies it — but we have decided the State is not ready for pay on merit. A survey recently comple ted in Gastonia, Martin County, and Rowan County, says the State is not equipped to go into pay-on-merit on Statewide basis, However, the study shows it can be done on a local level and in some cases would be desirable. Teachers are against merit pay. . . always have been, al ways will be. MORE MEN. . . Trace it to better working conditions, better salary, improved acceptance — nearly 24 out of each 100 teach ers now are men in this State— compared to 20 out of each 100 nine years ago. DICTATORS. . , We all have a little bit of the dictator in us. Examples: 1. If left to a Statewide vote of the people, there would be no liquor stores. 2. If the people were allowed to vote on it, the speaker ban law put on the books by the 19 63 Legislature would continue there. Right? However, the people will not have an opportunity to vote on either of these items. They can't be trusted. . . . to vote as we think. NEXT TIME. . . Now that N. C. State College has officially become a University, has the bad feeling of State toward the Greater University subsided? No. Talk is already beginning— and will reach fruition when the 1967 Legislature convenes — that the offices of the Greater University should not be on the Chapel Hill campus. Look for a bill to move then to an 'im partial" city Raleigh, for exam ple. WESTWARD VO. . . World Traveler and State Senator Voit Gilmore, Southern Pinesman, has recently come into the pur chase of a 510-acre tract of land in the Haywood hills, center of Appalachian tourism. What he will do with it, no body knows in these parts. But. adds are it will not he idle. LIQUOR SALES. . . Speaking if ABC's of economics and retail trade, Mecklenburg County's 24 tegal liquor outlets in 1963 — tatest year for which figures are r/ailable — had sales of nearly tl5 million. Total sales of Charlotte's 64 irug stores .same year: $12,400, )00. Total sales of Charlotte's 76 hrniture and home furnishings [tores, same year: $12 million. Total number of churches in Riarlotte's metropolitan area: CLIPBOARD — GAL 22222222 about the phosphate rock, Texas Gulf Sulphur, etc., in Eastern North Carolina. New mines. New money. New prosperity. . . out of the earth. Up in the Spruce Pine area just a few years ago were the mica mines — when mica was in style — and there were 500 600 jobs. Prosperity. . out of the earth. Now there is not one mine in operation; not one per son earning a day's living mi ning mica. AVERAGE. . . If you want the average in temperature, come to Raleigh. We have days of real hot, muggy weather— last week, for example. But the hottest ever recorded in Raleigh, in the shade, was 103 — and the coldest, two below zero. Our average tem perature, year in and out, is 60. Average for the State: 59.1 degrees. UP FROM 64. . . The N. C. Dept, of Motor Vehicles shows new car sales of 15,636 for Aphl, a hefty gain over the 13,216 for April of 1964. Truck sales in April were 3,571 as compared with 3,067 for April I of last year. t Leading in cars for April: Ford at 4,242; Chevrolet, 3,949; Pon tiac, 1,361; Plymouth, 1,295; Buick 866; Oldsmobile, 780; Dodge, 668; Mercury, 594; Ram bler, 533; Volkswagen, 516. New trucks — Ford, 1,341; Chevrolet 1.145; International, 321; GMC, 2P7. The brightest day of this year's Legislature came last week when the Governor said he would not ask the lawmakers to kill the speaker ban law. When the news reached them, they went around grinning at each other like a horse eating briars. Here and there you could find one who actually looked like the old almanac drawing of the full moon. This marked a giant step to adjournment. Had the Governor asked that the law be overturned, he would have) met certain defeat in the face of a fist-full of victories. 430. More per person than any other city in North Carolina. UP AND DOWN. . . We have all been reading the rave notices Not only were the majority of the legislators in favor of keep ing the law, those who were not enthusiastic about it saw a speaker-ban-law argument big enough to keep them in Raleigh until July. They have been here now since June 2 without pay. HOW HE STANDS. . . Does the Governor want the Speaker Ban Law rescided? Only he knows. There are many people here who believes he does. After all he was not the Governor when it was enacted. He had nothing to do with its enactment. Of course, neither did Governor Sanford. Belief here is that he is wor ried about possibility of some of the State schools being knocked off the accredited list. They think that if this had come up a month earlier than it did, Gov ernor Moore might have asked that the Speaker Ban Law be knocked in the head. A SPECIAL. . . If the Gover nor does call a special session about the ban, the cost could easily run to $100,000. Special session pay is limited to 20 days. However, with mem bers of the Legislature receiving $15 per day in salary and $20 a day in expenses, the cost of the 170 coming to Raleigh could run to $5,950 a day. Add to this the cost of clerks, messengers, and various other aides, and you can see each legislative day— even in a special session—cost ing $8,000 per day. , Our last special session, called by Gov. Luther Hodges, was for the purpose of keeping North Carolina schools from being in tegrated. That session saw the enactment of the Pearsall Plan which only now shows signs of disintegrating. NOTES. . . Only an exact meshing of the legislative gears— a rare occurrence indeed — can get the Legislature out of Ra leigh on June 12. And, as one member put it this past week end: "We won't be through even by June 15. We'll just quit—." —Three or four broad legis lative acts last week caught for mer Governor Sanford pro jects— and at least two of his people — away out on the limb. Watch for the formal an nouncements between now and July 1.
