The Annual G«^e While Duke and Carolina have their annual football classic and attract many ttibosands, we have an annua] football classic in Wilkes—the North Wilkesboro versus Wilkesboro game to be played this year on Wednesday afternoon. During the past several years we have been impressed with the splendid spirit of sportsmanship shown by the boys who play these games lyith rivalry keyed to the highest pitch. One thing that has helped the game is that daring its history there has not been a runaway for either team, and both teams have victories to their credit. With a little more enthusiastic sup port from the public, local schools might make better showing in athletics. Wednesday would be a good day to be on hand to boost your favorite team. Only A Setback While some uneasiness has been felt in recent weeks relative to the business recession, it is generally felt that it will be of short duration, and only a pause in the march to prosperity. With business on the upward trend for three years there was always some feeling of uncertainty among business investors. Possibly the present recession was due in part to a too rapid increase in prices, which invariably results in less ' buying ot( the part of Mr. and Mrte. Public- Whatever may be the cause, we be lieve that the American people have the resources to rebound quickly from the slight slump into a more stable state of economic conditions than we have ex perienced in several years. Safety Education The role of education in the efforts to ward solution of the traffic accident problem, is ably discussed by Albert W. Whitney, consulting director of the Na tional Conservation Bureau. Mr. Whitney goes back to the early days of the industrial safety movement for an analogy which is vital to his dis cussion. He recalls that on the one hand there were those who believed that the only way to make industry safe was through so-called engineering revision, and on the other, those who insisted that the key to the problem was to be found in the education of workers themselves. Today, both ways of attacking the prob lem are recognized as essential. We now have a similar situation in the traffic field, Mr. Whitney says. “The state is in the same position as the em ployer, for the state cannot consistently insist on good driving and good pedes- trianism unless it is also doing its part in making the physical and mechanical conditions right.” He emphasizes that we must not lose time in carrying for ward the nece.ssarily long-term engi neering projects needed to achieve traf fic control and safety. He refers par ticularly to the enormously expensive job of rebuilding our streets and high ways- However, he points out, we must meanwhile be carrying on the necessary work of preparing individuals, ordinary citizens and public servants alike, for •proper adjustment to their motor age -^environment. That means education. As he says, "The people of the Unit ed States-must be educated to an un- dewtandfng bf the fact that the traffic ^oblem can be solved. We have suf ficient proof that solution is pos- ttait to rtreet can be located to the belief ^at we do not have traffic accidents, the back of the iriMc problem will be broken. To do ^eational number one.” Tbe EdaeatioB Of A iSSce The Duke Wto&or Is^artfiti the bitter lesson that hb^ one who hw once been a world figure can ever again do as be pleases without becoming the target of criticism and accusations. The‘former King^lfthperor and his wife, "Wally,” have cancelled their trip to America because of critielsras origii^ ating with organized labor* The ^‘tics are not unfriendly to '^e Dnke"?A^ Dutchess, but to Chvlca ^aux, their nanco-AmerlQan Mihbd, wko. had ar ranged to show them around.- Rightly or wronirly,' tobbr regard Ifr. Bedaux as its enemy because be invented a widely-used qrstem of hoping' tab on the daily output of workera in industry and graduating their pay in proportion to what they produce. Labor also re sented the Duke of Windsor's visit to Germany to study labor conditions, be cause the Nazi policy toward labor un ions is disliked in America. There is no ground for doubting the Duke's sincere desire to learn more about the way the mass of common peo ple live, and to try fco do something about it. It is to be hoped that he will find a way to visit America later, under better auspices. ®TICB OF VMAL Furm riakii «A1»e reduced hj dlrenJfieatloB of crops and live stock prodoctloB, is the oplnkm of Prof. lul H. ttoeteUer, of SUtoCoUece.

The prick of a needle (Tuberculin Test), the snap an X-ray camera, both of which would have required only a few seconds of time, and the gentleman with the scythe would have been sent on his way —alone.

MCK80W He who will not climb a molehill is not apt to climb a mountain. Heaven -will always stoop to kiss a trustwor thy boy or girt. A h'jngrry bird, though singing in the tallest tree-top, is not so well off as the one on the ground with a worm in its month. Men who pass up little things are rarely ever trusted with big ones. Seniority SHOULD mean superiority. If there's anything in luck, there’s twice as much in pluck. However good one’s eyes may be, if he won’t open them, he is sure to fall into the ditch. The whole history of every man’s life may be written with one of two words—^’’Success” or “Failure." Like a leak in a boat, a small fault, if un mended, will destroy its possessor. Oftimes one has to be knocked down before he will appreciate standing up. Ideas are usoaly measured by actions. Since Adam “passed the buck” to Eve, the whole human family seems to enjoy keeping it up. It is said that a new broom swqf^ clean. Yes, but there’s usually a woman at the end of it. It just'"’aint’ fair to condemn a woman for not thinking ah^jt all she says—this would be ‘womanly’ Impossible. So long as we remain human, about the only way to keep the left hand from knowing what the right hand does is to keep it from doing anything. Greater love Ijath no n^ Utan he-who takes his neighbor's wife, off Ua hands. Judged by the number of books they cany to school, school children are evidently laden with knowledge. ' A woman can orally remember every ‘Mate” except her birthday!' '' A man who i4owb books may not be ignpiynt^ bnt he may be a mighty bigfp^ 1 By inaisting too strongly on “numbers" to join oiir «dnzr^, an ocrai^ Wji the pen.
