Ou-t-of-door living rooms or
garden retreats are joys to farm
women of North Carolina during
the hot summer when the house
work Is over for an hour, P'or
that reason th» home demonstra
tion division at State College,
hcauiifit-ation specialist and as
sists the home agents and farm
ivomen with their garden prob-
iiiuo, She says the garden polh
should have surprises along Us
borders. It should lead to a place
of interest with a terminus such
through its county home agents, as a sear., an arbor, a fountain,
i« devoting more time and atten- i pool, or bird bath. The flagged
tlon to this phase of home beauti- 1 terrace shown in the above pic-
fieation. Miss Pauline Shaith, dis- I ture was made of native rode and
trlct home agent, acts as home a rock wall would have been as
pretty, she suggests. The back
ground of cedar and hemlock is
native. The dogwood is an accent
ami the shrubs are laurel, called
creel: ivy in many North Carolina
localities. Sweet myrtle, fetter
bush, cranberri, or rhododendron
might liAve been used as effec
tively. As a sub.stitute for the
wooden seat, naif of a hardwood
log. set on log legs, milk stoo'
style, would he appropriate. In
place of the old fountain, there
might be a bird bath made from
the hub of a car wheel, painted
i dark green: or a naturalistic
pool; or just a .seat under a
crab-apple tree. Let the terrace
l)e on an ax's with the door or
main living rpom window and
watch the family look for the
spot on a summer evening, she
says.

WHY YOU .SHOULD HAVE A
BETTER HOME
Would you like for the presi
dent or a man who holds a high
position to inspect your house?
J I’ll bet a majority of the house
wives would say “No, not until I
have cleaned it up.’’ Would you
like for President Roosevelt to
inspect your yard? No, you
wouldn’t unless it had been re
cently cleaned. You don’t know
how many people see your house
and yard every dav and make a
comment on it. Wouldn’t you like
for all these comments to be good
ones? I suggest you clean up your
house and yard and if your house
needs painting or any work done
to it I would have it done. You
don’t know how much bettor it
would make your house look and
how much better you would feel
if you do these things.
You should not only clean up
your house but clean up North
Wilkesboro. Clean up the streets,
and alleys, plant flowers and
.grass and do many other thMig.s
to clean up the town. Your town
will be popular then and many
visitors will come to visit it.
Nonh Wilkpshoro can then truly

I Many visitor.s will be coming

I they will pass through North Wil-
