The War Production Board will grant priorities and contractors are ready to take the job of erecting a plant if 60 per cent of the storage and locker space can be rented in advance. It has been the experience in other towns that people not familiar with cold storage xise were reluctant to commit themselves. However, when plants are put into opera tion and the people realize its great bene fits plants are invariably too small for the demand. The plans call for more than 500 indi vidual lockers of family size. In a locker a family could storage a reasonably large supply of meat and vegetables at nominal cost. By using a locker they could save food and have better food the year round. Orchardists would find the plant of great value in storing apples. Local com mercial firms often need cold storage space for many products. Adjoining counties do not have cold storage and locker plants and it is known definitely that many would want to use space in the plant here. A cold storage and freezer locker plant is badly needed here and now is the op portunity to secure one. A maximum of co-operation is needed to contact the peo ple and get a maximum number to rent lockers in order that the War Production Board can be convinced of the need for a plant. If— If I were a “Mom” or a man called “Dad”, If I could say “Son” to a service lad. If that were my sailor far out from the land. If “my soldier” fought on a desert sand. If that were “my boy” and I should feel That tomorrow he’d face the bullets of steel, I’d walk, rd run, I’d crawl to get where Some folks who know Jesus would join me PRAYiai. If I had a son who was likely to go. If hto letter said, “Soon, but none of us know,” If this were “my lad” though he’d always be In the camps, or the ports of this country. If he had been spared from sickness and sin. If he had been guided through thick and thin, I’d walk, I’d run, I’d crawl if need be. To the House of my God, who had spared him to me. —Selected. BeNTTotred Comment Realize itie Need (The {Skill Tribune) North Carolina, in conbibulittg over a half million dollars in the recent tmptAgD for the fight against infantile paral:yvis» exceeding all expectations, haa ^at the people of this state realiae the g^t need of ready funds with which to com bat this teirible disease. • BSven should we experience no further epidemics such as swept the western part of the state last summer, it will be many a year before that epidemic with its hun dreds of cases are forgotten; many a year before the “miracle of Lake Hickory,” in which many children from Surry, Wilkes and neighboring counties were involved as Tietima of poho, will fide awag. fti eontribdthig ^6dl^^.88, North Caro- liberal response ever made by the annual appeal. Last year contributiOM and the year before ABSMUNTIES totaled $1'?7,443, 886,987. . .. Fifty per cent of the fund goes to the National Foundation for Infantile lysis for use in the areas where mo^ ui^ gently needed, and 60 per cent» retained by the county chapters for local Me. Dur ing the 1944 epidemic the foundation sent a total of $677,000 into North Caroliim. During this year’s campaign, Surry county contributed $6,070 to Wilkes contributed $7,694, and Yadkm $1,666. Each of these counties, stricken with a number of cases of the disease 1^ summer knows the great need for the funds with which to fight it. It is to be hoped that this summer will not see a new outbreak of polio, and that the large amount of money contributed may be used in continued research that some day may stamp out or control it. But in event polio should again rear its ugly head, we may all be thankful that ready funds will be be available to instantly com bat it. -V— Many 4-H Club members, high school and college athletes, young farm workers and other husky youths are cutting pulp- wood today. No more worthwhile activity could be chosen by our older boy students to occupy their time between school work. Cutting pulpwood is patriotic and it’s profitable both financially and physical ly. •TIFFS BHTER WAY WALTER E. ISENHOUR Hiddenite, N. C. HONEST FAILURE Honest failure is better than dishonest success. Many a man has failed in busi ness because he was honest, would not cheat, lie nor defraud, while others have succeeded because they were not honest. However, honest failure, from the stand point of principle, manhood, uprightness, nobility, morality and spirituality really is success, while dishonest success is really failure in the final outcome of life. If a man fails because he is honest he has the respect of the best people, while the man who succeeds because he is dis honest will have the disrespect of the best people. He who fails in some things be cause he is honest will eventually succeed. On the other hand he who succeeds be cause he is dishonest will eventually fail. Many of our school boys and girls today pass their grades because they cheat. They get by with it and get their diplomas, but not justly. They do not stand on their own merit. They have looked on the pa pers of others and copied them, or have been instructed by others. This is not right. All who do wrong must take the conse quences sooner or later. To use the wrong means with which to gain the right end never makes for true success in life. Bet ter fail honestly than succeed dishonestly It is far better to lag behind and be honest, upright and sincere than go forward in the lead and be dishonest. There are those likewise who rnay make poor grades in school, but they do their best, stand on their own merit and are trustworthy. They are honest, tell the truth, live and act the truth, therefore, are absolutely dependable. Watch them as they slowly plod onward. As they stand faithfully, patiently and perseveringly they are on the road to success in life. They will make their mark some day. The world will hear of them. For the time be ing they may be classed as failures, but down in their hearts, souls and lives they are headed toward real and tme success. After all, trne success in life is to be hon est, upright, dependable, manly, woman ly, Godly and holy. This stands the test for two worlds. ■ ..
