Bonds Over America GORGASHOUSE Because pioneers in Alabama did not have wives and children with them, education received little attention until statehood was achieved in 1820. Poor and middle-class children attended the public schools while children of planters and othei well-to-do families attended private schools up to the War Between the States. The University of Alabama was opened at Tuscaloosa in 1831. Gorgas House, built in 1829 and occupied by the famous Confederate General while he was president ol the University, stands as a splendic tribute to education's rapid rise ir the State.

Gives A Report Company Serves Many Homes Both In City And Rural Areas Furnishing telephones for rural North Carolina and South Carolina through resumption of a program interrupted in 1942 is one of the principal postwar projects of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company. I This was learned today from tt co>-/-?linoe MailflP'.ir Cj. n. VV a.~?CMJii, v,ai vimuD w for the telephone company. Mr. iWasson said that resumption of I this program long has been a major objective of Southern Bell, I together with the task cf providing service to the large number | of applicants who have been unable to obtain telephones because of the lack of equipment due to (war needs. i When war came, Southern Bell , was in the midst of a rural telephone development program dej signed to extend the' convenience of the telephone in farm areas. The program, which was started before materials which go into telephone manufacture became ; scarce, had to be stopped in the j fall of 1942 after nearly 2,100 new ' rural telephones had been installi ed in the Carolinas at a cost of approximately $190,000. About 1475 miles of new telephone lines were constructed in the two states in connection with the program. Before actual wor began, a great deal of planning and engineering had been done, looking | toward a continually developing I farm program which would take j telephone service into area after ! area. "This is the same program, ' with expansion and new developments, which the telephone company plans to resume as early in the future as conditions will permit," Mr. Wasson said. The telephone official continued: "We already have men in the field making a survey preparatory I to drawing up definite plans in ' order that we will be ready to i resume work just as soon as equipment and manpower have again become available, j "In addition to requiring equip ment, tne extension 01 uie telephone system into more and more farm areas will engage a large number of our people. To help with this program, we are going to rely a great deal upon more than 500 Carolinas telephone employees now in the armed forces. In the main, these employees row on leave are technically skilled people, such as linemen, central office technicians and engineers, Bonds Over America WINE GLASS PULPIT All over New England stand white churches, emblematic of Freedom of Religion. Nowhere is there a more impressive shrine than' the wine glass pulpit in the Sandown, N. H., meeting house, erected about 1773. The original pews are there, too, where the congregation listened to sermons more than 170 years ago that would have brought banishment to concentration camps under Nazi dominion. That's the American way; liberty for each to worship God in his own way. That is one of the reasons why our men are fighting?and one more reason why we must buy War Bonds to the limit to keep them winning. U. S. Treasury Department i OT, SOUTHPORT, N. C. whose activities will be a big factor in farm telephone development." Mr. Wasson said that the Bell Telephone Laboratories have made many new developments in the art of telephony during the war and that Southern Bell will draw heavily upon these new creations to further the farm telephone ; program. He pointed out that one vital phase of the rural telephone projects ? that of obtaining the necessaiy equipment?must await' the industrial reconversion period, because the manufacturers cf| peacetime telephone equipment are still fully engaged in making war communications equipment. And of course their reconversion to peacetime manufacture will be affected by the nature of the con: tinuing communications needs for the war against Japan. "We are going to be ready to | resume our program at the earliest possible time," said Mr. Wasson. "A great period of progressiveness surely lies ahead for agriculture in the Carolinas, and the coming of the telephone to more and more farm homes will | certainly be an important phase j of that growth. We are looking J forward to the opportunity of beI ing a part of this progress." HINTS TO- i HOME-MAKERS j By RUTH CURRENT , By RUTH CURRENT N. C. State College Black walnuts need prompt gathering and hulling as soon as , they are ripe. A handpower corn J I sheller can be used for hulling, | (but rolling nuts under foot on J the ground also removes hulls easily. ( After hulls are off, dump nuts immediately into a tub of water | , and churn with a broom until clean. Then spread nuts on the| floor in a well-ventilated room to cure. Stir nuts frequently so that ! there will be no molding. ' * * Your child's school lunch is important! Unless the child gets milk as a beverage at three meals it is difficult to get in his quart I a day. Also, because of the child's Th # mmmmmm t m ~ 1 V? smaller stomach capacity, dividing his food fairly equally between , all three meals is much better | than having him "catch up" at a heavy dinner at night. Packed lunches are apt to be monotonous and unbalanced unless milk, frtjit and vegetables are included. ! Highly seasoned foods, stimulat-' ing beverages, and sweets should have very little place in the child's diet. Fruit or milk desserts: may be added occasionally. ... New electric irons now coming on the market have all-plastic, handles. These handles are light- j er in weight and more comfort-j ~~ able to hold than the older type handles, but need special protec-10f tion against dropping or falling tl>: because they will smash. A fall can cause serious breakage to any electric iron, new or, iir old. To save the iron from fall- jj? ing always set it on a stand or thi on its own heel rest on a firm, {.'JJ level place.
