Crop Insurance Closes April 15 Farmers Desiring This Cov erage Must Make Appli cation Before Deadline Expires The Federal Crop Insurance corporation has limited the num ber of insurance policies that can be issued in each county this year, according to H. K. James, district supervisor for the U. S. uepartment of agriculture agency. The limitation is due, James said to the heavy liability which the corporation already has. No applications will be accepted after April 15. Federal all-risk crop insurance protects the investment necessary m producing a crop of tobacco. The supervisor pointed out that because of the high cost of pro ducing an acre of tobacco as com pared with other crops, and the number of growers participating m the program last year, North Carolina ranked second among the states in the amount of liability on the,books of the corporation. With all of the usual hazards m growing tobacco confronting us, and the most farmers plant ing old varieties that are not resistant to black shank and wilt greater losses from disease are likely this year, James believes. Realizing this situation, and the fact that the number of policies is limited growers interested in this protection are urged to con tact the county crop insurance office at once. Applications are being received and policies are being issued on a first-come first served basis. The office in the courthouse annex m Whiteville serves Co lumbus and Brunswick counties. nursery school A nursery school for children J and 4 years of age was opened Monday by Mrs. Joseph B.

O. R. STUBBS This is one time that X would like to be able to write briefly. But to write briefly would not get everything said that is neces sary to explain the trip the Wom en of the Southport Presbyterian Church made to the Presbyterian Orphans’ Home at Barium Springs last Wednesday, April 3.

We were expected at Barium Spnng-s at 6 o’clock Wednesday evening, in time for supper. We trove pretty regularly, but had -o stop to buy gas and refresh nents as some of the ladies had eft without lunch. We stopped at a place in Lum 'erton that was nice, clear, and yell kept. But in this cafe there /as only one poor, lone man to ook and serve twelve hungry, alkative women. He really did a mnderful job of serving. Needless to say, we arrived te’ but since they were expect Zi US’ We did get our supper. . m case you are listening, arium Springs, we are still talk amab°Ut that deIi^htful country We left the dining room and ere taken to the church for eir mid-week prayer service.

Funeral Services For Mrs. Scottie Long Funeral services for Scottie L. bong, 74, were conducted Sunday, March 31, at 2 o’clock from Soldier Bay Baptist Church by her pastor, the Rev. Tom Wil liams. \ Pallbearers were: Rogie Evans, Vuston Hewett, George V. Smith, imes Purvis, Preston Evans, and [yzell Smith. Honorary pallbearers were dea ins of Soldier Bay Church. Mrs. Long was the wife of the [te D. Burris Long. She is sur ged by one sister, Mrs. M. T. oss, of Wilmington, one grand >n, Jerry Long, of Ash and a ughter-in-law, Mrs. Mary E. ing, of Ash. Hurricane-Proof Telephone Line Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Co. is completing a “hurricane-proof link’’ in its net work of North Carolina commun ications facilities. J. M. Wasson, vice president and North Carolina general mana ger, says the $460,000 project will provide a radio-relay section between Maxton and Wilmington, for the Wilmington-Charlotte toll line. Long distance calls now travel through underground cable between Charlotte and Maxton. The five towers in the radio relay system, to be completed this month (April), have been built to withstand winds of 125 miles per hour. The higest tower, at Smith’s near Lumberton, is 350 feet. In addition to it and to tow ers at Maxton and Wilmington, other radio-relay stations are lo cated at Council and Bishop. The system uses aimed beams between the towers to transmit telephone calls at the speed of light. The company says the system will go into service with 24 cir cuits (the equivalent of 24 pairs of long distance lines). Another 24 circuits will be added to the system this summer, and 12 more are planned for early 1958. Wilmington is now served by three major “open wire routes.” In 1954 Hurricane Hazel, which knocked out nearly 40,000 of the company’s telephones in the east ern portion of the state, halted service over all three long dis tance routes, leaving Wilmington temporarily cut off from' outside telephone communication. “We have designed this new link to prevent any future hurri cane from again isolating the Wilmington area,” Mr. Wasson says. Farmers add molasses to live stock feeds to make them more palatable, just as cooks add sauces to foods to make them more tasty. Revival Services Begin April 22 Revival services will begin on Monday night, April 22, at 7:30 o’clock at Bowden Memorial Bap tist Church at Maco. They will last through Saturday, April 27, with the Rev. Anson Smith as the guest preacher. This is the second series of meeting that the Rev. Mr. Smith has held at Bowden Memorial and I r the church considers itself very fortunate to be able to bring him back into the community and church. Every one who possibly can is urged to come hear him. Prayer meeting will be held on Friday and Saturday evenings at the church preceeding the revival as preparations for the revival services. The Rev. Walter G. Phelps is pastor of the Bowden Memorial Baptist church. Read The Want Ads Telephone Talk by PAUL B. WOODSON Your Telephone Manager ALMOST ANY HOMEMAKER around town will tell you one of the most tiring parts of running a home is “running” from room to room. “Room-to-room travel,” is how one good lady described it the other day. I’m no adviser on home economics, but was able to tell her a good way to save steps. Have additional telephones in stalled where they are most needed, like the kitchen, bed room and den. And I showed her how the smart decorator colors blend, contrast or harmonize with her own color schemes. If you need additional phones, just call our Busi ness Office and place your order. They cost so little—less than a nickel a day plus a one-time charge for color and installation. * -*■ + AMAZING THINGS in telephone communications are resulting from use of the transistor, a tiny electronic mar vel no bigger than a penny. Invented and developed by the Bell Telephone Laboratories, the transistor will do most of the things bulkier vacuum tubes will do, and others besides. It multiplies the voice thousands of times, takes up little space, gen erates little or no heat and should last indefi nitely. So it makes pos sible many new kinds of telephone equipment which will mean more and better telephone service for you. ★ ★ ★ “SCIENCE SPECTACULARS,” the Bell System’s hour long dramatic television presentations, are being enthusi astically viewed.
