Big Hail Storm Last Friday Caused Severe Damage In Penrose Section Victory Gardens Are De stroyed, And Other Crops Severely Damaged By N. L. Ponder Not in the memory of the old est citizens has there been such a hail storm as visited the Penrose community last Friday evening. The hail balls were of unusual sizes and queer shapes and lashed heavily a mile strip for half an hour. It came in connection with a storm from the northwest. Saturday morning children ga thered up sheets of ice formed from the accumulation of hail that fell twelve hours before. Needless to say, victory gardens showed not much signs of victory under such strafing. Vines of potatoes, beans, peas and such along with greens like mustard, turnips or spinach were beaten into pulp. Corn had its share of the battle and may have to be planted over. Hoofing of the tar type had to be replaced with new. Naturally, heart sickness came to those who had prided themselves on the re sults of their labor in victory gar dens. Planting over can be done, but other plantings cannot be re garded a§ the first that was so diligently nurtured and dearly cherished. It is always pitiful to lose like that. Several Enon folks attended the big singing convention at Hender sonville Sunday. J. R. Brown reports his wife, who has been in the hospital twice recently, as up and still improv ing.

On the Li brary committee with her are Mrs. Roy Long and Mrs. Beulah Zach ary. Mrs. Oliver Orr. president of the Brevard Women’s Civic club, yesterday stated that a delegation from her organization is planning to meet with the commissioners in June and urge the establishment of a county library. “If we are ever going to do it, it seems to me that now is the time,” Mrs. Orr declared. The UDC members have pro vided the only library service available here. This library was established in 1911 and has been operated more or less continously since that time. In 1912 the UDC bought a building for $314 and they have spent over $1000 on it since that time. It was purchased as a chapter house but has been used primarily as a library. To secure books, persons are supposed to be members of the library and the charge is 25c per year for adults and 10c for chil dren. At the present time the li brary has approximately 200 mem bers. Of course any one is permitted to rent books that are on the rent al shelves and a charge of 10 cents a week is made. The UDC library now has over 3000 books. A few days ago Paul Smathers gave the library an as sortment of 500 books. Those interested in the public LAST Rim HELD FOR UNCLE BILL WILLIAMS, AGE 09 Well Known Man Pasted Away Suddenly.

FARM REPORTS -FROM PAGE ONE be required to show how he de termined the acreage of the field, whether measured by chains, steps or from previous records of AAA measurements.” The plan of reporting 1943 per formance by individual farmers was adopted on a nation-wide scale by the AAA in an effort to save labor which otherwise would be engaged in active production and also gasoline and tires, he said. In former years, AAA per formance was reported by com mitteeraen, reporters, or others employed by the AAA. Chairman T. J. Wilson said AAA community committeemen will assist farmers in making reports and must approve all reports made from their communities. In addition, he said, some farms in each community will be spot checked by the committeemen and others. Farmers carrying out late prac tices for which a payment is made under the AAA program will be required to make a supplemental report at the close of the program year on December 31.
