Lions Club Thanks Times For Its
Efforts To Keep Greyhound Lines
Several Talks Were Made.
New Year Resolutions
Suggested
By unanimous vote members of
the Brevard Lions’ club, at their
regular meeting last Thurs. even
ing, thanked The Transylvania
Times for an editorial in the De
cember 30 issue, expressing oppo
sition to the leasing by the Grey
hound lines of the franchise to
maintain bus service between Bre
vard and Hendersonville to the
City Bus lines of Hendersonville.
The motion was made by Lion
Ralph Fisher after Lion Ed Mc
Mahan had urged that the club
be well represented at the hear
ing on the question in Hender
sonville this morning.
The program for the evening
was in charge of Lion Tom Var
ner and related to the New Year.
Lion B. W. Thomason spoke on
new year resolutions and said
that people who felt that they had
been remiss in some respect
should rather make “new day”
resolutions and adhere to them.
Lion Ed McMahan enumerated
and discussed briefly his concep
tion of Lion goals for the new
year, listing first participation in
every effort to strengthen and
facilitate the war effort. Post-war
planning was mentioned next.
Civic improvement, moral uplift,
curbing vice and immorality, were

Kudzu Good Legume
For North Carolina
Kudzu is an excellent legume
for reclaiming gullied lands, for
grazing, for hay or soil improve
ment in North Carolina, says Enos
C. Blair, Extension agronomist at
N. C. State College.
Kuzdu is usually started by set
ting two or three year old crowns,
or rooted sections of the vines.
Seedlings may also be grown in a
nursery. The crowns should be set
in late winter, before the plants
start growing.
“On gullied land, growers dig
holes about 20 feet apart, 18
inches square, and 15 inches deep.
These holes are filled with a mix
ture of soil, manure, and one
pound of superphosphate or com
plete fertilizer. Two plants are set
in each hole,” Blair says.
On cultivated land, he recom
mends that furrows be run about
15 feet apart, and that manure or
fertilizer be applied in the furrow.
The land is then ridged as for
cotton and the plants set 5 to 6
feet apart, with about 500 plants
per acre.
Row crops are grown between
the rows of kudzu for two or three
years, dropping back with cultiva
tion as the kudzu spreads. This
cultivation enables the plants to
root properly in the freshly cul
tivated soil.
goals cited. “As individuals, be a
Lion,” Mr. McMahan said, “and
you will be a good citizen.”
Lion Burt Loomis gave a cau
tious and thoughtful analysis of
the war outlook. He observed
that General Eisenhower, in pre
dicting victory over the Nazis in
1944, qualified it by the proviso
that every citizen do his part.
Dr. Loomis compared the position
of the Allies now with their plight
a year ago, when Egypt was men
aced and the Germans had laid
siege to Stalingrad. Dr. Loomis
said we had arrived at the point
where a desperate struggle was
impending and said we “might be
too hopeful of the immediate out
come.” He then cited evidences
of friction among the Allies,
mentioning the incipient contro
versy over the eastern frontier of
Poland, and said that others would
develop as countries were lib
erated from the Nazi yoke.
In the Pacific, Dr. Loomis re
minded his hearers, we are still
3,000 miles from Tokyo. The Japs
moreover, have at their command
the vast resources of the lands
they conquered at the outset of
the war. After formal resistance
by the Japanese had been crush
ed, Dr. Loomis said it was likely
that the remnants of their armies
would flee to the hills and there
continue to fight. “But,” Dr.
Loomis continued, “we have Al
lies and the strength that comes
from a righteous purpose. The
task before us will require the
fullest measure of devotion and
all of our energy.”
Keys for having gotten two new
members for the club during the
past year were presented Lion
Frank Kerber and Lion President
Jack Trantham. They were pre
sented by Lion McMahan.

Timely Hints For
Farm Homemakers
BY RUTH CURRENT
Keep the medicine chest out of
children’s reach, or keep it locked.
Label all medicines plainly. No
patent medicines. Read directions
carefully. When measuring medi
cines, remove the cork, wipe the
neck of the bottle, measure the
medicine, and wipe the neck of
the bottle again before replacing
the cork. Pour medicine from the
side of bottle opposite the label
to keep the label clean..
Write on the label the date you
bought the medicine and how it is
to be used.
Keep poisons in dark bottles,
specially shaped, and use stoppers
different from ordinary ones.
“Spring clean” your medicine
chest twice a year and throw away
old medicines. Liquid drugs evap
orate. Pills and tablets deteriorate
with age.
Prescriptions which have been
used during an illness should not
be kept indefinitely.
Save all metal jar tops this win
ter, the War Food Administra
tion advises housewives. Wartime
scarcities make every jar and lid
valuable either for canning or
keeping food. Many one-piece
screw tops on jars of coffee, pea
nut butter, pickles, and mayon
naise should be saved for next
year’s canning. Other lids and
jars, not suitable for canning, can
be useful for jelly or marmalade,
refrigerator dishes, or dry foods.
For future conveniences save each
jar with its lid on.
Especially worth saving are the
small metal screw caps from coffee
and other food jars known as “size
63”. More commercial food prod
ucts are being put up in “63”
jars, because the small opening
means a saving of metal, rubber
