The women have been studying the farm outlook for 1939 and below is an article written by Mrs. W. H. Best I from the Middleburg Home Demon stration Club along this line. OUTLOOK FOR 1939. By Mrs. W. H. Best. The farm outlook for 1939 is some what encouraging as there will be more people at work, which means more money in circulation, and a lar ger consumption of farm products and that in turn means more money to farm families which they can invest in manufactured articles for the com i fort and convenience of the farm j family. Income from farm supplies and other sources will be higher in 1939, with the cost of production remain ing about the same. Government pay ments will exceed those of 1938. This too mcan s more dollars to spend in 1939. With a good supply of canned goods and other foods to begin the year and looking forward to higher incomes both in farm products and in money, we still need to practice economy in spending and wise buy ing if we hope to maintain our homes on a high standard of living. With all the ups and downs in farm life for the past ten year s there is still a decided step forward. We have more social life, better homes and sur roundings, better equipped farms managed on modern methods better roads and cars, and electric power in many homes with a number of con- that add to the farm fam ily’s health and happiness. We should plan our 1939. yes— First, to produce an adequate sup ply of fruits and vegetables for a well balanced diet each day in the year, supplementing a canning budget for j each member of the family, and then a generous supply for emergency cases in the school or community. Second, plan a varied crop of poul | try, pork, dairy products, cotton and i tobacco with an abundance of feed stuff to supply the stock. Then, if the crops fail, we will not have “All our eggs in one basket” Remember that money is not always needed if we can exchange our farm products for the things we need and must have. With every home family working together as a unit for food, clothing and shelter, and with their spare time spent in reading, religion and recreation we can hope to come through 1939 on top and eventually pull out of the depression by wise buy ing and spending. Call on your farm and home agents and they will be glad to give you all. the help they can. Next week the 4-H clubs will meet at Middleburg on Monday and Towns ville on Thursday. Home Demonstra tion Club meetings next week will be as follows: The Floyd town Club on Tuesday with Mrs. J. M.

EARNHARDT WILL BE AT M. E. ON SUNDAY Dr. D. E. Earnhardt, president of Louisburg col.ege, will conduct the morning service at the First Metho dist Episcopal church Sunday at 11 o’clock.

Thursday has been 1.41 inches, H. L. Allen, off'cial'; Weather Bu reau observer here, said today. Since 6 o’clock Friday evening the precipitation was .31 of an inch. For 24 hours preceding (> n. m. Friday, the fall was 1.10 inches, it was stated. No damage has been reported here as the result of the steady rainfall. / Roberts Vote Was an Issue of Patronage (Continued from Page One.) j bench in Virginia was not so very im portant nationally. It is agreed that it was a pretty good appointment also —nothing the matter with .Judge Roberts. But Senators Glass and Byrd of Vir ginia had made a different selection, and it is recognized that a Senator is entitled to dictate federal appoint ments within his own bailiwick. And here were two Senators, in partner ship, who concurred. It made a strong team. Other Senators ar Q like this; They want political “pap’' as much as Senators Glass and Byrd do. If they do not support Glass and Byrd will not support them, in turn. Yet the administration does not regard Glass, Byrd and their ilk as genuine New Dealers; consequent y it does not heed their admonitions. It rates them not exactly as Republicans, but as some other alien political breed; so, when they tell what they want, they do not get it. Nevertheless, there are Democrats (even New Deal Democrats) who still fee, that Glass and Byrd are Democrats under the skin. Parenthetically; Glass and Byrd are no more the same with Neely or Pepper than Cap per and Frazier, and Austin and Hale are the same. The parties are completely split up. ‘ And President Roosevelt has not 1 got either party that he can depend on—not if that Roberts vote means anything. 1 (Moreover, it is a good thing. Checks and balances! That was the original idea. It has been lost sight of lately. Who Is a Communist? In connection with the Roberts ap pointment, nobody has asked, “Is he a Communist?” That is rational, anyhow. Nobody so considered him. But the query was put concerning Tom Amlie, for the Interstate Com merce Commission. And concerning Harry Bridges, labor leader. And they both have answered, “No.” Who knows better than each of them what he is. If anybody asflts me, “Am I a Demo crat or a Republican?” and I reblv “Yes” or “No” I assume that my word will be taken for it. It gen eral y is, at the primary polls. There is not much discredit, one way or the other. If i S ay lam not a Commun ist, why shouldn’t that “go” too? I ought to know. We read a newspaper yesterady in which there wasn’t a line about Jackie Coogan and Betty Grable. There isn’t a thing in the papers these days. pom ms to Derides Secular Tunes and Words In Churches; Two New Members Dr. Hubert M. Poteat, of the fa culty of Wake Forest College, was the principal speaker at the weekly lunch eon meeting of the Henderson Kiwnnis club Friday evening, and discussed church music. He derided the intro duction of secular tune s and words into the sacred programs of worship in the churches, and presented the thought before a civic bodv in a man ner that held the attention of the members throughout. Clarence E. Greene, president of the club, presided at the meeting. Dr. Poteat was presented by A. P. Barnes, chairman of the program. Roy Tolbert was presented as a now member of the club by Dr. H. L. Al len, and was welcomed by Jasper B. Hicks. Allen Tucker was presented as the junior Kiwanian "or the month from the Henderson high school. Ho was introduced by Prof. S. M. Crowder, .of the high school faculty, an.d was welcomed by D. T. Dickie. The Wa’ke Forest professor, a talent ed musician himself, both vocal and instrumental,, said tho old hymns of the ages bad never been improved upon for true worship services and bemoaned the fact that the people, have taken all too much waltz, rag time and other tunes for their church music with words close akin to tho tunes. He said there was no worship in such services. He quoted from many stanzas and resorted to the piano frequently to illustrate his points and to show how near the rag time jingles may so-called hymns of the church and the Sunday school ur<\ Dr. Poteat blamed church boards and publishing houses for much of the abuse ho complained of, and said too much commercialism had crept into the sale of hymn books. If the ’ writers of the words and music of new songs used in the churches were primarily interested in the good they could do, these new numbers wolud not carry copright protection as most of them do. Mrs. A. S. Watkins was present at the meeting as a guest of her hus band, and W. B. Harrison was a guest of A. P. Barnes. F. J. Beasley, of Baltimore, and until recently a resi dent of Henderson, as also at the meeting, the guest of G. O. McPhail. Dr. Poteat was a guest of the club. R. W. Bruin, chairman of the pro gram committee for Ladies Night on next Friday evening, made extensive announcements about that event. Granted License James Harry Bryan, Jr., and Katherine Celene Al len, both of Henderson, were granted license to wed yesterday at the Vance Iff'risiry office. Their wedding this afternoon at 5 o’clock was an out standing social event in Henderson of the late winter season. CAN YOU ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS? See Page Four i ' 1.
