The popular notion that I a severely cold Winter is always ! I followed by a hot Summer is till ' ffmnsr the weather experts say. It 1 is based upon nothing but the popu- ' lar belief that there is a natural : law of compensations which always vorks; and that is not true. Astronomers report the largest sun-spots on record, just appearing on "our" side of the sun. It is 16,000 miles across, twice the diamet er of the Earth. That means that a fair percentage of the sun's heat I passing to Earth will be blocked off. It also means that there will be storms, rains, electrical disturbances and weather freaks such as are seldom experienced. And there are other sun-spots forming; indeed, from the records of the past the experts look for a series of them over the next twelve years. 1 CITIZEN . . France and America Hene de Chambrun was born in France. His mother is a sister of the late Nicholas Long worth, and became a French citizen when she tarried the Count de Chambrun. The young man has been brought t? as a lawyer and admitted to Practice in France. He applied to the authorities of New York State I for permission to take the State I tar examination. His request was I refused on the ground that he had I not been naturalized. But young I Monsieur de Chambrun is a pretty I ?ood lawyer. He called the attention of the Court of Appeals to the I fact that in 1784 his great-greatI ftandfather on his father's side was I made a citizen of Maryland by an I act of the General Assembly of that I State, and that the citizenship was I ^stowed upon his male heirs forI ever. I The young man's great-great I grandfather was the Marquis de I Lafayette; and the Court of ApI Peals admitted him to the bar exI aginations. He is a French citizen L and an American citizen at the same time.

For I once, I heartily approve of English I ideas of what constitutes art.

Personally, [ think there is more real enter;ainment and more solid worth in ;he news-reels and the travel pictures than in all of the "features" put together. Give More Attention Home Improvement Home demonstration agents In tforth Carolina will devote more attention to the improvement of rural nomes as a result of the knowledge secured through the recent survey 3f rural homes in 12 counties of the state. "It is our purpose to begin a comprehensive plan looking to tne definite improvement of our rural homes and to this end we will not anly use the experience gained by home agents in past years but also the new facts developed in the survey made in 12 counties this spring," says Mrs. Janse S. McKimmon, in charge of home demonstration work at State College. "A real improvement in conditions will mean long-time planning in which our home economics specialists, farm engineers, the extension administrative staff, the home agent and the men and women householders will all have a part. I am hoping to see in the near future, the thinking of all these integrated into a progressive plan of procedure." Mrs. McKimmon says the work will begin this week, April 30 to May 5, which is Better Homes Week in the nation. There are certain things which can be done at once to start interest in home improvement and many of these things can be done at little or no expense. She is especially recommending ~ J- UAanflfioH onH WPll lllctl/ tUUJLd tu UCMUVUiVU ?M*M < arranged homes be made at once.l Inside planning and outside planting should be observed, she said. Many homes will serve as inspiring demonstrations of what can be done and discussions about what was seen will prove helpful. Home demonstration club members will be urged to clean up their premises, make small but necessary repairs to screen windows and doors, and to make other primary improvements, she said. Farm Questions And Answers Question: How much of the land rented under a tobacco reduction contract can be planted to food or feed crops? Answer: The area of the rented acres planted to grazing or pasture or any other crop planted for home consumption or use on the farm shall not exceed one-half of the total rented acres. If none of the acreage is planted to crops for home consumption then all the rented acres may be grazed or pastured provided that the livestock nn. ll's Return a ss w "? yil tl r \ tl s. - u d """""""1 J V( k b: Mk ti I L tt I p I u I fc w sc C I % F SjSR g it picture taken of Samuel Inaull , Public Utilities, as be boarded the Al nited States under the watchful eye ^ b b irsenate in 50 gallons of water.

W. Graeber, extension forester at State College, held six forest i planting demonstrations in Chero- t kee, Clay, Haywood, Jackson and v Madison counties and found those with whom he worked enthusiastic about the reforestation project. Mr. Graeber used short leaf pine seedlings furnished by the Log Sabin ^ Association from its nursery near ^ Sylva. As a result of the demonstration, i actual planting has been done by : * *' ! ivy fhn Illteen progressive lammo UX I/4XV | | counties. Miss Bertha Mayfield planted 1,000 seedlings on her farm in the Martin's Creek community of Cherokee County and A. F. Padgett and Jarrett Thompson of Clay County planted a thousand seedlings each. In Haywood county, Frank Leopard planted 1,000 seedlings to cover a red clay hill on his farm and said he would plant an additional 4,000 trees before the season closed. Two communities in Jackson County have started the work and three farmers in the Ivy section of Madison have put out a number of trees on red clay soil. Mr. Graeber is recommending that landowners also plant white pine, black locust and yellow poplar in addition to the pines. Black Walnut is being planted in rich spots in fields and in fence corners. "Some of these folks said that five years ago they would have ridiculed the idea of planting more trees in the mountains but now they are sorry that they did not >lant at that time," said Mr. Grae , ,1, ^ K > Theatre >n, N.
