I FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, I Locate I Agriculturally Speal -Areola Commu By FRANK W. REAMS, County Farm Agent All of a sudden-like, a com munitv building is springing up in Areola. This has been one main objective of the Areola Community Club for the past three years. The club, operated under the leadership of Mrs. Melvin Shearin the first two years, and from that date to now is under the leadership of Mr. George_ Hunter Several months ago there y"""- mat something might be ready to break loose. The Halifax Paper Company gave the club an old unused dwelling that could be dismantled and used in the con\ struction of a clubhouse. In the picture above, you see the building in process of being town apart and if you will look closely, you see Mr. Amos Capps, chairman of the County Commissioners, and Mr. Roy Lee Harmon, chief, Areola Auxiliary Rural Fire Department, pitching loose boards out of the window. A few days ago. Mr Hard -0- .vpullcU iimi inings were | on the move at Areola. Several j agricultural workers have serv-1 ed as advisers to the club dur-1 ing the past three years but' at the present time Mr. Hard-i Persimmon Making Lif By PETE IVEY CHAPEL HILL?Editor Russell Spear of the Madison Messenger believes in the principle of equal time?or equal space?when it comes to important issues of the time.

During his spare time, over the years, Pete has accumulated a formidable assortment of recipes for persimmon pies, cakes, puddings, beers and elixirs. So far as I know, no man or woman has ever challenged his supremacy in this fieid. At the same time, Pete has been generous with his findings. I am indebted to him for several rare persimmon concoctions. For that reason, and because of my concern for his continued supremacy in his chosen avocation, I am bound to dirict his attention to a phase of persimmon lore that may have eluded him. I refer to the tree itself rather than the fruit. My attention was called to the matter on a recent evening as I lounged before the 1 ? i In The News COMPACTNESS* hits water-1 yays as well as highways: Sea summer, only 5 feet 8, makes |HI bow at New York boat I^how.

During a lull in after dinner conversation I found myself entranced with the flumes in the open grate. Several small logs were giving off a clear blue flame that radiated a soothing warmth. At the same time they were singing with the soft sibilance, shallow waves make on a sandy shingle. The others about the fireplace, enjoying one of those bemused silences that occaslonlly grip a group of congenial people, stared into the fire, and listened. When the enchantment of the moment had stretched to the breaking point, I broke the spell with the following uninspired remark: "How come that wood sings out the way it does when it bums, Harvey? Is it green? "Not on your life," Harvey replied quickly. "It's persimmon wood. It always burns like that." "How long have you been using it?" I asked. Since last summer," he said. "I pulled a few sticks out of a pile of wood my tenant had cut and brought them to the house. The best thing about it aside from its singing is the fact that it never pops and scatters sparks over the room." Once I learned that our fire was feeding on persimmon wood, my nostrils began to quiver. They seemed to pick up an aromatic hint of the per simmon fruit. When I suggested this, several other admitted that they sensed an unusual fragrance in the room. Here, possibly, is an avenue of persimmon lore that even the great Ivey has not explored, I thought. A whole new field of research opened up before me. "Is this noble wood pui mi all J vuiuiucitiai use that you know of?" I asked my host. "Not to my knowledge," he replied. "It never grows big enough to make timber. But, say, why dont you check with Pete Ivey at Chapel Hill?" "Do you know Pete?" I exclaimed. "Not personally," he admitted. "But I understand he is an outstanding authority on the persimmon. Suppose you write him and see what he knows about persimmon wood." "ril do it," I said. "Good,' Tie said.

THE WAE iod Buys, Science May Help Save Aging Great Lakes WASHINGTON ? Prematura "aging" of the Great Lakes largest continuous body ol fresh water in the world, is of continuing concern to Amer ican conservationists. Lakes Superior, Michigan Huron. F.rie, and Ontario art in no immediate danger ol drying up. the National Geo graphic Society says. They will last for many more thousands of years. But sewage and in dustrial waste may be speeding up the natural aging process by which a lake is slowly con verted into a swamp, then dry land. The University of Michigan's Institute of Science and Tech nology is now trying to develop a technique for measuring the rate at which lake plants convert sunlight into vegetative material. The like experts, known as limnologists say measuring this rate is vital to understand and eventually control a lake's aging. Lakes Are Ephemeral Lakes appear to be permananent features of beautiful landscapes, but they last hardly a minute, geologically speaking. No sooner are they born than relentless forces begin to destroy them. Sediment fills the basin, and erosion tears down its edges. Near the easterly edge of Lake Erie, for instance, Niagara Falls is cutting back into rock at the speed of about four feet a year. At this rate the falls will have retreated to the lake in 27,000 years and unleased Erie waters directly into Lake Ontario. The clarity of water spilling over the falls suggests that a vast amount of sediment has been dropped on the floors ol the lakes. A study of Lake Michigan shows an accumulation there of about three Inches per century. The world would soon have no lakes if new ones were not constantly being formed. A lake may start in many ways? by a fracture in the earth's crust, a lava flow blocking a valley, or by a glacier, which is the most important lakeproducing agent. Glaciers Form Thousands Of Lakes A glacier moves across the land like a gigantic bulldozer, scooping up earth here and dumping it there. In the process it often creates lake bas ins. The great ice age, which ended about 10,000 years ago, created thousands of lakes in northern regions of Europe and North America. Finland alone has more than 60.000 glacial lakes. Norway and Sweden, Ontario, Hanitoba, and the Northwest Territories of Canada, and Maine and Minnesota also are thickly set with them. At their southernmost advance, glaciers covered the whole Great Lakes area. As the ice sheet retreated under warming climatic conditions, lakes developed. The largest of North America's prehistoric lakes, Lake Agassis, was almost as big as the State of Nevada. It sprawled across parts of Minnesota, North Dakota, Ontario, Manitoba, and tion for wood products go into the making of golf club driver heads. Persimmon wood is tongu, and the champion golfer can give the ball a smack and send It far without fear of splitting the wood, thanka to the ruggedness of persimmon. 2. Other things made from persimmon wood: shuttles in the textile plants, and various kinds of handles for tools. 3. The persimmon tree is used extensively to recover land that has been eroded. When land that is badly afflicted with erosion is being rejuvenated in a back-to-fertility movement, the first thing to plant in the worn out soil are the roots of the persimmon tree. The persimmon tree has a way of catching hold of the soil and providing the basis grip for revitalizing land. So, these are additional reasons why people should stand firm against those who would chop down, persimmon trees. Aside from the delicious flavor of persimmon pudding and other persimmon dishes and beverages, perhaps we mm enlist among Friends of the Persimmon all golf players, all textile manufacturers and workers, all people who use handles on tools, and all pee. 'REN RECORD Use Res Saskatchewan. Over the centuries. its waters drained into Hudson Bay, and the great lake disappeared. Today the flat basin is filled with wheat farms. The deglaciation of North American involved the melting j of 5,700,000 square miles of ice, two miles thick in the cen[ ter. The water would have , caused a world-wide catastro. phe if it had been released suddenly. Instead the thawing took place over 10,000 years. ! Colonial Official j To Retire Feb. 6 ' NORFOLK. Va?J. W Wood. vice president in charge of the ' Eastern Region of Colonial 1 Stores Incorporated, will retire on February 6 after a career 1 of more than 40 years with the super market chain. Mr. Wood joined Colonial, then the D. Pender Grocery Company, as a grocery clerk in October of 1919 shortly after World War I service in the United States Navy. Within a few months after joining 1 the company, he was promoted to store manager. He was made a district superintendent in 1922, a general superintendent in 1925, a general manager in 1930, assistant vice president in 1938 and vice president in j 1940. He was elected to the ' Colonial Board of Directors in | March of 1950. As vice president in charge ; of Colonial's Eastern Region, | Mr. Wood has been responsible j , for the operation of 158 super- j markets in Virginia. Maryland i and North Carolina. Despite the pressure of his, business responsibilities. Mr. ; Wood has found time to serve i extensively in Norfolk and' ' Tidewated Virginia Civic Af- J fairs. He is a member of the Board of the Norfolk General Hospital and a past chairman 1 of the United Communities 1 | Fund of Norfolk. Virginia Beach, Princess Anne and Norfolk Counties. N#rar Frniich Solomon has attested to the j ; strangeness of a man's ways j with a maid, but the way of a maid being courted has always . been a mystery to a man. 1 A -girl dismissed her sweetheart with the statement that ( she could not think of marrying until he had a few thousand dollars. A few months later she met him and asked him how much he had saved. "Thirty-five dollars," was the reply. "Well," she said with a blush, "I guess that's near enough." Christmas Gem Among the Christmas gems was the story about the little boy who approached Santa in a Birmingham department store with a long list of requests. He wanted a bicycle and a wagon, a chemical set, a cowboy suit, a set of trains, a football and roller skates. "That's a pretty long list," Santa said firmly. "I'll have to check in my book and see if you were a good boy." "No, no," the youngster said quickly. "Never mind checking. I'll just take the roller skates." The U. S. expects to export about 6.5 million bales of cot- , ton during the 1960-61 season, ' as compared with 7.2 million , in 195960.
