DUKE JONES, Business Manager Member North Carolina Press Association ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AT THE POST OFFICE IN WARRENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, UNDER THE LAWS OF CONGRESS "Second Class Postage Paid At Warrenton, N. C." SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year, $3.00; Six Months, $1.50 The Real Question For obvious reasons in a highly competitive endeavor, too much publi city is not given those in the hunt for industries, and it is only when the announcement that a new industry is coming into a community, that the days and months of planning, the hours upon hours of hard work, the trips made, the interviews held, and the money expended are learned. Thus all that is certain that Warren County has obtained from its employ ment of a part-time industrial engineer is that as a result of his work that money is being raised at Littleton for a shell building and that at least one, possibly two industries, are showing a definite interest in locating at or near Warrenton. In weighing accomplishments against its $2,000 appropriation, a hard" pressed board of county commissioners is under some temptation to refuse to again include the appropriation in its budget. Such refusal, we feel, would fail to serve the best interest of Warren County. For while it is true that no factory has yet been built in Warren County as a result of its expenditure, the chances are excellent that the building of a shell building at Littleton w ill be responsible for that town's obtaining a much needed industry. If this oc curs the county will be repaid many fold for its efforts. If Warrenton and other towns keep working, the chances are good that tangible results will be obtained. Witch Weed Goldsboro News-Argus Scientists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture have won a great victory. They havfe conquered, eradicated and brought under control in some North Car olina counties the dread witch weed. The victory is of such full extent that several counties where the destroying parasite had been found in numbers have been lifted from the quarantine. Witch weed found its way into North and South Carolina counties from some unknown foreign source. The weed takes root on the root of corn or other growth and strangles to death the plant upon which it feeds. In parts of the wcrld the destruction from witch weed to crops has been alarming. Ooldsboro became the center from which the U. S. Department of Agriculture directed its fight to locate and destroy the infestation. That was about five or six years ago. It is a relief to know that what could have been a deadly scourge to corn and other growth has been brought under control. Figures By Chuck Mooney in The UNC Journalist According to the 1963 World Almanac, a 15-year-old girl has 93.5 per cent chances of marriage before she dies. The same age boy has only P2.2 per cent chances of marrying. Qlrls, therefore, seem to be 1.3 per cent more marriage able, and if they are, there should be 1.3 per cent more married women than men. This leads to the conclusion that 1.3 per cent of the married women are living la bigamy. They must be, for if they aren't married to a man, to whom are they married? Titled "Marriage Prospects of Single Men and Women," this statistical table also shows a girl is most marriageable in aay given year up to 25. Past that her chances swoop downhill. The peak year for marrying off daddy's dimpled darling is 23. She's got 21.3 pet cent chances of wedding bells before year's end. Her 23-year-old beau will be slippery, though; he's got 84.7 chances of escape, being only 15.3 per cent mar riageable. The guy a girl should stalk Is the ellgftle 26 or 27-year- old. who has a peak marriage probability of 17.3 per cent both years. A near miss could also be effective, states 25-year-old lads have 17.0 chances sad 28-year-old rogues have 17.1 chances of soon plighting a ... season, however, opens before A girl Is quite marriageable from 20 i There is no guarantee that when a store spends hundreds of dollars for sales promotion that such store will reap a harvest of profits, but the chances are good that it will, and the store makes the venture. It is cer tain that the stores which fail to make such investments are among those which fail to make a profit. The same thing, we feel, is true of counties. There is no guarantee that a single industry will be obtained as the re sult of employing a part-time or a full-time industrial engineer. But it is almost a certainty that if a do nothing policy is adopted by the county and its town we will continue to slip backwards. The incorporated towns of the county have already agreed to con tinue their appropriations for another year, when citizens of the county will have an opportunity to vote upon a tax levy for the employment of a full time industrial engineer. For the county to fail to go along with its ap propriation for another year not only would show a discouraging lack of co operation in a county effort, but might well be the cause of losing what towns and county have already spent. The question before the county commissioners is not whether the county can afford to appropriate $2,000 for its part in the salary of the indus trial engineer, but whether it can af ford not to include the item in the budget. We feel that it cannot. to 25 and she may need the practice before her bingo year of 23. Her chances start high and stay high till then-about 15 per cent. The quarry's possibilities, unfortunately, start low, hitting bingo at 25. The ideal turkey shoot is to center a female bingo on a male bingo; date males of 26, their weakest year, when the femme fatale is at her strongest 23. NEWS OF FIVE, TEN, 25 YEARS AGO.

Link '"Ilie light is still shin ing in the darkness; for the darkness has never put it out."?John 1:5. And it never will put it i out. All the darkness of this world and of hell combined cannot extinguish that Light. Darkness is negative and has no power over light. The smallest light shines freely in the blackest darkness. It is dark only when the light fails to shine. We need to remind ourselves of this fact in a dark world like ours. However, I am confident that the present darkness through out the world in human re lationships will soon give way to a brightness that the world has never known before. Re member there have been dark periods in history before and that "the light is still shining in the darkness; for the dark ness has never put it out." Without the light of Jesus we are in danger of distort ing the facts of life, as the blind men did in the fable about their several appraisials of the elephant. We desper ately need the religion of Jesus these days in order to get a whole view of life! Darkness is dangerous, and light is essential in times of stragedy. When life runs smoothly one can get along wiUi little light. For example a family can sit in the dark and engage in pleasr.nt con versation; but let an accident happen or one member of the family get sick then there 18 need for light. When some moral crisis comes we ?ade to realize our need of The Light of the World " However, it may be too late then, not that the light has been put out but because we have been dwelling in dark ness and have become insensi tive to the Light. This Eternal Light must il luminate all of life before it can be satisfying and effec ,t'v? '? "J P?rt. In describ ing the lives of the Chris tians of the second century Clement of Alexandria said: We cultivate our fields, re joicing; we sail the sea, hymn in*; in all the rest of ?ur conversation we conduct our selves according to rule." Prayer Light of the world, illumine wis darkened earth of Thine, Till everything that's human jf..i with what's divine; "Till every tongue and nation, from sins' dominion free. Rise in the new creation which springs from love and Thee. Amen.

St at i' College Hardy chrysanthemums probably give you more color than any other flowering plant you can grow. Now is I the time to prepare f or the \ late summer and early (all color parade. You have three choices: (1) buy rooted cuttings; (2) root your own cuttings from the new growth on your plants; (3) divide the root clumps. Chrysanthe mums will come back from the same location for several years, but they are usually best the first year. Plant glad corms every two weeks for a succession of flowers during the summer. In the vegetable garden suc cession plantings of sweet corn and snap beans are in order for the lower Piedmont and Eastern Carolina. Stake and mulch tomato plants. Before mulching, ? cultivate to destroy weeds. The mulch should be about four inches deep and can be made of clean straw or pine straw. Keep the tomatoes pruned by pinching out the tender shoots as they form in the axils of the leaves (at the base of the leaf stem. Don't let them get too long before pinching. The iris may be considered as the constant companion of a well-planned garden. They grow well in all sections of the state and are little trou ble. Rhizomes may be divid ed any time after the bloom ing period until about Octo ber in the lower Piedmont and Eastern Carolina and September in the mountains.
