Mr. and Mrs. William H. King
of Norlina announce the engage
ment of their daughter, Lisa Elaine,
to Douglas Lee Burton of Atlanta,
Ga. The wedding is planned for
Dec. 30.
French Word
"Suede" is the French word for
Sweden. French tailors were intrigued
by the first soft, napped finish cloth
from Sweden that resembled leather,
so they named it after their neighbor
to the north.
We're all aglow with
the spirit of Christmas
and we want to share
it with you. Thanks.

Mark December 22
On Your Calendar
i
By MISS EMILY BALLINGER
Extension Agent
Will the family be sitting down to
a 15-pound turkey Christmas Day?
Then mark Dec. 22 on your kitchen
calendar. That's the day you should
take the turkey out of the freezer and
put it in the refrigerator.
"Never thaw a frozen bird at room
temperature,'' warns Dr. Carolyn
Lackey, extension foods and nutri
tion specialist at North Carolina State
University. Those who do are inviting
food poisoning to join them at their
holiday feast.
Food can have enough bacteria to
make a person sick and still look,
smell and taste fine. The symptoms of
food poisoning arc similar to that of
the flu. Young children and older
adults usually suffer more from acase
of food poisoning that do healthy
adults.
Food poisoning is avoidable when
the cook plans ahead.
For additional information on
cooking a turkey, contact the Home
Economics Extension Agents Office
at 257-3640.

Special Program
Henderson CPA Robert W. Taylor
recently completed the Governmental
Accounting and Auditing Certificate
of Educational AchievementProgram
(CEA).
The CEA Program is prepared by
the Continuing Professional Ed
ucation Division of the American

(A1CPA) to further the knowledge of
CPAs in the continually changing field
of Governmental Accounting and
Auditing. To obtain this designation
as certified governmental auditors,
Taylor had to participate in 64 hours
of continuing education courses and
successfully complete four examina
tions.
Taylor is an audit partner with
Holden, Moss, Knou, Clark & Tay

ciation of Certified Public Account
ants. In addition, Taylor serves on the
NCACPA Quality Review Executive
Committee.
Continuing professional education
courses, offered on such subjects as
accounting and auditing, lax, and
advisory services, are designed to
maintain and promote professional
competence, increase CPAs' skills and
insure a continued high level of serv
ice to the public. The CEA Program
achieves that goal through an inten
sive series of integrated courses in a
particular subject

fessional organization of CP As with a
membership of more than 274,000. In
its continuing efforts to serve the
public interest the organization sets

Champion Card
Painter
A cheerful, 76-year-young lady
took up a brush one day and started
painting pictures. She painted a
batch" of three or four pictures each
week until she was 100 years old, and
older. Anna Mary Robertson Moses,
known as Grandma Moses, became
one of the champion Christmas card
artists in the world. Around 50 million
people have received Christmas greet
ings with Grandma Moses prints on
thGrandma Moses especially liked
the scent of hemlock around the Christ
mas tree, and the smell of varnish on
old toys that some thrifty person re
painted for a new Christmas toy.
