VOL. VIII.— IHIS, THAT ' AND THE OTHER Mrs. Theo. B. Davi3 In my childhood I was told by our nurse that if a white person were bit ten by a negro with blue gums, the bitten one would surely die. It may be that the nurse thought it would help her to manage us, since she had blue gums. All the same I’ve been watching with keen interest the pro gress towards recovery of the Raleigh policeman who has been suffering from a bite by a negro man. Wonder if that man had blue gums. The following recipe for artichoke relish was given the Wakefield Home Demonstration Club by Mrs. Mcln ness and is the best relish I evei made. V 2 peck artichokes 1 small head cabbage. 1 bunch celery (or 2 tablespoonfuls celery seed.) 8 to lb medium sized onions ft to 8 red pimiento peppers 14 to cupful salt 1 tablespoonful turmeric 4 teaspoonfuls powered mustard gallon vinegar :t cupfuls sugar (more or less) Scrub the artichokes, wash the celery, peel the onions, seed the pep pers. take off the outer leaves of the cabbage. Chop the vegetables fine. (I run them through the. meat chop per. using the coarse blade). Put all except the onions in a cloth or thin sack and press out as much juice f and water as you can. Bring the vinegar to a boil, add the spices, sugu/ and salt, stir well, -ir well, and add the vegetables. Boil :»r five minutes. You may, if de cd. use ’2 cupful of plain flour to thicken the relish; but. if you press the water out of the ground-up mix ture. it will not be necessary to thick en it. Seal it in glass jars while hot This will make 6 or 7 quarts. It is fine for sandwiches for school lunch es, or in any way you try it. As in dicated by the directions, you can take various liberties with the recipe as to sweetness and saltness. But do not take too many with the vege tables and flavorings, if you want it to taste like the original recipe. One neighbor told me once that her relish was fairly good, but didn't taste like mine, though she had made it just as directed. However, she said she had no celery and used more cabbage instead: that she had no pep pers nor turmeric—and yet she did not see why hers had a different | taste. I If you have artichokes and don 11 gave celery, you can make a fine sub stitute by peeling and chopping the artichokes, then sprinkling them with celery salt or celery seed. Pet them stand for a while, and use in salad a , you would celery. The artichokes ere more tender and crisp than is most celery, and are specially good in potato salad. Speoking of substitutes reminds me .if wh<m our oldest son was quite small and told a plavmate: “My mother can make the BEST chicken salad out of pork.” Woman’s Club Because on next Thursday the fed erated women’s clubs of the eighth district meet at Garner there will he nr, general meeting of the Zehulon t» The meeting will he held on Tuesday.

C., Friday, October 21, 1932 It Is Hard For A Hungry Citizen To Be A Good Citizen The boy whose stomach is empty cannot be expected to do good work at school. Babies undernourished through another winter may be handicapped by frail bodies through life. The hungry father of a family is hardly the man to seek employment with persistence or to do well on the job when he gets it. Before you can save a man’s soul it is often necessary to feed his body. You have no right to expect the civic virtues of patience, courage and honesty from starving, freezing men and women. If they preserve a just atti tude toward the laws of the city in which they live, it is a miracle. This winter, as never before, it is the duty of all who are well-clad, well-housed, and well-fed, to help the less fortunate. The fact that you gave last year, and the year before, does not lessen your resposibility. The fact that you cannot afford a large contribution must not deter you. The upturn of business with a gradual improve ment of economic conditions does not remove the crisis of this moment. Emergency appropriations by the federal government amount to $300,000,000, but they meet only half the in creased national needs for human relief. The rest is up to you! How will your dollars be used? First of all, they will feed the hungry, and relieve the absolute wants of the un employed. They will be used, also, to take care of the sick and aged. They will help to maintain hospitals, orphanages and schools. They will make possible clinics and visiting nurses. J he dollars you give are invested in the forces of civil ization right in your country!—Welfare Relief and .Mobil ization for 1932. The Welfare and Relief Mobilization for 1932 is a co operative national program to reinforce local fund rais ing for human welfare and relief needs. No national fund is being raised: each community will have full control of its own people: each community will have full control of the money it obtains.

Oct. 19—Last Sat urday J. T. Horrell, living on high way 90. three miles east of Zebulon, was bitten on the hand by a small dog. In trying to catch the dog a little latter, his 13-year-old girl was bitten ;on the lip. The dog also bit the four vear-old child of Tom Strickland, six ! other dogs, and killed a cat.

Dr. Albert Anderson Dies Dr. Albert Anderson, for 19 years head of the State Hospital for the Insane, died in Raleigh Sunday morn ing after an illness of 10 days. The funeral was held on Monday p. m. Dr. Anderson was born at Eagle Rock in Wake County in 1859. He was a loyal member of the Methodist Church. He is survived by his wife, one sister, and other relatives. Among the nieces is Mrs. M. J. Sexton, of Zebulon. Dr. Anderson has held many of fices of honor and trust and was at his death president of the Raleigh Academy of Medicine. Fair Crowds Are Very Large The attendance last week at the j State Fair was all or more than had j been expected. Despite lowered en-j trance rates, due to the sale of “block tiekts", the receipts were gratifyingly large. The exhibits were better than many would have thought possible, when the dry weather was taken into con sideration. County and community booths were of special interest. The blot on the Fair this time was the many gambling devices that took more than a gambler’s chance at the money of all who patroizned them. About 50 of these stands were closed before the Fair was over and the grand jury is expected to take action with regard to 0T matter. Some Raleigh officials are acused of being to some extent in league with gamb-1 ling places. Sheriff Turner and Chief-i police Barbour are said to have led in the onslaught on the gambling stands. General News In Brief A weathercock, 144 years old, roosts on a spire atop the First National . Bank Building, at Portland, Me. The motion picture industry em ploys 325,000 persons in production, distribution and exhibition in the U. S. alone.

The total amount of radium in the world weighs one-half pound—enough to fill a coffee cup. The United States has two-thirds of the world’s supply, j valued at $18,000,000, most of which is used in the treatment of cancer. Nearly 900 different processes are necessary to extract radium from the cornotite ore in which the rare sub stance is found.

It is also stated by scientists that a pair of rats under the favorable con ditions might in one year increase their numbers to 12,000, if none of the, descendants died. Red squill powder is declared to be j i the best poison for rats and mice j Heavy Rains Do Damage i The heaviest rains that some sec ' j tions of the state have had for four years have fallen since last Friday. , * Gastonia had more than 8 inches of j rain since last Saturday. Reidsville . haj more than 5 inches.

Rail roads in the western part of the state have suffered damage and in some places traffic has been disrupted. In : the east, peanuts have been damaged, and on the coast the nets of fisher men have been torn by storms. High ways have shared in the general des truction, many being closed at points were bridges are gone or concrete un dermined. STATEMEN FROM WAKE WELFARE DEPARTMENT Mr. Ferrell of the ’lake County Welfare Department asks that the | community remember that the worst | part of the year is yet ahead. People ! who are aided should, during early fall, use just as little as possible; i for when cold weather comes, there will be the extra need for fuel and ! clothes. He says it is not certain that ; there will be more Red Cross flour for free distribution, so, if possible, ; hold as much as you can till greater need comes. Mrs. Bust, State Well ire Com missioner. says the coming winter will be even worse than ti e last and communities should begin now to care for those who will be in need later. Her uggestion for organization i< t> have each church and other local or ganizations to appoint one from their number to represent that body on the general committee for the community. The town should appoint some one to represent it on this committee. In the administration of charity funds in our community, we believe all or ganizations are represented except \ the town. Mrs. Bost also thinks that form cards or sheets should be prepared on which each applicant might record such information as would be helpful o the committee in finding the worthi ness of the applicant. If the com mittee could not make the prelimin ary investigation then, the applica tion should he approved by some re putable citizen. Then the card should be filed for future reference. A. E.
