Ul In' Zrlutlnn ißmtrit VOLUME XIII 1 This, That And I The Other H Mrs. Theo. D. Davis I When my husband told me last Friday afternoon that he had prom ised Howard Bunn we would at tend the P. T. A. where Howard and his wife teach and take part on the program—that night—and that he had just forgotten to men tion it to me, I declared I’d not try to make any talk on such a short notice. But my better half in sisted, and I know only too well what it means to have a program blow up in your hands, so I tried as I worked to line up a few of my ideas about small schools— for I knew Howard and his wife had taught for years in a two teacher school in Nash county, and I have some happy memories of just such work. They came for us and we had a pleasant ride to the school house. But it was no two-teacher school. Instead, it was a beautiful new building with electric lights, steam heat and water system, housing three hundred pupils who are taught by seven teachers. Ferrell’s School, about seven or eight miles from Zebulon. And there I was with what I had thought of saying so out of place that I had no more speech than on oyster and felt like a low grade moron. Yet it was funny. Howard introduced us beauti fully. While the editor read the scripture and led the devotional I was not even listening, but was doing what I could to assemble a few thoughts. However, the best thing that could be said about my talk was that it was short. I’m forever getting into fixes more or less like that. Anyway, I’m glad I saw that school and met those teachers and P. T. A. members. They were as cordial as if they had listened to something. Well, there’s one thing I can do —make a chicken pie. For testi monials I refer you to. members of the Zebulon Rotary Club, who during the last three years have eaten enough hens fixed up this way to make them pie-eyed. Take a very fat hen. In dress ing remove as much as possible of the fat that is so thick between the vent and the end of the breast bone and put it in a pan, setting it in the oven to melt slowly until small cracklings float in a yellow liquid, which should be put in a cold place until needed. Having salted the fowl lightly, cool it thoroughly, then boil, us ing a pressure cooker, if you have one, as this saves much time. When well done, cut the hen into pieces about the size of an ordinary mouthful, mixing the light and dark meat Pull off the bits from the neckbones and the upper back, use heart, liver and gizzard, re jecting all gristle and tough skin. • If, in spite of your having taken off part of the fat, there should be a thick skim of it over the water the hen boiled in, take off part of that. Too much will make the pie “slick” and greasy-tastiag You (Continued on page four) THE FOUR COUNTY NEWSPAPER—WAKE, JOHNSTON, NASH AND FRANKLIN Church Column The W.M.

ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, APRIL TENTH, 1936 Public Character Like the majority, of those whose names have appeared in this section of the paper, this week’s character needs intro duction to only a few of our readers, being already well known. And it is safe to say that he is not known for his much speaking, but for his quiet attention to his duties. Name—Julian Rupert Horton. —Native—of Knightdale, Wake County. Domestic Status— Married Mary Herndon in 1921. One daughter, Dorothy. Church Affiliation—Baptist. Profession—Drug Clerk. Came to Zebulon in 1923 to take position with Zebulon Drug Co. and has been with the company since that date. Miss Flowers Safe Her friends will be glad to know that Miss Martha Bailey Flowers, student at Brenau College in Gainnesville, Ga., is safe and un hurt. She is, perhaps, Zebulon’s closest connection with the recent tornado there. The college lost many beautiful trees on the cam pus, one of which fell on the tea room, destroying it. Lights and water lines were put out of commission and food was scarce, but the student body is thank ful to have escaped so lightly. Rooms in the college infirmary are being used for the injured from town. A member of the faculty wired Miss Flowers’ parents here im mediately after the passing of the tornado and she has written since that time. Attend Post-Grad Lectures Dr. L. M. Massey and Dr. G. S. Barbee attended the Stuart Mc- Guire series of Post-graduate lec tures which were given at the medical college of Virginia the first of this week. The McGuire lectures were given by Dr. Edward C. Rosenow, head of the division of Bacteriology of the Mayo client, Rochester Minne sota. For lack of space much of our correspondence had to be car ried over till next week. Next week’s Record will con tain at least 24 pages and 3,500 copies. Hauptmann Dies In Electric Chair All the last minute efforts of his family and counsel failing, Bruno Richard Hauptmann was electro cuted in New Jersey state prison at Trenton last Friday night. The body was taken to New York, where after simple funeral services it was cremated. Misses Irene Pitts and Velma Preslar went with the A. R. Houses to Meredith College last Sunday p. m. to hear the cantata, King David. Returning, they were supper guests in the House home. Club Column The Jr. Woman’s Club enjoyed a social at its meeting on March 9. Monoply was played and prizes were presented Miss Velma Webb and Mrs. Wallace Chamblee. The club gave to Mrs. J. G. Godwin, recent bride, a Koldnac tray. Misses Beth Kemp and Millie Winstead, hostesses, served dainty refreshments. Mrs. McMillan Addresses Club Mrs. R. L. McMillan of Raleigh addressed the local Woman’s Club on Tuesday of last week at the general meeting. Introduced by Mrs. A. S. Hinton, the speaker gave a delightful account of her recent trip to flower shows in New York, Baltimore and Wil mington, noting that in different places the emphasis changed from one phase to another. She show ed many photographs of prize winning arrangements, both of flowers and of decorated tables, stating that a present day fad is for tablecloths of plain, handspun linen. The pictures illustrated charac teristic grouping of flowers, from the close-packed bowls favored by i the French to the single spray nre -1 ferred by the Japanese. The im portance of using both open roses and buds in the same arrange ment was noted, mixed flowers and color shadings were discussed. Copper bowls were recommend ed for containers for many flow ers, as also were plain glass bowls. Gourds painted or varnished may be used most effectively for zinnias or marigolds. Perfume bowls made of flowers were hown with directions for making. Mesdames C. E. Flowers and F. D. Finch, hostesses, served in dividual pies, cream and coffee. IMPORTANT MEETING The meeting of the Parent- Teacher Association of Wakelon on Tuesday night of next week will be the last meeting of this school year. Mrs. John Broughton, presiding, requests that all chair men of committees be prepared to hand in written reports of their work for the year. These are re quired for questionaires to be fill ed out and sent to headquarters. A guest speaker will be on *he program to discuss Health. WILL GO TO GREENSBORO In the district contest last week the music department of Wakelon, under Mrs. Council Scott, made eight entries and won seven first places. This means that winners will contest in the state meets at Greensboro the latter part of this month. Merle Massey represented the school in piano playing. Winning first places were: Wakelon’s mixed chorus and boys glee club, which were admitted without trial because of previous recotrds; girisf glee club; boys quartet, Sexton Johnson, Ralph House, Jack Temple, Graham Bunn mixed quartet, Kay Kemp, Mar garet Bunn, Jack Temple, Sexton Johnson; Boy soloist, Chas Win stead; baritone soloist, Ralph House; bass soloist, Sexton John son; alto soloist, Mary Gray Pip pin. This is a notable record, even General News Storms during the past week wrought untold suffering and loss of life and property in the South. More than 450 persons have been killed by tornadoes, floods or fire resulting from the collapse of buildings. Hundreds of families have lost their homes. Gainesville, Ga., is perhaps the hardest hit of all towns, with Tu pelo, Miss., a probable second. O ther towns i n the states men tioned and in Ala., Tenn., Ark., and S. C. have had storm-loss of life and property. As is usual in such cases looting and disease follow the first ca lamity. The Red Cross and other relief agencies hastened to the Scenes of disaster and supplies have been rushed from outer sources. In North Carolina Greensboro has lost most, both in lives and property. Charlotte has had a flood which drove numerous negro fam ilies from their homes. It was caused by the rising of streams due to heavy rains and by the breaking of a lake dam. Rivers in this state, already high, are still rising. The Cape Fear and Neuse are expected to make new records. Roads are damaged and many have been closed to traffic until repairs can be made. Bridges have been swept away or foundations undermined in many instances. The eastern section of the state will not feel the full effects of recent torrential rains before the last of this week at the earliest, as it takes some days for the waters to flow that distance. Precious Documents To Be Shown Guarded night and day by a de tachments of United States soldiers and Marines some of the most pre cious documents in the archives of the United States will be on ex hibition in the Federal exhibit building at the Texas Centennial Exposition during the coming sum mer. On display in specially construct ed glass cases will be the Louisi ana Purchase Treaty of 1803, the Florida Purchase Treaty of 1819 and the joint resolution of Con gress of 1845 annexing the Repub lic of Texas to the Union. Diplo matic correspondence between the United States and the Republic of Texas and the historic report on the “Condition of Texas” made to President Andrew Jackson by Henry M. Morfit in 1836 will also be on exhibition. Moravian Service The regular annual Easter ser vice by the Moravian Church at Winston-Salem will be broadcast next Sunday morning. The pre liminary service will begin at 4:30 and will consist mainly of music. The devotional will begin at 5:00, continuing for nearly an hour. if no further honors should be won at Greensboro and the com munity is proud of the young people and of their teacher. NUMBER 40
