(Eh# iuiiuluit ißurarli VOLUME XIII ♦+*++++++❖+++<•❖+++++++*+ £ This, That And f | The Other. J * MRS. THEO. 15. DAVIS | Z I am ail tangled up in what I us ually call my mind, and can’t seem to add up all the arguments and find the right answer. Much as I i hate tt be a thrower of cold water or a sjnotherer in wet blankets, the time has come when I am almost forced to the conclusion that the whole thing is too much for me. Dm talking aoout joining things Not l..fc church, but other organi zation.-. And not merely social club.-, but the Parent-Teacher Asso ciation. the Woman’s Club and its departments, the Daughters of the Confederacy, the Eastern Star, the Rebekans—or Rachels, or whatev er they are—and so on and on and on. They are all good, worth more or less to the individual according to age. preference and other things. Let's begin with the church—as I believe everyone should. Teach a class in Sunday school or attend regularly; go at least once a month to Workers Council or Teachers Meeting; average at least six preaching services a month (four at your own church and the morn ing services at another on the oth er two Sundays if you belong to a half-time church); go. to prayer meeting at least once in a while; attend a class meeting occasionally; go to the missionary society and circle; that is enough to take a woman away from her home fairly often. But sihe needs contacts and ideas not to be had from these meetings, important as they are. All right. Take one meeting a month at which she may study some phase of housekeeping, or as we put it now, bomemaking. Also one meeting to study literature, and one general meeting of a club at which some other practical or cultural program is put on. Include one P. T. A. meet ing. which all should attend who have children in school or who can find time to go, and don’t forget to count the P. T. A. study class, at which you may learn how to solve some of your problems in bringing up your youngsters. Add all these and what do you get? Tired! If we didn't have to change our dresee- to go to things it wouldn’t take quite so much time. And we have to find some one to look after the children while we go out to try to learn how to raise ’em right; and at times on coming home, we find things in such a mess we forget our newly-acquired knowledge and fall back on our old ways, of hurrying and worrying. It may be that the mothers who most need the programs we ai range on family problems are too busy to attend the meetings. Pity knows I never could ha/ve them all in when my children were small. And my husband was extra good about let ting them hang around where he was working or I couldn’t have done as much going as I did. We who plan meetings ought to be sure we have something that will repay a busy mother for leav ing her work and her babies and having to rush back to do the night’s work. Often I’ve felt they were cheated by having to sit and listen THE FOUR COUNTY NEWSFAFEK—WAKE, JOHNSTON, NASH AND FRANKLIN ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER SIXTH, 1936 Church Column Regular preaching services will be held at the Mehodist church here next Sunday morning and evening at 11:00 and 7:30. The last session of the quarterly conference will be held on Wednes day nignt of next week, Nov. 11th, in the Zebulon church.

Wreck in Zebulon > | On last Saturday a car in which were Negroes returning from Wil son ran from the highway against ( a tree, ramming the /engine back | against the front seat. Two men, ( Media Moore of near Zebulon and . Tom Williams of Raleigh, were so ’ badly injured that they died soon . after being rushed to the hospital. ' The driver, Paul Dunn, is being held. A fourth occupant of the car, who said he was a hith-hiker, was . unhurt and ran from the s«cene of the accident as rapidly as possible. There is a variation in stories ’ told about the accident. One says a passing car sideswiped the one driven by Dunn. Another states that I too rapid traveling on a curve was . the cause. The wreck occurred be [ yond Privette’s station near the , eastern edge of town. Germany is the world’s largest manufacturer of aluminum, sup plementing native ore with that I imported from Hungary, Italy and 1 Jugo-Slavia. ■ I to my own remarks. As stated in the beginning, it is hard to know just what should be done about it. To go or not to go. i that is the question. Whether ’twere better to leave our duties in oroer to study about them, or to stay at home and try to work out our own salvation. And each must de cide for herself —or let her husband do the deciding for her. Public Character Representing the law of county and state in our midst is the subject of this weeks Public Character.

Local Returns Election Day passed off quietly in this precinct. With G. C. Massey canting the first vote there was balloting until late in the afternoon with the usual rush of late comers. A partial digest of the votes cast shows that 907 were cast for Roosevelt and 37 for Landon. Little River did its part for a continuance of the national New Deal. Harold Cooley received 901 votes, the highest number cast for any state candidate for office, his op ponent, Ferree, getting 28, the low est number recorded. J. W. Bailey received 847 votes to his oppon ent’s 43. Hoey had nearly six times the vote of Grissom with 777 to 131. For lieutenant governor Horton had 837 votes, and the Republican candidate had 51.
