That warden made our Elmer wish
That he had never seen those fish.
He erred, *tis true, and it’s a fact
The law he broke—or badly crack

He watches from behind a tree
And thinks, ‘‘What will they do to
me?”
To mind game laws henceforth
he’ll try.
No license do you need to buy.

THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, MAY 6,1938
cooperating in the Purol-Pep Safe
ty Crusade.
A total of 125,000 of the attrac
tive metal emblems have already
been distributed in the Carolinas,
and the demand still continues. In
the four states of Georgia, Tennes
see, North Carolina and South
I Carolina, nearly a quarter of a mil
lion of these safety emblems have
been distributed. The demand for
them was so great that at times
during April the supply at some
stations was temporarily exhaust
ed.
To get an emblem, the motorist
signs a pledge to drive his automo
bile in accordance with common
sense rules of highway safety. lie
is then eligible for a series of
monthly safety contests, in which
SI,OOO is being given away each
month to promote safety-minded
ness.
Prize winners in the April con
test are expected to be announced
within a few days. Seventy-five
persons will be awarded cash sums
ranging from $250 to $5. A new
safety contest was launched May
1, and motorists of this community
are invited to take part. A flood
of entries was received in the April
contest.
A large percentage of motorists
in this section have signed the
pledge to drive safely, and new
names are being added to the list
of Safety Crusaders every day.
The Drive Safely Crusade, the most
extensive safe-driving campaign
ever launched in this state, was
begun April 1 as a public-spirited
movement to do something about
the terrible toll of deaths and in
juries on the highways and streets.
Police traffic squads in various
cities have not only endorsed the
Crusade, but in many cases, have
signed up 100 per cent.
SPEND AND DESTROY
And now comes the proposal
from an automobile manufacturer
for the government to spend SIOO,-
000,000 buying up and scrapping
1,000,000 old sauthomobiles, on the
theory that the automobile industry
employs one out of seven persons,
directly or indirectly.
The idea is no different than
paying farmers for not raising
crops, plowing under cotton, des-

FOR MOTHER’S DAY
WE WANT YOU TO
TRY A SLICE OF HAM
whose flavor is particularly dif
ferent. You will wonder why you
have not become acquainted with
it sooner. And after the members
of your family have expressed
their appetite gratification you’re
quite apt to buy a whole ham. Re
member—it’s the ham that’s dif
ferent.
Nothing beats boiled ham for a
Mother’s Day dinner. It can be
made ready on Saturday, leaving
that much more time for the fami
ly reunion on Sunday.

UNION VOTED
At their annual conference in
Birmingham, Ala., last week South
ern Methodists voted by a sizable
majority to unite with the North
ern branch of their denomination.
Dissenters, however, felt so strong
ly upon the matter that they speak
of withdrawing from the church;
and they have caused the question
of legality of the voting to be
brought up. A final decision has
not been reached. The Methodist
Episcopals divided upon the ques
tion of slavery some years before
the war between the states.
