Rhythm Band For Playground Mrs. Hunter Bell is at work get. ting ready for a rhythm band of playground children. They are mak ing their own instruments. Anoth er playground project is a puppet show which is to be staged in the future, the date to be announced later. Parents and all others inter ested are to be invited to this, and it is certain to be enjoyable. Watch for the date. Heat Continues The heat wave shows small sign of abating. For three weeks now temperatures have been above nor mal. Monday was the hottest day j to that date, with official recording of 96 degrees in Raleigh. Slight breezes offer scant alleviation from the parching air. Hot weather brings a crop of theorists who offer panaceas, or • aids to comfort. One is told to wear • more clothing or less, or none; to ; eat more salt in order that “body , balance” may be restored; to drink I iced water; not to touch iced water; . to eat only cold foods, to have at ■ least one hot dish at every meal. , There are enough folks and enough hot weather for them all to be tried , out. Tuesday helped make a record S for extended hot spells and also , made its own record as the hottest day of this summer with tempera ■ ture of 98 at four o’clock in the afternoon. Tuesday night was un rivaled for discomfort with the merest hint of a breze at intervals. Wednesday’s record is not yet made, but there is little promise of coolness. Getting More Quota Poundage You may have a neighbor who will have some poundage left on his marketing card after he has sold all his leaf. You can buy his sur plus for whatever price you both agree upon. Or you can get your county office or warehouse men to get the card for you. When you deal through them ,the price you pay the other grower for his sur plus quota will be five cents a pound. If you have tobacco worth more than 10 cents a pound, it will pay you to buy extra quota pound age at the price fixed by the AAA. will do the preaching. The Philathea Class of the Bap tist S. S. with husbands of the members and other teachers and friends enjoyed a picnic supper at Tarpley’s Mill on Tuesday evening • fthis week. NUMBER SIX MWMMUIMM—• A misprint from the Niles (Ohio) Daily Times is presented you with the hope that after reading it you will overlook the many mistakes of this tabloid. It’s quoted below: “Dr. C. W. D.—will take part in the se-ivces when the Memorial Church is dedicated on Sunday. Morning, afternoon, and evening services will be hell.” From slumber school comes this gag. A professor was preparing his class for a quiz. After several hours of reviewing he asked: ‘‘The ex aminations are now in the hands of the printer. Are there any ques tions?” From the hack of the class a sleepy-eyed boy spoke up: “Who’s the printer, professor? - ’ When a small local boy applied for a job at one of the stores, the manager decided to find out if the boy was serious minded. “My boy,” he asked, “what would you do if you had a million dollars?” “Ah, gee,” stammered the boy, “I don’t i know. I wasn’t expecting that much at the beginning.” A father recently was surprised ’ to hear his boy spinning a false | hood. He walked up to the boy and on the way to the woodshed said to . him, “My boy, when I was your age I didn't tell fibs.” “Gosh, father,” the boy said, ,‘how old were you ( when you started?” r Zebulon women support three beauty salons. From the amount of of trade they get and the different women that patronize the shoppes 1 I would say that the upkeep of a I pretty face is about as much as that of a homely one. Our barn-yard phillossifer says that an optimist is one that says radio programs 'will get better. But I will honestly be glad to see the time when we all own television sets that will enable longwinded an nouncers to see us turn the dial from his program. A young woman who went to Columbia University to take her degree of doctor of philosophy mar. ried her professor in the middle of the second year. When she an nounced her engagement one of her friends -said: .‘‘But, -Margaret, ..I thought you came up here to get your Ph.D.” “So I did,” agreed Mar garet, “but I had no idea I would get him so soon.” An immigrant was asked on her examination who made and chang ed the laws in a republic. She an swered: “The Democrats.” She was given 100% on that one. If we were to change the Pledge to the United States flag It would probably read thus: “I pledge al legiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Re publican for which it stands, one nation, invisible, with liberty and judges for all.” Sincerely, The Swashbuckler.
