@ll|£ j£rbalott WLvtovft Volume XV. This, That and The Other Bij MRS. THEO. B. DAVIS It is pleasant to watch since school has closed and see the small sons who come with their fathers to town. Sometimes a father is in a hurry and pays scant attention to the child. At such times the son is also grave and earnest, stepping purposefully with strides as long as he can manage, never pausing to look into store windows. Other small boys seem to have come with an idea of fun, and skip along joyfully, either licking a cream cone or evidently with one in the backs of their minds. But they, too, keep an eye on the parent and don't get far away from him. And almost without exception they are very clean, barefoot and overalled. The fathers don’t al ways look as proud of the youngs ters as I feel, though half the time I may not know who they are. To me nothing on earth is more fasci nating than a little boy. We are told that only half as much tea as usual is to be had here this summer. Don’t let that wor ry you too much. You can make a good substitute by drying rasp berry leaves. The young, tender leaves are best, of course, but any will surprise you, if you have nev er tried tea made from them. Dry the leaves in the shade, first wash ing them free of grit or dust, and put your “tea - ’ away in cereal boxes till wanted. It is a sad commentary on our nation, or on human nature to note how, even in the midst of war’s alarms, we fuss and fume among ourselves. We are, as Josephus Daniels put it, apparently more willing to give up our sons than to give up the things we have come to think necessary to our well-being. Some of us have the attitude that life without plenty of gas and plenty of sugar is hard ly worth having. Personally, since the time when they killed little pigs and plowed under third rows of crops, noth- j ing governmental has amazed me.! That fantastic performance still rankles in my mind, and often cre ates a doubt of the wisdom of sub (Continued on Page Six) u \\ lien clouds ore seen i< ise men put on their cloaks"—Shakrsfreare F*7Y 21—1,600,009 acres of North M~'- -f Dakota land opened to settlers, 1891. ,y> 22 Trial of Aaron Burr be- 'iKs gan on charge of trea eon, 1807. . 23—Advance Nazi division c/r/df reached Boulogne, IVlcOi France, 1940. 24— 33 rescued, 26 lost in sub *■ *' - ,TT marine Squalus disaster, 1939 - gijft'LilA 25—34th Eucharistic Con- JCTOvv ft gress.

Corrigedor has now fallen. Gas Cards Open io Insoection A It is stated that gas ration cards will be open to inspection by the public. That means those who have X cards are liable to have those doubting the rating making investigations and asking for proof. Amounts of gasoline available may seem too small for necessary traveling; but there’s little can be done about it. Governor Broughton has several time declared there is discrimination i gainst this state, but nothing has been done defi nitely to relieve it. Ant any rate tires standing still don’t Wear out as fast as tires run ning over the highways. Sugarless Cake For Local Cooks The recipe given below was re quested by a reader to help with the sugar rationing situation. Cambridge Gingerbread 1- cup shortening 2- cup boiling water 1 cup molasses 1 egg, well-beaten 2 3-4 cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons Rumford baking powder 1 teaspoon soda 1-2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon ginger 1-4 teaspoon ground cloves Melt shortening in hot water. Add molasses and well beaten egg. Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt and spices. Stir into first mixture, blending well. Bake i in a greased shallow square pan in a moderate oven (350deg.F.) 35 to 40 minutes. Self-rising flour may be used in this instead of plain; in which 1 case omit baking powder called for. Fair Weather Many were glad to see Monday clear and hot. The rains of last week brought splendid seasons for setting and replanting tobacco; but they also made grass grow at a discouraging rate in fields where crops are planted. Chopping is now the order of the day. Wakefield Club The May meeting of the Home Demonstration Club will be held Wednesday afternoon, May 27. Mrs. Mclnnes will be present and will speak on “The Staff of Life.” | | Piano Students Do Good Work On Monday, May 18, Miss Joc elyn House took eighteen of her pupils to Raleigh to play in the audtitions sponsored by the Na tional Guild of Piano Teachers, of which Miss House is a mem ber. This was not a contest, in that the pupils were not compet ing aginst any other pupils, but each received a rating. Those who will receive certificates “With Honor” are ClydA Morris, Hilda Morris, A. V. Meal in, Jr., Charles Horton, Rachel Bunn, Betty Jean Gay, Mary Alice Jones and Melba Duke, of Zebulon; and Luella Nowell, Bootsy Renfro, and Bar bara Ledford of Wendell. Those who will receive certifi cates “With High Honor” are Laura James Sexton, Mary Sue Long, Fay Privett, and Dorothy Mizelle of Zebulon; and Flora Ann Nowell, Helen Leppard and Hor tense Bridgers of Wendell. There were no failures or “just passing grades. Methodist Church Services for Sunday: Church school—10:00 Church service—ll:oo Sermon topic: “Purpose for Liv ing” Young people—7:4s. We had fourteen present for the young people’s service last Sun day night. All of our young peo ple are invited to attend. We have some fine Christian souls in our church. The way they try to make strangers feel at home and speak to all the people present is very noticeable and highly commendable. If we had more of this spirit in the 1 church, we could really accom plish great things. Our Vacation Church school will begin Monday morning ,May 25, at 9:00 o’clock. We hope that all the children and young people of our church will attend. Par ents and teachers are urged to give their full cooperation to the end that we may have the very best Vacation School. - „ Baptist Church Services for Sunday, May 24: 9:4s—Sunday School 11:00—Morning Worship.

Rotariams To Be At Conference The Rotary continues to hold 100% meetings. Bob Sawyer spoke five minutes on member who had made best records without missing. Dur ward Chamblee led with Vance Brown rnd Vaden Whitly running 2nd and 3rd. Vaden Whitley had the pro gram, his subject being a jack of all trades. Vaden said we think •of a Jack as being something pow erful and trade as one’s vocation, so Jack of your trade means master of your profession. Vaden made an interesting talk, inspiring one to be a master of his vo cation if he wishes to succeed. Mallie Todd and Bob Nowell of Wendell Rotary Club were wel ! come visitors. There will not be a meeting of the club this week in Zebulon as members will attend the state meeting in Raleigh. Mrs. H. B. Phillips Dies on May 14 Mrs. H. B.
