WAKEFIELD NEWS Well, I hope the rush will soon be over, and maybe we can be still and know we have a God reigning over us and giving courage and strength to press forward to the high calling. If we would only realize that we can stand in his struggle and his alone, I feel sure we would call on him more often, and go to the house of worship more frequently to serve him. I think our adults are afraid of polio, too. We had only 35 at Sunday School last Sunday. I don’t know what would become of the church and Sunday School if it weren’t for the children. I do hope and pray it won’t be much flowers. Personals longer before they can go again. I am sorry to say little Jimmy Hodge has had a bad case of poi son oak and had to be rushed to Raleigh Monday for treatment of blood poisoning. He is out of dan ger now. Dr. Root said his aunt Mrs. Bessie Hodge Minnus, has been nursing him at her home on 708 East Franklin St. We are hoping he can come home in a day or two. Mrs. Wilma Carroll of Raleigh spent the night with Mrs. Vera Rhodes Wednesday night. Mrs. E. W. Hood spent the night with me Monday and Tuesday. Mrs. Vera Rhodes and Mrs. Gar land Faulkner went to the cannery at Wendell Tuesday and canned grape juice and corn. Mr. Bowling said the cannery would be open only on Tuesday and Thursday p.m., 1 to 4. It’s a wonderful thing to have. I wish we had one at Wakelon. Mrs. J. A. Williams of Boone is visiting Mrs. Lida Bridges this week. Mrs. Annie Pearce visited Miss Claudie West of Louisburg last week. Mrs. D. S. Joyner and Mrs. Frank Kannon and baby visited the H. A. Hodges last Sunday. Mr. Morris Hicks had an old fashioned tobacco tying last Wed nesday night and served the crowd chicken barbecue. After all, that is a good way to get it tied. But we did ours the hard way. Uncle Bill Broughton and Jimmy Hodge and I did 1250 sticks and had it ready to sell and didn’t even have any barbecue, but we ha something about as good (green peas) and corn pone, water melon and lemonade. Mrs. T. Y. Furyear has returned from New Jersey after spending some time with Mrs. H. E. Whita ker and family. I know she had a swell time. All we Southerners enjoy going North once in a while. Lester Adcock, is it hot up there in Connecticut? We have a 103 here in the shade, and I went barefooted to kepe from ruining my Shenanigans. The last time I was up there I ruined a white pair with the melted tar and as phalt and had to throw them away. We may see you later in the au tumn, You all come on down any time. We will be glad to have you all. We can sleep on the lawn if it’s too hot in the house. Birthdays seem to be a regular thing during August but I rather be an August Bird than a July Fly. Shirley Faulkner had one last Tuesday, the 31st. Uncle Bill Broughton had one Monday, the 30th. With a birthday supper at Mrs. Vera Rhodes and the H. A. Modges, Mrs. E. W. Hood was there also. I am not through yet. I am going to celebrate mine again tonight at a barbecue supper given by the Zebulon Record at the Legion Hut. I celebrate mine all through the month every time I get a chance. Little Wayne Price is much im proved. I am glad to know the Lord has answered our Prayers in his behalf. The Doctor says he may start to school again. I am really proud of the many cards and letters and little gifts of mon ey and toys that were sent to him. It did a lot of good. I thank you, one and all. for doing it for him. Our sympathy goes out to Pat Pearce and family in their be rievement. There will be Sunday School at the regular time, 10:00 a.m., next Sunday. Be on hand. We need you all. We sympathize with the Preston Smith in the loss of their favorite pet Spitz last Wednesday in a hospital in Raleigh. He had dog polio. We all love our pets, so let it be a Spitz or Hound, you better quit kicking my dog around. Bye now. —Mrs. Vera Rhodes. The Zebulon Record Little River Leads In Insuring Crops Little Rive A led all other town ships in Wake County in per centage of crop insurance con tracts for tobacco, announced John Houghton Ihrie, Jr., who serves as loss adjuster for the insurance program. An interesting sidelight, he said, is that a father and his son were the first in the township to pay in full. They are John Pulley and his son, Joe.
