Page Six MRS. THEO B. DAVIS: This, That & the Other (Continued from Page 2) ing to be harder than usual to cast a vote this time, because there are so many more names on the lists. This is one campaign in which only writers in readers’ forums go ecstatic, except when urging that voters stand by the party, which ever that may be. Os to a busy housewife, having to vote may be an unwel come task; but it is a duty, and we might as well do our best at it. It was a surprise to me to real ize that a generation has grown up not knowing the Hoover cart. It seems so short a while since we saw so many of these hybrid ve hicles being drawn along our Mrs. Vera B. Rhodes Tells Readers About President's Visit to Raleigh Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Whitaker and daughter left for home Mon day after a two weeks stay with Mrs. E. W. Hood visiting relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Hood gave a barbecue supper Saturday night in their home. Well, if we had ordered a pretty /lay for our great President to come to the Capital City we couldn’t have gotten a better one. It was perfect and I think all en joyed it very much. The only thing I regret is I didn’t get close enough to shake hands. I guess I will make a trip up there to the White House and do that very thing soon. Raleigh wasn’t cloudy and neither was t “Dewey” Tues day. It was a perfect day. Everyone seems to be one the well list but our friend, Lloyd Eddins. We are very sorry to learn at the last moment that little Wayne Price is worse and had to be rush- j ed to Duke Hospital for treatment.!

I’ve always felt the name was unjust to him; but I do think Hoover is a good man to be on that special committee that has been appointed to study the high cost of living and try to find ways to low er it. We surely had to live on little when he was president. Now is the time to determine whether you will try to carry through the winter all your pot plants, that may have outgrown their quarters during summer; or whether you will root cuttings and let the old plants take what comes. It takes both time and strength to lift and carry in and out a number of plants and the dirt they live in; but some of us find them worth all they cost us. and some bad head spells, too, so his father said at noon Wednesday. He has been going to school and getting on so well. We are sorry to hear he has a backset. We pray he will soon be better. We are also sorry to hear of the accident of little Harold Draughn. The other day he and some other boys were playing with an air rifle and he was shot in the eye. It is feared he will lose the sight of both. I understand he is in Mary Elizabeth Hospital. We hope it won’t be that bad. Be careful, boys, don’t be shooting at each other. You see what a bad thing can happen to you. I want to ask the prayers of all the people to pray for the re covery of Lloyd Eddins, the son of the late Herry and Effie Eddins and a grandson of our beloved Mrs. Nora Eddins, who passed on a few months ago. He is in Duke Hospital now critically ill and as you read this, pause for a moment in silent prayer for his recovery, if it be the Lord’s will. A friend, Vera Rhodes.

Several times in the last few weeks I have been asked for my opinion of church auctions. I don’t want to force it upon anyone, so you do not have to read this para graph. I see no harm whatever in of fering for sale at the regular price range any article that is giv en for church expenses or bene volences. Often this is a means of contributing that is easier than any other. But I do believe that run- Elite Beauty Salon Mrs. Frank Kemp, Owner Miss Susan Stallings, Manager Telephone 4641 Zebulon W. M.

If the officials call ’em and play too what kind of a game is that? You wouldn't stand for that sort of thing on a football field but it happens every day in the electric light and power business. Government not only regulates the electric companies but is in competition with them at the same time! The catch is that government sets up two different sets of rules. Government electric agencies pay little or no interest on bor rowed money, and pay no Federal taxes— but electric companies do, and expect to. When govemment-in-the-power-business can’t make ends meet—it gets a handout of tax money from the U. S. Treasury. Who foots the bill? American taxpayers—of which you are one.

In sixty-odd years, the self-supporting electric companies have built for America the most and the best electric service in the world. While costs of everything else are way up (including the costs of making and delivering electricity) electric service is still the best bargain in the American family’s budget... it does so much, and costs so little. This is a good record for the thousands of people who work in power companies, and for the millions of people who invest savings in them. Don’t you think these men tnd women deserve a fair break? The answer is yours to make, for govern ment money is your money. Friday, October 22, 1948
