Ruritans Make Plans
To Landscape Hospital
Beginning its second year as a -
civic organization in Zebulon, the
Wakelon Ruritan Club decided
Friday night at its February meet
ing to initiate a program that will
lead to the landscaping of the
Wendell-Zebuldn unit of the Wake
Memorial Hospital. The local
branch is scheduled to open on
March 26.
Decision centered on the group
gaining permission of the Hospital
Authority to set out shade trees on
the property and grounds of the
hospital and contacting the garden
clubs of the two towns to discuss
possible landscaping.
President C. V. Tart appointed
a three-member committee of J.
Rodney McNabb, T. E. Hales and
Bill Quick to work with him in
setting up a meeting with the gar
den clubs.
The Club also launched a mem
bership drive with the goal of in
creasing substantially in the near
future the present membership of
twenty.
Also agreed on during the meet
was the ordering of two Ruritan
road-side signs to put at highway
entrances into the town of Zebu
Ion.
Among various activities of the
club, major attention was focussed
during the first year on sponsoring
Cub Pacl^ 525 in Zebulon and the
supporting of a Little League team
in the 1960 summer recreation
program.

St. Eugene's Begin Lenten
Devotions Ash Wednesday
Special Lenten services at St.
Eugene’s Catholic Church began
with distribution of blessed ashes
before Ash Wednesday Mass at
7:30, February 15. According to
last Sunday’s announcements by
Pastor Robert L. Wilken, the sol
emn marking with ashes on Ash
Wednesday is meant to remind
Christians that all men must die.
“Easter,” he said, “stands as a
yearly reminder of man’s final ris
ing to eternal union with Christ.
Lent signifies man’s trek through
life to eternal life in heaven.”
According to the Catholic rites
of Ash Wednesday, the priest
traces a cross on the forehead of
adults and children, saying the
words: “Remember, man, thou art
dust; and unto dust thou shalt
return.” Ashes are made from
the palms given out on Palm Sun
day last year.
Throughout Lent the main
theme is penance for sin. St. Eu
gene’s parishioners meditate each
Friday night during the evening
service on the Passion and Death
of Christ. This devotion is called
the “Way of the Cross.”
Every Christian, according to
Catholic teaching, must renew and
relive the sufferings of Christ in
some small way in themselves.
Tha{ is why all adult Catholics are
expected to fast and to give up
‘extras’ such as sweets, smoking,
drinking, and other pleasures dur
ing the forty days of Lent.
Lenten devotions at St. Eu
gene’s in Wendell include Wednes
day evening Mass at 7:30, follow- i
ed by an hour’s discussion in the!
rectory on basic doctrines of the
Christian Faith. Way of the
Cross devotions are held Fridays
at 7:30 p.m. Morning Mass is at
7:00. Everyone is welcome.

Druggist George Morgan Heads
Heart Fund Drive In Zebulon
Governor Terry Sanford has des
ignated February “Heart Fund
Month in North Carolina,” accord
ing to George Morgan, Heart Fund
chairman for Zebulon.
In a statement issued from the !
Governor’s office, Gov.' Sanford
referred to the fact that heart di- j
sease annually causes more than;
half of all deaths in the state, and |
that “the cost in suffering to fam- 1
ilies and economic loss to the state
is incalculable.”
Because the American and North
Carolina Heart Associations sup
port heart research, including
projects at North Carolina medical
institutions; professional and pub
lic education; and community

The show is being held in con
nection with National Beauty Sa
lon Week.
All models will have hair styles
and make-up created especially for
them by Mrs. Kemp and her staff,
Mrs. James Debnam and Mrs. Ma
rie Boykin.
Mre. Kemp said there will be
three main ideas: hair styling, hair
coloring and make-up.
The slogan is “Blossom out with
a New Hair Do for Spring.’’
Mrs. Kemp said all hair color
ing products used on the models
h^ve been formulated to preserve
the texture of the hair by adding
protein-building blocks.
“To make hair coloring safe,
sure and perfect, even after the
first application,” Mrs. Kemp
said, one can actually see and feel
the lovely, lively difference. That
is why some of the most attractive
women in the world use color on
their hair.”
Intelligent and progressive
make-up tips for teenagers will be
given at the show.
“The beautifully made up face,”
Mrs. Kemp continued, “is never
cheap looking or over painted.
Only amateur smearing creates
that effect. Creating the illusion
of beauty and glamour is the main
purpose. It is our desire that from
this fashion show those of you
who attend will capture the art of
make-up. Beauty not seen is beau
ty lost. It is our desire, too, to
keep women lovely in new and
wondrous ways through the mod
ern sorcery of our beauty dis
coveries.”
Hair styles some of the models
will be wearing will be Little Girl
Look, Honey Hug, Small Head
Look, Chiffon Bang, Intrigue,
Tango and Falcon.
