E. GARDNER I am again giving instruc tions for the preparation of a compost pile because it has so many uses and is the best and cheapest source of organic mat ter, if properly prepared. Another reason for repeating is due to the fact that leaves continue to accumulate, and, in the city, are piled in the streets end clog the storm drains be fore they are picked up. While many materials cah be used, 1 am going to be practical about it so that whether or not you live in the city or the coun try, you can have a good com post pile for mulching, potting plants, renewing bad spots in the lawn and incorporating with soil in your garden, border or flower bed. We will use lea ves, old sawdust, 8-8-8 fertilizer and dolomitic limestone.

Now convalescing in a rest home, he is much improved. • * « In prayer meeting the other night Rev. Calvin Rains was ex plaining a concept of Freud— saying the mind has three levels. Ip the top layer are all the good motivations which make peo ple behave in an acceptable man ner. The lower level contains all the primitive instincts urging us to do and think all kinds of evil things. But the middle layer of the mind acts as a guardian angel, g holding back the bad things trying to escape to the up per level. During sleep some thing like a trapdoor opens from the lower level which lets some of the bad things escape—hence bad dreams appear in which we do things we wouldn't dare do in real life. As a result of the talk I believe I’ve discovered what’s wrong with me: my trapdoor broke years ago. * * * Among those attending the UNC-USC football game last Sat urday at Columbia were Mr. and Mrs. C.

When finished, the heap should be 4 or 5 feet high, about 6 to 8 feet wide and any length. It is best to coniine the sides if you can. This can be done with rough boards. If you have wall space, you could use a corner with walls on two sides and build other walls to contain the heap. A corner in a wire fence could also be used. Start the bottom layer with about four inches of old saw dust. On this layer apply three pounds of 8-8-8 fertilizer per 100 square feet of area, and a liberal sprinkling of dolomitic limestone. If the sawdust is moist, wetting will not be neces sary. If it is dry, sprinkle with water until wet. Next, add leaves so that the layer will be about one foot deep when packed down with the feet. Add the same amounts of 8-8-8 and limestone to this lay er and sprinkle thoroughly with water. Continue to add layer on lay er, as above, until the pile is as high as earlier suggested. The top layer should be of leaves so that rain water will be readi ly absorbed. Clean grain straw or old hay could also be used for the top layer. It is highly desirable that the pile be turned after it has set tled for one or two months. This will aerate the entire heap and promote more rapid bacterial action for complete decomposi tion of the sawdust and leaves. If these instructions are fol lowed, you should have a good, rich source of organic material in 6 or 8 months. Let the pile de compose thoroughly before us ing.

Gordon Cleveland, County Commissioner; Howscd Thomp son, Superintendent of Schools; and Joe Augustine, Executive Secretary at the Chapel Hill Mer chants Association, spoke for the benefit of new residents, giving less well-known facts about Chapel Hill, notably about its taxes, its schools, mid its serv ices. Mrs. Robert H. Wettach, of the League, introduced the speakers and various city of ficials present, and directed ques tions and discussion which fol lowed the talks. Mr. Cleveland’s talk on tax es came back repeatedly to the problem of financing the school system, though it covered all important county and city taxes, from dog taxes to recorders fees. Ironically enough, out-of town visitors to footoall games and other events indirectly con tribute substantial sums to the local school system, since the ABC stores of the county sup ply revenue equivalent to twai ty cents on the county tax dol lar and in fact raise enough money each year to build a to tally new school building. Mr. Thompson described the struggles of the past several years to keep the school build ing program abreast ol the in creases in population, and with more recent attempts of the school system to meet the needs of the community and county for more effective vocational train ing. He painted a relatively cheerful picture of the current situation building capacity is adequate today for the first time in many years and end ed with a plea for the continu ance of the special school tax. Mr. Augustine spoke with hu mor and insight about the com munity in general in particu lar stout its three important “industries,” Retirement, Youth, and Education. He refer red to the town as a place which is “unique, if not utopian,” and which, because of its peculiar atmosphere, at once lively and relaxed, continues to draw numbers of the more vital and active of the “young retired” as well as the many young peo ple whose company they find VaA3ty.
