District Conference Temperance Report The following report of the com mittee on temperance was adopted at' the recent meeting of the Waynesville distribt conference held at Long's Chapel, Lake Jun- aluska : , ' Temperance Report "Your committee on temperance deplores the .necessity' of. fighting over again the battles of a genera tion ago, . but realizes that this crisis is upon ius today as the, di rect result of the complacency Uncle Jim Satjs ppW fig ft ; -mmm ,i9. Strip-cropping, contour planting, check dams, and terraces may sound high falutin' to some folks, "but they keep soil where it belongs. that came over us when the I8th Amendment was adopted. Instead of making the end , of an era it was actually the beginning of a period in which the churches jest ed while the wets worked. "As parents and church leaders we have mainly ourselves to blame for the present condition. Alcohol has ever tempted the race of men, and will be considered by each succeeding generation for ever. The great task of the present church, therefore, is to instruct the rising generation regarding the scientific nature of alcohol, its poisonous ef fect On-the hprnan body, its fearful havoc of death on our highways, its demoralization of society, and its soul-benumbing power. "In regard to the sale of liquort your committee believes no wrong thing can be made right even by law. Methodists, in common with all truly Christian people, have ever disapproved of both the con sumption and sale of alcohol on'thej ground that whatever hurts man is a sin against God. "We recommend: "That our preachers cry aloud from their pulpits, our church school officers and teachers search out and bring into the open the truth about alcohol and the fallacy that liquor stores help temperance. (Facts regarding the bad condi tions that have followed the open ing of A. B. C. store in our state are available from the office of the United Dry Forces, Raleigh, N. C.) "We recommend further: "Thtt our Christian citizens be come active, in supporting the en forcement of the law. That this conference now record its distinct disapproval of the legalization of the sale of liquor within its borders. "It is the feeling -of your com mittee that a liquor store Jn a community will be simply one more place to get liquor, that it will immediately increase the number of adult drinkers by making it appear respectable; that it will serve as a blind for bootlegging instead of decreasing it; that the liquor store, having to pay. several profits and a heavy tax, cannot compete with the bootlegger; that the open display of attractive pack ages in legalized and therefore so called , respectable places with the formal endorsement of the citizenry of the community will tend to make the rising generation a drink ing generation. "That the modern, idea that al cohol can be 'used and not abused' is utter fallacy, and there is no safe,, practicable attitude toward this great enemy of the race ex cept total abstenance. D. E. Camak R. D. Coleman G. A. Hovis." Demand for Anti-Rabies Vaccine Decreasing RALEIGH. From now until 19-40, or 1941, there shouln be a gradual decline in the prevalence of rabies; then will begin the climb toward another "peak," it., was pointed out here today by Dr. John H. Hamil ton, director of the division of laboratories of the North Carolina state board of health. ' r There has foeen a steady decrease in the demand for anti-rabies vac cine in this state since the latter part of 1935, Dr. Hamilton saidrfc "Rabies," he continued, "comes iie t j: - epidemic waves, jusi iikc oiner eases, and in North Carolina takes ten and a half years to cm plete the cycle, that is, it is Mat length of time between each 'ieak' or each 'low.' In New York (City it takes IS years. This is du to the fact that, while there -' a much greater density of popoltion in New York than in North Caro lina, there are fewer dog! in pro portion to the human population. "But," he warned, "there should be no let-up in precautions against rabies, the disease will soon become apparent and the dog will become ill and die If it shows , signs of rabies, there will still be time for the patient to take the Pasteur treatment, unless, of course, the bites are about the head. In that case, no. time should be lost. But if the dog shows no signs of rabies, the person bitten may be saved a lot of trouble, pain and even dang er, for there is always an element of danger about taking the Pasteur treatment." Vigorous Bee Colony Produces Much Honey A strong, 'vigorous bee colony that has plenty of bees" in the spring will be in good condition to gather a great deal of honey this season. C. L. Sams, extension apiarist at State college, urges all beekeepers to check ' their colonies to see if they have enough food, a good laying queen, and are free from disease. If the food supply is less than 15 to 20 pounds of honey, a colony should be fed 15 to 20 pounds of sugar syrup. When food is low, brood-rearing falls off and the col ony will not have sufficient bees to gather . honey. If the colony is queenless, or if its queen is "old and failing, the colony should be united with an other having a vigorous, healthy queen. Or the apiarist may pro vide a new queen. "If "any dead brood is found, samples of comb two or three inches square, containing as much dead brood as possible, should be sent to the bee culture laboratory, Bureau of Entomology, U. S.v De partment of Agriculture, Washing ton, I). C. If the Jaboratory finds the'trouble is European foul brood, yoiing vig orous .Italian queens should be in troduced ihtp the colony at once. Eggs from Italian queens are re sistant to this disease. But if the disease is American foul brood, the colonies affected should be burned at once to keep the disease from spreading, Sams pointed out. Be.es in modern hives will pro-, duce far more honey than those in old 'box or gum hives, he added.
