Franklin High
School News
On Tuesday of last week, a
group of high school and eletnen
tary students met to make plan
for a school band which they hope
to organize here. Mr., Finley led
the group in its discussion and ex
pressed the opinion that this high
school could have such a band if
it chose to do so. It was decided
that Mr. Finley should contact an
instructor to get further details
We are all hoping that the idea
will be successful for we believe
that a band is needed at our
school.
The Mountain Echo, Franklin
High School's newspaper, will
make its second appearance this
week. The staff is looking for
ward to a successful year. The
subscription price having been low
ered, the paper will reach mofe
people than in former years.
4-H Club girls and FFA boys
of our high school have returned
after visiting the State Fair at
Raleigh. The boys brought back
many blue ribbons which they had
won and are justifiably proud.
Routine is the watchword here
at FHS as after five weeks of
school we have settled : down to
the job of doing what we are
here to do learning !
The Junior Class is now engaged
in securing magazine subscriptions
from which they are to derive
profits for the treasury. These are
to be used later to pay for the
Junior-Senior Banquet, an event
for which the' Juniors and Sen
iors wait impatiently' all year. The
class is also making plans for the
Hallowe'en ' Carnival which it will
sponsor on Saturday, November 1
Farmers Mu&t Not Be
Liability In Defense
"A farmer who is forced to
spend money for milk, pork, poul
try and other products he could
produce at home is a liability in
the National Defense program,'
say. Dean I. O. Schaub, director
of the N. C. State college extension
service. "Every ounce of dairy,
poultry and other such products is
needed to feed defense forces in
Army camps and industrial centers,
and our friends who are resisting
aggression in Europe," he declared.
Dean Schaub pointed out that
the Farm Census ' showed that, in
1939, there were no cows on 98,204
of North Carolina's 280,000 farms;
no hogs .on 86,604 farms ; and no
chickens on 33,154 farms.
"That means," he asserted, "that
about one-third of our farmers
were buying milk and hog meat,
and about one-sixth were buying
eggs, or else they were doing with
out these essential health foods.
Either situation is bad.
"For instance, if they were buy
ing canoed milk they were reduc
ing the -supply available for export
to Great Britain. If they and their
children were doing without . milk,
they were undernourished and" no
nation achieves total strength un-

The Extension director .says that
North Carolina can make its bigt
gest contribution to the "Food for
Freedom" campaign by seeing that
every farm has at least one cow,
some pigs, . and a farm flock of
poultry. If we do that, we will
more than meet our goals of in
creased production sought in 1942.
The average cow in North Car
Una produces 3,900 pounds of milk
annually. Ifeach of the farms with
out a cow in 1939 . had only one in
1942, the State's milk production
would be increased about 383 mil
lion pounds. We are only asked to
increase- our milk production in
1942 about 81 million pounds over
1939."

By THE SCHOOL
Our school takes great interest
in reading the Franklin Press but
we feel that it would be more com
plete with a few items from our
school and community.
We have the best enrollment this
year in the history . of the school.
There are two hundred and twetsty-
five enrolled this term.
