This Week
With Macon
County Agents
By MRS. FORENCE 8. SHERR1LL
(COuaty Home Agent)
Mrs. Ralph Bradley, county
health leader of the 24 home
demonstration club*, has set the
good example In her own com
munity of Oak Grove of what
can be done in a health project.
Mrs. Bradley attended a district
health meeting two years ago
before the chest X-ray mobile
unit came to Macon County. She
returned to her community and
with the help of the club members
divided Oak Grove into sections
so that every family was con
tacted about the free X-ray. As
a result, all members of Oak Grove
Club came to the mobile unit and
JOHNNY MILLER, popular radio star of WTOB soys, "My wifo
has always used light Karo for cooking . . . and on the table ? it's
dork Karo for me, the best-tasting
eating syrup of 'em all"
Yes, indeed... biscuits go like hot cakes when
you pour on plenty of delicious dark Karo .
there's nothing like it for good eating. Satia
fyin' flavor. So rich it stands right up on top
of biscuits (keeps 'em light and fluffy). Keep
Karo on your table morning, noon and night
... it tope anything!
Ask your grocer for DARK Karo, in pint and quart bottles
the club members believe that at
least 90 per cent of the adults
In the community also had the
X-ray. The Oak Grove women
not only contacted their neigh
bors. they offered transportation
If It was needed. Mrs. Bradley
was glad to work with the local
public health nurse, Mrs. Mae
Shope, In planning a demonstra
tion, "Your Health." for the
month of April.* Mrs. Shope re
quested the film, "You Can Help",
to be shown to over 500 club
women. The film told the story
of the National Tuberculosis As
sociation and what has been done
through the years to bring the
white plague from first place as
a killer to fourth place along with
other communicable diseases.
Rural women believe that pre
ventive medicine Is the best medi
cine and that is the reason that
Macon County has the record of
many adults going to the Cancer
Detection Clinic at Sylva. The
women tell their neighbors that
the clinic is located in the base
ment of the C. J. Harris Hospital;
that it is open each Friday from
9 to 10:15 for registration; that
the examination Is free; and that
every woman over 35 should be
screened in the clinic.
"Man Alive" is a 10-mlnute
film the club women have seen
lng with fear and what a simple
fear can do in a person's life.
Homemakers realize that beautiful
homes, modern conveniences, edu
cation and other facullties are an
enjoyment of life, but are of little
value to people unless they are
well. 80 they are using all avail
able health resources. When the
chest X-ray mobile unit comes to
Macon County It will be the con
cern of the homemakers to be
their "Brother's Keepers" in en
couraging every adult in Macon
County to come for the X-ray. All
through the year, and not just
through April, when the funds are
being raised by the American.
Cancer Society, the women are
saying, "Have you been for your
examination at the detection
clinic?" "Don't be fearful, but be
careful" is a good slogan for
any day in the year, for any
family member.

HOTTEST-SELLING BUICK IN HISTORY
No wonder you see so many '55 Buicks on the high
ways ? they're rolling up bigger sales than ever before
in history? topping the popularity that has already made
Buick one of the "Big Three" of America's best sellers.

Unless we miss our guess, a lot of sur
prised people are going to do some new
back-of-an-envelope arithmetic when they
see the Buick price shown here.
Because we know that many folks still don't
realize how little a Buick really costs? that
the dollar difference between this big Buick
Special and the leading smaller cars has
virtually disappeared.
Buick Salog Are Soaring A? Never Belore
But more and more of them are finding it
out. And that's a major reason why Buick
production and Buick sales are soaring to
all-time highs today? and why Buick again
is outselling all other cars, regardless of
price range, except two of the well-known
smaller cars.
Big reason, too, for this soaring popularity
is Buick's full line of automobiles, giving you
a choice in any price class? the rock-bottom
priced Special, the high-powered Century,
the supremely spacious Super, and the
custom-built Roadmaster.
But above all, more and more people are
discovering that the price you pay for a
Buick buys more sheer automobile than the
same money buys elsewhere.
More advanced styling, more deep-down
comfort, more pure power thrill, more ride
steadiness and handling ease and solidity
of structure.
More spectacular performance, too, from
the modest extra cost of Buick's automatic
transmission.
For here you get Variable Pitch Dynaflowf
?the new wonder drive born of modern
aeronautics to give you instant full-power
getaway and acceleration when needed? and
far better gas mileage when cruising.
Why not come see us this week, for sure?
We'll be happy to have you test-pilot a new
Buick, just for the sheer thrill of it? and show
you quite clearly that if you can afford any
new car, you can afford a Buick.
fDynaflow Drive is standard on Road master, optional at extra cost
on other Series.

Everyone will agree that color I
adds its own magic to almost any i

When you are color-shooting <
with ? box-type camera, you'll
want to be more careful than
usual about the sunniness of the

quality is obtained outdoors in
bright or hazy sunlight, with
shadows kept soft yet full of de

Your beat effect will come from
loft lighting ? behind you and full

strong contrasts of light and
shade that make for deep harsh
shadows. Let the contrasts of
color take the place of contrast
ing light and shade, and look for
simple backgrounds, preferably in
cool colors like blue and green.
Abo, remember that your best
time for shooting is after the sun
has been up for several hours or
in the mid-afternoon about two
hours before sunset
With these few words to the
