Stoudemire Elected Head Of Carson's '57 Program By MBS. LEONA W. MOOBE (Community Reporter) Carson Rural Community De velopment Organization has elect ed Harry C. Stoudemlre as presi dent for 1957. Officers elected to serve with him include Weaver Hurst, vice president, Peggy Dills, junior vice president, Mrs. Mae Belle Cabe, eecretary-treasurer, and Mrs. Le ona W. Moore, reporter. The community election was held last week as a feature of < the regular November meeting. 1 The retiring president, Nelson i Waldroop, presided.

Who are they, and why? Lots of Saints, according to the Catholics. Saints to whom to pray. Saints after whom churches, colleges, and whatnot are named. Saints with relics to honor. Saints with feast days to celebrate. Saints with pictures, statues, medals and the like. , What nonsense! Lots of heroes in America history. Heroes to emulate. Heroes after whom we name our states, cities, towns and public build- ' lngs. Heroes with birthdays to celebrate. Heroes with pictures, statues, U. S. stamps and currency to commemorate their deeds. < Is this nonsense too? Yet the cases are parallel with the one exception that Catho lics pray to the saints. We do not pray to pictures or statues, but only to the Saints of which these images remind us. We do not adore the Saints. God Alone, we adore. Jesus Christ is our sole Mediator. But we can ask our friends on earth and God's friends in Heaven to pray for us, which interferes not in the least with the many prayers we say directly to God. In honor ing and praising the saints, we please God who has designated many of these heroes of Christianity as His own beloved in Heaven. The Saints are the Masterpieces of God, of whom He is the designer. If any person thinks that our doctrine of the Communion of , Saints is strange, let him remember that more than two-thirds of all Christendom has believed and acted upon this doctrine for 1900 years. Let him remember also that from the first cen tury to the sixteenth, this creed permeated all of Christianity; that it is still in the Apostles' creed. If you would like to know more about , the Saints and the part that they play in our life, write to Father Healy, Box 403, Franklin, N. C. and you will re ceive free of charge, a booklet on this wonderful doctrine. ST. FRANCIS CATHOLIC CHURCH Franklin, N. C. Daily weekday Mass at 7:30 a. m. Sunday Mass at 10:00 a. m.

Eldon Scott, extension entomologist at North Carolina State College. If the grain was infested when stor ed, he says, or if it was put into an infested bin, insect damage should now be apparent.

Nantahala Improvements Several improvements have been made at the Nantahala School this year. Just recently the hoys in the vocational training class, under the direction and super vision of Mr. Hall, cut enough locust posts to fence the drive way around the school building t.o protect the grass.

Dairy Extension Specialist Mar vin E. Senger says if progress to ward better production is to be made in any herd, the culls must be replaced by animals with the possibility of higher production. This North Carolina State College specialist adds that you should select these herd replacements from the higher producing cows in the herd and from bulls that have demonstrated their ability to improve production. Just re placing "a cow for a cow" gener ally will not result in increased production, he says. H I NTS TO llbwmakm R * bO I H C 8 H I 'i 1 TO MAINTAIN GOOD FLOOR t FINISH ? Our research specialists 1 say for the hardest most lustrous t and most protective finish on i floors (particularly in traffic c areas, entrances, and hallways* use two or three thin coats of < paste wax. Apply each coat of \ wax separately, let dry, polish, 3 then repeat the process. 1 To keep floors in good condition 1 polish frequently between waxings s to restore luster and remove scuff < marks from the floor. Frequent 1 buffings sometimes do as much 1 good as a new coat of wax. i Floors will not need frequent ' rewaxings if the floor is polished I often. When wax begins to wear , thin in traffic areas and the I luster is dimmed, apply a new ? State College Answers Timely Farm Questions ! Q. Should house plants be water ed by applying water on the top surface or should It be allowed to soak up from below? A. Either way. Preferably let it soak up from below. Place the pot in water until surface becomes moist, then remove. Another meth od is the "self watering" method. You need a container for the water, a wick to carry the water to the plant, and the potted plant. This works the same way a lamp wick carries oil to the flame. Make the wick of burlap or cheese cloth. Place the wick through the drain hole and unravel about 1 1 j inches. Place this on the bottom of the container and put in soil and the plant. Don't use cinders or gravel at the bottom. The wick must be in contact with the soil. Keep water in the container below the plant at all times. Q. What advantages result from artificially drying hay? A. There are many advantages, but important among the reasons for artificially drying hay are: The leaves are not lost in the field, resulting in higher quality; Field exposure time is reduced, and ' losses due to weathering are re ' duced by getting the hay off the j field sooner; Haymaking labor ] peaks are reduced and labor de mands level off. hin coat of wax to these areas. Che paste wax softens and blends n with the old wax and does lot build up objectionable layers >n the floor. If traffic areas are taken care >f. floors usually need entire re raxing only two or three times a rear. They should be rewaxed be 'ore the old layer has completely worn off. to protect the floor surface and keep it In good con iition. Allow wax to dry 20 to 30 ninutes.
