('. and Elev en Seniors Win I)ipl(»mas Excellent commencement piograms last week maikecl the close of u very t=uccessful year at the Vass-Lakeview schools. (In VVocinesUay evening ,the annual recitation-declamation contest was held with Alma Crouse and Coker Blue carrying off the highest honors. Other contestants, each of whom was a credit to the school, were Gladys Cox, Edna Earle Richardson, Lester Marks, Connor Cole and Johnnie Alex ander. Class day exercises were held on Thursday evening with Emily Laub- schei' as salutatorian and Eva Calla han as valedictorian. The program was in the foi m of a radio broadcast with A. G. Eilwards, Jr., as announc er. It was entirely different from any thing ever before given in the school and was loudly applauded. Instead of only hearing of the future success of the various members of the class, the audience was allowed to see each of the members in “1954” and to lis ten to their message by radio. The one who is to become a great musi cian played several high class selec tions, but to the imtrained ear, every number sounded the same and close ly akin to "coonshine.” Another ap peared with his wife and five child ren, including a set of twins. The first woman president was there, also. A. M. Calhoun was the director of this program. Little Mary F'mma Laub.scher, 18- months-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Laub.scher, was the charming mascot and did her part perfectly. The commencement address was de livered by Dr. Geoige Howard of <he University of North Carolina at 10 o'clock Friday morning and was Farm Housing Survey in Moore Wins State-Federal Recognition VASS * ■ l?\ .Mrs. S. K, Siiiitli Moore county hfi.s recently been brought into the limelight through the I>'i'doral Farm Housing Survey, not tircaiise of the outstanding condition cf its rural homes, but becau.se of the fine job done by the corps of workers making the survey and the superiority of the recommendations for a follow-up program sent in by the county chairman, Mrs. Z. V. Blue, a Moore county farm woman who has a way of doing in a superior fashion whatever she attempts. This Farm Hou.sing Survey was f)ut on by the F’edeial Bureau of Home Economics and the Federal CVVA in i-epresenting areas in forty- six state.s for the puipose of securing basic facts regarding conditions in farm homes as a preliminary step in a program for improving the farm home and its equipment. Enumera tors visited every farm family, going into the matter of houses and fami lies, light and heat, water supply and sanitation, checking the present con dition and listing desired improve- I ments. Chairmen were asked to make recommendations for a foUow-up program. Federal Iteeognition Moote county was one of ten areas in North (’arolina selected for the suivey, and at the close, the woik here was coniniendeil in fialeigh by Miss Helen F^stabrook, Exten.sii/n Specialist in Home Management, who was in charge of the survey in this state. Hut this was not all, A few (lays ago Mr.s. Blue leceived a mime- cgrai'hed pamphlet on Better Homes Week, (>repared in Washington for (.list ribution throughout the L’nited Slates, and of the four and one half pages of pi'intoil matter, two were fill ed with "lOXCFRI’TS FliOM MOOF.E Popularity Contest Susan Swett and (i!eorf>e Pot tle in .Lead in Hiyh School Votin)?

I^ottle, with 1370 votes, was being given a stiff fight by Tom Carlisle, who had 1315. FTIdwin Cox was third with 775.

John McCrummen awarded 23 seventh grade certificates and around forty perfect attendance certificates and finally, the various medals and prizes.

One I of the requirements was that the chairman be a woman with home economics training, and as far as was possible, women with home demon- strf>,tion club training were used as enumerators. !

Office force, architect and enumerators did excellenttwork and suggestions made by them were ver^ valuable to Mrs. Blue in making out her follow-up work at odd times, or on a rainy day. III. Suggested Improvements for Laiger Amounts of Money. 1. Build New House—In some cases a house is not worth painting or remodeling, and a new house is badly needed. Often the farmer can furnish his own timber for his house, and pay for having his timber sawed into lumber by selling additional tim ber. 2. Add New Rooms Many times I additional rooms are needed for com fort and privacy. I think these needs are more imperative than painting, 3, Exterior Painting—I suggest exterior painting, because if a place looks like somebody lives there, the occupants will probably feel that .somebody does live there, and they will not be satisfied until the inside pears elsewhere in this paper.

Installation of More Complete ■ Water System- Water is easily acces sible, and I think as pride in one’s home and its convenience grows, this will include toilet facilities.” The survey in Moore county, as well as throughout the various states, disclosed many startling facts. Of the 2304 farm homes visited in Moore county, 95 per cent are unpainted; 51 per cent are unscreened, and 52 per cent have no toilet facilities. W’a- ter is carried, on an average, 308 feet.
