Friday, December 28, 1934. THE PILOT, Southern Pines and Aberdeen, North Carolina Page Thrai FORD WORUD FAIR EXHIBIT TO BE DEARBORN FIXTURE The great Ford Rouge plant at Dearborn, Mich., is to be thrown open to the public as a permanent world's fair. To provide a proper gateway through which visitors from all over the world may enter the huge plant, the dominant structure of the 1934 World’s Fair at Chicago, the giant, gear-shaped rotunda of the Ford Ex position—which drew 12,000,000 visi tors in the 169 days of the 1934 fair, is to be re-erected on a permanent site opposite the Ford Administra tion building and surrounded with a 13 1-2-acre landscaped parks. The spectacular lighting effects used by Ford at the Fair, the famous “Roads of the World," the vast photo graphic murals depicting Industrial scenes in the Ford plant, the Ford “world," and many of the exhibits seen by millions at the Ford EJxposi- tion in Chicago will be permanently placed in connection with the Ford project. Two wings, each 110 feet long, will extend from the rotunda. One will house a display of modern Ford pro ducts, the other a theater with a capacity of 500, in which new mo tion pictures will be shown, and meet ings will be held of Ford salesmen and dealers who make periodic trips to Dearborn. m Ark i&outhem ^inrs, N.

B. Dnnnagan, The Pilot's Raleigh Correspondent Frank Page’s Monument One of the greatest monuments ever erected to a North Carolinian has already been built and honors Frank Page, who died in Raleigh last week and was buried in the family plot of the church graveyard near Aberdeen beside the graves of two distinguished brothers, Walter Hines Page, noted publisher, editor of World’s Work and ambassador to England in the Wilson administration, and Robert N. Page, former Con gressman and banker. The monument to Frank Page is in concrete and is miles and miles of ribbons over which North Carolinians pass every hour of every day, the main part of which was constructed under the direction of Mr. Page dur ing the first decade of the State’s highway program from 1918 to 1929, while he served as chairman. This distinguished son of a distin guished family took the help of the road movement and carried success fully until he felt he had completed the job to a stopping place, a ser vice that has been duly appreciated from the beginning as will be more appreciated as years pass. Under Mr. Page’s direction more than $100,000,- 000 was spent, without a single thought of reproach or criticism. Af ter finishing that job he took charge of the Raleigh branch of the Wa chovia Bank & Trust Co. As execu- I tive vice-president and handled that ! and many civic duties in the same ef ficient and effective manner. He built his own lasting monument in every I county in the state.

The Governor’s Christmas Governor Ehringhaus and his fam ily are spending the entire Christmas and New Year season in the Execu tive Mansion in Raleigh. Plans were to have all of Mrs. Ehringhaus’ rel atives at the mansion for Christmas day, some 15 or more, and for New Year's day, relatives of Governor Ehringhaus are to be present, prob ably a dozen. The three cliildren, Blucher, and the twins, Haughton and Mitilda, the latter Mrs. Rush Jolly, will be with the family most of the time. While taking only a short period out for rest, Governor Ehring haus plans to spend most of the time for the next two weeks prepar ing his message to the General As sembly which convenes January 9, and looking after other matters de veloping at the office. be familiar enough with the work to carry on if something should hap pen to the chairman. The commis sion is said to have considered this some time ago, but deferred final ac tion until the chairmanship reaches final form. Still another step early will be naming a State highway en gineer to succeed the late John O. Waldrop. W. Vance Baise, former as sistant, has been acting engineer since Mr. Waldrop's death, and is considered a likely candidate. R. G. Browning, claim and locating engi neer, and Jack Roach, now in charge of the prison division, are mention ed. Also, it is understood that Char les Upham, former engineer, who for several years has been executive secretary of the American Road Builders Association, is an applicant for the job he held during the early years of the big road program. Heavy Pneumonia Toll Pneumonia caused more deaths in North Carolina in November than all of the so-called violent deaths, includ ing automobile accidents.

Control Acts Approved North Carolinians have shown al most complete and unanimous faith in two New Deal movements by pop ular vote of those affected in as many weel's Last week, by an even greater majority t han w&a given the Bankhead Cotton Control act, the to bacco growers gave approval to the Kerr-Smith Tobacco Control law. Both have meant many additional millions of dollas in the pockets of North Carolinians during the past year and the feeling is almost unan imous that the control plan should be continued as to both of these im portant North Carolina crops. The cotton act was approved by about to 10 to 1 vote, while the tobacco fig ures will show a much more unified opinion when the reports are all in. Highway Personnel The State Highway and Public Works Commission did nothing at its meeting last week toward straight ening out the personnel of the organ ization, but it is expected that two or three moves may be made within a few weeks now. It would not be surprising if real soon Capuf? M. Way- nick, new assistant chairman, is made actual chairman. Recent develop ments relative to the stricken chair man, Edwin B. Jeffress, might seem to indicate that a chairman may be nauied in his place and early action on that suggestion would not be ex pected. With that done, another step would be to name an assistant chair man, still another man, who would Miss Sally Allison is spending her Christmas vacation in the Moore County Hospital recovering from an appendicitis operation which she un derwent last Wednesday night.

Symington, Public Health Officer Rabies and hydrophobia are the same disease. The disease is called ra bies when it affects animals and hy drophobia when it affects human be ing. All warm blooded anima*^ are capable of being infected with ra bies. In European countries the dog is the animal usually to be infected. In India and other Eastern countries jackals, wolves and monkeys are fre quently infected with rabies and of ten go mad. These quite frequently bite dogs and other domestic animals such as cows and horses and there in turn become infected and develop rabies. Man is also often bitten by these animals mentioned especially the dog and monkey. In this country at present there are a number of dogs infected with ra bies and these dogs are sometimes transported from state to state and sometimes carried across the ocean to countries free of rabies. They are quarantined at ports of such coun tries for six months to see if they will develop the disease before they are allowed to run around and mingle with other dogs, ajid in this way cer tain countries are kept free of the di sease. There have been recently a num ber of dogs destroyed in North Car olina suffering from rabies. Two young men were recently bit ten by a rabid dog in Moore coun ty. These and two others who han dled the dog, which one of them suc ceeded in killing, are now taking prophylatic treatment for hydropho bia at the public health office. This Is a prolonged and |>ainful treat ment and causes a great deal of in convenience to those having to under go the treatment. It means one in jection a day hyphodermically for twenty-one days in succession. Owing to the presence of rabies in different parts of the county it is advisable to have all dogs immun ized against the disease and be taken out for exercise on lease or muzzled, or kept in a walled-in court yard so that they can not bite other dogs, or human beings and thoy will be less likely to get into a fight and be bit ten by mad dogs themselve.s. All dogs these days should be carefully watch ed for symptoms of rabies.
