Garrison, County Agent Since it seems now that we are not going to get anything in the way of a Federal project to get any of our terracing done in the county, we are going about this in a different manner and one which John W. Good man, Assistant Director, says is a more logical way of doing it, and the way in which a number of counties at this time are getting their work done. This is through the purchase of a tractor and a grader. Eight of the counties in the state at this time are getting their work done in this manner. The cost on this work usually runs from $1.50 to $2.50 per acre and in some places the work is being done for even less than the first figure quoted. If we are able to get enough re quests for this type of work to war rant the purchase of one of these out fits, the State will furnish a man to run these lines and look after the equipment. All the purchase price of the equipment w'ill be on a self liqui dating basis. No one will be asked to put any money into the machinery. All that will be asked is that you de cide whether or not you want your work done. If you do, how much and when, then fill In the blsmk which was sent to you and return it to me.. If we get enough of these requests then the outfit will be placed in the County. Since the adjustment program came about there is considerable more interest in soil building and legume crops. There is no other way I know of to keep good land in this condi tion except to have an adequate sys tem of terraces and a cropping sys tem including cover crops. A far mer’s land is his bank, and if you draw out more than you put in it will just be a question of time until there will be nothing left except gul lies or subsoil. Even though the land may not show to be g:ullied up there is very often a certain amount of wash ing just the same. Very little of our land in the county is not subject to erosion. In some cases as much as 17 tons per acre of top soil is being car. ried off each year. 13 IN GRADU.\TINO CL.\SS OF MOOKE COUNTV HOSPITAL The Rev. A. J. McKelway, pastor of the Pinehurst Community Church, will deliver the baccalaureate sermon to members of the graduating class of nurses of the Moore County Hospital Sunday evening at the Community Church.

Craighill Brown, rector of Emmanusl Church in Southern Pines, was named an alternate delegate to the provincial synod to be held in Lexington, Kentucky in November. ASK ROAD IMPROVEMENT Among petitions presented the State Highway Commission at Ral eigh on Wednesday was one for the improvement of the road from Car thage to the intersection with U. S. Highway No. 1 north of Cameron. Presenting Anne Shirley, O. p. Heggie and Helen Westley, the win ning trio of "Anne of Green Gables,” in roles with sympathy and human appeal, RKO-Radio brings "Chasing Yesterdays” to the screen in an adap tation of "The Crime of Sylvester Bonnard,” the classic novel by Ana- tole France which elevated the famous French author to the French Acad emy. "CJuuiing Yesterdays” is the attraction at the Souths'rn Pines Thea tre Monday, Tuesday, W'ednesday, May 13, 14, 15, with a Tuesday mat inee. Although having Paris and its provinces as backgrounds, "Chasing Yesterday” is remini.scent in many ■ways of the poignantly appealing "Anne of Green Gables.” It deals with the fast friendship between Syl- vestrc Bonnard, elderly .savant, and Jean Alexandre, orphaned daughter of the sweetheart of his youth. The story develops situations replete with humor, suspense, comedy and drama as Sylvestre attempts to .save the lovely orphan from the cruel domi nance of an unscrupulous guardian. Youthful romance has its part in the plot, w’ith Trent Durkin playing a stu dent who falls in love with the beau tiful little heroine. Comedy is pro vided by the pungent philo.sophies tossed off by Therese, Bonnard’s housekeeper, an acid old woman. Anne Shirley, of course, depicts Jean, and O. P. Heggie as Sylvestre and Helen W'estley as Therese complete the trio. An added attraction is Walt Disney’s new AA-Technicolor Silly Symphony, ‘The Golden Touch.” , They’re calling "Our Little Girl,” I Shirley Temple's greatest. This Fox , Film picture, the attraction at South ern Pines Thur.sday, Friday and Sat urday, May 16, 17, 18 with a Satur day matinee, has been lauded every where. In this production the first since the child screen wonder receiv ed the special award from the acad emy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, she gives a powerful por trayal of a child’s heartbreak. When those she loves grope in the shad ows of misunderstanding, Shirley I meets the crisis with a brave .smile. I She plays at being happy to rebuild a shattered dream. "Our Little Girl” I is a poignant story, tenderly conceiv- I ed, freighted with heart-tugs, yet I leaving the audiences, from all re ports, strangely happy. Hundreds of novels and short stories in print and typescript were read before this par ticular story was selected for Shir ley. It tells the s-tory of a happy family disunited by suspicions, threat ened with wreckage, and of a little girl who runs away from her home when she finds all the joy and safe- g'uards gone. Alone Shirley Temple suffices to make any picture popu lar, but Producer Edward Butcher has loaded "Our Little Girl” with taal- I ent Rosemary Ames plays Shirley s mother; Joel McCrea, who needs no introduction, plays her father.. "Poo dles” Hanneford, world - famous clown and circus rider has an amaz ing act; he clowns, rides, falls and thrills in the circus sequence which has everything complete from the wild animals to the big three-ring tent.

Garrison, Jr., County Agent Calls are already coming in re garding control of the Mexican Bean Beetle. There has been a good many things tried with more or less suc cess. One of the greatest troubles we I have found so far is getting the ma terial put on properly. Some of the sprays and dusts that were used be fore are still being recommended and one new one, Rotenone, which is be ing put out this year for the first time. This, from all reports is a lit tle more expensive to use but is much more effective than anything tried out so far. This may be either used as a dust form or as a spray. Sprays are as a general rule just as effec tive as dust, if properly applied. Someone here will handle this ma terial, I am sure, and if anyone is in terested in trying the material out all the directions for its use will be fumi.shed. Shirley with the Academy Award, he said, "You have made more people happy and made more children laugh than any child your age in the his tory of the world.” The Carolina Theatre at Pinehurst is (I' sed for the season.
