Sectional Chamber Commerce Dinner To Be Held April H Speaker for Tarboro Evenl To Be Announced By Secretary Soon The fourteenth annual dinner oi the Eastern Carolina Chamber oJ Commerce will be held in Tar bo re April 16th. at 7 o'clock p. m., in thi Episcopal Parish House, according to a statement made by N. G. Bart lett, secretary of this organization, for this paper this week. "While w? are not sure who the principal speaker will be, we are certain to have a man of outstanding national importance," Bartlett said An or chestra featuring Miss Josephine Larkin, of Ziegfeld Follies fame, has been booked for the occasion. The meeting is open to the general public. Dinner plates will be $1 each, and reservations may be made direct to Eastern Carolina Chamber of Commerce, Kinston* or to Mer chants Association. Tarboro. It is considered by officials to be very fitting that the annual meet ing this year is being held in the peanut section, for it was this or ganization that took the leadership in the campaign to get benefits for peanuts under the AAA and suc ceeded in getting definite results for the thousands of growers in Eastern Carolina within six months from the time the act was made into a law; while some other commodities that had the same opportunity did not benefit at all during the three-year life of the AAA. The peanut grow ers of the section owe a long debt of gratitude for this one achieve ment of the organization. Currituck farmers are exhibiting interest in electrifying their farms. Contracts and right-of-ways are now bejing signed from Moyock to Coinjock. DR. V. H. MEW BORN OPTOMETRIST Bethel office at Rives Drug Store, Tuesday.

For their 1934 efforts the farmers got $112,376,628, or $331,860 more than in 1935 despite the fact that their crop was 155,723,408 pounds less. The service warned of "the seem ing intention to increase the 1936 flue-cured crop in the fare of exist ing record high stocks." and called attention to the low prices paid in 1931 on the heels of the record crop which totaled 563.327.005 pounds. 'The high price for the 1934 crop ,was due to several factors," the report reviewed, "AAA control, a low year's production and improv ed economic welfare. The low price of the 1931 crop was due to the record 1930 crop, tremendous decline in consumption, prospective record stocks or carry-overs and the serious depression existing at that time, even though the 1931 crop was greatly reduced. "So we find 1936 largely repeat ing itself with phenomenally high stocks, the second highest crop pro duction, absence of AAA control, no definite tobacco program, and low consumption," it stated. Last year's high sales on North Carolina markets were 13,000,000 pounds more than had been esti mated and, in addition, the report ing service estimated, there were about 20,000,000 pounds of North Carolina flue-cured tobacco sold in other states. r "CURIOUS!

PINCH. Hon Serrica Dirsctor Virginia Electric I Pastry A very tender and flaky pie pas try can be made from the foUowini recipe: 1 1-2 cups flour, ^ 1-2 cup fat, 3-4 tap. salt. Cold water to make dought, a bout 1-4 cup. If a liquid fat is used no water is needed. Cut the fat into the flour with two knives until well distri buted. Stir in only enough water to hold dough together. Knead very lightly to mix well. The pas try may be chilled before it is roll ed. Rub just enough flour on bread board to keep pastry from sticking. Roll lightly with rolling pin to a bout one-eighth inch thickness. This makes enough for a double crusl pie. In making a two crust pie cut the top crust 1-2 inch wider than the lower crust. The edges can be sealed by moistening with milk or water, then folding the top crust under the lower, and fluting edge with fork or fingers. This prevents juices from running out. When baking pastry shell on out side of pan, choose a pan with slop ing sides. Prick a few times with a fork. After it is baked and cool ed, the shell will fit nicely inside the pan. Another way to insure a shapely pie shell is to use two pie plates of the same size. Fit roled crust in side one of the plates; trim and flute edge. Place second pie plate inside the pastry-lined plate and bake. The weight of top plate keeps crust in place. Individual tart crusts may be used for creamed meats or meat salads, as well as the sweet fillings. In order to give the pie pastry a different and pleasing flavor, grat ed cheese can be sprinkled over roll ed out pastry and pressed into it with rolling pin. This is especially good with apple fillings. Any kind of chilled fruit juice may be used to moisten the flour [or the dough instead of water. A cream custard filling would be pal stable served in a crust like this. For a festive looking tart shell, dip the edges, after baked, in slight ly beaten egg white, then in crush ed nuts. Allow nuts to dry on shell and fill. ? B. Y. P. U. Give Program Here Last Sunday Night Religious activities of the town Sunday evening were centered in a program by members of the Bap list Young Peoples' Union in the lo cal Baptist church.

Any Surplus Funds Of Highway Money To Maintain Roads Extensive Sums Will Be Needled for Repairing Damaged Roads Raleigh?Those who are worry ing lest the highway fund is going to have another big surplus in it again at the end of this and next year, while the highway depart ment is not going to have enough funds to repair and maintain the roads from the present appropria tion, are unduly aroused, it is be ing pointed out by officials of the State Highway and Public Works Commission. For the 1935 General Assembly, in the appropriations act made it possible for the governor to in crease the appropriation for high way maintenance if the revenue should exceed the appropriation and if an additional amount should be needed for maintenance pur poses. The result is that "there ain't go ing to be no highway surplus," by the time the 1937 general assembly meets which means that there will not be the fight over the highway fund surplus such as took place in 1935. This means that if on July 1, there is still a surplus in the high way fund after all obligations have been paid and after the present ap propriation of $10,000,000 for main tenance has been expended, that the governor, as director of the budget, can release as much as he thinks is needed from this surplus for additional maintenance work between July 1, 1936 and June 30, 1937. Already $3,000,000 of the 1935 sur plus has been used in additional maintenance work, while the pres ent appropriations bill contem plates the using of all the remain ing surplus by June 30, 1937, the end of the present biennium. But if it becomes apparent that the high way fund revenues are increasing faster than had been expected and tht the surplus is getting larger in stead of smaller, the highway de partment will be able to use some of this additional revenue for main tenance purposes, provided the governor approves of such use. Any such surplus, however, will have to be in excess of $2,000,000 since it is agreed that the highway department must ' maintain a cash balance of at least $2,000,000 at all times in order to operate economi cally and keep from having to bor row. Add Mineral Mixture To Ration lor Young Poultry Home-grown feeds do not supply enough calcium and phosphorous and it is necessary that a good mineral mixture be provided, es pecially for growing and breeding animals. For good producers a mineral mixture composed of equal parts of finely ground limestone and steamed bone meal should be added to the concentrate ration at the rate of two pounds of minerals to each 100 pounds of ration. This, together with the minerals carried in the hay and grain will enable the cow to replace the calcium and phos phate taken from her body by heavy milk production. AILING ALL THE TIME?

Camels Are Approved as BeneSt To Digestion Smoking Camels has been found a defnite aid in promoting good di gestion. ? This fact is announced in an ex tensive new campaign of newspaper advertising just released by the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, mak ers of Camel cigarettes. It Is the latest development in the constant ly widening Held of knowledge re garding the physiology of food as similation, made especially signifi cant by the fact that millions al ready smoke and enjoy Camels reg ularly. Careful studies, now completed, show that smoking a Camel during or between meals gently stimulates and promotes the action of the di gestive juices. This conclusion, the result of objective measurements made under controlled conditions, means that regular Camel smokers enjoy maximum benefits, since di gestion goes on for approximately four hours. These new facts are popularized in the campaign through the slogan "For digestion's sake?smoke Cam els. ?' The sheer smoking enjoy ment obtained from smoking the choice tobaccos in Camels also con tributes to their value in relieving the strain on digestion, since ib is known that pleasure plays a major role in the proper digestion and utilization of food. The Camel advertisements gain especial attention through using il lustrations of scenes in famous A merican restaurants where Camels are in demand among those who are in a position to enjoy the finer phases of enjoyable living. Among those restaurants featured are Kugler's, famous old Philadelphia restaurant; the Gold Coast Room of the Drake Hotel in Chicago, and Keen's English Chop House in New York City. "Camels are a favorite here." reports William, of Keen's. "We've noticed that our guests who smoke Camels during and after meals seem to And more pleasure in dining.'' The rush, strain and eternal hur ry of modern living affects the di gestion of people in every walk of lite. The value of Camel* in i the effect* of this unnatural and stniin is reported in the new advertising by many Camel smok ers who lead strenuous lives; such as Frank Buck; William LaVarTe, the explorer; George Lott, jr.; Les ter Stoeten, the tennis champion, and many others.
