Anniveraray Of Day Of Infamy Today marks the fourth anniversary of the j Day of Infamy—the day that mad and world hungry Japs attacked Pearl Harbor. Terrible losses followed and human sacrifices mounted during the intervening years. . ... Sad to relate, but we have forgotten or we are trying our best to forget Pearl Harbor and the tragedies that followed. We are bent on hav ing a big time without let-up. We do not find time to keep up with the important events in the post-war period. Just as our people turned a deaf ear to Woodrow Wilson’s appeals at the end of World War 1 and let hope for world peace be lost by indifference and by default, we are today paying little attention to the plans and policies for shaping a world for lasting peace. We arc busy today dancing, frolicking and galivanting when we should be busy in study, addressing appeals to our representatives in Washington and urging them on to greater ef forts in the name of lasting peace. We should remember Pearl Harbor not alone as the beginning of murder on a world-wide scale, but as a reminder to work all the harder fo rpeace. Every individual will have a part in the pattern for the future. Will it be for peace or for more war? A Shameful Record Martin County failed by approximately $5,000 in meeting the 1945 United War Fund goal, ac cording to a fairly complete report on the drive recently ended. While there is no intention of overlooking the efforts of those who “begged” for the fund and those who gave up a few pleasures that they might help the cause of suffering humanity, the record stands mat in the war history of Martin . Cout$|'«&s n mgst shameful one. Our failure to meet the goal will be reflected, no doubt, in human misery and want and even death among peoples in other lands who can’t help themselves just now. Aside from that the failure offers in bold relief, a dangerous trend right here at home. When a pi ople ignores hu man suffering and allows pleasure, even ques tionable pleasures, and indifferences to creep in, there is an ill omen lurking somewhere along the line. Some of those who worked in behalf of little starving children were saddened by the cruel response given their plea' They even JJWd..-iTu abtr&i-rite*I’vr'-K>ciKiJ.«a4j*s5\..has in our own land. They askedl'What are we com ing to? There were some liberal contributions made to the fund this year in the county, but for every liberal contribution recorded, ten persons show ed indifference. A report from one community told of a holiday dance where five-, ten- and twenty-dollar bills were flashed. That com munity along with nearly every other one in the county did not raise half its quota Why, mention little incidents like that? Well, when there are countless numbers of such little in cidents, good things suffer. And when good things suffer, the individual first suffers, then the community and on up the line until suffer ing is rampant everywhere. Those who are too busy with their own pleasures to hear human ity’s call must pay in some way. Possibly the - will not be collected now or tomorrow, but when <.«fPPWjrin swerves too far from the right path, the old fiddler wiil collect in due time. It is true that our people have been called upon numerous times for this and that cause. But when we literally roll in wealth and enjoy so many blessings so abundantly we have no just right to continue on our merry way and ig nore the call of suffering humanity. The bushel of potatoes is determined by an accepted meas ure; those who gave liberally are measure as good citizens by their gifts. Good luck to those citizens who acted in the name of suffering hu manity, for not only suffering humanity, but good government and all that is good within it self look to them for help and guidance in this day of uncertainty. Our if underfill Languafir American is really a wonderful language and not to say fearful for a foreigner. When any es tablishment is closed up for any reason, we thereafter may refer to it as shut down. If any thing exciting is in progress, one newcomer may ask what’s going on and the next may inquire what’s coming off—both will be understood. In case we yell excitedly for someone to look out, we very probably intend for him to take his head in, and so it goes.—Memphis Commercial Appeal. .*« *t:xm ^rv^k^rv^k v**r.1V«v»r'.'V4 v*: /W ’**: *.Nt * Congress Cards -•rwct.i-sfSraiwwsraw Comb and Brush Sots lUKjaffl-KtsuWaafsaf-s Military Sets r*S*«iSs 9NrWJr«<sr«S Traveling Kits Fitted and Unfitted rttvcta cffeiK&MftnWi Perfume Sets Coly—Evening in Paris— Houbigant — Tangee — Weldon — Old Spice Make-up Kits Lunch Kits Cutex Sets Shoe Shine Kits Army and Navy Bahy Sets and Toys ■mem* * Picture Frames ga^^^c^-assrcss-aaagrease •' i *7 •'V# ^ ’.Hv ***.

The March of Dimes, he said, has become synonymous with the organ ized fight against poliomyelitis di rected and unified by The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, whose 1946 campaign will be com memorative of the late Franklin D. Roosevelt, who created the National Foundation and symbolized its con tinuing crusade. Reviewing the critical Hickory epidemic of 1944 and the famous “Miracle of Hickory” achieved by those who fought the Great Crip pler’s invasion of Catawba River val ley, Dr. McDonald said: “The National Foundation sent $693,004 in emergency aid into this state to fight the Hickory epidemic and to provide continuing care ana treatment this year for those who were stricken during that attack. "However, the National Founda tion's 50 percent share of this state’s March of Dimes contributions from 1939 to 1945, inclusive, was $425,393. In other words, the national organi zation has sent more funds into this state in a year and a half than it received in seven years." Price Advances For Cottonseed In N. C. Raleigh.—John Winfield, market newsman with the State Department of Agriculture, reports a steady ad vance in the price of cottonseed be ing sold in North Carolina. Wagon lots of seed arc averaging around $47.50 per ton at cotton gin ners' stations throughout the State, Winfield said. This is an average of 30 cents more per ton than the price paid cotton producers during the second week in November. IN MEMORY OF DADDY It was early in the month of June, M.v heart was f::\-d with pain. I lost by dear old Daddy, Never to see him again. Daddy knows we miss him, Each lonely day and night. It seems so hard to give him up, But God knows which is right. We’ve always been together, Did things the easy way. Now that he's gone, our hearts are sad, Which used to be so gay. Daddy was so gentle, Was so liked by every one. He made us all so happy, From dawn to setting sun. No matter when thp And things are a little blue, You'll always be right with us Dad You were so kind and true. So God bless all of Daddy's friends. In each and every way, And guide us safely, through life’s path, Until we meet that Glorious Day. In memory of W. H. Hardison, by Evelyn Hardison. North Carolina, Martin County.
