Tex Benton Jumps From Eleventh To First Place on List Race Is Close and Compe tion Keen; 8 More Days Of Big Vote Period -®> By “Popular Baby Parade" Editor At the close of the second week of the “Popular Baby Parade,” there is a new name heading the honor roll, Little Tex Benton, in the eleventh po sition last week, jumped to No. 1 po sition. Some jump—but Tex made it, so you see. regardless of your ba by's standing this week, he or she can attain a higher position next week by a little extra effort on your part. There is so little difference between tne “Paraders” at this writing that no one baby has any real advantage over any other baby. In fact, a club of $15 in subscriptions would change the whole story. The race is very close and the competition keen, but the honor and glory of being king or queen of this locality, plus $200 in cash and a beautiful loting cup. are well worth your efforts. Now Is the Time t> Work Just eight more days of the big vote period. Between now and 9 o’ clock p. m., April 5th, each 1-year subscription counts 2.000 votes; a two-year subscription counts 5,000 votes; and a 5-^ear subscription 15, 000 votes. The second period votes will decrease one-half and during the third and last period they decrease to one-half of the second period. Ex tra effort now will mean more than at any other time during the cam paign. Collections on delinquent subscriptions will count just the same as the above schedule. If you have not entered your baby as yet, do so now. Clip the coupon from this paper and bring to “Pop ular Baby Parade" headquarters, lo cated in Womble’s Drug Store, Plym outh. Another honor roll and more baby pictures will be published in next week's issue of The Roanoke Beacon.

Boney. state I insurance commissioner, that the sec ond floor of the Hampton school ! building is subject to condemnation and ordering that its use be discon tinued until certain conditions are [remedied. Mr. Boney’s letter was ad dressed to H. H. McLean, as county superintendent of public instruction, and carried the seal of the insurance department, certifying that It was an official notice, dated March 25. 1941. It is not known when or why an inspection was made of the school, as local school officials have no knowledge of it at all. However, it has been known that the building Is in need of extensive repairs. The county board of education does not have a meeting scheduled until the first Monday in April, when it is probable that the plans for the ad ditions at the high school building will be altered to include sufficient ; room to care for both high school and , elementary school children under the j same roof. It is understood that the | Hampton building will continue to be [used until other arrangements can be ! made.

These outside exits have stairways which, in addi tion to being of wood, have mr»-e t'^n the safe number of treads to the unit and would, in ail probability, col lapse under fire conditions. The location of two of the three entrances to these two outside exits are such as to create panic condi tions on the second floor in case of fire on the first floor.
