There's been a lot of talk about
»ne new inventions in the new
cars. They have been talking a lot
about putting the engine in the
rear of the car. making seats out of
soybeans, plastic bodies and steer
ing wheels made out of French
pastry in case you get hungry on
a long trip.
WHY DON'T THEY MANUFAC
TURE A NEW MAN? If there ever
was a contraption that needed im
proving, it's the human body! Let'?
begin at the bottom: take a look at
you feet. Now, there's a thing that's
absolutely without beauty. Would
any man go out with a girl that
looked like his feet?
Why don't they make feet in the
shape of wheels? Then, you could
roll around to see your friends and
roll to the office and when you
come home at night from work,
your wife could tie a suction bag
around your neck and use you for
a vacuum cleaner.
Now let's go up a little higher, to
the knee! No one has ever figured
out what the knee is for. It's always
getting out of joint and it needs
more attention than a second-hand
lawn-mower. In the old days, the
knee played a very important part
in love making. But, the automo
bile and drive-in theatre changed
that and has turned the parlor sofa
into a deteriorated useless, moth
eaten antique!
Now, we come to the stomach!
Otherwise known as THE PAUNCH'
There's a prominent part of the
human body particularly if vou
drink a lot of beer. The stomach
nerves two purposes. It holds your
dinner and what is much more im
portant, it's supposed to hold up
your pants. Now. the less saic"
about THE ARMS, the better! They
grow out of nothing, and thev swing
back and forth like a big baloon
The neck . . . the neck is a shirt
drain pipe that rises up out of the
shoulders and disappears into the
bottom of the head. It's usually de
corated with an Adams apple and
a collar. The Adams apple is a me
dium sized meat ball that keep.'
running up and down in front of
the neck looking for its mate
Many people try to hide it by wrap
ping a necktie around it but in
most cases, the tie is even uglier
than the apple. Many people arc
still of the opinion that they got
an Adams apple to show where
man got it in the neck!
me wutuu ue mue use
fill if it was ball-bearing, then you
could swing the head completclv
around without turning. With i
revolving head, a man could walk
down the street and if he noticed
a cute chick strolling past in the
opposite direction he could quick
ly swing his "head toward her and
ask her if she was going his way.
Now, wc come to tht TEETH,
'he average Vnan spenda fifty pcr
| nt of his salaryon &W ftmily. 25
™ jrcent on other girls and 25 per*
c-ent on his teeth- Let u* look into
the mouth of a man who lt«s just
cejebrated his 50th birthday and
what do we see? Bestdes a small
piece of birthday cake you see a
collection of inlays, concrete fill
ings. porcelain jackets and a ton
gue.
And. now we come to the man's
crowning glory—his HAIR! The top
of the head is the only spot where
hair can't be grown with much suc
cess. Maybe agriculture can solve
the problem. Farmers discovered
that the soil deteriorates unless
they rotate their crops. For ex
ample, if one year they raise corn,
the next year they raise wheat or
cabbage or even eggplant. Maybe
we can do the same thing to the
scalp. In the winter we could grow
hair and in the spring, the scalp
can be ploughed up and we can
plant some string beans. In Octo
ber they could be clipped and
made into a nice salad. The next
year you could try cabbage ... in
other words six months HAIR and
six months CABBAGE!
Bine Mold Discovered
On Tobaeco In Jones
i
The scourge of the tobacco plant j
beds, blue mold, has struck in
Jones County, it has been reported
by County Agent A. V. Thomas.
He said he discovered the blight
on the farms of Ernest Eubanks in
the Chinquapin Township of the j
county.
The size of the affected plants j
are larger than most in Jones!
County, Thomas said. They have
reached the size of a Z5-ccnt piece.
The burning effect of the blight
has been spotty on the 500 yards'
of plant bed, and the whole plant
b«d area has already been sprayed,
he said.
The county agent ursed all to
bacco farmers in the county and
section to begin immediately to
spray their plants, particularly'
those which have gained a size to!
be highly susceptible. The recom
mended treatment for the blue
mold, best applied in advance, is a
spray or dust of fermate or dithane.

Board Opposes
Rate Increases
For Tide Water
Town, Chamber
Send Protests
To Commission
The Jacksonville Town Council
: voted unanimously against the pro
posed increase in rates requested
by the Tide Wate Power company
nnd prepared a resolution which
. will be sent to State Utilities Chair
man Stanley Winborne in protest
I against the action at their regular
monthly meeting Tuesday night.
The town protested the increase
i last May. Mayor Herbert Eastwood
said, and wrote Winborne request
ing that the increase not be ap
i proved. Winborne replied. E.ist
! wood said, stating that the Utilities
Commission did not consider the
Tide Water request as an actual
increase in rates.
M. A. Cowell. council member,
made the motion calling for the
resolution and requested that oth
er interested organizations here
write in protest against the move.
A meeting to discuss the increase
has been scheduled by the com
mission for March 16 in Raleigh.
Cowell and the council members
urged that as many representatives
from Jacksonville as possible
| should attend the meeting.
The Jacksonville Chamber of
i Commerce passed a similar /esolu
tion in protest to the move in its
regular monthly meeting last
i veek.
A discussion of protests from
i Jacksonville citizens on uncovered
I garbage cans and stray dogs turn
! ing the cans over and scattering
the contents, was held by the coun
! cil. The cans, the commissioners
| urged, should be covered at all
'times with covers to prevent the
\ attraction of flies and dogs.
| The council approved the ap
■ pointment of Rev. Robert Kirch
| ercssner and Miss Helen Bryan to
fhe town recreation commission.
| Miss Bryan replaces Mrs. Laura
j Starling and Kirchgessner was
j named as the Tunior Chamber of
I Commerce representative.
I An excessive use of water by the
Onslow County Hospital was noted
i by the council. The hospital, Mayor
; Eastwood reported, used 900,000
i gallons last month. This, he said,
was more than either of the hospi
Itals in Kinston and New Bern used
j and over twice as much as the
| Southern;Xaurtdjry and Dry Clean
! ers used during the month,
i "We are glad to give the water
to the hospital." a councilman said,
'but there is a very definite waste
somewhere. Some correction should
be made immediately."
Mayor Eastwood said the Town
of Jacksonville was opposed to pro
oosed Tide Water rate increases
because principally, they affect the
small consumer, raising his rates
about $6 a year.
The southeastern power com
pany, it was stated, already has
higher rates than either the Duke
or Carolina Power companies.

Victor Venters of Richlands. and !
Mrs. Harold Koonce and Mrs. W.
T. Turlington cf Jacksonville. Mrs.
Louis Sylvester, another member
was unable to attend becausc of
Hlness.
Report from Mrs. ISisenman, the
retiring librarian, showed a decid
ed increase in circulation during:
the past months, which she attri
buted to the unusuaiiy large num
ber of new books .received. She
stated that the latest fiction anc1
non-fiction have been added to the
library and interest has increased
as a result.
The Board reviewed a list of

present quarters were availab'e.
