WHITTIN6T0N LIKES MOUNTAINS AND LOCAL PEOPLE "North Carolina is a wonderful place but I never dreamt you could build houses in such small val leys," said Mrs. E. Whittington, who arrived in Dillsboro on Aug. 7 from Shirley, Southampton, England. Mrs. Whittington is in Dillsboro where she is making her home with her daughter, Mrs. J.| C. Dillard, and Mrs. Dillard and her grandson, Paul. Mrs. Whittington left South-] ampton on July 31 on the Quepn Mary, the maiden voyage of the ship since the war. "There was a band, cheers, and hundreds of people," she says "and it was won derful." The Queen Mary made a very nice crossing, although she found the ship much warmer than she was accustomed to at home.' She also finds the temperature in Dillsboro mucn hotter than at home. But the" ship was smooth as sitting in an armchair, she says, so she didn't mind the heat too much. On arriving in New York, the most eventful procedure was pass ing the customs which had her somewhat excited?so excited that she forgot her sewing machine on the Queen Mary and it has prob-f ably returned to England by this I time. From Pennsylvania station, Mrs. Whittington caught a train which was almost stalled out from Washington, making the arrival in Asheville almost seven hours late so that it was 10:15 p. m. when she arrived. Her daughter, Mrs. Dillard, had arranged to meet her at the railroad station in Ashe ville, but in Salisbury it was nec essary to make a change of trains,| and Mrs. Whittington and a lady, I who was also traveling, switched to a bus in order to arrive more quickly in Asheville. In AsheviHe at 10:30 p. m. Mrs. Whittington was at a loss to find her daughter, Mr$. Dillard, who had arranged to meet her at the railroad station seven hours before. Finding herself alone but not at a loss for what to do, Mrs. Whittington called a po liceman who carried her down to police headquarters and arranged for her to spend the night at the Langren hotel, in Ashevi.le until the Asheville police could locate Mrs. Dillard. Early the next morn ing they had succeeded and Mrs. Dillard reached her mother by telphone. "By that t.mc we mostly cried," says Mrs. Whittington. Mrs. Dillard has been in Ameri ca for a year last February so that it has been some time since she had seen her mother. Both plan to stay in America to make their home, and Mrs. Dillard in her year here has found that she would not want to live in England again, but declares she "would like to go back for a visit some time but not to stay." The Dillsboro people have been unusually nice to Mrs. Whittington. She remarks that she finds every thing different here, especially the food which she found when she ?attended the Bumgarner reunion week where there was fried chickens and eggs by the dozens. In England eggs are available at the rate of one about every three to five weeks and chickens com pletely unreasonable in price. Last Christmas a small chicken cost about 25 shillings, or $7, provided you could find one at any price. Dillsboro compares very favor ably with New York in Mrs. Whit tington's opinion. She says that New York so "slummy" that she didn't even stay to do sightseeing. But she thinks Dillsboro is "won derful" and the local people are so "chummy and nice." She de clares that most of all here she appreciates the way of living with out class distinctions which is prevalent in England. Everyone here seems so free to her in com parison. After the tiresome trip from England Mrs. Whittington has not found time to look over the moun tains very much, but her most anxious wish is to see the Indians. "At home," she says, "I told all MUGGS AND SKEETER War Department Accept ing Applications For Reserve Commissions The War Department has re cently announced that warrant of ficers, flight officers, and enlisted; personnel of the first three grades who have served honorably for at ;least six months on active Federal service in the Army of the United States or one of its components, between 7 December 1941 and 30 j June 1947, may apply for a com mission in the Officers' Reserve i Corps.

Applications for commission in the Officers' Reserve Corps should be mailed to the Commanding Gen eral, Third Army, Atlanta 3, Geor gia, Attention: Military Personnel Procurement Division, AG Section, prior to 31 December 1947. Mrs. T. C. Harrison spent Tues-| day in Asb??ville on business. my friends I was coming here to see the Indians and get myself a guitar and live with the hilly billies in the mountains. They were very envious." And the Americans seem to like Mrs. Whittington just as much as she likes them. She is so "chum my." The 1947 acreage of corn for harvest in North Carolina is esti mated at 2,182,000 acres, and pros pective yields point to a crop equal to the 58,914,000 bushels harvest ed in 1946. Wheat straw constitutes the major proportion of the small grain crop produced in North Carolina, and it is estimated that 400,000 tons of wheat straw was produced in 1945.
