Rotary President,
Delos Hooper, Pays
Tribute To Dr. Hunter
The following tribute by Rotary
president, Delos Hooper, to the
memory of the late Dr. H. T. Hun
ter, member of the Sylva club, was
given at the memorial service for
the deceased, held Tuesday in
Hoey auditorium at Culkiwhee :
Speaking in behalf of the Sylva
Rotary Club we have sustained an
irreparable loss in the demise of
Ty Hunter, one of the most out
standing Rotarians of the state. Be
ing a member of this club nearly
twenty years, his presence and
great leadership has been as a
guiding star pointing us to and
emulating that great slogan of Ro
tary, "Service Above Self," and
with all his dealings and associa
tions with his fellowman, no one
can contradict the fact ul trial be
ing one of the great high-lighta of
his life. With a generous and will
ing heaft he gave his all in real
service to his fellowman.
He has faithfully and loyally
served the club in every capacity
up to and including the presidency.
With such fine work in his local
club he soon won great admiration
from many other clubs, and in rec
ognition of his unselfish work in
ROTary he was elected Governor
of the 190th District of Rotary In
ternational which comprised most
of South Carolina and Western
North Carolina. ,
In thus doing was the greatest
joy of his life and every one far
and near learned to love and ad
mire such* a great servant of man
kind.
Truly we lost much and it is now
our opportunity to push harder
that object he so much cherished.
We, who are living, do not un
derstand and did not properly
evaluate his physical infirmities,
WE HAVE. . .

EXPERIMENT STATION
RELEASES BULLETIN
Experiments conducted by two
North Carolina scientists prove
that rotational grazing on native
ranges is not practical.
Results of the experiments con
ducted have been released in a
bulletin by the North Carolina
Agriculture Experiment Station.
H. H. Biswell, of the South
eastern Forestry Experiment Sta
tion, and J. E. Foster of the Ag
riculture Experiment Station* con
ducted their experiments at the
Blanckland Branch Station from
1942 to 1944. Though the tests were
hampered by wild fires, enough
experimental lands were unaf
fected to complete the experiments.
The study was designed to test
two kinds of rotational grazing and
compare their results to those of
continuous grazing. One set of
plots was grazed continuously, a
second was grazed for 28 days then
rested for 28 days, and a third set
In their conclusions, the authors
state that the three systems of
grazing gave about the same re

displayed in making this a better

And now I can not-refrain from
paraphrasing this fine tribute to
such a GREAT MAN:
"In the book of life on its pages
of old
His virtues are traced in letters of

Each kindly "act and good deed

Is there recorded one by one.
