Under the new provisions, a registrant must register with a draft board or a draft registrar within the period 30 days before to 30 days after his 18th birthday. He must bring some official type of iden tification with him when he registers, such as his birth certificate, Social Security Account Number card, drivers license, shcool or college ac tivity card, or a credit card. The new registration procedures are designed to make registration more registrant-oriented and draft board operations more streamlined. Registration will consist of filling out a Registration Card, Ad ditionally, a new Registration Questionnaire also must be filled out, although the registrant can take the questionnaire with him, or it may be mailed to him. He must return it within 10 days. The new Registration Questionnaire requires the names and addresses of three persons outside the registrant 's immediate family who will always know his address. The names, relationships, and addresses of all the registrant's family over age 16 also must be listed. In addition, the form includes questions inquiring r.Kraiv i5iJy f whether the registrant believes he qualifies for a hardship deferment, for status as a conscientious objector, for a surviving son exemption, or for other Selective Service deferments and exemptions. Finally, every registrant must list a place oi permanent residence, as well as a current mailing address. The draft board serving his permanent residence will be the Mailbox Improvement Week May 15-20 The week of May 15-20 has been designated as "Mailbox Improvement Week" a traditional observance for generations, particularly in rural areas ana smaller com munities, which contribute nationally to environmental quality, Postmaster Frank Ramsey, announced today. Mailbox Improvement Week serves as a signal for special community efforts to encourage repairing, painting and other improvements in the security and appearance of 18.5 million rural and suburban curbline boxes In many communities, led by the postmaster, civic groups, press and municipal govern ment often join in this campaign ! registrant's permanent draft board, regardless of where he registers.

The improvement effort is important because more than 70 million individuals receive their mail through rural type mailboxes, which is a far cry from the improvised receptacle used by the country dwellers in ihe early years, when old tin cans nailed to trees served the purpose as mailboxes. Many Postal customers now use the rural type mailbox as a frontal piece in a bed of flowers, or mount the boxes on elaborate posts containing designs of animals, birds, flowers and so forth, the postmaster added. Miracle On The Land' Mars Hill Wednesday On Wednesday night, May 1 . produced enough to feed they have time to devek at 8p m., the people of Madi.011 County and the surrounding area will have the opportunity to witness a most specatcular slide presentation This presentation is entitled "Miracle on the I.and." The event is made possible through the cooperation of the Madison County Agricultural Extension Office and Mars Hill College and will take place in Moore Auditorium on the Mars Hill Campus. The intelligence of man is a creation of nature and is an integral part of ecology. Man's effect on his environment, good or bad, is an important element in the scheme of ecology. This is the theme of a new three-screen presentation of Stauffer Chemical Company Entitled "Miracle on the I.and," the Stauffer presen tation sketches the profound progress of agriculture during the past 25 years. It notes that this progress is due, in no small measure, to the use of a new generation of farm chemicals. Ever since the idea of plan ting a seed to grow food first occurred to primitive man, farmer diave been battling the adverse forces of nature. The advent of pesticides, for the first time, gave man an ad vantage in his endless war against weeds and bugs which have destroyed his food crops; for the first time insecticides gave him an edge in battling the insect-borne diseases that had destroyed or blighted the lives and hopes of millions. Em ployed to save lives, these chemicals enabled men to live in idgnity and to triumph over the constant spectre of star vation. Man lives better today than ever before. Once most of a man's time, effort and energy was expended in gathering the day's supply of food. During the 1860's, one American farmer Tenant House On Grapevin Destroyed The 4-room, one so try house belonging to Hensley was com destroyed by fire T morning. The structure, in the Grapevine sectio county, was vacant and the fire is undeterminef The Marshall responded but could d the house. 1 Mrsf 1 himself and three other people. Today he feeds more than forty- five others with a far greater variety and better quality food and fiber. Modem society exists because men have the time to educate themselves and to specialize. They are freed from the necessity of doing their own hunting and growing of food, 4 Injured In Collision Four people were injured i a head-on collision Saturday night about four miles south of here on U. S. 25-70, according to the State Highway Patrol. Trooper D. J. Good said a car driven by Plummer Boyd, 48, of Walnut was traveling north on the highway about 10:30 p. m. when it crossed over the center line and struck another vehicle driven by Eugene Saylor, 27, of Americus, Ga. Good said Boyd and Saylor, along with Saylor 's two-year-old daughter, Cathey, and a woman identified as Saylor's mother-in-law, were all taken to Memorial Mission Hoital. Boyd was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and driving on the wrong side of the road, ac cording to Good, who said both cars were demolished in the accident. Those injured in the Saylor car received dispensary treatment, but Boyd, admitted to the hospital, was reported ki fair condition. Divers Halt Hunt For Penland After a second day of fruitless searching, rescue personnel . f-rT Jr- .iii rwHn they have time to develop the good life. This is the debt that society owes the man in agriculture. Affluence and increasing populations have created vast new problems. There are those who argue that salvation lies in turning back, in stopping many those things which characterize our civilization. "Miracle of the I .and" points up the fact that the solution, and real hope for the future, is not destruction of the American standard of living but for man to recognize his intelligent self-interest In the environment and to apply his science and technology ac cordingly. The presentation relates how Stauffer research constantly seeks new and better compounds for agriculture and how the Stauffer organization carries the fruits of this research into the field to the farmer. The story of "Mirade on the land" is told on three screens set side by side for super wide screen effect ; panoramas cover all three screens and alternate with single views, there are over 400 slides in three projectors, all controlled by an electronic programmer. The original music score, sound effects and narration augment the visual presentation. See it. Hear it. Enjoy tt..and learn the promise of agriculture to our civilization. Public In vited.
