The roll was called by the secre tary, Alberta Green, and there were 76 present. Th theme for 4-H Club mem bers Is Work, Save and Serve. Discussions on How Young People Can Help on the Farm, were given by Dorothy Watson, Willa Jo Wat son, Claudia Mae Rogers, and R. L. Pruitt. There was also a dis cussion on Clothes Conservation. They choose their slogan for buy ing bonds, "A stamp a day will keep the Japs away." Miss Margaret Martin, County Demonstration Agent, gave out the 1944 Record Books. A report was given on the 4-H Health Contest held a few weeks ago. June Edwards and Ollie Mae MRS.

POPULAR - One of the most popular newspaper women in Ral eigh now is Mrs. Constance Gar vey, formerly of Ashe, Alleghany and Wilkes counties. Coming to Raleigh completely unannounced last fall, Mrs. Gar vey was faced with the difficulty of forming new contacts in the var ious state offices which she was assigned to cover. Raleigh is sup posed to represent the entire State, and probably does, but for some reason most of the officeholders here are from Eastern North Car olina, the outstanding exception being Gwyn Price, of the Clifton community in Ashe county, head of the REA program in North Carolina. The mother of a beautiful daugh ter and two boys in the armed ser vice. Mrs. Garvev finds aee in her favor, for Raleigh politicians now art in the main around 45 years of age. Not completely lacking in political background, Mrs. Garvey is a decided asset to the Raloigh Times, or so says her boss, John Park, publisher. RUMORS There are rumors here to the effect that Mrs. W. T. Bost, who has tendered her resig nation as State Commissioner of Clmrities and Public Welfare, will be asked to head the women's di vision of Gregg Cherry's guberna torial campaign organization. There isn't much chance she will accept. TEST FARM The fact that the State has purchased a test farm in Ashe county doe not mean that it interest in buying another farm in Western North Carolina has died. The Ashe station doon not replace the one sold to the Govern ment at Swannanoa. A farm to replace the Swannanoa farm will bo bought in the Henderson county area. If you know of a good, big, rich farm in that section for sale, you would be doing the State De partment of Agriculture a big fa vor by letting them know about it F". K.

Now last week the pastor reported that when Ferrell was baptized in Lake Waccamaw several years ago, he didn't allow himself to be lifted back on the bank like the other boys instead, he pulled off his shirt and went swimming out like a duck. Though the pastor thought this an odd thing to do, the lad was taken into the church anyhow. Ferrell was convicted in two differ ent couits of the crime, was found sane by two reputable physchiat rists, was put to death in a little less than 10 minutes.

PROLARMON RECTAL SMITH DRUG STOJLK RESIGNATIONS There is such a big turn-over in the per sonnel of the various State depart ments that it is virtually impos sible to keep track of them. One of the best fellows ever to work in Raleigh Walter Crawford, of Wavnesville has resigned his po sition as attorney for the N. C. Burial Association to return to private practice in his home town. Claude Abernathv. director of the association, said last week that he hns nobody in mind to succeed Crawford, who incidentally, is an older brother of Freddie Crawford, first North Carolina Ail-American footballer. If at any time, Walter Crawford wants to return to Ral eigh, he can do it - nt a good sal ary, to. HOME Miss Kay Harrison, sec retary of the Test Farms division of the State Department of Agri culture since January, 1937, will return to her home in Currituck county around March 1. FEATURE The Biblical Re corder, which now has a circulation of around 23,000, will this week feature a 1,000-word article on Meredith College's plan for ex pansion. BLYTHE There was a report in Raleigh early this week that Le Gette Blythe, author of Marshall Ney stories and conductor of the Charlotte Observer book page, will help Major Cherry with his publicity. CONVENTION Raleigh and Winston-Salem are engaged in a friendly battle regarding the Na tional Grange convention which will be held in North Carolina in November. Both want it. Grange officials will decide Saturday. The city getting the convention will have to raise $3,000 for entertain ment, etc. It looks now as if the gathering will go to W. S., but Ral eigh is trying hard. SWIMMER It would be inter esting to make a study .of the habits and personalities of the men who have been put to death by the State during the past decade. It is the duty of various Raleigh re porters (to witness the asphyxia tions of these criminals. Somehow the public seems to get a sadistic pleasure from reading the reports of the killings. Last Friday a 25-year-old white man from Columbus county weigh ing 240 pounds and every inch a fine looking specimen of humanity was put to death for the alleged rape of his eight-year-old step daughter. A group of Columbus folks, in cluding Andrew Ferrell's former pastor, appeared before Governor Broughton to request a reconsider ation of the case.
