The one aim of the organizatin is to h.Ac a happy, thriving town. The modern t';,aiiiber of Commerce is one of their first to te the needs of a community, and as oiin klv is possible, with available funds, eoriect those needs.

It was a constant tiu,":!e . . . but he never let up. In due course of time, another boom made visit and this man sold his rejuvenated oui-e for a nice profit. The story of. the other man is exactly the pposite. He curled up and figuratively died . hen he found how he had been fooled in his mi chase . . . and he completely lost interest, lis home became simply a house . . . and a orv poor one at that . . . and the congenial ty of his family bore the brunt of his dis satisfaction. He just couldn't "take it" and absolutely refused to take his medicine like a man. When the boom came around his way, his house was a shambles and of no value to anyone . . . including himself. So . . . if the peach you thought you were buying turns out to be a lemon, take it in its stride. Lemons needn't be thrown away; they make awfully good pies and lemonade. Highway Center Lines The State Highway Department has just finished putting down a white center line on the newly re-surfaced highway from here to Canton. The white line will be carried on out Highway 19-A to Soco Gap, which is also getting a new surface up the mountain. The white lines in the center of highways are one of the best investments the highway department can make. There have been many a life saved by the center line, espe cially is this true during foggy, or rainy weather. We trust the department goes still further and pots down the yellow caution line where The presence -of these two caution lines passing is dangerous. make motorists aware of the dangers on the highways, and enables drivers who are trav eling the road for the first tiro to drive safer. A condition that cannot be driven home to North Carolina too frequently is the poor showing which Tarheelia makes in milk pro duction and consumption. While this deficiency, affecting both our economy and our health, has been stressed many times, it was the reiteration by Frank H. Jeter, State College agriculture editor, before a Raleigh civic club which currently caught our attention. Mr. Jeter, after noting that only 30 percent of North Carolina farm land is used in production of its great cash crops of tobacco, cotton and peanuLi, urged that the remaining 70 percent go into pro duction of other commodities and crops which are needed to balance our agricultural program. It was in this connectin that Mr. Jeter urged the development of a livestock indus try, which of course ramified out into cattle raising, feed productin and dairying. As for this third field the figures show that 20 per cent of the milk which North Carolinians are1 now drinking has to be brought in from other states and that average consumption in the Old North State is only half the national average. Here we have a pyramided defici-; ency which must show the possibilities for dairying development in our midst. The average North Carolinian consumes less than half the milk the average American consumes f and yet. with this under-consumptin, 20 per j cent of what he consumes has to be imported.

OFFICIALS WARN WASHINGTON More than $15,000,000 worth of grain foods are destroyed by pantry pests in American homes annually. The government urges housewives tn war 'on them. If housewives everywhere got after these bugs, their united ef fort would save enough food to help pull many starving people through a crisis. And saving food would save them money. Pantry pests are the bugs that get into cereals, flour, meal, corn starch, crackers, breakfast foods. macaroni and spaghetti.

Looking Back Over The Years 15 YEARS AGO Kirch foff makes experiments with several acres of asters in ad dition to 40 acres of gladioli. pitals for routine ailments are being treated in the institutions rather than in their homes, the nurses and doctors are' becoming morje acutely aware of the adverse effects which tiresome visiting has on the condition of the patient. "The psychological effects which friendly visits to the sick have are definite and valu able. High morale contributes a great deal to the physical recovery of those who are not well. Good visitors, however, follow cer tain rules of behavior. They cooperate with whatever system of visiting the hospital em ploys. They limit their visits to the specified time, abide strictly by the visiting hours, are cheerful but quiet, and avoid discussing per sonal ailments or the ills of other patients. They visit the patient for the purpose of cheering him up and reminding him that he is missed. They are mindful, first and fore most, of the patient's welfare, and not of their own desire to visit, to chat, and pass an afternoon or evening. "Hospitals today are big business enter prises. But in addition to being run under business-like conditions, they must be oper ated humanely. The welfare of their pa tients is their chief concern. Yet they do not wish to offend the persons visiting their pa tients. It is the duty of those who call on the sick to abide by the rules. Where sickness is concerned, the doctor knows best." The Haywood Hospital has adopted these visiting hours 2 to 4 p. m. and 7 to 8 p. m. These hours were adopted for the sake of th patients and their wellbeing. Rotary Scouts.
