Her 4-H Club work is a delight, and so far has paid her dividends, in both cash, and experience. She lecommends 4-H Club work for any young person. Peggy's ambition is to win a college scholarship, and pursue her musical education, and then enter the field of teaching. "I am going to college whether 1 get the scholarship or not,"' she said, "but it would help out a lot. And I guess I can get one by work ing hard etuiugh -and that is just w hat 1 intend to do." From past records, and knowing Peggy's determination to win. no matter how many odds are against her. we would say she will win again. Here is notice to all com petitors, if Peggy is in the contest, you had better watch out. She's a worker. Just ask her teacher, Mis Katherine Kirkpatrick.

This was the final survey that will be made before actual con 4niction begins. For WaynesviMe High School, the committee recommended the con struction of new rooms for science, shopwork. home economics, and a cafeteria, "and a gymnasium if funds are available." Bethel would get a building of 18 to 20 classrooms, depending on whither the available funds would cover the construction of that many. In brief, the recommendations were to divide the state funds ap proximately equally between Way posville and Met hoi. In general, the committee found the rural ;hooL. well-designed, well-built, well-lighted, and situat ed on excellent locations. Mt. Stirling was declared ade quate for the number of students it accomodates, while Cataloochee was not included in the survey be caie eit is a private school. On the state survey committee with Mr Uueck were Claude Grigg, superintendent of Albermarle city schools; .1. P. Sifford. Stanley County schools superintendent; and State Senator L. B.

A squad of National Guardsmen of the Waynesville Heavy Tank Company following the address fired the volleys, then the bugler sounded taps, in a salute to the dead of all America's wars, as the services ended.

Then he continued: "But beneath this outward dem onstration, there are emotions and memories that shall remain as long as life shall last. "We come today to clean the moss from our memory of those who have fallen, and with our chis els to renew the half-defaced in scriptions with which we once praised the brave deeds of these valiant heroes who now lie sleep ing in well-kept plots and ceme teries throughout the world. "We come to trim the beacon licbt that it might flash a warn ing to future generations that war is costly and cruel and deadly. Paving respect to those who had lost sons in the wars he said: "These Gold Star mothers, to whom this service is dedicated, do not need an Ernest Hemingway to remind them that 'any man's death diminishes me'. "The bells are tolling today, not only for the dead, but for the liv ing the living who gave sons and husbands, brothers and fathers that the bells of liberty and free dom might ring out more clearly.
