The 175 members of the Hay
wood County out-of-state farm tour
i made their first stop in New Eng
land this noon when they had lunch
at Wallingford, Conn.
I
They started out this morning
at 5 o'clock with a visit to New
York City's famous Vegetable
Market where the many varieties
and huge quantities were beyond
anything even Haywood County
j farmers are used to seeing. Name
the vegetable and it was at the
Market, which constantly receives
fresh supplies from all over the
country. Truck produce from the
South was there, much of which
made the trip in refrigerated trucks
from southern produce markets.
A tour of the city followed, and
many Haywood people witnessed
for the first time many of the
famous sights they had heard about
all their lives: Fruit Market, Wall
I Street, Chinatown, the harbor and
: others.
From New York the four-bus
caravan came directly to Connecti
cut.
Sunday started with breakfast at
Staunton, Va., with a visit to Wash
ington. D. C. the big event of the
morning. A brief stop was made at
Lurav, Va.. before pulling into the
nation's capitol. An hour tour of
Washington was conducted by Jack
Lynn, a former Haywood farm
agent, and now a representative,
of the American Farm Bureau.
Lunch was prepared at Howard
Johnson's Kestaurant in Baltimore,
Md.. which is only a short distance
from Washington. The afternoon
was spent on the highway, includ
ing the Pennsylvania Turnpike, as
the tour sped toward New York
City, destination for the night.

on citizens to conserve water.
If the voluntary conservation

G. C. Ferguson, town manager,

"We hope that we can get by

Mr. Ferguson said.
"We feel that once the people
realize the critical situation, and
what we face, that everyone will J

"Should this fail, then we will Q

Dr. Edgar H. Nea.se of Charlotte
and the Rev. James W Sells of
Atlanta were named executive sec
retaries of thp Southeastern Juris
dictional Council of the Methodist
Church last week, replacing retir
ing Dr. William F. Quillian of At
lapta.
Dr. Quitlian has held the post
since it was created eight years
ago and the council commended
him for his "wise guidance in es
tablishing the work of the council
on an even keel."
Sells will supervise work tn the
radio and television fields, ^hort
term school, rural church work,
church extension and co-operation
with the general and jurisdictional
boards.
One i of Dr. Nease's primary
duties will be supervision of the
program at Lake Junaluska.
According to Dr. Elmer T Clark,
chairman of the Assembly commit
tee on program and publicity, the
Board of Trustees agreed three
years ago to separate the functions
of the program and publicity from
the business and grounds manage
ment in order to lighten the bur
den of the superintendent of the
Assembly. It is expected that Dr.
Nease will work with the cornmit
t?-e on program and publicity in
planning the summer program for
Lake Junaluska and will operate it
during the summer months. He
will probably move his headquar
ters from Atlanta to Lake Junalus
ka during the spring and summer
months.
If this plan is carried out. Dr.
Clark states that it will relieve
Dr. H. G. Allen, superintendent of
the Assembly, of some of his bur
dens which are too heavy and di
verse for ono man. The arrange
ment will more closely integrate
the Lake Junaluska Assembly with
the total work of the Jurisdiction.
Dr. Nease is at present uiperin
tendent of the Charlotte district
