He received his early education
in the Warsaw High School and at

of law under ' Dr. Needham . Y.
Gulley who has been the teacher
and inspiration to hundreds of
worthy lawyers in our State. He
was soon licensed to practice and
opened an office In Kenansville
where he lived and practiced his
profession for the balance of his
life. He became one of the best
known lawyers in this section of
the State and 1 at various times
Mng the course of his legal
er he was associated in part-

For many years, as regularly as

WHAT ARE THE FACTS
t about ''v'v:
7POLIMYELITIS?
Bulletin by State Board of Health
WHAT IS POLIOMYELITIS t
it ia an unite svstemic disease,
caused by a specific filterable vi
rus, occurring both in epidemics
and in single cases. An attack may
result in paralysis of. one or more
groups of muscles. As far as is
known, one attack usually gives
immunity for life. Paralysis does
not always result from an attack,
for there may be complete recov
ery or jpnly a weakening of the
TniiKriM affected. Probably more
than 80 per cent of cases do not
result in paralysis; in fact, some of
them are so mild that unless there
is an unusual number-of cases of
th disease in a community, the
diagnosis is often overlooked.
Poliomyelitis is chiefly a dis
ease of childhood, with about 50
tier cent of cases occurring in
children under five years of age;
however, cases in adults do occur.
It is more prevalent in the summer
months, and , with the coming of
cold weather any existing epidemic
occasionally . found . In the same
usuallv stoDs. Second cases are
household and the disease -can be
prevalent in rural communities
and in cities. The rich and poor
alike are affected.
how is rr spread? :
There are many theories as to
the mode of spread of the virus
from person to person. The virus
is eliminated from the body of the
patient with the discharges from
the nose and throat and bowel.
Personal contact, droplets thrown
into the air by coughing, sneez
ing or talking, food, milk or other
substances soiled with human ex
cretions may spread the virus. It
is not known how active a role in
sects "iplay to the spread of, the
disease, bat files trapped in epi
demic areas have been shown to
carry the virus.'
The interval or time oetween ex
posure and onset or symptoms
varies between three and eighteen
days, most commonly ten to twelve
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS T
The onset is usually abrupt with
fever, often times with nausea
and vomiting, drowsiness, irrita
bility, stiffness of the neck, and
occasionally pain ana tenderness
of the extremities. These symp
toms are usually present for three
or four days before any signs of
paralysis develop. The paralysis
Involves more commonly legs and
arms, and less commonly the mus
cles of respiration and the muscles
of the face and eyes. In the mild
er cases there may be no perma
nent paralysis, . but merely some
loss of muscular function. When

may be followed by rapid improve
ment HOW IS IT CONTROLLED T
The control of this disease in
cludes the following:
(aj tarty recognition of the dis
ease followed by immediate
. reporting to the health de
partment, r
(b) Placarding the premises to
. warn others of its presence.
. (c) Isolation of the patient pre
ferably m a hospital and
; , r keeping from' the sick room
, . all except necessary atten-
, .-. aants. ,
(a) quarantine of all persons
on the premises, - until a
' written permit to leave has
: been granted by the local
health officer.
; (e) Disinfection during the
course of the disease under
, . the direction of the atten
ding physician: v 1
Discharges from the . nose ' and
throat should be collected on paper
or clean bits of cloth and immed
iately burned. Bowel discharges
should be disinfected with boiling
water or chemicals. Bed linens
and towels should be put ia a dis
infectant solution and later boiled.
Dishes should be set aside for the
use of the patient only, and should
be properly sterilized with boiling
water before - they are removed
from -the sick room. Attendants
should carefully wash their hands
before leaving " the sick room.
Washable gowns should be worn
while caring for the patient and
should be removed just prior to
leaving the sick room. Terminal
disinfection should be carried out
as outlined by the attending phy
sician or health officer. , .
(f) Complete prohibition ., of
travel on common carriers by
' persons who are ill with the
disease or has been' in con
tact with a case. V '"'

WHAT OTHER PRECAUTIONS
CAN BE TAKEN T
When poliomyelitis Is imduiy
prevalent in any section, young
children should avoid any crowds
whether at Sunday- Schooi,Thurch;
day schools, picnics, theatres, eta
Swimming pools may be a
source of danger when poliomye
litis cases are present in the com
munity. .
Children should not visit omer
children who are sick. -,
-This advice also should be fol
lowed, by adults, for it may be
that by coming in contact with a
source of infection and thus pos
sibly becoming a temorary carrier,
that they play a part in the spread
of the disease, j ,-',( ? '

With a record-breaking bonansa
predicted, 14 eastern North Caro
hm bright belt tobacco markets
opened their sales Monday with
an estimated 6,000,000 pound on
thp floors.
The war food administration
and the state agricultural depart
ment said the crop would probably
exceed all others since 1939 with
the -income the highest since 1919.
Total acreage in- the belt was
increased by 16 per cent over last
year and is expected to reach 344,-24-1,000
pounds.
Tke danger of a severe drought
waa averted when general rain
fell in early July and August, in
dicating also that weight and
qbality will also be considerably
than fast year.
. The WFA said sales probably
would not reach' their peak during
the first, three, weeks of marketing
because much of the crop k two
to three weeks later laan last
year. Much of the crop remains to
be harvested because of a short
age of manpower.

PLAN TO ENLARGE
ENGINEERING SCHOOL
ATSTATE COLLEGE
To Train Engineers
for Growing Industrial
Development in N. C
Proposal to enlarge the Stats
college school - of engineering to
train an adequate number of en
gineers for North Carolina's
growing industrial development
in view of the fact that many in
dustries are moving to tbe state,
I where they can find "better cli
I matic conditions and a more desi-
rjLhla Ishnr TOrlrt"nr nut-lin
ed this week by Acting Dean L.
a L. Vaughan, of the State College
scnooi 01 engineering.
Expressing the conviction that
the state's industrial future is tied
up with the progress of engineer
ing education at State college,
Governor Broughton last spring
appointed an advisory committee
for the expansion of the school.
Full cooperation of several of the
nation's top-flight -executives , of
industry was pledged to the gov
ernor at the first meeting of the
committee on I'.nj 21 at the col-
no. 9
Still confronted with over 1,000 ,
"leftover" applications ; which
could not be filled out of August's
inadequate passenger car tire
quota, WP&RB officials declared .
that September's limited quota . .
rpduced over 20 percent . means
that tire certificates can be Issued
in eeneral only to motorists at.
the top of the list of eliglbles.
Doctors, nurses, police, war
workers and others of prime im
portance to the war effort, will,
of necessity, be given tires in pref
erence to B and C ration holders
who drive for less essential uses,
Chairman Jones said.
The situation has been made
more serious by the misconception -of
B and C ration holders that
the "lid is off." and that tires are "
available. '
The situation is not confined to .
this county is evident from a sum-,
mary for the eight states In the
Southeast showing nearly 150,000
unfilled applications. The flood of
applications evidently , resulted
from OPA's action in May of may
king all B and C ration holders
eligible for Grade 1 tires.
Facts are that the local Board
must Continue to value each appli
cation as to need of the tire in
terms of necessity to the war ef
fort and in view ol tire quotas.
At present the Board here will
scarcely be able to fill acute needs.
