It was a (very hot ntordlng and X was afraid she would renig on me and not go, tout I iwas very nappy to find her waiting and raring to go when I got to Keaansville. - Mrs. C K Hulbert was pre paring peaches to ean. They gave each of us one and it was deli cious. Dora , Lee Branch, a teacher 1 the Kenansvllle colored school toK? Becky she talked with her grand mother in Warsaw a few days ago. Her grandmother works in the post office there. Mrs. Rivers Winstead said she liked the Times very much. Mrs. Stanley Sanderson was real busy washing but gave us a few minutes of her time. We stopped at Mattie Grady's store. Mr. Dupree was pumping gas into the tank. While we were there some jet planes came over, but we were never able to see them It is hard for us to realize that they fly faster than sound and don't know just how to locate them. While riding down the Mt. Olive highway we saw W. C. Dixon sit- ting on his cart fixing a sling blade for a colored girl who was clean ing the church yard, we stopped and talked with them a minute. Further on down the road we stopped at a house and there seem-1 months old baby girl, Jewell, out ed to toe no one at home. Just as of the way so I could get in. Lit we were fixing to leave I noticed! tie Jewel was lying on a palet try an old colored lady sitting back1 ing to keep cool. Mrs. Beasley hadt in her kitchen making biscuit. She to go out in the yard to see Mr. was sitting right next to a wood Beasley ior a few minutes, and stove, and how she. could stand while she was gone the baby drop to with the weather as hot as it ped her rattler and couldn't get was.

We also talked to Roy Sander son and Mrs. Bly Sanderson. Mrs. Sanderson's daughter had a hot job Ironing. . At Jimmy Miller's home his wife told us he was down at the, corn crib. When we-got to the barn the children told us he was down in the potatoe field. We enjoyed the walk there because right near the house they had a pretty pond. It looked like It would be good for fishing. I know the children must enjoy it a lot When we cot to the potatoe field. he wasn't there, and we finally found hkn plowing his corn. He works on Mrs. Anna Str oud's farm, and it surely Was a neat looking farm.' :' , Mrs. Jessie Westtoaook had a nice looking home. We were about to decide to spend the afternoon with her 'because It was so cool there. Becky had a fit when we got to Mrs..C. H. Holland, Jr's home. She had five of the cutest little nun- pies. - M. . we also Chatted a bit with Mrs. Andrew Wilklnsi When we got to Mrs. Inez Pot. ter's home a little pig came run ning out to meet us. He started sniffing around our toes. I was ra ther worried for a minute, because naa on loeiess shoes, nut Mrs. Potter eased my mine when she told me he was a pet.She .had. reieed him en a bottle. .

They were caught as they ' were preparing to leave after fin ishing the day's operations at the 50 gallon copper still. Participating in the arrest were Sherifi Ralph Jones and deputies Perry Smith, Oscar Houston and Charles Nicholson. In Duplin I Wked -with Mrs. W W talked with Mr Wesfev ftaiw dersottWe atso spent a -few mlaI utes-.wim Mrs.- Herman Wlubnani Mrs. J. C. Stroud had quite a. few rows of bunch grapes, alsoj a phim and apple tree that were just loaded. By the time we got to Wesley Methodist church it was almost lunch time so we headed Old Betsy for Kenansvllle. On the way there we saw that they were moving the asphalt plant We didn't have time; to find out where they were mov ing it to. We went out to Mr. Grady's and! Becky's home where I enjoyed a delicious lunch and a nice visit. ' Little Margaret sang "Pop Goes the Weasle" for me and Becky played the piano. The morning trip was enough for Becky. It really was hot, but I had enjoyed her traveling with me a lot. After lunch I first stopped at 3. L. Farrior's. Then I went on to A. D. Kornegay's home. Silas Tucker was sitting on the porch trying to get cooli On my next few slops I talked to D. H. Jones B. D. Grady and Thelma Grady. Mrs. Ben Grady was trying to get f her washing out while her chil- ' dren were at Bible school. At Mrs. Eugene Beasley's home sne naa to move her little six her the rattler and play with her ior a minute. When I did, I was very shocked to see that she was; blind. When Mrs. Beasley came: . back in she told me that the baby was born blind and that there Is; nothing that can be done about it. according to specialist at Duke hos- pital. After I talked with Mrs. Bea- ' sley I didn't feel as upset about It because she was in such high api rits. She said she thought there were many things worse than be ing blind, so she has great hopes ' for little Jewel's future. I think Mrs. Beasley Is one of the most attractive people I have met on all my tours. I guess the reason I feel like that Is because she does.' n't feel sorry for herself like most -people would. She knows she has done all that can be done, so she Is going to make her child happy as she is. - t r I talked with Mrs.' Walter Her ring, Jr., over at their store. 1 also visited with Ada Kevell, Mrs. C.

When I left Millie's house I was -in the edge of Warsaw so decided to go in and get me something cool to drink. Just before I got to the Shell Station, my notes I had been taking all day blew out of the window so I had to atoo the car and run back to get them.
