i a peaceful person. I keep my temper In the face ox - "'""on. Laughter teems a stronger weapon than a sharp i l...e quarreling or fussing. But there are time when I , v i.en I see red, get hot under the collar. It doesnt happen ; 4 it is not personal. But when I get roused up at they say, . i r.-.ady to stand up and fight. '. '' .- -t ' sme reason there have been too many articles in various i .'.nes and papers lately attacking the younger generation. I'm ted a read that and here I quote in essence, the young people of f have no sense of responsibility, they are lazy, they waste their Me time. Well, do you think that is a new indictment, something ..:;r to this youth of 1954? You can find exactly the same charges i articles written in 1900, in 1800, eVen in 1700. No doubt even the wise thought their sons and daughters were not all they ought to . Le. Tula blaming our children for our own sins has gone on since the t. sinning of time. It is nothing new. Doubtless our grandchildren will ( raise their hands in horror, at the so-called immorality and heedless-' ness of the generation that comes after them. A blanket indictment of the young people of today is a far worse reflection upon our own generation. If they are failing, it is because we have failed ourselves. If they are straying from the paths of righteousness, we showed them the way not by our words but by our : . actions. We. all learned long ago that the sins of the fathers are visited upon the children - but we shouldn't blame the children for , - our own mistakes. ' 1 T A ,,,. ' .... -.v. The-whole point is, of course, that we want them to succeed where we failed. AU those virtues we lack ourselves, we'd like . them to have. Our memories aro notoriously short when it comes to our own . shortcomings. We can and do get Awfully self-righteous and moral , when we have passed the age of temptation. Maybe we even resent that fact , v. . ' '' Here's a sample taken at random from a current magazine - Teen- - age wild parties shock community.' "Drinking prevalent at college - houseparty." My; my. How scandalizing Well, I grew up in the 20's ano5 I have a very good memory. Further' I have attended many 'college houseparties of this so-called wild generation of today as a . chaperone. I have yet to see one given anywhere that would begin to .' equal the wildness and drinking in those of the twenties. Necking, petting, or bundling, it hasn't changed mush as far as I can see for two hundred years. It's only a question of degree and the words you use. , ' - No, that' is one bill of goods I Vont buy. I believe that our young people today are more moral, more honest more truthful than we ' ' aver were. And they not us deserve the credit for it If we don't " attend church,' We cant blame them for not going.

Too often I have heard a kid accused of being impertinent for merely asking why. I sometimes think we must be afraid of their inquiring minds, afraid we will expose our ig i noranoe. y ' If this new generation has a fault it is one of omission rather than commission. It is said that this is the age of anxiety. Why shouldn't ' they be anxious? Born in a depression with their careers inevitably postponed by service in the armed forces, naturally they are be- h;s wildered. undpniripri TTaavAn knhwa tfiav will hava airniaMon mi ' the mess we have made for them.. If they seem reluctant to take -up the burden of responsibility, just consider the terrible responsibili- ty we nave put on their shoulders. What have we given them to help. ,t bear all the burdens, what wisdom, what strength? We can expand .' all our energy, our resources, our ingenuity for these young people and it still won't be enoueh to make uo to them for our failure to give them a better world, a hope for the future, to insure to them a legacy that is theirs by their inalienable right a legacy that was passed on to us, freedom from fear. t, . On a teen-age panel in recent weeks, one of the wise spokesmen v, fftr h1 0nnA1fitfnn mala a riofam.nl V. ,..-.. ,A ., oWnnU . : ing than any of the accusations heaped upon the heads of our youth. ' He said, that not only was his the age of anxiety but it could also : be called the age of apathy. Young people today, he said, lacked spirit lacked courage, lacked the will to stand up and fight. When he said that I was shocked, and sick at heart. I felt as if the youth f the world were looking straight at us, straight through us. They , were weighing us, and we were found wanting. Like all young ani mals they have been quick to sense the smell of fear in their Ciders. A fear that seems to grow stronger daily, a fear that hangs like a pall over the country, a fear has sapped the courage of many of our leading statesmen, our politicians, even our army. . No Wonder these kids shake their heads in bewilderment. They are not Stapid. They can see the evil shadow of a sinister senator weakening the very things that made our country great. They see , men judged without due process of law, bullied by a tyrant filled with a lust for power. And we do nothing. Let us face it honestly. We lack the guts to do anything. Worse," when a few courageous people dare raise their voices, we refuse to back them up. These young people look at the sordid spectacle of an honored and decorated general insulted and treated shamefully because he obeyed oders .from his superior officers. And the head of the army who dared back him up, who dared protest the shabby treatment of this man who had served his country honorably and well, slapped down by the administration, made to crawl and grovel in the dust before the feet, of a power-mad politician. And they turn, these young i people, and look at us to see what we are going to do about it. They read, too, and they listen. And they read and hear these ' words from the London Times. "Joe McCarthy was able to do what neither Burgoyne nor Lord Cornwallis could, he defeated the army of the United States." "What the Japanese and the legions of Hitler and Mussolini could not accomplish, this senator did, he made the U.S. Army back down." ,' Shades of our forefathers! We might use the words of William Vaughn Moody in protest. ; Was it for this our fathers kept the law? 'This crown shall crown their struggle and their ruth? Are we the mighty nation Milton saw Mewing its mighty youth? ' j . . O ye who lead ' Talra fcauulf u we nave really become so weak, so spineless that we are afraid to act now, then perhaps we should take down the Star Spangled Banner and run up a white flag. It is the flag of the free, and ought to , '- wave over the home of the brave. We owe it to our children and our V ebildrens children to take our stand. That yoke of the tyrant we 1 threw off is setting on our shoulders too heavily. It is time we threw " it off, time we showed a little courage and spunk, time we showed ur lads that we still have in us the spirit of liberty, time we proved we're not afraid to fight for it.

On the ocean ' dialect 23. River ' Poultry Housing The path of the busy poultry man is strewn with opportunities for mistakes.. Mistakes are made every day and they're costly," says R. S. Dearstyne, head of the department of poultry science at N. College.'1 . Dearstyne says one of the cost' liest of poultry management mis takes is made by the busy 'producer who "forgets" to clean and disinfect his brooder house between each group of chicks raised. "It is a well-established fact that worav eggs, coccidia and. certain disease-producing bacteria and vir- - n i m ' mr a -it i i i QUESTION: What can I do to avoid an outbreak of leucosis in my chickens? ANSWER: Leucosis is caused by a virus. There are some five different types affecting chickens in North Carolina. For control first of all, try to secure chicks from a source that is free or reasonably free of the disease. Then brood chicks away from old hens' and where there is no traffic from the old hen house to the brooder house or where traffic is not across. infected grounds and into the brooder house. The main thing is to try to minimize the possibility of infection the first 12 weeks of the chicks' life. If this is done, leucosis will not cause the losses that otherwise would result. Grow pullets on clean, green range. Place them in a laying house that has been thoroughly cleaned, disin fected and rebedded with six inches of sawdust, or preferably dry wood shavings. Have roosting racks en closed with wire so that birds do not have ready access to droppings. Then support these measures of sanitation with a rigid culling pro gram. The removal of all birds at the first sign of leucosis will retard the spread of the disease in the laying house. QUESTION: How can I recognize leucosis in my chickens? ANSWER: After birds have start edto lay notice their eyes as you cull out the non-producers. Grey eyes with an irregular shaped pupil should be culled. Do not mistake pearl eyes or blue eyes or off colored eyes for the ocular type of leucosis, but pay close attention to the shape of the pupil. If the out line of the pupil is very Irregular and begins to fade back into the iris of the eye, then this Is the be ginning of the ocular type of leucosis. It. Malt beverage IT. Period of time 19.

Following one group of chicks in a brooder house by an other without a thorough cleaning and disinfecting of the house and equipment invites trouble. . , "Overcrowding of houses is also common fault of many- poulty- men-JThere should be, at least 94 Sheep Farmers Average 118 A summary of 53 farm flocks of sheep in' 12 counties showed that the average farmer had a 119 per cent lamb crop, his ewes sheared 6H pounds of wool, returned him gross income of $23.90 and cost him $738 upkeep. A study of this survey shows that progress -is being made in some phases of sheep production, but other' important practices are being neglected. 70 per cent of these flock owners had small grain or other cover crops for winter grazing. 80 per cent fed ewes grain before lambing. 92 per cent fed grain after lambing, 76 per cent fed lugume or mixed hay. Only 30 per cent creep-fed lambs and only 35 per cent sold lambs in July. More lambs should be creep fed for a higher degree of finish and marketed earlier for greater net return. Zwes should be drenched 2 to 8 times per year to control internal parasites. Early May is best time to shear the sheep. 76 marketed lambs through coopers.' tive pools and 84 per cent marketed wool through wool pod Is for re duced marketing costs.

"An- ouier great error,' according -to Dearstyne, "is that of overheating chicks. The baby chicks is not a 'hot house' animal. Too little atten tion is given to temperature regula tion.
