-' : SEEMS GROUND HOG RIGHT S0 FAR?
" Raleigh - "We'll have another three or four
weeks of winter driving hazards according to what
our friend Mr, Groundhog predicted on February 2,
"Motor Vehicles Commissioner Edward Scheidt de-
dared this week :
i "Without a shadow of doubt- there'll be some
rough days and nights - weatherwise - for the
drivers of motor vehicles all through February and
perhaps into March, "he warned.
' The vehicles official added, the amount of day
light is perceptibly a bit longer now than a few
weeks ago, but still much of our driving is done dur
ing hours of darkness. When bad weather is com
bined with darkness, visibility is reduced for driv
ers. This means that the
, alert physically and mentally, watching constantly
for hazards that might elude him. It also means
keeping windshield wipers in the best possible oper
ating condition. Wiper blades that streak are a
threat to safety."
Commenting on the use of "fog lamps," the
commissioner said such lamps should be used spar
ingly. They should not be ued in lieu of headlinghts
unless absolutely necessary in case of rain, snow or
fog - or in other emergency conditions like dust
storms.
Concerning inadequate traction, Scheidt had
u- this to say:
"Traction is tricky on slippery pavement. No
one yet has improved on the simple rule, slow down.
A driver has just got to reduce his speed on icy high
ways if he wants to feel safe and if he wants to be
safe. Even those who have managed to get through
the- winter this far without a skid accident had
"ibetter Watch -themselves pretiy 'carefully - asfweli
aa watching out for the mistakes on the part ofother
drivers or pedestrians."
1 Scheidt concluded, "temperatures are starting
to climb some days now, but chances are there will
i still be many below freezing days ahead, and it's
important to bear in mind that ice gets more slip
pery as the temperature rises."

SAYS
DEAR MISTER EDITOR:
I see by the paper where Sec-
retary of Agriculture Benson says
the Lord is on his side in his
squabbles with the farmers. I ain't
never took sides in this controversy
between Benson and the farmers,
but if he's quoted correct, I got to
say a few words about this state
ment. It's funny how politics work on
sellers that git In office. When they
gft pushed up in a corner, they
aH claim partnership with the Lord.
1 recall a few years ago, when a
JUger down in a small town ia
Alabama got elected Mayor, the
JBaptist called a meeting and field
prayer service fer the town. This
aYfiars name waa Rush Burton, and
aan ha beard about the prayer

From years of observation, I

Judging from thesjresent price
of farm produce, thefarmers can't
claim that everything about Sec
retary Benson is bad. Fer instant,
Ed Doolittle said he went to town
yesterday and paid 70 cent fer a

of corn. Ed said that if te efem

combination iof heart defects: is the
prize In a race between screntlfic
research and 'death;' She is'' iaura
Jean, daughter of Mr. and Mrfc J.
E. Lambert of Route one, Hickory:
who was born with . three serious
heart abnormalities: tricuspid atre
sia and interatrial and intervent
ricular septal' defects. 1 .'
Modern surgery could handle the
latter conditions, but a technique te
correct deformity of the tricuspid
value is still in the experimental
stage. The question today, is: will
Laura Jean live long enough for
medical research to perfect the ne
cessary operation? She has already
outlived by many months the time
originally given her by physicians.
In Layman's language, tricuspid
atresia is a contriction in the value
leading from the right auricle of
heart to the right ventricle. Blood
from all portions ef the body is
received in the right auricle, pum
ped throtigh the tricuspid value in
to the right ventricle and is then
pumped to the lungs for ozygen.
When the tricuspid value doesn't
work properly, blood backs' up in
the right . auricle and puts great
pressure on this chamber of the
heart In addition, not enough blood
gets to the lungs to be properly ox
ygenated. Complicating the picture further
are the -interatrial and interven
tricular septal defects, which are
unnatural openings between the
right and left sides of the heart
They allow the blood to pass back
and forth aimlessly, mixing ven
ous with arterial blood, gome of it

Mr. Sochacki says the law and
VA regulations permit these term
policyholders to convert as little as
$1,000 the first time nnd then any
amount thereafter they wish in
multiples of $500.
By converting $1,000 a year for 10
years, the ful amount w.ill be in

What this means to Laura J can ia
a defiqite' lack of growth and eome
cynosls, or "blueness" in the color
of her skin. As she tries to Increase
her activities. She may experience
shortness 'of breath, dizziness,
blackouts ami other symptoms, co
mmon kj cases UKe ners. in iaqi
tion, children With these defects
are more susceptible to infections
such as colds, flu, and pneumanla,
as well as other disease. ; v
Lura Jean, however, is lucky to
have a mother who has given her
careful attention. Mrs. Lambert la
a former laboratory technician and
office nurse and, at the first sign
of a cold or flight infection, she
kes Laura Jean to her physician,
V.. Dewitt Trivette, who gives her
proper treatment It fc believed that
this accounts for the fact that the
little girl has lived well beyond the
time thought possible. Most ether
children with defects like hers die
within a year of birth.
Laura Jena's chances for life
lie entirely in the hands of heart
esearchers. She Is not the only
child involved in this race against
time for corrective measures to be
found that will restore them to
health and normal life expectancy.
Much of this research is financed
directly through funds raised, dur
ing the annual Heart Fund - drive
conducted by the American Heart
Association through its state affi
liates and their chapters. This pro
vides an opportunity for everyone
to make contributions that will buy
months, years, even lifetimes for
children whose conditions today
mark them "hopeless".
Of Converting Gl
dividends may be used in the pro
cess to reduce the cash outlay to
the policyholder at the time of con
versation, he adds.
The decision to convert Is for
each policyholder to make based
on his need for present and future
lfe insurance, his ability to pay
premiums and his family status,
Sochacki says.
In some cases, the term insurance
is preferable, Sochacki adds. In
others, permanent plans are indi
cated. Permanent plan policies available
to World War 11 term policyholders
who wish to convert under this
easy-stage method are ordinary

farmers aint got nothing more to
worry them than the question of
which is the stubbornest, a woman
or a mule.
And speaking of farmers, 'they
ain't never agreed on nothing since
the plow was invented. They was
even arguing the other night about
when Dog Days is. They had'em
all the way from July to September.
Of course, it aint Important no
more, and as thing! Is going now In
the world It gits less important all
the time. In another six months

Soobacki adds that permanent

include - a loan value, . a ' cash

will keep a policy In force auto

Term policies, on the other hand,
provide only insurance against
