Boosters eWf ; J -4 Dy joe ijosun The J. K. Boosters Club met at James Kenan High Schol last Thursday night with only a very few patrons of James Kenan pre sent. In fact only six attended Sam Godwin, Allen Draughan, Jr., Lott Kornegay, Joe Costin, Clarence . Warren, and Paul Pot ter all of Warsaw. At the present time only about fifty individuals have joined the Boosters Club. In other words out of about 6,000 in the school dis trict (Warsaw, Kenansville, Mag nolia) only forty individuals have ever attended a meeting. I know some of us will give a little to help and yet we just don't have time to attend a meet ing. Some very important busi ness was to come up at the meet ing but where were you . . Mr. Godwin reported to the few that the moving of the lights from the old Warsaw Field would cost about $1700.00. The contract has been let and the lights, new poles, etc will be up before too long. The club needs only about $200. and the lights will be paid for. iSK Godwin also reported that 1,000 bleachers have been purcha sed and are readyl to go up on the new field. And I, would like to say the club win have them paid for by the: fall. Most of the leg-work, and long hours of beg-, ging goes to Mr. Godwin for what has been done. ' The Boosters Club will hold a Work Day next Wednesday after noon at 2:00 p.m. Everybody that can possibly , come but to James Kenan and help erect the new bleachers . . . please come. Not long ago committees were appointed in the . school district to help carry the program. No report was made from Kenans ville or Magnolia, but it was re ported that about $1650.00 has been collected in the Warsaw dis trict Expanded Through More than 10 million bushels of grain storage capacity was placed on the Nation's iarms in the first quarter of 1959 a' sa result of ASCs storage facility loan program, ac cording to O.

' (Storage lacilljty. loans totaling more than $2,000W0 were nude during the ' January-March period to approximately 3,700 fanners, Holland said, In addition, 182 far mers borrowed a toal of $286,000 to flnanc emobil crop drying eq uipment to rusefa eonneotkM with storage faculties.,.

Thi is a most unique house in tt; v it was built from the foun d'! h.'4 up in exactly 15 days and ready to be moved into on the fifteenth day. Bob Herring, own ner of Herring's Handy Helpers, is most enthusiastic about this ac complishment. This modular com ponent house was made up in four foot sections and the fast construction was accomplished by a coordinated schedule, and gives "the' buyer the maximum quality : for a most reasonable price. V Herring stote? that this accom- ,j u : j i fmajiiiicut u a uioam ui ljic past three years. and the last year has been one of the hardest year's work that he has ever done in his life. After getting the idea, he had to travel quite a bit ob serving construction of all hou ses, then he started work on his idea and burned much midnight oil figuring the house out to the last minute detail. Today he can feel a great pride in the results of his work. Every angle was figured, the foundation laid, materials pla ced on the lot, each contractor knew his part in the program. The 4 ft. modular units had been made in Herring's Handy Hel- pers shop. Then the play started. With, four carpenters, the Joists were put down, the outside walls put up, and by the fourth day the roof was completed, the out side doors hung, disappearing stair installed and ,f work was started on the inside wall. On the seventh day the Inside parti tions, were being put-up (Jh this type' of house partitions are not put up until most of the inside is finished.) This left only eight days for the electricians, plum bers, heating men, cabinet ma- Succumbs At 82 John Lewis Carlton, 82 died late Monday - afternoon at his home near Warsaw after an ill ness of several years. Funeral services were held at the Johnson Baptist Church Wed nesday afternoon at 3:00 O'clock with .'the: services conducted by Rev. ; Eugene Hager assisted by Rev. Paul Mull and Rev.

Days Hose Hill kers, painters and tile layers to put the finishing touches. The wiring was done according to Me dallion specifications! Herring states that this fast building program is accompanied by organized coordination. Be fore the building is started each plan is worked out, each con tractor knows his time to be on the job, and each man fulfills his part of the building, program at the time he is scheduled to do the work. By all of the workers working together in this man ner, one doesn't hold the other's work 'urv Thus the expense of time in building is 'cut down without sacrificing the quality of building. Also with a planned schedule of this type, there is no wasted material. This is well demonstrated by the construc tion of the 1084 square foot home in only fifteen days, including all of the finishing touches which usually take Such a great amount of time. The house was built at a minimum cost, in the vici nity of $10,000 including the lot. Herring plans to cater to the building of houses between the cost of $7,500 to $12,00. At present he has three house plans available. K. Lockerman of Rose Hill was electrical contractor; D. G. Alderman of Rose Hill, plumbing contractor; J. A. Rackley, Wal lace heating; Joe King of Tea chey, painting; Smith Bros. Tile Company of Magnolia, ceramic tile; and John Rich of Magnolia, floor finisher. Thus Duplin County makes a nother stride in the building pro gram of the future.

According to R. S. Douglass, forestry specialist for the N. C Agricultural Extension Service, there are 18 million acres of fo rest land in the coastal plains of the South that could benefit from improved drainage. Drainage gives faster, more no ticeable results than any other thing that can be done to help produce more wood on wet areas, Douglass said. Large" companies are doing extensive ditching to . improve timber growing on then lands. With timber prices likely to remain at or above present pri ces, Douglass believes that even small timber owners should con sider increasing their timber pro duction through drainage. . . , - i , A 1 If 'it. if I I' v -.
