considers the Golden Weed
bration the'most important event
H|^|^^|i8t year. The closing, of
t^g? tobacco market last September
wee equivalent to a decisively drawn
?little-front, with?"They shall not
pass"?as the battle-cry. The re
opening was identical to a great vic
tory won in behalf of Humanity.
There was economic warfare, with all
qf the attendant wreckage of the
masses. The rise of tobacco prices
marked the turning point of the tide
qf battle, and real recovery for this
section.
? Once more men could work, and
feel that they might share the fruits
of their toil, and that their women
and children would not be the vica
rious sacrifice to unbalanced profits.
Therefore, being a patriotic unit,
mindful of human rights, we are
gratified to record our part in the
tobacco program as the most signif
icant and far-reaching activity dur
ing the past year, not forgetting our
contribution to the swimming pool,
the library, and the planting of trees
?all of which are salient services
in what our beloved President Roose
velt designates as a "Building Era"
?building, we hope, for a stauncher
"Ship of State" and more "Stately
Mansions" for the soul of Human
ity!
As the finest example of love for
the Farmville community, we would
like to call attention to the beautiful
property of Miss Tabitha De Visconti
on Main Street, willed by her to the
Major May chapter, to be used event
ually for a Community Centre. This
will be the first of its kind in North
Carolina. The announcement was
made at the Flag Day meeting, and
will go down in the Chapter History
as its most impressive and outstand

ing the year, based on membership,
was presented to this organization at
the state meeting at Wrightsville.
