The way to teach the young idea to shoot is to give it target practice. People are not interested in our standing. It's in our understanding. Maybe would have been better off if Columbus hadn't discovered us. Doat wait for a break. It may be waiting at the next coiner for you. Darkness isnt a handicap to the blind and ignorance isn't to the fool. Hoping will bring a thing to pass if enough effort is added to the hop ing. Nature arranges things. When a i man gets too old to work much he is too old to want much. If some people were to let their light shine in the midst of a black out it couldn't be seen. Why count the chickens before they are 'hatched when yon can count them before the eggs are laid. Girls are now picking fruit says a headline, which isn't news. Eve started that practice a long time ago. 4-H Club Members Will Review Work North Carolina's, army of 100,000 4-H Club members will pause in the midst of their wartime." -activities during' the week of November 7-14 to- review 1942 achievements, an nounces L. R. Harrill, 4-H Club lead er for the N. C. State College Ex tension Service. V -■ r~ This period has been set aside && National 4-H Achievement Week so that club members the Nation over may take inventory of the busiest year of their lives. North Carolina's 4-H Club enroll ment jumped from 60,000 to 100,000 this year, largely as a result of Mobilization Week held during April.4 At the time, the farm boys and girls signed a Victory pledge, agree ing to do all in their power to help win the war. - Practically every member has con ducted a food production project, such as vegetables, peanuts, soy beans, poultry, dairy cattle and beef cattle. Largely as a result of the 4-H effort, North Carolina had more good gardens this year than at any! other time. Among their special wartime ac tivities, the club members have col lected .scrap metal, rubber, paper, and rags. Likewise, they have made substantial purchases of war bonds and stamps, as well as aiding in the sales drives. One of their most important con tributions, Harrill said, has been their replacing farm labor drained off by the war industries or Selec tive Service. In some counties, the reviewing of achievements will begin during the week of November 1. Special Ex erdses have been planned in all Achivement practice payments which may earned by any individual„ farm operating: in the Agricultural Con servation 'Program. Floyd declared^- that seeding of winter legumes and spreading like and phosphate an more than em- before this year due to the shortage of nitrogen fertilizers and the need for more pastures in the Pood for Freedom Program. "Nitrogen will be harder to ob tain next year than it was last spring, and we will have to provide as much as we can for our own by storing it in the soil with legume | crops," he said. Auto and Truck Owners Should Take Heed Now! (Continued From Page One) raiton holders, as the new regula tions require. Morever, he must show that his need for tire service is not due to his abuse and neglect of the tires he has. "The 'idle purchase plpn,' which applies to,passangftr type tires only, require the surrender of all such tires, regardless of condition, over five per vehicle prior to the granting after November 22- of any gasoline or tire ration to such vehicle owner. The tires shall be donated or sold through the Railway Express Agen cy, (not the American Railway Ex press) to the Defense Supplies Cor poration, a government agency, or if such tires are not usable, they may be donated or sold as scrap through a junk dealer. "The plan is voluntary until No vember 22. Used tire transfers were frozen' on October 1, which meana that shifting around of tires between two owners, even though in the same Uamily, or a donation of a tire to a friend since-that date, are all illegal transactions. -Used tires may now be transferred only to the Defense Supplies Corporation or if unusable, to a scrap dealer." > On and after November 22 no pas senger car owner may be granted a new or renewal gasoline ration or any tire ration unless he has regis tered his car's five remaining tires, and should not have surrendered his idle tires and registered his remain ing tires by'December 12 his local board shall recall his ration and suspend it until he has completed this registration in accordance with the regulations. It is to be remem bered that the Railway Express Agency on receiving a call will come for and deliver idle tires to one of the selected warehouses and give the owner a receipt, which will entitle the seller, should he sell rather than donate his tires, to the ceiling price, recently raised, for his tires. Size and condition of the tire will deter mine the price. Tubes may be sold or donated, but they do not have to be surrendered. unoer uieee rvgvumiumm uie 1 Al lowing are not required to torn in tires: (1) Persona owning commer cial vehicle# only (but a person own ing a passenger vehicle and a com mercial vehicle must smyender all over five passenger type tires per vehicle); (2- Persons owning off-the road equipment only; (3) Federal, state, local or fqrtfign governments; (4) Peal era reporting passenger type tires on OP A Form R-17; and (6) manufacturers reporting passenger type tire to the War Production Board, Mr. Hofler said it is to be noted alsa that if a car's rear wheels use a tire » size which will not fit the front wheels, the owner may re tain one spare of each size. In the new mileage rationing regu lations the local boards are given additional power in applying penal ties. For example, a person found guilty of driving at a greater speed than 35 miles m hour may be denied both gasoline and tin rations. If the board receives a record for a court conviction at speeding, whether in the or some other state, it need not give the offender a hearing but may recall his nation book, a esse of a complaint of speeding the board may give the alleged offender a hearing, and if it should find be was in fact guilty of the charge it may revoke and cancel his ration. After November 9, these penalty provisions will be applied by the boards and in the meantime the State Office of Price Administration will act upon, such complaints, Mr. Hofler strese book. •11 holders of 'A,' 'B^ or m«t register their tires *fth Mtoneh be obtained from , automobile dealers, or from local boards. The forms when completed may be mailed or presented to the' proper local board, and the registrant will receive a part of the form as his receipt This receipt, which will be the owner's tire inspection record, must be ex hibited whan applying in the future for gasoline or tire rations. "Owners of commercial vehicles who have received an ODT Certifi cate of War Necessity njust 'apply for future rations on or before No vember 22, or as soon thereafter as such Certificate has been received; Of course, no commercial vehicle may obtain any gasolne in exchange for coupons after the expiration date of its current ration. . "Automobile owners in the East ern area which is already subject to gasoline rationing should pay no at tention to the provisions for the new regulations requiring registration at schoolhouse sites for basic rations on November 12,^13, and 14, for this registration is designed for gasoline users hi the previously uiuatkmed are* only. "Eligibility for supplemental 'B' and 'C' rations is much the same in the mileage regulations as that set out. in thai current gasoline regula tions, with the notable exception that no 'C' ration will be gnarted for any travel for selling, services or com modities. All sales promotional work must be done with% 'B' ration of 470 miles of occupational driving per month. ' • "Motorcycle owners are not requir ed to surrender spare tires, and pro visions has been made to permit them to receive obsolete type tires. In iftpet respects the regulations af fecting motorcycles have been chang ed very little. "Eligibility classification for truck tires remain substantially unchang ed. The possef ion of an. ODT cer tificate of war neceftity does not necessarily mean that the applicant is eligible for tires. Eligibility must be established under the Office of Price Administration regulations. "The new mileage rationing pro gram is an organized effort to cope with the seriou& problem of a rub ber shortage. Speeds must be held' below 35 miles per hour. Group-rid ing plans must be employed. Tires ' must be inspected regularly and every conservation measure must be used. Passenger can are to be equipped with tires because they are essential to the nation's transporta tion but they must 6e used only for essential purposes." ' . ~; - • . -v .. "v.
