BIRD CLUB NOTES Billie Russell read about pools, bird baths and bird nests at Satur day's meeting. Birds are cleanly crea tures. Water is a thing most of them must have. They will go long dis tances to cool themselves on hot dry days. Birds are not particular, for they will use a flower pot, saucer, or a garbage can top as happily as the finest formal type of decorative bird bath on a pedestal. If a shallow pan for drinking and bathing is placed on the ground be sure it is far enough away from bushes and flowers so that stray cats will not be able to surprise the feather-sooked bathers. Properly built bird-houses, well placed, can increase bird life to a remarkable degree. In a small gar den, sanctuary, or a park, where all dead wood has been removed. It is the only possible way of getting a Bluebird or Wren or other hole-nest ing species to stay. Abundant food and water alone are not sufficient to hold them if they can find no place to raise their families. Therefore, Billie urges that every one have a bird bath and bird houses in their gardens. NOTE OF THANKS I take this method of thanking the parents and children of Farmville for the way in which they handled the shooting: of few fire works shot here during Christinas.

For us to be of most service to oqr neighbor^ and country, we moat maintain a close fellowship with God. This fellow ship can be had thru the service* of the church. Because it ministers in your name and in the name of Christ, the church appeals' for your loyal support—physically, morally and financially this New Year. Here is a good text for the New Year: "Return unto rae and I will return unto you, sayetb the Lord." We shall endeavor to maintain regular worship and Sunday School thru the year. Come and worship with us. C. B. Mash burn, Pastor. Care Of Christmas Linens Suggested If you were lucky enough to re ceive linens as Christmas, gifts this year, Miss Pauline E. Gordon, Ex tension bouse furnishings specialist of N. C. State College, suggests thai you give them extra good cam Sheets and pillowcases are an the "make 'em last" list, she declared. Textile mills are taxed to the limit (with orders f«r the armed services and Miss Gordon says that home makers can help to ease the heavy schedules of these mills by taking extra good care of the household linens. She suggests that one of the best ways to get good service from a sheet or pillowcase is to distribute the wear as evenly as possible. "Sheets wear out most quickly where the sleeper's shoulders nor mally rest," the Extension specialist explained. "This wear can be dis tributed' by reversing the sheet oc casionally, putting the top part .at the bottom of the bed. Also, be care ful to alternate their use by placing freshly laundered sheets on the bot tom of the pile in your linen closet "Sheets not large enough for the bed wear out quickly. When used as undersheets, they may get herd pulling ip an effort to tuck them in. When used as topsheets, they may get yanked at the top as the sleeper tries to cover hie shoulders. "Umderships, the removable cover ing' for pillow*, lighten the wear on pillowcases. A pillowcase may show first signs of wear where folded. Constant folding makes these places so weak that in time they will split. • "Using a sheet or pillowcase as a laundry bag is one of the hardest uses to which it can be put. There is a strain on the sheet where it is knotted to hold in the laundry. If a pillowcase is wed, its seams suffer the chief strain." ply as is ffittmUflile {*ag*tables, •ggs, milk, fruits and meats.) Can and store /oods raised or bought when prices are low. Buy for current seeds; do not hoad. Teach your family to eat all avail able ft^V-food dislikes are not patriotic, Stop food wastes. Learn to cook vegetables to avoid loss of minerals and vitamins. Buy whole grain breads, flours, and cereals, or enriched white flour and bread. Prepare foods at home whenever possible; they are cheaper than ready-to-serve foods such as breads, cereals, desserts and soups. Expect fewer sizes of canned good*—more bulk goods. Give your family nourishing pack ed lunches; they cost less than meals in a restaurant. Spend as much for milk aa for meat, sod ss much for fruits and vegetables aa for meat. Plan meal i carefully ahead of time. CHICKS The output of chicks by commer cial hatcheries continues high com pared with other years, the Novem ber total 24,913,000 chicks being 10 percent greater than the same month last year. There's little profit in connecting oneself with a family tree. It's the tree of knowledge that counts. When we have to pay for our sins on the installment plan, it makes them expensive.
