Worries are like babbles. They soon disappear to make room for otbaa Some people get very high up but not high enough to be above suspicion. 'A man shouldn't say his wife made him what he "is. It is a reflection on her. Dont hesitate to buy a pig in the poke. It's the important tiling to get the pig. This country ought to be able to endure a lot. It has such a strong constitution. If at fir$t a woman doeent get what she wants shell cry and cry again. Beset with blockades, blocks and blockheads, the war effort is greatly handicapped. And there was the selectee who claimed to have three dependents and nos independence. Women of the Dark Ages didn't use paint and powder, but women of all ages use it now. Ninety per cant of women marry but seme of them have to be content with a poor male specimen. Too many people- sit and wonder why the world goes round and too few help keep it moving. Food is rationed so that the people may receive an equal amount. Why not do the same with money? State College Hints For Farm Homemakers By Ruth Current, N. C. State College. Play is a necessary part of the development and education of every child. For wholesome constructive play chcildren need toys; they need • place to play; tliey need playmates; and they need sympathetic adults. In time of war, it takes thought and careful planning by parents to see that the children's needs are met asj well as conditions will allow. Good toys an toys with which the child can do things; playthings that are just looked at are of little value. Many of the best toys are used by children of widely differing ages. Blocks and sand and painting materials, for example, are used in a simple way by the toddler but their use continues all through childhood. It is good for a family to have some of these toys that interest children of different ages. They help to keep the family together. They interest the children of the neighborhood and pave the w»y for oomp&nionship TO OUR MOTHERS Spring is here and mm bloom.

Wear a rose for your Mother on this Mother's Day. , « BIRD CLUB Margaret Williams, a guest, read an article by Xn. Charlotte Hilton Greene, on' the Belted Kingfisher. As the name implies, this bird is a great lover of fish and plunges headlong into the water in pursuit of this food. His upper parts are grayish blue; the throat, collar and breast are white with a grayish blue band or belt across the under parts, which gives him the name of "belted" Kingfisher. There is a conspicuous white spot just in front of the eye. The female is similar to the male bat is even more colorful. These birds wear their bright colon throughout the year and do not shed them after the breeding season. The redheaded woodpecker, the cardinal, the bluebird and blue jay also retain their vivid colore all the year. The Kingfisher nests in holes, tunneled our in banks of streams or ponds by both birds. Hie opening may be from four to twenty feet deep and is often used again and again because it is hard to excavate. The five to eight eggs are pure white. The parents feed the young birds on fish,. frogs, grasshoppers, crickets and Arid mice. There is a legend that the power at quelling storms was believed to have been conferred upon the Kingfisher by Aeolus, the wind god, who granted this dispensation when his loved daughter, Halxyone, grieved deeply for her husband, Ceyx, threw herself upon his body in the sea, and both were immediately changed into Kingfishers. Charles Putnam was welcomed as a new member and Harry Allen as a guest. PIGS " «" On January 1, 1942 there were 60,377,00 hogs on U. S. farms. It is estimated that the IMS pig crop may total 126,000,000 as compared with 105*000,000 last year. Some body better grow some extra feed. "SLAP THE JAPS WITH SCRAP" I'M THE NfW with the to <s'p. M.
