To thm People of this Community "My Thinking — My Money — My Time will slay in this war to the finish." Ted R. Gamble, National cb-' rector of the War Finance Division and leader of the millions of volunteers who are sell ing you the extra War Bonds needed to beat the Japs and com plete the war job in Europe, put the wartime credo of Americans in these 14 words. It's good advice to follow not only during war loans but every day. You can't help too much to win a war. Today's community and na tional war loan totals should re flect your personal determination to see the war through. Regard less of what the War Bond score is today, it is not high enough unless you have gone to bat and bought bonds to the actual limit of your buying power. THE EDITOR ■ Soaking pans and dishes saves time, and cold water is recommended. Don't let ircm utensils rust. A countrywide shortage of food containen of all kinds is reported by the War Food Administration. 4-1 — producing enough crates and boxes to ship war supplies has mounted since V-E Day." Have you ever tried & few drops of Worcestershire Sauce on bacon be fore broiling:? It does things to it.^—Duncan Hines. Most persons can live comfortably on a fixed income, provided they re ceive an unexpected bonus every now and then, to clear up unexpected ex penses. A small minority of people are willing to put themselves to no end of trouble to get bread. A much smaller minority are willing to bake their own bread. Farmers Urged To Sell 1943 Cotton and Liquidate Loans All 1943—crop cotton still under loan August 1, 1945 will be pooled for producer's accounts by the Com modity Credit Corporation, according to J. V. Taylor, chairman, Pitt County AAA Committee. "Producers may, repay outstanding 1934-crop loans and redeem their cot ton under the terms of the 1945 cot ton crop loan prior to this date," Mr. Taylor declared. In explaining the procedure to .be followed in the liquidation of these loans, the AAA leader said that "all of the 1943-crop loan cotton which is not redeemed by August 1, 1945, will be placed in a pool, as provided in the loan agreement, and sold in an orderly manner by the Commodity Credit Corporation. On final liquida tion of all cotton in the pool, the net proceeds, if any, after deductions of all advances and accured costs, will be distributed among producers whose cotton has been placed in the pool in proportion to their investments." "Payments will be made to the pro ducers at the time the cotton is plac ed in the pool, and after August 1, 1946, individual producers will not be entittled to order the sale or the par ticular cotton which they placed in um pool, ne www. Mr. Taylor pointed oat that the average 1943 loan rate fer 15/18-inch cotton, net weight, was 20.00 cents per pound. Cotton at the present time is telling for considerably more and producer* are urged to redeem the eottpn they have under loan in order to Uke . Vantage of the higher price and at the same time make storage space available for the IMS 1 —•—— HISTORY'S INCREDIBLE SO DAYS " Wm • In the yean to come, the boys aa< girls of today will have to buckli down to a hard (rind when studying world history of this day, the event) of which are thrusting themselve forward with amasing rapidity.

"The Bible Course in the Farmville School this year has helped me — 1. To understand God better. 2. It has strengthened me spiritually. 8. I now read and understand my Bible more. 4. It has helped me to surren der my life to the Lord for service. 6. I not only have learned to know the Lord myself, but I now have a. desire to tell others about Jesus. . 6. It has drawn me closer to God, and made God seem nearer to me in my every day life. 7. It has helped me to de sire the better things of. life. 8. It has helped me to overcome some bad habits that were weakening my life and usefulness.1 9. It has shown me things that I never realised before that God wants me to do. 10. We have no church nor Sunday School in our community, so this Bible class in the school has been my only contact with holy things. 11. . It has helped me to pay more attention to my Bible in my daily life. It has taught me more of the wonderful works of God. 12. Yes, it has helped me much more than ever I realize, for I pray now, and I truly love God. Through this class I have come into contact with Him every day, and this contact is making a real change in my life. 13. The study of the Bible has led me to understand better what God means when He said 'Remember the Sabbath Day and to Keep it Holy.' 14. The Bible study helped me to get a better picture of my own Jife, to make me look at the way I was living, *»d to make me ashamed of the sinful habits I was practicing.' God has helped me to overcome these this year. Signed (Pearl V. Eichelberger). BIRD CLUB Tommie Little read an article writ ten by Phillips Russell, Chapel Hill on Night Birds in Cl^at, Bulletin of North Carolina Birtt Club. It States that there ajy several species of birds that sound some kind of note at night. Purely nocturnal birds like the Whip poor-will, the Chuck-wills-widow, and Owls are of course well known. But strange to say, the common bird that carries the word "nigra" in his title does not sound his call after dazfc. The one bird that gives forth his full repertorie as gloriously by night as by day is the Mocking-bird. Moon light nights of April and May and sometimes the harvest moon nights of early September, are very exciting to the mocker and he will sing for an hour with no t accompaniment other than a sailing moon overhead. Ano ther bird to whom the full moon is stimulating is the Chat. On' silver nights he wakes up at intervals and give his list of toots* whistles, rasps and chirps. And again, the Field Sparrow is a musician often moved to give his solitary tinkles and chirps when the moon is high and grand. His is at all times a delightful sang but when in the stillness of a summer night he suddenly sounds his lay, it ia expuisite, He rarely keeps up his nocturnal ditty more than a minute or two. The Great Blue Herpn seems to be subject to nightmans or sudden alarms on quiet, densely dark nights, for at such times he is given to out breaks of croattngs that may result from terror or just resentment The little Graen Heron also rouses itself at night with grants and flapptogs. The Bob-white is a decorous daytime bird but occasionally calls plaintively from the fields while the night is ■till dark. The Killdaer, too, often adds itsjltmesome cry to the sounds of the night. The members enjoyed a letter from Pfc. Eddie Dmke, Jr., in which he said Camp Lejtnaa is a regular Bird phray. Again *• Bunk you.
