UTo distent port,

Itate Col

leave of abaence March 1. Ia talking
over this appointement with the head
of hia department, Ii learned that Lee
was chosen because ;ef hie vory inti

Improved practices can be applied to
Japan's basic pattern of farming.
Whenever a man sets his eyes on
Tokyo for the first time, lasting im
pressions have a amy of building up.
I Wanted to know what Lee, who has
been connected with State College
since 1936, would have to say about
these original imprints on the
memory.
Breathes there a man who wouldn't
write home about it T Well, this Mr.
Lee, whose chief interest of a life
time has been North Carolina soils,
set down his impressions in a letter
to Director I. 0. Sehaub of the State
College Extension Service. His train
of thought on Tokyo runs like this:
"A much bombed city, with vast
areas laid waste ? broad streets ?
everything left handed ? smells ?
decrepit little trolleys packed full,
with people on the outside like ants
clinging to a picnic cookie-? little
men, big loads ...
"Everything left handed . . . doors
. . . driving... turns... always bump
ing into someone going the wrong ( T)
way . . . bicycles, bicycles . . . some
pulling half a ton in a trailer . . .
little mem big loads . . . Japanese
with rosy cheeks who do not look ill
fed . . . smells
"Odd dress, women in slacks, ki
monos, dresses, wooden shoes. Jeeps,
thousands of them, driven by Japan
ese. Hundreds of colonels. Hardly a

"Army houses and feeds us in
hotels and large homes . . . many
places 'off limits'... Army runs free
buses . . . large and important build
ings missed in bombing . . . people
appear intelligent, clever, polite . . .
Army uses Japanese everywhere pos
sible . . . about half the office force
in Agriculture are Japanese." His
wandering thoughts end.
I have noticed before that where
little men have big loads in agricul
ture, State College is always repre
sented in any program designed to
lighten their burden.
Now I know why Mr. Lee went to.

Due to the fact that we have a lot of stray dogs running
in the Town of Fanmvilk, the people
at large on the streets . _ __ wJ/Kk
are complaining about the dogs damaging flower gardens
and other property.
1 am asking that all people who own dogs or pets to please
cooperate in confining them to their premises, so that the
stray dogs that are not owned at have not been treated for
rabies disease might be disposed of. This is tot the purpose
of protecting the children in Town from being bitten by a
dog that has not been treated.
You will recall that last year the Health Department in
Pitt County had to order that aU 'dogs in the county be
quarantined, and with your cooperation this year, this can
be prevented. Several cases of rabies existed in the^ county
last year where children had come in contact with diseased
dogs.
For your information I am printing the Town Ordinance
as to requirements of dogs running at large.
r? ? V" ,v\j /' - ...
Section Ul. It shall be unlawful for any person
owning a. dog to suffer or permit said dog to run at
large within the corporate limits of the Town of Farm
viUe. Any person violating this ordinance shall be
fined ten (f 10.00) dollars.

We must enforce this law, so will highly appreciate your
cooperation.
Respectfully,
L. T. LUCAS, Chief of Police.
