SCHOOL NEWS OF THEPASTWEEK By K. A. MacDONALD 'The people in this community are busy gathering up old scrap rubber, and we are proud to do our part in helping out in this good cause. SUPPLEMENT J. T. Daniel, 79-y«ar-old Gran ville county farmer, supplemented his tobacco income by selling $832 worth of chickens, com, meat, eggs and vegetables from his farm last year, reports W. B. Jones, assis tant agent. TO THE VOTERS OF HOKE COUNTY Twenty-eight Future Farmers of America went to camp at White Lake last week. They were under the direct supervision of their chapter counselor and vocational agriculture teacher, J. W. Dowd. The camp was under the general supervision of Jas. A. Gerrow, camp director. Mr. Gef- row is principal of the Lexington high school. There ,were 21 schools represented at camp with a total en rollment of 315. This was about 100 more than were expected to attend Each week there will be boys there from the schools all over Nwth Car olina. For the past two years our boys have won the cup as best camp ers for the summer season. They took first place for the week this year with a total of 225 points. This will be the record that all the other schools will have to shoot at. It will be pretty hard to beat The next highest score was made by Star high school with total of 195 points. Mr. Dowel states that they had the best compe tition this year that they have ever had. Odr boys took first place in the following, eontes^—"SlMrbMnai^iPiJ^all oF us to overeome. tabid manners, cabin clean-up, swim ming, softball, baseball, volley ball and horseshoes. We are proud^of this record, particularly of the first three classes in which they excelled. The following boys were in attend ance: C. J. McNeill, Thomas Davis, L. M. Huggins, Will Frank Wright, June Wright, Edwin Hasty, George Leach, Eugene Currie, Frank Currie, Irvin Currie, Fred Hendrix, James Hendrix, Warren Childress, Zane Gray Norton, Jimmie Plummer, Rob ert Mott, Thomas Potter, Johnnie Mc- Gougan, Percey McNeill, Frazier Hair, Chesley Crouch, Edward Clan ton, Neill McNeill, Julius Mize, Fred Yarborough, J. W. Dawson, Hutaff Blake, and Billie McGee Harmon. The entire cost of the trip to the boys was only $5.20 apiece. They had a wonderful experience and learned a lot for this modest cost. During the week they had a trip to Wilmington in addition to their stay in camp. While away they were under the constant supervision of Mr. Dowd in addition to the camp director, coun selors and life guards. We hope that the war wUl not in terfere with their going next year. Mr. and Mrs. George Bethune, of Raleigh, spent the weekend in Rae ford. * * * * Miss Christiana McFadyen arrived home Sunday from the University of Chicago. Miss McFadyen is the dau ghter of Mr. and Mrs. William Mc Fadyen. I wish to take this means of ap pealing to the voters of Hoke county (especially to the women who SOTie- times neglect voting), to go to the polls Saturday and cast your vote and influence in favor of temperance. Let’s send to the Assembly a rep resentative who pledges himself to fight'this evil of strong drink, which is so demoralizing our land. If we fail to do so, we imply that Hoke county is not in favor of a referen dum. If we study statistics, we will see that the suffering, heart-aches, and crimes due to liquor, have greatly multiplied since the repeal of the 18th amendment. We realize that prohibition did not completely solve the liquor problem. AU laws of both God and man are sometimes broken. Never-the-less, these laws diminish crimes even though they do not put an end to them. Some who are already addicted to strong drink would hunt up the boot-legger even if there were no A. B. C. stores, but why make it easier for them to get whiskejr? What about the drunkard who is hon estly trying_to quit drinking? Per haps he will be strong enough to keep away from the bootlegger, but will he be strong enough to keep out of the A. B. C. store that he must pass each time he goes to and from his work? We have all known big-hearted, splendid men whose lives have been wrecked by strong drink. Let’s strive to remove stumbling blocks (A. B. C. stores) from the paths of others. What about that boy of yours, or your neighbor’s son or daughter? Are we going to put temptation in their way, by having them pass A. B. C. stores as they walk the street, or read liquor ads when they open many of our magazines and papers? Perhaps the liquor store is no temptation for you, or perhaps you may take an occasion^ drink with out getting drunk; but that boy who is walking in your foot-steps may not be strong enough to stop with an occasional drink. There are enough temptations for Now that we have opportunity k> cast a vote that ADVEBTISING IN THE NEWS-JOUHNAL DOESMTf COHT. IT PATS! NOTICE!

Mrs. Woodhouse will continue with the restricted defense program. In the Kinston area of 19 counties only 3 projects are left. The welding cen ter at Wilmington, the carpentry center at Kinston and the auto me chanics center for negro boys at Fay etteville. may help to remove one of the temp- tejtions of youth, and the foe of many of our older brothers, let’s remember that we are our brother’s keeper, and cast our vote aright.
