MODERNYOUTH By Pearl Strachan Corregidor—the Dunkirk, Bataan, tale Rises to the heights above the saints. This is the youth we launched our tirades at, Hiis is the Modem Youth we looked upon With cold, self-righteous eyes, as far below Our shelf of dignity, our stufl^ level. Coddled in winter, cooled in summer by Electric fans, and all dust-shielded in Protective cellophane, This is the youth. With brave, bright forehead and uni flinching glance. We see them at the station saying good-bye. We see them at the army camp, the ■dock. The training field, the mansion hotel Converted into quarters. * Next we hear Of deeds that put the classic gods to shame; Of utter unconcern for human self, Of an ideal held to and a hope For a world cleansed of savagery and lies, Let those of us who held within our grasp— Before this youth could vote—the strings that loosed Events that rippled outward into time. Be silent, with bowed heads at this account: Dunkirk, Bataan, Corregidor—and pray That we may purge us, and in time be found A little nearer to equality.

An electric' bell system was recently iiukalled to be used for fire drills, air raid alarms, and recesses. Mr. Ray, oim principal, attended the N. C. £.

F. “Binjs of North Ameridaf' and “Birds of North Carolina”, along with ten books of fiction are new ad ditions to our library. Several of the boys are building bird houses, and may our feafhehed friends find comfort in them during the winter months ahead. We regret to learn that Katherine Potter’s parents lost their Brooder house by fire early Monday morning; losing 150 small chickens. The War Savings Stamp and Bond booth has become an attractive plac^ in our hall. The boys and girls are going to spend less for candy and in vest in stamps. We regret very mlch to report that a colored school bus driver had to be haled into court and paid the cost in the case for careless and wreck- oi-Mess driving. The court in addition put him into the hands of the patrol man and school authorities who sus pended him as a driver. The author- itei are making very careful invest igations of all complaints. An invest igation of a previous complaint com pletely exhonorated the driver. Mrs. Hicksleft Monday morning fbr her home in Malone, Fla. She plans to join her husband later. Mrs. Neill McFayden is substituting for her. Veterinarian Ten don’ts for farmers, to help them avoid fall livestock-Ibsses, have been issued by Dr. C. D. Grinnelles, veterinarian of the Agricultural Ex- perim^t Station of N. C. Sj|ate ColL ege. The suggestions, based on a study of principal causes of fall losses a- mong farm animals, includ:" Don’t allow fall pigs to- be farrow ed in old hog lots infeister with worms and germs. Don’t keep stock in cold drafty buildings. Such an environment is favorable to the 4evelopiirfent pf “flu” and pneumonia. Don’t bring new feeder animals onto the farm without apropercert- ificate of veterinary inspection; al ways isolate new stock from other animals for three weeks to prevwt spread of possible disease. Don’t overcrowd poultry houses; it endangers flock health. Don[^t take chances with hog chol era; have a veterinarian check the herd and vaccinate fall pigs as soon as they are weaned. ' Don’t turn horses and cattle into cornstalk fi^ds without keeping watch on them; corpstdik disease Is always a danger; greater care should be observed in thiswartime year. Don’t l^ jnsanf'&^ liv^totk quart ers endanger profits; all stock bams should be cleande and disinfected be fore cold weather. Don’t risk ruining the dairy herd through mastitis. If any cows show inflamed udders or abnormal milk, have them examined. Don’t forget that livestock need plenty of votamins during damp, dark fall and winter weather. Vit amin A and D are eiU important. In livestock feed, Vitamin A is found only in yellow corn, green leafy le gume hay, and succulent pasture. Don’t feed soft or damaged com to mcestock. State College Hints for Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT ■ N. C. State College Careful Handling Of Soybeans Urged By AAA Chairman Farmers of Hoke County who are harvesting soybeans should exert all possible care in removing foreign material and drying thejr b^ans be fore delivery to oil cru^ing plants, according to J. M. McGougan, chair man of the County AAA Committee. Soybeans which.are offered for sale containing excess mpistyre and which have rapt been properly cleaned will be discounted, and the price to the farme^ will be reduced substantially. Present contracts between the Com modity Ctedit Corporation and crush ing plants provide for jpuiidhtasb of yqllow and so^bertof |p:ading No. 2 of better at’$1.50 per bushel, delivered to the mill pr 'to designated points. Brown black, and ifibcdd soy beans of the same grades will be purchased at $1.40 per bushel. All soybeans will be purchased on the basis of two per cent foreign hiatter—such as stems, hulls, cockle^ burs, and other se^s—and dis counts for foreign material in excess of two per ceix,t will be one cent per bushel. Most important, the chaiiman said; is the provision undear’)vhich all beans will be bbught bU the ba- s^ of 14 p^ cent npf^ture.' - Dis counts for bxc^ momurel'^dll be at the rate ot centg fi^iS'biifehel for each one dept jrtpve 14.

It will pay the producer in the long run to keep his soybeans on the farm as long as necessary to reduce the moisture content to 14 per cent or pelow”, the, chairman said. . Hoke County farmers were asked to produce 1800 acres of soybeans for oil this year as part of the Food for Freedom program. It is esti mated therq are approximately 2500 acres to be harvested in the county this year. North Carolina’s part of the national soybean goal was set at 282,000 acres, and it is estimated ap proximately 450,000 acres were plant ed.

Each new habit of care you practice helps to shorten the the war. Why not begin with painting the screens, wire and frame, and doors, too. These should be taken down and stored in the attic or storage room This is a good practice for all times. When you buy soap take the wrap per off and let it dry; it will go much further. Save soap scraps to make a liquid soap, soap scraps plus water. Don’t put hot food in refrigerator. Don’t waste space or refrigerator by keeping in the refrigerator foods that do not need to be kept cold such as pickles, jelly, vegetables, shortening and unopened cans.

At the time, the farm boys and girls signed a Victory pledge, agreeing to do all in their power to help win the war. Practically every member has con ducted a food production project, such as vegetables, peanuts, soybeans, poultry, dairy cattle, and beef cattle. Largely as a result of the 4-H effort. North Carolina had more good gardens this year lhan at any other time. Among their special wartime act ivities, the club members have col lected scrap metal, rubber, paper, and rags. Likewise, they have made sub stantial purchases of war bonds and stamps, as well as aiding in the sales drives. One jot their most important con tributions, Harrill said, has been their replacing farm labor drained off by the war industries or Selective Ser. vice.

Adults will be welcomed to the clinic if they make the proper (ar rangements through the prinicipal of their school. It is necessary that all patients bring a quilt or two, a pillow, and any other bed linen that they would like to use. We could also use some extra cots. It will be necessary that the dif ferent communities or schools have a certain day to go to the clinic in order to prevent too many going any one day. All communities will be notified 0 fthe day each is to go, however, we wou^d not want anyone to fail to go if the day set for their school is not convenient. Come on either of the three days.
