Tuesday, December 9
John Jacob Niles, eminent folk-
ninger and foremost authority on
folk music today, will present a
profram of Anglo-American bal
lads, carols, street songs, work
songs, and nursery rhymes, at
Flora Mcdonald college on Tues-
iay evening, December 9, at 8:15.
The kind of songs that Dr. Niles
sings has no known composers and
scarce Ij’ any known beginning—
they have simply been sung and
handed down from generation, and
represent a collection of century-
old music from England, Scotland,
Vrales. and Ireland, that was hand-
d '.vm by oral transmission from
1l. - countries.
Today, this music still lives in
file Appalachian Mountains, in
remote corners of Kentucky, Vir
ginia. West Virginia, North and
South Carolina and Tennessee.
His collection is tlje largest in the
English-speaking world, and he
is the only folk singer today , who
has never used material from any
callection but his own—just as he
uses only dulcimers of his making
-for accompaniment. He has a
storehouse of more than a thou
sand songs and their varients
which he is now copying by hand
(the largest in the English speak,-

, ?• IRRIGATION BECOMES FAMILIAR SIGHT—Overhead irrigation such as used in this Orange
County cabbage field is becoming more common on southern farms as drotight-dreary farmers prove
the wisdom of supplementary irrigation. An extensive survey by Carolina Power & Light Company
farm specialists shows it “saved” many farmers last June-Aueust
if the children knew the night be
fore what clothes they would
wear the next day and every per
son knew that the soiled clothes
should be placed in laundry bag
or hamper, sleeping clothes hung
in the closet, the beds made, and
lunch menu planned a week in
advance for quick early morning
packing.
Following such a plan or fam
ily cooperative system would make
for happier famfly relationships
as well as save the homemaker
hours of hard work and worry.
It’s excellent training for young
people to have—^grown-ups will
profit too and appreciate more
the job of mothers and home
makers.
Did you know this? Lettuce
leaves won’t rust (turn) brown if
you wrap them in a paper towel
before you place in the crisping
pan in your refrigerator.
It’s wasteful to discard outside
lettuce leaves because they are
bruised and somewhat discolored.
Crisp them, shred them, use in a
salad or on sandwiches.
‘ Save the vitamins and minerals
when you cook leafy vegetables.
Turnip greens and spinach should
be cooked in only the water that
clings to the leaves when they are
washed. ' ,

Folder Published
On Swine Disease
The N. C. State College Agri
cultural Extension Service an
nounces publication of a new fold
er on “Brucellosis in Swine.”
Brucellosis (Bangs), also refer
red to as contagious abortion, is
an infectious disease that is caus
ing heavy swine losses in North
Carolina. In many cases the grow
er doesn’t realize that his animals
have the disease. The only sure
way of determining its presence is
to have the herd tested.
Swine brucellosis occurs as
Bangs disease in cattle and undu-
lant fever in man. Reports of the
State Department of Public Health
show that North Carolina had 30
diagnosed cases of tmdulant fever
in 1951. Persons who handle in
fected animals are more likely
than others to contact the disease.
Since effective cures for brucel
losis in swine have dot developed,
other control measures must be
relied on. These measures are de
scribed in the new folder, which
was prepared by J. Clark Osborne,
head of the veterinary section in
State College’s Department of An
imal Industry; Hal J. Rollins,
State veterinarian, State Depart
ment of Agriculture; and Jack
Kelley, in charge, animal husban
dry extension, State College.
Free copies of “Brucellosis in
Swine,” issued as Extension Folder
No. 93, may be obtained from the
local county agent or by writing

The dulcimeiv is a very ancient
instrument, in a family with the
psaltery, the zither, the rabeck,
and the citole. It dates back to
the days of King Nebuchadnezz-.
ar, and was popular in Henry
VIH’s England. Eash dulcimer
is tuned to a single key, and for
this reason Dr. Niles carries four
dulcimers to each concert. The
dulcimer has been likened to a
stringed bagpipe, for it has eight
strings which run from high to
low rather than from low to high,
as in the guitar, mandolin, and
other stringed instruments.
Dr. Niles concerts have won ac
claim from England and Esthonia

the “unique troubadour whom no

bine ingredients in a bowl, mix
ing well with a spoon. Do not

H ow would you like the fun of
Christmastime to last all the year
through?
That’s the way it seems to be when you
call this Buick beauty your own^what
with the constant cheer it brings to you
week after week, month after month.
The cheer of traveling in style that’s
bright and gay as a holiday wrapping.
The dieer of having rich and spacious
comfort — plus the cheery thought that
nowhere else can you get as much room
for the money.
The cheer of knowing abundant and
mighty able power is on call, with all
the solid thrift of a Fireball 8 Engine
that’s valve-imhead — and also high-
compression.
The cheer of riding wonderfully buoy
ant, level and steady—with a ride that
jeels like the millicm dollars it cost to
perfect.
The cheer of taking your travel free and
easy—with Dynaflow Drive* doing the
chores in letter-perfect smoothness —
with Power Steering** assisting to
make parking and slow-motion maneu
vers no task at all.
Even the price is a cheerful note here
—low enough, you’ll find, to crowd the
so-named “low-price three.”
That means action is called for this very
week, to make the most of this good deal
while it lasts.
Why not drop in today or tomorrow and
see how much cheer is to be found in a
Buick showroom right now?
