Weekly Report On
Activities Around Antioch
By Miss Fronde Kennedy
Mother's Day brought a number
of visits and visitors, family get
togethers, corsages, white and red
rosebuds, and a very fine sermon
emphasizing the duties and re
sponsibilities of families as set
down in the fifth commandment,
"Honor thy father and thy mo
ther." "Christian Family Week"
has been emphasized in all the
circle meetings during the past
week, and Sunday's service was
a fitting climax.
On Wednesday evening the Wo
men of the Church observed one
of the outstanding events of their
official year, the annual birthday
gift party. Originated by Mrs.
Winnsborough many years ago
on a very modest scale, this year
ly festivity has grown to be one
of the cherished and happy ways
of raising funds for chosen objec
tives. At first each woman was
asked to donate exactly as many
pennies as she was years old.
Then women began to claim a
hundred years, and now there are
some who count their years by
quarters or dollars. Many pretty
customs have grown up with the
years, and not the least valuable
by-product has been the familiar
ity with the needs and activities
of the church developed by discus
sions as to toe selection of objec
tives. One of the standards deve
loped has been the use In alter
nate years of the fund for home
and foreign missions. This year
the goal set is $210,000. This goal
is based on earlier gifts, and may
well be passed, as has happened
in many previous years. What
ever fund;; a-e raised will be dis
tributed equally to Goodland In
dian Orphanage for the purpose of
improving educational facilities
there, to church extension activi
ties in Guerrant Presbytery in
Kentucky, and to the Presbyterian
Church's Division of Radio and
Television based in Decatur, Ga.

Paying Tribute To
Leaders Part Of
National Club Week
National Home Demonstration
Week, which is being observed
this week, is a time for paying
tribute to volunteer club leaders.
What is a volunteer home de
monstration leader? What does
she do? She is a club woman giv
ing voluntarily of her time and
talents to promote home demon'
stration.
Today in North Carolina there
are subject matter leaders in the
1,800 clubs of the state foods
and nutrition, clothing and food
conservation, home management,
poultry, gardening, and family re

Mrs. Charles Graham of Lin
wood, president of the North Car
olina Federation of Home Dem
onstration Clubs, says she thinks
of volunteer leaders as topsoil.
"As the rain and the sun must
filter through the topsoil before
reaching the subsoil, so it must
be through volunteer leaders that
many unreached families will be
reached," says Mrs. Graham.
"These leaders realize that theirs
is a two-way position," continues
Mrs. Graham. "They, as leaders,
are growing stronger as they help
others.
There are also leaders active in
furthering the "extra" home de
monstration projects like music,
citizenship and international re
lations, health and safety, and
education. All leaders are work
ing to broaden and strengthen
their program.

Fowl Pox Can
Be Prevented
Often the little things in poul
try production prove to be the
big things when the profit-loss
ledger is balanced at the end of
the year, says R. S. Dearstyne,
head of the department of poultry
science, N. C. State College.
Dearstyne says chicken pox, or
fowl pox, is one of the "little
things" that is often overlooked
by even experienced poultrymen.
"Outbreaks of this disease can
easily be prevented," says Dear
styne, "yet it is surprising how
often it is overlooked. Usually
they pay the bill for their neg
lect." Chickens of all ages are sus
ceptible to pox. It does not usually
occur in young birds but breaks
out very often in pullets Just a
bout to come in lay or among
those in early lay. When this hap
pens, real trouble has come. Ap
petite is retarded and production
may drop to near zero. While
actual mortality clue to the di
sease is not usually great, loss of
production for several weeks of
lay when egg prices are high is a
real blow.
Pox is one of the easiest of the
poultry disaeses to prevent. Vac
cination with a potent virus should
give life immunity. The vaccina
tion is best applied when birds are
are from eight to 14 weeks of age.
This gives the chickens time to
recover from the slight shock
brought about by vaccination and
to develop immunity before the
time for laying arrives. The cost
is little over a penny a bird and
the vaccination is not a laborious
procedure. Practically all feed
supply houses carry pox virus and
complete directions for use come
in the container.
North Carolina farmers will
vote in the second Nickels-For-Know-How
referendum this fall.

worth-while things to the most people . . . and more and more
people are now buying Fords
F
or a lonc time, people have recognized
that Ford is the "Worth More" car. And
they have been expressing their preference
in a great and growing volume of purchases.

If you're in the market for any new car,
youll be missing something if you don't

In the first placet Ford offers the two most
modem engines in the entire industry: the
completely new 130-Lp. T-block V-8 and
the outstanding new 115-h.p. I -block Six.
As for comfort Ford is the only car in its
field with Ball-Joint Front Suspension. This
amazing new principle provides a degree of
handling and riding ease that cannot bo
equalled in any car without this new
suspension system.
Choice, too, is a department where Ford
excells. Youll find just exactly the car for
you among the 14 body styles and more
than 100 body color and upholstery combi
nations in Ford's three great lines.
And consider these facts, too. Ford is a com
