But before we get completely into Christmas we'd better finish our news of Thanksgiving with an item we inadvertently left out of our column a while back. Guests of Mr. and Mrs. Miller Cook for Thanks giving dinner were Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Canady and daughter of Fayetteville, Mrs. Steve Cook of Southern Pines. Mr. and Mrs. Billy Cox and family of Raeford, Mr. and Mrs. Don Wood and son of Dillon, S.C. and Mrs. Charlie Baker of Raeford.

Also visiting were Mr. and Mrs. Joe Williams of Wade. Charles and Hattie Chason gave a birthday dinner Sunday for their son, Larry, and Charles' father. Lonnie Chason.

Listening Center For Hoke Schools Club Gives Device In Teacher's Memory A tape ? recorder system for anses. teaching exceptional children in the Hoke County Schools was given Thursday to the school system by the Raeford Junior woman's Gub in memory of Miss Leigh Good rum, a blind teacher. Miss Goodrum had taught the exceptional - children's class at McLauchlin School for two years till shortly before she died May 2. She was 27 when she died. The presentation was made by club president Brenda Branch at the Scurlock School class to Miss Kathy Radecki, the class's teacher, during a class period. Mrs. Rhenda Cameron, coordinator of the special children's programs for the county schools, had suggested the equipment, called a Listening Cen ter, as a memorial gift in honqr of Miss Goodrum when the club was considering a gift. Mrs. Cameron is a former member of the Junior Woman's Club. The Junior Woman's Club's gift will be passed from school to school as the need Miss Goodrum in her excep tional ? children's classes taugnt principally learning - disabled and mentally handicapped students, none of whom were blind. The school system has no blind stu dents, and had none then, Mrs. Cameron said. She said Miss Goodrum used hearing techniques primarily in her teaching, though she also used the sense of touch in her teaching. Not only did Miss Goodrum teach children who could see but showed her fellow teachers with normal sight how to use hearing and other senses other than sight in the most efficient possible in teaching, Mrs. Cameron added. Up to six children at a time, using head - set ear 'phones can learn lessons from tape recordings made by the teacher while the teacher ^is instructing other stu dents iif a class and recording the lesson at the same time for future use of the exceptional children. Housing Tips by Willie-Featherstone, Jr. Associate Agricultural Extension Agent Reflections of 1980 The performance of the wood products industry in 1980 was poor due to continued inflation and very high interest rates. Housing starts (1,200,000) were 29 percent below 1979 (1,700,000). Southern pine production was down 15 percent and prices were lower. Total softwood lumber produc tion was also down 20 percent. Hardwood lumber production was up 3 percent but prices were 5 percent lower due to declining demand. Hardwood lumber ship ments and orders received de creased 5 percent. Furniture ship ments for 1980 were unchanged from 1979. Total paper production was up 2 percent. The industrial wood fuel market continues to expand with seven brick plants, six textile mills, and several state institutions switching to wood. IRS Will Allow Tax Credit and Amortization Of Reforestation Landmark tax incentive provi sions for reforestation were signed into law October 14. 1980. HR 4310-7 provides a 10 percent investment tax credit plus seven year amortization of up to Si 0,000 of capitalized reforestation expen ditured incurred each year. Qualifying expenditures include costs of site preparation, seed or seedlings and labor and equipment used in planting incurred after December 31, 1979. To qualify, a property must be held for the production of commercial timber products and be one acre or more in size. The tax incentive provided by this law excludes capitalized re forestation expenditures which are reimbursed under state or federal cost-share programs. Shelter belts and ornamental trees are not included. As with any new legislation, interpretations and examples must be developed. As we receive and/or develop additional information we will inform you. Check with competent tax au thorities if you had reforestation costs during 1980. Consider the tax benefits before you turn down an opportunity to reforest in 1981.
