W. BEAM Cherryville, N. C. Charles F. Carroll Endorses “S-D Day” Raleigh — “S-D Day” — wu hailed today by Charles F. Car roll, State Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction, as “a real oppor tunity for our schools to snow that youth can contribute to com munity traffic safety.’’ “S-D Day” is Wednesday, December 15. It is sponsored by the President’s Action Committee for Traffic Safety in cooperation with all public officials and vari ous national organizations inter ested in traffic accident preven tion, as a demonstration that traf fic accidents can be eliminated if people in every community are willing to make the effort. Carroll paid: “We believe that our children do a pretty good job' as pedestrians, especially on their way to and from school each day. Most teachers devote time to the traffic safety problem,, and help children develop safe practices for walking riding bicycles. “Many of our schools have had safey patrols for years, and patrol experience is an important factor in helping thousands of young sters appreciate the dangers of to day’s traffic. Our school bus driv ers, too, have an enviable record, but are always alert to improve it still further. “Through driver education pro grams in many of the high schools more and more of our young peo ple are learning how to operate cars safely and courteously. They, too, have a real opportunity to see that the goal of the December 15th S-D Day is achieved in their communities. "I commend S-D Day to all school officials ir. North Carolina and urge them t osupport it with appropriate educational activities The values of well planned activi ties in the schools will extend far beyond the 24 hours of S-D Day, and will help our State to con serve its richest source—our ctiil dren and youth.” Civil Service Examinations The United States Civil Service Commission announces that there is still a need for librarians in various Federal agencies in Wash ington, D.

Community Buildings Need Planning I Most North Carolina communi ties need to look farther ahead into the future when they build their community houses. That’s the belief of Selz Mayo, rural sociologist in the North Carolina Experiment Station af ter a tour of 25 organized com munities in IS western counties. | These folks bubbled over in i their desire to .build a better com | munity for themselves and their I children. They put their skill, ingenuity and ability into building I the be=t community houses they j But Mayo noticed several out standing shortcomings in the planning of all too many of these commuity buildings. Built under the pressure of short-run enthus iasm. they lack several important things. 1. The main auditorium is sim plv too small for the community. . 2. No kitchen or eating facilities were planned for in the begin ning. They were added later at high cost ad often by taking up other needed space. 3. Original plans made no pro vision for replacing the tempor ary heating units. 4. Land was not available for parking space, outdoor fire places, a ball field or other recreational facilities as the need for those '■ arose. To avoid these unnecessary ' ‘growing pains,” Mlayo suggests: i “Think BIG, even though you ; build only for the present. Plan ! ahead at least for one genera ;itl0n- —--— IACP Closing Date ! j Drawing Near ;j With the 1954 Agricultural ; i Conservation Program closing in i j just a few more weeks, approxi 1 ruatel.v 7>,412 Tar Heel farmers ; i have signed up to participate in II the prog-am, according to figures i | released t oday by H.

In M'angum’s words. “Conservation j of the soil and water resources is sc vital to the welfare of the ' State that we all must do every [ thing we can to see that only i good conservation farming prac ' tices are carried out on the land." i Under this vear’s Agricultural i Conservation Program as well as ' the program planned for next ! year, conservation practices which j help to build up and store poten tial productive capacity in the > soil are being stressed.
