Celebrates Silver Jubilee Approximately 3,800,000 boys have enrolled in the Guild’s mem bership and participated in some measure in its activities. A recent survcey made by Fish er Body among former competi tors in the Guild program indi cates that both winners and non winners feel they gained some | thing very important from the experience of designing, biulding and entering a model in the Guild competition. Over ,r>00 replies have been re ceived by the Guild from former winners polled to find out what kind of careers they have built for themselves and how much their Guild experience aided them in training for their careers. Among the group already heard from. r>4 per cent are etiher still in school (fit! per cent of them in college) or in the U. S. Armed Forces. Of those now active in their cho.-on careers. -2 per cent are engineers. In per Cent are Win ning their own ' businesses and four per cent are doctors. The remainder are engaged in activi ties too varied to tabulate but they include industrial designers, tool and die designers, salesmen, farmers, draftsmen, bankers, ed ucatros. newspapermen, arid one member of the FBI. : The 1955 competition ends at I midnight, June 1. For several weeks thereafter the model cars will undergo intensive judging by i General Motors styling experts, professional vocational arts in structors and members of the 1 -- Guild’s technical staff. During the month of July, win ners and state and regional com petitions will be announced and on August 2, national winners and recipients of the university schol arships will be announced over a national television program. Tar Heel Family Car Travels 800 Miles More A Yr. Than ’40 AKRON, OHIO. — Average North Carolina families are put ting 800 miles more a year on the family car than they used to do 15 years ago, according to a study made by the Business Re search Department of The B. r. Goodrich Company. In that per iod, travel-happy North Carolina families have upped their average road mileage from 0,400 to 10. 200 miles. The latter figure is 7(0) miles above the national average. The study revealed that in terms of average family income, automobile tires are a better buy now than ever before. While av erage North Carolina family in comes increased 2to per cent since 1040. replacement tire costs rose only 20 per cent. Today. North Carolina families spend less of their 8 1.200 average year income to replace worn ou* tires than they spend annually for shoe repair- and ■shines. In driving 10,200 miles today, according to B. F. Goodrich, 1.5 tire--, valued at .8 15.72, are worn Out This is about one per cent of total, average family annual in come in North Carolina In traveling 0.400 miles in 1940, about 1.9 tires, costing $35.48, were worn out. Fifteen years ago, the proportion of North Carolina family income go j ing for tires was 2.4 times larger than the present figure. Passenger car registration in North Carolina have doubled since 1940. Latest figures show 991,000 cars registered, or one car for every 4.3 persons in the state. Fifteen years ago, an av erage of 7.3 persons would have had to pile into every car in or der to give all persons . n North ' ’aro lift a a ride at the same time. Since 1940, population in North Carolina has increased from 3.0 million to about 4.3 million. Heat Can Rob Quality Of Eggs Even though the calendar said pring was here sometime ago, the weatherman is just now get ring around to bringing out the warm weather. And according to Thomas 1!. Morris, Txtension Poul : i y specialist warm Or hot weath r to a poult ryman short d be a learning that egg quality w:ll not i bold up like it did during the | cool, months of the year. Heat will very quick y steal uality eggs from eggs, Morris • am.. Quality of eggs in : warm, dry place can decline one to two grades in 48 to 72 hours. Quality eggs are worth ip.cent's ,,r more per dozen. If a con.-umer pays 60 cents a dozen and finds ’wo bad eggs, she would be a lot ■ happier paying 70 cent -• for 12 good eggs. If a producer can get live cents a dozen more for eggs produced during the warm months, it adds to his labor income. A flock of 500 hens averaging 55 per cent production return over $200 more income for the warm months if the eggs are sold for another nickel more. Eggs are not dobbed of their quality if they are kept in a cool, m.oist place. Every producer i needs an egg room to hold eggs | on hte farm before they are sent . to market. Plans for constructing an egg room are available through county agents offices of the Agri cultural Extension Editor, N. 0. State College. Raleigh, NT. C.

But two other developments also have been responsible for this ac tual increase in resources per farm worker. Farmers have bought much new machinery and equipment; they have added to their buildings; and they have lm proved their land a great deal. In addition, the number of farm workers has been shrinking and is now about a fourth less than m the years immediately preceding World War II. Most striking is the increased investment in machinery and equipment. Average value of eq uipment at the disposal of each farm .worker today is nearly $1» i)00 as compared with $200 worth of machinery and equipment per worker in 1940.

A REPORT TO THE PUBLIC ON THE TELEPHONE STRIKE Southern Bell deeply appreciates the efforts made by the Governors to settle the Telephone strike. We regret that we were not able to convince those who represent the Union that the Company's proposal for increased wages, expanded arbit ration, and other contract improvements is fair and liberal. It protects the interests of the public, the employees and the Company. We will continue our efforts to convince Union leaders of its benefits and advantages. We hope we will be successful. In the meantime, telephone service con tinues good. Over 30,000 telephone men and women are on the job. More are returning every day. We are handling our normal volume of long distance calls. Local service is 85 per cent dial-operated, and in the other cities and towns where operators handle the calls, the service is generally normal. Over the south, the messages are going through. This would not be possible without the great encouragement and cooperation given us by telephone users everywhere, and by the skill and spirit of tele phone folks on the job. To both groups go our warmest thanks. SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH CO. SERVING THE SOUTH FOR 75 YEARS I,
