Vacation time is the season when many a nice girl goes astray. She meets new friends, different from her neighborhood pals. ? She visits new places, unlike those to which she has been accustomed. Unless her parents have alerted her to some of the little dangers which might be lurking in unexpected waysides, she might not sense it until she is entangled in an unde sirable web. Most summer hcartaches evolve from a handful of missteps. If i girl would just make a clear ap praisal of any proposition that hasn't been encountered before, asking herself whether there arc any drawbacks, she'd have nothing to worry about. Here are some suggestions: 1. It doesn't pay to waste time with married men. And don't be lieve 'em when they say their wives want them to have fun. So what? While you're flitting away time with an older man, you'll probably pass up a nice young man your own age. 2. "Even if your family permits you to have cocktails at home, | don't drink with strangers. If you are partying with a group and it seems like the thing to do. accept a drink, sip it occasionally, if you like. But don't think you must drink to keep up with a crowd. 3. Things are likely to get very cozy at summer resorts. People have been known to scurry back and forth to each other's rooms. The first thing you know you ire likely to be partying in a gay wolf's room in the wee hours of the morn. Of course he'll look harmless, at first ? r they all do. Make a rule not to visit boys' rooms. 4. If you are asked to go for a moonlight sail, make sure you have company that is trustworthy. It is not enough that other young girls are being paired off with young men. You should know how well these girls know their male com panions. and you should be very well acquainted with your own date. Unless you are a super swimmer you'll need the coopera tion of the captain to get back home from a canoe, rdwboat, power or sailboat trip. 5. Picnics are fun. But don't go to out-of-the-way picnic areas with strange companions. That "darling boy" you met last night can be Just as fiendish as any drug store cowboy. If you plan to go picnicking with a new beau, suggest another couple whom you know well to accompany you. 8. If you are on a two-weeks vacation or working at a resort, don't tie up with one man ? that's one way to spoil your summer. Men seem more attractive in sum mer and girls are likely to be more romantic than at other sea sons of the year. Moonlight and nature's other enchanting props can help steal a girl's heart away. When she arrives back home and sits by the telephone waiting for that devoted summer swain to call, chances are ahe'll be disappointed. 1. If a young man suggests you go away for a weekend with him or his crowd, discuss it with your family. They should know where Greece Seeks Tips oa Power (ir ewe looks to North Carolina for lips on how to improve and expand its electric service.

Home Hints By Ruth Current State Home Demonstration Agent There .are many everyday house hold tasks that may hide a danger that is very real and impending ? even though it can't be seen! This is a good point to keep in mind, particularly since National Farm Safety week comes up July 20-26, pointed out specialists of the State College Extension service. Take washing your clothes, for example. You don't ordinarily as sociate tragedy with this very com mon practice. Of course, if you work with the older wringer type machine, there's always, the ianger of catching your clothing, your hair, or little Johnny's fingers. Rut there is another hazard associated with washing clothes that strikes with more tragic results. According to U. S. Department of Agriculture specialists, there is the possibility of being shocked if ^our electric appliances used with tlrater or in damp places aren't troperly grounded. Without ihis ery necessary protection, a :;tray current, seeking the easiest way to the ground, may run through your body. Some manufacturers equip their n\achines with a cord that grounds the machine wherever it is plugged in. These special cords have a three-pronged plug that requires a three-hole outlet to fit it. Some other washers have a three-wire cord and a two-prong plug that fits into the conventional socket. The third wire in this cord is used for grounding purposes. It branches off the cord near the plug and goes into a tiny socket that replaces one of the screws holding the cover plate in place. This method is very effective if the from the easy seat of a Model B ? ? ?? BOSS YOMK WORK i Farm from the seat of this field-size tractor! Keep your farming on time; do your work faster and better.

Most of these crews are specialized, they either concen trate on truck crops, berry crops, tobacco, grain harvesting or any one of many types of harvesting. "If the farmer expands his op erations to take care of your de mands, then he must plan ahead for his labor to help him place on the market the crops that he has planted and tended. "Not only are the consumers and the growers concerned with farm labor because this labor raises the buying power of a community, not only while they are in it but after they leave. It is a well known economic fact that actual wealth (buying power) must be earned to profit any group as a whole. The money these people bring into a community helps raise the standard of living of that community whether they be grower, merchant, tisherman, or fireman. "Houses must be constructed to house these workers. When better housing is provided by the grower he profits in that he can g?t more and better labor. He can choose rather than take what he can get.
