Gloucester Club Helps With Mosquito Control By MARTHA BAftVETT Home Agent At the regular July meeting of Gloucester Club, member* decided to assist with mosquito control In their community Mr. Murray Pig ott plans to spray ditches and other places which might breed mosqui toes. Home Demonstration Club mem bers will ^ontact the 45 families of Gloucester community and ask for a $2 contribution. This (2 will be used to buy an adaptor for truck or tractor to be used in spraying. This is part of the effort to control mosquitoes in eastern Carteret County. Plans to buy a picnic table and clean up a lot near Pigott's store were discussed. Miss Josie Pigott was appointed to buy the table. Table and picnic grounds will be available to people in Gloucester community and also to visitors. Plans were also made for a county fair booth on "Good Liter ature Vs. Bad." This is Gloucester's first fair booth. All members were invited to make suggestions and contributions. According to Extension Horticul tural Specialist, now is the time to root scuppernongs and other va rieties of Muscadine grapes. Root ing is done by a method known as layering. Layering is done by bend ing a cane down and burying it in laboratory in the interest of na tional defense. The speaker said the worth of the Duke laboratory has been shown in th? research which has been completed by students and expressed the hope that such ef fective research will continue, con tributing to the general science of biology. lie expressed regret that Dr. A. S. Pearse, Duke faculty member largely responsible for the marine station, could not be present. Following the program a shrimp supper was served by the water a: 'the boat house. II a trench six inches deep. Leave a tip el the cane uncovered. He move lea vex from that part of the cane placed underground. Roots will form ?t the covered joints and a new plant will be ready to cut away from the parent cane and ready for planting in December. Meantime, keep the soil damp. There'a nothing better than a glass of scuppernong jelly, and now is the time to start those new vines. Plans are now being made for our club demonstration program for 1955. Club members are in vited to send any suggestions for a special interest meeting or monthly program to the home agent's office. A program planning committee, consisting of county leaders, county council officers and club presidents will meet early in August to make a tentative plan of work for next year. All suggest ions should be sent in at once in order for them to be considered. Vo-Ag (Continued from P*ge 1) ture course unless a building is available. Mr. Joslyn said he told Mr. El liott the Smyrna PTA has been working for three years to raise money for the vo-ag program an-d he felt the state could not "let them down" if there is enough money available to pay a voca tional-agriculture instructor. Mr. Elliott asked if Mr. Joslyn would promise him that a build ing would be put up at the first opportunity. Mr. Joslyn replied that he couldn't make such a promise be cause he may not always be around to fulfill it. Mr. Elliott then agreed to the room-under-t he-stage plan, saying that he had known Mr. Joslyn a long time and valued his opinion on school matters. Mr. Joslyn said he was pleased to be jiblcJto-xaport that- Smyrna has the money available to equip a vo-ag shop. Purchases of ma chinery will be made by the vo-ag instructor in consultation with state vocational educators. The $5,400 will not provide a lot of equipment but it will be enough, he declared. He added too that Smyrna's good fortune is illustrative of (he fact that people who get out and help themselves frequently are able to get help from other sources sooner than if they just sat back and make demands. Beauty (Continued from Page 1) The net and float backdrop on the stage was provided by the Midyette Net and Twine Co. and the stage, located between the Sea Level Inn and the newly-built store was built by F.

Beauty Speaks At FHA Meeting In welcoming delegates yester day to the Farm Home Adminis tration meeting at the Ocean King Hotel, Atlantic Beach, Miss Betty Jo Ring, "Miss North Carolina," said, "You parents shouldn't be afraid to allow your daughters to enter this pageant. Alter you en ter, you find out just how won derful the people of North Caro lina are." The 24-year-old school teacher from Lexington also said, "The con test isn't based completely on' beauty and the figure. Talent, poise and personality play a great part in the selection. The contest is conducted strictly according to the best ethical standards. And being a pari of the contest is an education in itself." Miss Ring told the group that she was very happy and proud to be chosen "Miss North Carolina'' and that she was extremely pleased that she had been invited to welcome the FHA delegates. | Anybody Know E.

The blaze, located near Highway 70 west of Newport was quickly ex tinguished. All fire calls must have a report and E. Y. is needed : to complete the report ? but no i one by that name gets mail on a 1 rural route. Any information would be appre- i dated, says Fire Chief Leon Mann Jr. South Koreans Defend Islet Against Japanese Seoul ( AP) ?
