TAYLOR News this week is pretty scarce due to the long seige of rainy weather, but even at that, every cloud must have its silver lining Since the weather has cleared, it seems the shrubs are busily put ting forth new shoots, and the rye grass planted is beginning to make a lovely showing. Those who haven't planted theirs as yet should get busy because their lawns will certainly make a poor appearance in their drab brown as compared with the vivid velvet green of rye grass lawns. Doubtless you've read in THE NEWS-TIMES about the free soil testing stations that have been set up in the county for two weeks. This public service is available not only to farmers but home garden ers as well. But people are funny . . . if they had to pay a little some thing to have their soil tested, chances are they'd respond more readily than they would since the service is free. If you're wondering why certain shrubs or flowers don't do well on your property, and thrive on others, chances are you're using the wrong fertilizer analysis, and that's where this service is so bene ficial. Why not drop by Gaskill's Store here in town and receive the re gulation boxes for deposit of your soil and full instructions as to the procedure? They'll be sent to Ra leigh, analysed, and returned with complete information as to what type fertilizer your land requires for best results. Take advantage of this service today. Though activity has been slow, there have been some improve ments made. Mayor Piggie Potter has cleared the big lot back of his home, making it almost possible to see all the way across the block . . . hear he's also planning to bull doze and clean his business pro perties up town . . . Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Guthrie have purchased two big residential building lots in Glendale Park, and are planning to start their new home as soon as possible . . . and one of the most beautiful remodel-, ing jobs in town was recently j completed at the Hugh Salter's Three Family Members Observe Birthdays Mr. and Mri. L. C. Dickinson en tertained at a family dinner Sun* day at their home, honoring three ntemberi of tMelr family who were observing birthdays. The guests of honor were their daughter, Mrs. Carlton Robinson; their granddaughter, Miss Nancy Mellon; and their daughter-in-law, Mr*. L. C. Dickinson Jr. home. A carport, new windows, and lull upstairs with three big bedrooms, bath, and tremendous closet space has truly made this one of the prettier homes in town, and one whose yard is always kept at the peak of cleanliness and beauty. Comments Heard in Passing: Wouldn't a planned beautification program for the entire town of Beaufort be more beneficial than individual home-owners each act ing on his own, especially with the idea of the town being at its prettiest during the Centennial next year? ... In towns and cities where real old homes are a heritage of the community, most of them have "antique gardens" planned in keep ing with the period of the house. Shouldn't, and couldn't, this be done in Beaufort? What about having an "antique garden" on the site of the proposed Museum, or reserve a small portion of the courthouse grounds for this purpose? . . . It's been noted that the older homes in New Bern bear neat plaques or shield! noting the dates and ages of those homes. Would residents in Beaufort like to have the same on the show places and older homes in town? They help tourists find places of greater interest, but are small enough not to detract ffom the overall appearance of the resi dence. Just a reminder that Thurtday night, Oct. 29, at 8 o'clock there'll be a gathering at the Scout Build ing to determine whether enough residents are interested in forming a Garden Club. When you attend this first meeting . . . and we hope all of you will . . . bring a seed ling or rooting to exchange with other persons present. Make your plans now to attend.

QUAMT SSSMBSISSHT Chalk Dwit First Report Cards Go Out Betas Initiate New Members By JOANNE ALLEN One-sixth of the school year has already passed. Because of this, report cards have been issued for the first time. One unusual change in the re ports was the absence of conduct grades. This year conduct is based on the honor system instead of grades. Were you ancf your parents proud of your first report card? If not, try exerting a little more effort next six weeks. No. the circus had not derided to educate its clowns. It was just Beta Club Initiation Day at BH8. Funnier sights were never seen at the school.
