HMrirri ’ After several days of beautiful weather, it seems I’m torn be tween sprucing up the house and getting outside with the children to enjoy the beauty of the country side. I want to finish house cleaning so I can get outdoors, i But I’m afraid all enthu siasm and longing to do both things would be wasted without the many conveniences of modern living. With today’s appliances, I have time to do my work and enjoy outdoor activities, too. And even though we live beyond city gas mains, we can use all the latest appliances because we have our own “gas well,” thanks to the help of our LP-gas service. 1 And speaking of helpers, my most enthusiastic “assistant” is our wee Sally. Her favorite chore is taking her fuzzy animal toys out of our new LP-Gas dryer after they’ve been laundered. The dryer fluffs them up so much better than hanging them im the line. -• j* , .

"Levy of poll tax. —(1) There shall be levied by the 1 board of county commissioners in each county a tax of two dollars ($2.00) on each taxable poll or male person between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years, and the taxes levied and collected under this section shall be for the benefit of the public school fund and the poor of the county. . . - - \ • Chapter 105, Section 307. “Duty to list; penalty for failure. —lt shall be the duty of every person, firm or corporation, in whose name any property or poll with the proper list taker or the supervisor, within the time allowed by law, .on a list setting forth the information required by this subchapter. . .” Chapter 163, Section 25, Sub-section (h). “If a person remove to the -District of Columbia, or other federal territory, to engage In the government service, he shall not be considered to have lost his residence in this State during the period of such service, and the place where such person resided at the time of his removal shall be considered and held to be his place of residence. . According to the Tax Records of Cleveland County Basil Whitener’s Opponent has not paid any poll tax for several years. o Does This Man Not Consider Himself A Resident of the County he claims his home? Isn’t It true that In a paid political ad that Basil Whiteness opponent stated that he maintained a home at 2828 Albemwrie Road, N. W., Washington, D. C. and also an apartment at the Mayflower Hotel in the same city? Elect A Man Who Was Raised Here And Stayed Here BASIL L. WHITENER TO CONGRESS "Watch WBTV Friday, dune 22nd at 10:00 p. m.” And here are some special jobs I’ve learned my gas drier can do: • You don’t'have to worry about “moth hall” odor in woolen clothes and blankets. When the time comes to bring them out of hiber nation, just tumble them in the dryer for a-few minutes. They’ll come out fresh and sweet in no time. • Dryers can steam out wrinkles from wool dresses or skirts. Put them in the tumbler with a few damp towels to provide necessary moisture. - - -- ■ • “Wash and wear” fabrics come out fine. Even durably pleated cotton skirts are smoother than when hung up to dry. And no more drizzle on the kitchen floor! • Before storing the snow suits and jackets with alpaca or fur fabric collars, wash them in the automatic washer. Then toss them in the dryer—set at low heat. The collars will remain Boft and flexible instead of stiff. • Starched dresses and shirts are a “breeze.” The secret is to take them out of the dryer while they’re still damp and roll them imme diately. Makes ironing lots easier. Automatic clothes dryers pay an extra dividend in another way. They make just a few clothes go a long way. Shorts, jeans and play clothes can be worn practically day in and day out. Washing and dry ing takes only a few minutes time, come rain or shine, so wardrobe budget savings really mount up when children need fewer clothes. I ACCIDENT facts; ms Haleigh- Mechanical faults caused 70 of North Carolina’s fatal iUtomobile crack ups last year, the Motor Vehicles Department has determined from a study of acci ent facts. Broken down, the agency isted defects which contributed to ’he death crashes as: Brakes 22, • deadlights 2, Rear lights 2, other ights or Reflectors 1, Steering 3, . ind Tires 27. Thirteen were listed -s “other defects.” In all there were i 031 fatal accidents. COUNTY STREAMS STOCKED WITH TROUT In accordance with previously approved plans, the Wildlife Re sources Commission has completed stocking of 1,300 trout averaging 3to 14 inches in length, in the waters of South Toe River, Neal, Upper, North Fork, Lower, Curtis and Newberry creeks. These fish were produced at the State Fish Hatchery located near Mjarion, N. C. District game and fish protector Lee Boone directed the release of the fish and solicited * assistance from members of the local wild life club and other interested sportsmen. Those participating in the stocking were: B. M. Rector, Jack Kerkland, and Lee Boone. The Wildlife Resources Commi ssion points out that the coopera tive effort of all those interested in the State’s fish and game re sources will be required to bring about better fishing, the favorite outdoor recreation of so many Americans.
