Moreover, only about half of those whose hypertension has been detected are under treat ment. High blood pressure is often symptomless.

BOOX CORNER | J j?3f Mrs. Gladys Coletta | Zelda, a biography by Nancy Milford.. 1970. Pp. 383. Harper & Row, Publishers, N.Y. “Pleasures are like poppies, spread; you seize the flow'r- its bloom is shed’—Burns. Like wise, the lives of both Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald reflect their futile quest for pleasure, which left them no peace during the dizzy era of the Roaring Twen ties. The biography of Zelda by Nancy Milford, reveals a life whicn flickered fitfully as a candle, soon burning itself out. Neither Scott nor Zelda Fitzgerald could live with, or without, each other. Each ex pected the other to be a bulwark of strength, and in so doing, since neither could fulfill the other’s expectations, both be came failures in the eyes of their partner. It was as if in darjpg the other to be strong, a ' Bank Introduces \ New Check Program First-Citizens Bank & Trust Cpmpany has introduced the most innovative and consumer oriented check loan program of any bank in the Southeast. "The program, called Checkline Reserve, has two new features designed to meet the needs of the consumer in today's market”, Lewis R. Holding, president of First- Citizens Bank, said. The first key part of the new First-Citizens Bank program is lower interest rates. Interest charges are based on simple interest and the maximum charged will always be less than the legal limit allowed by North Carolina law. Further, the interest rate charged the customer will be been purchased for the Festival through private donations. Season tickets for *he five concerts in Burnsville may be purchased for SB.OO and can be used in any way the holder desires, either by taking the whole family to one or two concerts or by attending each of the five Sundays. The Friend ship Concert is an innovation of further interest to season ticket holders.

All tickets may be purchased through Music in the Moun tains, Burnsville, N.C. 28714 or at several convenient locations including: The Yancey County Countfy Store or the Nu-Wray Inn in Burnsville, the Wilma- Eloise Shop or the Office Supply Co., in Spruce Pine, or at Warren Wilson College.

Pleasure-mad and power-hungry, they rode the crest of the wave of their popularity until they were ex hausted. The sky was the limit, and they lived dangerously. Too much too fast courts disaster. Broken in mind and body, Zelda collapsed first and was confined many times to mental institutions. Scott, al though weak and unstable, did not show the wear and tear of reckless living as much as she. However, alcoholism and tuber culosis took their toll of him ultimately. What began as the romance of the century ended with broken fives and heart aches. “Zelda came full circle to her origin. She was the Ameri can girl living the American dream, and she became mad within it.” C7 determined by the customer’s profile together with the cus tomer’s checking account rela tionship with the bank. Interest rates can be as low as 12 percent annual percentage rate. The second feature relates to exact transfer of money needed. Most check loan programs make advances to checking accounts in SIOO minimums, while First- Citizens’ new service will trans fer only the exact amount of money needed to the customer’s account. This aspect of the program reduces the interest charges, as the customer only pays interest on the exact amount he needs to borrow. The program is available in. all 200 offices of First-Citizens throughout North Carolina.
