In some instances such individuals have been so endowed because they are seventh sons of seventh sons. In other cases they are persons who have learned their secrets from non-rela tives. Specialists in this area are the burn-conjurers. A Vale reader writes that her father-in-law possessed burn-healing power, though Selling Your Home? Experts Get More How much money can you get for your home? Every day, thousands of Americans face that problem. Young executives on the move; elderly couples whose children have married and gone; retired people who want to move to sunnier climates or smaller apartments all are wondering what price tag to place on their homes. Obviously, too low a price will lose them money; per haps thousands of dollars. Conversely, too high a price will lift their home out of the market. How does one deter mine the right price? "The best answer,” accord ing to a nationally-known au thority on real estate, “is to place your home in the hands of a competent real estate broker, and consult with him about the best price.” This authority, Henry P. Carter, president of the Gal lery of Homes, a coast-to coast organization of local Realtors, further advises: “Your local real estate broker knows exactly what price homes in your commun ity have been bringing. And he knows how great the de- 3 bedroom home in town.

She writes: “Logic and science con vince me that removing a bum by conjuring is not possible, yet I once saw my father-in-law (who would not call himself a conjurer) remove a bum from a young child. “The little boy had spilled boiling water on himself and had large blisters that covered most of the side of one leg. My father-in-law breathed on the blisters and intoned some words that were not under standable to me.” mand may be at any specific time. Further, he has lists of prospective buyers, and, if the Realtor is one of our Gallery of Homes members, he is in constant communication with buyers in other areas who want to move into your community.” “Keep in mind,” says Car ter, “that your local Realtor is pledged to look out for your Interests first. He can do much for you beyond the first important step of helping you get the most for your home; he can screen ‘lookers’ from possible buyers.” "Your real estate* broker must give you, the seller, his undivided loyalty. He must make, by law, a continuous effort to sell your home. A ‘for sale’ sign out in front is just the beginning: he must advertise regularly. He must show prospective buyers through your home. He is bound to serve you fairly and honestly. He can assist a buyer to obtain financing, if necessary. In short, he is a specialist who can save you time and trouble. Finally, you’ll probably end up with more money than if you had tried to sell your home your self,” concluded Carter. .„ , ' i The writer goes Ota to say that the mother and child left after the treatment but returned the next morning to reveal an astounding change in the child’s condition. “To my amazement, the child’s skin was only lightly reddened where, the evening before, it had been blistered. I asked the woman if she had had the child’s burns treated by a doctor. She said that the only treatment the child had received was the breathing and the chant done by my father-in-law the previous day.” ' v The reader further notes that the mumbling or chant ing of the healer is done in such a manner that he will not be understood “for he will lose the ability to heal if he divulges the chant to anyone other than a blood relative who has inherited and be lieves in this ability.” One such chant is widely Reynolds Receives Beltone Award Thomas A. Reynolds of Beltone Hearing Service, 87 Patton Avenue, Asheville, the local authorized dealer for Beltone Electronics Corpora tion, has received the “Bel tone Pace Setter” award for outstanding service to the hard-of-hearing. Chicago-based Beltone, world leader in hearing aids and electronic hearing test instruments, presents the award annually to members of its dealer organization who have performed outstanding service during the past year. The “Pace Setter” award winners are selected from a field of approximately 400 authorized Beltone dealers in the United States and Cana da. Selection is based on the quality and extent of service to the hearing handicapped and contributions to company progress.

June 24,1976 c h 1 - /jrt r-j—Mr - 7v‘ known in the Appalachians and probably throughout the country. Thus the following lines no doubt have now lost their power: Two little angels out of the West, One named Fire and one named Frost. GoAway, Fire! Come, Frost! Dr. Cratis Williams, wide ly known Appalachian folklor ist, passes along a letter from Clintwood, Virginia, reader, Mr. Garland Hughes, who tells of the success of his father-in-law as a widely known wart-remover. “My father-in-law was a wart remover known for miles around for his cure, and was supposed to be quite success ful. Following is his cure: Take a twine string about 18” long and place one finger of one hand on top of the wart to be removed. Gently draw the string over the wart with the other hand through the top of the wart you are pressing. Do this to all warts to be removed. For each wart to be removed, you tie a knot in the string-five warts, five knots. You then bury the string under a rock on the North side of the house under the drain of the roof. When the string is half rotted-no more warts.” Apparently there were many other types of self styled healing specialists in the Appalachians in days gone by, including love doctors who used love po tions, bewitching powders, and various herbs to bring romance to the lonely. If readers know of such persons and practices, Folk-Ways would be a likely place to discuss them. Please address folk mater ial to Folk-Ways, Appalachian State University, Box 376, Boone, N.C. 28608.
