Foster Wood Tells Confer- j ence “Half-Heartedness” Causes Divorces. Chapel Hill, July 9—ls there were more preparation for marriage and less half-hoartedness on tile part ( of husbands and wives, the divorce courts would not be so popular, was j the opinion of Rev. L. Foster Wood, ( of the federal council of the j churchns of Christ in America, in an address before tonight’s session of the second conference on mar riage and the family being held at the University of North Carolina this week. Deploring stunt marriages and' “half-hearted” casual attitudes on | the part of married people, Dr. Wood declared that there is such a thing as emotional stability in ev eryone, if it is cultivated. “The council,” he said, “appeals for marriage preparation because so many have failed merely because the husband and wife have not been instructed. He advocates a point of view that marriages have care just as individuals do. “A sick marriage is like a sick person,” he said. “Wq have hospitals for sick persons but none for sick marriages. If we did we would not have so many funeral homes for marriages. —the divorce courts.” A round-tablq discussion on “The Role of the Teacher in Counselling] and the Limitations of His Func- j tions” was led by Ralph P.

Describing the function of the council, Bridgman said that the or ganization helps teachers of family and parental subjects to study and improve their teaching and helps I the family and marriage counsellors to examine and evaluate their pro fessional work. Most of the work, he said, is done in universities where; education in family life and marriage is rapidly developing. TOBACCO PLANTS NEED VERY BEST OF CULTIVATION Conditional Plants Can be Greatly 1 Improved by Proper Cultural Methods. Unfavorable weather has turned the odds against North Carolina to bacco growers this year. In many sections the crop is expected to be far below normal. However, said E. Y. Floyd, exten sion tobacco specialist at State Col lege, the condition of the plants can be greatly improved, where they have not buttoned, by employing the proper cultural methods. It has been found that where ex cess rains have caused the plants to turn yellow, an improved root system can be developed. This will increase the leaf spread. Cultivating with a one-horse turn plow will break the soil around the plants and in the middles of the rows, FJoyd stated. A small moldboard with a Stone wall sweep, or a similar piece. of iron to the shank of the plow just behind the moldboard, with a longer bolt than normally used to hold the moldboard on the wing of the plow and to keep the attached wing in pladey will give good results. For small tobacco, six to eight inches high, it is best to use a small moldboard with a 10 or 12-inch sweep that is about two inches wide. For the last cultivation, about a Week before topping, the largest size wing or moldboard should be used with an 18-inch sweep 2 1-2 inches wide. Four furrows should be run when using the small swdqp for small to bacco, but two furrows are gener- Everlasting Snows which do not melt.. heights which do not dwindle ... power that can not weaken . . . these are the glories of the Matter horn, they are the glories of all that is eternal and bless ed by His divine hand.
