This means that we have pone a long way toward conquering childhood ailments, thus permitt ing people to get into old age so that the degenerative diseases can have a chance at them. Its like that old song of World War 1 days: "If the Camels _<lon t get you, the Fatimas must." Of course, State Health Officer Hoy Norton, from whom we got these figures, says the health people and physicians have about stamped out communicable di seases and will now turn to a more detailed study of the degen erative ones. Well, Doc. Norton, there’s no time to waste getting started on this new project. e are all heading for old age and attendant diseases fast, eery dav we live. Frankly, we dun t see how you can win out, to save your life—or ours either. Take, for instance, l'i < Arm 1 Smith’s wife. She warned him soon after they were married that he was going to kill himself eating. He didn’t say a word except "I believe I’ll have another piece of pie.” . , Well, of course, Uncle Arnie s wife was right, for at the age of 89 he "just laid right down and died.” Hard To Find — In proportion to salary received, the work of an assistant attorney general here in Raleigh is about the most diff icult going. It is no secret that Harry McMullan’s office is short staffed. He just doesn’t have enough assistant attorney gen erals to attend to all the multitud inous duties now assigned to that office. Somehow, through sharp organization and long and tedious hours, it gets done. But that is one reason it isn’t going to be easy to find a cap able attorney to succeed Hughes Rhodes who died three weeks ago Questions on a wide variety oi matters which come into Me Mullan’s office every day woulc test the mind of a Solomon. It’: a good place to learn law, bu hardly a nook to sit down for i nice, comfortable old age exist ence. Positions in the office carr; some prestige and sometimes leac L to lucrative jobs with corporations able to pay better salaries than the state. \ ,w and then one (rets promot ed'with the state- as George Pat ton of Franklin, who was an assist ant attorney general, then at torney for the State Highway Com mission. From there, he became a became special superior court judge at the hands of Gov. Cherry in l‘>47. He was reappointed for another two years last week by Gov. Scott.

We Americans don't get mad easy. But when we do, look out! We pitch in and turn out guns, tanks, planes and ships faster than anybody else on earth. But nobody boots us into line. No commissars. No bayonets. No slave labor. We Just get to work— because we've got something to work for ... our liberties and our freedoms. And back of our men and machines is electric power—as much as all the rest of the world has. It's steady, dependable power—the kind provided by our business-managed electric light and power companies—the kind that helped perform production miracles in World War II. Today, these companies have doubled the supply of electric power available before that war—and they're stepping it up all the time. Yessir, we have power--with more on the way-" and we know how to use it. That's a good thing for everybody to remember right now. And it's a thing for some people here at home to remember when they say "the government" could do a better . of running the electric light and power business. • MEET CORLISS ARCHER — Sundays — CflS—9 P.
