This occasion was taken to show deep appreciation to the men of the parish and community who have been so tangibly helpful in the up-keep of the parish buildings. A mythical St. Margaret Mary Academy of Practical and Industrial Sciences was instituted and diplomas issued from it to these men. Right Reverend Monsignor Hugh Dolan, presently pastor of St. Benedict’s, Greensboro, former pastor of St. Margaret Mary, and recently designated a Domestic Prelate by His Holiness, Pope Pius XII, congratulated the men for their very practical cooperation in the parish. A token of congratula tion was presented to Monsignor Dolan by Mrs. Robert Whittington, president of the local Altar Society.

'Rooming-In' For New-born Infants Gets A Boost “Rot .nini; In: Modern Medicine Goes Old-Fashioned” was the sub ject of an address given last week by Dr. Frank Howard Richardson before the pediatrician section of the Southern Medical Association in session at Dallas, Texas. Rooming-in, as opposed to the general policy of segregating new-born infants in large hos pital nurseries, is currently a subject for warm debate among doctors. Dr. Richardson said it was just one part of a snowballing return to recognized procedures of yesteryear. Attjempts are growing, he said, to recapture some of the folkways which have been replaced by the highly scientific. Rooming-in means that an in fant is placed in a bassinet at the mother’s bedside almost from the time he is born, “instead of herd ing him into a room with thirty other crying mites.” The mother can cuddle and love her baby as long as she wants—but not a bit —Turn to Page 8, this Sec. Water Supply Is Still Short Although we have had a good deal of rain lately, the water in the reservoir is not much higher. At its lowest point the water was seven feet below the normal level. Recent rains raised this only 18 inches. So the restrictions already in effect are still neces sary and must be continued, at least for awhile. If the rains keep up, we hope that restrictions can soon be lifted because the town is losing much revenue as long as they are in force. W. Dean Willis, town clerk.
