Southern Biscuit Flour It’s “Soft Sifted” For Best Results in all Baking Needs Sold by Good Grocers Everywhere Author Poe By Nancy von Lazar How did the women at home , keep the Union officers from taking all their food and pos- I sessions during- the War? One lady strung up a bee hive at her front door and ' tied a string to it, which she < carried into her home. W hen ■ the Yankee officers came, she pulled the string, upset ting the hive and loosing the bees on the unwelcome visit ors. Another lady lied a bit when the officers wanted to take a jar of lard.

It is not so much the j historical side of the War as the personal which is eaptur- i ed in a new book to be pub- J lished by the University of North Carolina Press. j Entitled, “True Tales of : the South at War: How sola- % iers Fought and Families Lived, 1861-1965,” the book £ is the brain child of Raleigh's 1 Dr. Clarence Poe, senior ed- « itor and board chairman of ^ ‘‘The Progressive Farmer” magazine. i The son of a Confederate soldier, Poe has been interest- 1 ed in gathering stories of the Civil War and with the thought ^ of bringing a host of them to ( Civil War enthusiests. 1 In 1960, Poe appealed to ] his magazine audience, asking them to send him authentic records and memories of the 1 War. He acquired a great ] store of tales which will de- i light both young and old alike. Poe also drew upon the help t of editors, historians, librar ians, and archivists to present ■ the book which will be pub- ’ lished on December 2. Some selections in the book * are reminiscences of the war. ^ Much is first-hand informa- . tion consisting of diaries and letters. i The eleven chapters of the 1 book, in the order of their presentation, are entitled: “The Changing Faces of War”; “The Reminiscences of Berry Greenwood Benson”; “War as 't It Came to Wives and Fami- ] lies at Home”; “Colonel L. L. i Polk’s Wartime Letters to his ! Wife”; “War When Soldiers ^ Were Not Fighting”; “Diary of a Soldier’s Wife on Look- , ing Glass Plantation”; “Some | Kindness Lightened Even ; Prisons”; “Diary of a Refugee in Richmond”; “Slaves Cheer ed and Helped Their Mas ters”; “Confusion and Chaos at the Confederacy’s Capi- , tal”; and “A Prodigal Sold ier’s Return.” The epilogue is entitled i “The Enduring Glory of Their ; Courage,” and ends the work with a quotation from the . diary of Mrs. Catherine Dever- ■ aux Edmonston of Looking Glass Plantation in Halifax ; county, N. C., which says, “December 31—So ends this terrible year of 1865. Thank God it is over! So now to our eggnog and brighter hopes for 1866.” From 1904 until 1954, Clar TOMORROW COULD BE TOO LATE!

C. i Bar Association) LIBEL AND SLANDER Is it a crime to publish ma v liciously matters which tend - to blacken the memory of a dead person? Yes. It is a crime to write l and publish defamatory matter ” of any deceased person if it is s done with the evil purpose of - injuring his family and pos i terity, and to expose them to contempt and disgrace. e The chief reason for pun f ishing offenses of this nature 1 is their tendency to a breach t of the peace.

No. The law has not seen fit to give a legal cause of ac tion for the defamation of a s dead person. s There are many criminal ac tions which do not give rise to • a recovery of damages in a !> civil suit. ■' May there be a recovery of ’ damages in a civil action for rj the slander or libel of a living person? s Yes. 4 May there be a recovery of s damages in a civil action for g the slander or libel of a living I person if this person dies be fore the civil action is • brought? No. This is one of the few actions which does not survive the death of the party in ® volved. Is it a crime to slander or r libel a living person? ;s Yes.

Probably not, unless you attempt to learn in advance what will be needed to process your claim. To assure prompt receipt of this first check you are en couraged to call at the Ashe ville social security office, or meet the representative, 2 to 3 months before retiring. Avoid that long wait between your last pay check and first social security payment. Are all your earnings cred ited to your social security ac count? If you cannot answer this question—and, particu larly, if you believe you have worked for an employer who did not report your wages for social security credit — the Asheville District Office or the representative will be glad to give you a pre-addressed postal card for the purpose of finding out. Your future so cial security payments will be based on the amounts credited to your account. Therefore, you will want to be sure you are receiving credit for all your earnings. Have you had an injury or an illness that has left you so disabled that you are unable to do any kind of work? If the victim is the breadwinner the family may be seriously affected. However, social se curity is playing an important role in the lives of many se verely disabled people and their dependents. So if you have a disabling condition that prevents you from working, contact your social security of fice or meet the representa tive to learn of your rights under this program. If y’ou wish medical advice you go to a doctor. If you want legal advice you consult your lawyer. If you wish any information about your pres ent or future social security status, write or call the Ashe ville district office, or meet the social security’ representa tive. is brought for slander or libel against a newspaper, periodi cal, radio or television station, the plaintiff or prosecutor must give a written notice o at least five days specifying m detail the alleged false and defamatory statements.
