A DISTINCT LOSS TO
, PERQUIMANS
, Simultaneously with expressing our
-v, gratification at the appointment of
v ; Walter. H. Oakey," Jr., on the legal
staff "of the. Federal Trade Commia-:-V
sion,, we voice our. regret at the loss
I to Perquimans of Judge Oakey's ser-
;f viceMn tne Recorders court.
, .- Meting out justice not unmixed
with common sense, and giving to the
, ,v most obscure offender who came be
fore his tribunal the same thoughtful
consideration he gave to the leading
' . citixen of the community, he rendered
-. : the county invaluable service in the
- course of his seven years on the
bench, filling the position in such
manner as to gain the respect of the
; people of the county.
There, is little doubt, in our opinion,
that Judsre Oakev's nersistent efforts
i, ' to check the ever-increasing number
; . , "of traffic accidents had a direct bear-
' ing on the traffic situation in Perqui
' ..')' mans. It is a well-known fact that
- ., Judge Oakey acted under a strong
conviction that it was the duty of
the courts of North Carolina to co
operate with the law enforcement of
ficers in their efforts to regulate the
- v traffic situation, a conviction which
. ' he had. the courage to stand by.
His well-fcnown attitude toward
certain types of traffic law offenders,
wth special emphasis on the drunken
driver, had, we believe, a steadying
-influence on
the careless
and
the
xttHwghtlanK
May Judge : OaKey's' succesfeor'ar-,
ry on in such manner -that the. Per-,
ojiimans County Recorder's Court,
which has come to be recognised as(
an honorable institution, continue to
merit the respect which should be its
due.
Good definitions, even if not origi
nal: A gossip is one who talks to you
about others; a bore is one who talks
to you about himself, and a brilliant
conversationalist is one who talks to
you about yourself.

When washing dirty painted walls
with soapy Water containing a clean-'

a little flour is added to the water to
make a paste- The paste will hold the
mixture to the wall long enough for
the powder to dissolve the dirt.

PUREST RACE ON EARTH
DWELLING on hundreds of emer

to be the purest In existence the
San Bias Indians. 'The islands are
reached In forty-five minutes by sea
plane from Cristobal and the trip Is
one of the favored shore excursions
taken by travelers stopping off In
Panama on the weekly cruises to
South America.
The San Bias Indians have been
bred for probably more than a thou
sand years without Intermarriage
with foreigners or even with mem

recently that foreigners were ad

women of the tribe were permitted

T, e even heating of modern l.o.,,,
keeps alive through the winter many
insect household pests that once were
frozen in. chilly clothes -closets and
storage rooms. ' The Bureau ' of En
tomology and Plant!' quarantine says
that clothes moths, carpet' beetles;
mockroaches, eilverfish, and other
species often thrive the year around
in warm houses. , , . . '..
Frequent brushing sunning, and
airing of -woolen clothing andvfurs
during the winter will - do much: to
save tJiem from clothes moth and car
pet beetle J damage. , Slightly soiled
garments such as woo! sweaters and
socks are ' especially .attractive- to
moths. LittW-worn articles are best
cleaned and packed ' away in ' moth
proof containers vffth naphthalene or
pferadichlorobenzene flakes. '' Scrupu
lous cleaning , of all cracks and cor
ners of closets and other ; storage
places in ordinary use helps to keep
them free of insects.
Cleanliness ' is also a ' protection
against cockroaches. An immaculate
ly clean kitchen and all food stored
in the refrigerator or in insect-proof
containers will discourage cock
roaches. .
- The small, active, greyish, scale
covered insects known as silverfish
thrive , in damp, . warm basements.
They cause serious injury anywhere
in the house, feeding upon paper and
wallpaper, bopk-bindings, starchy -or
sweet food, and to some extent, bl
iBoncB, parucuiariy , rayon, ana on
starched clothing .or .curtains. ';f
They can be destroyed by a poison
bait made of 10Q parts of oatmeal, 8
parts of white arsenic, 6 parts of
granulated sugar, ; 24 parts of sa)t.
and water - ;to lnoisten. This' bait
must, be kept away from children and
pets.; Another method of getting rid
of silverfish is to sprinkle pyrethnlm
powder, where they run, or spray with
a mixture of kerosene or paradichlor
obenzene dissolved in carbon ' tetra
chloride. .
