The check is made by placing an ob
ject one inch thick at the base of the
brake peral, and pushing down the
brake pedal. If it strikes the object
before the brakes begin to take hold,
they are inadequate and may be in
dangerous condition. Between April

check passenger cars involved (1) in
accidents, (2) in traffic violations in
which cars are moving, and (31 cars

There is no way of knowing how
long the war with Japan will last, but
it is a fact that the Japs are enemies
that must be beaten down to the last,
and for that reason we here at home
must continue the war effort to the
fullest extent. We should continue
to do everything possible to help has
ten the day when final victory is
won.
One of these things is the buying
of war bonds, lending the Government
the mpney needed to finance the Pa
cific war. Now that the Seventh
War Loan is in progress, we can
give an answer as to how the home
front is going to back the boys in the
fight against Japan. In the parlance
of baseball there are two out and

have to knock out the Japs . . . and

Nationwide Campaign Under Way to
Check Automobile Brakes
An automobile brake check pro
gram, sponsored by the International
Association of Chiefs of Police in co
operation with Government agencies,
started April 15 and will end June 1.
The purpose of the program is to
help save passenger cars from the
scrap heap, to maintain adequate
transportation for war workers, and
to reduce traffic accidents. In 1944,
it is estimated, some 250,000 cars
were scrapped after they were dam

Assignment of authorizations for
production of 57,816 additional do
mestic electric ranges during the
second, third and fourth quarters of
1945 has been announced by WPB.
Standard size four-burner ranges are
authorized to the amount of 44,816,
and the remaining 13,000 will be
three-burner apartment-type ranges.
About two-thirds of the range pro
duction authorized is expected to be
available to certified institutions and
individual consumer. The remainder
is intended for the military services
and for housing projects approved by
the National Housing Agency, WPB
said.

IN MEMORIAM
In memory of our father and hus
band, Allen Ulysses Winslow, who
departed this life four years ago,
May 22, 1941:
A happy home we once enjoyed,
How sweet that memory still.
But death has left a vacant chair
That none can ever 'fill. r
The old home now is broken,
No longer there we roam,
For father is at rest forever,
While once he made our home.
Some may think you are forgotten,
Though on earth you are no-more,
But in memory you still are with us
As you always were before.

Nearly every urban community in
the United States, regardless of its
size, seems to be imbued with the
idea that the greater the population.
the greater the municipality.
While there may be some differ
ence of opinion as to the advantages
of increased inhabitants, there is
much rivalry between municipalities
in the matter of acquiring larger
populations. The effort to attract
new residents receives attention from
the go-getters of the various booster
associations that add variety to mod
ern life.
While it is entirely proper to seek
to induce others to moveiiitc Hert
ford, there is much to be gained by
developing a program that will in
duce the boys and girls who grow up
in our midst to continue tiieir resi
dence here. This observation natur
ally applies to community efforts to
persuade local men and women now
in the active service of the nation to
make their homes in Hertford when
they are ready to begin private life
again.
That America's municipalities are
not meeting with success in their at
tempt to retain children who grow up
in their midst is revealed in a na
tionwide survey, recently completed
by the Institute of Student Opinion,
under the sponsorship of the Schol
astic Magazine.
More than 50,000 senior and junior'
high school students in 1,267 schoals
in all sections of the United States,
were asked whether they expected to
stay in their home town or commun
ity when they completed their educa
tion. Only thirty-five per cent said
that they expected to stay where
they now live and go to school.
In the small towns (2,500 to 10,000
population) seventy-five per cent oJ
the girls and seventy-three per cent
of the boys expect to leave.
In rural areas, eighty-three per
cent of the girls planned to go else
' where, with only seventy per cent of
the boys giving expression to similar
views.
We call attention to the comment
of M. R. Robinson, publisher of the
magazine which announced the poll's
results. He says: "Young people

MftQ am miwt ftiannt-Anf and amall

When a nation has been at war over a period of years, there naturally has to
be many changes in every day living. It affects every community, every per
son and every business, big and small. Therefore, we wish to say
Thanks
To
Our Customers
We thank you for your business during the past and the patience yoa have
shown in the delay of delivery of your purchases. We are sorry that condi
tions have been such that these delays happened, but we know that each one
of you has come to realize the labor conditions of times like these make it
almost impossible for operations to continue along normal lines.
We know that our setvice during the past year his not measured up to the
standard that we desire to give and have given in past years, but we hope
that you will bear in mind this was due to general labor conditions beyond
our control. We made every attempt to keep our service at the high level.
We closed .our mill for a period of three weeks in order to manufacture fer
tilizers to fill your orders as promptly as possible. Even then, there were de
lays in some cases. We sincerely hope that the delay in obtaining your pur
chases has not caused too great a set-back for our customers.
' We are proud of you Perquimans County Farmers for the big part you have
played in crop production during the war years, and know'that your efforts
have helped make it possible for America to continue as the best-fed nation
in the world.
Again, we want to say thanks for your patronage and patience during the past
year, and it is our hope that before another year passes the world will be
at peace and we may serve you as in yars gone by. '
It is time to buy Nitrate of Soda and' tand blaster. We will appreciate your
