Four of theae meetlnga have already bean held at Aahevllle, Hickory, Lex Incton and Fayettevllle, The final -two meetings will be held Octo ber 28 at Greenville and October 29 at Raleigh, '. Aa agreement has been signed between the State Board of Health .and the State Department of So cial Services. The introduction of the agreement states, "Regard less of the fact that North Caro lina has pioneered In the field of tartly planning, and regardless '.Tt the fact that some type of fam :ily planning Is available In 9 7 per .cent of the counties, there are 'still great unmet needs In this Jleld of service. ; "There are still many women "who need and desire such ser vice to whom such service Is not tvallable. Whatever the facts :-'mlght be which obstruct patients firom obtaining such service, the .obstruction must bereroved and ::famlly planning must be made available to all who need and de ;;etre these services." X The purpose of the district meetings are to encourage local l-offlclals to devise a similar 'agreement for expanded family : planning services aimed at form er, present, and potential AFDC Aid to Families with Dependent ;Z Children; recipients. ; .

The largest financial share of the services and supplies would come from the Federal govern ment. A breakdown shows 75 per cent Federal financing, 12-12 per cent State funds and 12-12 per cent county money. The next step Is for county of ficials to determine If such an agreement will be made between social services and health de partments. The agreement will then be submitted to the State Department of Social Services for approval. Once approved and the local matching money assured, the lo cal departments of social ser vices will determine eligibility and refer people to the local health departments for services. The health departments will be paid on an approved cost per pa tient fee by the department of so cial services. This cost could In clude transportation Into and from the clinic. The costs for such services by private physicians or through outpatient clinics or inpatient facilities of licensed hospitals may also be paid for on a rea sonable cost basis by the depart ment of social services. The legislation to expand fam ily planning was adopted wlthcer tain factors In mind, such as the population explosion, the Juvenile delinquency problem, the high birth rate among low Income fam ilies, and the rlslngrateof births out of wedlock.

HERTFORD, NC ByPaulSnoohhite Why I am proud of my Bometownt Beoause tt la a town of friendly people. It's climate le wonderful and mild all year round, And plenty of beautiful flowers and tall church steeples, B'a located on the beautiful Perquimans River, , That flows Into the Historic Albemarle Sound. , At times you feel like you could (ate at tt forever. Especially when the moon le shining down. :..;.;r: i r Hertford la a town of a very High Hono'r, It is now part of that beautiful ole Causeway. A home of famous people Including Jimmy "Catfish" Hunter, And that famous song "The Carolina Moon" was once composed here ; and will always be sung and played, v. !:'? '':..'. "' K Hertford la a town with a variety of beautiful shady trees, Where the birds sing all the day, : ' , Where you can always enjoy the southern breese. Where you can put all of your worries away. 't You can go north up toMaine or South to Florida, Or as far west as the San Francisco Bay And you won't see anything as beautiful as the Perquimans Water, When the moon Is full and shining on the Ole Causeway, ' If you ever see Vinegar Valley you will want to go back. With It's moss covered trees, it's a beautiful sight on any bright Winter day, c There is only two ways to see It, either in a boat or walk the railroad track. It's west across the River from that famous Causeway. - Hertford hss Just as pretty homes as there are on earth, Everyone knows that that is an honest trueful fact. Good city lawmen and a very good county Sheriff. And most everybody that has ever left Hertford loves to get back. Hertford is a beautiful town that is peaceful and quiet. Some people complain because it won't grow. But whether you like Hertford or not, I wouldn't trajde. it for Los Angeles, New York or San Francisco. The children of Hertford are intelligent, honest, neat and clean. They all carry that Dixie smile on their young face. Some of them ae full of fun but not mean. They are taught to worship God and keep the faith. I have seen little boys that have grown up to be strong men Like acorns that grew "into being strong great oaks. I have seen little girls that have grown up to be famous to the end. You will find plenty of both among the Hertford Folk. I have seen little Hertford boys many years ago play baseball. Today the same boys have little grandsons playing the same game. To see them grow up It has been a pleasure to watch them all. Of course I know that I am aging If you could name all of the cities best, ' And named all the postoffices large and small across our country all the way, North, South, East or in the Center or out west, You will only find one Hertford In the whole U. S. A. The Hertford people are always friendly they smllewhen they speak. Most of them will do you a favor If Some will even hollar at you across Yes, folks Hertford is town where you can always find a friend.
