. Are you taking advantage of
i the services provided by the
' College of the Albemarle and
', other technical institutes in our
? part of the state? Community
. colleges and technical institutes
. provide many services for our
older citizens. These schools are
- viewed as an educational
delivery system; which can
-provide educational op
i portunities to all adults at all
leels of life and for all ages.
The philosophy of adult
' education as practiced in the
. North 'Carolina Community
. College System is one which
. demonstrates the belief in life
; long learning. These institutions
1 attempt to provide learning
. opportunities for senior citizens
.: who have a desire to learn.
' One of the most significant
programs which has been of
t . fered for this aue group is that
of Adult Basic Kducation. It has
' been found that there are many
: adults in the State who, for one
reason or another, were not able
;v . to complete their high school
work and many others who
were not even able to complete
T. elementary (. ml work to the
i degree that tin y can read or
, .write.
Graduating classes ot adults
in recent years have had numer
' ous gray heads among the
; "mod" head-ofhair look of
younger boys and the "falls"
and "shas" of younger girls.
'.''' Many adults have come to an
institution saying that they
wanted to learn to read so that
they could read the Scriptures
and letters from their children.
They also wanted to learn to
," write so that they could answer
those letters from their
children
In addition to the academic
opportunity provided, the
community colleges also have
numerous special interest
courses. Many senior citizens
have taken .advantage of
courses in painting, flower
arranging, and decoupage, and
in discussion groups. Many of
the more financially secure
adults haw been very much
.interested in courses on
securities imcslnient and real
estate,

bracket have received much
enjoyment from attending
lectures, concerts, and dramas
that have been'performed under
the auspices of the Community
College System. There are
many others who prefer to work
alone and who have found much
satisfaction in the in
dividualized learning concept of
the learning laboratories.
These opportunities are
viewed as only the beginning of
services to the older citizens of
North Carolina. These in
stitutions are working to change
the attitude which many have
toward education-that it is only
for the young-and to convince
all citizens that education is for
all ages and that all people,
regardless of their ages and
their stations in life, need to
continue their education.
It is known that in 1969 45
percent of all illiterates survey
ed by the Bureau of the C ensus
were 05 years of age or older.
These people continue to have a
real need and, even though their
working years might be fewer,
many still have much to con
tribute to society and their
communities by becoming
better educated individuals.
In order for community
colleges and technical institutes
to be totally effective, the real
needs of the senior citizens must
be known. Every senior citizen
is urged to visit the community
college or technical institute in
his area and to talk to the local
Director of Adult Education
about learning opportunities for
his age group at that school.
Rash Preacher
A young man and woman
were thinking of getting mar
ried. They finally decided
that right after church serv
ice on a certain Sunday
would be all right. They in
formed the minister, so at
the close of his service he
announced that those who
wished to get married should
come forward at this time.
He was embarrassed to see
15 women and one man com
ing up the aisles.

obtain price support loans on
their 1972 production at the rate
of $1.22 per bushel. Corn placed
under loan may be stored on the
farm or in an approved
warehouse.
These loans may be obtained
at the county office, and many
producers are taking advantage
of the program which permits
them to wait for the usual ad
vance in prices after harvest
time.
Under the price support
program, producers may obtain
low interest loans (3M; per cent
per annum) on their production
and still retain title to their
corn. Should the market price
advance or the producer desire
to feed his corn, he can repay
the loan, plus interest, land
market or feed the corn as he
sees fit. If the market price does
not advance to a point where the
producer can obtain a profit by
repaying the loan, he may
deliver the corn to CCC at
maturity.
FARM OPERATION
CHANGES
Any changes in farm
operations or ownership for 1973

RECORDS
..Cotton producers 'are
reminded that cotton yields for

the actual cotton production for
the 1972 crop. Producers will be
required to furnish the county
office with sales receipts, price
support loan records, gin bale
numbers Where producer's

that ' submission of false
production records will result in
ineligibility for cotton program
payments for each year the
false production is used.
