It is only when a reader can take words apart and put words together from parts that he is mastering the skills of reading, This ability to see and hear parts of words is the key to unlock most new words. When a familiar word part is recognized in a new word, half the battle is over Because of this aspect of reading, Mrs. Monds took her ESEA special reading classes from Hertford Grammar School on shopping sprees to Colonial Stores. They went, not to shop for groceries, but for words or word parts that is. , Each chUd made a word bag to hold his "purchases" and carried along his shopping list. He had previously decided what word part he would be shopping for. Back at school the shoppers "unpacked" their "purchases" and compared word items they had found. ' Theiecond grade wrote this story about their trip: "One day we went to the Colonial Store. We shopped for words. We found a whole bunch of words. The words were on the windows, on papers, on cans, on packages, on signs, and on all sorts of things. We found over fifty words. We were lucky. On the way we saw a long train come by. We had a lot of fun." tion were in charge of the Fellowship Service at Saunders Grove Church Sunday night. Morning worship services were at New Haven Sunday with Rev. Butler Sharpe, pastor.

Their books carry pat terns for men, women and children, points out Har riet Tutterow, extension clothing specialist, North Carolina State University. Designs range from fancy ballroom styles to every day wear. ' To help make the cos tume authentic, Miss Tut terow suggests you con sider what purpose the clothing served. For frontier women, clothes were functional. A warm, one-piece dress, a plain shawl and apron often served as daily at tire, r .:.. Homespun fabrics were used , originally, so you may wish to select hop sacking or a textured woven material with nubs or alubs in the weave. Solid colors are authen tic yellows, greens, browns and blues. For a dressier version, the spe cialist recommends striped or floral chintz fabrics. North Carolina has lost farms at a faster rate than any other state in the nation for the past two years but, with 125,000 farms remaining, ranks behind only Texas, Mis- : souri and Iowa. The number of Tar Heel farms declined by about 10,000 during the last two years. In. fact, 22 per cent of the national decline in farms occurred in North Carolina.
