CROSSNORE SCHOOL ASKS Gins OF OLD CLOTHING Mountain Institution Renders Aid To Poor Students. New lives for old clothes! Here at Crossnore, out of old clothing, the “white elephant” of many a family, we build new lives, new hopes, new possibilities for the future of the mountains. CrossnoreSchool came into being, and derives much of its support, lit erally from the Ragman’s Pack. Old clothing, household articles, every thing used by human beings, all are sent to and sold in our sales room to the people of these highlands, at prices within the range of even their lean pocketbooks. Crossnore School is a school with a difference. It is a Christian, non denominational institution founded by and for the mountain people. The cen tral units are the State supported and controlled public school, and the boarding facilities for those of the children who are unable to attend as day students. Connected with this latter are the school farm, the weav ing rooms, the community work, and all the means that are found to help the students earn part or all of their expenses. The State cares for the scholastic education,butthe school must ask its friends to lend their support for the rest. We need money, much of it, for the daily use of coal and food, for helpers other than the few the State Vocational Bureau can send, for the support of dormitories, the hospital and the community work. We need money for scholarships in order that needy students can stay in school, and to support little children not yet old enough to earn any of their way. Many of our friends do their bit by sending us a dollar a year. But even where a money gift is im possible, there are old clothing and home furnishings which in the Mira cle Melting Pot of our Sales Room can become the money we need so much. Send us the outgrown, the out-of-style or season clothing; send us anything but old text books. There is a market for it here. We can sell at least half as much again as we ever receive, little money as there is here in the mountains. Search your attics, closets, drawers. Ask your friends, and their friends. Have your club, your, church, your Sunday School get up bundles and boxes and send them to Crossnore School. What better return could there be on any investment than new life, higher edu cation and swifter progress for man kind ? Since the lean hard years set in, it has been hard for anyone to earn a living and support his own loved ones, let alone contribute to the life and happiness of others. But here at Cross nore is a work that can be helped by you with little cost to yourself. We know that you are regularly asked to contribute something to help others. We know too how little there is to spare in any home today. But be cause our need is so great we dare to ask. New lives for old clothes! Help us to keep lighted the Aladdin’s Lamp of hope and ambition here in the Highlands. Help us to help these gen uine Americans to help themselves, not by giving them things, but by showing them the way to get them for themselves.

RARE SEA BIRD CAPTURED IN THIS COUNTY (By Claude J. Smith.) About October 19, 1933, Carl Irwin proprietor of Twin Oaks Motor Com pany, captured a bird in a pond just across the highway from his home. The bird seemed to be crippled in some way, so Mr. Irwin took it his house, and kept it a few days. He said that when placed in the kitchen sink it would swim well. After keep ing it a few days he killed it, and, not wishing to throw it away had it mounted by Roy Crouse, of Sparta. It was then placed in Twin Oaks cafe for observation, and, if possible, for identification. Numerous persons, including traveling salesman, saw the bird, but were at a loss as to its identity. On October 17, I learned of the “bird without a name,’’ and, as I was returning from Sparta, stop ped to see it, and see if I could name it. I could not name ti on sight, so I made careful and complete notes as to color, size, shape, and other char acteristics. When I returned home I identified it with the able help of Reed’s “Guide of Water Birds East of the Rockies,” as a Sooty Shear water, a bird found on the North At lantic coast in summer, whose nest ing and winter range is not given, and possibly not definitely known. The brid is about 16 inches long, soo ty grayish, black all over with the underwing coverts whitish. The bill and feet are black; the feet being webbed, like those of a duck. The form of the bird is rather slender, and it has long, slender wings. The bill, which is black, is largest at the tip than at the base. These birds are rarely ever seen unless on the watei, when they take their food, which is composed of oily refuse. This bird has never before been recorded in the State, as I learn, and. possibly not many times in the United States. The identification of the bird brings Al leghany’s total to 199 species, all seen by the writer. OLD SOL COOKS SOUP Samarkand, U.S. S.

Reduction in Dairy Cattle Proposed Fort Worth, Tex., Oct. 7—A dairy cattle reduction campaign, similar to that carried on by the federal govern ment for hogs, cotton and wheat, has been suggested to Secretary of Agri culture Wallace by Dr. Lewis C. Crabb, chief veterinarian of the Tex as Livestock Sanitary Commission. Crab proposes slaughter, or dis posal in some manner, of all diseased dairy cattle and all which do not give sufficient milk to return a profit in normal times. ; He suggested in his plan, which he forwarded to Secretary Wallace, that athorough test be carried on through out the United States of the health of cattle. This test, he suggested, could be made by the country’s nu merous agricultural agencies at a small cost. I Such a test, he said, would show that there are approximately 5,000, 000 dairy cows in the United States which should be elminiated because of disease, or due to their unprofita bleness as milk producers. , He also advocated a processing tax on dairy products, similar to that placed on wheat and cotton, to pay farmers for disposing of the diseased | or poor quality cattle. The campaign against diseased cat tle, aside from its economic benefits, would greatly aid in reducing tuber culosis, Crabb said, while the elmini nation of unprofitable cattle from a herd would aid every farmer. BLUE EAGLE IS UNCLE SAM’S BIRO. When the call was made for vol unteers to sign up under the Blue Eagle banner there were many who enrolled evidently without giving due thought to the significance of their act. Whether they willingly or anxi ously signed or not, they did so very ; readily, and immediately they were given free of charge bright emblems to be used in their places of business. Those emblems are valuable. They are the best advertisements business can have. In fact, many merchants have seemingly placed higher estimate upon them than upon newspaper ad vertising, which is perfectly allright, ! the Blue Eagles being in the same | army with newspapers—fighting for \ the rights of others But it was no more than might1 have ben expected that there would 1 be some who would sign the agree- ' ments, secure the emblems and use them to their advantage without compliance with the terms. It is to this class that President RooseveU n^w addresses the warning that he] will call for a fine of $500 and six months imprisonment for violation of Ine Blue Eagle agreement. It is a pity that this warning from the President should be necessary. Why is it that some people v/ill be so selfish that they will try to take advantage of a noble movement on the part of the great majority of the people of the United States—to make such use of the Blue Eagle as to fur- ( tlier their own interests without giv ing in return their wholehearted sup port? The answer is that some people will put self fist and above all other things, even disregard a sacred ob ligation. Warning was given in the begin-1 ning by General Hugh S. Johnson, NR A chief, not to “triflle with that bird.” Wise people heeded the warn ing. Others wise enough to under- j stand why they should comply with the terms were so selfish that they allowed their breed to get the better of their judgment. Now it is time for checking up, and all who have prac ticed selfishness nad better get right with the Eagle. It is hoped that no one will oe found violating the agreement. What we would like to see is a check-up with a total of one hundred per cent compliance with Blue Eagle rules.— Harnett County News. COAST WINES IN NEW ORLEANS New Orleans, Oct. 21—The first • shipment 99 cases, of California wines ranging from 14 to 22 per cent alco- 1 hoi, has arrived here.

In their suit the ] Pallas Apparate Company asks for ‘ an accounting of profits and a res- < training order against further alleg-1« ed infringements. t Public Opinion ALCOHOL?—YES OH NO Icohol is a poison. It is poisonous under any law legal or illegal. Op ponents of the 18th Amendment may change the law, governing the rela tion of alcohol to the government, but they cannot change the nature of! alcohol. Tt will still remain protoplas mic poison. It can not ever be classed as a food. Its effect upon cells and tissues will still be narcotic, anaes thetic, and depressing. It will render its user more susceptible to disease. It wil interfere with their recovery when ill and one’s expectation of long life at all times. Excessive use of al cohol will produce abnormal nervous control of the mind and body. It destroys the judgment or reason and places man on the level with animal kingdom. Alcohol is still capable of producing heart trouble. It can distort the judgment and inflame the passion as no other drug does. No user of alcohol can hope to be a good parent, athlete, car driver, lo comotive engineer or aeroplane pi lot. Repeal can never make a boy or girl a better scholar or finer Chris tian—so why vote for repeal? —A CITIZEN. Ford V-8’s Win European Race On Mountain Roads “Six Ford V-8 cars piloted by Dutch drivers triumphed conclusively over five European and two other American entrants in the fifth annual running of the grueling 5-day Inter national Alpine Trial over 1,165 miles of Swiss, Italian and French moun tain roads, according to official re ports of the race just received here. Three of the winning Fords driven by a Dutch team captained by Dr. J. J. Sprengen van Eyck captured the coveted Coupe des Alpes, while the three other Fords won the first three places in the individual competition for the Coupe des Glaciers. The first two tied for first place with the best score of any of the dozens of contest ants in the five classes competing. The annual Alpine contest is proba bly the most severe test of motor car endurance and performance conducted in Europe. It is open only to stock cars as sold to the public. Its route from Merano, via St. Moritz, Turin, and Grenoble to Nice, includes the ascent and descent of 12 major passes with steep winding roads, scores of dangerous “hair-pan” turns and a never-ending variety of road surfaces which test alike the stamina of the cars and the skil of the drivers. Most difticult of all the passes Is the Stelvio, in the Ortler Alps be tween Italy and Switzerland. It rises i to 9,150 feet above sea level. The highway leading to it is the highest automobile road in the world. In the course of the 11-mile climb from the) valley, the drivers were forced to ne- J gotiate 52 “hair-pin” bends before reaching the snow-capped top of the mountain. The Ford cars and other competi tors in the principal class were re quiredto make the ascent of this dif ficult pass at an average of 28 miles an hour. Many were forced to stop along the way to replenish the water in their violently steaming radiators but the Ford cars came up the pass in formation without a halt and con tinued their journey without adding j water. At the final inspection of the com - 1 peting cars at the finish in Nice where < penalties were imposed for faults in j condition, the Ford cars were passed without penalty and the drivers com- { plimented by the judges upon th; J condition of the cars, both mechani j cally and in appearance.
