his mother and sister Eastend. t
George Belk and wife from
High Shoals and Hail Belk from

How long will hte war last is
a question being asked on the
streets. So long as they can find
Devils to run it ? is my answer. !
What you say Joe? I hope it

In the horse and buggy days

cigarettes, snuff or tobacco in

Had a very nice letter today
from my good fried Sgt. Wray
Stewart somewhere in- the Far
East. He says he's glad he has
always been able to get the Her
ald anywhere he's been yet. He
says if Uncle Sam keeps send ?
Ing him to new places hi* will
likely make an air field on the
moon. He is now on a little island
north of Japan. The way it is
torn up war has been here before.
The people are black what few
we have found, Wray says, and
It is very hot like Alaska ? snow
ing all the time. " ...
I never have any respect lor
any of. thosehigh ? browed low
scheming citizens who sneak a
round and pUe up all.klnws of
goods while tlw war is on. Hoard
ing war material, cement, nails,
lime. These dirty rascals are at
it again, offering cement at $2.00
per sack and .son on. We got plen
ty of Joes all about us ? worse
than Stalin. Not all hoarding su
gar. They may get by for a while
but when the Government gets
them ? 20 years In the pen may
?eem a long time just for oval

We commence
to wonder once
In a while if tt
does any good
to help thos? I
warring nations
who scorn the
hand that does

after they get
all they can
from your Uncle
Sam? They don't give a hell

tell me what to say f you can. I I
care not if you 2 re a Republican ;
or a Demdamnorat, if you are
stealing from the nation those
things that is needed for the
war, you should be in RUssia
whore you can't steal. Weberter
said to filch is to steal. Better
quit filching from Uncle Sam
and fly Straight, Evil results from '
too close association with the
Devil. I heard a preacher say
one time ? evil corrupts good
morals. I say so too. Let me say
furthermore, if you take off in
your car and drive like the Devil
you may soon be with him.
Don't get mad at me for being
plain and telling the truth. I
was not talking about you We J
wouldn't do nothing like that but
some do. It's been proved many
times.
The American way of life is
the only sound and sensible way
?Let's fightfof It.
?The tragedy of tragedies is
that America has become a soft
spintess, selfish money mad,
pleasure ? loving people. The
average person Is no longer in
terested in maintaining the prin
ciples that have made America
the greatest nation on the face of
the earth or any where else.
I don't object to the President
staying in bed as late as he Rlea- 1
ses. Lots of 'em officice holders
could do it and savethe country
money. You see too many Byrds
in Washington. We sleep late
when we feel iike it. I heard they
were going to tax a man if they
found him sleeping over a hours
and a woman over six. Six hours
is plenty of sleep for any woman.
About all the freedom a man gets
worth mentioning is when he's
sleeping orf ishing.
One thing we should like a
bout trouble is it teaches you how
many friends you got.
Joe Stalin boasts there are 7,
700 newspapers in Russia. We
wouldn't give the Herald for all '
of them. ?
Lying and deception are a ba
sic part of the Communistic
creed. They will wish they had
never met a Yank before their
_f[ght is over. Look out Joe:
May Cod nave sftthe inercy otf
those of us in this nation who
are too selfish, too cowardly, too
indifferent and too blind to take
an intelligent interest in the
issues of these fearful days we
face ? the flood gates of Commu
nism ? Socialism with Russia.
Our Republic was built upon
the rock-ribbed foundation of
truth. Justice and Liberty. Our
forefathers were men of faith,

By 4-H, Home Demonstration Clubs
A United Nations Flag in ev
ery community is the goal of a
new state-wide project to be star
ted soon by North Carolina's,
thousands of home demonstra
tion club members and 4-H club
girls.
This announcement is made by .
Miss Ruth Current, State home'
demonstration agent for- the
State College Extension Service,!
following he return from a con- I
ference in Washington. Extension
agents from throughout the coun j
try have been asked to lead in'
developing the program.
Club women and girls will do
the work free for interested
groups and organizations that a- {
gree to provide the material.
? The flaps- are true-Wite fii
or, With white figures. They are 1
to be three by five feet In size.
The material for one flag costs
approximately $3.
Poles for flying the flags will
be provided by 4-H Club 'boys un
sterling character who counted it
a privilege to suffer want, to en- '
dure to the end in order that 1
they could leave for us our price
less government in a Constitu- J
Republic. That w? could live the
Great American Way of Life and ,
not be molested by other powers
and Isms. If America succumbs
to tototaliarism. Communism, So
cialism or some other alien
ideology. It won't be enemy
bombefs or subversive propagan
das ? then who will be respon
sible?
The responsibility will rest on
you and me and our next door
neighbors who have been too
busy or too indifferent to take
an active interest in public af
fairs. Those whose opinions are j
based upon ignorance. Wash
ington, D. C.. ha.-? been the Na
tions Capitol for 138 years. Ie
has only been invaded once ? by
the Brltsh troops during the War
of 1812. We trust never again by
a foreign enemy. Old Hitler af
firmed he would eat dinner in |
the Presidential Kitchen. Christ
mas day 1945. Joe could be pack
ing up to spend Christmas in the j
Capitol. Is Joe married? I heard
he got married to Hitler's sister.
They say Mrs. Stalin does Joe's
fighting. I guess Uncle Harry
sees whata mess Dear Uncle Joe
got us into again. It won't do to.
mess up and get too thinck with
your neighbors if they do live a
cross the stream: We tickled Old
Joe's taste when we sent him a
head into Berlin and he. with out
gun.i. bombs and stuff made Mr.
Adolph simmy. Now we must
fight Russia while they fight us
hack with the war materials we
loaned them to whip Germany.
Did our folks act the fool? I
guess they known by now Harry, j
bBrother. Sister, when patriotism '
can be bought for a price the j
hope of human freedom has gone j
with the wind ? fled.
We claim to be riding on the '
Salvation Train, but many of us
are riding in the sleeper.
A quick way to lose friends la
to announce you are out of mo j
ney.
So many people today are like i
hogs under a tree eating acorns,
neverd looking up to see where
our blessings come from.
By all account^ the Truman'
Administration is getting ready
to fight it out if it takes all sum

Along with the flag -making,
home demonstrations and 4-H
groups will conduct an educa
tional campaign concerning the I
purposes, organizations, and
functioning of the United Na
tions. This will be a phase of the
home demonstration citizeznship
program.
An effort will be made to have
a flag available in every commu
nity for flying on United Nations
Day, October 24. In many cases
flags will be made and presented
to city and county officials for
lbcal use. \
The Extension Service was ask
ed to lead the program with all
because it has agenu iaj
every county experienced in
spreading and demonstrating
?better farming, homemaking, -j
clothing, and other information.

ers employed jointly by the coun

Service and the U. S. Department
Take Samples Now
For Small Grains
Farmers planting small grain
this /all are urged to take a soil
sample immediately from each
field where small grain is to be
seeded, according to Dr. F. J. Bell,
seed and small grain specialist
for the State College Extension
Service. The soil itself should
help planters decide the grade of
fertilizer and rate of application
to be used, he added.
Dr. Bell suggests that samples ?
of soil be sent to the Soil Testing 1
Division, North Carolina Depart- 1
ment of Agriculture, Raleigh, j
which will analyze the soil and
make recommendations for lim- j
ing and fertilizing. At present,
recommendations are being mail
ed out one week after the sam
ples are received in the la bora]
tory.
To receive maximum returns
from money spent on fertilizer
for small grain, it is essential
that the fertilizer .fit the soil,
says Dr. Bell, for example, soil
low in potash needs a fertlizer j
fairly high in this element, such
as 5-10-10 or 2-12-12. A soil test
will help to show what is n^eded.
Proper liming of the soil is im
portant at small grain seeding
time, particularly because of the
legumes such as lespedeza or
other crops to be seeded in the
small grain next spring, the State
Collerje specialist points out. Les
pedeza responds to lime and
cannot produce its best growth
on acid soils. A soil test will show
how much lime is needed.
No charge is made for testing
soil samples for North Carolina
of Agriculture.
Commenting on the flag-mak-'
ing effort, Federal Extension Di
rector J(f. L. Wilson said: "The
war in Korea is a United Nations
war. The United Nations flag
is flying beside our flag and the
flags of other countries. It stands
for a great hope ay our flag did
in Betsy Ross' time. People who
help make and fly United Na^
lions flags will -he doing pa ?
triotic service as well as widen
ing their understanding of the
present march of events."
