because they bear a crop of ber
ries during the late summer at
the height of the tourist season.
In order to get a good summer
crop of berries from everbearing
varieties it is necessary to pinch
off the early spring blooms, oth
erwise the spring crop will be
good and there will be some late
fall berries but no continuous
crop during the summer. Suggest
ed everbearing varieties are Sup
erfection, Mastodon and Red
Rich. Everbearers are not gene
rally recommended for Eastern
North Carolina. They are not as
satisfactory as standard berries.
In the eastern part of the state
it is time to put a mulch on the
established strawberry bed. This
mulch is usually of pine straw but
it may be of any short straw or
similar loose materials. All the
space between the plants and be
tween the rows should be covered
with the mulch. The chief, purpose
of the mulch is not to protect the
blooms and berries from cold but
to keep them from getting sandy
and keep them up off the wet soil
so they are not so apt to rot. A
good mulch will also keep down
some of the* early spring weed
growth.

Like Flowers,
Children Emerge
In Springtime
RALEIGH — "Children, like
flowers, come out in the Spring.”
With those words, Assistant
Motor Vehicles Commissioner Joe
W. Garrett spoke this week on
the year round importance of
child safety.
“But children are not like flow
ers in one respect," he said.
"Children don’t stay put. In fact,
the only way drivers can really
play it safe is always to expect
the unexpected from youngsters.”
Garrett, father of a blossoming
little girl himself, reminded Tar
Heel motorists that with the com
ing of Springtime children will
engage in more outdoor activities.
“Young folks are always unpre.
dictable,” he said, “but at this
time of year, when vacation from
school is just around the corner,
they represent even a greater
hazard."
He especially warned motorists
to be on the alert for children,
either on foot or on a bicycle, tri
cycle or other vehicle, suddenly
darting into the roadway from
driveways, from behind parked
cars or at intersections.
Garrett listed four suggestions
for motorists to put into practice
in the months immediately
ahead:
1. Be on the alert in zones
where children might naturally
be expected. Residential areas,
school zones, playground areas,
athletic fields, vacant lots—
these are potential danger spots.
2. Watch carefully for child
ren on tricycles, roller skates, wa
gons, scooters, bicycles. Unpredic
table on foot, children are. even
more unpredictable on wheels.
3. Give the child a “brake”—
and resist the temptation to honk
your horn. A sudden blast from
an automobile horn can throw a
child already in danger into a
panic.
4. Remember every minute
you are driving, especially where,
children may be found—always
expect the unexpected from child
ren.
Bankers Schedule
Convention Cruise
RALEIGH — For the first time
in nearly 20 years, the North
Carolina Bankers Association
will hold its annual convention
outside of North Carolina. In
fact, the 1956 bankers’ convention
won’t even be held in the United
States.
John G. Mitchell of Warren ton,
president of the bankers asso
ciation has announced that the
30th annual convention of the or
ganization will be held May 19
26 aboard a cruise ship en route
to Havana and Nassau. Some 650
North Carolina bankers and their
quests will make the trip.
The Association has chartered
the 28,000-ton “Queen of Bermu
Ja,” flagship of the Fumess-Ber
nuda Line, for the voyage. The
>hip will leave Norflok on May
19 and return on May 26.
Mitchell expressed disappoint
ment that the Association was un
ible to persuade the steamship
company to send the ship into one
of North Carolina’s ports. Mitch
ell and other officials of the. asso
ciation made trips to New York
and elsewhere in an attehpt to ori.
ginate the cruise from either
Morehead City or Wilmington.
The steampship company ex
plained that the “Queen of Ber
muda” normally operates out of
New York. When it uses a port
south of New York, which it sel
dom does, it must “run empty"
from New York to that port at a
cost of about $20,000 a day. It
already loses a day’s operation
in coming to Norfolk, and to
come farther south, to Morehead
City or Wilmington, would in
volve and additional day’s loss of
revenue.
No other ship of adequate size
could be found which would come
into a North Carolina port, Mitch
ell reported. The Splendid Swe

It Pays To Know
How To Buy. Hose
There’s more to buying a pair
of stockings than knowing your
foot size. You also have to know
the stocking length, foot style,
guage, denier, and color you want.
Denier is the size of thickness
of the thread from which the
stockings are made. Denier 15,
for example, means a very fine
cobwebby yarn used in sheer
hose; 20 is a little heavier, and
30 still .heavier.. _ , ;
Guage is the number of threads
in every one and a half inches of
the stockings or the fine.ss or
closeness of knit. At present, 51
guage is considered low or coarse,
54 is medium, 60 is fine or close,
and 66 is very fine.
According' to% Julia Mclver,
State College extension clothing
specialist, there’s a relation be
tween denier and guage..The finer
the yarn or lower the denier num
ber, the more closely the stock
ings must be knit A very fine
yarn calls for a fine or close knit
' to endure the tension of wear For
any given denier, the higher the
guage figure the. beter wear you’ll
likely get. For example, 15 de
nier hose can be expected to last
longer in the close 66 guage. rath

size of the bankers’ group.
er in 51 guage. The heavier 30
denier, however, can give, good
wear in 51 guage or lower.
Miss Melver points out that
while it’s important to know
what’s meant by denier and
guage, there are other factors
that determine* the satisfaction
you’ll get from a pair of hoje.
Crepe hose, for example, usually
wear better than smooth, o di
nary hose because the yarn has a
twi^t that make it stronger and
more resistant to snagging. For
best fit try proportioned nylons.
They made in all sizes: for shprt
or slim legs, for average or me
dium legs, for long or full legs.

IT’S A FINE THING to have the “welcome mat” out for a new
factory on opening day. But it's not enough! A community’s
long-range industrial growth and prosperity depend on sincere
and continuing hospitality to industry, long after the welcoming
committee has gone home. This is a job for all of us in the
South today.
The steady, year-by-year expansion of existing industry is
impressive proof that the job is being done. Southern industries
are getting an honest day’s work for a fair day’s pay...
understanding acceptance of technological progress, which
ultimately creates still more jobs... honest, stable, friendly
state and local government and fair tax treatment... efficient,
dependable rail service.
With all of us doing all we can to welcome new industries
to the South and to keep them happy in their new home, the
Southland will continue to grow and prosper. And all in the
South will benefit!
