Former Kings Mountain Teacher Joining Oswego College Faculty A former Kings Mountain school teacher, Miss Elizabeth Hunt, described as the Charlotte school system’s most unique teacher, is leaving Charlotte to join the faculty of Oswego State Teachers College, at Oswego, N. Miss Hunt is one of five North Carolinians certified to teach manual arts —a field almost ex elusive to men. ’ Miss Hunt’s appointment to the Oswego faculty and her leaving the Charlotte system, was report ed in the Charlotte Observer by Hoke May on Wednesday. His news story follows: “Charlotte’s city school system completed a 74,year-old exchange Tuesday and lost its most unus ual tleacher. “The teacher, vivacious, dark haired Elizabeth Hunt of Gas tonia, is leaving to accept a post at Oswego State Teachers Col lege in upper New York State. “What makes her unusual is her choice of fields. “She is an industrial arts con sultant — one of the few women bmployed in this field in the na tion. “She is considered one of the nation’s best instructors in ele mentary ipanual arts, a phase of teaching dominated by men. “Her temployment at Oswego, one 6f the most demanding teach ers colleges, in the nation is wit ness of her ability. So said Dr. Elmer Garinger, Charlotte city school superinten dent who added: "While we are very sorry to lose Miss Hunt, we consider it an honor that she goes from our system to Oswego.” “At the New York school, Miss Hunt — Lib to her friends — will train prospective teachers in ele. mentary industrial arts instruc tion. “She picked up an interest in tools and woodworking while a student at Berea College in Ken tucky. “At Berea, work is emphasized. As a matter of course, its stu dents work at least two hours a day. Miss Hunt labored at wood working and in the electric ma chine shop. “I liked it so wtell,” she said, “that, after I was graduated and had taught for several years, I decided to get an industrial arts certificate.” “Before attending East Caro NOTICE OF RESALE Under and by virtue of the po wer of sale contained in an order made by the Clerk Superior Court for Cleveland County, North Carolina in the proceeding entit led, “Samuel H, Blakely, et al'vs. Union Trust Company, Inc., Ad ministrator for the William E.

There are only ' fifve other women similarly Cer tified in the state. “Miss Hunt joined thle Charlotte system in September, 1951, and established the first elementary school manual training program here. “She is very popular among thte children,” Dr. Garingpr said. “When I visit the schools, the first question children usually ask me is, 'When will Miss Hunt be back.’ ” "To this, Miss Hunt modestly added: "You don’t have to sell little children on hammering and saw ing, and it’s bound to make you popular with them.” “The program she supervised has a firm foundation in modern education which recognizes the need for grounding pupils in the basic use of tools. “Miss Hunt resigned from the Charlotte system Tuesday.

Negro County Agent B. T. McNeill says that Sylvia, Ber nice, and Clarence Hodges, work j ing with their father Jim Hodges, have been able to make a good start toward establishing a per mmantent curb market on their farm near Hope Mills. About three years ago the 4-H’ers selected vegetable gard. enihg as their project. McNeill says they soon realized that their location next to the highway pro vided them with a good opportu nity for marketing their frfesh ve getables if they could construct a building. They talked this idea over with their truck farmer father, and plans were made to use the mon ey they made from vegetable sales to build some type of build ing. Last year the threfe children contributed $347, and their father supplied the balance on a part nership basis. The club members says McNeill, did much of the construction work. To supply thfeir new market with fresh vegetables through out the year, they plan to plant not less than 22 different varie ties at different intervals during thfe year. In addition to the small plots ox different vegetables [ WEEKLY CROSSWORD PUZZLE Breed of Dog HORIZONTAL 1 Depicted type of dog 7 It is a breed of 13 Expunger 14 It is a native of 15 Dine 16 Ceremonies 18 Lieutenants tab.) 19 Slide 21 Stitch 22 Endure 23 Hawaiian bird 24 Half-em 25 Rave 27 Mine entrance 30 Art (Latin) .31 Preposition 32 Of the thing 1 33 Sheltered side 34 Domestic slave 37 Roman god of war 38 Diminutive of Edgar 39 Within 40 Get up 42 Suitable 45 Cease 48 Worthless morsel 49 Warning device 51 Self esteem 52Greater in stature 54 Approached 56 Scoffs 57 Backbones VERTICAL 1 Money-makers 2 Verbal 3 Allotted „ portions 4 Zoological society (ab.) 5 Over (contr.) 6 Flower 7 Retinue of workmen 8 Arab tribesman 9 Nova Scotia (ab.) 10 Body of land 11 Insect eggs 12 Direction 17 Symbol for tellurium 20 Cooking utensil 22 Meadow* 25 Uncommon 26 Greek god of war 28 Passage of the brain 29 Pedal digits 33 Light 35 Cuddle 36 Dutch city 37 Wrong (prefix) 40 Decays 41 Persia 42 Ventilates 43 Pair (ab.) 44 Numbers 46 Type ol molding 47 Se^ji containers 49 Weight ol India 50 Fiber knots 53 French article 55 Sloth ajppp,. ;, GARDEN TIMS mtm ROBERT SCHM IDT 'U.C. STATE COLLEGE I have just received a copy of the N. C. State Fair catalog which reminds me that many community and county fairs will be held during the next six weeks. Every gardener should take an . interest in the local, fair and also the State fair. If you have any thing worth exhibiting, you should take pride in showing it. How many times have you stood in front of a prize winning flow er, vegetable or fruit at a fair and said, either to those with you or to yourself, “I’ve got a better one than that in the gar den right now,.” You may be absolutely right. Only, having it winning a blue ribbon on the show table and haVing it growing in the garden are two entirely different things. The point is to get it from the garden to the show table and still have it good enough to win planted this year, they planted two acres of watermelons, and one-half acre each of lima beans, tomatoes and cabbage. Jim Hodges says, “At .first I thought it was just a bright idea, but it really working with the family pulling together.” Demand for many farm pro ducts in this country by 1957 may be 40 to 45 per cent more than in 1953, estimates Rex F Daly, a U.-S. Department of Agriculture researcher. Use of livestock pro ducts is expected to increase more than use of crops. The estimate is based on assumptions of a grow ing population, labor force, and employment. It also assumes that the world trend is toward peace. over the other entries. Before you enter an exhibit, read over carefully the instruct ions in the catalog. Be sure to enter the exhibit in the proper class. Have it properly labeled. If the class calls for a plate of 12 specimens be sure that you have twelve--no more and no less. In vegetable exhibits, speci mens should be of best market able size except where the cata log calls for the “largest," as in the case of pumpkin. Where the class calls for a plate, tray, peck or bushel, the individual speci mens should be as nearly alike in size, shape and color as possi ble, and they should be free from blemishes and have the true characteristics of that particu lar variety. Potatoes need not. be washed unless it will improve their appearance. However, if not washed they should be brushed with a, soft brush or cloth. Flower exhibits call for per fection. Good stems, healthy fo liage, and a perfect bloom are essential. It is important to have flowers in good condition at the time of judging,. A rose bloom should be from one-half to three fourths open—a tight bud will not be considered by judges. Fruits, such as apples and pears, should have true varietal characteristics, should be well colored and not over-ripe. They should be free from disease and insect damage. Stems must no\ be removed from apples and pears. All specimens in a plate or tray should be uniform in size, shape, and color. Three Local Barbers Attended AMB Meet The twenty-eighth Convention of the Association of Master Barbars of N. C. was held in High Point September 2-3-4 at the Sheraton Hotel. Three of the'barbers attending from the K.. M. Chapter were President J. Lee Roberts, Sidney R. Dixon, Secretary and Treasu rer, and Curtis V. Gaffney, Cor responding Secretary.

The 1957 Convention will be held in Charlotte, N. C. on Labor Day weekend. Negro Arrested After Accident John R.
