Education Studies
Warn Of School
Enrollment Flood
Thinning’ Teacher
Ranks Seen As
Pressing1 Problem
Despite an unprecedented up
surge in public school enrollments,
Virginia counties including those
in this area, are losing teachers
faster than qualified replacements
can be found
That informal!- n is gleaned
'rom studies recently published by
•he Researc.i Service of the Vir
ginia Education Association
Enrollment increases, stem
ming from the stepped up birth
■ate of the war years and since
vill reach a peak in ten years
hen it is estimat'd bv Robert
F Williams, executive director of
Uie VEA that 225.000 additional
children will be enrolled in Vir
■ insa's oublie schools.
Eeavht" Profession
Mr. Williams cites the both
rate of two years covering a ten
vear span to illustrate his point.
TTe list; 80.771 In o births in Vir
ginia during 1951. the largest
number in her history, as com
pared with 50,658 in 1940.
lie estimates that teachers arc
leaving Virginia schools at a rate
of 1.500 annually, while colleges
are providing about 1 ooo yearly at
present. This number is only suf
ficient. Mr Williams belieies. to
care for the increased numbers of
teachers needed by increased en
rollments. with the consequent
thinning of teacher ranks ronsti
tuting one of Virginia's most
pressing problems
laical Effect
County-by-county figures com
titled bv the YEA show that fo*
the 1952-53 session Amelin. Buck
ingham. Charlotte. Cumberland.
P.'whatan and Prince Edward
counties had 71 teachers who did
not return to their positions Of
that number. 43 left the teaching
profession permanently, while the
remainder moved about, pre
sumably to higher paying school
systems, or for more convenient
• locations.
For the 1953-54 term, it is esti
mated the same counties will re
quire 72 new teachers, some re
quiring as high as one - fourth
more as presently teaching
The research figures klso show
these statistics:
Ten per cent of Virginia's
teachers in 1952-53 had sub
standard certificates
School Costs
The average instructional ex
penditure for schools per child in
Virginia in 1951-52 was 3155.61.
up from $144 40 for the 1950-51
term. These costs do not include
debt .serv ice or capital outlays.
Virginia counties varied in the
tier-child, per year cost from
Buchanan county, at $85.00 to
Arlington county, the highest, of
$276.34 The national average for
1951-52 was $217.45 per child
The average classroom salary
m Virginia in 1951-52 was $2,527.
also utv $136 over 1950-51. The
elementary school salary average
was $2,389; for high school teach

' op-dress Grain
EARLY
For Big Yields!
Small Grain crops need nitrogen early, to make vigorous
growth and produce abundant yields. In the late winter or early
spring — just before growth starts — top-dress each acre with
100 to 300 pounds of ARCADIAN*, the American Nitrate of
Soda. ARCADIAN Nitrate of Soda is the genuine, old reliable
1HE AtflERION
Soda many thousands of
farm ers have used for many
years. It contains 16% or
more nitrogen, all-soluble,'
quick-acting and immedi
ately available. Early top
dressing with ARCADIAN
Nitrate of Soda makes grain
get up and grow! It doubles
and trebles the number of
stalks per plant with each
extra stalk an added pro
ducer of big yields of high
quality grain
Buy ARCADIAN Nitrate
of Soda where you buy
complete fertilizer. Place
your order and request im

Mrs. Oglesby, 92, Recalls Old Days
In Virginia In Birmingham News Story
The daily Birmingham, Alt.
News recently published for its
leaders a feature story about Mrs.
Nellie Oglesby, 92. a former Buck
ingham county resident now liv
ing at Bessemer, Ala.
The writer of the feature story
twines his yarn about Mrs. Ogles
by's fondness for recalling so
happily the days in Old Virginia.
Ife writes of her memories:
"For instance there is the old- ■
eight room farm home in Buck
ingham county, where she was;
bom tnd lived happily with a
large family. She proudly exhibits
the picture of the home with its
typical Southern surrounding
veranda. She tells hcwr it housed
the father, a Confederate veteran,
the mother who made the rule*
for a Godly Baptist home, six
brothers and five sisters.
Parents Natives
Her father was Simeon Allen,
of Cumberltnd county, and hoi
mother. Martha Dunnavant Al
len. of Buckingham county. They
lived at Enonville from before the
Civil War until their deaths in
1910 and 1913. They had cele
brated their 68th wedding anni
versary before the first one passed
on.
Mrs. Nellie Oglesby, subject of
the Birmingham paper's feature
story, was third from the young
est child In her Buckingham
days, she was widely known a ; a
writing teacher and she still writes
a beautiful hand.
Many years a widow now, M;..
Ogelsby lives alone in Bessemer,
but has a host of friends who en
joy looking after her. She is a
go-'d conversationist and she lis
tens to the radio. "Nobody was
ever so blessed as I am with
friends." she says.
Friends Help Now
Hei friends perform such serv
ices for her as putting in the coal
and kindling, marketing, looking
after the laundry and such thine
She stays pretty well to her bed
room. but keeps a paddle at the
side of the house so friends can
knock for admission When she
want-, some one in the neighbor
hood for t favor, she rings a large
dinner bell on the front porch.
Still the cultured Virginia lady
despite her 92 yeats. Mrs Oglesby
lives above the adversities of de
clining years that distress many
fi Iks. She remembers so happily
the former years.
Other memories are of her girl
hood. with many girl friends and
beaux. Also, the visit to Alabama
for a visit with her brother, Eg
bert. who was a railroad man. She
met tiie man who was to become
her husband on this visit.
Married In 1897
A memory that brings a twinkle
is that of her wedding in Enon
Baptist Church, Enonville, in
1897. Friends from three counties
• ■ame to the wedding, she recalls.
There had never been a prettier
wedding in that part of Virginia,
with six couples oi bridesmaids
and groomsmen
The busiest years were during
her married life as wife to her
husband-farmer at Green Pond,
near Bessemer. Mr. Ogiesbv was
a leading Presbyterian elder and
he worked by his side in the
church.
Her saddest backward glance is
of the death of her husband 30
rears ago. At his death she gave
their home and 40 aeres of land
to the church at Green Pond a:
a memorial to Mr. Oglesby. After
the death of her husband she
moved to Bessemer, where she has
been since.
Gone now are father, mother,
brothers. . at t . husband. •'That
is what life hr.tigs u# to at 92."
■tie comments now But even
though they're si! gone, ttie as
s'nations were fine and sweet and
memorv of the good life has a way
of keeping faith and spirit bright
— even at 92

Period Furniture Discussed
For College Hill Members
Mrs. H. A Moore. Mrs. I). M.
Allan and Mrs. H. C Beale enter
tained the College Hill Club in
the home of Mrs. Moo. e. Wednes
day evening. Feb 11. Mrs. David
C Wilson, club piesidcnt. pre
sided .She spoke of the loss the
dub had sustained in the pass
ing of two of its members. Miss
Emma C Venable and Miss Min
nie Lacy, and Mrs. Charles H.
Davis and Miss Anna Dickhoff
read poems in commemoration of
these members.
Mrs. E. Ii Elliott, program
leader, had as her subject. "Period
Furniture."
Shi’ said. "The term, 'period
furniture.' is suggestive of the
attempt, developed since 1850. to
classify various types of antique
furniture in groups according to
the period ol their origin and
popularity. These groups are
named either after the monarchs.
English or French, under whom
given styles oi furniture flourish
ed. or after the designers of
given styles.
Colonial Furniture
"American colonial furniture is
classified in two «ays. Since the
joloniul period exit tided over
nearly a century ann a half, pro
ductions of that Mini are some
times designated by the name of
the English soveuign during
whose reign the English cabinet
makers produced Inc examples
which American workmen follow
ed.
“The more convenient classifi
cation recognizes tlnec more or
less distinct colonial periods—the
early primitive penou. represent
cd *"a 1 v ijv ri'p'. ' .- or ‘ liuirii
which were made by local car
penters to supply individual
needs. Such pieces arc distinctly
utilitarian and owe whatever
beauty they may posses to the
sincerity and innate artistry of
the workman, rather than to
studied effort. A later period,
showing conscious copying of the
styles of the gieat . English
cabinet makers, Chippendale.
Heppclwhitc. and olheis. by pro
fessional American cabinet mak
ers. In this period much of struc
tural strength was sacrified for
grace, elegance, and lightness of
contour and ornament. The third
period is the American Empire
period, noted lor the coldness
and formality of design, and often
poor taste, characteristic of the
Empire Period in Europe, but re
lieved by some American pieces,
especially the sofas and certain
chairs of excellent workmanship."
Nine Groups
Mrs. Elliott staled that she
had found period furniture to be
classified in nine groups. She
gave die names and dates of
these groups and then gave a
short description ot each witn
emphasis on those periods or
styles which are most likely to be
•een m homes today. She likewise
showed plates to illustrate the
different styles.
Mrs. Wilson announced that
Mrs. Frank W. fepindler will
six'ak on Old Glass a. tile March
meeting of the club, to be held
in the home of Mrs. C. F. Mc
Rae. Members were urged to bring
samples of old glass that they

Primary Teeth Are Important Factors
In Normal, Healthy Child Development
(Editor's Note: American
Dental Association sponsored
the fifth annual National Chil
dren's Dental Health Day, Mon
day, Feb. 2, to focus public
attention on the need for more
dental health education and
eare for children. The Farm
Tille Herald, in co-operation
with Farmville dentists, pre
sents the second in a series of
educational articles about den
tal health for children.)
Jane. 18. graduated w ith honors
from a mid-western nigh school,
last June. He^ intelligence quo
tient qualified her for college.
But Jane decided to take a job as
a scrubwoman in a downtown of
fice building at night. She said
she didn't have the funds for col
lege. even though scholarships
were hers for the asking.
The real reason for this flight
from reality was Jane's embar
rassment over her appearance.
She didn't want people to see her
because she had a severe defor
mity of the teeth. They were out
of position. Her cuspids Jutted out
high in the gums, so they looked
like fangs. Her incisors or front
teeth were widely separated. Her
upper jaw protruded over her
lower.
Jane's condition is known den
tally as “malocclusion,'' meaning
irregularities in tooth position.
A survey by the Chicago Board
of Health showed almost half of
Chicago's school children had the
condition in varying degrees.
One of the chief causes for it,
the survey found, was premature
loss of primary, or first, teeth.
The survey concluded that a ' dis
eased primary tooth can be as
hazardous as a diseased perma
nent tooth.”
Here is what happens when a
primary tooth comes out too
early becaaise of decay: teeth on
either side of the gap tend to
drift together and close the va
cant space. A few years later,
when the permanent tooth Is
ready to come in, there isn’t room
for it where nature intended. It
may. therefore, push its way
through high up in the gums.
With teeth erupting in odd po
sitions in a growing .law, the
child's facial symmetry may
change decidedly. In this tele
vision era. when society is more
conscious of the value of beau
tiful teeth than ever before, this
can be a personal tragedy.
No one knows how much .juve
nile delinquency stems from the
rebellion of a dentally deformed
voungster against a society that
.tjeerihgly called him "rabbit
face." or "Andy Gump," or "drip
ping teeth."
Social workers believe there are
hundreds of girls like Jane who
gave up life coals at an earlv age
and retreated from the world.
The story of primary teeth neg
lect doesn't end with a lost per
sonality. Well-functioning teeth
are a. necessary part of a child's
digestive apparatus, particularly
I in a period of rapid growth and
i development. With the capacity
| to chew affected, proper foods
j often cannot be eaten.
Neglected primary teeth can be
I a factory, too. in gum disease so
! prevalent in later life.

Xeus For Veterans
VA Sounds GI
Insurance Warning
Hundreds of Vir„.nia veterans
stand to lose thousands of dol
lars In lapsed OI tcnn life insur
ance during 1953, unless they
reinstate and renew ihosc policies
before the expiration date of
their policies.
In making this announcement.
Veterans Administration said the
policies involved arc lapsed term
National Service Lift Insurance
'NSLIi that were issued to two
groups of World War II and post
World War II veterans in this
area.
The first group were World !
War II veterans who took out
NSLI policies while they were in
service during the year 1945. The
second group were World War II
and post-World War II veterans
who took out term policies while
they were in service during 1948.
The first group had policies with
8-year terms to run. and the sec
ond group's policies had terms of
5 sears, both of them expiring
juring tfie year 1953.
In Virginia, approximately 24.
500 veterans are aifected and
stand to lose about $195,000,000.
If veterans in both groups do not
wish to lose altogefher the insur
ance coverage under these poli
cies. they must reinstate them
before the policies expire. VA
said. Otherwise, unuer present
laws, they will not be eligible for
further GI life insurance.
Policies may be reinstated by
applying to a Veterans Adminis
tration office. If tiic policy has
been lapsed for three months, the
veteran must pass a physical
examination. The payment of
i wo monthly premiums is also re
quired.
President Eisenhower has or
dered the Bureau of Labor Statis
tics to revive, until June 30. its
old cost-of-living index and to
publish it along with the revised
index which will be the govern
ment's official index for public
policy purposes.
The Service of "Mr. 4%” is reflected in
Jefferson Standard’s
*
46th Annual Report
MORE PROTECTION FOR MORE PEOPLE. Jefferson Standard during
the past year continued to grow in stature and in usefulness to the insuring
public. New life insurance placed by the company's lieldmen in 1952 ex
ceeded $153 million, a 209r increase over 1951. Insurance in force reached a
new high of $1,136,600,000. a gain of $97 Million for the year.
Today Jefferson Standard is providing a measure of financial security for
more than 350,000 policyholders in 29 states, the District of Columbia, and
Puerto Rico.
Payments to policyholders and beneficiaries during the year just closed
amounted to $13,500,000, bringing total payments since organization of the company to $226 Million.
Assets ot the company increased by more than $28 Million to a year-end total of $324,852,407.
Investment earnings were maintained at a high level throughout the year, and JefTcrson Standard for the
sixteenth Near leads all major life insurance companies in rate of interest earned on investments.
"WHO IS MR. 4%?"
Mr. 4% represents the Jefferson Standard
Jefferson Standard, now guaranteeing 2':rc on policies currently
issued, has never paid less than 4',' on policy proceeds left on deposit
to provide income. Four per cent is the highest rule of interest paid
by any major life insurance company in America!
Mr 4rr. a welcome v isitor in the homes and offices of thousands of
policy holders, is pointing the way to extra ituomc through 4rr. llis
friendly counsel is helping policyholders anti beneficiaries toe life
insurance more effectively—the Jefferson Standard way.
For Example
On a M 0.000 life insurance policy, interest income at 21$ Co
amounts to only $250 per vear ... at 4rf it amounts to 5400

Farmville And Industry
P*ARM YILLE has made steady, substantial
industrial growth during the past
twelve years. Interesting statistics gather
ed by the Herald in an editorial of-March
19-11 point to the fact which too often is
overlooked.
In 1921, from records and estimates we
find 252 employees in industrial work with
an annual payroll of $112,699. In 19-11, says
the editorial, eleven industries employed
925 with an annual payroll of $575,000. In
1952, ten firms employed 797 with an an
nual payroll of $1,626,600. These figures
are approximate and are used only to show
the trend. Manufactured products include
shoes, building materials or millwork. pack
ing boxes, garments, dairy products, and
printing and laundry services. No addition
al industry has been established in Farm
ville during the past twelve-year period,
however a steady growth and development
are indicated in those well established.
Another important observation is the diver
sied nature of the local industries.
One or more additional manufacturing
plants would complement the present
plants and attract additional local labor,
thereby furnishing additional payroll for
the trade channels.
Industry is attracted to locations best
suited for its particular operation. Trans
portation. water supply, availability of a
suitable site and employees, either trained
or callable of training, are major considera
tions. Many other factors enter into the
selection of a location, some being peculiar
to the type of product. Each of these fac
tors is considered in competition with those
to be found at other locations. Selection of
locations is highly competitive.
Quite often the locality is expected to
provide some assistance. Some years ago
when industry began to move south, many
towns vied with each other in extravagant
offers. Firms seeking new locations now
are looking more carefully at the natural
advantages, secondarily considering local
offers of financial nature. However, manu
facturers quite often desire locally provid
ed housing for their employees, or financi
al backing in securing a suitable building.
The Herald suggests that the business
men interested in locating additional in
dustry in Farmville organize a development
company with a constituted board of direo
tors and officers. Sufficient capital could
be paid in or pledged to promote and
develop the local potentialities. An inform
al group, the Chamber of Commerce or town
officials can and have served as point of
contact for industrial survey and promotion
but an organization constituted for the
purpose, with financial standing is ulti
mately necessary to effect the location of a
plant. Past experience will bear this out.
A practical step would be to organize the
development company first and then pro
mote the advantages of Farmville.
One or two well-adapted industrial
plants would be desirable.
You Asked For It
EVIDENT EISENHOWER has ordered
sharp restrictions dn tin* spending
authority of all departments and agencies
in tile government. This was his first major
effort to balance the budget and reduce un
necessary expense. In taking this action
the President is fulfilling his campaign
pledges.
Reduction of federal employees is going
to hurt somebody. Those who are cut off
. will have to find employment in private in
dustry. possibly come back home and find
their places. Demand for clerks, steno
graphers ami secretaries is active in most
communities and it shouldn't be too diffi
cult for private business to .absorb efficient
employees whose government service is dis
coid imied.
Actually, Budget Director jloscph M.
Dodge, sent out the notifications to the de
partment and agency chiefs. The letter of
instructions is reported to have contained
orders for a curb on the hiring of new em
ployees and limitations on new construction
projects. The instructions also prohibit
government units from increasing their ex
penditures above the .January level.
Dodge also reportedly asked for sugges
tions as to revisions downward in the hud
get proposed by former President Truman.
That budget contained expenditures of
$78,600,000,000. Mr. Truman estimated
receipts at about $10,000,000,000 less than
that amount, thus indicating a budget de
ficit of approximately ten billion dollars.
The Eisenhower move to balance the
budget, and cut Federal expenditures, is a
weldame move and one which has been long
awaited by the American public. One can
only hope it is the first of a number of
major efforts to cut out deadwood, elimi
nate unnecessary spending and reduce the
level of expenditures generally. It is the
hope of most Americans that the efficiency
of their government can be increased by a
reduction in the number of employes. It is
well known that some feather-bedding in
government where employees have actually
become so numerous as to impede efficiency
of operations.
While we assume that Mr. Truman was
completely sincere in his belief that the
budget could not be cut further, we cannot
accept a theory which presumes the vast
multitudes of government workers to be
absolutely essential to the last man. We
hope to see thousands of jobs eliminated
and billions of dollars saved, and any lesser
result from the Eisenhower Administration
w ill In' a disappointment.
' Mi \\ ay Back
(Ji'iuTalissimo Cliiany Kai-shek recent l.v
responded to President Kisenhower’s de
neutralization of Formosa with a statement
reiterating his determination to reyain
< hina. The leader of Nationalist ('hina
called the Kisenhovver decision "not only
judicious, but militarily and morally
sound."
The most interest iny part of Kai-shek’s
statement was his announcement that the
Chinese Nationalists would not seek the in
fantry of any other nation in the effort to
reyain < hina. In addition to other assur
ances. he said: "I would like to assure our
friends abroad that the Republic of China
will not ask for aid in yround forces from
any nation to achieve our yoal."
It. oi course, remains to lie seen whether
Kai-shek, with the limited manpower at Ids
command on Formosa, can build and lead
an army strony enouyh to rout tin- Chi
nese Communists w no will, no doubt, be
aided by Russia in any renewal ot Chinese
• civil war. However, the intention not to
use foreign infantry, is all-important, and
Pile can only hope that it will be adhered
1". even il it means delay in the regaining
of China by the Nationalists.
There are methods which the United
States can adopt which would help the Chi
nese, and which might bring about long
term pressure to enable the Nationalists to
reconquer their homeland. These methods
consist of naval blockade, and other pres
sures. both economic and political. (Jen-:
eralissimo Kai-shek, in the meantime,
could stage commando raids on the coast,
deudop a larger Chinese underground force
and encourage all Chinese to throw off the
shackles of Communist domination.
This process might conceivably require
some years before the full eflects would be
felt. However, it is superior to the alter-1
native, which would require United Nations
troops to help Kai-shek do the job, and is
the logical approach to the Chinese prob
lem.
The goal of the Eisenhower Administra
tion. regarding China, 'should he, and ap
parently is, to do everything short of in

I.csson for February 22, 1953
AN February 22 we celebrate
the birthday of a man who tit
is said) claimed he could not tell
a lie That is an exaggeration. Al
most any man can tell a lie if he
tries hard enough. But even if this
were such a wonderful world that
literally nobody could tell a lie,
it might still not be the ideal
world. For what is most important
is not choking back the falsehoods,
important as that is. The big thing
is to tell the truth. And it is even
harder to tell the truth and tell it
right, than to keep from lying
Truth can be told m a dull way so
that no one listens to it If truth
is worth telling it ought to be
pointed. —and when we say ' point
ed" we mean that three ways.
* * *
Pointed At—
For one thing, truth may as well
not be told at all if it is nut pointed
at somebody. There's no use tell
ing your deaf old grandmother
about the circus; she's nut going
rhere is nr use
telling a small
baby to keep his
face c 1 e an
There's no use
giving a lecture
on space-heating
to an audience of
Hot t e n t o t s;
they "r e hot
enough already.
You’re talking to
the wrong people. ,,r- foreman
Truth ought to be fitted for. and
pointed toward, the people who
need it The Master-Teacher him
self showed how this is done Much
of Jesus’ most vital teaching was I
directed to what we would call
"hecklers " Sometimes their qucs- j
tions were meant to trip him up ’
'like the three recorded m Mat
thew 22) Sometime they were j
asked from mere curiosity, .scene
times they were* desperate gi p- ;
mgs for light But whale vor the !
motive. Jesus ah-, ays guv< them
answers—plus, lie would take ad
vantage of the moment to push m
a pointed truth If only preachers
and Sunday school teachei s and
politicians too would spend more
time answering the questions peo
ple do ask. instead of questions
they don’t ask!
Sharp Enough To Stick
There is another sense in which
truth, to be effective must be paint
ed. It lias to be the opposite of
dull. Now there are situations
where truth can be dull, and wel
come. If you are looking up in the
encyclopaedia the population of
North Dakota, or trying to find out
what niacin is. you don't want to be
amused, startled or entertained.
You just want plain fact, plainly
stated. Professors and other studi
ous people arc trained to absorb
truth no matter how dully it is
presented. It's a poor student w ho
can t learn as much from a dry
professor as from a witty one.
But most human situations are
not in class-rooms. Truth that is
not dry. ought not to sound dry.
Truth that's worth remembering
ought to be told in such a w ay that
it can't be forgotten. Again, our
Lord's teaching was of this sort.
He never told a dull truth, and he
never told his bright truth in a
dull way. His sayings are all point
ed; they have a way of sticking in
the mind What he says flashes in
the eye like sunlight on steel.
There was no one around taking
notes wh' ii Jesus spoke His say
ings are remembered not because
somebody had a ;.d notebook but
because what hr said, stuck.
“To The Point"
What do wc mean by a point
less jokr or a pointless remark?
Wc mean, of course, that the thing
was not worth saying, however
true it may have been. Wc want
people to speak to the point. If
we are going to listen to them wc
w ant them to be saying something
that is worth saying, something
we'll be worse off for not knowing.
Now again Jesus' teaching was |
pointed truth in this sense. It was
relevant truth, it was truth dealing
with specific situations. He came I
"down to brass tacks’’ as we say
His teachings did not float away
up in the clouds, they came down
to earth and walked there. They '
had to do with people's real prob
lems. And what we shall find out.
if wc study Jesus’ teachings faith- ;
fully, is they deal with our prob
lems today too. The problem of
the demands —sometimes seeming
to conflict—of church and state, of
country and conscience; the prob
lems of death and of the life be
yond; the problem of how best to
serve and obey God; these con
cerned the men of ancient Judea,
they concern us no less. Jesus'
words arc just as pointed today as
they were nineteen centuries ago

RIPPLES
Today I sit beside my lake.
The sun shines blight on high.
There are no clouds above my head,
The azure blue's the sky.
1 gaze on the sparkling water
That ripples there until
The ripples all have vanished and
The water's calm and still.
1 can only see the surface
And have no way to know
If the ripples on the surface
Affect the depths below.
And about our lives, 1 wonder
If ripples there once start,
They affect the surface only
And fail to stir the heart.
Whether ripples on the water
Affect the depths below,
Is a thing I cannot answer.
I have no way to know.
That the stream of Life when rippled,
Oft leaves an inward strain:
Tho calm and still its face may be
In heart it brings us pain.
I know because I have met you.
Then from you had to part;
And the ripples on Life’s surface
Lie buried in my heart.
This heart you stirred will never be
Jlist as it was. again ;
Tho your presence gave me pleasure.
Your going brought me pain.
1 do not blame you for it now
Because this had to be.
I shall cherish you forever
Deep in my memory.
My lift enjoyed the ripples when
They played upon its face,
But scars within my heart
The years can ne'er erase.
The world sees only tne surface
And has no way to know
About the joys and t he sadness
Down in our hearts below.
That the ripples on Life’s surface
Affect the heart below,
I answer ves, and that's because
I have a way to know. 1.. I >. Whitaker

'I he one big question in the
mind of a man or boy who is
thinking cl buying a boat in kit
form is. ''Can I put it. together
so I'll have a good boat?
Willard Crandall, expert on all
matters concerning boating, says
of course vou ran if you're at all
handy with tools. Just the same,
there are some "howevers." You've
got to pick a model of good de
sign. one suited to your water
ways. your load and your motor
or y u may not have anything
worth putting together.
Don't make you first attempt
anything as large as an outboard
cruiser. Practice with a pram will
give you fundamental knowledge
that can pay off if you want to
tackle a big boat later.
Practically all kit boats are
made of sheet plywood For mak
ing assembly easy, there's nothin t
like plywood. It makes a good boat
for most small boats there is
no better material.
Plywood has one drawback,
however—it does not take abra
si n too well. If you want to keep
your boat always tied at a pier,
or K you are going to drag it on
shallow bottoms or pebbly beach
's. usually it'll be best to pass up
.he plywood and kit idea.
A true round-bottom b at can't
be built from sheet plywood. It
won't bend that way. That's why
you don't find canoe kits on the

Double Check
I heard and saw where the
Democrats were trying to pass a
tut in taxes to the Republicans
up in Washington and the Ad
ministration don't want it. And
tlie Democrats are gi ttnig togeth
er in all sorts ol conclaves for
tlie good of the party an. for the
good of the county—and that the
Republicans can't produce the
•uighful atrocities that they
charged the Democrats with dur
ing tlie great campaign of 1952.
WHO ever thought L.ey could?—
Folks just fooled themselves.
Now we are on that long long
trail- and it's a winding. Lincoln
days and Jackson days Bond-a
montli and if n you don't watch
'em they'll be back together again.
So mixed you can't oil one from

the wind changed—now it all
comes back to me.

exemptions—both tax and draft.
At least the White House is still
open to Democrats .... mighty

Bleeding Wounds
Do Not Endanger
Our Friendly Trees
Around February and tradition
al St. Valentine's Day. freedom
has more than its quota of
"bleeding hearts " That is because!
some arboreal friends, notably
maples and to leaser extent
birches, have a profuse sap flow
from bark wounds.
But tree friends needn't be
alarmed. This is a seasonal
phenomenon. Actually, the bleed
ing. which on cold days may form
spectacular "icicles ' ordinarily is
not harmful to the tries. Amateur
tree docs frequently wsualize this
display as comparable to the loss
of blood in humans. Nothing
could be further from the truth.
Invariably, howevei. appeals for
help flood tree experts in all parts
of the country. Woined home
o\\ ners are reassured in short
order that everything is as nature
intended.
Loss of sap seldom perils the
trees. Dramatic pioot is the thriv
ing maple sugar industry in Ver
mont. New Hampshire and other
sections where native maples
thrive. Ai nually. these trees are
taliped for their luscious product.
Some nave been giving of then
sap for more than a century with
no apparent adverse effect.
In bleeding, the sap so spec
tacularly spilled consists mainly
of water. This is easily replaced
by the root system. Sugar and
some minerals are included in the
run-off. But normally healthy
trees continue to thrive.

THE CHURCH UD THE COMMUNITY
The Church on the corner or at the crossroads
stands for three of the most important phases of
community life—the social, intellectual and spirit
ual development Of its people. _
Within its hallowed precincts the rich and the
poor, the high and the low meet on common ground
and learn to share each other’s joys and sorrows. It
is the social center of the community, where people
learn to mingle and cooperate and be friendly.
The accumulated knowledge of past ages was pre
served and transmitted to us by the Church and its
religious institutions. The Church pioneered in
modern education, built great colleges and universi
ties. and works in full harmony with the schools in
every community.
But the Church performs its highest and holiest
mission in the realm of the spirit. All its other
services are contributory to this supreme end, that
it may teach men to know God and love and serve
Him. It opens up a vast new world of faith and
hope and joy.

Poor Seed At Any Price
Is Always Too Costly to Planter
Progressive farmers recognize
that the kind and quality of seed
they sow largely determine the
value and quality of their crop.
They have learned they cannot
save money by" buying uncleaned
or Superficially cleaned seed from I
a neighbor or cheap seed from
an unknown truck peddler with- ;
out documented tests of its pur- |
ity and germination. Experience
has shown such "cheap seed" is
really the most costly seed they
can buy.
Yet a large part of the seed
grain used for sowing is only
farm cleaned. Much of it is
sown as it comes from the com
bine or thresher, a practice that
should be discouraged.
Where the fields have been kept
relatively free from weeds and
the farmer maintains a seed in
crease plot for each variety
grown, so that the seed is kept
pure and as free as possible
from weeds and disease, the use
of farm-cleaned seed grain for
iarge acreages may be defended,
but this advice does not apply
to small - seeded legumes and
grass seeds.
It is out of the question for
every farmer who wishes to sow'
alfalfa, red clover. Ladino. clov
er, hairy vetch, bromegrass,
orchardgrass or any one of many
other legumes and grasses to
produce his own seed, or if he
does produce it. *o obtain the
high quality, disease - free and
weed-free seed he desires for
sowing.
The seed industry has millions
of dollars invested in regular and
special seed cleaning machinery.
I 11 1 — ■ —i n . ' ■ i"» ■■■■ .
Wha* Makes Good Seed
1. Adapted variety
11 High yield records
3 High quality of crop
4 High seed purity
5 Small total weec. seeds
(1. Freedom from noxious
weeds
7 High germination
it Freedom from diseases
The L>.” id.mts operate their o. i: i
seed-testing laboratories, employ
skilled workmen and technicians,
to process, refine and control the
quality of farm seed from its .
original country-run or rough
cleaned state into the high quality
standards required by present
day agriculture
Considered on price alone, the
difference between high-quality
recleaned and farm-cleaned seed
is very little. Take red clover, at
50 cents per pound for high
quality, tested seed against say
35 cents for the unknown qual
ity. the so-called “baigain" seed.
At 10 pounds per acre, the differ
ence is only $1.50 pci acre.
The seed cost is small com
pared with the expense of pre
paring the land and doing the
seeding. It is certainly folly to
risk a poor stand or invite an m
fectation of weeds or disease
when for so little more these un
necessary risks can be avoided.
Recleaned, refined, tested and
tagged seed is the most econ
omical seed to use. It gives you
the kind of crop insurance you
Want at low cost.

The Federal Reserve Board has
reported that the personal debts

Rotation Helps
Control Tobacco
Plant Diseases
Plan to follow a definite rota
tion in the tobacco field.
S. B. Fenne, plant pathologist
at VPI, says blackshank. rootknot.
and in fact, all soil borne diseases
are always much more severe if
tobacco is grown in me same soil
year after year.
He cites some results of tests
at the Chatham branch of VPI
Agricultural Experiment Station,
which point up the value of rota
tions. There, researchers have
found that a two-yeai rotation of
tobacco wheat, and led top the
first year, followed the second
year by W'heat and red top, re
sulted in a good yield of high
quality tobacco.
Rotations including a legume
such as vetch or clovei usually in
crease the pounds of tobacco and
also the yield of coin which may
follow, but unless caie is taken
there is danger of producing
Heavy, rough tobacco. If corn fol
lows the legume it will remove
I much of the nitrogeh in the soil
and should result in high quality
tobacco.
Production Tests Bring Recognition
To Prince Edward Guernsey Cows, Bull
J
Some of the herds of members
of the Dairy Herd Improvement
Association of Prince Edward
have been making valuable re
cords which have been recognized
by the American Guernsey Cattle
Club and by the Bureau of Dairy
Industry of the United States De
partment of Agriculture
Announcements have been re
ceived recently that two Guernsey
cows in the herd of W. B Gates
Sons of Rice have made excellent
records of production. Evergreen's
Golden I.ady. a ten year old
Guernsey has just produced a re
cord of 11 009 ixiund.s of milk and
537 pounds of butterfat and was
milked 596 times while on test.
She is the daughter of the famous
■sire. Midvicw's Golden, that has
46 daughters and one son in the
Performance Register of The
American Guernsey Cattle Club.
Top Jnn'or Cow
Another re corn made by Cherio
>f Molly Brook belonging to W.
B Gates Sons, Rice, has pro
duced 8.439 pounds of milk and
460 pounds of butterfat. This re
eord has also just been released
by the American Guernsey Cattle
Club from official records of Herd
Imorovement Registry. Cherlo

was milked 594 times while on
test She is the daughter of the
outstanding Guernsey sire. Mid

has 22 daughters in the Perform
ance Register of the American
Guernsey Cattle Club.
Proven Bull
Also just received is informa
tion that Guernsey bull, Midview
Charmer’s Prank, belonging to F .
H Johns of Parmville. has just '
completed a record which places |
him in the proven sire class, since !
six or more daughters of this bull !
have produced an average differ
ence of 1.791 pounds of rnilk more
than their dams and average but - ;
ter fat production of 103 pounds
more than their dams.
These records are gathered by
the D H I A Supervisor and
indicate the progress being made
by these dairymen having the
production of their herds check

SEED TREATMENT
OF SMALL GRAINS
ADVISED AT VPI
Seed treatment of spring oats is 1
particularly important this year
to control loose and covered smuts .
—diseases which have caused!
widespread losses in recent years.
S. B. Fenne. plant disease special- I
1st at VPI. says theie was much I
more smut on oats than usual in
1952, and this means more seed
will be contaminated.
Second blights also can be
largely controlled by chemical
seed treatment. Fenne's advice:
Be sure all small grain seeds are
thoroughly cleaned Defore treat
ing. A cleaning Job will remove all
undersized, shriveled, diseased
grains, and will leave a more uni
form lot of seeds to be treated.
Proper cleaning also will remove
weed seeds that may be present.
Treat at least 24 hours before
I planting with one-half ounce of
1 ceresan dust per bushel of seed.
Treatment may be done several
i weeks before planting if the seed
, is stored in a dry place.
A mixing machine, such as a
barrel, a cement mixer, or an old
churn, will be needed. A chute ar
i rangement called the Minnesota
Seed Grain Treater is easy to use.
It saves time and does a thorough
; job. It is easily built on the farm,
: and plans are available from
county agents.
Treat the seed out-of-doors, or
in a well-ventilated room, and
store out of reach of animals.
Treated seed is poisonous, and
therefore should not t>e fed to
livestock.
Fenne points out that seed
treatment of spring oats pays for
itself many times in increased
crop returns.

Tigers Hopeful
Of Clinching M-I)
Bid This Week
Hampden - Sydney's Tigers —
turned giant killer in the Mason -
Dixon Conference — have two
opportunities to add to their
bright, four-game winning streak
this week.
Coach Waldo Matthews' Ben
gals play Bridgewater’s Eagles a
return game at Bridgewater Wed
nesday night, and are hosts to;
Newport News Apprentice School;
Friday night at Death Valley.
A victory over the Eagles, beat
i en by the Tigers 57-48 pn the
home court December 12, will just
about clinch a berth in the Ma
son - Dixon tournament next
month.
The Tigers' current streak, con
tains some sweet memories for the
Garnett and Gray court warriors,
who entered it suffering from a
difficult schedule and the varag
ries of a tough losing streak
Since February 6. the Death
Valley squad has swamped Wash
ington College, spilled John Hop
kins olood for the first time in
the current M-D race, put the
: Randolph-Macon Yellow Jackets
I below them in the conference
race, and humbled Towson Teach
ers.
There's another night coming
up when the Tigers will be hope
ful of a performance they now
have demonstrated they can have
Richmond's high and mighty
Spiders come to Death Valley
February 2(i.
Randolph-Macon scared the life
out of Coach Les Hooker's Spid
ers the other night at Ashland be
fore losing by two points. The
Tigers may do a little clawing,
come February 2ti. on their own
account.

Jackson, widower, of record m the
Clerk's Office of Cumberland
County in Deed Book ti. page 451:
At the date of the aforesaid deed
from Willis Jackson, widower, to
the said Myrtle McDaniel, there
was of record in the Clerk's Of
fice of Cumberland County. Vir
ginia. a deed from the said Willis
Jackson to A B. Aimstrong. as
trustee, conveying the aforesaid
property in trust foi the benefit
of the wife of Willis Jackson for ,
her life and at her death to go to
the children of their marriage,
said deed being on record in Deed
Book 38, page 371. The intention
of the deed from Willis Jackson, i
widower, to Myrtle McDaniel was
intended to convey the interest
of all the children of Willis Jack
son and his then deceased wife
and that the proceeds from the
sale were actually distributed
Mwwif those heirs and that the
failure of the aforesaid heirs to
sign the aforesaid deed was only
through ignorance of the fact
that they were necessary parties.
And further, that oy a certain
deed dated the 6th day of March
1691, of record in the Clerk’s Of
fice of Cumberland County in
Deed Book 36. page 263. one R. S.
Paulette conveyed to Willis Jack
son the aforesaid tract or parcel
of land: said R. S. Paulette con
veyed aforesaid land as the "sur
viving partner of the partnership
known as Hilliard and Paulette".
This deed of R. S. Paulette did
not purport to be a conveyance
by him in the partnership name j
but it was conveyed by him in his
individual capacity of surviving ,
partner. Therefore the compain- i
ants are of the opinion that the i
deed from R. S. Paulette, afore
said described, was not sufficient I
to convey the interest held by the j
other partner, James B. Hilliard,
in the aforesaid property.
