When completed 100 beds ami 20 bassinets will be available for pa tients. The present demand for hospital can can be met adequately then. The cost of completing the hospital is 199,500, which will complete the second floor, now ‘‘hulled in”, to provide an ob tetrical department of 18 beds and 18 bassinets. Also, 11 beds will be provided for medical patients in the area now oc cupied by the Negro section, which will be moved to the east wing of the hospital. The area now occupied by the obstetrical department will be used for medical treat ment. Tims, the plan as conceived hv the architects in 1949 will have been com pleted. and the hospital will be an efficient operating unit. It will he recalled that the expansion program was begun in 1949. An estimated l !,st was made and a campaign to raise the necessary $255,000, our share, was sub scribed. The bids were opened in August of 1950. In the intervening period, the Korean “Incident” had occurred and prices of everything increased, with the result that the second floor had to be eliminated and a second campaign for $54,600 was neces ary to build the Mettauer Wing with the -I'cond floor eliminated. As construction proceeded and the hospital wing took -haw in 1951 it became apparent to every 1 nr that the walls and roof should be built r »ho second floor. A "Raise The Roof” campaign for $.‘>5,000 was successfully completed and the roof was raised. Since 1951, hospital demand has increas eel to such an extent that the second floor must be completed. For this purpose the present solicitation for $45,000, our share, is in progress. Fortunately, our community can obtain $199,500 in construction at the cost of $45, 000. The Ford Foundation allotted $44,600 to the hospital last year. Federal and State aid through the Hill-Burton program amounts to $104,500. The Lions Club in 1952 began a fund to complete the building by contributing $500, and other gifts and donations available amount to $5,000. Thus $45,000 is needed from our community to complete this project. For every $1.00 given locally on this drive, more than $4.00 has been obtained from other sources, $4 for $1. The Board of Managers and those con nected closely with the hospital believe there will be no further need for enlarge ment of these facilities in the foreseeable future. The hospital plant will have been completed. The dedicated people who have contrib uted $346,000 to this institution since 1950 will supply the needed fund of $45,000 for its completion, we feel sure. The sum is not impossible, if everyone will contribute a share in this undertaking. It is hoped that the campaign which began last Thursday will be completed quicklv and construction can begin at an early date. Dear reader, will you do your part in this undertaking? Your contribution, large or small according to your desire and abil ity. will be gratefully received, and will help in reaching this goal. Let's finish the job! New Worthwhile Institution I ONCW OOl) College launched its lnsti I tute of .Southern Culture Friday with a minimum number of references to magno lia trees and a maximum effort to appraise honestly some traditional aspects of South ern civilization: C the first three speakers in Friday’s opening series of lectures may be taken as typical of those to follow, the Institute flowed that it will serve not only as a pen >■1 rating, factual approach to a great tra dition. but unafraid to look with scholarly honesty. In Dr. Francis B. Simkins, Dr. Louis D. Bubin and Dr. Carder B. Taplin, the col • pro .anted three lecturers who disdain ! chauvinism for factual reporting, who ' tilted perceptive scholarship for mere ■ ■ rsement of ante-bellum glories. Dr. Simkins, professor of history at Longwood College, spoke on Virginia folk ways. their merits and defects and their '"■rCstent effect on modern education. In hf process he looked earnestly at our pre ■-> fit system of schooling, !>> tile afternoon, Dr. Rubin, associate !"v of the Richmond News Leader, dis ■ wsed the Civil War in Southern Fiction, w.'h illuminating remarks on the artistic u hiovoments and failures of that period o; regional writing. I he evening's concluding lecture pre Dr. I aplin. associate professor of 1 ngif di at Longwood, in a critical ap i rur al of essays on writers and literature appearing in the “Southern Literary Mes senger," which flourished with great repu tation and far-reaching influence in the years before the Civil War. The spring and summer lectures are to be only part of the Institute. It helps pro vide undergraduate and graduate studies as academic course work in the field of southern civilization, and it will serve as a symposium for the publication of re search in the field of Southern culture. I he comfortable, handsomely-appointed lounge in the student building served as a delightful locale for the Institute lec tures, all the more noteworthy because of the absence of townspeople who missed a rare experience in seeing what is truly “in side” their college. There was some competitive noise pro vided by disinterested students whom some someone forgot to brief on the activitity that was going on below or inside. There was also mild differences of opin ion with the speakers. Those who differed, however, did so with an acknowledgement that they none-the-less had been helped, stimulated and enlightened. A college activity that provides these de serves to be perpetuated. And it deserves support, by the alumnae association which provides financial backing, but also by townspeople—Virginians, whose love of region can only be strengthened by critical honesty. _jg g Babson Discusses Science Fairs $ Babson Park. Fla., April 18 Let me first apologize to the millions of rt cyrtrrs of my column for my y .1 f hieh school teachers. I daunt.! that while they are urging ‘••her pay and nev buildings, their i nferi i to the products ■ y • ars ago My experience '•ad been laigely with girls suppos ed, ly trained for secretarial work, but who cannot read intelligently, spell correctly, do fractions, type v ute efficiently, or use correct Eng Ncwspnpor Publisher's Experiment One day about a year ago. Mr, J. C. Council, publisher of the I ampa Tribune, decided to make a practical test of the Hillsborough County Hni; Schools. He explained to tin teachers of these and other high schools what he was endeavor to accomplish and how it should i done He selected three dates. ’"<■ last of March, and engaged one . the large Fair buildings having exhibit booths Each high school • class was asked to make an exhibit . soil'.' existing or future scien tific problem. They could make a television set. or an electric burner, ; oi an electric eye. or something else already existing. Or. these stu dents could imagine and illustrate i some new invention that may come in the future. Each class was as signed a booth with tables and elec I trical connections. The day I was there, teachers were present and the students came in fifty school busses. A few could not help pinching and exploding some balloons for weather forecast ing Otherwise, these several thou-i sand students behaved excellently. With my further apology to the girls 1 found the grand prize was tjiken j by a girl. Barbara Buerke. How ever. she was not trained to be a "secretary" but a commercial ar-, list Frankly, I was emotionally' moved to see the great interest and intelligence that most of these stu dens showed I came home bullish on our youth if they are allowed to work on subjects in which they, are! interested under the "Core" teach-J ina as advocated by Dr. Arthur' Combs of the University of Florida. Of course, there were great dif ferences among these boys and girls. Most of them followed the crowd and stopped only at booths surrounded by many people. Others were satisfied to collect free circu lars and pictures. These were the boys who should be content to al ways do manual work and the girls who should aim to be good wives and mothers. Many of these youths, however, had brought notebooks and made drawings of certain exhibits— they were very serious. For some strange reason, the majority of them had red hair or were blond! Bach year the three colleges which my family sponsors, Babson Institute for Men, Webber College for Women, and the Mid-West Insti tute. are visited by personnel direc tors of large corporations seeking the best graduates They look first for graduates of good character who have done well in their extra curricular work and have perhaps become officers of their classes. They want graduates with initiative i rather than those content with mak ing good marks. After my day with these Tampa youths I am sure that these personnel "scouts" should start by discovering such students when they are in high school, rather than wait until they are about to graduate from college. What High Schools Need Truly this group of Tampa young people with whom I associated are a "gold mine." I could pick out the leaders of Tampa's future with out looking at their examination papers or marks. I found, however, that some of the boys whom I would select were not popular with their teachers. Perhaps some of the stu dents felt that their teachers are not too able and are interested only in their salary and not in their stu dents. It is a common thing to know people who have a "green thumb" with flowers or a way with animals: they can get first prizes in flower shows and can easily train animals. This is not because they are better educated in horticulture or biology, but becouse they love flowers and love animals. The same principle [may apply to teachers: I wish that publishers in each of ! the 400 cities carrying my weekly ; column could follow the example of Mr. J. C. Council of the Tampa j Tribune. I realize that a few other i cities are already holding similar "fairs.” but It would be a wonder ful thing if such ‘‘fairs” could take j place once a year, or at least once jin four years, in each of these 400 j cities, The program would fill a j great need in most communities. It would be greatly appreciated by i teachers and graduates It would | help to hold these high school grad | uates within their own state for a icollege education, rather than lose ! them to some other community. ONE MORE THOUGHT: I believe more attention should be given to higher post-g r a d u a t e work—two years following college. In order to secure appropriations, presidents of state universities appear to feel that they must have as large an enroll ment as possible. Naturally, the average native intelligence de creases as the number of student increases. This tends to reduce thp standards for graduation. As a re | suit, these more efficient students ; too often do not return to the cities which educated them They take l post-graduate work in some other state and then remain there. I am not ruling out a higher education for those fitted only for trades or manual work. I. however, am argu ing that the future of every city depends on holding the most effici ent and ablest students. Cities brag : too much about their population ’ totals when their future really de i pends on the character, initiative and efficiency of their high school graduates. Let us hold these young people at home in the cities which raised them.

Letters To Editor Memorial Day Began in South Editor, The Herald: , ‘Fourscore and Eleven Years Ago'—The Civil War was over in • the South where tinder warmer skies and with more poetic temperaments, symbols and emblems are better j understood than in the practical North, April 26. 1866. the widows, mothers, and children of the Con federate dead went out and strewed their graves with flowers: at many; places the women scattered -them impartially also over the jesting j places of the Union soldiers. April 26 was chosen as the anni-1 versary of the last day of existence ; of the Confederate States, that be ing the date in 1865 when Gen. Jos eph E. Johnston surrendered at Durham, N C. The movement spread rapidly over the South. Several years later Gen. John A. Logan, Commander m-Chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, designated May 30 as Decoration Day to be observed by ' the people of the North. He did so after his wife suggested the custom following a celebration'of Southern Memorial Day which she had wit nessed on April 26. 1868. at Holly wood Cemetery in Richmond. Vir ginia. May 30 continued to be known as Decoration Day until after 1045, when the people of the northern states dropped that title and began using the Southern term. Memorial Day. May .10 is observed as a legal holiday in all the states and terri tories except Alabama, Georgia. Louisiana. Mississippi. North Caro lina and South Carolina. Thus out of sorrows common alike to North and South came this beautiful cus tom regardless of the day kept. If the men who gave their lives could see how the anniversary is desecrated by week end sporting events and Idling each other on the streets and highways by careless driving instead of ceremonies in their honor, they would feel perhaps they had been forgotten. Cordially yours, Everett A Trent Clayville, Va. Prohibit Alcoholic Advertising Says Farmville Reader Editor of Parmville Herald: I wish to express my apprecia tion of your policy in carrying no alcoholic beverage advertising in our local paper. The Parmville Herald. We enjoy reading a paper where there are no such ads staring, us in the face, as is the case with i the Richmond papers, and many others. However, we are glad to note that there are at least 12 per cent of the dailies in the United States that refuse to accept alco holic beverage advertising in any form. You may recall receiving a ques tionnaire in 1955 from the Virginia Methodist Advocate on this subject. I presume you have heard that your paper is one of only 25 weekly newspapers out of a total of 104 pub lished in Virginia that refuses all liquor ads. We are so glad that The Farmville Herald is one of the 25— j but there should be more. Of 32 j dailies in Virginia, only six refuse all liquor ads. "It’s a fact that two-thirds of to- j day's alcoholics began drinking: I while of high school age." This is the information given on a poster ; prepared by the Methodist Board of Temperance. I feel that all Christian people should work toward the elimination ! of all liquor advertising because of ; the injurious effects of beverage al ! cohol on health and character. The ! press, radio and television are pow erful influences in molding public ! opinion, particularly that of youth, towards the use of beverage alcohol. Have you heard of the bills in Congress to prohibit transportation of alcoholic beverage advertising in interstate commerce and over the air? These are S. 582 introduced : by Senator William Danger of North Dakota and H R. 4833 introduced by Congressman Eugene Siler, of Kentucky , The chairman of the Senate Inter state and Foreign Commerce Com mittee is Sen. Warren G. Magnuson i f Washington. His address is Sen ate Office Building, Washington, D C The chairman of the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce i Committee is Hon. Oren Harris of 'Arkansas. His address is House Office Building, Washington. D. C. We are asked to write these chair- j men and urge them to grant an early hearing on these bills this year, so that the House and Senate may have an opportunity to vote on them. Sincerely, Mrs. Florence T. Hallock 415 Pine Street, Farmville My Vision Of Sudden Death Editor of Herald: On evening during my sum mer's vacation I sat watching the traffic go by. Many cars were passing and the scene was beau tiful. It was very amusing but yet sad to watch some who were drivers of these fine cars. Some drove carelessly and some carefully. After many cars had •passed and the sun was slippnv. slowly away I still sat looking on. Now what do I see? A beautiful green car with a driver who is heavily intoxicated. He has lost control of his car en tirely and the car is now going very fast. The car skids arid slips down a | steep h i 11, overturning many i times. The driver is asleep, and sleep on he will.

HOW TO BURN A HOLE 11 IN YOUR OWN POCKET There ere «»lll tome people who Say: “Why worry about forest fires? There’s plenty1 of timber in this country. Besides, trees grow back pretty fast after a forest fire," Don’t you believe this. It takes 20 years to re place a pine forest, much longer for Douglas fir and hardwood forests. Wood is vital to your own life ... the floor you stand on, your chair, the packages that contain most of your food, your newspaper; perhaps, even, the clothes you wear. All—and more—may be derived from wood. As supply decreases, the cost of wood products increases, and you pay the higher costs. What ever the loss in forest fires, you pay the bill. < That’s why you may be burning a hole in your own pocket when you toss a burning match or cigarette from your car. iSmMOet -only you con PREVENT FOREST FIRES! i Like other American business firms, we believe that business has a responsibility to contribute to the public welfare.
