THIS is truly an ice cream age,
L for never was ice cream more
easily obtained or better than it is
now. Good ice cream can be
bought, and it can be made at
home-in freezer or in the freeZ-
ing tray of an automatic refrig-
orator. AS quick as a wink a
package of ice cream powder can
be turned into luscious dishes of
many-favored ice cream.
Here is a basic recipe for
freezer ice Greenland with the
addition of fresh fruits and ber-
ries or sauces, the recipe can be
varied in many delicious ways.

EANS had to wait two long
Il years for the Marx Brothers
new picture, "a Day at the
Races" but it was well worth
waiting for. It is almost too
funny, the laughs coming in
such quick succession that you
are still shouting over one comic
scene when the next hits you.
This picture tops their previous
masterpieces of hilarity by several
lengths. Groucho is, as usual, the
wise guy but when he goes to the
race track he is a gullible custom
er for Chico's sales talk on tips
on the races. Chico performs one
of those piano solos that makes
enough tough little boys want to
become piano virtuosos so they can
copy his tricks.
And Harpo is even greater than
usual. He talks-in pantomime only
at great length, and it is toss
up whether his pantomime or Chi
co.'s efforts to translate it into words
is funnier.

Prevention OF
Forest Fires Is
Most Important
Annual Forest Fire Loss Is
Great. Can Be Easily
Controlled.

The people of Ashe county, as
well as those throughout the south
land where the forest has such
high value, are again urged to
keep the fires out of the woods"
This thought was stressed extern
sivevly last week during the OBJ
servance of National Fire Proven
ton Week. Importance of the pine
woods especially, was cited, in view
of the fact that they are now in
demand for the development of the
paper industry.
Joseph c. Kircher, Southern
Regional Forester of the U. S. For
est Service in Atlanta, Georgia,
says that effective fire control is the
basis and essence of forestry and
that state and federal foresters and
other organized agencies have unit
ed in a concentrated drive to secure
adequate forest fire control. Due
to this effort, there are now in the
Southern Region more than eighty
million acres of forest land under
cooperation of the u. S. Forest
Service and the southern state for
estry commissions. Kircher stated
that this is an increase of approx
mately thirty-eight million acres
since 1888. He pointed out that the
timber thus saved is distinct con-
tribution toward the establishment
of permanent constructive industry
in the South.
Mr.. Kircher said that credit for
much of the progress made in fire
protection during the past few
years is due in a large measure to
the CCC. The organization of the
in the number of lookout towers
to detect fires, improvements in
communication systems to enable
rapid mobilization of men and
equipment, and the construction of
roads for quick transportation to
fire lines.
The annual appalling loss by for
est fire is needless waste of vi
tai resource that can be greatly
reduced through intellectually
cooperation on the part of the peo-
pie of the nation. 1t should be a
major purpose of every patriotic
citizen to stop tie continual burn
ing of this present and future
wealth. When you are in the woods,
render real public service to your
self and your neighbors by being
careful with fire.

HallOwe'en's Time
For Lots OF Fun

On Halloween, when witches ride
and weird spirits reign, is one of
the best times in the year to give
a party.
Cali formality must vanish Give
yourself over to the spirit of the
occasion and, young or old, you will
have good time," said Ruth Cur
rent, state home agent at State Col
lege.
Owls, black cats with curled tails,
witches, moons and other Halo
we'en decorations cut from orange
and black paper; pumpkins corn
stalks, red apples, and autumn
leaves; Jack-o-lanterns, silhouetted,
and scarecrows-au add weird
atmosphere.
Silver Christmas corn can be
woven into a spider web in one
corner. Paper spiders placed in
the center give it realistic effect.
The lighting is important. There
should be plenty of Jack-o-lanterns.
Other lights should be dimmed with
orange and red crepe paper.
For large group, several for
tune-telling devices can be placed
in different parts of the room, with
the guests going from one to an
other.
Or witches den may be con-
structed, dimly lighted with Jack
o-lanterns, and with witch sit
ting inside beside her cauldron to
tell the fortunes of all who enter.
A gruesome ghost story told by
one who has gift for storytelling
brings a dramatic climax to the
evening.

doughnuts, or sandwiches and cof-
fee, or pumpkin pie with whipped
cream, or ginger bread with coffee
or cider-maybe you will want to
add nuts, apples, or popcorn to the
list.

Many Persons Have Not Filed
Claims With Social Security
Board.
Especial To The POstl

Salisbury, Oct 25.-Thousands of
dollars are lying unclaimed in the
= United States Treasury because
those to whom the money now due
under the old-age insurance provi-
sions of the Social Security Act
have not filed claims for the
amounts due them, w. c. Spruill,
Manager of the Salisbury Field Of
flee of the Social Security Board,
which serves this area, said today.
A large number of workers in
covered employment who have
reached IS since January l, 1887,
and the estates or relatives of eligi-
BILE workers who have died since
December 81, 1896 apparently are un-
aware the Social Security Board is
making lump-sum payments now to
those persons who file claims, Mr..
w. c. Spruill said.
The same situation which exists
in this section seems to exist
throughout the country, inasmuch
as up to August l the number of
claims filed throughout the coun-
try for lump-sum payments totaled
only a fraction of the 100000 lump
sum payments actuarial experts
estimated would fall due during the
calendar year of 1887, Mr.. w. c.
Spruill said
"In Region Nv, comprising North
Carolina, the District of Columbia,
Maryland, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia, there have been 1,712 claims
filed to date. This is only part of
the number the Social Security
Board believes are due and would
pay if those ell gible file claims.
''There have been 389 claims filed
in North Carolina. The Salisbury
