Sudden Attack OF
Appendicitis Was
Fatal To Medley
West Jefferson Boy Died In
Wilkes Hospital Sunday
Worked For Shell Cafe.

Carl Medley, 15-year-old West
Jefferson boy, who was perfect
picture of good health, died in the
Wilkes hospital last Sunday after
noon from an acute attack of ap-
pendicitis.
The first attack struck him last
Thursday afternoon and it was
thought at first that something he
had eaten had poisondd his sys-
tenn, but a short time afterwards
another examination disclosed that
he had suffered a acute attack of
appendicitis. He was rushed to the
hospital, but no operation was per-
formed as the physicians stated that
his case seemed hopeless since the
appendix bursted about "a hours
before he reached the hospital.
Carl was ikeable boy and had
a large number of friends here. He
worked for the Shell cafe. Funeral
service was held at the West JEFF
ferson Presbyterian Church Mon
day by Rev. J. w. Luke and burial
was made in the Wallace cemetery.

Mcintosh Stresses Need For
Vocational Training In Schools
club here last Thursday night.

club here last Thursday night.
MIR. Mcintosh, who resigned his
position this month to devote his
full time to making a careful study
OF educational curriculum needs,
stated that an alarmingly high per-
centage of children are dropping out
OF school each year before they fin
lsh even the seventh grade, and he
said this is largely due to the fail
ure of the schools to give the chill
dren what their native abilities and
environment demand.
"Our school system today isn't
holding them and it's not because
the children are all morons either
! he declared and cited these signifi-
cant and startling figures:
':In 1924 there were approximate
10000 children enrolled in the first
grades in North Carolina. In 1881,
seven years later, only 80 percent of
those children finished the seventh
grade and in 1885, only 16 percent
graduated from high schools.
"In other words, "a percent of
the children entering school in
1924 dropped out and fell behind in
eleven years time. Our school sys-
tenn simply did not hold them and
it certainly doesn't mean that all
Of these kids were morons, eth
er.
I'VE have got to broaden our cur
riculum to take care of this "a per-
cent-to train them how to live,
make living and enjoy life.
whats the use of requiring a
boy who is going to be a farmer
to master the French language. A
mule can understand English better
than it can French. We should teach
him how to farm"
! Mr.. Mcintosh stated that in Ashe
county agriculture departments in
the public schools are badly needed
and also suggested that manual art
shops be added so that the boys
cOulo De Taught now to make Vari-
Gus souvenir articles to be sold
along the Parkway.
The invention of machinery has
done away with much of the I'M
skilled labor, he stated and de-
clared that most of the people want
ing government jobs today are un-
skilled.
"In the United States today there
are 100000 young people between
the ages of Is and Is. One-fourth
of them are out of schools and one
third of them on relief" he said.
Rotarian A. B. Hurt was in charge
of the program. A program COM
mittee was appointed to assist in
making the rural Identification sur
vey in the county this week.

Graphical Family
eReunion Aug. FL
Annual Gathering Of Large Clan
To Be Held At The Camp
Ground At Fig.

The annual reunion of the Gray
beal family will take place this year
at the camp ground at Fig on the
third Sunday of August, which falls
this year on August 21st. That day
will be one of the Camp Meeting
Sundays, and it is expected that it
will bring the largest gathering of
the GRAPHICAL clan ever held. Wade
E. Eller, president of the GRAPHICAL
family organization, suggests that
all members of the family make
preparation, to attend and that the
date be passed on.
1t is hoped that GRAPHICAL table
may be arranged around which all
those present who are members of
the GRAPHICAL family may meet and
upon which every member of fam
lily who wish to do so may place
his lunch box. If this can be done,
it will indeed and in truth be
family dinner, for the Graybeals
are numerous. The descendants of
Peter GRAPHICAL, Henry GRAPHICAL,
and David GRAPHICAL constitute the
Ashe County GRAPHICAL Clan. Peter
GRAPHICAL lived near Jefferson, Da-
vid GRAPHICAL on Horse Creek. Hen
ry GRAPHICAL on the Big Laurel, and
they were brothers. David and Peter
both married daughters of Chris
tan Burkett and Henry married a
Henson.
There will be special program
dealing with family matters in the
afternoon, and it is hoped that the
family data which has been accumu-
1ating for several years will be
ready for general distribution.
In previous years members of the
family have attended the reunions
from North Carolina, Tennessee,
Virginia, West Virginia, New York,
Nebraska, and it is hoped that sew
eral other states will be represent
ed this year.
Rufus GRAPHICAL, of Mountain City,
Tenn, will be the chief speaker.

q In the Dionnes' Own Winter Playground
BY NEA Service

BY NEA Service
CALLANDER, Ont. Feb. L.
! TO anyone who has seen the "
onne quintuplets at play IN Ine
winter wonderland around the pa
foe Nursery, it is clear that they
are going to be expert at the cnar.
acteristic sports of their natlVe
north country. -
Right now, of course, the CUNTS
are just going-on-four, and they
show a trace of clumsiness IN their
first efforts to use skis, toboggans,
and Snowshoes.
But the way they take to them
and the evident pleasure with
which they romp in the snow un-
der sub-zero conditions, promise
later experiences.
Five shiny two-seater toboggans
have helped enliven the winter
sports program at the nursery TINS
winter. Light in weight, the girls
have had no trouble dragging
them to the top of the six OF sew
en-foot incline built inside the
play yard. They quickly picked
up the knack of holding fast to
the ropes and to each other.
Annette was the first to learn
to steer the toboggan in a curve
after leaving the chute. And the
very next trip all were trying
it, making progressively sharper
curves at the bottom.
The toboggan chute is built with
two parallel ramps, one cleated
for climbing up, and the other
smooth and snow-covered for the
thrilling descent.

IT isn't true what they say about
L love. Love has definitely NOT
gone streamlined. Lovers still
dote on chicken salad, fancy cakes
and ice cream. Especially on St,
Valentines Day.
If you plan buffet supper for
the l4th of February, supply
yourself with lots of lacy Valen-
tines, with red hearts and tender
sentiments, and a few good old
fashioned recipes.
All of which is not mere guess
ing: for several weeks have
asked caterers to the elite and
makers of Valentines to the mil
lions. They all say that we still
like our love served up in the
Dresden china manner.
Chicken Salad
(Serves 10 to l2)
Four cups diced chicken, free of
skin and gristle, l-2 cup chopped
sweet pickles, cup diced tart
apples, - cup chopped celery,
ga cup mayonnaise, l-2 cup
heavy cream, 2 hard cooked eggs,
chopped, l teaspoon salt, IA tea

Beat cream slightly, then COM
bine with mayonnaiSe and beat
until of the right consistency.

enough to give character. Chill

twined in garlandS of fragile
