 PRIMED FOR BID
 AGAINST GRADS
McFadden in Charge of Visitors; Crosby Looks
 Good at Hartford

off on the right foot against Hartford Public on "foregin" floor, Crosby High schools 1940-41 basket ball combination has another tough task ahead-it's annual clash with Alumni cagers, scheduled for Christmas night at the Wilby gym nasium. At Hartford, the lads coached by Bill Schofield had to finish fast and strong to pull out with 8 38-34 win which was hard earned but impressive, indicating that the taena must depend on speed and accuracy for its success this season, as, physically, it has no young giants, but, in Fisher, Han- non and Hanrahan 1t has a trio of keen-eyed basketeers, expected to improve steadily as the team Sched- ule is unraveled.

CHM, supervisor of the rural re-
|habilitation division of the FSA in
Brunswick and New Hanover coun-
ties, announced yesterday.
The number of loans to be made
in each county during the coming
IL months has not been determined
said CHM, who added that the num-
Der in each county would be limit
ed by the funds available and the
widespread demand throughout the
UNITED States for relief of tenacy.
The new loans, as were the old,
will be available to qualified tenant
farmers and farm laborers who
wish to purchase farms of their
own, but who cannot secure the
necessary credit from private sour
ces, or from any government agen-
cy other than the FSA. .
Tenant purchase loans r made
to specially qualified tenant farm
ers or farm workers, who must
be residents of the county and show
a high standard of farming ability.
Preference is. given family men
under middle age who have had ex-
tensive farming experience a n q
who passes sufficient livestock and
equipment wholly or nearly free OF
debt, with which to operate a fam
ily-sized farm. The term of the
loan is 40 years, with interest al
three per cent.
CHM said committees of farmers
in the county must pass on the
qualifications of applicants ane
may be consulted by prospective
borrowers in the selection of farms
Each borrower is expected to re
commend the farm he prefers tt
buy. The farms must be purchas
ed within the county.

RY WILLIAM E. GILROY, M. d.
Editor of Advance

The lessons for the third quar-
ter are found in messages from
the poets and they begin with
three lessons from the Book OF
Job.
These lessons have peculiar
timeliness, in view of the present
world situation of disaster a n d
suffering in which the problems
of Faith and Providence are
greatly stressed.
It is true that the Book of Job
deals with these things as they
affect an individual, greatly af-
fected and perplexed. alike by his
sufferings and by the quick and
ready-made PHILOSOPHERS with
which his friends tried to soothe
and help him. .
The problem becomes all the
more acute when we e it on a
vast scale where hundreds OF
thousands of lives are affected.

even countries, of innocent people

this vast problem of social dis

 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Hair Growth
 I am 50. Six months ago my physician put me on (daily rations of capsules containing optimal amounts of vitamins A, B complex, c, D) for anemia and poor condl- tion. I am still taking them, and have been astonished at the im- provement in my health and par ticularly in the texture and appear ance of my skin. Finally am no longer troubled with falling hair and excessive oiliness-my halr has be- come glossy and looking and a slight natural wave l had years ago has returned. (Mrs. B. T. F)
 Answer-Thank you. Of course the condition of the skin and hair reflect the state of nutrition. On request I am glad to mail pamphlet on Care of the Hair and Control of Dandruff"- f"-inclose stamped en- velope bearing your address. Goats Milk.
 Received a pamphlet showing that goats milk is a far more healthful drink than cows milk. What do you think? (H. M. J)
 Answer-Goat's milk is at least as wholesome, nutritious and healthful as cows milk. If you have your own goat or can buy goats milk at approximately the cost of cows
