Planning To Plant
White Pine Trees

James McLaurin of the Soil
Conservation Service said today
that he was making plans with
cooperating farmers to supply
them with white pine seedlings
for fall planting. Due to the
farm labor shortage and the large
number of trees needed in the
county, he said, it will e necessary
to start planting as soon after
cold weather as possible.
Farmers who have pledged to
them by the district or who are
interested in cooperating with
the district should plan on how
many trees they get planted this
fall and let either him or the
County Agents office know, Mr..
McLaurin said. In this way ar
rangements can be made to de-
liver them to the planting site
and they can be planted during
spart time when the farm work
is not urgent.

e Will TT>e icing Far A
Bus Terminal

Construction work has been
started on a business building
here on the vacant lot between
the Central Hardware company

Mr.. Woodie. who operates the

ture. It will probably be finished
within the next 80 days, Mr..
Woodie said.

present bus stationwhich is dl-
rectly across the street from the
proposed new one, has represent
ed the Greyhound lines here for

Expect To Open
Lunch Rooms For
Ashe Schools Soon
WPA Help In Operation Is To
Be Secured. Project
Is Needed

Supt. J. B. Hash said this week
that some of the w P A lunch
rooms would probably be opened
in the county within the next
two weeks according to plans now
underway. -,
After discussing the plans with
WPA authorities here last week.
Mr.. Hash said that they announc-
ed that some of the lunch rooms
would be opened soon.
There is a possibility that the
usual staff of workers cannot be
used due to the curtailment in
some phases of WPA work, it
was stated. '-..-.
Mr.. Hash pointed out that he
was very anxious to have the
school lunch rooms opened as
soon as possible and explained
that more details concerning their
operation would be announced
just as soon as plans with the
WPA were completed.
Due to the fact that the MAORI
ty of school children must eat
cold lunches, because of the lack
of lunch rooms, the project for
this is badly needed. WPA has
been operating a number of the
lunch rooms in the past and they
have proven quite popular and
successful in the county schools.

.Ashe County Is
Promised Scrap
Assembly Point
County's Total During Recent
Drive Expected To Run
Over 100000 Pounds

Following a request from this
paper, Col. Claude L. McGhee,
WPA administrator of the N. c.
scrap collection was in town this
week and announced that he be-
lieved a scrap collection point I'M
der WPA could be set up here.
IF it will mean more scrap and
if it is what you need and want,
we want you to have it,, he told
Post reporter, while in town on
Tuesday. Col. McGhee, who saw
much overseas service in World
War I, spoke of the Importance
of scrap in winning this present
struggle. In discussing the estab-
lishment of a scrap collection
center here he said that he would
have to work out plans with the
district supervisor Forester, Of
North Wilkesboro, but that he
felt sure that this could be done.
At the present time, scrap coll
lected here has been hauled by
WPA trucks to North Wilkesboro.
This has proven a bottle neck in
it's collection.
Roy H. Grouse, salvage chair
man, said yesterday that the to-
tai collections for the current
drive might run over the estima-
ted total of 100000 pounds. This
week State highway trucks have
been giving some assistance in
making collections in the county,
but there is much yet to be
hauled, he explained.
Complete figures from the
schools were not available for
publication. They will be an
nounced as soon as all of their
scrap has been weighed.

Give Furniture
To Co. Hospital

This week, an attractive suite
of furniture was presented to the
Ashe hospital for the reception
room by Mrs. Francis Porter and
her brother, Prof. R. E. L. Plum
mer.
The furniture, which is both
attractive and durable, is uphol-
stored in leather. 1t adds much
to the appearance of the reception
room, for which no regular furn-
iture had previously been pur-
chased.
Mrs. Porter, who was before
her marriage, Miss Plummer, is
a native of this county, but fol-
many years has made her home
in Cheyenne, Wyoming with he1
husband, DR.. Porter. She has
been interested in the hospital
for some time and Professor
Plummer has been active in its
interest since the movement first
started.

Idle Tires Are
To Be Turned In
By November II
Tires Turned In Are To Be
Bought By Government
Through r. r. Offices

The office of Price Admins
tration, this week, announces
rules and regulations for citizens
to follow in turning in to the
government all tires above five
in number in their possession,
giving the definition of an idls"
tire, which is any new or used
passenger-type tire.
Failure to turn in all idle tires
in the household by November
IL, will result in denial of gaso-
line rationing to any passenger
automobile owned by the house
hold. Tire record forms must be
filled out and filed with the To-
cal OPA, and tires bought before
Pearl Harbor must be included
in the rule, though the owner
may put these on his car and
turn in the older ones. Three or
more cars to a family are con-
sidered a fleet, and all idle tires,
as in the case of the individual,
must be sold.
Tubes are not included in the
program, though these will be
purchased also if the owner
wishes to sell them. Truck tiras
need not be turned in, though
idle passenger tires must be turn
ed in if set aside for use on
trucks. Trailers may retain the
tires on their wheels only, with
no spare. All used tires are now
frozen" and may not be given
to a neighbor or friend, but to
the government only.
Tires sold to the government
should be taken to the nearest
railway office, Where receipt
will be given, then a check will be
given shortly after inspection at
the warehouse for determination
of it's value.
