Sunday School Teacher Tries
To IncuIcote Good Citizenship

marked with a devotion born of
genuine love of children"
A knitter In two wars, she has
taught many of her. school and
Sunday school how to knit. In
the recent war she knitted over
5000 hours, making socks, trigger
mits, stump socks, Iceland sweaters,
cardigans. toddler packs, everything
on the Red Cross list, except sea
boots.
They just never happened to
send me sea boots" she says, with
humorous twinkle in her merry
brown eyes. Her Red Cross serv-
ice bar of red has six silver bars,
each Of which represents over 500
hours Of volunteer work. And she
is still knitting. chiefly maroon car
digans for men in service hospitals,
Generally Known as Birdie"
Born in Cartersville. Ga,
her parents, Alexander Augustus
and Charlotte Hemphill Laramore,
named her Carrie Cleveland Lara
more. But when she was a baby
her brothers and every one else
called her Birdie because she was
small and had bright, brown eyes.
This nickname Of her childhood was
so universally used, it finally dis
placed her given name. Appointed
to teach in the Washington public
schools following her graduation
from college, she resigned to marry
John Walter Davis, manager of
the Foote & Davis Publishing Co.
of Atlanta. But when her husband
died less than three years after
her marriage, Birdie Davis returned
to Washington to take up her teach
ing again, bringing her mother and
little daughter Emily with her. Un-
der the name of Lottie Cleveland,
her mother contributed column
to the Atlanta Constitution and
other Southern newspapers. Emily
Davis, the daughter, is now infor-
nation specialist for the Bureau
of Human Nutrition and Economics,
United States Department of Agri-
culture.
Teaching little children is one
OF the most compensatory avoca-
tions one can have" she says of
her long public school and Sunday
school service. There are chores
enough, Of course, but there are
always so many worthwhile, sweet
and amusing things to remember
by way of contrast"

III Per Cent
Increase In
Auto Titles

PHOENIX, June 19-M. A. Good
win, superintendent of the state
highway department, motor vehicle
division, announced yesterday CLAP
certificates of title to automobiles
were issued between January and
June 1.
This represents an increase of "A
per cent over the volume of business
handled by the division in the cor
responding period of 1916, in which
there were 63,OO4 certificates issued.
Between January and June 1,
1945, only 47095 certificates were
isiued.
This years tremendous increase is
believed due in large part to a
great volume of transfers Of title
from one person to another. How
ever, new cars reaching salesrooms
of automobile dealers in the state
and new arrivals in Arizona from
other states registering with the
state department account for much
of the increase.
