school at 7.
Mr.. Beaver didn't get to eIe-
mentary school at all but was
carefully tutored by an older sister
until he was able to enter high
school. Even so, he was almost %
when he was graduated.
When she was 10 Mrs. Beaver
underwent the first of six ortho-
pedic operations, which kept her.
cooped up in hospital for exactly
three months and three weeks. I"

About 1929. Mr.. Beaver, armed
with a strong constitution and
commercial high school degree,
left his native North Carolina for
the city of the white collar
Washington. After three years
he returned to Salisbury, to find a
certain girl. He came back to
Washington and settled down as
married man.
Deeply conscious of the ever
frightening strides medicine is
making in putting polio victims
back on their feet, the Beavers
leach year are in the front ranks
of the March of Dimes.
Their pride rests not in them
selves. but in their daughter,
Martha Ann, a fifth-grade student
at the Wheatley School. Doctors
have assured her, said Mrs. Beaver,
that Martha Ann will always be
immune to polio.

A lifetime partnership in cour-
age-that's the story of Mr.. and
Mrs. Floyd G. Beaver.
With a single variation, theirs
is the not uncommon story of
childhood sweethearts who even
tually married and lived rather
happily ever afterward.
The Beavers. who have one 10
year-old daughter, live at 1112
Raum street NE, as normally as
any family in the city. Each
morning it's off to work at the
General Accounting Office for
Mr.. Beaver, while his wife Lille
busies herself with the usual
housewife duties-cooking, laun-
|dering and keeping their apart
ment as spotless as a hospital
ward.
81 can do all the things any
woman does" said Mrs. Beaver,
not without a tinge Of pride in
her voice. And although he han
dies his job as competently as any
other GAO transportation special
ist, her husbands only regret is
that in his youth he didn't take
some other line of work-"like
watch repairing"
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Beaver were
stricken with infantile paralysis
in early childhood, at a time when
all the doctors could offer them
was a life on crutches. Since
about 1925. however. both have
been walking with the aid of a
cane-and asking no favors of life.
II didn't get on my feet until
was 10" related Mr.. Beaver. It
was then that neighbor made
him a pair of crutches, and each
morning gave the youthful cripple
a painstaking lesson in how to
walk until I learned to sling my
self along"
With Mrs. Beaver, who lived on
an adjoining farm near Salisbury,
NJ O., things We're only slightly
mare encouraging. Although doc
tors had said her lease was hope
less" when she was years old,
she was proficient on crutches

Let's Make It
A Good Year!
By Paige Strickland


By Paige Strickland
Into a world torn with strife and dissension,
comes this sparkling, brand new, pure new year.
It's pages have not yet had time to become soiled
and defiled with the hatreds and distrusts which
tear apart the races and nationalities which go to
make up our world. It is the devout hope of the Ex-
press that 1850 will see greater stridse toward
peace and good will among men.
Each year at this time this newspaper tries
to get inspiration for itself so that it can inspire
others. Not always an easy task, tho. Out of a tur-
moiled world we would like to see 1850 carve an
enduring peace for all people, and certainly that
is no simple task, albeit one which can be done but
do we will It SO and have the courage and strength
to carry that determination.
Somehow, this yearly message grows upon
us, in some fashion. It, begins to mean to us a clos
er bond between the Express and you who read it.
In SO many ways, a newspaper is an impersonal
creation - it leaves a gap between the paper and
you who read it. This annual greeting serves to-
leap that gap and to bring us, readers and news
paper, closer together.
No newspaper is greater than it's circulation,
meaning those of you who buy and read the Elk
press. Therefore our standing in our communit we
owe directly to you. Our standing gratitude goes to
you for your steadfast support of this paper and
it's advertisers. No newspaper expects to break any
where near even on circulation sales = it is our adj
~vertsers who keep our head above water. Yet were
it not for our readrs, we could not secure advertis-
ing, which makes it a grand circle.
At this time Of the year, men feel friendly
toward each other. God willing, may the day come
when the Yuletide spirit will endure in full strength
for a full 365 days for every year. No better New
Years resolution could be made by anyone.
&
We could consider no Yuletide message did
it not convey to you Express readers our feeling Of
gratitude over the unwavering support you have
given this newspaper during the six years of it's ex-
~istence. Newspaper publishing is at best a thankless
adventure; Express readers are a different breed,
for which we give eternal thanks.
For this new year of 1850, than, let us re-
solve to continue to pull together, you and us, for
a better community and for all the country and for
all the world. We are living in one of, The most
favored localities anywhere in the world. Teeming,
busting industries, lush farm lands, good roads and
schools and many home owners.
In q spirit Of humbleness, with huraaility and
friendliness toward all mankind, the Daily Express
wishes its readers q full Happy New Nlar.

Police Still Lack Clue
In Fatal Beating Of
Girl Near BIacksburu
BY the Associoted Press

BLACKSBURG, Va, Mar. 25.-
Police still did not know how
pretty Alice Marie Taylor was
killed today almost "a hours after
her bruised and battered body was
found beside a mountain highway.
The blond Roanoke Veterans
Administration worked died from
cerebral hemorrhage. But Cor
oner R. H. Grubb and police alike
admitted they could only theorize
as to the manner in which she was
slain.
One theory was that the "a
year-old woman, who had been
missing since Thursday, was fatal
ly beaten about the head, then
dumped from an automobile into
a shallow fill along the highway.
Another was that she was tossed
from the car and suffered the fatal
conclusion as she struck the
ground.
Miss Taylor's body was dis
covered at 10 am. yesterday by
Bernice DoWdy as he walked to
work. The section along Route
460, where the body was found,
is criss-crossed at its edges by
trees and logs, felled along the
right-of-way of a power line.
Shoes and Purse Missing.
The body was fully clothed ex-
cept that the shoes were gone.
Miss Taylor's pocketbook, esti-
mated to have contained SIS, also
was missing. There were bruises
about the woman's face and fore
head, notably in the region of
her eyes, but DR.. Grubb said the
rest of her head was free of
serious injury.
From investigating officers
came word that the girl may have
been slugged elsewhere and her
body dumped beside the road four
miles from this college town.
Deputy Sheriff F. H. Charlton
said that markings on the soft
earth seemed to indicate that two
persons had carried woman
from a car on the highway and
dropped her.
| Slightly more than two hours
before the body was found Miss
Taylor's mother had reported her
missing. She had not returned to
her home Thursday night after
leaving the VA office at 10 am.
Complained of Illness.
The mother Mrs. H. F. Taylor
told Roanoke city police she had
learned from friends that her
daughter left work at the VA
offices complaining of being ill.
She told fellow workers, her
mother said, she was going to a
doctor.
The mother was unable to find
any further word of her daughter
until police brought her to a
funeral home at Christiansburg,
near here, to make the identifica-
ton.
DR.. Grubb said it was his opin-
ion Miss Taylor's body had been
dumped along the highway Thurs
day night. Originally he had esti-
mated it had been there from "a
to SO hours.

Col. Fowler Decorated
By Philippine Envoy
BY the Associoted Press

ALTON, Va, Mar. 25.-Col. H.
C. Fowler, retired Army officer,
yesterday was awarded high
Philippine Army decoration for
gallantry on Bataan in 1912.
The Gold Cross Medal was pre-
sented by Philippine Ambassador
Joaquin M. Elizade, who said Col.

leased February 4, 1945. He was
cited specifically for leading a

covering action of the Philippine
1st Divisions withdrawal during q
Japanese sneak attack.
