COMMISSIONERS SYMPATHETIC
TOWARD HOSPITAL EXPANSION

Citizens interested IN the el-
largement of Columbus County
Hospital were advised Monday
that the Board Of County Com
missioners were sympathetic to
the need for additional facilities
and that the commissioners
would go along if it were found
desirable to call and election to
provide funds through a vote OF
the peope.
Acting after they had heard the
hospital problem presented by
various citizens, the commission
cls voted to leave the decision on
the question of an election in the
hands of the hospital building
committee and its advisory
board.
If it deemed advisable to ask
the public to approve the propos,
al. the commissioners will au
thorize the election and place the
issue on ballot to be voted or
at the general election in Nov
cmbCr.
The need for additional facili-
ties was presented under the oil,
rection of c. l.. Tate, vice chair
man of the Board of Trustees Oh
Columbus County Hospital.
Among those who voiced an
opinion were DR.. w. E. Miller
chief of staff at the hospital;
Miss Myrtle Mccarthy, superin
tcndcnt of the local institution;
w. A. Williams, mayor of Tabor
City; Mrs. Paul Cook. president
of the Chadbourn Business and
Professional Women's Club; G.
M. Love, city councilman OF
Whiteville; and J. p. Quinerly.
agricultural leader.
Miss McGarity's statement was
the most pointed in outlining
the need for charging the hospi-
tai. She said there was no place
for colored children and that
many patients, both white and
colored. had to be turned away
because of the inadequacy OF
space. In emergencies, she said
it had been found necessary to
request the discharge of almost
well' patients to make room for
the new patient.
The kitchen, Miss Mccarthy
told the commissioners at the
hearing, is barely adequate for
64-bed capacity it is trying to
meet. She said the facilities for
maternity patients were overtaX-
d and presented a serious
problem.
Viz Chairman Tate reviewed
Iricfly some of the facts regard
ing the crowded conditions and
! declared that members of the
Board o. Trustees were prepared
to let nothing stand in the way
CT securing a new wing. He sug.
gestcd that if it would help fol
the percSent trustees to surrend-
-. their contract, they were pre-
pared to get out immediately.
The commissioners, however,
took no note of the boards offer
to resign and there was no in
dication that there is any seltt.
ment in favor of such action.

City Tags Must
Be On Automobile

Chief Of Police L. r. Watson
this week asked all Tabor City
citizens with town license tags
on their cars to be sure and take
them off when they traded cars
and put the tag on their new
automobile. The chief enpha-
sized that it is just as much
against the law to fail to have the
tag on the car as it was not to
buy the tag at all.
Some persons have traded
cars, left their city tags on the
cars that were traded in and
failed to have a tag on the car
they bought. Mr.. Watson has
pointed out that the tag must be
transferred to the new car Oh
else the motorist is still violating
the law.

In the face of today'S record

CT the CT Bill.
A 4-page pamphlet. which in
cludcs a letter signed by Admin

Intended as guide for veter-

The VA guaranty, which pro-
tcctS the lender against loss. en-
courageS him to make the loan
at a very low interest rate and
with only a small or no down
payment" Gray'S letter states.
But if YOU fail to make the pay
mentS YOU agree to make. the
VA must pay the loss to the lend
or. and the amount paid by VA
must be repaid by you. Any COM
penSation or pension to which
YOU may be entitled could be
withheld in whole or in part until
such debt is satisfied"
The Veterans Administrator al
so warned the veteran against
taking on an obligation too heavy
for him to carry. In addition to
the monthly payments of inter
est and principal, he pointed out
that the veteran homeowner also
must meet the cost of real estate
taxes. insurance. repairs. heat.

Advising strongly against rush
inc into what may prove to be
an ill-adviSed purchase. Gray re-
minded veterans that they have
until July %. 1857. to use their
right to d guaranteed loan.
The pamphlet contains a de
tailed check list of points to be
considered in buying a home. in

The Country Press Says:

MANNHEIM. PA. SENTINEL:
"At Pendleton, Oregon, on May
10. 1850. the President declared
that the American family's an
nual income could be raised to at
least $4,000 by 1860 if the whole
country tried.
But the S64 question is what
will the dollar be worth in 1861!
How much milk, potatoes OF
bread will the dollar buy when
the minimum income is S4,OOO!
Lots of money has its appeal,

CHARM
By LOU SWARTZE

CHARM AT ANY AGE: A
recent article on a woman can be
charming at so, brought many
questions to my desk-why so; so
it is surely well to state that
CHARM is for all--at any age
from the teen-agers on because
age has nothing to do with
beauty or charm. Remember that
beauty is the outward expression
of the inner soul and charm is
knowing how to do the right
thing at the right time and maxi
ing all those around you feel at
ease. And you must surely use
those assets which add to charm
or really added together, make
one charming--such as cleanli-
ness, health, your choice of ward
robe, correct hair-styling and
makeup, poise and posture, your
speech and conversation, and
every day etiquette.
The wise person grows in age
gracefully and knows how to
serve among or with those who
have youth in such way that
she is forever useful and alert so
that there is no time to discuss
what we call old age. The trend
today toward the preserving the

personalities of those who are

Program among them is most i'm
teresting, and one Of the inter-
esting TV programs, Life Begins
at &c." seems a good thing also.
Worthwhile activity and service
always makes way for CHARM,
old or young. So let us not make
q ''big-aboo" about woman Of
so or so or over can have charm;
but let us feel and know that any
woman can have CHARM.
Our own First Lady-Dr. Mary
Mcleod Bethune, is indeed true
example of a woman who has
charm and all the assets that any
woman might like to work to-
ward. She has always been my
ideal and in my many travels |
have heard many young women
say the same thing.
Why not select for yourself to-
day an ideal woman whose charm
shines forth like a morning star,
and follow a pattern of life which
will give you what you want or
enjoy most?

tuce. AS you plan your garden
make bed of parsley that you
may have it fresh daily. One
need not expend much money for
beauty aids if one would give a

to this matter. Parsley brings
