ment is embarking on an exhaustion
program and is conducting a drive
for additional members which will
continue TO the next two months,

airy has become an excellent train
ing ground for candidates to fill
vacancies on the regular Fire De-
partment.
During the winter the auxiliary
meets once monthly. on the sec
ond Tuesday of each month. Dur
ing the warmer months, additional
drill periods are staged from time
to time

training for future work with the
Dunn Department.

the Dunn Fire Department. Any
young men anxious to join the or
ganization are urged to get in

Mrs. Swain Speak

Members of the Junior WonanS
Club heard most informative
talk by Mrs. Grace Swain, local
Red Cross worker when they met
at the Armory in Dunn last night
for their monthly meeting.
Miss Libby Rae Cromartie who
was in charge of the program in
troduced Mrs. Swain. The speakers
theme for the evening was the
need for a welfare worker in Dunn.
She emphasized that most people
thought her whole job was just in
terviewing military men and their
wives. She stated that the mill
tary was only a small part of her
Job and that she came in contact
daily with needy families that
needed help badly.
Mrs. Swain said there should be
some better way of handling
Christmas donations and that they
should be distributed through some
organization instead of individuals
as the case hapepned so much that
the donations went to some family
that didn't need it as badly as
others.
Mrs. Ed Galloway. secretary of
the club read the minute of the
last meeting and the treasurer
gave a report on the clubs fin

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
The most significant changes in
the rear are found in the tail
lights and trunk lid handles. The
tail lights, which appear to be in
tegral parts of the rear tenders
rather than "added-on" assemb-
lies. give the effect of extending
the sweep of the finders and thus
corresponding increase in body
length. Their design, however, does
not sacrifice any of the increased
area of illumination which proved
so popular on the 81 models.
Trunk lid handles incorporate new
styling on all but the lowest price

Heat resisting, glare-reducing
glass for windshields, side and rear

at extra cost. Rear view visibility
on convertibles has been greatly
increased by enlarging the rear

inches.
ELEGANT INTERIOR
Upholstery and trim suggest
drawing room elegance. Seats are
particularly outstanding in COM

Button-tufted seat cushions are
standard on the State Commander

This cute little story comes
from Stavanger, Norway:
Every year a flock of wild
ducks gather in a little lake in
a park in the center of town but
for the sake of security mama
duck in early spring moves out
to an island in the ford and
matches her ducklings. When the
little ones are big enough, mama
Cuck leads them in to the water
and swims to town. This happens
every year and has become quite
an occasion. When Mrs. DUCK
lands with her brood in Stav-
anger, she's met by one or two
sturdy police officers, who clear
the streets for her and her little
ones, and parades up thru town
to the little lake in the park. On
every street crossing all traffic is
halted when mama and her darl-
! ings cross, and hundreds of
spectators cheer the family on
its way Needless to say, no harm
ever befell mama ducks and her
offspring in Stavanger from any
human hands.

Second District of Sons of Nor
way and the Daughters of Nor
way on the Pacific Coast, will
convene in Everett, Wash.
AS far as the Sons are con-
cerned there will be close to 200
delegates from 81 lodges and the
Daughters will meet with approx
mately 90 delegates from II LODI
ges. The combined membership
of the two Orders are about 49,
GOO with the bulk of the members
in the State of Washington.
The Second District of the Sons
Of Norway is by far the largest
of the five within the Order, in
fact it has grown so big that it
has become cumbersome. With
lodges spread all along the coast
from Anchorage, Alaska to San
Diego, Calf. it has been a ire
rnendous job to administer and
also very costly to operate espe-
cially around convention time. 1t
now looks like the District will be
divided, with California forming
their own (the 6th) district with
approximately $500 members in
20 lodges.
Of course we "northerners"
hate to see California break away
but it will undoubtedly prove to
be for the best of the Order. The
lodges in California are growing
steadily and several new lodges
have been organized the last two
or three years. From an admins
trative point of view it will be
lots easier to operate. But we
are going to miss the southern
ers" at our conventions in the
future. Some of our best men,
ters reside in California and it
has always been a pleasure to
convene with them.
We will look forward to a close
cooperation in the future and
perhaps have the pleasure from
time to time of visiting each
other.
Best of luck to the Californians
N their new District.
