increased to 80. That was the be-
ginning of Lockhart Gaddy's
Wild Goose Refuge. Now any,
where from five to seven thous-
and geese can be seen at this
outstanding Wild Goose Refuge.
The pond, originally two acres,
has been increased to four acres
to accommodate the increasing
number of geese that arrive each
year. The pond is surrounded on
three sides by towering pines
intermingled with oaks, red
naples and sweet gums.
The Refuge is open to the pub.
! lie seven days a week from Octo
Der list to April list. There is a
small admission charge of TWEEN
i ty-five cents to help defray the
cost of feeding the geese which
eat about six bushels of corn a
day on normal days. During a
severe snow period they require
about "a bushels a day.
1t is almost unbelievable to
stand on the bank of the pond
and observe the wild Canada
geese at such close range. On
a cloudy day the geese are more
active, as they are continually
coming and going. 1t is an un-
forgetable sight to watch a
flight of seventy-five geese land
on a crowded pond.
On bright sunny days the
geese usually go out at dawn to
feed and return to the pond be-
fore noon. After returning many
are swimming, feeding, and
keeping up constant chatter of
conversation, while others tuck
their heads down and nap.
Lockhart and Hazel can always
be found at their Wild Goose Re
fuge, where each year thousands
of visitors listen to them relatc
the experiences they have had
with their feathered friends.
Last year visitors from q
states and II foreign countricc
registered ct the Refuge.
For The past II years now The
GaGdvs have devoted all Of thcir
time 10 the preservation of V''i2-
life and each year thew look for,
ward to tho arrival. Of tho gees"

Garden Time

While you were out in the
woods looking for Christmas
greens and berries, you probably
noticed that many of the holly
trees had no berries at all and
| if you will observe them again
you may find that they never
will have berries.
The American holly is a de
cidous plant-that is it has male
flowers on one plant and female
flowers on another plant. There
fore, only the female plant will
have berries The same is true
of persimmons and most variet
les of Muscadine grapes.
Also you will find that some
holly plants have better and larg
er berries and leaves than others
Where possible the better strains
should be selected for planting
or propagation. Holly may be
propagated by means of cuttings
treated with rootone and placed
in a mixture of half send and
half peat. They are very difficult
to root.
The American holly is classed
as a tree and not a shrub. There
fore, it should be planted where
it will have plenty of room to
grow. I have seen holly trees
with a trunk diameter of more
than Is inches. However, they
are very slow growing and are
very often used as shrubs.
Other species of holly which
make excellent evergreen shrubs
in most of North Carolina are
Chinese holly, English holly, Jap
anese holly, and for Eastern
North Carolina, Jaupon and gall
berry. The Japanese hollies (IleS
crenata sp.) do not have red Der
ries but are valuable for their
beautiful foliage and low grow
ing, bushy form.
The deciduous hollies Chose
that lose their leaves in winter
are native in all sections of the
State and are valued for theil
pretty red berries during the
winter season.

 April 25 and 25

On the 25th and 26th of April the Junior Class will present Glenn Hughes thrilling comedy myst-ry entitled Midnight It is a play of thrills, chills, re- nance and laughter, and the suspense of not knowing just what is going to happen next will keep you on the edge of your seat during the greater part of the evening.
 Creepy nois $, eerie lights and women s screams are only few of the thrills you will eX periencc when you see Mid night" Of course you will be cXcltcd-but when you expect the worst you will start laughing at some of the rib tickling com cdy which comes along just at the right mCncn.. Thrills one moment, com c.E ihe next, TO- nance the next, all leads to an unexpected conclusion.
 Much time, Wolk and careful planning have resulted in what Is hoped to be one of the best plays ever produced her. The play itself needed many rehears- als, as the action is rapid, char actcI ,zat>oas all vastly different.
 The Juniors positively guar antce that all thos who see Midnight will feel better for an evening we'll spent amidst thrills, chills, shudders, laugh ter. and love.
