If you intend to plant straw
berries this fall it should be done
soon. You may have difficulty
obtaining plants this early but
plants set now will become esta-
blished and give you better
plants and a better crop next
spring than plants set later.
BY fall planting you get berries
only from plants you set. They
will not make runner plants. For
Eastern and Piedmont North
Carolina use the Massey variety.
1t has been very satisfactory dur
ing the past few years. Do not
plant everbearing varieties ex-
cept in the mountain areas. They
have not been generally satisfac-
tory in North Carolina.
If you have an established
strawberry bed and have not fer
tilted the plants this fall, do so
at once. Use any good garden fer

"It started like this" said Miss
Cutrell. Dear Jane: have been
thinking a long time about writ
ing you and telling you how
wrong you were about Mrs.
Blank, as you told me before I
came here. She is a sweet wo-
man, and I never hear her gossip
about anybody, and I know SHE
never goes into MY things nor
reads my letters. To the contrary
also, not everybody in the COM
munity dislikes her. She has her
friends, and I have never heard
more than a dozen people knock

course wouldn't write this to
anyone but you, and I know you
won't mention it.

she wanted to, and question
marks stuck out over her face

asked me did I ever know any

that community. But I didn't
know a thing, and I never had

Miss Cayenne Collins said her
worst problem was the village
shiek, who thought he was Gods
gift to women. He was usually
some relative of the landlady,
and thought he could make him
self at home. He used to come
around when everybody else was
gone, and show off. Then he'd 60
down the road and leave the i'm
preston he was having a high
old time with the new teacher.
Miss Leghorn Lewis got up and
said it was all very interesting,
but she'd have to 60, but she
had a few recollections she'd re-
cite sometime. In leaving, she
added that she thought the worst
thing a teacher had to contend
with was the gay old married
committeeman who was trying to
get the teacher out for a ride at
night.

B. Umstead has personally ano
officially extended an invitation
for all North Carolinians and
visitors from other states to par
ticipate in the 1858 N. c. State
Fair to be held here October 20.
"a. 'We are looking forward this
year to the most colorful, enter
tanning, educational and useful
State Fair in history" the Gov
ernor declared.
This will be the first State Fair

ministration, but he was a prom
inent figure on the Fairgrounds
last year as he escorted his little
daughter on the rides and around
the exhibit halls. The Governor
will have the leading role in the
dedication of the new State Fair
Arena at IL o'clock noon on the
opening day of the Fair.
In his invitation to enjoy the
1858 Fair, the chief executive
said: Il commend it to you as a
great exposition, worthy of your
interest and attendance. Cele-
brating this year its Tooth birth
day (the first N. c. State Fair
was held October 1921, 1859,
the Fair offers opportunities for
entertainment, relaxation, educa-
ton and broadening of the Gull
tural outlook. With the compile
ton and full use this year of the
new State Fair Arena, the judg-
ing and exhibition facilities will
be unexcelled any,

CATFISH CORNER
TEACHERS SPILL
STORY OF WOES
It's Not Always A Bed OF
Roses For The New Teach
er When She Arrives
BY MISS PINKIE PERRY

The Catfish Corner teachers
meeting Tuesday night went as
tray from its regular business or
a subject seldom discussed il
public, namely, the trials and tri.
bulations imposed on a teacher
that have nothing to do with he1
duties in school.
Mrs. Corridor Carter, an ex-
teacher who, like so many others
came to Catfish Corner to teach,
and get a husband, and who has
seldom left since, started it off
by telling the teachers what a
bed of roses they now have as
compared with the lot of the
teacher in her day.
when I came to Catfish Cor
ner, had to teach a Sunday
school class, or I wouldn't have
been allowed to remain" she
said. 81 also had to get up plays
for the benefit of the church, and
to be active in ice-cream socials
and box parties to raise money
for the school"
Maybe you don't think we
have to put up with a lot" said
Miss Furniss Foster, one of the
newer teachers. "Why as soon as
I landed here, everyone I met
started off by telling me no
teacher ever gets away from Cat
fish Corner without a husband,
l heard it morning, noon and
night, and three times a day at
the table. I got so sick and tired
of being told about how many
teachers had come and got mar
ried that I thought I'd jump out
of my skim
Mrs. Goralog Gibbs who used
to teach at Gar Creek said: "The
worst thing I had to contend with
was the way they used to make
the teachers board at the home
of some member of the school
committee. 1t just seemed there
were a lot of selfish and ignor-
ant men always trying to get on
the committee, so they could get
the teachers to board in their

Living Room Can Be Made Easier to Keep Clean
By Betty Lenohon

One might sometimes wish the
living room could be furnished
like the kitchen-in shiny mate
rials that come clean with the
swish Of a mop or soapy sponge.
Actually, with the materials
available today. this isn't such a
fantastic ambition. Without. of
course, the use of tile, chrome
and porcelain. But with a little
thought one can provide the hv-
ing room with an all-Star team
Of equally washable furnishings
and fabrics.
Consider, for example, what
plastic -laminated furniture could
do-in both styling and easy up
keep. Traditional woods. treated
with vinyl plastic, retain all the
beauty of traditional woods-yet
thrive on the breeze-easy upkeep
of plastic.
Soap-and-water washing is all
that is needed to keep the tops
of tables and cabinet pieces glow
ing and gracious. And now. in
addition. one furniture designer
has come up with an extra con-
venience--drawers that can be
washed quickly and easily. This
designer has introduced drawers
made of nodded plastic into a
new group of occasional pieces.
They are highly decorative in
black. contrasting dramatically
with the ash blond of the furni-
ture.
They are light in weight, yet
sturdy and unlikely to swell or
bind. Being nodded in one piece,
they contain no grime-collecting
seams, and corners are rounded
for easy busting. They are easy
to wash. of course, either by
sponging with soap and water OF
right in the kitchen sink.
Further style-conscious wash
ability can be achieved with
plastic upholstery fabrics. These
abound in a great variety of pat
terms and colors.
Curtains in filmy, no-iron
plastic and glaSs-type fabrics
whisk through the suds and, il
smoothed and rehung while still
damp, need little if any ironing
Some of these draperies can be
washed and back in place in
less than 10 minutes. Or any
of a variety of crisp cottons,
subtle rayons, or muted linens
can be down and up again in
halt a day.
Luxurious wall-to-wall car
peting-it it is cotton or one of
the new synthetic f1bers-comes
clean easily when shampooed
with "dry" soapsuds, obtained by
adding soap to a very little water
and beating stiff with an egg
beater.
A little care in buying paint
or wallpaper gives a room a
background that can be cleaned
with soap and water. And with
few pertinent questions when
buying accessories one will find
lamps. lamp shades, window
shades and throw cushions that
can be easily washed.
A careful eye on instability
produces a living room that will,
actually. come clean and stay
clean almost as easily as tile
and-chrome kitchen.
