"Sofe Driving
Day" Supported
By All Schools

RALEIGH ESD Day"-"Safe
Driving Day"-was hailed today by
Charles F. Carroll, State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction, as
"a real opportunity for our schools
to show that youth can contribute
to community traffic safety"
SD Day" is Wednesday, De-
cember Is. 1t is sponsored by the
Presidents Action Committee for
Traffic Safety in cooperation with
all public officials and various ma
tional organizations interested in
traffic accident prevention. as a
demonstration that traffic acci-'
dents can be eliminated if people
in every community are willing to
make the effort.
Carroll said: "We believe that
our children do pretty good job
as pedestrians. especially on their
way to and from school each day.
Most teachers devote time to the
traffic safety problem, and help
children develop safe practices for
walking and riding bicycles.
MANY of our schools have
had safety patrols for years, and
patrol experience Is an impOr-
tant factor in helping thousands
of youngsters appreciate the
dangers of today's traffic. Our
school bus drivers, too, have an
enviable record, but are always
alert to improve it still further.
Through driver education pro-
grams in many of the high schools.
more and more of our young peo-
Pile are learning how to operate
cars safely and courteously. They,
too. have a real opportunity to see
that the goal of the December
18th SD Day is achieved in their
communities.
II commend SD Day to all
school officials in North Carolina
and urge them to support it with
appropriate educational activities.
The values of we'll planned activi-
ties in the schools will extend far
beyond the "a hours of SD Day,
and will help our State to con-
serve its richest source-our chill
dren and youth"

Posture Affects The Way
You Look Work And Feel

Posture affects the way you look,
work and feel, agree State Col
lege extension specialists.
Just what is 1t about a person
that makes YOU turn around to
take another look? According to
Virginia Wilson extension nutri-
zionist, you don't have to have
beautiful, naturally curly hair or
Zig brown eyes to be considered
attractive. "But you do have to
have good posture" she says.
Mamie Wl,isnant, State College
home management specialist, says
that ust,ess, can't-lift-another-
finger feeling may stem from a
source as apparently simple as
poor posture
And Julia McIver, extension
specials. in textiles and clothing,
adds that the effects of an ex-
pensive tailor made suit are lost
on the women with poor posture.

100000 Children
Will Be Burned By
LIQUIDS Next 5 Mos.

More than 100000 youngsters
4 years and under - will be pain
fully burned by hot liquids be-
tween now and the first of May.
In releasing this figure. the In
stitute For Safer Living of the
American Mutual Liability InSur-
ance Company warns that all par
ents with young children should
be especially careful during the
months of more congeSted indoor
living.
Overturned pans of soups and
stews, pots and cups of hot coffee
and tea rank as first offenders in
this wholesale scalding of tiny
tots. According to the Institute In
juries from these sources usually
serious and painful. often result
in permanent injury Boiling wa
ter, a household necessity, is per-
haps the constant source of child
burns throughout the year.
The following protective meas
ures are recommended to help
guard your children (and YOURSELF
against home scalds:
Keep children out of the kit
chen while cooking or handling
hot liquids.
Place pot and pan handles
turned inwards from stoves edge.
Place coffee, tea pots, cups
and saucers well in on the table.
Water causes grease to spat-
ter. Dry food thoroughly before
frying.
Replace or tighten utensil
handles as soon as they become
defective.
DO not leave scrub pals of hot
water unattended when children
are around.
Always check temperature Of
bath water before allowing chill
dren to get into tub
Supervision is important at
bathtime, not only to prevent
drowning. but so that youngsters
cannot accidently turn on the hot
water faucet and get scalded.
Let foresight and common sense
handling of hot liquids be your
watchword when small children
are around.

THE UNSUNG HEROES .
Pity The Poor Fireman! He
Gets Blamed For Everything

led. Note. A fireman's life
isn't an easy one, and they often
are hampered by irritations and
lack of cooperation and under
standing from the public. With
the busy days of Christmas sea-
son at hand, the following from
The Hose & Nozzle, N. G. Fire
mems weekly newspaper, per-
hapS is descriptive of Lincoln
ton and other towns. 1t was re-
ceived by Charlotte's Fire Chief
Donald Charles, and most likely
written by a fireman, for as the
Hoze G. Nozzle Ed. said, mo one
else could understand or de-
scribe the situation SO well.")
When the fire trucks are de-
layed 40 seconds in traffic, people
say: 1T took them 20 minutes to
get here!"
When the truck races at 40
miles per hour it's Look at those
reckless fools!"
When four men struggle with
an eight-man ladder: "They don't
even know how to raise ladder! "
When firemen open windows and
doors for ventilation to reduce
heat in fighting fire: Look at
the wrecking crew."
When they open walls or floors
to get at the blaze: "There goes
the axe squad"

If the chief stands back where

Some Chickens Impaired
Bv IncurobIe Blindness

Aside from colds and roup,
chickens may have definite eye
troubles, according to R. 8. Dear
styne, head of poultry science at
State College which impair their
usefulness and often render them
uneconomical.
These troubles include total or
partial blindness or the disease
known as ocular leucosiS. All OF
the factors causing blindness in
chickens are not known. Ocular
leucosis is one of the five types OF
this disease which is probably
caused by virus.
A tabulation of blindness and
leucosis taken from the autopsy
sheets of the poultry diagnostic
laboratory at State College shows
that in birds through 10 weeks OF
age there were 16 instances among
11,O23 birds which had these trou-
bles. In range stock birds, 134 OF
3.441 birds send in had blindness
or leucosis, and in S,948 adults
there were $50 birds showing eth
er of these troubles.
This does not indicate the ex-
tent of eye troubles in the entire
poultry population of the state but
merely that of birds sent IN for
laboratory examination, Dearstyne
says.
att seems advisable that poul-
trymen in routine examination OF
birds should carefully examine the
ewes. Should any bird show defin-
ite indication of any eye abnormal
ity it should be promptly culled as
apparently there is little chance
of recovery" according to Dear
StVne

FIue Cured Tobacco
Allotment Announced

North Carolina farmers will be
allotted 664.495 acres for the pro-
duction of flue-cured tobacco in
1855. Fred r. Keith. chairman of
the State Agricultural Stabiliza-
ton, announced this week.
Since this years allotment was
695,995 acres. this means that each
farms allotment for 1855 will be
five per cent less next year. Al
though North Cardinals allotment
exceeds that of all other flue- cured
tobacco producing states combined,
Tar Heel farmers will still have the
lowest tobacco allotments since
1850.
This cut in flue-cured tobacco
acreage allotments was brought
about by decline in domestic con-
sumption of cigarette tobacco &C
cording to Keith. "There just
weren't as many cigarettes smoked
this year."
The flue-cured tobacco carryov-
er into 1855 will be the highest on
record 1,915 million pounds.
Domestic usage of flue-cured to-
bacco through June 80 of this year
totaled 778 million pounds, about
six per cent less than last year.
Keith added that exports this year
were 431 million pounds.
Proclamation of marketing quo
tas on the 1855 crop of flue-cured
tobacco will not call for a grower
referendum on tobacco. Tobacco
growers in this state in 1852 voted
98 per cent in favor of quotas on
tobacco for the three year period,
1953-1955.
Keith reports that state and
county ASC committees are now
working on breaking down this
state allotment to individual farms
and that farm allotments will go
out around the first Of the year.
