War! War against insects, disease
and this and that How about war with
the wind? Admittedly you can't carry
out an offensive operation. but defen-
siveIy you can do lot.
A war college, for planning scien-
tific defense against wind is located
at Manhattan, Kansas. Scientists of
U.SDA. and the Kansas Experiment
Station are obtaining valuable informa-
ton on different types of barriers by
using wind tunnels. Toy-size farmsteads
with different arrangements of shelter
belts and other barriers are subjected
to winds ranging from breeze to a
gale. presume that includes the Mon
tana kind.
What have they found out? To be-
gin with, a well designed shelterbelt of
trees will catch about 31z times as
much snow as the best arrangement
of snow fences. which was four fences
spaced at distances IL times their
height. In the leafy season. a SO-foot
high shelterbelt reduces the wind veloc-
ity three feet above the ground by half,
for distance IA times the maximum
height of the Shelterbelt. In the winter
the effectiveness extends only eight
times maximum tree height.
So what? Tree planting time is over.
For 1855 sure, but now is the time to
start for 1856. 1t takes too long to
grow shelterbelt to do it on trial
and-error basis. First thing, you need
to do is to summer fallow the site and
be sure you make it large enough
don't figure less than 5 rows. Next,
be sure you get the right kind of trees.
For assistance on planning your shell
terbelt and ordering trees contact your
local Soil Conservation District techni-
clan or county agent. They'll be glad
to help you.
Remember. Trees can change
farm from just a place to live into
home

For five years he carried on
his missionary work in that
country and then like pioneers
of early North American days,
he wanted to move into areas
with an even greater need for
mission workers.
Goes TO Paraguay
The Baptist convention then
sent him into Paraguay, South
America where he has been for
more than ten years.
Paraguay, just across the riv-
er from Argenetina, is a small
country roughly four times the
size Of South Carolina. One
small railroad leads into the
country and the bulk of the i'm
ports to Paraguay must come a
1000 miles up the river.
With this remoteness to the

thing to suddenly become
scarce. Gasoline, iron, cement,

In Merchandise

Police were still searching to-
day for thieves who broke
locks on two trucks at James c.
Cox Wholesale Co. sometime
Friday morning and removed
approximately $3.50 worth of

found that someone had lamp
cred with his truck.
Chief of Police II. +. EppS
said that thieves removed locks
i.,n two trucks parked at the

Green Sea Road and stole a
large quantity of wrist watches,
b. acelets, cigarette lighters,
flashlights, socks, pocket knives,
iandy and sigars.

YOUTH OF IL WITH LONG RECORD

The judge moved nearer TO
the witness stand as the IT.
year-old boy told the jury, in a
sc1t voice, how the misunder-
came about.
He appeared frightened. Just
like a first offender would act.
II was the usual-he had tri-
ed on the jacket then stashed il
under his arm and walked away.
mo, the owner didn't know
Id taken it," he admitted to
Solicitor John Burney. In the
same breath, he told him he
hadn't stolen the jacket.
Superior Court Judge Ray
mond B. Mallard listened in
tently as the boy changed his
plea to guilty" His court re-
cord belied his frightened APP
pearance. He was a three time
loser. Larceny convictions COW
cred his youthful crime record.
Judge Mallard sentenced him
to ID months. The stolen jacket
had been worth nine dollars.
1t was just another of the
many cases heard by Judge NAL

One Way Street Will Be Observed
To Relieve Congesied Traffic

a move to regulate and ex-
pcdeite the flow of traffic in the
business district was underway
this week as town officials out
lined a plan for onC-way traffic.
Chief of Police II. f. Epps
said this morning that signs
were being prepared 10 design
ate one way traffic on West
Railroad Street. from Fifth TO
Third Street. Traffic will travel
with parking permit
ted on the left side of West Rail-
read Street facing south.
Once the signs are erected
the one-way traffic will be OBJ
served.
A move TO alleviate congeSted
conditions on Fifth Street calls
for elimination of all double
parking. Motorists are urged TO
rark on the proper side of the
street.
Truck loading and unloading
zones will be observed everyday
except Saturday and Sunday.

Yet a million people live in
this inland nation and scratch
out a living in agriculture, cattle
raising, meat canning and a few
scattered cotton mills. Cotton
and tobacco are the principle
crops.
Military Rule
A military dictatorship con-
trolls the country. Power among
leaders in the armed forces de-
termines the leadership of the
nation. Technically the people
cast their ballot for the ruler
but only one candidates name
appears on the ballot for the Of
flee. And just 10 make the stu
alton even more ironical, every
citizen must vote or else lose his
citizenship rights.
Members of opposing parties
who work underground in most
cases in Paraguay are forced to
leave the country on election
day. Only leaders of the major
ity party who have their candi-
dates name on the ballot may
even be seen in Paraguay dur
ing the election.

Carp Find Entrance
Hazardous AT Lake

German carp found the en-
trance to Lake Tabor a difficult
matter this week as they found
cred on the rocks in an effort to
move up the spillway.
A. J. Allen, temporary caro-
taker at Lake Tabor. caught an
eight-pounder as it attempted to
bounce its way into the lake.
Fishermen flocked to the lake
TO watch large schools of carp
swimming around in the race.
Some estimated the size of the
fish from eight to "a pounds.
Those who tried their luck in
the lake last week were reward
ed with excellent catches. Josh
Soles, member of the Lake Tabor
board of directors, said this
morning he had been catching
trout weighing from one to three
pounds.
One improvement at the Lake
brought by the heavy downpour
of rain during the past two weeks
has been a move to place tile
under the road leading to the
Lake.
At times during the past week
it has been almost impossible
due to the heavy mire.
Local citizens donated $50 for
the purchase of the tile.
Other road Improvements are
tentatively scheduled by the
directors.

Two Flyers Escape Injury
As Airp|une Crashes Here

Two New Orleans businessmen
narrowly escaped death last
night at GAS o'clock when their
Stinson Voyager plane clipped
several power lines at the Tabor
City Lumber Company and crash
ed into a nearby hay field.
]. A. Wilson, pilot of the small
plane, said he was enroute to
Fayetteville from Alexandria,
Louisiana when instrume t
trouble developed and he elected
to land in the open field. Neither
Wilson or his passeger, R. Frye,
received any injuries.
Considerable damage was done
to the plane when it flipped into
a ditch at the edge Of the field.
Two large stacks of lumber
were ignited by the broken power
lines and firemen were forced
to stand by for more than an
hour waiting for an REA SER
vice man to cut the broken lines.
A drizzling rain helped to pre-
vent the fire from spreading.
After Don Holmes, Carolina
Power and Light Company SER
vice man, arrived at the scene
and cut the lines, firemen battled
the wind-swept blaze for more
than an hour.

Tabor City, is back in the Unit
ed States for a year and has
recently spoke to groups in this
section.
Sydney l.. Goldfinch is a man
with a purpose and he is de-
termined to fill that purpose re-
vOlved.
Long ago he made his decision
TO serve God and mankind as q
Baptist Missionary and for the
past l6 years ne has worked at
that calling with enthusiasm re-
gardlcss of the obstacles. And
the obstacles have been numer-
Gus.
Sent TO South America TO car
ry the word Of God to an I'M
Christian nation, Rev. Gold
finch must have felt like minist-
ers of Biblical times who walk
ed from city to city to preach
10 the unbelievcrs. You see.
Rev. Goldfinch went into a
country not great deal ad-
vanced in civilization from that
of Christ's day.
The 44-year-old Missionary,
was born on Thanksgiving in
1911. He graduated from Con-
way high school, Columbia Bible
College, Columbia. S. c., Wheat
on College, Wheaton, ILL.,, and
the Baptist Theological Semin-
airy in Louisville, Ky. He then
served pastorates at Douglas
and Sylvania, Ga.
But the young pastor was not
satisfied. He felt the prodding
to enter the mission field and
in 1889 he did Just that.
Under the suspices OF the
Southern Baptist Convention,
Rev. Goldfinch was sent to IRA
quay, South America, There he
found himself surrounded by a
native people speaking a differ
ent language. His wife and boy
who accompanied him found
themselves in q new world
without relatives and with few
friends.
