Hailsform Hits
Horny Crops

Hail did considerable damage
in Horny county Sunday.
A thunderstorm that came a.
bout midday brought hailstones
said to have been about the size
of marbles to the Loris and
Daisy sections, though Loris was
on the edge of the area of dam
age.
School Superintendent M. p.
Campbell said Sunday night
that the railroad seemed TO be
the dividing line, there having
been heavy hail and leaves
beaten from trees in the vicin-
ity of the Presbyterian church
and almost no signs of hail a
mile west at the Baptist church.
A n area between Beulah
church and Shell showed signs
of tobacco being blown about
by wind but little if any hail
damage was evident. Damage
was heavy in the Hickory Grove
section. The hail area there ex-
tended nearly to Shell, to the
Francis Holiday farm, almost to
Pine Grove church and school,
and as far North as the farm OF
y. p. Anderson.
l. B. Chestnut, a retired teach
or and farmer at Hickory Grove
said he saw hailstones almost
as large as pullet eggs and that
lCrittS of hail where the pellets
had floatcd down against OBJ
.'structlonS AT the lower ends OF
crop rows were from six TO ~
inches deep.
He said that a rainguage in
his yard indicated % inches OF
rain fell with the hailstorm. but
he thought that hailStoncS had
prevented the guagc from re-
Icording all of the rair.
! Chestnut described the dam
age as terrific
The office OF Winston Vaupht
IAN insurance representative. re-
ported a run" OF claims for
hail damage. He said there was
hail damage from Oak Dale to
Daisy and Mt. Vernon. but that
he knew of none beyond Gore
town or west of LoriS.
4 check with the offices of
the Freeman and Blackburn in
ISurance agencies also indicated
IscN cral claims from the same
iarca had been filed.
Some observers have said that
damage to tobacco crops will
only retard growth. there having
been no example of total de-
Istruction of the plants.

Most of life seems to be filled
with rcpetition-that is the same
things happen everyday. The
rat" most of the Green Sea
students travel, is a process of
getting up, catchink the bus to
school, gong to the same classes
and back home on the bus. The
excitement of doing different
.yings is the best way of break
ing the monotony OF REPETITION.
Two events have taken place
this week at Green Sea which
have aroused the students inter-
cSts above normal. The first
event was the annual F. F. A.
Patterson Banquet, which was
held on Tuesday, May Is. 1856
