WATCH OUT FOR CHILDREN
WHO COME OUT IN SPRING

Raleigh-"Children, like flowers,
come out in the Spring"
With those words, Assistant
Motor Vehicles Commissioner Joe
w. Garrett spoke this week on the
year round Importance of child
safety.
"But children are not like flow
ers in one respect" he said. "Chil-
dren don't stay put. In fact, the
only way drivers can really play
it safe is always to expect the un-
expected from youngsters"
Garrett, father of a blossoming
little girl himself, reminded Tar
Heel motorists that with the COM
ing of Springtime children will en-
gage in more outdoor activities.
young folks are always I'M
predictable," he said, "But at this
time of year, when vacation from
school is just around the corner,
they represent even a greater
hazard"
He especially warned motorists
to be on the alert for children,
either on foot or on a bicycle, tri-
cycle or other vehicle, suddenly
darting into the roadway from in
tersections, from behind parked
cars or at intersections.
Garrett listed four suggestions
for motorists to put into practice
in the months Immediately ahead.
l. Be on the alert in zones
where children might naturally be
expected. Residential areas, school
zones, playground areas, athletic
fields, vacant lots-there are po-
tential danger spots.
2. Watch carefully for children
on tricycles, roller skates, wagons,
scooters, bicycles. Unpredictable on
foot, children are even more I'M
practicable on wheels.
8. Give the child a "brake"-
and resist the temptation to honk
your horn. A sudden blast from
an automobile horn can throw a
child already in danger into a
panic.
A. Remember every minute you
are driving, especially where chill
dren may be found-always ex-
pect the unexpected from children.

FOREIGN AID-Administration
circles in Washington urge huge
appropriations for Foreign Aid, in
order to maintain the nations
which subscribe to a "free world"
1t has reached the stage where all
nations require loans or gifts from
Uncle Sam, that we may have
their good will which cools off
when aid diminishes. The Presi-
dent has asked Congress for near
ly five billion dollars for this pro-
gram. Senator Byrd is urging Con-
gress to cut the Administration
spending by $3,20O,000,O0O. He
says President Eisenhower's. re-
quest for an increase of over three
billion dollars is inexcusable.

MANTEO RED SKINS OPEN
AGAINST YELLOWJACKETS

The Manteo High School baseball
team will open this years sched-
ule on Friday, March 80 against
the Elizabeth City Yellowjackets
at Elizabeth City.
Manteo Principal R. H. Stone
recently released the 1856 schedule
and it is as follows: March 80,
Elizabeth City; April 8, Bear
Grass; April 6, Bear Grass;
April 10, Weeksville*; April 13,
Central"; April II, Griggs; April
20, Moyock"; April "a, Camden;
April 81, Weeksville; May 1, Cen
trial; May a, Griggs*; May 8,
Moyock; May IL, Camden.
(*Denotes Home Games)
The Manteo boys, coached by
Wayland Fry and Adrian Ayers,
have had little opportunity for
outdoor practice to date because
of the inclement weather. Most
practice sessions have been held
in the gymnasium. The coaches
feel, however, that the boys will
be in fair shape by next Friday,
or at least in comparable shape
with other teams in the region.
The two games which Manteo
plays with the Bear Grass team
are elimination games for chance
to compete in the state ,tourna-
ment in May. Should the Red
Skins win two out of three games
with Bear Grass, they will then,
at the end of regular play, COM
pete with the winner of the Abe
marie Rural Conference. A second
game with Elizabeth City is pend
ing, but has not been decided as
vet. Later in the season, if weather
permits, all home games at Man
teo will be played at night under
the new lighting system at the
field.
Tentative lineup for the game
next Friday has been announced
as follows: catcher, Woody Wood
ward; 1st. base, David Simpson;
End. base, Coy Tillett Jr.; SIS or
third base will be J. D. Simpson;
Outfield candidates are Jimmy
Mcleod, Tommy Biggs, st. Clair
Basnight, Jr., Bobby Wise, Mar
shall Tillett, Billy Best. Pitchers
will be Merle Meekins, and Bobby
Wise.
The coaches to date have had
difficulty in finding third base
man, although several have tried
for the position. Also the pitching
department is weak with only two
dependable men. Merle Meekins
is a carry-over from last year, and
Bobby Wise is new in the position.
Merle did some fine pitching last
year and will in all probability
have to carry the load this year.

EASTER

Easter! Do we really know the
meaning of this beautiful word ?
Oh, yes, we know that it comes
on the first Sunday in April this
year. We also know that this is
the time of the year when we
throw off our old clothes, put on
new ones and try to out-dress one
another. To a child it may mean
the Easter Bunny. Yes, we know
all of these definitions for the
word Easter but do we really
know it's deeper meaning? Maybe
the reason we don't get a thrill
from the sound of the word is be-
cause we have never bothered to
read the 10Th and goth chapters
of Saint Johns Gospel in our
Bibles. In these two chapters we
find the real meaning: The day
Christ arose from the dead, after
three days in the tomb when He
died on the cross for our sins.
Pm a fourteen year old girl, and
1 know that as l read those two
chapters / get a funny feeling in
side. And, if l can read these and
get something from them, you. can
too. Why not try?
"-and seeth the stone taken
away from the sepulcher."

BANKERS TO HOLD MEETING
ON CRUISE TO HAVANA

Raleigh.-For the first time in
nearly 20 years, the North Caro-
lima Bankers Association will hold
its annual convention outside of

ton, has announced that the Goth
annual convention of the organiza-
ton will be held May 1926 aboard
a cruise ship en- route to Havana
and Nassau. Some $50 North Caro-
lima bankers and their guests will
make the trip.
The Association has chartered
the 28,000-ton "Queen of Ber-
muda', flagship of the Furness-
Bermuda Line, for the voyage. The
ship will leave Norfolk on May
10 and return on May 26.

Courtesy Is Needed On All Christmas
Greetings; Here Is The Correct Way

sWeethearts and practically all
relatives, including the in-laws,
and are a mark of individual
thoughtfulness.
If you can spare moment or
two, pen a brief holiday note on
each card. 1t adds a warm SINGER
ity and a touch of your individ-
ual personality to your Yuletide
greetings. Christmas time is a
sentimental and nostalgia season
for everyone, and many a friend
ship has been kept alive through
the years by the annual exchange
of holiday greetings.
Colored ink is entirely proper
both for signing the card and
addressing the envelope, pro

Novel Christmas
Decorations Add
Value To Presents

With so many gifts to wrap
this time of the year, paper,
cards, ribbons, seals and other
package decorations can add up
to quite sum.
By using a little imagination,
these costs can be kept at a
minimum.
Ends of wallpaper rolls, wheth-
or left over from your own
walls or bought as odd stock at
your local paint store, are especi-
ally pretty for large packages.
Even newspapers can be used to
wrap large packages and the
Want-ad section is more attrac-
tive than the other pages.
Small pieces of aluminium foil
or shelf paper from the end of
he roll are excellent for wrap
cing smaller packages. Or if you
have a young child who finger
paints, why not wrap gifts in
some of his paintings.
White tissue paper can be
made quite appealing by spatter
ing it with red or green ink or
water with food coloring added
For seals, cut out colored pic
lures from magazines, old Christ
mas cards or even small bits OF
wrapping caper and paste them
on the package. Or you can paste
them on q small piece of folded
construction paper to make ar
enclosure card.
Acorns, pine cones or oak
leaves, painted or shellacked anc
lied on top of the package will

neatly printed if you wish or
take your pen in hand and sign
the greetings yourself with a
holiday flourish.
"Mr. and Mrs"
Married couples may omit the
''Mr. and Mrs" if they prefer
and sign their cards simply
Paul and Jenny Wilson" Either
the husbands name or the wifes
may appear first. Children in the
family rate a place in the sigma
ture, too.
In addressing the envelopes, it
is best to send one card to a hus-
band and wife, and separate
cards to other adult members
of the family too. AS an alter
native, one card may be mailed
to the whole family if you are
careful to write the names Of
each individual on the envelope
including the children.
Use three-cent stamps for your
Christms,s cards, following the
rule of good taste which says
that first-class friends deserve
first-class mail. 1t is entirely
proper to write your return ad-
dress on the envelope to help
friends keep tab on changes of
address.
Selecting attractive Christmas
cards for each Of your friends is
a delightful pre-Christmas acti-
vity. Don't treat it as a sober
social responsibility. Plunge in
with a smile and the gay holiday
scenes on the cards will soon fill
your heart with Yuletide cheer
and sentiment.
