WHY NOT GIVE THE BOY SCOUTS A HAND?

Few causes of this nature equal the Boy Scout
ment in worth and benefits to young folks who after ALL
have little of value todays recreaonal programs For
this reason, call attention to the forthcoming annual
District Boy Scout banquet to be held in Elizabeth City
Saturday February 9h for the scouts of the Northeastern
N G. counties
The burden of stimulating interest in the banquet this
year falls the shoulders of Gus Huffman of the National
Park Service Usually there is little interest maintained in
scout work in Dare County for spell of any length, but
more is to be expected this year. with John Earle being
the scoutmaser and he having assistants Doug Cch

HYDE AND BEAUFORT
ARE DESIGNATED FOR
EMERGENCY FILA LOANS

The Department of Agriculture
has just announced the designation
through December 81, 1857, of five
counties in North Carolina as an
area where the Farmers Home Ad-
ministration may make emergency
loans to eligible farmers.
The counties named are Beaufort,
Hyde, Pamlico, Tyrrell, and Wash
inston.
The Department said excessive
rainfall and extreme temperatures
in late October and early Novem-
Der of 1866 resulted in damage and
losses to crops.
Emergency loans are made to
finance normal operations, but may
not be used to refinance existing
debts. Farmers can apply for loans
at the Farmers Home Administra-
ton county offices serving the
area.
To be eligible, q farmer must be
unable to obtain the credit he needs
from other local sources. In addi-
ton, he must be primarily engaged
in farming and have suitable ex-
perience and reasonable prospects
for success in the farming opera
tions he plans to carry on with he
loan. The applicant must have suf-
fered substantial loss from the
adverse weather conditions.
Payments are scheduled accord
ing to the borrowers ability to
repay. Loans to meet operating ex-
penses are secured by liens on
crops and ordinarily on chattel
property, and run from l to
years depending on the exact pur-
poses for which loans funds are
advanced. Loans for crop produc-
ton are usually scheduled for re-
payment when the income from the
crops is normally received. The in
terest rate is 8 percent.
According to Hyde County FILA
Supervisor Leon Balance, interest
ed farmers may get full details
on the emergency loan program by

TIL E PAST
By CAROLYN LLOYD

Just imagine-there is now a
generation of children who will
never remember being sent to the
cloakroom. No one could truly re-
greet the passing of the old cloak
room from the classroom scene,
but it is part of the childhood
memories of many generations.
Few are those who can honestly
deny having been disciplined by
Being sent into solitary there.
The cloakroom, for the benefit of
those who can't remember, was a
long, narrow, dark, smelly append
age to the classroom. 1t was smelly
in winter from coats, overshoes,
and all the discarded trash of the
classroom. 1t was a haven for
mice, which made their nests in tie
discarded papers and the pockets
of the coat which some child al.
ways left at school. 1t was the
limbo to which the unruly were
sentenced. 1t vas the hiding place
where playful pupils were general
ly found after being missed at roll
call. 1t was also a convenient place
for little extra-curricula counting.
the Matching of plots, and the pass
ing of gossip. The modern school
hns nothing like it.
AS a pupil in the grammar
grades, was well-acquainted with
the cloakroom, it being the place
where gigglers were dispatched to
get their mirth under control. The
high school that I attended was
completely modern in design, so I
lost touch with the possibilities of
the cloakroom until l became
teacher. The one l inherited along
with my classroom was typical
dark, smelly, and filled with rotting
maps and other trash. rever in
tended using it for anything other
than coats, having been imbued
with the modern principles of edu-
cation; but, as is so often the case,
I found that college theory does
not always work when confronted
with live pupils.
There was in my room a girl who
presented the utmost challenge to
a green teacher. She was as tall
as 1, lacked only one year of being
as old, and had evidently dedicated
her life to the harassment of teach
ers. No amount of effort at apply
ing Psychology made a dent in her
determination to be annoying. Had
| even considered corporal punish
ment, it was evident that l was
not capable of administering it,
since she was just as big and twice
as mean as l. Therefore, / some-
times, in desperation, banished her
to the cloakroom. One day the
principal dropped in and noticed
her absehce. When he learned that
she was in the cloakroom, he in
formed me that she couldn't learn
there and that must
keep her in the classroom. 1t was
my opinion that she wasn't going
to learn anything anywhere, since
she didn't want to; but the princi-
pal was the boss and back she
came to keep someone else's mind
off learning. Wherever she is to-
day, I hope that her personality
has not suffered from such cruel
treatment.
Modern ideas of education and
have made the cloak
room passe. Children are better
off without them, but a few would
probably like the opportunities for
they afforded.

FISHERMEN

He told the fishermen that CO.
operative studies with representa-
tives of the paper manufacturer
showed that the Neuse River at
that point would handle $4,000
pounds of waste affluent and de-
oxygenized water daily in normal
flow without harm to fish life.
The waste volume contemplated at
full plant production would be
$4,000 pounds daily.
Hubbard explained that the sys-
tenn proposed by the Stream SAM
tation Committee, and agreed to by
the manufacturer, would cut that
waste volume considerably by re-
use of water, discharge of the
waste water into sedimentation
ponds, and into holding ponds for
it's regeneration.
The report, endorsed previously
by the Fisheries Committee of the
Department of Conservation and
Development, held that the dam
age to the fisheries would be "triv-
ial" and not felt "too greatly"
However, Hubbard pointed out.
resolution passed by the board
of the Stream Sanitation Commit
tee gives more assurance to the
commercial fisherman and others
concerned. The document and rul-
ings, with which the manufacturer
must comply, stipulates that the
waste must be released only ac-
cording to the volume Of stream
flow of the Neuse River. TIL,
waste equipment design must be
approved by the Committee; con-
troll devices must maintain daily
records on the waste discharge;
and stream samplings must be
taken above and below the Bache-
lor's Creek entry of the waste
into the Neuse.
In the event of violation of the
regulatory resolution, Hubbard
said, the company would be liable
to a fine up to $500 upon prosecu-
ton by the Stream Sanitation
Committee. Individual or group
action against any stream pollu-
ton must be taken in an injunctive
proceeding in the civil courts,
Hubbard explained.
! The Fisheries Association took
action by resolution in support OF
a suggestion by Cecil Morris for
saving the Outer Banks between
Ocracoke Inlet and Drum Inlet
Morris, chairman of the Fisheries
Committee of the Department Of
Conservation and Development
said that the stretch of Outer
Banks was "about gone," and that
unless something was done to save
