ben receiving compliments on
the color scheme and design
Of her shop. She says that most
Of the credit should be given
to David Chang, the architect
for his plans and to Winthrop
Hector, local carpenter, who
expertly executed these plans.
The Toy Chest first opened
its doors on September II,
1857. In those 10 months It has
become a center Of attraction
for those who seek the best IN
American and European toys.

DOLLARS FOR CANCER

Cancer research is on the march.
The world never before has seen so
many brilliant minds employed on a
single health problem. The American
Cancer Society alone, through volun-
tary contributions from the public, is
supporting more than 1000 scientists
in research centers throughout the
country. The objective of all these
scientists is to find a way of saving
the lives of the 255,O0O men, women
and children who now die each year
of cancer.
There has been q marked change
in the attitude of scientists about
cancer in recent years. A past presi-
dent of the American Cancer Society
has put it this way: Not so long ago
young scientists seemed to see over
the doors of a cancer laboratory, the
familiar wordS-'Abandon Hope All
ie Who Enter Here Today there is
hope. Hundreds of young scientists
trained since the war are in cancer
research. There is feeling of urgency
in the scientific community that is
new and unique. Enough of the dust
of ages of ignorance has been swept
away to reveal the scope and the size
Of the cancer problem - and how
it may we'll be solved
Many millions of dollars have been
spent on cancer research since the
American Cancer Society launched
the first major attack in 1915. How
sound an investment has it been? Ten
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1959-04-29

years ago only one out of four of
those who developed cancer was
saved. Today it is one out of three.
And one out of two saved is in sight.
Today there are 100000 Americans
alive who have been cured of cancer.
The number saved is increasing daily.
Research has vastly improved and
expanded methods of treatment and
diagnosis of cancer. Scientists are now
at the point where they can chart an
about attack on cancer. And they are
pinpointing immediate targets. Do
viruses cause cancer in man? Some
are known to in animals and in hu-
mans the search goes on. What is the
relationship of hormones to cancer?
Scientists now know a relationship
exists. They are investigating, too, the
question of possible natural and &C
qulred resistance to cancer; and they
are studying thousands of chemicals
to find some that will control cancer
growth.
The feeling of urgency in solving
the cancer problem is real. In fact,
it is so real that many qualified
scientists, anxious to pitch in and help
hurry up the solution, find themselves
without funds to do it. Each year the
American Cancer Society finds itself
in the position of having to turn down
requests for funds for worthwhile re-
search projects simply because it does
not have the money. Let all of us sup
ply the needed funds by supporting
the Society'S April Crusade.

Children May
Not Work Durinu
School Hours

With the spring strawberry
picking season at hand, farmers
were reminded today that while
the Federal Wage and Hour Law
permits children of any age to
work on farms after school and
during vacation. it prohibits
farm work by children under Is
during school hours.
This reminder cones from
State Labor Commissioner
Frank Crane, who administers
the Wage-Hour Law in North
Carolina.
GRANGE said that the child-la-
Dor provisions apply to local
youngsters and children of mig
ratory workers alike. The only
exception to the Law is in the
case of children working exclu-
sively for their parent or legal
guardian. he added.
To make sure of the age of
any young worker he hires. the
farmer should require an age
certificate. These certificates
which serve as proof of age for
purposes of law. can be obtained
from local County Welfare Sup
erintendentS.
The child-labor provisions ap.
ply to farmers whose crops &c
either directly or indirectly into
interstate or foreign commerce
Commissioner Crane pointed out
that a farmer must observe the
Law il he has reason to believe
that his crops. either in their
, oroiginal form or processed. viii
eventually cross State lines.
Additional information abou
the application of the Wage-Houl
Law to children working or
farms can be obtained from the
Wage and Hour Office of the
N. c. Department of Labor, at
Raleigh ~"

TEACHER MERIT SYSTEM

The pay hike expected for the teachers probably
won't materalize this General Assembly session.
But there strong feeling favoring the merit
system for teacher pay increases.
That merit system has some logic cannot be
denied. But there plenty of teachers who could
well a merit system examination but who
lack the dedication and gentle understanding of
humanity to be considered good teachers.
The best teacher | ever had - who influenced
than all the rest for whatever that might be
worth - couldn't have passed simple math eXami-
nation.
| keep wondering why Legislators don't spend a bit
of their time in classrooms that they might get first
hand report of teachers responsibilities. Then the
teachers could spend time in the General Assem-
bly, to better understand the legislators problems
But that wouldn't work you couldn't get the
teachers back in the classroom and the Legislators
couldn't stand to have such obscure position
that afforded a school teacher.

a small family is closer knit"

of Sac City. Iowa, explained
that with a small family 1.-The
same things can be accom-
plished, like sharing, loving
one another. etc, but in a
small family more Of each

These responses came from
teen-agers choosing four or
more children as ideal for a
family:

must learn to live with other

Census experts predict
that in the next 10 years
our population will increase
spectacularly-and the atti-
tude Of today's teen-agers
about family size shows this
may happen.
Exactly half of the 600
young people We questioned
across the Nation said they
prefer large families. BY
large" they mean families
with four or more children.
The teen-agers apparent
ly are firmly against the
one-child family. Sixty
four per cent said they do
not approve of a family hav-
ing only one child. Most of
them think one child would
be spoiled. Only 8 per cent
said they would like to have
Just one child after they
marry.
One-third of those boiled
said that having four chill
dren would be ideal. and
nearly as many think that
three children is average.
Those in favor Of large
families gave q number Of
reasons for their preference.
but most of them boiled
down to the idea that large
families have more fun and
get along better together.
Typical Of the response
was that made by Marie Bo-
gacki, 16, of st. Louis, who
said she prefers a large fam
lily because a large family
has more fun together. There
is never a dull moment"
Another 16-year-old, Anne
Rock of maica Plain.
Mass, said: II think chill
dren in a large family are
more responsible. They have
to care for the other chill
dren and do more work."

there is no jealousy In most

similar to the one given by
