Vitamin A Is one of the ne
cessary food substances derived
from several sources.
It is found In fruits such as
cantaloupes and peaches. 1t is
contained in certain vegetables
such as sweet potatoes. spin
ach, carrots, squash, broccoli,
peas and dark. green. leafy vege-
tables. Certain animal products
such as eggs, cheese, milk, but
ter and liver yield substantial
amounts of vitamin A. Fish
liver, of course. is one Of the
most well-nown and principal
sources of this important vita
min.
Vitamin A is concerned with
keeping certain lining tissues
of the body in good condition.
This vitamin is also necessary
for the repair Of body tissue.
A lack of this vitamin results
in slowing of growth and the easy
catching of infections, but this
can also be truthfully said of
many of the essential food sub
stances.
Children whose diets lack Vi
tamin A are likely to have de-
fective formation of teeth and
weakened respiratory systems.
They tend to have redeemed eyes
with dry eyelids and very poor
night vision.
1t can be easily seen that a
balanced diet should contain ade-
quate quantities of vitamin A.
(Nexr week vitamin D will be
discussed.)

bride some womanly advice.
The next day Ed and l walked
to the shopping area. pur-
chased some gloves and some
handkerchiefs. We noticed the
stores were gaily decorated.
Shoppers were laden with brightly
wrapped packages. There was
an air of a celebration lowering
about.
After sightseeing we mailed
our postal cards at the postoffice.
A huge crowd was lining the
street. Ed asked a policeman
what was happening. The man
replied Parade. We didn't
know that this was the Spanish
Christmas Eve. 1t was the Might
of the Three Kings". Since the
three kings brought gifts to the
Christ Child, the Spanish theme
is centered on this point.
We joined the crowds and
pushed through the streets, the
small heels of my shoes were
often caught in the cobblestoned
sidewalks. OF the main streets,
the pathways narrowed until one
person could walk freely. Small
cars darted up and down the
lanes and the pedestrians weaved
in and out disregarding the fur
ious honleings of irate and ner-
vous drivers.

the holiday. We were exper-
fencing our second Christmas
Eve. surprised my Mother with
a telephone call. The connec-
tion was very poor but between
shoutings and sounds she finally
realized that we were not at the
Plaza hotel in New York but we
were in Spain.
The stores stayed open until
midnight to accommodate the
crowds that viewed the Parade
Of the Three Holy Kings. We
watched from the hotel window.
The floats were religious scenes.
1t was two hours long and the
people watched in silence.
We spent the remainder of the
night at the swank Hilton Hotel.
We saw many Americans there
and the plush holiday affair was
more homelike than any we had
seen during our trip. Ed re-
marked that he was glad we had
stayed at the Plaza. Americans
chatted about home. Remarks
overheard at an adjoining table
included II miss the western
television shows" or 81 miss

After a round of other night

the rate Of exchange was In our
favor. One American dollar was
worth approximately sixty pes

money began to dance in my mind.
We boarded q large bus and
drove to the city air terminal.
It was a bumpy ride, the driver
seemed to find delight in boun-
cling us about. The outskirts Of
Madrid was filled with beautiful
white stone buildings which were
federal housing units. Each unit
had a garden in the center which
was lighted. Many buildings y-had
grilled ironwork surrounding
them.
At the terminal we talked with
our friends from New York City,
MIR. and Mrs. Sobell. We spoke
with another American who was
on the same plane. He was look
ing lost because his American
Express representative hadn't
met him. He was a pathetic
sight. Here was a grown man
who had a thriving business.
waiting to be led to lodgings like
a waif. The entire trip had been
planned for him and all he had
to do was get on each plane.
Madrid traffic Is similar to
the Partisan scramble. Taxis
scurried past the terminal and
the porters shouted excitedly and
halted them by dashing into the
street. We were whisked through
the night to the Hotel Plaza.
Madrid drivers played cat and
mouse with screeching brakes
and active horns.
Our hotel was one of the most
beautiful I have ever seen. 1t
was Is stories high. Centrally
located, it was near the shopping
area and the grand plaza. We
were taken to our suite but we
asked for another one because
the rugs had been cleaned re-
Gently. The fumes made my eyes
water and I began to sneeze.
Another suite on the fourteenth
floor was available and we
moved in.
The suite was lavishly furn-
ished. Thick carpeting. oil paint
ings, tiled bathroom, paneled
walls, wall-length cedar lined
closets and a long entry hall
plus a sitting room and bedroom
were ours for the cost of seven
dollars a day.
Ed and I caught the elevator
and told the spat wearing opera
tor to go to the Plaza Grill loca-
ted on the twenty-fifth floor. We
had to take second elevator at
floor number twenty. 1t was an
express car large enough for
six persons. AS we alighted, the
orchestra was playing. A few
couples were dancing. We stood
for a few minutes looking down
at the city. This view from the
roof was excellent. Madrid Is
built almost on a square plan.
The main plaza, the Puerta de
Sol is the center of the city.
Madrid is brilliantly lighted. ALI
of the famous buildings and
squares are well-preserved. l
often wondered after seeing so
many beautiful old structures
in Europe--why were our bullo-
ings destroyed so quickly.
We ate dinner and relaxed for
a couple of hours at the Plaza
roof room. A courteous waiter
talked with us for a while. He
was learning English and he asked
us many questions about our
country.

Newspapers in a free society have a
definite responsibility to the public they
serve. Often, however, members of the
free press either deny that such an obll-
cation exists, or simply ignore 1t. his
sort of unfortunate situation can have
only deleteriouS effects to the immediate
community and other areas served by the
media.
So often, many of today's editors tend
to regard themselves as something of a
chosen people" Because of the Speci-
fled sanctions granted newspapers under
our Constitution, as they interpret it, a
sense of power, rather than responsible
~, is fOStered.
The struggle for freedom of speech
and the press had been waged for centu-
rieS prior to the beginnings of our own
country. When these rights were clearly
spelled out in Article | of the Bill of
Rights, the action was hailed as a great
victory for liberty-loving peoples. The
rights were not then intended, nor now
interpreted as absolute ones, however.
AS a relative right, freedom of speech
of the press is limited by the co-existing
rights of others and public decency. AS
Mr.. Justice Holmes SO aptly put it, The
most stringent protection of free speech
would not protect a man IN falsely
shouting fire in a theatre and causing a
panic"

s%ponSibility to the public interest from a

Throughout our nations history news

OLD SOUTH

Because of the fertility
of the soil and the mild
ness of the weather, Hol-
mes County is especially
suited for agriculture.
Since it's founding, agri-
culture has been the prin-
cipal occupation; cotton
being the main crop. Each
year many bales have
been shipped from this
territory, for it is indeed,
the only paying crop pro-
duced by farmers.
The first cotton gin run
by steam was owned by
Colonel j. M. Johnson of
Acona, in 1872. This kind
of cotton gin was almost
unheard of in this section
of the country at that
time, and as the Gin was
carried on wagons pulled
by oxen to Colonel John
sons plantation, the
school dismissed so the
teachers and children
could view this modern
invention.
First Mill
Lexington might well
boast of the first Oil Mill
in Holmes County. 1t was
founded by j. E. Gwin
and was used to press oil
from cotton seed to be
made into products for
the settlers in the COM
munity, and the hulls
were used for food for
the livestock. The mill
was used for many years
but proved to be a fail
ure. Later however, G.
A. Wilson established an
oil mill in Lexington that
proved a great success.
The first foundry in
Holmes County was on
Chicopa Creek about four
miles west of Acona, in
1880. This foundry was
owned by L. S. Byrd, Tom
Henson and Mathew
Beard. About three years
later the foundry was
moved to Parrisville, near
Acona, and carried on a
profitable business for
many years. Here it was
owned by Mr.. Johnson,
