BEAUTIFUL PLANTS MAY BE
ATTRACTICE DANGER SOUR

Vacation time and summer
camping will bring many people
into contact with plants that
can be dangerous to them, says
DR.. w. w. Johnston of the Dare
County H e alth Department.
Everyone knows of the intense
discomfort caused by poison ivy,
but not all of us are aware that
the ornamental English ivy and
the beautiful primrose or lily of
the valley can be poisonous to
susceptible persons. Many plants
and shrubs commonly grown
about the home can be harmful
on contact to especially sensitive
people. Other plants are poison
Gus when chewed or eaten.
The leaves of the tree of hea-
ven can give an unheavenly itch
to some people. Poison sumac
in the Northeast and poison
wood in the Southeast can be
worse than poison ivy or poison
oak. Others that can be thouble-
some are parsnips, rhubarb,
wild ginger, wild carrot, hops,
juniper, dock, buckwheat, but
tercups, lady slippers, lockwood,
autumn crocus, scarlet pimper-
mel, jimson weed, virgins bower,
and the milky saps of mulberry,
snow-on-the-mountain and Usage
orange.
Mushroom (toadstool) pois-
oning is known to all, but less
known is the fact that at least
500 of people die who eat the
particularly poisonous varieties.
Only mushrooms from reliable
sources should be eaten. Even
potatoes can be poisonous when
they are green or sprouting. So
can grains, especially rye, when
infected with a certain fungus.
The romantic mistletoe has
been fatal for several children
who ate its berries. Bulbs of the
Easter lily and other lilies can
also be dangerous and should be
kept out of reach of small chill
dren.
Other plants that may cause
serious poisoning or death if
eaten include foxglove, larkspur,
oriental peoples, oleander, Da-
hne, English Ivy, narcissus, mea-
dow saffron and matrimony
vine.
Under certain growing condi-
tions some plants produce the
deadly poison, hydrocyanic or
prussic acids. These include wild
cherries, flax, Christmas berry,
choke cherry, sorghum, arrow
grass, velvet grass, and Sudan
grass.
Marijuana, or hemp requires
special mention. This devastat-
ing narcotic grows as wayside
weed in many parts of the Unit
ed States and should be destroy
ed whenever found.
To avoid discomfort and pos
sibly more serious effects it is
suggested that Dad take the
youngsters on a field tour of the
neighborhood and brief them on
what to watch out for. A pre-
liminary trip to the library or
an inexpensive paperback book
on plants will help him recognize
those he is not familiar with.

so. yard plot of land in the

sign. It will be aforementioned

hotel will have three large
banquet and meeting rooms.
Outside it will be surrounded
by spacious gardens, complete
with fountains and ponds.
Another casino-hotel COM

NAACP Breaks
Jim Crow School
Law In Ohio

XENIA, Ohio. - At NAACP
urging, the Xenia Board of Ed
ucation, after a special meeting,
admitted that the all-Negro East
Elementary School was segregated
and took first steps to eliminate
the situation. Negro parents have
been allowed to enroll their chill
dren in other schools in the city.
The Boards decision, which may
set precedent for other school
districts throughout the Miami val
ley, followed a ruling by the
Boards legal advisor.
The Greene County branch of
the NAACP also demanded that
the zoning of the segregated school
be reexamined and that steps be
taken to eliminate completely ra-
cial segregation in the school sys-
tenn. This the Board also agreed
to.
NAACP action in Xenia followed
