Good association is the saving of this nature. There is enough ability to make a success of life, if the thoughts are turned into proper channels. If they are allowed to fall into im proper ways the end is liable to boa blighted life, oftpn from sheer cir cumstance which might be overcome.

Kitchin Is Urged For Tobacco Job (Continued from Page One.) sive Farmer, is also advocating the appointment of Kitchin as tobacco administrator. Governor J. C. B. Ehrlnghaus is also advocating the •appointment of Kitchin. Administrators have already been appointed for ihe cotton, wheat and several other branches of agriculture but none has yet been named to re present the tobacco farmers. Since North Carolina grows mor© tobacco > han any other State, and sine e Kit chin is regarded as one of the most successful and outstanding tobacco and general farmers in the State, it ;'s believed here that Secretary Wal lace could not select a better man for this post. It is also pointed out that most, of the other administrators so far selected have been theoretical rather than actual I “dirt farmers,” and that it would be good policy to have a real “dirt farmer” as one of the administrators. He would be as sociated. with the other administra tors, under the direction of George N. Peck, who has been appointed by Secretary Wallace as general agri cultural administrator under the' new farm control act. Mr. Kitchin is one of the master farmers of the State, having been de signated aS such by State College and The Progressive Farmer because of the outstanding work he has done on his farm in Halifax county. He is a brother of the late Governor W. W. Kitchin, of the late Congressman Claude Kitchin also of Dr. Thurman D. Kitchin, president of Wake: For est College, all of whom have made outstanding records in North Caro lina. . Friends of Mr. Kitchin here are confident that no one knows the pro 'b’.em, of the* tobacco farmers better than he.
