It was Issued to mark the 300th anniversary ol a vast land grant that staggers the imagination of . today, 1,500.000 square miles, reach ing from Virginia to Florida along the Atlantic coast, and etxending West to the Pacific ocean. Eight Lords were given this land for helping King Charles II of England to regain the throne. We have these eight Lords to thank for much of our basic principles of American Freedom. The system they established was so liberal that many Englishmen con sidercd it radical. These men gave us our law, "trial by jury," and religious freedom was part of their system. Edenton, N.C., was selected as the First Day of Issue for this attractive stamp because it was one of the state s earn, est settlements. Our Freedom from Hunger stamp will be issued June 4 Many countries arc issuing stamps the picture of bearded wheat.

L A GOOD NEIGHBOR "Love me, love my dog," is an old idea that causes a lot of trouble for dogs and dog owners. And even people who love your dog have a right-to expect that you will be a good neighbor and will help your dog to be one. Dogs, of course, are "man's best friend," but without training they can cause un. happy neighborhood squab' bles and even cause serious damage. Many people are afraid of dogs; many people don t want dogs romping through their gladioli: few people enjoy being bitten or having their own pets chased, injured or even killed. More over; dogs that are uncon trolled and are not properly cared for by their owners cost taxpayers and philan thropists more than $50,000,. 000 a year In the operation ol animal shelters, pounds and Incidental services. No one is going to love you OR your dog if you and your dog are a public and costly nuisance. Remember - what ever happens, it's not the dog's fault, it yours. Have you obeyed the law by buying whatever license may be required for your dog? Have you a fenced yard or are you in some other humane way keeping your dog under control at home? When your dog barks ex cessively, do you call him Into the house and give him a chance to calm down? If you have a female doit have you had her spayed, or do you keep her confined dur ing her mating seasons? Don't let your dog roam, your dog at all times, gets human companionship in its own home than if it It shoved outdoors every morn ing to wander at large. Espe cially, keep your dog from wandering through the coun tryside where it can kill wildlife, poultry or livcslock. Keep fresh water available to your dog at all times. Feed a varied, balanced ration regularly. Clip and brush often. A healthy dog with a glossy coat is a pride and joy. If your dog is injured or 111. get professional veterinary care immediately. Keep an identifying tag on yuor dog at all times. And remember, your dog can't lie a better neighbor than YOU are. showing a lion either tram pling or dragging a man. The new government in Iraq took over Feb. 8, our calendar, but Feb. 14, Ramadhan, their calendar. In the days to come we will see U.S. stamps printed from a new nine-color press. This press is being built now by the Huck company. My letters from Yemen are franked with overprint stamps, "Free Yemen Fights for God, Imam and Country." Right now my pen friends in this country of turmoil arc having a hard time to get mail sent anywhere. They take a letter to the post office, buy stamps, and place them on the envelope, then they arc told no mail is leav ing for at least a month. My pen friends that can afford It travel -to another town. Many are told the same thing, yet a few letters have gotten out of the country. The United Nations im printed stamps on the April 26 issue of the 8c airmail, the Sc regular envelopes, and the 6c airmail and 4c regular postcards are colorful. The envelopes are executed in four-color offset lithography. A nice collection to have. Many collectors like and enjoy using printed album pages, including myself, and at last, in the Philatelic world, we now have a friend. Earl P. L. Apfclbaum has criticized stamp exhibitions for ignoring collectors who use printed album pages. Our stamp club will apply for the Maurice Apfclbaum Award, polished gold medallion, named after the firm's foun der, and the father of Earl Apfclbaum. This recognition makes many collectors very happy. Enter yours at our SOPEX 1963 stamp show Sept. 21 and 22, at the Girls Community club.
