Cemeteries

In 1850, in Forsyth County,
according to the census, there
are no Watters families lis
ted and Andrew O. Hughes f
amily is not shown.
However, our marriage book
shows that Louesa Fountain W
atters married Andrew O. H

This couple was buried in Hope

1898 and Louesa F. Hughes,
May 20, 1826 to April 28, 1891.
The only marked grave at the
site of old Hopewell cemetery
is that of James Watters and
carries no dates. This old
burying ground is located be
hind the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Wilford Burruss, off Highway
19 north.
Mr. Burruss was kind enough
to show the area to me. He
explained that this was where
Hopewell church used to stand,
before they moved to their pre
sent site. He pointed out where
they used to cross the road
from the church to obtain water

SAFE MOWING
If you’re the one in your
family who takes care of the
yard-mowing duties, keep in
mind that today’s powerful lawn
mowers, when used without cau
tion, can become hazardous,
even lethal devices.
According to the Outdoor
Power Equipment Institute,
great care must be taken when
mowing slopes. If the declln is
too sharp, don’t try to mow It.
Replace grass with a ground
cover, rock garden, or build a
retaining wall.
When using a "walk-behlnd”
mower on a hill, mow across
the slope laterally—never up
and down. If you are fortunate
enough to mow riding a riding
mower or lawn tractor, the
rule is just the opposite: mow
up and down for greater stab
ility and avoid sudden uphill
sarts.
With gravel driveways, the
Institute recommends that you
disengage mower blades on rid
ing units when passing from the
grass surface of the driveway.
With standard power mowers
be sure the engine is not run
ning when crossing gravel
walks.
Low hanging branches pose a
danger when mowing. Avoid
them if possible when cutting
the yard. The safest measure
is to cut off low hanging limbs
that might injure an eye or
catch controls of the mower.
HEED PRECAUTIONS
Always observe the following
rules of mowing safety:
Learn your mower and its
operation by reading the
manual.
—Clear lawn of foreign ob
jects.
—Clear area of children and
pets.

—Keep feet well away from
mower blades—especially when
starting.
—Wear prope r clothing—no
shorts, sandals or bare feet.
—Keep dear of discharge at
all times.
—Stope engine and disconnect
spark plug before making re
pairs.
—Fill gas tank before star
ting. Make sure you refuel mo
wer out of doors. Never refuel
a hot or running engine. Never
gas *,:p or start engine in the
garage or shed.
—Never leave a running mo
wer unattended.
—Don’t allow young children
to operate a power mower.
—Always maintain mower in
top condition.
—Push. DO NOT pull awalk
behind mower.
—Be extremely careful of

opes and wet grass.
HANDY BEDSPREADS
If you are biassed with teen
agers and little ones, you know
how quickly they can soil and
stain a new, expensive bedsp
read. Sheets in one of the many
gay patterns and colors avail
able on the market today may
be the answer to your problem.
Because sheets are so easy to
launder, a sheet-bedspread is
great for children and teen
agers who flop on the bed to
read or hold bull sessions.
Use a full-sized sheet on a
twin bed so it will reach the
floor, Or, make a dust ruffle
by fitting one sheet between the
springs and mattress and ano
ther for the top coverlet. To
complete your decorating sc
heme, make matching curtains
and pillows from additional sh
eets. The wide width and deep
hems make construction easy
enough for even a beginning
seamstress.
