Cheryl Reavis came across this photograph in her family archives of workmen at Spencer Shops. As you can see, the sign identifies the group as mill and planer men from 1913. Reavis says her husband’s uncle, G.E. Carter, worked for Southern Railway, which owned the Spencer Shops repair facility. If you have an old photograph you think might make a good “Yesterday” contribution, contact Mark Wineka at 704-797-4263, or mwineka@salisburypost.com.

ational 4-H week is here, Oct. 3-9. To celebrate, Rowan County 4-H will be joining millions of young people across the nation to become scientists during the third annual 4-H National Youth Science Day on Wednesday. In this year's experiment, 4H2O, youth will learn about carbon dioxide and discover how we as a nation can reduce our environmental imSARA pact. DRAKE This year’s National Science Experiment is designed to engage youth around the country in asking the question: Why is water quality important and why is it important to understand it now? Water quality is a term used to describe the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of water. Today, as our population evolves, we face a growing concern that our sources of clean water are becoming contaminated by warming temperatures, carbon dioxide emissions and dangerous run off. These changes in the water quality affect not only our drinking water supply, but also the natural habitats of aquatic plants, animals and organisms.

Created to combat a shortage of American young people pursuing science college majors and careers, 4-H National Youth Science Day seeks to spark an early youth interest and leadership in science. 4-H year-round, out-of-school programming is developed by the nation’s 109 land-grant universities and is implemented through the 3,100 local Cooperative Extension offices across the nation. Currently, more than 5 million young people across the nation participate in 4 H.
North Carolina A&T State University led the development of this year’s project. Rowan County 4-H will be hosting two sessions on Wednesday from 5:30 until 6:15 p.m. • Session one is for youth in grades K-2nd. • Session 2 is for youth in grades 3rd-6th. The event will be held at the Rowan County Cooperative Extension Office, 2727 Old Concord Road. Space is limited and you must pre-register for this event by calling 704-216-8970. • • • Sara Drake is the extension agent with responsibilities for 4-H Youth Development in Rowan County.
