Instantly killed in the crash were Commander John Dewey Topping, 54, and his wife Mrs. Gladys Webb Topping, 52, occu­ pants of the car. Their bodies were brought to Mocksville and shipped to Birmingham, Ala., where services were held Tues­ day. The accident occured around 8:30 p.m. Friday night on high­ way 158, about six miles north­ east of Mocksville, during a driv­ ing rain. The Topping car re­ portedly skidded broadside into the path of a Greyhound bus which plowed into the right side of the car, demolishing it. The car was headed towards Mocks­ ville and the bus towards Winston- Salem. No passengers on tho Grey­ hound bus were injured. Consid­ erable damage was done to the front of the bus. The passengers were transported on their way in another bus dispatched from Winston-Salem.

Local Veterans Hear Bonus Plan Discussed AMVET Organization Chartered in County An enthusiastic crowd of Davie County veterans, both World War I and II heard the proposal for a referendum on the question of a state bonus to vet­ erans discussed at a special meet­ ing last week. Although it was not the best o'i weather, the court­ house was almost filled. Andy Delvecovo of Burlington, active in the AMVETS organiza­ tion and a leader in the state bo­ nus movement, discussed the pro­ posal for a North Carolina bonus to the veterans of World War I, World War II, and the Korean conflict. Mr. Delvescovo explain­ ed past experiences with the leg­ islature in the effort to get this bill passed. He urged the veter­ ans to elect a representative that favored a bonus bill, and to urge that representative not to favor Bost of Cabarrus Cohnty as speak­ er of the House. Bost, Delvescovo explained," was Instrumental in defeating this measure the last session. Along with Delvescovo was Senator Tom Sawyer who intro duced the state bonus bil in the last legislature in Raleigh. Mr. Sawyer described the legaslature maneuverings in which the last bill was killed. He also urged the veterans to take an active inter­ est In politics. Following the discussion of the State bonus issue, a meeting was held at which time the AMVET organization, for veterans of World War II, chartered a post in Davie County. This organiza­ tion will carry on the fight to have the question of a State bo­ nus submitted to the people. To indicate the interest in this pro­ posal, petitions are being circu­ lated among all-veterans. The officers elected for the newly chartered AMVET organi­ zation were as follows: Commander, Ben C. Ellis; 1st Vice Commander, C. R .Carter; 2nd Vice Commander, C. F. Co- zart; Adjutant, C. C. Craven; Pub­ lic Relations Officer, Robert Ev­ ans; Service Officer, Woodrow Wilson; Provost" Marshall,” How- ard Boger.' The group set their next meet­ ing for Monday, Aug. 18, at the county court house. and that the .details would be an­ nounced around August 15. The report of this progress was made by Wade Groce, chairman o'i the telephone committe of the Grange and a member of the board of directors of the telephone co-op. The committee on redecorat­ ing the Grange Hall reported the job virtually completed. This committee, Mrs. Wade Groce, chairman, was commended for their fine work. It was announced that a quilt­ ing would be held at the grange hall on Friday, August 8, at 8 a. m., for the purpose of making a quilt which the grange will enter in the State contest. Grange wo­ men were requested to bring needles, thimbles, and lunch for themselves.. The. community service com­ mittee of the Grange will meet at the home of Mrs. Wade Groce on Friday, August 8, at 8 p.m., to work on the community service report for 1952. Here & There HERITAGE OUTING Approximately 500 attended the annual outing Saturday of the Heritage Furniture Company held at Rich Park. Various games and contests were enjoyed with prizes being awarded the winners. Five year service pins were presentd to Edward L. Short and Hubert Han­ ey of Mocksville.

Glenn (Dink) Trexler, 35, and Lester Campbell, both of Route 4, Mocksville, claim that they do not remember attempting to break into the Ledford Department Store at Cooleemee, stealing a car, breaking into Hall Drug Com­ pany here and smashing a win­ dow at Stratford Jewelry Store and taking $1593 worth of jewel ry. When arrested in Halifax, Va., they were in the stolen car, had around $411 of the stolen jewelry, and both had lacerated hands.

Next a 1936 model car was stolen from the mill parking lot at Cooleemee. This car belonged to Mark Clark, Negro, who farms by day and works in the mill at night. Tire imprints revealed that this same car was later park­ ed in the rear of Stratford Jew­ elry Store. Hall Drug Company Also sometime during that same period, entry was made into Hall Drug Company by knock­ ing out a glass over the rear door. An attempt was made to open the safe, but the explosion of a planted tear gas bomb in the safe apparently thwarted this. An electric fan, still running the next morning, was found near the (Continued on Page 8) The remains of the automobile in which Commander John Dewey Topping and wife lost their lives last Friday night m a collision with a Greyhound bus.

They were to attend the annual Coronation Ball Sat­ urday night in Asheville of the Rhododendron Royal Brigade of Guards, a uniform-social organi­ zation. Commander Topping was organizer of the group and a high officer. He was a nephew of the late John Dewey, Columbia University philosopher, and a brother of Mrs. Helen Topping Miller of Skyland, noted novel­ ist and short story writer. A native of Fenton, Michigan, he moved to Birmingham, Ala., where ho became director of pub­ licity for the State Boy Scout Council and field executive for the Birmingham Scout organiza­ tion. He also once was editor of the Sunday edition o'i the Bir­ mingham Age-Herald. From 1926 until 1941 he was publicity director of the Ashe­ ville Chamber of Commerce and was a district manager for Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company. He entered the Naval Reserve as a Lieutenant in Dec., 1942, and„was made a Lt. Commander in 1945, and a full commander some time later. W. F. Wicker of Winston-Sa- lem, driver of the bus, told high­ way patrolman L. E. Green that the Topping car skidded on the pavement directly info the path . of the bus. Dr. E. A. MacMillan of Winston-Salem, a passenger on the bus, stated that the couple must have been killed instantly. He pronounced them dead. Patrolman Green stated that so far as he was concerned no charg­ es would be preferred against the bus driver. Statements of witnesses''supported Wicker's re­ port that the car skidded directly into the path of the bus and the collision was on ttie right side of the road. PAGE TWO THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, ?87J» Duties vs Feelings How can I defend my own rights without hurting anyone’s feeling? This is probably one of the oldest ques­ tions on earth and no doubt has been asked many times by almost everyone. We are trying to get along in a busy and crowded world. All of us are bound together, depending on each other. Yet each one of us with a different personal pro­ gram, different needs, different notions of right and wrong. And each one of us is faced with the necessity of maintain­ ing his own rights, fighting for his own plan and place. Then how can we do it without stepping on the other fellow’s toes? The answer is simply that we can’t and we shouldn’t expect to. And the other fellow shouldn’t be peeved because we can’t. However, many times we do not like to accept that answer. It sems almost too harsh while it is so easy to be sentimental, lazy and cowardly. We don’t like to of­ fend anyone, and we don’t like a fuss. It is much pleasant­ er to give up, to do anything for peace. A youngster can honorably avoid unpleasantness . . . “get along nicely with people” by letting them have their own way. But no decent adult can ooze through exist­ ence in this manner. Mature life is a serious job. There are responsibilities to be met, rights to be defended, op­ portunities to be developed. These aren’t selfish desires, they are fundamental duties. When these fundamental duties are hindered by mo­ tives of selfishness, or from stupidity or sentimentality then we must defend ourselves against them. People who cultivate or coddle qualities that block the traffic must ex­ pect to be penalized. This does not mean that we should serve our own in­ terests ruthlessly, riding rough shod over anyone that gets in our way. It simply means that our life is our most precious gift and sacred obligation. It’s up to everyone to make the most of it, not only for ourselves but for those we love. And if the other fellow hinders us, we’ve no more right to coddle his cussedness than we’d have to coddle our own.

Letters To The Editor Editor, Mocksville Enterprise: The “Wets" are true to form in bestiring themselves as the “dead­ line" o'i August 30 approaches. It is altogether natural that those who have been foolish enough to invest money and reputation in the nefarious business of selling alcoholic drink to their fellow men ,or yet more foolish to become addicts in its use—that these peo­ ple would become agitated when they see the inevitable doom of their business and source of sup­ ply. Nevertheless, these people are now on a "dead-end” street in my opinion. I think there are enough men and women of sober sense in Davie County who have already judged this infamous agent of human depravity to put it under the legal ban on August 30th. I believe this viper’s head is going to be crushed on that date. But one vis astonished to see that whole columns in thc paper were consumed in an attempt to glorify the business of selling beer and wine in the county. These people do not sec ,or admit, that beer is the universal agent that starts millions of alcoholic ad­ dicts on the road to alcoholism. Evidently they are not aware that breweries and distilleries operate a veritable wedlock that is world­ wide, because their products are a dove - tailing combination to catch and to enslave victims. Have these people been so naive and sleepy that they have not seen how many tens of thousands of drinkers the beer barons have made o'i our young men who re­ turn from the military establish­ ments? Do they not know of the vile schemes that these bloated barons use, such as "free beer" parties and service men’s clubs “flooded with beer?” (The un­ varying pattern in the training camps is “Liquor for the officers, beer for the enlisted men” ). Any­ how the parents of these boys know the damage that beer drink­ ing docs, both at home and in the training camps or anywhere else; and they kngw that they leB alU F this evil, or to go on tolerating these beer dispensaries at every road fork. And, believe it or not, one of the “wet” scribes delivered a long tirade against prohibition,” and made the colossal error of speak­ ing of the last 20 years as an era of prohibition. He should have spoken in these 20 years as the era during which the aftermath of the betrayal and cruxifixion of j Cicero F. Ridenhour, 58, Of Cooleemee Cicero Franklin Ridenhour, 58, of Cooleemee, died at a Salisbury hospital Sunday after al illness of eight months. He had been seriously ill for the past two months. He was born in Davie County Sept. 6, 1893. son of John Frank­ lin and Louise Foster Ridenhour. He spent his entire life in Davie County and for the past 25 years lived in Cooleemee, where he was employed by Erwin Mills. He was a member of the Cooleemee Methodist Church for the past 34 years. He was maricd Nov. 13, 1915 to Miss Sally McDaniel, who survives. Other survivors are two sons, James and C. F. Ridenhour, Jr., both of Cooleemee; five daugh­ ters, Mrs. Baxter Carter, Mrs. Margaret Horstein, Mrs. Fred Dunn, Mrs. Charlie Jordan and Mrs. Louis Beck, all of Cooleemee; two brothers, Baxter Ridenhour of Durham and Lester Ridenhour of Burlington; five sisters, Mrs. Carl Hellard of Salisbury, Rt. 6, Mrs. Clay Steele of Salisbury, Rt. 1, Mrs. Earl Dcdmon of Mocks­ ville, Rt. 4, Mrs. Tom Tiller of Lynchburg, Va,, and Mrs. Laque Richie of Charlotte; nnd eight grandchildren.

College. ....................... ... prohibition has been witnessed. But that has long been the stock in trade of the liquor people—to berate prohibition and make it the scape goat for a million crimes that liquor itself has instigated. Prohibition is of divine origin. According to holy writ man was given strict prohibition for the discipline of his spirit while he was yet without transgression. The story relates that man came un­ der depravity and a fallen state when he violated the prohibition, at the prompting of Satan. But the “prohibition" was not repeal­ ed. Man’s innocency was re­ pealed, and he was sent forth to contend with “thorns and briars.’ So, man’s perversness and wil- fullness is the problem, not pro­ hibition. We citizens of Davie County cannot drive the liquor traffic out of the United States ,and by that retrieve the honor and benefit that came to this nation under the Eigntheenth Amendment to the Constitution (and help to lift the judgment of a curse that I believe will rest upon the nation until the repudiation of prohibit­ ion is reversed); but we can pul its sale under the heel of the law and make it an outlaw by voting overwhelmingly against it on August 30. And, remember voters that the hardest blow- you can deliver to the villany of bootlegging liquor in the County is to destroy these “breastworks’ ’of the bootlegg­ ers—the beer and wine joints.

C.) ENTERPRISE Central Telephone Company Requests Rate Adjustment Filing of a petition with the North Carolina Public Utilities Commission for authorization of an adjustment of tho schedules of monthly charges for local tele­ phone service in North Carolina exchanges has been announced by W. S. Beddingfield, Mt. Airy, N. C.t North Carolina Manager of thc student of economics in commun­ ities served by the Company, who have pointed out that the value of telephone service to business institutions has increased greatly with increases of from 50 to 100 per cent or more in telephones during tho post-war years, and that for this and other reasons Central Telephone Company. J they would much prefer to have "The proposed adjustment in a larger portion o'i tho increase the Company’s rate schedules in­ volves increases averaging some­ what less than 25c per month for residence telephones, Bcdding- field stated, “ and by comparison with this small increase for resi­ dence st rvice, business telephone rate increases averaging approxi- miately $1.50 per main business telephone, will carry the greater portion of the increase in tele­ phone rates required to meet the higher wages, higher taxes, and higher material costs imposed upon the Telephone Company by the continuing spiral of infla­ tion. However, Beddingfield add­ ed, “the policy of placing a small percentage of the necessary in­ crease on residence rates is large­ ly the result of suggestions of thoughtful businessmen and other in telephone rates in their busi­ ness rather than their household expense budgets. “Continued rising costs of pro­ viding service makes thc increase necessary,” Beddingfield said. “Principal items affecting costs are wages, taxes and materials. "Wages are our biggest item of expense,” he said. “Wage in­ creases since 1941, including the most recent one, have raised our annual wage costs in North Car­ olina more than $341,000, com­ pared to $269,000 added to ann­ ual revenues by rate increases during the same period. Since payroll expense represents nearly two-thirds of the Company’s op­ erating costs a major general wage increase drastically affects the Company's cost of furnishing THRSDAY, AUGUST 7, 1952 M ea l fy e !

"Higher wage and material costs not only affect every day operating costs seriously, but al­ so result in hegher priced invest­ ment since additions to plant must be made at higher and higher unit costs—higher than ever be­ fore. In 1941, for example, the Company invested an average of about $175 in plant for each tele­ phone added; which figure is now almost doubled due to increased costs of construction since that time. “The Company's plant invest­ ment in North Carolina increased $2,148,000 or 172 per cent during the past five years to take care of a 98 per cent increase in tele­ phones. This is the result of an almost spectacular increase in de­ mand Yor telephone service which in turn resulted from a pheno­ menal progress in agriculture, commerce, and industry,and in' housing development in the com­ munities served by the Company in North Carolina. We are now serving about 21,500 telephones in North Carolina, an increase of over 13,300 in the past 10 years. But the demand keeps up and we know that we must continue to build and expand, since we see every-day evidence of further new residential, commercial and industrial expansion in these communities. “This furthej- improvement and expansion of telephone plant will require large amounts of addit­ ional investment money. Good earnings are necessary to attract this money; and adequate rates are essential to proper earnings. That’s why we must raise prices for telephone service. “Telephone service will con­ tinue to be an outstanding bar­ gain,” Beddingfield said. “Prices for it have risen much less than the prices for most other things. The improvement in our North Carolina revenues from rate in­ creases including this one amounts to only three-fourths o'i the in­ crease in the genral cost of liv­ ing during the past ten years, I vice has increased greatly In eacll and the value of telephone ser- community."

The safe had been moved from its original location to near the back door. Also two quarts of milk were found in the back along with some sandwich remains, which indicated that the thieves enjoyed a feast while at work. Various pads were found on the .floor apparently used to deaden the blows in the attempt­ ed safe cracking. Also sometime during this same period, the front show win­ dow of Stratford Jewelry Store was broken with a brick and all the watches, rings and jewelry within an arm’s reach were tak­ en. A few items located at the furtherest point on the display apparently could not be reached. After an inventory, J. C. Little, owner and manager of Stratford’s, set the value of the jewelry taken at $1593 (it was originally esti­ mated at around $2,000). Sheriff G. Alex Tucker, Depu­ ty Ransom Cook, and SBI Agent John Edwards of Elkin immed­ iately began an investigation. They were joined by R. Jim Smith, Mocksville Policeman, who cut short his vacation to return and assist in the investigation. Mr. Smith was not working at the time of the incidents. Arrested in Virginia An alarm was broadcast for the stolen car. Officers in Halifax, Va., arrested Trexler and Camp­ bell in this car late Thursday af­ ternoon. Somewhere along the route the transmission had been damaged to the extent that the car was practically inoperative. Campbell and Trexler waived extradition and were brought back to the local jail Friday by Sheriff Tucker, Deputy Cook and Policeman Smith. Trexler and Campbell both were out of jail on bond for pre­ vious charges of breaking and entering. Trexler had two charg­ es pending against him, one of which was for previously break­ ing into the Ledford Department Store. Campbell was under bond for breaking into the Cooleemee Theatre. Mr. Little announced that jewelry valued at $411 was re­ covered out of the total $1593 taken. Nothing was reported taken from Hall Drug Company or Ledford Department Store.

I MAYBE I’M WRONG BUT — habitated by descendants of the , ,. .. thats the title of a column con-abongines so posterity can see ,^ .... ... . .. .. ... ducted in the Englewood (Colo.) what life was like before the white _A Press by Lyle (Lindy) Linder-man pushed into the American .I smith. In it he lists 10 “facts ofwilderness. Structures of authentic ancient design are- nearing completion, and sometime in August the vill­ age will come alive as Indian men, women, and children move into the compound to carry out an ancient way of life. This “living musucm” was con­ ceived by the Cherokee Historical Association as part of an ever- expanding program to perpetuate the history and traditions of the Cherokee Indians. The village is to be known as “Oconaluftee” ancient Cherokee town that existed four miles west of here and was visited by Will­ iam Bartam in his travels through the Western North Carolina high­ lands in the 18th century. Located on a 40-tcre tract of forested land, the village is only a few hundred yards from Moun­ tainside Treatre, where the great true story of the Cherokee In­ dians is re-created nightly ex­ cept Mondays through Sept. 1, in the internationally acclaimed drama, “Unto These Hills.” The re-created village will complement the Cherokee drama. The village project is being su­ pervised by the Tsali Institute for Cherokee Indian Research, estab­ lished by the Cherokee Historiral Association with the cooperation of the Universities of North Caro­ lina, Tennessee and Georgia. The anthropology departments of these three universities have mapped out digs into sites of old Cherokee towns so that pre-1750 structures and artifacts can be added to the village. The first dig is being carried out this summer at Tulaga, in Georgia, by the Tsali Institute and the University of Georgia. The 1951 North Carolina State Legislature appropriated $25,000 for the erection of the Indian vill­ age with a stipulation that the money would be refunded by the Association over a period of years. Construction on the village was started last winter. The village is encircled by a stockade with required more than 2,000 locust poles. Inside the stockade there are seven structures. They include Indian homes of the 1750 period, a huge seven-sided council house, and an earth-covered sweat house. Bark, river cane, stripped lo­ cust poles and hand-hewn logs were used to re-create the ancient structures. (Continued on Page «) life” taught him during two dec­ ades of newspapering. These are: 1. An editor will never be wealthy unless, of course, he man­ ages to marry adroitly.” 2. “He will never be loved.” 3. “He will seldom be appre­ ciated. ‘That’s his job,’ they say, when an editor knocks himself out aiding some worthwhile com­ munity project.” 4. “He will work long hours.” 5. “He will be bored . . . plenty and often. Not bored with his work, but bored with the stuffed shirts who often get into organizations.” 6. “He will be criticized . . . and it takes mighty little to get fury working full blast against a newspaperman.” 7. “He will receive countless words of advice. 8. “He will have to listen to the worries of everyone.” 9. “He has to meet a dead­ line. If you think that ain’t some­ thing, just try it. Lawyers post­ pone. Merchants get another loan. Stenographers sit on the bosses’ laps. Preachers and teachers ra­ tionalize. Bankers call another board meeting. Government work­ ers take another sick leave. Every­ one procrastinates when facing something unpleasant. But not the poor editor! The deadline comes . . . nothing can stop it.” , 10. “He will be a whipping boy.” All this was promoted in the way of a welcome from Lindy to Don Long, a recent graduate of the University of Colorado, to the community, “You’ll be seeing him,” the vet­ eran editor wrote. “You’ll be read­ ing what he has to say. Some oi you wil be kicking him around.” Before we conclude anything about Mr. Lindersmith, though, consider that he added: “Everything we wrote above is true . . . but there are many compensating things. Usually everyone doesn’t get mad at us at the same time. On the next is­ sue, the former mad ones may be our friends, and our ex-friends may be on the other side. Life is more interesting that way. “Sure, we get bored with the windbags, the credit snatchers, the big shots. But we also are priv­ ileged to work with many, many fine people. There are more o'i them, too.” “We even get osme good out of the free advice. We welcome it, (Continued on Page 5) V . W . W . W . W W W . ' . V . V . W . W A V i V . W . S V . W . ' . W . ’ A V .

MARTIN Program Committee Lightning Safety Important On Farm When lightning strikes — be prepared, warns H. M. Ellis, in charge of agricultural engineer ing work for State College Ex­ tension Service. As summer storm clouds gather on hot hum­ id afternoons, electrical storms begin to take their annual toll. With millions of volts and thou­ sands of amperes spent in a frac­ tion of a second, lightning will destroy or damage any object which tends to resist its passage. The National Safety Council reports that lightning kills 400 people and _ injuries 1,000 others annually and 90 per cent of the fatalities occur in rural areas. It is also a major causo of farm fires, destroying about $20,000,- 000 worth of farm property an­ nually. A system of air terminals and grounded conductors will carry lightning safely to the ground and prevent damage to buildings or contents. Where lightning protection has been installed, cheek the system carefully before the storm season starts, says Ellis. Proper ground­ ing is the most likely to be neg­ lected. It is hidden from view and most easily overlooked. Every fastener or connector is import­ ant, because the performance of the entire system is determined by its weakest link. When installing a new lightn­ ing rod system, secure the coun­ sel and assistance of an exper­ ienced lightning protection man. Get bids and deal with a well- established reputable firm. Poor­ ly installed or maintained systems lead to a sense of false protect­ ion, and become costly with a lightning loss. Mocksville's yearly Masonic picnic is recognized throughout the state as one of thc most thoroughly sound, intelligent and non-partisan charities in exist­ ence.

He presents his grand nephew, Larry Wilson, son of D. C. Wilson, Mocksville, Route 4, with a balloon. Generally, U. S. Farms needs about Your times as much lime and about five times as much superphosphates as they are now getting. Under Secretary of Ag- richsture Clarence J. McCormick says we need four times as much strip-cropping, about five tmes as much green manure and cov­ er lrips, and about 30 tmes as mulh tontour farming as is done OVEN CANNING Oven canning is dangerous re­ gardless of the type of over, jar, cap, or food used. Those who do over canning should be prepared to accept full responsibility in event of food spoilage and jar explosion. CAN FOR THE BABY It's easy to can those baby foods that cost so much in the stores—tomato juice, vegetables, purees, fruit juice, applesauce, etc. All you do is cook the iood in a manner to prevent loss of vita­ mins, put through a fine seive, reheat, pack hot into cans or jars, seal and proccss, as long as when processing the canned product.

A few hou/s after this picture was made, the midway was crowded with eager and excited folks, both young and old. CAMP LEJEUNE MASCOT IS DEAD Marine Sergeant Sir Dusty of Dreadnaught, the 64-pound, sad­ eyed, heavy jowled, English Bull­ dog, official mascot of 55,000 Leathernecks at Camp Lejeune, took the long dusty trail July 20. Loved and respected by many thousands o¥ Marines here since he was officially accepted as the Camp mascot by the then Com­ manding General, Major General Franklin A. Hart, in 1949, Dusty’s ; passing caused a wave of sadness i to sweep across the hase. ' One Marine was reported light- I ing a candle in the Catholic Chapel for the square shouldered canine, and military honors were given Dusty at his burial. Sir Dustry, who died peacsfully in his sleep late Sunday afternoon, July 20, was presented to the Marine Corps by Commander C. A. Fisher of the New River De­ tachment, Marine Corps League, and T. Sgtt. R. F. Casey, vie®- commandant of the detachment on behalf of the local League. He was sworn into the Marine Corps January 20, 1949 as a pri­ vate with due ceremony by 2nd Lt. J. N. Wester. As private Sir Dusty, USMC, the compatible canine was given a physical examination by Com­ mander E. H. Wangclinc, USN, and found "fit for service." The Camp recruiting sergeant started an official Marine Record Book for Sir Dusty with information including a paw print, serial num­ ber AKCN-30261, and listed "next of kin” as the Camp Provost Mar­ shall’s' office, with relationship— “friend." Dusty’s previous civilian em­ ployment was listed as “show dog’ with duties performed includ­ ing “winning first place ribbons" and secondary duties performed as “Watch Bog”—what dogs he watched was not listed, but Dusty was a good Marine. As a matter of fact, Dusty was a lusty pup. Always top-dog, the fur-lined leatherneck as a blend of mock-ferociousness and good- naturedness—in short his bark was worse than his bite. As a pup private Dusty was given 30 days restriction on June 9, 1949, for going AWOL. Through the aid of newspapers in surrounding towns, radio and wire releases, he was apprehend­ ed on Route 3, near Jacksonville, when a farmers wife notified the Military Police of his whereabouts. The cheers have been many for Sir Dusty as he lead the Marine Band at the half time in foot­ ball games. Dusty on off hours had a pen­ chant for sleeping, and a passion­ ate dislike for water hoses which he would growl at, chew, shake, pounce upon and always end up wet. Marine Sergeant Sir Dusty of Dreadnaught w a s well loved throughout the Camp, Some Things That Time Shall Never Change . . . Perhaps in your memory of the earlier Masonic Picnics is dim and the old scenes have given away to the passage of time . . . but surely one thing that will never be erased in the memories of all of us is the friendliness and courtesy that tfas a part and parcel of these early events. Time has wrought fabulous changes. This little affair that started with a handful of people at “The Shoals,” now attracts thousands, and is recognized far and wide. BUT THE THINGS THAT TIME SHALL NEVER CHANGE IS THE SAME OLD FASHIONED FRIENDLI­ NESS AND GENUINE GOOD TIMES THAT ALWAYS PREVAIL AT THE ANNUAL MASONIC PICNICS.

Small Eggs To Begin Appearing On Market A small egg doesn’t necessar­ ily mean an undesirable egg, yet many consumers have shown resistance to buying the small pullet eggs, which will soon be coming to market. However, R. S. Dearstyiie, Hoad of the State College Poultry De­ partment, points out, freshly laid, carefully handled pullet eggs possess high nutritive quality, comparing favorably to larger eggs from older birds. Dearstyne says that pullet eggs should be priced down on a com­ parable basis to large eggs, if the small eggs are to move. The pro­ ducer and the merchant must handle the problem of pricing the eggs in such a way that consum­ er resistance is overcome. For the welfare of the indus­ try, the many pullet eggs that will appear on the market dur­ ing late summer and early au­ tumn must be sold. Market eggs now available can be grouped into three classes: 1. Freshly laid large eggs coming from hens about to go out of production. Good eggs are secured from such birds, but be­ cause of duration of lay, the shell texture is declining in strength and some of these eggs break easily. 2. Eggs coming out of stor­ age. These are usually of high quality when stored but the qual­ ity falls off relative to length of storage and method of treatment. 3. Pullet eggs. When pullets come into production, egg size is usually quite small. It takes about three months for a chick­ en to build its eggs to maximum size. Heredity, diet and manage­ ment are factors affecting the size. DROSS- ~ For converting the dross of tin, lead, codmium, zinc, and an­ timony, a cleaner in the metal pot has been perfected which stabilizes the mixture and pre­ vents loss. Before 1940 about a third of all American-grown tobacco and two- fifths of our cotton was sold for use abroad. i W .'. W V . V . W . W . W A 'A W A V . V . W . W A V . W . V A V !

O'/ Lindy, Mr. Kennedy says fondly, “He’s a scrapper like the old school.

None of the structures have windows. The floors are earthen. Some of the cabins are plastered with red clay. The council house is a large rotunda, capable of accommodat­ ing several hundred persons. It stands in the center of the village. It was here that the Cherokee held their important peace and war councils, where the wise old men of the tribe passed on to the younger members of the tribe the lore and traditions of their race, It was here the ancient ceremon­ ials, handed down through centur­ ies of tribal ritual, were held. And it was here that the sacred fire o'i the Cherokee burned eter­ nally. All around the inside of the council house is a range of cab­ ins or sophas, consisting of two or more steps, one above or be­ hind the other, in theatrical or­ der where the assembly sat. These are covered with woven cane mats. Furnishings for the homes and the council house, such as cane and grass mats, were woven by Indian women and girls here on the Cherokee Reservation. Thc village itself was construct­ ed by Cherokee wornmen. When the village is opened to the public in August, visitors will be able to see how the Cherokee Indians lived 200 years ago. The Indians who live in the village will be dressed in authen­ tic costumes of that period— buckskins and feather capes. These costumes are designed by Mrs. Suzanne Davis, costumei*for “Unto These Hills." Mrs. Davis, who ii with the Dramatics Depart­ ment of the University of North Carolina, is considered one of the nation's outstanding authorities on Cherokee dress. Much of the research for the village structures, the costumes and the household furnishings has been done by Miss Madeline Kne- berg o i the Anthropology Depart­ ment of the University of Tenn­ essee who is a recognized author­ ity not only on Cherokee Indians but all Indian tribes in the South­ east. The Indian families living in the village will project themselves backward into the 18th century. They will all join together to create the atmosphere of ancient village life. Here they will weave cloth, make baskets, chip arrowheads, fashion weapons — spears, bows and arrows, and blowguns. They will heave a community garden where they will grow Indian corn and Indian beans, squash, and other vegetables. The implements they will use will be implements of the 1700’s used by the Chero­ kee. Other activities in the village will include exhibitions of blow- gun shooting, tomahawk throw­ ing, and use of the bow and ar­ row. The families will go about their work just as if they were living without the eyes of others upon them. For every effort will be made to make life in the vill­ age as realistic as possible. Trained Indian guides will con­ duct visitors through the village. C. J. Angell Appliance Co. C. J. Angell Jewelry Mocksville, N.

ENTERPRISE PAGE SEVEN Mechanical Therapy For Highway Patrol Cars Ever wonder where ailing and road weary highway patrol cars go for mechanical therapy? State highway troopers who shove the Patrol’s fleet of Pontiacs, Mer- curys and Fords over the roads never have been accused of baby­ ing them. They can’t always af­ ford to for that matter. However, when their steeds begin to fag out from high speed chases, power turn arounds, and abrupt braking, they can look to help from Upton O. Hocutt of Raleigh, genial sup­ erintendent of equipment main­ tenance i’or the State Highway Patrol. Hocutt, a master auto mechan­ ic for 31 years, is in charge of sev­ en auto repair stations scattered stragetically throughout the state. The Annual Masonic Picnic at Mocksville is a great institution of service to a most worthy cause WE PROUDLY LAUD THIS ENDEAVOR, JUST AS WE PROUDLY ANNOUNCE— W i l l CHANGI ’IM ! ---------------RIPAIR ’IM ! ---------------MOUNT ’IM ! ---------------PILL ’IM !

C ok e ^4sk for it either way... both trade-marks mean the same thing'. Bottled under authority of the Coca-Cola Company by Winston Coca-Cola Botding Co. Each of the stations is well light­ ed, with plenty of tools, machin­ ery and competent mechanics. It's here that troopers bring ■their balky cars for repairs ranging] from minor tune-ups to complete1 overhauls. I For Hocutt and his men' trans­ missions are their biggest head­ ache. He insists there’s never been a highway patrolman who lets his car come to a complete stop before shifting into reverse. The penalty for this sometimes necessary maneuver, Hocutt point­ ed out, is chipped gear teeth and a variety of other transmission troubles. Starting and stopping, hasty turn arounds, and general hard usage keep from GO to 70 cars in Hoentt’s garages every day. Most of them are there for minor repairs—broken glass, body dents and scratches, bad brakes, tires and the like. Wrecked cars arc surveyed ruefully by the me­ chanics and are sent either to the junk yard or to privately own­ ed heavy duty shops. “Actually,” Hocutt explained, “it's cheaper and a whole lot safer to junk such cars. In a pinch, however, we can re-build I them, right from the ground up.” They leave such specialized tasks as frame straightening and front end alignment to the privately owned garages. Each of the repair shops employs experts in wiring, glass and body work. Tire mileage might surprise you. Although, of course, it depends on the treatment they get from the driver, most patrol cars will have tires replaced at eight to ten thousand miles. Some will ’ Set up to 30,000 miles, just about maximum for any tire. Hocutt uses a variety of makes, refusing to single out any favorite. And the same goes for batteries. Hocutt and his men do not use heavy duty batteries, incidentally. This will probably disappoint the private citizen, most of whom regards the car’s radio as a ter- riffic load puller. “HD batteries,” Hocutt explains, “would not be worth the extra expense. They furnish only about two hours of stand-by service, which is to say, they hold up, without charging, only a little longer than the less expensive standard battery.” He did say, however all cars are equipped with a heavy duty 40- amp generators, adequate to power the car’s electrical system, two-way radio, red flashing light, nnd the siren. Those sirens cost tho state from $25 to $30 and are bought from the Sireno Corporation and Fed­ eral Laboratories of New York. They are always installed under the hood and up near the fire­ wall. Why? “So we can salvage them in the event of a head-on crash,” Hocutt wryly comments. Other equipmentt installed by Hocutt’s mechanics include seat covers ,a heater, state seals on both doors, and a red light. Any other accessories, spotlights for example, are added at the patrol­ man’s personal expense. Engine heating problems are plaguing the repair force as sum­ mer hits its peak. Cracked blocks are common, but fortunately most of them can be repaired. Hocutt uses a complex patching tech­ nique to solve this battleneck, with a minimum of junked en­ gines as the happy result. Ordinary maintenance of the cars is left up to individual patrol­ men. It’s their job to have their car greased, washed and serviced at regular intervals. But other persistent and irritating defects —bad brakes, engine troubles, cracked gless, dents and scratches, dead radios, and the like—are forthwith repaired by Hocutt and, his mechanics. \ W W m \ \ W V W / A V A V . , .V A F U W i V V W .

These men are busy ahead of time locating speakers for the program, securing food lor the dinner, and making all ar­ rangements necessary for com­ pletion of the details of the picnic. Short sketches of each of these chairmen tell us why these men have been chosen for their par­ ticular appointment. C. ATLAS SMOOT C. Atlas Smoot joined the lo­ cal Masonic Lodge in December, 1944. Since that time he has served in many important offi­ ces, attaining the chair of Master of the Lodge in 1949. During the past two years he has served on the Refreshment Committee as vice-chairman. This year he will serve as chairman of this import­ ant committee. As chairman of the Refresh­ ment Committee, it will be the responsibility of Mr. Smoot and his fellow committee members to supervise the purchase, sale and distribution of all the soft drinks, ice cream and other refreshments for the 72nd Annual Masonic Pic­ nic. This committee is one of the largest ,and the members do­ nate their time dispensing the refreshments on picnic day that go so far in making the picnic such a success, both in enjoy- ment-and -financially;------ - -— JACOB STEWART Jacob Stewart, truly a master mason when it comes to planning Masonic Picnic programs, wears the badge of Masonary given its members for 50 years. Mr. Stew­ art joined the local lodge in 1889. From that time u ntil 1917 he served as assistant program chair­ man, working with T. B. Bailey, chairman during that time. Since 1917 Mr. Stewart has assumed the responsibility of the program Tor the picnic. Ilis duties are heavy for upon this committee depends the success of tho planned pro gram for the day. Mr. Stewart has missed only one picnic since he joined the lodge and that was when he had legal business in Omaha, Nebraska, and E. P. Bradley served for him. Ke states that he looks forward to the picnics with more deep pleasure than any other event during the year. J. K. SHEEK J. K. Sheek has been a mem­ ber of the Masonic Lodge since June 20, 1919. For the past four years he has served as General Chairman of the Annual Picnic. Possessed with great organiza- tional ability Mr. Sheek is the coordinator of the efforts of the various committees of fellow Masons. For the 72nd Annual Masonic Picnic, Mr. Sheek has appointed capable committee chairmen, who are' planning for the best affair Davie County Masons have had during the past 70 years of this historic event. the Annual Masonic Picnic. For the past 11 years he has been chairman of the important Dinner and Tables Committee.

Mr. Morris states he served about 36 years on that committee. Thc business of advertising the picnic is one of the most import­ ant posts. The picnic, an event in which Masons and the people of Davie County and surrounding territory take a well deserved pride, must be publicized each year through all the known chan­ nels. He and his committee are busy getting this charitable in­ stitution beTore thc public in this area. Picnic Committee Chairmen C. H. TOMLINSON, Chm. CURTIS PRICE, Chm.

DR. R. P. ANDERSON Dr. R. P. Anderson has been a member of the local Masonic mittee since 1903. It is the duty of this committee to look after the comforts or needs ofthe sing­ ing class of Oxford Orphanage, from the time they arrive in Mocksville until they depart. Dr. Anderson reports that he and Mrs. Anderson in the early days personally cared for the entire Orphanage Class, teacher manager and all, which in those days amounted to about a total of 16 people. These people usu­ ally came by train or hack and stayed overnight. Seven or eight trunks had to handled to and from the railroad station. Im­ provements were continually made and with the coming of the automobile, the task became somewhat easier. GEORGE ROWLAND George Rowland joined the Masonic Lodge in August, 1927, at Ware Shoals, S. C., and trans­ ferred his membership to the lo­ cal lodge in December of 1940. Mr. Rowland served as Master of the Masonic Lodge at Ware Shoals, First Picnic Held at The' Shoals, 1878 Regardless of what the Annual Masonic Picnic means to the aver­ age person, it means more to the few remaining who were in at­ tendance at the first picnic. At the 72nd Annual Masonic Picnic on August 14th, John N. Ijames of Mocksvillc may attend and keep up his record of having attended everyone since the pic­ nics were started at the Shoals in 1878. W. F. Stonestreet and Col. Jacob Stewart, are other Da­ vie citizens who attended that first picnic. First Pienle - These gentlemen recall how these annual picnics first started. A group from the Oxford Orphan­ age under the direction of Super­ intendent J. H. Mills used to give concerts in thc Presbyterian Church and the Mocksville Lodge always made a contribution to the upkeep of the orphans. Captain W. A. Clement, who was a member of the entertain­ ment committee for thc group on May 11, 1877, proposed the ques­ tion of having a picnic and giv­ ing the proceeds to the Oxford Orphange. So Captain Clement was appointed along with Rev. T. A. Boone and T. B. Bailey to make arrangements with other Masonic Lodges of the county to sponsor a picnic. The Shoals The. first picnic was held at the Shoals (where Cooleemee is now located), with the other Masonic Lodges of thc county, Jerusalem a'nd Farmington, cooperating, on June 24, 1877, ■*, All of tho citizens of Davie County cooperated heartily with the Masons in making these early picnics a success. The managing: of these affairs has always becrt kept non - sectarian. It is inter­ esting to note that almost every picnic committee, including the one appointed in 1877, has had one member from each of tho I three prominent religious denom­ inations in the county. Although the equipment for the entertainment was very lim­ ited at the Shoals when compared with the picnic midway of today, the picnic was one of the high spots of the year for people. Instead of the large dinner arbor as is in use now, in the early days they used a long table with a rope stretched around it. Only those who had bought dinner tickets were allowed to come in­ side the rope. Entertainment Lacking the merry - go - round lerris wheel, side shows, etc., that we have today, the young people at the Shoals went'boat­ ing. Another one of the features o'i the early picnic was the ex­ cursion train that was chartered by the Masons in 1892. This train ran from Winston-Salem until it was discovered that the picnic train had become a competitor in the sale of drinks and other com­ modities, so it was abandoned. Watermelon sales also were another of the outstanding fea­ tures of those early picnics. In 1906 a morning picture show grossed $44.24 for the picnic and a morning baseball game brought in $57. Clement Grove In the early years the Masons were given the use of the picnic grounds by Herbert Clement. In 1897 it was decided to buy the grounds of five acres from Mr. (Cw ttww i « P*C* t) Curtis Price became a member of the Masonic Lodge in 1935. This year he is chairman of the important Basket Committee. Mr. Price has written letters to many Davie citizens asking them for Lodge for 50 years, joining in .1902. He has a record of various offices held in the local lodge at various times. Dr. Anderson hes served as chairman of the Orphans Com- S. (J,, during ibiitj.

HENRY DAVIS ' Probably more than half the i people now living in Davie Coun- j ty do not know of the arrannge- j ment of our mail service prior to the year 1900. Before that date every thickly settled section of Davie had a post office. From about 1900 to 1906 the present Rural Mail Service sprung up, after which most of our post of­ fices were discontinued. During this writer’s tenure of office at 'Fork, which included two periods of postinastershipa, totaling 16 years, I obtained a history of every post office that has existed in Davie County. First I asked for the History of my own office, Fork, and then I continued to ask for the histories o'i other offices until I had obtained a history of ; every one of them—36 post offi-, ' ces in all. j It was found from the records I furnished by the Post Office De­ partment that the first post of­ fice in Davie County was Mocks Old Field, established March 17, 1810, with Basil Gaither as Post­ master. At that time Mocks Old Field was in Rowan County. The i record says that the name was changed to Mocksville about 1826, but the exact date is not given. Archibald G, Carter was post­ master when Mocks Old Field ! was changed to Mocksville. The present postmaster, Miss Daisy Holthouser, is the 23rd postmaster at Mocksville. : The second post ofifce in Davie I County was Fulton, established Dec. 14, 1822, with Joseph Hanes as postmaster. The first postmast' ( er served many years, or until Sept. 7 1847, when Lewis C. Hanes took over. The laat postmaster at Fulton was Miss Sallie T. Hanes, who retired with the discontinu­ ance of the post office May 4,1892. Miss Hanes lives in Mocksville and is one of Davie’s well known and honored citizens. The third post office to be es­ tablished in Davie was County Line, established in 1818 with An- ^ drew Griffin at postmaster.. The | last postmaster there was Mary | T. Lowery, who retired with the ! discontinuance of the office, May | 31, 1906. There were 17 postmast- ■ ers at County Line. The fourth post office in Davie , County was Smith Grove, estab- | lished in 1834, with Isham P. Ellis as postmaster. The last post- I master at Smith Grove was Sallie i A. Osborne, who retired with the discontinuance of the office, Sept. 29, 1906. There were 17 postmast­ ers at Smith Grove. I The fifth post office in Davie was Farmington, established May ; 1, 1837, with George W. John­ son as Postmaster. There have been 15 postmasters at Farming­ ton since 1837 and Elsie C. James was the last postmaster mention­ ed by these government records. I am preparing a more elabor­ ate article on postmasters in Da­ vie, with all aprticulars of the history of every one of the 36 post offices. Below is the list of names alphabetically arranged, of the 36 post offices: Advance, Augusta, Bailey, Bend, Bixby, Calahaln, Cana, County Line, Coratzer, Cooleemee, Clarks­ ville, Duchman, Dulins, Elbaville, Ephesus, Farmington, Felix, Flor­ ence, Fork, Fork Church, Fulton, ■Halls Ferry, Holmans, Jerusalem, Kappa, KurSees, Mocksville, Nest­ or, Neta, Pino, Redland, Smith Grove, Selena, Sheffield, Tenny­ son, Wells. Besides the change- of Mocks Old Field to Mocksville, there were a couple other changes, Sel­ ena was changed to Bailey, these being the tow names of a post office at what is now known as Center, three miles west of Mocksville. For, when first eS' taablished was Fork Church. This writer is aware of the original sites of all the post offi [ ces, except Neta with Mrs. Hattie C.

A hay crop at least as large as last year’s record of 108.5 million tons appears likely. And for the country as a whole, pasture con­ ditions in June were rated rela­ tively high. Sugar from last year’s sugar cane and sugar beet crops in the continental United States total­ ed 1,970,000,600 tons, raw value. This compares with 2,567,000 tons from the 1950 crops. About 330,000 fewer workers were employed on farms in 1951 than in 1950. Indications are that the average number of workers on farms in 1952 will be even smaller.

Perhaps a few can remember back to the time when the first picnic was held a t' The Shoals, and when it first moved to Clem­ ent Grove. Today it has lost much of its similarity to the pic­ nic in those days. If we can to­ day imagine ourselves suddenly carried back to a time when there were no good roads, no automo­ biles, no telephones, radios, nor moving pictures, one can get a better idea of the thrill that was gotten out of looking forward from one year to the next to the one really big day.

Miss Brown recalls attend­ ing the first picnic at the Shoals when she was a child. Since then she has attended everyone with the possible exception of one. Miss Kate recalls that on one picnic she invited company to attend. They arrived early picnic day and Miss Kate sent them on to Clement Grove. They were to return a lfttle later and get her. However, after she had gotten herself ready to attend her “company” returned completely exhausted and did not wish to return to the picnic grounds. Of course being a gracious hostess, Miss Kate did not insist and thus remained with them. “This was the only picnic day that I ever missed,” says Miss Kate, “and I don't consider it my fault.” Renown State Personalities At The Picnic Since 1930 THE MERRY-GO-ROUND ferris wheel, and all popular riding devices, plus the usual midway ‘features are always popular at the annual Masonic Picnics.

Later when the railroad was extended there were excursions from Charlotte and Salisbury.

A few came in :buggies and surreys. A fewpbl'evybd and surreys. The line kept up until about 10 o’clock with scarce­ ly room between them to cross the street. Around four in the afternoon they began to leave for their homes. People from the different sections of the county did not see one another until the next second Thursday in August unless perchance a circus came to town.

Time marches on ond many changes have occured since those early days. Many attractions have been added to make the pic­ nic a more enjoyable affair. How­ ever, it is very doubtful if the youngsters of today and the old­ er people too, for that matter, en­ joy it as much as. it was enjoyed back in its early days. WORDS TO REMEMBER “The greatest security against the introduction of corrupt prac­ tices and principles into our gov­ ernment, which can be relied on in practice, is to make the con­ tinuance of administration depend on their keepink the public ex­ penses down to a minimum.” — Thomas Jefferson (1804). An impressive array of widely known and talented speakers have graced the platform of the an­ nual Masonic Picnic since 1930. In the background behind all of these programs stand Colonel Jacob Stewart, the sage o'i the Masonic Picnics. The Colonel has served as chairman of the Pro­ gram Committee for many years, and has always managed to ob- taoin intersting and talneted per­ sonalties to deliver the annual ad dress. Below are brief summaries of the picnic from 1930 to date. In addition to the program mention­ ed, all are familiar with the annual appearance of a class from Oxford Orphanage. Also in the early 30's, the Cooleemee band provided music, giving away later to the high school band. 52nd Annual Masonic Picnic The 52nd Annual Masonic Pic- nis was held on Thursday, August 14, 1930. This day was character ized by extremely hot weather, but this did not deter the ottend- ance nor the enjoyment Dr. E. R.

Then if you fellows can suck as hard as you can blow you will have it a seaport inside half an hour.” “By the time a woman knows enough to select the right mate, she’s probably been married for years."

It isn’t often that a group or event grows in spite of itself. More often it is the result of a lot of plann­ ing and hard work. ----------------------•----------------------- That’s the way is has been with the MASONIC PICNIC. In 1865 a group of public spirited Masons got together and took stock of needs, made some plans and went to work. Since that time this Annual Masonic Picnic has been growing and is rapidly becoming one of the biggest events in the State. But the plan isn’t complete, this event will continue to grow be­ cause of the enthusiasm and de­ termination that transformed early plans into reality. S. S. SHORT, Jr. Gate Committee J. J.

DEPUTIES PACE AS STORK SCRATCHES Several members of the Davie County Sheriff’s department ner­ vously paced the floor Friday night. From the jail came the wails of a woman seemingly in anguish. This women, confined earlier that night for drunken-aness, reported that she was in a race with the stork . . . that she was expecting to increase her family most any moment. "Call the doctor again”, said one of the deputies. “We can’t let' the baby be born in jail.” "We've already called the doc­ tor,” said another. "He should be here most any minute." The deputies continued to pace the floor and the wails continue incessantly. An automoble pulls to a stop find out steps a local doctor who is immediately rushed, to the woman.

Two Collisions At . “Suicide Crossing” The failure of cars on highway 64 to stop, continues to be the cause of accidents at "Suicide' Crossing,” in Mocksville. This crossing was the scene of two' wrecks this past week end. For­ tunately no one was seriously in­ jured. Friday afternoon a 1946 Ford coupe, driven by John Ed Cook, 18, of Bakersville, Rt. 1, head­ ing west on highway 64, crossed highway 601 in the path of a truck owned by the Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company of Salisbury. This truck, loaded with a popu­ lar brand of 'beer, collided with the right rear of the car and continued into a ditch on the right side of the road. The car, after being struck, swerved and came to a stop after hitting a wall surrounding a house. The truck was driven by Harold Alexander Sides, 29, of Salisbury. Paul Cook, a brother of the driv­ er, was an occupant of the car. No one was injured. Damage of around $200 was estimated for the car, and damage of $40 to the truck. Highway Patrolman L. E. Green investigated the accident and charged Cook with failure to yield right of way. The second accident involved three cars and occured around 8:50 a.m. Sunday morning. , A 1951 Chevrolet, being driv­ en by Mrs. Lelia Edna York, 37, of Tarboro, N. C., heading East on highway 64, ran blinker light into path of another car. This- car, 1949 Plymouth Coach, driv­ en by Paul Foster Dwiggins, 35, Mocksville, Rt. 4, collided with the left rear of the Chevrolet causing the car to get out of con­ trol and rammed into the front end of a car that had stopped waiting for the trafic to clear (A 1949 Ford driven by Thurmond Lee Gallimore, 20, of Thomas­ ville). The impact of striking the Galli­ more car threw Mrs. York out of the Chevrolet onto the pavement. The Chevrolet, without a driver, continued down a slight embank­ ment across a field into a tree behind the residence of Mrs. Max- alene Holman. Mrs. York suffered several Bruises and lacerations ,but was not seriously injured. Damage to the Dwigins and Gallimore cars was estimated at around $300 each. The car driven by Mrs. York, although with considerable body damage, was able to be driv­ en away. Highway Patrolman T. J. Bad- gett investigated the accident. Charges were preferred against Mrs. York. Local Scouts Receive Awards The Boy Scout Court of Honor held Tuesday evening at the Mocksville Rotary Hut presented awards to ten local scouts of Troop 575.

BOWMAN..............................Publishers GORDON TOMLINSON..................................................................Editor Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, J87» Why Worry? (Editor’s Note—The author of this bit of reasoning is unknown. It is reprinted here for whatever value it may be). There are only two reasons for worry: Either you are successful or you are not successful. If you are successful there are two things to worry about. If you are not successful there is nothing to worry about. Your health is either good or you are sick. If your health is good there is nothing to worry about. If you are sick there are only two things to worry about. You are going to get well or you are going to die. If you are going to get well there is nothing to worry about. If you are going to die there are two things to worry about. You are either going to Heaven or you are .not going to Heaven. And if you are going to Heaven there is nothing to worry about. If you are going to the other place you’ll lie so busy shaking hands with old friends you won’t have time to worry. So, Why Worry? Editorial Briefs There are two ways of getting through the 'world, one is to stop thinking, and the other is to stop and think. Be generous with your dignity, said Emerson—give your neighbor a chance to laugh at you now and then; it helps both. Methuselah lived. 969 years, but nothing happened; Jesus lived 33 years, and all life is deeper, richer, fairer. Some men do more by their failures than other men do by their successes; it is what we live for that counts. No matter what we may profess, our real good is what we value most, live for, and make supreme in our lives. It is probably easier for great men to do great things than it is for little men to do the little things. Bitter wit is the sour acid by which some men eat their way out of the cocoon of the common-place and live. Only poets can express the greatest truths, because they have the power of suggesting more than words can say. To be educated, said Milton, is “to be fitted justly, skill­ fully, magnanimously to perform every office of life.” W hat I want Is a Coke Your thirst calls for some kind of refreshment... your taste tells you to be sure it’s ice-cold Coca-Cola.

Dear "Editor: Customarily, when a minister, of the Gospel utters apublic state- j ment on a matter of general inter­ est, his words are given full ere-1 dence and are accepted as true. by his readers because of the re- J liable character of their source,1 and this is as it should be. I But when a propagandist j preacher, whose mind seems ob­ sessed with the single idea that he is the sole protector of public; morals, breaks into print with a declaration that is patently and palpolily untrue, his words must be spurned, scorned and rejected by honest men and women. In the issue of Cooleemee Jour­ nal of July 31, 1952, the follow - owing excerpt appeared over the name o'i “G. W. Fink, Chairman, United Dry Forces:” “What has legal beer really done for Davie County? It has increased crime of diiVerent kinds to such an extent that at all reg- lar Courts they cannot come near trying the cases, and even after holding special terms of Court then they have not been able to try all the cases. I well remember some years past be­ fore beer had soaked thc heads of so many, and made alcoholics out of so many, when regular term courts came along at times there were no cases to try and Court was dismissed." The foregoing statement is ab­ solutely untrue, fundamentally, basically and finally in its entire­ ty. No once within the memory of the oldest living person in Da­ vie County has a local term of Superior Court for the trial of criminal cases been cancelled or “dismissed” for the lack of a suf­ ficient docket. For the first time in more than 30 years a special term of Superior Court was held last January for the purpose of clearing a docket heavily burdened with minor misdemeanors, that .could have been disposed of in a recorder’s] court had there been one. Since there is no intermediary court between that of a justice of peace and the Superior Court, all of­ fenses beyond the jurisdiction of the ‘former must be tried in thc latter ,and inasmuch as there are but two one-week terms of court each year (one in March and the Iother in August) the criminal ( docket unavoidably becomes con- J gested with an accumulation of cases that can not be heard in a one-week session ;hence the neces­ sity of numerous continuances. The vast majority of cases ap­ pearing on the criminal docket at each term of Superior Court re­ lates to traffic violations, such as speeding, reckless driving, driving without license, operating a motor vehicle while under the influense of liquor and other re­ lated traffic offenses, none of which has any conection with beer in any manner whatsoever. Mr. Fink’s long chain o'i letters to the Editor has been marked by a wanton and reckless disre­ gard for existing facts. Deliberate deception seems to be his forte— a shameful example for a preach­ er to set before the youth of the County. But, if Mr. Fink, as Chair­ man of United Dry Forces, cares to pursue this subject further, let’s urge him to deal honestly with the public and confine his remarks to fhe TRUTH. Sincerely yours, ROBERT S. McNEILL. own sentiments. It was reported that at least one man denied writ­ ing the article with his name signed to it, but admitted that he signed he article.

The mystery of the flying sau­ cers was solved in the early hours of Monday morning by a former Davie County man . . . that is, solved to his satisfaction. The men that solved this mystery that is currently baffling all sections of the United State3 was Harley S. Walker, now residing at 3434 Konoak Drive in Winston-Salem. The story begins on Sunday mbrning when Mr. Walker read an article in the Winston-Salem Journal entitled: “Stooting Stars Replace Saucers As Center of In­ terest in the Sky." This article stated that the annual August "Shooting Stars" would reach their peak that night (Sunday) from 10 p.m until- daybreak. Mr. Walker decided to view this celestial show. He stated that he sat on his porch steps from 10 p.m. until 12 Sunday night and saw several of the shooting stars. At midnight, he decided to take a short nap and view the heavens again early in the morning. Around 4 a.m., Mr. Walker states he awoke and resumed his vigil of watching. He stated that in looking about the sky he spott­ ed an unusual looking object that in many ways resembled a “fly­ ing saucer,” according to the ac­ counts he had read. Watching this object intently, he said it appear­ ed to grow larger, as if it was coming nearer. The longer he watched it, the more certain he became that it was a flying saucer. He decided to call someone else as a witness to this phenomena. He arose from his seat on the steps and started in the house. Looking back in the direction he had seen the “fly­ ing saucer’ 'he found that it had disappeared. He returned to his soat»on the steps and in a short while this object once again re­ turned into his focus. With a little experimenting, it did not take Mr. Walker long to solve the mystery. The “flying saucer” he was viewing was noth­ ing more than a reflection" of light from a neighbor’s television aerial. "I can now join the distinctive club of individuals that believe CORNATZER Lindsay Frye who has been ill at her home here is mudi.im-: proved. Mr. and Mrs. Brady Barney have moved into their recently constructed home. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Smith have recently moved into the home which was formerly occu­ pied by Mr. and Mrs. Brady Bar­ ney.

In preparing the annual Mason­ ic Picnic edition an article was selected to be published because it so clearly related the trials and tribulations ot newspapering life. This article entitled: “Editor de­ lates Facts ot Newspapering Life” appeared on the front page of the Masonic Picnic issue. It concerned a column conducted in the Engle­ wood (Colorado) Press by Lyle (Lindy) Lindersmith. A fact unknown to the editors at the time the article was pub­ lished was that Mr. Lindersmith is a brother-in-law of Dr. Clyde W. Young of Mocksville Mr. Linder smith is married to Dr. Young's oldest sister.

FRANK CLEMENT There comcs a time in the life of every individual and organi­ zation, when an inventory, a checking-up whether good or bad must be taken. That time comes annually in July, for your Public Library. This year has ben a most grat- -Hytitg—one—as—rt—moved—aiorigr Then the time comes to put the results, the sum total on paper, and inevitably there is the ques­ tioning, "maybe it could have been better.” However, the sights for the Davie County Public Li­ brary are set so high, that any­ thing short of a favorable com­ parison with Rowan, Fnrsyth, Mecklenburg will always leave room for speculation. I During the year a Branch Li-j brary for the Negroes was inaug-| uratcd. The collection which is shelved with the Public School Library, started with 367 volumes. The use of these books has not been all that was hoped for, there j probably is an answer for that, since the room used is also a class room. Lot it bs said, our Negra( citizens really apperciato having j a library and given time, the; need for and use will grow. The, teacher in charge visited the coun-1 ty librarian after school closed, j The purpose of her visit was to express her thanks and that of tho 'faculty for their Branch Li­ brary and to dispel any doubt of the usefulness. There is a catalogue with every book cata­ logued with author and title cards set up in their library. This col­ lection of books will be added to periodically. Begining with last September, there has been a regular book- mobilo librarian, Mrs. Everette Ttchison. Mrs. Etchison is liter­ ally covering the county with books, and planning her routes' to meet as many book-minded, as is possible. It is anticipated that an extra day each month will be given to bookmobile work this coming year. | When tho Grand Jury made its inspection at last term of court, we were given a flattering citq- ] tion. “Badly in need or room,' well kept piece of property, do­ ing a magnificicnt job, recom­ mend that—" All of which sounds good, but! We are living, hoping, praying for the day when the li­ brary is adequately housed, prop­ erly equipped, and can give “the maanificient service" which is its i right. j The book stock of the library| has grown until some kind of catalogue was ncccssary. Conse­ quently, tho librarian is working on Author and Title cards for every book. To date, all fiction has been catalogued and approxi­ mately . half of the non-fiction. Borrowers are finding this very helpful in their choice of mater­ ials. Reference work is one of the most exciting and satisfying items connected with a library. It is appreciated that more and more of our citizens are asking for this type of information. _.The_I,oan system of North Car­ olina Library Commission extends the use of local libraries into prac­ tically every field. The source of a small rural library arc natur­ ally limited, but within a matter o i days ,the book, article, pam­ phlet desired can be obtained from the Commission. During the past year 49 such loans were made to our county. Just plain figures and statistics are never glamorous, but they are revealing and here is where arithmetic comes* into its own, sowing in this instance that Da­ vie County Public Library has grown along all linos. This li­ brary was organized in the win­ ter of 1943, below are given some comparative figures for 1948 and 1952. 1943 1952 Registered borrowers 29G 2420 Circulation ........... 7057 52,100 Appropriations: Book Stock ................. 82 7598 County ..................... $400 Town .................................. $7.50 County .............................. $1805 Hours Open ...............14 27 Relative to book stock of 1943: During that year, several hundred books were borrowed from the Commission, all of which were re­ turned as the county built up its book stock. The figures for circulation do not tell the whole story. When books are loaned to Home Demon­ stration clubs, or other clubs, or­ ganizations, no record of borrow­ ers is kept. These clubs have in­ creased the interest and use of the library in a most substantial way.

If we could see many naked, hungry, sickly children of alco­ holics, crying to us for help, I say how could we sleep, knowing that we had invested our vote for it with hope of material gain, re­ gardless of amount we should get. Hear what Jesus said about the money worshipper: “St. Luke 12:16-21, Take your Bibles and read this now please.’’ I love the person that makes liquor in all of its forms, the pci'-' son who sells it, the person that drinks it, and the one woh votes for it, and I pray that God have mercy upon all who continue to blindly go on in such ways.

It could have been just one ofthose many amusing and odd incidents which human be­ ings are so aften becoming en­ tangled, and it was .... Bobby Robertson, formerly of Bixby, and his wife were living in a first floor apartment in the city of High Point. Recently Mr. Roberston had to be away for the week end and so his wife went to stay with her sister in Greens­ boro leaving the apartment va­ cant. They planned to return to High Point on Sunday. However, Mr. Robertson return­ ed from the trip a little sooner than he expected. Since it was late Saturday night he decided to spend the night in his apartment and go for his wife the next morning. Going to the apartment, Mr. Robertson, without a key, was unable to gain entrance by either the front or back door. Going to the bedroom window which was low to the ground, he cut the screen enough to unlock it. As he attempted to crawl in this window, someone in his apart­ ment gave him a push. He tried again and received a still harder shove. Since it was his apart­ ment, Mr. Robertson was deter- minded to enter and so with much effort got one leg over the win­ dow ledge and a good hold of the inside assailant. The person in­ side was also determined and sank a set of good teeth into Mr. Rob­ ertson’s arm, bringing forth llow of blood. This only served to in­ tensify the scrap to more serious proportions. Then on came the lights. There stood the two warriors staring unbelievably at one an­ other. One of course was Mr. Rob­ ertson, the other his good friend and apartment neighbor. It seems that his neighbor had unexpected guests. Knowing that the Robertson’s were away and wouldn't mind, the neighbor and wife moved across the hall to sleep. Of course the neighbor only took natural action when some­ one started crawling in the bed­ room window. After profuse apologies and ex­ planations by all parties concern­ ed satisfactory arrangements were effected. The couple returned to bed, Mr. Robertson slept on the studio couch, and as far as Clyde Studevant, 1 lo t....... 28.80 John Obie Wilson, % lot.... 24.82 Jacob VanEaton, 1 lo t....... 12.48 SUE BROWN, City Tax Collector Motor Vehicles Are Deadly Weapons By J. R. WATERS Highway Safety Representative A few short years ago accidents with automobiles involved were numerous, but not so deadly. To­ day the ratio of personal injury to fatal injury is about 10 to 1. n 1950 it was 15 to 1. This means that today more people are be­ ing killed and fewer personal in­ juries reported. Can we blame this on the drivers or the vehicles they drive? It seems that most vehicles are safer than they have been in the past. True there are many more vehicles on our highways, but we also have more and better roads. Driving conditions aver­ age about the same each year so this can not be a great factor in fatal accidents. Every driver, pedestrian and bike rider must regard the car as a deadly weapon. It can kill or maim a person just as quickly as a loaded gun. What chance doesj a 150 pound pedestrian treveling; at four miles per hour have against a 3,000 pound car going at a speed of 60 miles per hour? Also when two cars traveling at 50' miles per hour strike each other,1 it is like driving off a 12 story building, not much chance there for a person to survive. We should regard the highway! as a danger zone, each vehicle J as a deadly weapon if they arei in the hands of the careless driv-j er. The best bet is to always be! alert, take it easy on the high­ way; keep your vehicle in safe condition and not take chances while driving. For a happy day,' drive the safe way. ©© © m m ©©©© ©© © ©© © <59 © © ©©©©©©© m© ©© © MOCKS The W. S. C. S. held their monthly meeting with Mrs. P. R. Carter. There were 15 members present.

Remember . . . can be determined—all went well for the remainder of the night. Davie County and Mocksville have received $57,866.46 in beer taxes since 1947. That means your taxes have been reduced by that amount! Without legal sale of beer the county and town tax rate MUST GO HIGHER! Legal beer will be carried into Davie County and Mocksville—and we will lose our right to tax it. The tax money will go to surrounding counties—and our taxes will go up! Does that make good sense?

C., THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1952 The County New» For Everybody”No. 19 Telephone Co-op Officials State Progress Being Made Co-op President Issues Statement On Progress The problem of inter-connec- tion between the Yadkin Valley Telephone Membership Corpora­ tion and existing companies is now in the process of deliberation by the parties involved, according lo a release made public this week by James M. Parks, Presi­ dent of the co-op. Mr. Parks be­ lieves that the solution to these inter-connecting problems is im­ minent, but will require addit­ ional time to fully resolve. The complete text of thc re­ lease from Mr. Parks is as foll­ ows: "It is understanable why some of the rural people in Yadkin and Davie Counties who have signed up for telephone servicc with the Yadkin Valley Telephone Mem­ bership Corporation have become impatient of the delay in getting construction started on the rural telephone project. The telephone companies providing local and long distance service to Yadkin­ ville and Mocksville are cooper­ ating with the Yadkin Valley Telephone Membership Corpora­ tion to resolve the problems aris­ ing from the development of tel­ ephone service in the rural areas of Yadkin and Davie Counties. A shortage of materials for the con­ struction of telephone facilities has been a major problem for the telephone companies and the. co­ operative and still is a problem. Several plans for inter-connect­ ion of the Yadkin Valley system with conecting commercial com­ panies have been considered. Such \plans must be submitted to state regulatory bodies for their con­ sideration. These problems are so complex that considerable time is necessarily involved in reach­ ing a final decision.” “It now appears that a solution to these inter-connecting prob- (Continued on Page I) WITHIN THE LAW A man carefully nursed a popcorn box as he weaved in and out among)the crowd on the midway at the Masonic Pic­ nic last Thursday. Ever so often he appeared to leave the area and return, but always clutch­ ing that popcorn box. Officers becoming suspicious asked for some popcorn. Open­ ing the box, a pint bottle of bonded and taxpaid liquor was found, with the seal still un­ broken. However, there was nothing the officers could do. The m u, believed to be a resident of Rowan County, was violating no law. The popcorn box pre­ vented the charge of display­ ing of liquor in a public plhce. With a pint of taxpaid liquor, with the seal unbroken, the pos­ session was not Illegal. So all the officers could do was to let him go aad attempt to catch him in the act of sell­ ing, which of course was a most difficult task since there is no law against selling popcorn. Officers Seize More Liquor More white liquor was uncov­ ered in Davie County last week by . officers of the Sheriff's • de partmcnt. In the house of Ezra Cain on Mocksville, Rt. 2, Sheriff Tucker and deputies found a half gallon of white liquor, and two jars partly filled. The liquor was se creted under the sink and in a box in the house. Cain posted a $300 bond for appearance at the August term of court. Assisting Sheriff Tucker in this raid were Deputies Ran' some Cook, Dallas Winters, Leon­ ard Howard and Wade Groce. CAR CLIPS POLE IN WRECK SUNDAY A 1941 Dodge conch went out of control around 1:05 a.m. Sun­ day and clipped off a power pole on highway 64 west, near the intersection of the Sheffield road. A live wire fell across the high­ way and tied up traffic for over 90 minutes. The car, heading towards Mocksville, was driven by Icom Jeffries of Knoxville, Tenn. He was accompanied by his wife and two children. Highway Patrolman T. J. Bad- gett investigated the accident and reported according to information obtained by him, Mr. JeTfries was seized with a sick or fainting spell at the time the car left the highway. Mr. Jeffries suffered cuts and bruises and received treatment from a local doctor. His wife and children were not injured. The power pole fell across the car damaging it to the extent that Evening Crowds Again Feature Masonic Picnic Picnic Gate Receipts Total Around $1923 Preliminary figures released by J. K. Sheek, General Chairman for the 72nd Annua] Masonic Picnic held at Clement Grove last Thursday, indicates that the event may gross around $7500. The various picnic committees are scheduled to meet Thursday night at which time the final report will be made. Mr. Sheek expressed apprecia­ tion and thanks to all those- who contributed to make the 72nd Annual Picnic a success. He es­ pecially singled out those bring­ ing the dinner baskets that for so many years have highlighted the annual event. Curtis Price, chairman of thc basket committee, also praised the fine response of the ladies in bringing baskets of food. Gate receipts for Wednesday evening, "Thursday and Thursday evening totaled $1923. Since the admission rate this year was in creased to ,20c for adults and 10c Hot children, there is no ao curate account of the number of people attending the 1952 event. Last year 8,018 paid admission into the grounds. Estimates puts this year’s paid attendance some' where in that neighborhood for the three sessions. Observers this year again noted the small daytime crowd. This crowd gradually increased by nightfall and would have prob­ ably reached overflowing pro­ portions had it not been for a thundershower. However, even through the rain the crowd re­ fused to leave and gathered un­ derneath the arbor for the pro­ gram by Joe King and “Brandy­ wine,” and the Farmington FFA String Band. Others gathered under the shelter offered by the various shows on the midway. Probably the largest crowd of the entire week was present Wed­ nesday evening. J. N. Ijames, 90, attended to keep intact his record of never having missed a picnic. Mr. Ijames was there for a brief period dur­ ing the morning program. Dr. I. G. Greer of Chapel Hill delivered the annual address at 11 a.m. His subject was “Pre­ serving the Ideals o'i Masonary.” Dr. J. S. Hiatt, superintendent of Chatham Memorial Hospital, spoke during the afternoon pro­ gram on the topic ‘‘A True Recipe for Happiness.” The Appalachian State Teach­ ers College Band and the Oxford Orphanage Blee Club provided entertainment throughout the day. Car Strikes Men On Side Of Highway Three men narrowly escaped death nnd serious injury Saturday night ns a car suddenly swerved off the highway into the spot where they were standing on the side of the highway. The acci­ dent occured in front of the home of Robert Evans on highway 64, west, around 11:45 p.m. A 1936 Ford heading in the di­ rection .o'i Mocksville and towing a stock race car left the highway and struck Robert Evans and Wesley Potts. Robert Lyerly narrowly escaped being hit, jumping to safety just in time. Potts was knocked into a nearby field, while Evans was pulled from underneath the rear of the car. Both were taken to Davis Hospital but were released after it is considered almost a complete I a checkup disclosed no broken joss bones or serious injuries, other than bruises. The three men were holding lights for Lee Lyerly of Duke Power Company who was on the pole repairing a transformer that had been knocked out in the elec­ tric storm earlier that evening Neither of the two men struck saw the car or knew what had hit them until it was all over. Robert Lyerly saw the car just before it struck, hollered a warning, and jumped aside to safety. Highway Patrolman T. J. Bad gett, who investigated the acci­ dent, reported that the car was being driven by Donald Odell Sparks, 17, Mocksville, Rt. 3. He was returning the racing car from Hickory where rain had forced postponement of a race scheduled 'for earlier that evening. Badgett stated that a car travell­ ing directly ahead of Sparks saw the lights on the side of the high­ way and applied brakes. Appar­ ently Sparks in an effort to check his car, swerved, lost control as it went up the ditch on the side of the highway, stopping when the car being towed hung on a culvert. Mt. Lyerly, who was on the pole at the time of the accident, stated that this was the worst scare of his life. “I heard a yell, the car hit, and then all the lights were out and everything was deathly still, I began yelling for help and Robert answered that he was all right but didn’t know about Potts or Evans. We found Potts in the field and Evans un­ der the back of the car. Both were momentarily knocked out by the collision. I never want that experience again,” said Mr. Ly­ erly. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE LOCALS PLAY HERE THURSDAY Mocksville will play their last home game on the regular Yad­ kin Valley League schedule at the local park Thursday night. The locals will meet Granite Quarry in an important game that will probably determine the final standings of the season. Cooleemee nipped Mocksville 2 ttf 1 in a game Monday night to capture the Yadkin Valley flag and the defeat shoved the locals into' third' place behind Granite Quarry. Bill Spry hurled seven- hit ball to edge McRae in a pitch­ ing duel.

Bixby Hen Lays Egg Within Egg There is an old Negro spirit­ ual concerning ’‘a wheel within a wheel.” A Davie County .farmer recently discovered a rarity, an egg within an egg—and both eggs were perfectly formed, each hav­ ing a hard shell, a yolk and white. J. S. Cornatzer of Bixby was proud of his four and one-half months old pullet for laying such a large egg, but did not think it to unusual. However, when the egg was broken it was found to contain a perfect yolk and white, but in addition another hard shelled egg was found. This sec­ ond egg also contained a perfect white and yolk. F. E. Peebles, Davie County Farm Agent, stated that this was the first egg formed within an egg in this manner that he had seen. The outer egg measured 3 % inches in length, with girth of similar proportions. The inner egg was approximately the size of a bantam egg.

ENTERPRISE THRUSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1952 The Mocksville Enterprise Published Every Thursday at Mocksville, North Carolina MR. AND MRS. EUGENE S. BOWMAN.............................'.Publishers GORDON TOMLINSON ..................................................................Editor Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, J879 The Real Issue On August 30th the voters of Davie County will be faced with the decision of whether or not wine and/or beer shall be legally sold in Davie County. That and that only is the question to be decided. That and that only is the question on which the people of Davie County will vote. A vote against the legal sale of wine and beer will not constitute a vote against the evils of alcohol. A vote for the legal sale of wine and beer will not be a vote in favor of alcohol or its evils. The evils of alcohol will be present in Davie County regardless of the outcome of the election on August 30. A vote against the legal sale of beer will not be a vote against the legal consumption of beer. It will be just as legal to possess and consume beer (within certain limit­ ations) if the vote is against legal sale as it will be if the vote is in favor. The sale of liquor is now illegal in Davie County. How­ ever, no one can deny that a large amount of liquor is con­ sumed in Davie County, sold in Davie County, and even made in Davie County. The placing of the stamp of ille­ gality on this beverage has not abolished it’s evil effects. Perhaps it would be wise for the thinking men and women of Davie County to attend the session of Superior Court next week. This would give them an opportunity to observe first hand the cases involving liquor and the violations occuring in Davie County where it’s sale is illegal. It would also present a fair picture on the question of the sale of beer. Hie officers of Davie County are doing excellent work in the field of law enforcement. The majority of their time Is consumed in handling of cases directly resulting from alcohol. That is true today—it was true 100 years ago— and will probably be true 100 years from now. The reason for this is that the solution to the alcohol problem, as it has been proven time and agin, does not lie in the passage of laws, but within man himself. It is the duty of every citizen to vote on August 30 according to the dictates of his own conscience on the question stated on .the .ballot------------------------------------------ Letters To The Editor Advance, N. C. August 14, 1952 TO TIIE VOTERS OF DAVIE COUNTT: I understand that there is to be an election on August 30th to vote for or against the sale 0T beer and wine in Davie County.! Being interested in all matters that may affect the welfare of our County, I have given this ] matter considerable thought and investigation. j First I found that there are! nine outlets in the County that' sell beer. | Second, that the County treas­ ury has within the past three years received some $39,000.00 re­ fund from the State as its per cap­ ita share of the tax money from the sale of beer. Third, that is the County is voted dry this income will be eliminated. I have questioned a number of people on the subject. Some were wet, some were dry and some were indifferent. As one man put it: “Hell, what do I care how it goes? I buy all I drink in Forsyth County anyway.” Another person whom I know to be a user of alcohol in other forms besides beer said he hoped it would go dry then he could make a nice profit selling it to persons who idin't want to drive outside the County for it. (What he meant was that he could buy all he wanted at retail prices outside the County and then sell if for at least 100 per cent profit at home with no competition from any legally controled outlets and no profit to the County). In questioning a number of known beer drinkers, I find that approximately 80 per cent of them buy 95 per cent of their beer out­ side the County and will continue doing so if the County goes dry. From these facts I arrive at the conclusion that the only results we would obtain from voting the County' dry" would "be to rob the A G ittnJ itn tn Velua Hen's tho most tor qour money!

Many arc caught with insufficient feed for livestock. One way to avoid feed shortages in the future Is to store feed in silos. Silage can be kept for years with a minimum of spoilage. And silage produces more digestible nutrients at a lower cost than any other feed except pasture. So build your silo now and be prepared to let the food ymrs provide feed for lean years. Statesville Brick Com­ pany Is making a new silo block for economical and perm­ anent brick construction. They'll be triad to send you a free booklet showing how to build your brick silo and listing the materials required. Just phone or write Statesville Brick Company for your free copy.

O. THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1952 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE PAGE THREE You And Your Farm By F. E. PEEBLES, County Agent Protect Small Grains j and Old Corn j With the drought causing ser­ ious loss to our corn crop, it be­ hooves us to protect corn and all grains from insect losses. j Insects may cause serious dam­ age to stared oat, wheat or other small grains. There may be some “old” corn on farms now which likely is heavily infested with | weevils and other insect pests, j This corn can be shelled and treat- j ed with a fumigant in the same manner as wheat or other small1 grain. The bin areas should be made tight, cleaned out thorough­ ly and sprayed with DDT or meth-1 oxyehlor prior to fumigation. Shelled corn treated in this mann­ er can be safely stored for another year if so desired. j For the treatment of bins two or three widely used fumigants which are non-inflamable and non-explosive may be used. Those have largely replaced carbon di-| sulphide which is dangerous to use; from the fire and explosive stand­ point. Growers are urged to ex­ amine their stored grains and treat immediately fi many insects are present. Treatment will cost about 2 to 3c per bushel and one or perhaps two treatments now should give protection until next spring and summer. The County Agent’s Office will have informa­ tion as regard and other control suggestions. Ordering Hay I have a few inquiries concern­ ing ordering hay. I think we might be of some help in getting hay shipped in carload lots ,and it would be nec­ essary for various farmers to pool their orders in order to save freight rates. Since North Caro­ lina has been designated as a disaster state due to the drought that the Department of Agricul­ ture has been asked to haul hay at one-half the usual rate. It is hoped that these requirements will be complied with. Of coursc lespedeza and alfalfa have made excellent growth since the recent rains, but there still A re Y ou Ready? HAVE YOU HAD YOUR School Clothes Cleaned? may be some farmers who will find it necessary topurchaso hay. We would like 'for all those inter­ ested in us helping them to locate hay to let us know as soon as they can determine their needs. Sow Supplementary Grazing Now; The severe drought during this* summer has prevented many i dairymen, beef cattle fanners and ’ others from making enough good! hay to be fed next winter. Some farmers have had to feed their cattle hay during the summer due to the lack of pasture growth. Of course, recent rains wil cause most lespedeza, alfalfa and soy­ beans to put on a pretty good growth. However, in many cases there still will not be enough hay for winter use. I am sure that supplementary grazing this winter wil mean more than in recent years. It can help livestock owners to get by on less hay and still keep their cattle in good condition. It is recommended that supple­ mentary pasture be seeded as soon as possible after August 15 or 20. Seed a mixture of one bushel to one and one-half bushels each of rye, oats and barley, and 15 to 20 pounds o'i crimson clover per acre. If rye is not available, add one-half to one bushel more of oats and barley. Rye grass can be used in the mixture. Cross seed this mixture. Fertilize with 500 pounds of 6- 8-6 of 5-10-5 and topdress with 100 to 200 pounds of nitrate of soda or its equivalent in Novem­ ber and again in February. Elmer G. Hairston to Harvey L.

To tho Editor: Davie County citizens arc aware that a most important issue is now before them—an issue to be decided on August 30th at tho polls.

North Carolina Division united states brewers foundation, inc. physical safety and their finan­ cial solvency, that it would have been well had the public discuss­ ion of the issue been le'it un­ clouded by the dust and dirt of acrimony and vituperation. This, however, has not been the case. Last week in these columns a spokesman for the “wets,” who seoms to have become the “spear-1 head” for the giant breweries, ^ who siphon off a groat volume of j money from Davie County, took it upon .himself to deliver a lot! of scathing abuse upon Rev. G. W. Fink. This vituperative attack' Will, of course, backfire to the j great advantage of the “dry” forces. At least it should stir a lot of indignation on the part of the citizens of Davie County, most of whom know Mr. Fink person­ ally and know him to stand in character and integrity above the reproach of any man. The actual truth is that the attack upon Mr. Fink stems from the frantic efforts of the “wets” (beer dispensing advocates) to stem the tide against them. They recall that 48 counties in North Carolina have voted on this issue, and that 45 of them have voted the beer joints out of these coun­ ties. These mounthpieces for the beer barons have made much of THIRTEEN THOUSAND DOLL­ ARS of beer revenue. But they did not tell you that for every one dollar of revenue TWENTY DOLLARS is spent for the nar­ cotic poison. And they are as "silent as the grave’ 'on the fact that there are over four million alcoholics in the United States, and that the vast majority of them began their downfall as suckers who drank beer. Another insolent and unfound­ ed claim is that the taxes of Da­ vie County will have to be raised if the tainted revenue from beer is cut off. This has not been true in the counties that have out­ lawed beer. It is true, as every­ body knows, that the matter of financing county business is like any other business—at times more money is required and taxes must be increased; at other times they can be lowered. Another fact that the “wets’ ’ignore: more “wet” counties (son-.e of them with ABC stores) have actually raised taxes than have lowered them. Voters, don’t be taken in by the specious efforts of the beer advocates to manufacture some sort of arguments for their side. They are victims of the ancient fact expressed by Abe Lincoln: "Liquor has defenders but no de­ fense.” Vote beer out of Davie County! G. C. GRAHAM Farmington, N.

United Dry Forces of Davie County © © © ©© m©©©©©© © ©© Dear Editor: In. reply to his derogatory ful- minations appearing in the Mocksville Enterprise, and the Cooleemee Journal, August 14th, I desire to say to Mr. R. S. Mc­ Neill: I do not wonder that you cut such bombastic somersaults and kicked up such a dust about some minor matters in my article to which to pretend to reply, for you saw your much worshipped protege and apparent die'.y was about to be exposed. Your only hope of continuing to fool some of the people, it seems, was to try to destroy my integrity and at the same time, with your dust, more deeply conceal the glaring evils of legal beer in Davie Coun­ ty. This performance along with your many similar didoes will only drive from you the ones you hoped to win. Thinking the courts to which I referred in my article, being cancelled, were criminal courts; a reference to the records reveal they were civil terms; neverthe­ less that does not remove from the records the fact that the sa­ lient points of my article are true. We also accept your statement in substance, that until last Janu­ ary there was no necessity so great' that a special term of Criminal court should be held. Also that, that term was the only one held in 30 years. This is a practical admission by you that crime has become so great under “Beer Control” that ex­ treme measures were necessSry. I understand that no provision to care for such minor cases to which you refer, continued on back for at least 30 years. Thank you for this admission. Let us look at the records giv­ ing the reports of the Grand Jury, of all new cases at each court back for ten years: Be­ ginning with the August term of Superior Court 19 4 2 through March, 1947, there were 179 cases Some of these terms continued from half day to two days, and some perhaps two and one-half This covers 5 years or 10 courts. Now let us take from August, 1947, through March, 1952: There were 539 new cases, and since March, 1952, 117 more cases have been added, making a total for five and a half years 658 new cases. Then let us go to The Justice of Peace court, held by Hon. John N. Waters, for the past four years: from March, 1949 to Aug., 1949, 1948 43 cases disposed of; from Aug., 1949 to 1949, 176 cases; from Farch, 1959 to Aug., 1949, 177 cases; from Aug., 1949 to March, 1950, 303 cases; from March, 1950, to Aug., 1959, 381 cases; from Aug., 1950 to March, 1951, 339 cases;, from March, 1951, to Aug., 1951, 361 cases and from Aug., 1951 to March, 1952, 573. These transcriptions from the records of both courts were made by me and another person, and we believe are correct. Voters can any one fail to see that crime has increased alarm­ ingly during the last five or six years. Does this not prove the fallacy of Beer Control? Vote against legal beer and thus put it under the same condemnation that the bootlegger is. Let all stand for the enforcement of all of our laws and not for the violation of any of them. We can do this by voting against Legal sale of beer and wine August 30th. Respectfully, G. W. FINK Mr. and Mrs. Broadway moved this week to an apartment with Mrs. Queen Bess Kennen. Rev. and Mrs. G.

Tobacco Markets Delay Opening For One Week Old Belt Sales Now Set For September 22 The opening of sales in the Old Belt tobacco markets has been delayed one week. The Old Belt markets will now open on Sept. 22 instead of Sept. 15, as originally scheduled. The Bright Belt Warehouse As­ sociation elected to postpone the opening of the Middle and Old Belts in order to delay the closing o'i the Carolina’s Border Belt mar­ kets and give them the opportun­ ity to sell the tobacco now on hand. Joe Williams, secertary of the Winston Tobacco Board of Trade, attended the meeting at Smith- field last Thursday in which the Bright Belt Warehouses Associa­ tion voted unanimously to post­ pone openings of the Middle and Old Belts. “We tried everything in the world to prevent the delay,” Mr, Williams said, “and we regret very much that we've been post­ poned. But if we are realistic about this thing, we wil Irealize that other North Carolina to­ bacco is just as late . . . at the Old Belt.” He was referring to the fact that the Carolinas Border Belt is holding up the Old Belt’s open­ ing because of its delayed clos ing. “All over the state the drought made the crops late, and now the tobacco is still growing. Of course, the Border Belt has a lot of to bacco on hand, and we can’t ex­ pect them to leave it unsold.” The postponed opening for the Old Belt is now set for Monday, Sept. 22, instead of Monday, Sept. 15. And the Middle Belt opens on Sept. 8 rather than Sept. 2. Warehouse sales time will be made up, the meeting yesterday decided by lengthening the daily seeing hours. Mr. Williams said the five hour sales day would be lengthened to five and one-half hours until the lost week (225 sales hours) was made up. “We’ll be able to sell it as fast as the farmers can tie it up,’ he pre­ dicted. The tobacco season this year was very unusual, he said. Plant­ ing was 10 days earlier than usu­ al, but rather than come in ear­ lier the crops are actually 'com­ ing in 10 days or more later than usual. This makes the growing season at least 20 days longer than normal. Reasons for the delayed open­ ings were given by Fred S. Roy­ ster, president of the Bright Belt Warehouse Association ,after the meeting. North Carolina’s 1952 corn crop is the smallest since 1944, Paul Stroud Elected To National Angus Assoc. Paul H.

ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, AUGUST 28, 1952 The Mocksville Enterprise Published Every Thursday at Mocksville, North Carolina MR. AND MRS. EUGENE S. BOWMAN..............................Publishers GORDON TOMLINSON ...................................................................Editor Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 7879 Letters T o The Editor Freedom o f Choice Since the beginning of time the world has been com­ posed of all types of people. Good people, bad people, in­ different people, weak people, bold people, but people with their own ideas for their own lives. There are many people that, in our smug beliefs, seem to live wrongly. Analyzing it a little closer, looking at it from the other fellow’s viewpoint, it may seem that we are the ones who are wrong. This freedom of choice, the decision of right and wrong, has been with mankind ever since creation. The freedom of choice was given to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden—the first man and woman were made responsible for their choices and their actions. Down through the ages the individual freedom of thought and choice has been recognized as a God given right of man. However, even being so recognized has not prevented the attempt to regulate thought and choice by certain well meaning individuals. There have been many incidents whereby certain individuals .sects or groups have attempted to infllict upon mankind their own ideas of right and wrong and in such a manner to make such ac­ ceptance mandatory. To justify for themselves and others the regulation of thought and choice of their fellowmen, quotations from the-Scriptures are often uttered. Such quotations, how­ ever, are always taken out of context thereby often dis­ torting true meaning. The Bible does not in anyway approve or endorse any attempt by mankind to judge mankind; it does not ap­ prove or endorse the attempt of one man to be the con­ science of another. The Bible does, however, recognize the sovreignity of man and his responsibility to God, and to his fellowmen. Jesus put faith into mankind by his constant refusal to establish a set of ironclad rules for conduct. He could have very easily issued a string of “Thou Shalt Nots,” but He didn’t. Instead He gave man and the world a set of high principles—to be achieved through the desire of the indi­ vidual himself. Christianity has long pointed the way for salvation through personal redemption. This religion has empha­ sized that such redemption can take place only when it is the personal choice and desire of the individual—it cannot be brought about by any mandatory rules and regulations. No one will deny that there are certain evils existing in the world. No one will deny that there are many evil effects stemming from alcohol and its derivatives. But neither can no one deny that there are many evils effects stemming from the automobile, the gun, the cigarette and other products of social usage. No one can deny that the automobile is the greatest object of destruction in the world today. Through injury and death it has broken up innumerable homes and de­ stroyed many innocent people. It probably heads the list as a creator of social problems yet to be solved. The cigarette has no physical or moral value to man. No one knows how many wrecks have resulted in the at­ tempt to ignite a cigarette or brush burning embers from clothing. All are familar with the many cases where lives and property have been destroyed by a careless smoker. The gun is a source of protection for our homes and a source of pleasure on a hunt. But how many lives would be saved if we could forever abolish the gun? It has killed many accidentally and it is the murderer’s greatest weapon Would we not be stepping out of line away, from Chrfct- ian principles, if we attempted to issue a blanket indictment against the manufacturer, the distributor, or the dealer for the evil effects resulting from the misuse of these social products? We realize that such evil effects result not from the products themselves, but from the combination of man and the products. Only when combined with man do evil effects result. Knowing this to be true, through our laws have been, worked out systems of control aimed at reducing the evil effects of these objects of our society. We have traffic laws for the control of vehicles; we have laws relating to the use of guns; and we have laws relating to the control and use of alcoholic beverages. None of these are 100 per cent successful and will never be without abridging certain inalienable freedoms of mankind—such as life, lib­ erty and the pursuit of happiness. Most any object you may think of that is present to­ day in our society is not without evil effects when wrongly used by mankind. The solution then appears to lie with mankind—not with an inanimate object. For life and relationship in a crowded world, there is but one rule and that is the Golden Rule, the very basis of Christianity—“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” This rule does not discriminate, nor does it condemn. It merely points the way to a better way of life through freedom of choice. Dear Editor: I have read with much inter­ est and high appreciation many of the excellent editorials in The Mocksville Enterprise written by the versatile editor, but for oncc at least he completely jumped the track in his editorial entitled “The Real Issue,” appearing Aug. 22, 1952, in which he said, among other things: “A vote against the legal sale of beer will not con­ stitute a vote ag.iinst the evils of alcohol. A vote Tor the legal sale of beer and wine will not be in favor of alcohol or its evils.” A quick solution of this matter would be to compare this state­ ment with any law or laws against crime now on the statute books of North Carolina. The law against stealing, the law against murder, ♦he law against rape, does not fully prevent any of these crimes, but all will admit they do greatly reduce them. Therefore to vote for the repeal of these or any other laws against crime, would constitute a vote for the increase of crime, and to vote for the retention of one or all of them would be a vote Tor the suppression of crime. So to vote for legal liquor in the form of beer or any other al­ coholic beverage is a vote for any crime for which it is responsible, or for which it might encourage, by lowering one's power of con­ trol. To vote against legal beer or any other form of beverage alco­ hol is showing our stand against all crimes and untimely deaths caused by it, even if there should be some alcoholic beverages sold against the law, as is the case with other laws. If we cannot kill all of the poison snakes we all believe in killing all of them we can. If we cannot put out all fires ,we will put out all we can. So with beer, wine and all beverage alcohol. To vote for it expecting material gain by it is also to become a partner in the business to that extent, as I see it. Respectfully, G. W. FINK. Dear Citizens of Davie County: The question facing us at the polls next Saturday, August 30, is a moral issue. It is not a Dem ocratic, or Republican or Inde pendent, or «Methodist, or Presby terian or Baptist issue in itself, but this is a question involving the righteous action of all parties and all denominations and all indi vinuals. We, therefore, call upon all moral and right thinking citi­ zens of Davie County to go to the polls next Saturday and vote against the legal sale of beverage alcohol in our County. It is morally wrong to legalize the sale of beverage alcohol: it is right to prohibit by law. It is morally wrong to put up a stumb­ ling block in our neighbor’s way; it is right to remove it. It is mor ally wrong to drink alcoholic bev­ erages in any degree; it is right to stop it. It is morally wrong to promote intemperance in any form; it is right to be a total ab­ stainer. We should vote out the sale oi beverage alcohol. Then we should follow this up by a program of education and religion as to the evils of- beverage alcohol. We should get behind our county law enforcement officers as never be­ fore. Vote out legal sale of beverage alcohol next Saturday, and we will have a cleaner county, better morals, better law enforcement, more sobriety, better churches aijd stronger manhood. Take this matter to our Lord and find His will in this crusade for righteous­ ness. J. P. DAVIS The Mocksville Enterprise Mocksville, N. C. Dear Sir: It will soon, be a year since I moved from Davie County. I have been reading the Enterprise with interest as to the coming beer election. Some of the letters to the editor I have enjoyed read­ ing, some of them I did not like and cannot agree with the writer. I enjoyed serving four church­ es in Davie County and I cah’t believe that the good people of Davie County will stoop so low as to vote to legalize beer. I do thank God for the “United Dry Forces of Davie County.” They have worked faithful and have been very patient. I shall continue to pray that the people of Davie County will let the Holy Spirit lead them as to how they should vote on this question. Jesus told the disciples, "He will guide you into all truth.” I don’t be­ lieve a person can be a Christian and vote for beer. The Holy Spirit will not lead a person wrong. Many thanks for printing this note in your paper. I hope to read it when my paper arrives next week. Sincerely, “IN HIS NAME,” JOHN OAKLEY To the Editor o¥ the Enterprise: The question to be decided Sat­ urday, August 30th, is not wheth­ er there will be beer and wine in Davie County, but whether its people are Christ or anti-Christ. There is no middle road to take, either you are for God and His way of life or you are against Him. Destruction or salvation are in the hands of you and me who vote. In this day in which we live some of our political leaders, who are supposed to be our Best men try to please the world in their aims. God is not taken into con­ sideration. As long as they can get around some man made law it matters not about breaking God’s moral laws. Some day you'll stand before the judgment bar of God and be weighed in the balances and found wanting. You may win this beer and wine election, but victory in the end will be denied to you and your kind. Wise up, read the handwriting on the wall of time. Help take our own be­ loved America back to God and (Coatianed oa Page 6) HERE is what two really important ministers say about prohibition! § The late beloved and Internationally famous Henry W ard Beecher “ T o a t t e m p t t o c r e a t e m o r a l i t y b y l a w i s o f a l l t h i n g s s u p r e m e l y a n d s u p e r b l y f o o l i s h .

Even to those who are cold to the ideals for which the Church stands, that finger of faith always points to something that is comforting, reas« suring, safe. The very presence of • Church, whether in a crowded city street or on a quiet country road, is a bene­ diction to ail, including those who are not conscious of worship. Such an influence, with what it means to those who open their heart* to truth, is worthy of a second thought. It merits acceptance as a refuge. It commands confidence as a port in time of storm. The Church deserves your support •—your membership—because It af* forde real protection for the family whose welfare it is your duty to de­ fend and whose proper upbringing is your solemn obligation. ■ LECTRIC POWER OUTDOORS, INDOORS, ALL AROUND THE THEATER / I ® CH OTCH r o t A IL .

"The largest member of the Family of the Liquor traffic, who has been dressed up with the finest clothes, decoratcd with gold and dia­ monds and other precious jewels and has been, by exports, paint­ ed with lipstick and rouge; and sent forth by the liquor interests as tho most innocent virgin; the friend and benefactor of people o 'fall close sand ages; the leader only. “AU having any experience with drinking beer know that while it is the mildest form of beverage alcohol, yet one can easily get dunk on it, and that many do. Besides many develop the thirst for alcohol with beer anl bccome alcoholics.” A wife and mother said some days past to me: “I can tell when my husband comes home drunk on beer—It he comes in cursing, turning chairs and tables over nnd wanting to fight, that is a beer drunk. When ho conies in peacably, with a shamed face, seeking a place to lie down—that is a hard liquor drunk.” Dear Friends let us all vote out this legal beer August 30th Respectfully, G. W. FINK ® ( Dear Editro: | Despite the strained efforts of Mr. G. C. Graham,'of Farming­ ton, to shore up the tumbled down argument o'i Mr. G. W. Fink, that taxes mean nothing when a glass of becr is concerned, and that legal sale of beer has been the primary cause of increased crime in Davie County the truthof all social circles to the great*. ii i.ru .' still remains a sparkling jewelest popularity and lame." What, _ . .. do dictionaries say it is? All agree on the following answer: i “Any of various fermented li­ quors, including ale and porter, made generally from malted bar­ ley, with hops or other substances .added to give a bitter flavor.” Beery: "Pertaining to beer, .•soiled or stained with beer; in- .toxicaied.” In an address delivered at “In­ stitute of Public Affairs Univer­ sity of Virginia, August 18-20 11)27, by the Honorable Edward 55. Dunford,—“The BEER BUS­ INESS represented 90 per cent of the LIQUOR TRAFFl6 prior to prohibition.” From another re­ liable source it was stated “The Liquor traffic was broken down that cannot be dimmed by garbl­ ed statistics. Mr. G. W. Fink, after superfic­ ial research, skiming over the surface of local court records, has charged legal sale of beer with be­ ing- -responsible-- for - increased crime in Davie County over a per­ iod of years. In his letter to the Editor of 22 August, 1952, Mr. Fink sum­ marized the number of criminal cases added to the trial docket in the Superior Court o £ Davie J County from August, 1957, to|(j March, 1952, and showed a total I @ of 539 bills o'i indictment. To this | number he added 117 more cases involving offenses occuring since (Continued on Page 7) Coke goes w ith good times When you’re off for an outing, remember that Coke adds life and sparkle to the occasion.

It murders! Hunting accidents kill hundreds and hopelessly cripple thousands more every years. The automobile and gun create great social problems. DOES THE ANSWER LIE IN OUTLAWING THEM ALTOGETHER? The fault lies in man’s use of these things. Therefore we have laws to control their use. We also have laws to control beer sales. Shall we abandon those laws and outlaw sales? We know Prohibition: will not stop beer sales or the abuse of the right to buy.

Victorian and Early fur­niture, Marble top tables, wash stands copy of the calendar of criminal MORE ABOUT Letter To The Editor: March, 1952, making a grand to­ tal of 656 criminal cases occur- ing since August, 19f>7—all on account of beer! Mr. Fink, in harmony with his usual practice, did not give the public the true' facts. He did not classify into groups, the character of causes totally unconnected with beer in any manner. He did not tell the public that a vast major­ ity of indictments found by the grand juries related to petty traf­ fic offenses totaly unrelated to beer in any manner. No, Mr. Fink and Mr. Graham, in their fanatical fervor to win a losing battle, would have you be­ lieve that all crime in Davie County is traceable to beer. At the time Mr. Fink’s letter of 22 August was handed to the printer he had in his possesion a any man to surrender to Christ who has surrendered to even so­ cial drinking. A MAN’S BODY Speaking of the body, I quote the late Dr. Howard A. Kelly, NOTICE OF SALE Sale of land for delinquent taxes for the year 1951 as pro­ vided by General Statutes 105- 387 of North Carolina and amendments thereto: and order of the Town Commissioners: I, the undersigned tax collect­ or of Town of Mocksville will on MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1952, at 12:00 o’clock noon at the Court House door in Mocksville, Davie County, N. C., sell for unpaid taxes due the Town of Mocks- famous surgeon of the Johns Hop- ville for the year 1951 the lot or kins Hospital: “There is no di- parcels herein below described sease in the world for which al- _ under lots, and amount of taxes cohol is a cure. It does undeniab-; being shown opposite each name ly cause thousands of cases of di- j resPectively in which the tax is sease.
