North Carolina, as Second-Class matter under Act of Marsh 4, 18T9. Thursday, September 16, 1948 Farmers' Day Was Highly Successful Farmers' Day here Tuesday was a high ly successful event in that it accomplish ed its purpose, which is to provide a day of entertainment and celebration in honor of the farming people of Wilkes county. A large crowd was here to enjoy the many events, and what is more important, the crowd was not disappointed, because there was entertainment for all. The pa rade was highly successful from the stand point of number of units, variety and in teresting subjects. The entertainment con tests and stunts were well carried out un der the direction of Tom Jenrette, able secretary-manager of the Chamber of Com merce. 'I Address of Former Governor J. M. Broughton in the afternoon was of parti cular interest to farmers and was well re ceived. The string band concerts by Don Walker and his Blue Ridge Boys were highly pleasing to the crowd. The Trade Promotion Committee of the Chamber of Commerce, sponsor of the event, was fortunate in being able to ob tain the Mount Airy high school band for the parade. Because schools had not start ed, it was very difficult to obtain a band. The Mount Airy students under direction of Howard Emde performed well and ad ded much, to the enjoyment of the oc casion. The National Guard with equipment formed a specially interesting section of the parade and the battery's units of equip ment on display following the parade cre ated much interest. This was the first pub lic appearance of the battery formed here only a few months ago and which has already been recognized as one of the most efficient units of the National Guard in the State. The Trade Promotion Committee, of which W. G. Gabriel is chairman, deserves much credit for the success of the event. Hubert Canter and Gilbert Bare were co cairmen for the Farmers' Day, with L. S. Spainhour parade chairman. The success of all phases of the event is a credit to each and to all their assistants. First Year Baseball Asset To Community This week rang down the curtain on the first year of professional baseball for this community. Only a few years ago, any talk otf professional baseball here would have been dream language. Com ing of pro ball means that the towns and surrounding community are growing, and it also means that sufficient interest in community recreation is here to make it self-sustaining. The professional team in the Blue Ridge League played 73 games here since spring training started, including spring training, regular season and playoffs. That number represents that many events of community recreation during which leisure time was spent by crowds in a wholesome manner. That represents great value to the com munity. The team finished second in the league race, which is indeed a major accomplish ment for a first year team which was or ganized when other teams already had the best players under contract. The team's owner, Tal J. Pearson, Business Manager Larry Moore and Playing Manager Henry Lowman did a herculean task in assemb ling baseball talent in a short time and rounding it into a winning team for North Wilkesboro's first year in organized base ball. Had it been possible for them to have started on the task early last winter their success could have been complete. Professional baseball brought to North Wilkesboro valuable addition to Memorial Park in the form of grandstand, dressing rooms, steel fence, baseball playing field, i and adequate seating capacity for both I baseball and football. These costly im provement are worth * much to the com munity. It was also proved that when given an opportunity, our citizenship, young and old, prefer wholesome recreation.. As the season progressed, the support of the team by attendance of fans grew until the fu ture of professional baseball look good for the community. ? -THE EVERYDAY COUNSELOR By Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. Are we going to keep Christ and Christ mas this year? You may think this is too early to be talking about Christmas cards, but the manufacturers of these cards are already sending out samples for pale and distribution. An article in the New York World Telegram of August 3rd gave a preview of some of these new cards: "Ah, but the new cards. Fifteen sam ples of Christmas joy, cherrynose gnomes helping St. Nick, the traditional, happy feast! Firt, The Three Wise men' and 'An gel' by S?D?. The Angel has no head, but wait! YOU mentally for the face by manipulating a flock of birds descending upon the car cass! Wings! They're snowy, mountain peaks. The figure at the left, like the An gel, strums a sort of banjo. What manner of ferofcious, drooling beasts do the 'Three Wise Men' ride? And the Star of Bethlehem is an orthodox prim. Frankincense, gold and myrrh may by the [ wise men's cargo. Only D? can tell. El G?'s offering, the index says, is 'The Annunciation'! On wispy clouds an other 'Angel' heralds Christendom's most sacred event. The Angel, stern-faced, has arms like GarGantua. The figure with the halo expresses utmost sadness." So plans for Christmas have already commenced. Last year we saw a great growth in Christmas parades in the towns, with huge baloons made in the figures of prehistoric monsters. Where is all this ridiculing of one of the world's most sacred events going to end? The excerpt from the New York World Telegram quoted above refers to the 1948 Christmas cards produced by one of the biggest commercial greeting manufactur ers in the country. This column in advance of Christmas is an appeal to all of our readers to join in a volunteer movement to "help re-estab lish the true meaning of Christmas." It is &n appeal to the merchants who spon sor these Christmas parades, which they are already planning, to put into them more of the true meaning of Christmas and advoid these pagen distortions which in reality ridicule the Holy Christmas sea son. It is an appeal to those who are plac ing their orders for Christmas cards that they resolve to buy and promote those cards which emphasize the TRUE mean ing of Christmas. This does not mean that they all have to contain scripture texts. But if Cristmas is a religious festival, and no one can deny that as its origin, special ly in a Christian nation, then the religious and Christ emphasis should be foremost. One large church publishing house has resolved to try to counteract this anti Christ propaganda at Cristmas time with the preparation of religious, CHRESTmas greeting cards. These are to be sold thru church organizations only. The name of this company will be supplied upon re quest. May we resolve early this year to keep the Christ in Christmas. Never'did we need more the Prince of Peace in the world than today. Won't you help when all of theN Christian principles which stem from Christ and Christmas are under at tack throughout the world.
