who have spent the wiau*r in Florida

visit Mr. Wilson’s aanfc, Miss Mar
garet A. Kittell, +wo days i-f last
week. Mr. Wilson said it was hard
to find Pinebluff, and that we should
advertise more by markers along the
route. Some think that perhaps we
have lived too much within ourselves
to be very well k.nv/n through the
state, and perhaps we may have been
a little fearful le?c wo attract too
many of the sporting and pleasure-
loving crowd that several of the other
resort towns are bidding for. Some
of us have felt that this Sandhill sec
tion should afford at least one town
where the Christian Sabbath was le-
spected, where Christian people could
come and rest i^nd rccupv^?<ite in body
and spirit, and on joy life in the good
old way which has made our nation the
greatest civilization on earth today.
Pinebluff is loci' id seven mi*e;'
south of Southern Pines, on the Dixie
highway, on a natural bluff, well-

water and an abundjince of sunshine.
Two good churclie.^ and a good school,
two garages with good auto service,
and two other other auto men to carry
all who like ^o attend the sports m
the other towns. Tn a very shurt
time all can have all the excitement
and thrills th2v lika, and the half-liour
ride in the pure air will do them all
good.
Mr. Albert .\danv-5, of Southern
Pines, is decorati.ig the inside and out
side of Mrs. Mary E. Akiiis’ house at
Needle Knoll. Mr. Adamv is an ex
pert workman and knows how to <lo
an excellent job.

a lunch to a party of friends April
4th, and Mrs. Mary E. Akins will en
tertain the same party April 8th, at
her home, “Needle Knoll.”
MR. IVY WRITES
Editor of the Pilot:
While it may not see so to the un
observant, yet the presidential cam
paign before us must be regarded as
the most momentous since 1860-61.
Upon its results will depend whether
the United States is to continue and
go forward as the most enlightened
democracy in the world or will start
downwards towards that extinction
which has come to so many similar
governments because of corruption in
the government itself.
For that reason we should send
our best men to our county convention,
for upon the action of these conven
tions will depend the character of the
state convention in Raleigh.

The Pilot and the Kiwanis
Club
The Pilot has been asked why
it is a member of the Kiwanis
Club, and why it gives so much
attention to the meetings of the
dub. The answer is not a dif
ficult one. The Kiwanis Club is
a gathering of men who meet
once a week to discuss ques
tions of local interest, and to get
better acquainted with each
if the club could have a member
ship of a thousand instead of
about a hundred, but as that is
impossible, the next best thing
is to carry away from the meet
ings as much of the discourse as
possible, and present it to the
readers of the paper that they
may have the benefit of it. It is
not possible for a reporter in a
other. This one feature is high-1 hurried synopsis of a speech to
Beasley Building
VASS. N. C.
ly commendable. But another is
more so; at each meeting a
speaker delivers an address on
some timely topic of local im
portance. These addresses are
by men who are representatives
in special lines, and what they
say comes with high authority.
Their subjects are not restricted,
and what they say is limited to
one requirement: it shall be an
honest opinion, and the view
point of the speaker is a matter
of his own choice, for truth is
entitled to an open field.
For this reason the Kiwanis
Club is giving to a bunch of near
ly a hundred representative bus
iness men of the county a post
graduate course on those topics,
that directly concern our own
community and its relations to
the world, and it is a mighty in
teresting fact that at every
meeting this bunch of observant
men sit and listen with the keen
est attention to the speaker from
the beginnng to the end of his
talk.
Now, the Pilot would be glad
The Republican party as now or
ganized has shown its unfitness to
be entrusted with power. The coun
try awaits the action of the Demo
cratic party with the keenest interest.
So let us, in the convention at Car
thage next Saturday, meat the re
quirements of the occasion, and send
a delegation to Raleigh that will put
Moore county on the political map.
Yours truly,
THOMAS P. IVY.
Southern Pines, N. C., April 7, 1924.
Properly cared for, the home gar
den is an object of beauty and is a si
lent but impressive testimony of the
indivisibility of human effort; so many
people in so many places have worked
together for its creation; it demon
strates clearly the possibilities and
results of co-operation.
give the story as the speaker
tells it, but always the report
given in the Pilot is better than
none, and it is the hope that by
scattering to hundreds of read
ers what was said a wholesome
influence has been exerted. In
this day when so much attention
is given to education, it seems
helpful to put before the older
folks of the community these
substantial things to think
about, as well as to devote time
and effort to the education of the
children. The Kiwanis Club is
giving the county a generous
lecture course, and so far every
lecture has been worth all the
space it has been given in the
papers and more. We are all too
much wrapped up in our own re
stricted views, blind *:o the broad
truths that are all about u.^. If
the Pilot can break down some
of this isolation and let knowl
edge filter in from other men and
minds, it believes it b doing a
good job. That is why the pa
per is a member of th? Kiwanis
Club. That club is a club of ed
ucation and progress.
