WE SUGGEST APPRECIATION WEEK We seem to be developing a habit of designating a whole week in celebrative style to all kinds of things. We have just come through Music W'eek, then there was Baby Week antJ Boy Scout Week and so on back through the months. With only 62 weeks in a year we will soon have to split up or com bine events and celebrate in double or triple dedications, and if they pile up too fast we will have to have printed on our cal endars reference data inform ing us what procedure w’e should use Monday morning. We would arouse conflicting emotions if Be Kind To Animal W'eek was scheduled with National Rat Week. We would sink in confus ion trying to figure out whether we should spring the rat trap or ruin the day for the cat. The governors of the Carolin as have endorsed a plan to pro mote Friendly Week, with the slogan “Be More Friendly with Your Neighbors, and More Friendly with Your Friends.” That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Regard for our friends and respect for our neighbors won’t involve us in a great deal I of harm. Mutual interest from congeniality of sentiments will be a relief from hostile ill-dis posed foreign notes. If the two Carolinas governors make a success of friendly week, they might see fit to extend the time and encourage its spread. Then we might start Appre ciation Week. We could launch a right successful campaign in our ow’n village wnth little effort, and present one of the first bou quets to Ben Bradin and Father Williams, two mem <|vho give with enthusiasm a great deal of their spare time to the young boys of the community. Boy Scouts need an able leader. The more outstanding qualities the leader has. the greater the prof it will be for the small boy. Ben Badin is about as well fitted for the task as any man in the village. He has had years of army experience as a non-com missioned officer in the Re serves, and army training has endowed him with a certain ap preciation of law and order and the habit of yielding willingly to authority and restraint. Last Friday under the direc tion of Scoutmaster Bradin and Father Williams some 30 or 40 Scouts camped in a rural neigh borhood some three miles east of Southern Pines. They set up their tents in military fashion for their one night out, and con ducted their camp in quiet or derly manner. The feature of the episode that impressed one county resident was the spotless condition of the woods after their departure. The military man told the keen eyed observer that the army taught their men the importance of the reverse law of gravitation. In school they learned that what ever goes up is expected to come down, but in the army what goes / ' down must come up. Neatness ■ is a valuable bit of training not only for the soldier to leam but an important thing for the Boy Scouts and every citizen of the land. A volunteer Scout leader ac- cepts his job without financial remuneration. He accepts at the same time a heavy load of re sponsibility and he sees his own personal free moments cut al most to the zero line. It isn’t every man who is fitted for such a task or do all have the ability or inclination in that direction. The Scout leader sacrifices many things in order to carry on the work imposed. The entire com munity should be appreciative of the men who donate so generous ly of their time and efforts to VHi: PSCK£TBOOK of KNOWLEDGE IN THI WOOOCTON OP lACH UOOO.OOO AUTOMOeiLfS IT IS (STIMATCO THAT THI A6RICU.TURAL PRODUCTS TOOM 4 ACHK An osta Ihoicativi or THt RISIN6 StNT\MENT FOR CMAH6C IN THE WAftNIrA lABOR RtiUtTIONS ACT, THt MOST RBCtHT POlt.

The Pilot presents its bouquet. —H.K.B, NO PLACE FOR LENIENCY It is lenient enough in the case of motorists convicted of driv ing under the influence of liquor to let them off with a fine, sus pended sentence and revocation of license, considering the fact that they are the greatest men ace to life and limb we have in the country. But when one is arrested a second time for this offense, there seems to The Pilot no ex cuse for leniency. We find in the Moore county Recorder’s Court docket this week that Henry Kellum, colored, of Pine- hurst w'as given a 60-day sen tence for drunken, careless and reckless driving,” this to be sus pended upon payment of a fine of $75 and the costs. His license was revoked for a year.” This, despite the fact that Kellum had been previously con victed of drunken driving. Judge E. Earle Rives of the Municipal Court in Greensboro, who has been on the bench there for several years, has made it a hard and fast rule to send to the roads any person convicted a second time for driving under the influence of liquor. Greens boro and Guilford county, as a result, are making their streets and highways safe. Fatalities in that neck of the woods have been reduced to a minimum. WATCH THAT BICYCLIST Bicycling by the youths is be coming so popular in Southern Pines and other Sandhills towns that The Pilot wants to sound a wajming. State papeHs this week have reported numerous accidents wherein children on bicycles have been run down by automobiles. Two young ^ter8 were killed in Fayetteville; one seriously injured in Gastonia, and others elsewher e . Keep these figures in mind when driving: 937 killed, 7,633 injured in traffic accidents in North Caro- lina in 1938. 1^7 killed, 1,485 injured dur ing the first four months of 1939. And it might be well also to keep this in mind: 21,760 drivers have had their licenses revoked in this state since the present law went into effect in 1935. The chain letter epidemic htis started up again. Numerous resi dents of the Sandhills received let ters this week urging them to write four duplicates^ send them on to friends, and to send a quarter to the one whose name appears at the top of the letter they received. You are supposed to get a lot of money, eventually, if you do this, for your name eventually heads the list. You may not know it, but South ern Pines has a band other than the one at the high school. The Ark school pupils, even the tiniest ones, are members, and they gave a con cert last Friday, the last day of school, for parents and friends. There’s an editorial in The Pilot this week about “Weeks.” Just for fun this department dug up a list of these “Weeks” during the remaind er of 193». Here they are: May 14-20—National First Aid Week. May 21-27—Foreign Trade Week. May 21-28—National Tennis Week. May 21-28 — National Poetry Week. May 23-30—Buddy Poppy Week. June 19-25—Send a Child to Camp Week^ June 25-29 — National Display Week.
