WEBSTER’S SUCCESSOR The Pilot believes that South ern Pines is to be congratulated on its school board’s selection of a new superintendent here. Phil* ip Weaver is no stranger to the community. He made a distinct impression upon pupils and par ents alike when he was a mem ber of the faculty several years ago. He is young—only 26—but the present State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Clyde Er win, was a county superintend ent before he was 25, and was selected to head the State edu cational system in his early thir ties. Mr. Webster was only 27 when elected to serve as super intendent here. Youth^ under stands the problems of youth. The Southern Pines Schools have made distinct progress un der Mr. Webster, and The Pilot understands that his policies are to be continued by his success ors. We extend to Mr. Weaver a cordial welcome to his new bailiwick, and wish him all suc cess. THE POCKETBOOK </ KWOW1.EPCE THI> CUMOUS lOCOMOTWC U*EP IN l6l» •MAi EQUIPPCO WITH IRON TMf LE6*.

We’ve just heard from three little Want advertisements which ran in last week’s issue. One was for a large gas range. The advertiser sold it the morn ing after The Pilot came out. Another was for a key—a very important key, to the owner. The paper was barely off the press before it was return ed to the owner. “FOR SALE — One good milch cow.—J. Bruce Cameron, Manley,” read the third. Mr. Cameron has just been in the office. “So many people started com ing to my house Sunday to see the cow I had to leave home to keep from selling her on the Sabbath,” he said. “I sold her the first thing Monday morn ing, though.” The Pilot likes to serve as a clearing house for the little, or big, things that people want to acquire or to dispose of. And it likes to hear about it when these little 25 cent ads brings results. It does pay to advertise. LET’S STOP THIS NEEDLESS SLAUGHTER This mass slaughter on In dependence Day can be stopped by each and everyone of us by using caution and common sense, writes Ronald Hocutt, di rector of North Carolina High way Safety Division, to The Pi lot. The'-things that cause these tragedies are things we can control — haste, selfishness, and the desire to show off, on the streets and highways. I call on the people of North Carolina and the people coming into our state to stop this mid summer massacre by signing a new Declaration of Independ ence, independence from annual tribute of many North Carolin ians needlessly sacrificed, inde pendence from the kind of cel ebration that leaves tts the dead, the sierhtless and the sufferin'^. I call on thp public to remem ber' that it 18 not only ironic, but cruel to celebrate the right of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness by bringing about death, disability and tragedy. Let’s not turn a happy holiday season into a period of whole sale trao-edv. Let’s be alive on the FIFTH.
