This year,-the Bell is again serving its country as the July 4. The Liberty Bell has been re produced in greater numbers, in more forms than any other Amer ican patriotic relic or symbol. - ... a. u..: SUBSCRIBE TO THE P I L O T insigne of the U. S.

NOTICE OF SALE Under and by virtue of an Order of the Superior Court of Moore County the undersigned Commissioner will offer for sale and sell to the highest bidder for cash at the Court House door of Moore County in the Town of Carthage, North Carolina, on MONDAY, JUNE 26, 1950 at 12 o’clock NOON, the following real estate: All the right, title and interest belonging to tfie estate of N. J. Henderson, deceased, in the fol lowing described lands: LOT No. 93, as shown on a map entitled “WASHINGTON HEIGHTS, VASS, N. C.,”; LOT No. 15 in Block Ml & J.3, and lots Nos. 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and one-half 1 of the center square in Block N & 111; one-half undivided interest in about ten acres of land known as the ENNIS EDWARDS land about one-half mile west of the Town of West Southern Pines, N. C. Any other lands belonging to the estate of N. J. Henderson, de- Menabers of the American Le gion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Sandhills Veterans and members of the National Guard, under their respective commanders, honored their comrades of past wars in an impressive ceremony held at Mount Hope cemetery Tuesday, May 30, Memorial Day. With an honor guard of Boy Scouts, drawn from the two troops, lining the sides of a hol low square, the veterans and la dies of their auxiliaries, civic lead ers, clergymen, and visiting speakers paid solemn tribute to the fallen. The them'e of a rededication to peace and the free ideals for which they fought and died were uppermost in thought and speech. From the invocation, delivered by the Rev. Charles Covell, in which he prayed: “Keep us in the path of true international brotherhood; forgetting past misunderstand ings, may we press forward in the path of peace,” to the final bene diction by the Rev. Williami C. Holland of the Baptist Church, who prayed that “the spirit of Christ may rest upon the lead ership of all nations,” the theme was the same: Guard our free doms; help us to win peace earth. Following the opening remarks by I.egionnaire D. D. Shields Cameron, in charge of the cere mony, Mayor C. N. Page gave a word of welcome to the gather ing. Major John Lang of Carth age, secretary to Representative C. B. Deane, followed the mayor. Saving that he believed the no blest thing about patriotism and love of country was the way in which it supplies us with a cause greater than ourselves, Lang urg ed freedom from bitterness and thoughts of past wrongs. “Let it not be necessary,” he said, “that we must have another war and further-bloodshed in order«to find that cause greater than our selves.” The speaker of the day was the Hon. F. Donald Phillips of Rock ingham, associate, justice of the 13th district, and a member of the Nuremberg military tribimal. Judge Phillips told of the beauti ful jnilitary cemeteries all over the world,, where, he said, “585,- 000 war dead lie under the green turf in the shadow of Old Glory flying above. ‘We must always be grateful,” Judge Phillips told his hearers, “for what they did, for the lives they laid down that this nation might .endure in freedom. Rem embrance and gratitude we owe them,” said the speaker, “but how much more it would mean if we rededicated our lives each Mem orial Day to those things for which they died: the four free doms, peace, God and country.” He concluded. “Peace is the price less heritage we owe this na tion.” Among others taking part in the ceremony was the Rev. Dr. Robert Lee House of the Church of Wide Fellowship, with a pray er for peace and goodwill. Mr. Coveil closed the ceremonies with a prayer for the dead who lie in unknown graves, in a poemi whose touching refrain; “Father, in Thy presence keeping; Guard our fall en comrades sleeping,” was a fit ting termination to the service, which closed with the solemn notes of “Taps” stealing out un der the pines. Peter Grinnell and David Bailey were the buglers. Following the proceedings, the graves of the fallen were decora ted with flags and flowers by members of the veterans associa tions, a boy scout standing guard at each headstone during the cer emony. 1950.

The spider doesn’t have to drag hiS dinner into the web. Just one willing step inside, and the unthinking fly is hopelessly trapped, a strand at a time. That’s how a nation gets trapped info a socialistic form of government. Not all at once—but a strand at a time—until all liberty is lost. Here’s how it happens. The government of such a country — in the guise of the people’s welfare — begins to assume more and more control over that nation’s industries and serv ices. Little by little, the people turn their responsibilities over to their government — and, eventually, their liberties as well. And it can happen here. There are in America people who want the government to have more and more control over American life. “Let the government begin,” they say, by taking over the doctors, the railroads, the newspapers, the electric light and power companies.” It’s strange, but many of these people— like most Americans — don’t really want a socialistic U.S.A. But the result is the same. When government, a little at a time, controls enough things, you have a socialist nation, whether you want it or not. But by then it is too late. Remember the fly and the spider web. That Erst step in is the most important! • MEET CORLISS ARCHER'' for dolighffut comoifym CBS, Suntfayt, 9 f* M., Eatfora T/im.
