was one of the finest District con

which draws its membership
from throughout Moore County,

Harrington, Jr., skeet shoot; Wil
liam C. Sledge, local arrange

olinas.
Dr. Moore Speaks
A highlight of the convention
was the Friday morning address
on “Securing the Blessings of
Liberty” by Dr. Ansley C. Moore,
president of St. Andrews College
at Laurinburg.
With a phrase from the pre
amble of the Constitution as a
take-off point, he urged frequent
perusal of this document along
with the Declaration of Indepen
dence and Lincoln’s Gettysburg
Address, for those “who find
themselves frustrated by Khru
shchev, Castro and Mao.”
He advised that people hark
back to the period 1781-87 of our
nation’s history, “when, out of
sweat and struggle, the clashing
of minds and ideas, our forefath
ers hammered out the most fan
tastic system of checks and bal
ances for the protection of the
individual and the securing of
liberty forever.”
This “fantastic system” proved
to have a most remarkable
strength, reminded Dr. Moore, re
sistant to autocracy and tyranny
in all forms, a government so
good “it must be shared—^we must
open our doors to more and
more.”
To keep it firm, with liberty se
cured, ‘‘tve must remember that
government is something to hve
under, not on,” added Dr. Moore,
asking the question, “Are we
strong enough, self-controlled
'enough, with sufficient mastery
of our own desires, to make it
worth having?”
Campaign to
Aid Blind, Other
Projects Continues
The annual White Cane Sale of
the Southern Pines Lions Club—

p. m.
Anyone who is not reached by

ding persons aided locally in the
area where the money is given.

SOFT WHEAT
North Carolina produces soft
red winter wheat, which does not
add to the national wheat sur
plus, according to George Spain,
extension small grain specialist
at N. C. State Collegfe. The car
ryover of soft red winter wheat
as of June 30, 1961, was 12 mil
lion bushels. “This is about what
the nation needs for a good work
working stock,” says Spain.
Wheats produced in the west ac
count for the nation’s huge wheat
surpluses.
From 1865 to 1900, North Caro
lina’s bright tobacco averaged 10
cents a pound. During the same
time, the old-fashioned dark, fire-
cured Virginia tobacco averaged
six cents a pound.
