Atkins, president of the North Carolina Automobile Dealers Association, urged all mo torists to “DRIVE FOR A SAFE HOLIDAY!*’ For the third consecutive year, automobile dealers throughout the country are' participating in a special safety campaign during the Christmas holidays. The pri mary purpose of this industry wide effort is to help prevent needless traffic accidents occur ring during the holiday period. The drive is sponsored by the North Carolina Automobile Deal ers Association in co-operation with the Auto Industries High way Safety Committee. Motorists are urged to follow these suggestions for a happier and safer season for all: PLAN A SAFE DRIVE—Allow plenty of time for your holiday travel. On long trips make fre quent stops. Arrive relaxed. BE ALERT TO HOLIDAY HAZARDS—^Drive in keeping with road, weather, and traffic conditions. Remember, most holi day accidents involve drinking and speed too fast for conditions. WATCH OUT FOR OTHERS— Make allowances for unpredic table driver and pedestrian ac tions. Give yourself and others an extra margin of safety. USE COURTESY ABUNDANT LY—Resolve to “Make Courtesy Your Code of the Road.” It pays! BE SURE YOUR CAR IS SAFE—Drive with good tires— properly adjusted brakes—lights and turn signals working—wind shield wipers and defrosters func tioning properly. USE SEAT BELTS—Fasten them when you enter the car. Seat Belts are “Circles of Safety” for you and your family. The North Carolina Automobile Dealers Association hopes that each motorist will assume his in dividual responsibility for the safety of all motorists and ped estrians. In doing so, he will add another link to the chain of safe drivers using streets and high ways during the coming holiday season.

CULBRETH'S Southern Pines Pharmacy Southern Pines Tel. OX 5-5321 ' (At Railway Station) ‘Old Christmas’ Observed Still On Outer Banks In the small village of Rodan- the on the wind-swept Outer Banks island of Hatteras, off the coast of North Carolina, Christ mas is a time for two-fold re joicing. The first, of course, is Decem ber 25, when the citizens of Ro- danthe join with their fellow Americans in the 'traditional manner of celebrating Christmas with gaily decorated trees, gifts, special foods,- and the singing of carols. Unlike the rest of the country, however, when this festive day is finished, the villagers still have another celebration ahead. On January 5, they commemorate the holiday a second time with “Old Christmas.” The festivities are much less elaborate a? towns people simply gather in the vil lage’s little white schoolhouse un til “Old Buck” arrives. A strange, almost cow-like (but man-made) beast, Old Buck makes a brief appearance and then departs, after which an oyster roast and square dance are held. Just why “Old Christmas” is ob served or what the significance of Old Buck is, no one on the is land seems to know. Ever since the first settlers—survivors of a shipwreck—arrived, it has been traditional. Musical Groups Eutcrtaiu PTA: Baud Appeal Made A large audience of Parent- Teacher Association members and guests enjoyed the annual‘Christ mas concert presented by the East Southern Pines school band and glee club Monday night. Both organizations are directed by Wil liam McAdams of the school fac ulty. Meeting in Weaver Auditorium, the PTA, with Mrs. Albert Grove, president, in the chair, dispensed with the business session, except to hear an appeal for the Band Boosters Club band uniform fund which is about $800 short of its goal Mrs. J. S.. Hiatt, Jr., spoke on behalf of the fund, in the ab sence of the club’s president, Mrs. Jim Ritchie. The band Was wearing the new uniforms for the concert, as were the majorettes who escorted flags down the aisles before the au dience sang the national anthem at the start of the program. Both musical organizations ably presented a program of tradition al carols, modern Christmas music and other selections. The glee club ended its program with a novelty rendering of ‘Twas the Night before Christmas,” coordin ated with illustrating color slides projected on one wall of the au ditorium. Fireuieu Respoud To Alarms Mouday Volunteer firemen responded to two alarms Monday morning, go ing first to the home of Mrs. Lau ra Wood on N. E. Broad St., where a can of kerosene on a range turned over and burst into flames, though there was little but smoke dqmage. The second alarm sent the fire- ment to Alec Pratt home on Iowa Ave., Where a shed at the rear of the property caught fire from a laundry heater. The shed was so badly damaged that the owner expects to tear it down. Clothes hanging in it to dry were destroy ed or damaged. Furnishings Needed For Alcoholics' Home The Aberdeen group of Alcohol ics Anonymous sent a truckload of furnishings last week to help furnish a home for homeless al coholics at Fayetteville, and is asking donations for another truckload to be sent as soon as possible. Items were donated in Aberdeen, Southern Pines and Pinehurst. The place, christened the Flynn Christian Fellowship Home, will be for “down-and-outers,” seek ing not only shelter but help and understanding in overcoming their alcohol problem. It will serve this entire area. Persons having furnishings of any kind to give are asked to call W14-1469. GIVEN TV SET Mrs. M. C. Vestal of 787 W.

The J anuary court of honor will ‘Silent Night’ is Sometimes Called Song From Heaven “Silent Night” is often called the “Song from Heaven” because the story of its inspiration and composition is one of the most beautiful Christmas stories in ex istence. On December 24, 1818, in the Austrian village of Hallein as Father Joseph Mohr sat reading his Bible, there was a knock at his door. It was a peasant wo man who wanted the priest to visit a poor charcoal-maker’s wife to whom a child had been born. The parents had sent her to ask the priest to come and bless the infant. Father Mohr was strangely moved by the visit to the mother. And that evening as he returned to his home saw that the dark slopes of the Alps around the village were alight with torches of the mountaineers on their way to church. To him it was a Christ mas miracle. Later, as he tried to put down on paper his feeling and experi ence, the words kept turning into verse. When dawn came he found "he had written a poem —a beautiful and moving poem. On Christmas Day his friend, Franz Xaver Gruber, music teach er in the village school composed music to fit the verse. Village children heard the priest and teacher singing the song and learned it. From there it spread throughout the world. To day, it is regarded as the greatest Christmas hymn and wherever there are men of good will they sing: “Silent night, holy night— All is cahn, all is bright. Round yon vergin, Mother and Child; Holy Infant, so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace— Sleep in heavenly peace.” be held in the Farm Life commu nity, January 8.
