Threads Of Gold By Mrs. Powers by Myrtle Lee Powers Grandfather Monroe Lee walked all the way from Appomattox to his home in Johnston County, North Carolina. He had watched his belov ed General surrender but surrend er was not in his scheme. It was a critical time in the South. Grandfather Lee, in this critical time, affirmed his faith in his country and in himself. He mar ried his Mary, cleared new land, built her a house, and founded a dynasty. In 1952 his descendants gathered at the old home place, one hundred and thirty strong. There were laughter and storytelling stories of triumphs and tragedies, of the satisfactions found in Christian liv ing, in everyday family and church life. Myrtie Lee Powers, a descendant ot Monroe Lee, and the wife of a Baptist minister, has gathered the Lee's reminiscences together in this book. The story of her family and friends is a story of good living- warm, vigorous, expansive life, life yesterday and today in rural Ameri ca. There are tales of work and play; of feasts and 'tobacco-barnings,' of Uncle Seth and his mule Jim, both famed for their indomitable wills. Grandma Johnson is here, a great lady who made fine quilts as she lay flat on her back, crippled with arthritis. There are many love stor ies and stories of Christian mar riage of women who bore as many as eleven children and still managed to work beside their husbands in the fields and in their communities- Mrs. Quinn Named Temporaiy tM.

Ways in which the Duplin County Department of Public Welfare can encourage better school attendance this year in cooperation with pub lic school authorities were discuss ed at a meeting of the Welfare Board according to a statement by J. B. Stroud, of Magnolia, chair man of the Board. Eince there is no special school attendance officer in Duplin Coun ty, State law places on the depart ment of public welfare the respon sibility for enforcing the compul sory school attendance" law, Mr.. Stroud said. All agencies and the public generally are asked to help in this task. Referrals by the school authorities, after careful screening of the reasons for absence, are? brought to the attention of the wel fare department. 'The law is clear in requiring all children between the ages of seven and sixteen to attend school. The law provides for legal enforcement of this attendance, both on the children and their parents,' Mr. Stroud said. 'However we want to investigate the causes of non - attendance and to remove these causes, if possible, rather than to Invoke the punitive provisions of the law, the chairman said. 'We ask the cooperation of the public to this end. THany children are out of school because of Individuals or family maladjustments, Mr. Stroud said. Economic or other problems in the home are often the causes of non attendance. These and other needs make services of the public welfare departemnt Important in achieving and maintaining regular school at tendance. We want the children of Duplin County to have the advan tage of our good schools and to at tend them regularly.' Ways in which services of the county public welfare department are assuring regular school attend ance include: 1. Conference with children who are absent and with, their parents to determine causes of absences and ways to eliminate these causes. 2. Determining menlel capacity of children unable to benefit from the regular school program. 3. Providing psychological exam inations to children referred by ther teachers for such service. 4. Cooperating with the juvenile court in providing services to chil dren with special problems, includ. ing behavior difficulties. 5. Cooperation with the courts in determining legal custody or guar dianship of children. 6. Issuing employment certificates to minors in keeping with child la bor laws. 7. Pioviding financial assistance when need exists. 8. Cen'f 'cation and referral for special services, such as crippled children service, orthopedic clinics, eye clinics, Cerebral Palsy Hospital, and other medical and hospitaliza tion needs. 9. Providing casework service in connection with problems of family relations. 10. Providing service to children needing care and protection through adoption, foster home care, special ized institutional placements, and other social services appropriate to meet the needs of the individual child.
