Cfcristaus Mail
la Billion
With the nation's economy
at an unprecedorted pace,
Postmaster William C. White
is predicting a dramatic rise
in mail volume over last
year's Christmas' "rush".
"Literally billions of piec
es of mail will be deli vered
between now and Christmas.
If everyone were to wait un
til the last waek to mail
their gifts and greetings,
there is a possibility that the
postal system would be lit
erally swamped in a ses of
mail Most important, special
messages of good will would
not be delivered on time. Pu
'iblic cooperation is the key to
I {fast and on-time mail deliv
t ery at this time of the year,"
t he said.
[ "In the past, the public
has been very helpful. We
I have not reached the peak
. days of this mailing rush but
! are preparing to handle the
> load by scheduling our em
| ployees to work extra hours
during the two or three weeks
when we expect the volume of
, mail to be the greatest".
The postmaster's plea was
short and to the point: "Shop
early, mail early, and use
ZIP Codes."

THE BLACK SHEEP, a one
act play written by Dorothy
Russell MVirphee, will be pre
sented at Jerusalem Baptist
Church, November 21, at 7:30
P. M. Local members of the
congregation will assume the
various roles. The cast in
cludes: Felix Williams, Jr. as
Dr. Batson the pastor: Tal
madga Cheek as George Piatt
a successful businessman with
an investment firm- Mrs. J.
C. Grubb as Grace Piatt; Re
gina Grubb as Ellen Piatt;
Johnny Thompson as Jack
Piatt; and Clingman Cheek
as Tom Jackson. Directed by
Mrs. Dick Denson.
The Black Sheep is a teen
ager-parent problem play that
deals with religion for the
sake of a respectable appear
ance. It portrays teenagers
caught in the vicious struggle
of reconciling the superficial,
visionary approach to religi
ous service with a satisfying
down-to-earth working religi
on. It portrays parents who
have failed as parents and
?et not realizing their fail
are.

adults attending were. Cook
ing over an open fire, hiking,
working in their Girl Scout
Handbooks, singing folk danc
ing, telling tall tales, roast
ing marshmaliows—ail the won
derful. exciting things that
happsn around a camp fire.
Tha girls participated in a
ceremony called a "Scout's
Own", in which many of the
girls expressed some of their
ideas on "Friendship."
One big highlight of the
trip was when the girls un
rolled their sleeping bags
spread them end to end on
the floors of an empty he use
belonging to Buck Ellis. Ac
cording to the leaders, when
they finally went to sleep,
they slept like babies for a
bout 6 hours, then they were
ready to go again. They can
hardly wait until spring,
when they will take off to
the cut-of-doors.
' v At present, the troop is
working jointly with the Coo
teemee Methodist Church M
YF on a project to send used
clothing and toys to Viet Nam.
Anyone with articles they
would like to donate, is asked
to ccntact one of the Girl
Scouts or their leaders.
Also the girls are busy ma
king things for Christmas and
planning their Christmas par
ty, besides their regular Scout
activities. They are a busy
little group and happy to be
that way.

Library News
Last week we had compa
ny again. Four librarians from
other parts of the state, who
had come to attend the Ncrth
Carolina Library Association
in V. in-ton-Salem. made a
speci.l trip to see the new
Davie .'uunty Public Library
Building. They were very
impre;sed with what they
found.
"Protect Public Library" in
Davie Coiinty i-j commanding
attention of librarie,
thrqug out the stale. Many
inquiries have ccmo as to
the secret of the success of
this effort and now that the
new building Is approaching
completion we are visited now
and then by people in the
profession who are anxious to
see the result of the com
pany's planning and work.
Of course, we know people
must be polite In their reac
tion, and far be it from us
not to be as modest as possi
ble about what this county
has co-operatively ' obtained
for the service of its citi
zenry, but we must admit
that our visitors' comments
have run the gamut from
plain amazement to enthusi
astic praise for the work and
its result!
We're on our way, Davie
County, to opening up « won
derful new world of know
ledge and enjoyment to all
who open that new library
dour with a yen to Ju4 ttl

largely nude up of Vietna
mese refugees
Dad wrote just recently of
the greet poverty and need
of these people. They live in
iong low buildings, cloaely re
sembling cowsheds, with any
where from sne to aeven fa
milies in one room, flattened
cut cardboard boxes are used
to partition the rooms be
tween families and to cover
the dirt floors. In this case,
a "family" includes then* chi
ckens, goats, pin dogs, cats,
and even a bicycle if they
are lucky enough to own one
There is alao a great lack
of clothing and >i—l'-n
The children wear only a
shirt for protection from the
«un and sometimes not even
that
One medic, while demon
strating the art of using soap
to some Vietnamese
found that the small boy he
was washing was ao filthy,
the dirt peeled off like a
garment.
What do they need? This
is primarily a plea, en Mm
half of my father, for cloth**,
clothes of any size, shape, or
kind. Even clothes which to
us are fit only for the rag
bag would be considered ve
ry useful to a person living
in such conditions as these.
A piece of candy or gum
is a luxury anyone would
walk miles for. Scap, too, is
something they rarely have
or use.
Since about one thousand
more refugees are expected
in the An Khe area soon,
the need is even more ur
gent. If you wish to help,
please take your clothes or
gifts to the Cooleemee Meth
odist Church.
