In the Coastal Plain pumps were first used, but pumps displaced wells in the ^andhills, or almost put them -om of business. There were four pumps on Main Street in Raeford when the town first went into business near Raeford Institute. They furnished good water, but the city fathers planned for' water in the homes, which was more convenient. That railroad collision Monday morning in Ohio was a strange occurence. They ran together in open country, and a train loaded with State Guard troops. Twenty- five were killed outright. That was hardly an acdddnt. It '"appears that the people of the world have grown more wick ed, and are more and more in clined to the destruction of their fellow creatures. ^We •tiS®d to’%d bj^^idndfathd^ and at dinner, sit and talk awiiile then we all w^t home, four mRea up the Morganton road.

Of all God’s creation dvery thing has fulfilled the purposes for which it was created but man, God’s chosen haidiwork. “Only man is vile.” The world is placing a low valuation of living in this day of wars and rumors of wars. I am distressed when I think of the future. It is a dark futiure. Chapter 14-1139, General Statutes of North Carolina" reads “It shall be unlawful for ahy person, firm or corporation to start or cause to be started any fire or ignite any material in any of the areas of woodlands under the proteetfi^ Forest Service or within five hundred feet of any such protected area, between the first day of February and the first day. ot June, . inclusive, or between, the first day of October and the thirtieth day of Novem ber, inclusive, in any year, with out first obtaining from the State Forester or one of his duly autho rized agents a permit to set out fire or ignite any material in such above mentioned protected areas; j that no charge shall be made for the granting of said permits. t “This section shall not apply to ahy fires started or »used |o be stared wifiiin five hundred feist of a dwelling heit|e,* Permits may be obtained from County Forest "Warden,C.

RAEFORD, N. C. I used to . go with my mother to visit a Scottish family who liv ed two miles from our home, and I and my little brother I had help ed to carry down there, were all the children on the place, so I had a great day of it. The man of the house talked Gaelic to his wife, and so did his daughter, and when he asked the blessing he spoke Gaelic. Later I attended prayer meeting at that home, and the man of the house prayed in Gae lic at the meeting. I have decided that the best way to learn the Bible is to know where the different truths are, and know how to find what you want. I have read the Bible through several times, but I lack a great deal of knowing that great Book. But I thank God for what I do know. Wind weighs more per cubic foot than sand or water. When wind is traveling at a rate of 120 miles per hour it will sweep the ground clean. I visited the track of the great cyclone of February 19, 1884, and the first place I saw was the home of a colored man, a carpen ter, and an intelligent man. He told me that .morticed building frames dragged and killed people, and balloon frames scattered like a trap, and injured but did not kill. It is the duty of the people of the United States to drive liqpor out of the country all together. Havp prohibitjpn and enforce it. A bootlegger should be fined reasonably for the first offense, and the fine increased to life im prisonment if he did not stop sell ing liquor. I was at Bethesda Homecoming in 1943, and again last Sunday, and I thought often of friends who are no longer on this earth. The first time I was at Bethesda, in 1872, Rev. John M. Rose preach ed his “trial” sermon at 11 o' clock. In my young days the members of Jackson Springs churdh had to have a token before they were permitted to partake of the com munion on sacramental occasions. The first time I remember attend ing church at Jackson Springs, father led me in, took off my hat. I MAYBE- It’s a little early for Anti-Freeze MAYBE- IT AIN’T u .1 I We’ve got it!

Since December 31/.1949, the two power companies, Carolina and Duke, alone, have placed in service or have under construction or on or der 650,000 kilowatts of additional generating capacity to be located in North Carolina. Installation of this capacity is schedulod to be completed by the early part of 1953. This 650,000 kilowatts will provide 40% addi tional generating capacity capable of generating an additional amount of energy In excess of four billion kilowatt-hours annually. ^ It has always been, and will continue to be, tho practleo of the power companies to buy electric power fromwIthoutthe Statowhenever It Is ad vantageous to their customers to dose.
