Trial : * i .vw, I 6* Era?r All Warsaw and Kenansville are agog with the news of the industry coming to Duplin to be located between Warsaw and KenansviQe. Conversation is about nothing else. Excite ment is running at a high pitch I have seen pictures of the' plant la Washington. N. C. both inside and out, and it is beau tiful. It alt seems like a won derful dream. In the Tuesday, September 15, issue of the Goldsboro News Arugs, Editorial Page, there is an Editorial headed "Wayne Farmers Could Learn In Tours To Duplin, Pender'.. In the edi torial it states: "Duplin within 10 years has forged ahead as the number one farm income county of the state. It has done this through poultry raising and processing and by develop ment of crops supplementing its tobacco and truck." With the outstanding farm program and poultry industry, Carter Fabrics at Wallace, other small industries and now with the new industry coming to Duplin, there is no reason why Duplin cannot step out in to the lime light in many ways where she has been lagging. Went out to B. F. Grady sch ool on a news story on Mon day night. Due to pressure in the office I had not been able to get out In that area in a long time. Going out to the Grady section is like going back home and I surely did enjoy seeing everyone a gain. I discovered that the principal. Ray Futreal, is or ginially from Rich Square and knows my sister and brother in-law real well. The floors in the auditorium at the school had been re finished and looked wonderful. In the front hall had been placed a most attractive huge poster reading "Anchors aweigh until May." Ruth Duplin Teen Dems Meet Sat.
