Dr. William Thornton Week According to Ralph Cottle, Duplin County manager, the week of the third flight of the Challenger has been desig nated as the "Doctor William Edgar Thornton Week," by the adoption of a resolution by the county commis sioners. State of North Carolina County of Duplin Whereas, Doctor William Edgar Thornton is a native son of Duplin County, Faison, North Carolina; and Whereas. Doctor Thornton has distinguished himself in both his chosen professions of medicine and space aero nautics; and Whereas, Doctor Thorhton has most recently received the high honor of having been selected as a member of the next space flight mission aboard the Challenger; and Whereas, all citizens of Duplin County stand proudly behind this native son as he brings honor to this county, this state, and this nation; Now. Therefore, be it re solved by the Duplin County Board of Commissioners that the week of the third flight of the Challenger be designated as "Doctor William Edgar Thornton Week." This the 15th day of August, 1983. William J. Costin, Chairman of the Duplin County Board of Commissioners Attest. Ralph Cottle, clerk Along tho Way Imlly Klllatt* School began Monday. Summer vacations are sel dom long enough for the students but often too long for parents, and a poem appeared in a September 1950 issue of THE DUPLIN TIMES written from the mother's viewpoint. The poem was written by Eve M. Bartels and turned in to THE DUPLIN TIMES for publication by Mrs. William R. Teachey. The poem en titled "From Mothers To Teachers" follows. If you can keep you head when 40 children Liberty Cart Is Among The Best Editor's Note: The follow, ing article is reprinted from the Aug. 17 edition of THE DAILY REFLECTOR of Greenville. Tourism is North Caro lina's third largest industry, and outdoor dramas bring tourists. In their zest for "foreign" currency, well meaning communities some times produce outdoor dramas only a mother ? or a devout historian ? could love And yet, when this zest is accompanied by sound artistic vision in the shape of a well constructed, theatrical script, the result can be an evening worth a drive from anywhere. "The Liberty Cart" in Kenansville, a 90-minute drive from Greenville, is everything an outdoor drama should be: a coherent, en tertaining representation of history personalized. Phenius Pickett is play wright Randolph Umberger's 200-year old water peddler, who with a snap of his fingers stops or begins the story. Worldly wise, humor ous and, like all Umberger's characters, emotionally consistent, Pickett is mastered by the energetic actor John Rice. By Rice's magic and that of director David Thomas, the energy flows, bursting forth in any number of excellent performances, in cluding Robin Stanley as a spirited girl matured by widowhood; Belinda Boyd as the liberated Kawina; Roger Kane as the witty John Grady; Anthony Evans Jr. as the wry Joseph and Margaret Brewington as the show-stopping Matilda. The large number of children in the cast makes the action revelant to any little one who can stay up til 11 p.m. No element of spectacle is spared in "The Liber'., Cart:" There are period dances, music and costumes, a wedding, hot-blooded fights, balloons, fireworks, a real squealing pig, orange drawers, field calls and spirituals, and a Wade in the Water procession, all pres ented on a clean sculpted set of layered platforms under the stars. But most importantly, these elements are all neces sary to the action and are part of the story, not just thrown in for their effect. People dance because they have to; their action is inte grated in the action of the story. When the characters' emotions build to a fight, we see thai they have to fight. Again, well constructed ac tion, well directed and performed, resulting in what every dramatist works for, making the audience care about the characters. Caring about the audience appears to be what James F. Strickland, president of the Duplin Outdoor Drama Soci ety works for. In a snap, like his stage counterpart, Strickland provides foam cushions, refreshments, the handsome souvenir program and a warm welcome. The welcome and cushions are free, the rest is reasonable. A bargain at $3, the program provides, in addition to the usual cast information, a full history of Duplin County and of outdoor drama, and the impressive history of the beginnings of "The Liberty Cart," which dates to 1949. In a statement resembling an apology, the program defends outdoor drama on the basis of its acclimating the unenlightened to live theater. "The Liberty Cart" needs no such defense. It stands on its own two wheels, an example of the best. And it proves there's no reason why the best shouldn't be the same, indoors as well as out. Christine Rusch With 40 different problems challenge you; If you can still their Clamor, soothe their spirits And in each mind implant a purpose true; If you can keep all happy and contented. Tiiough one would often drive his parents wild; If you can find it in your heart to love them. Attractive or unkempt as they may be; If you cart see not what is on the surface But in each child possi bility. If you can wake in each a thirst for knowledge. Then satisfy that thirst from day to day. If you can stir within each heart an interest, So that his lessons seem not work, but play; If you can meet these never ending problems As well we know you have done o'er and o'er; Then you have won our gratitude undying, Our staunch support is yours forever more.
