While all you diehards were
witching the Skins get killed some
two weeks ago, ole I.B. was sitting
around with painful gout, thinking of
? same other way to follow up the top
1Q players mentioned in this column.
Just another way to create a little
talk in-and-around Rockftsh, Lake
wood, Duplin and Longmeadow.
W*hile riding around Duplin's layout,
1 fot to thinking about good shots,
gutgi putts, good this, and good that,
so I've come up with this list of
goodies.

It appears Wallace's Knott
Teachey and Harry Carlton, both
standout golfers playing out of
Rockfish CC, have made a bet that
may just be the talk of the town.
Knott, of Golden Skillet fame, a bit
rotund, became a major concern for
Harry, chairman of the Duplin
County BoaH of Health and an
executive with Ralph Carlton's Insu
rance Agency. Knott was overweight
and agreed to lose 30 pounds if
Harry would grow a mustache. Out
wardly, Harry was real encouraging,
knowing and believing that while
Knott would lose some weight, he
would not shed the full 30 pounds.
Now, Knott has done it and Harry
must! Shortly you will see emerging
under Harry's nose a new growth, a
badge, so to speak, of his constant
dedication to promote good health
among the people by encouraging
less fat and more lean. Even now
Harry's index Finger may be seen
checking the growth which Knott
rightly expects to reach handlebar
size and density. For Harry, it is a
time of concern as he experiments
with something untried and new.

a Along The Way
By Emily Killette r
The average taxpayer may often
express thoughts of doing away with
the present social services system.
Today welfare programs which
sprouted from the county homes of
the early 1900s pump millions of
dollars into the economy each year.
Despite taxpayers' dreams of
ending the welfare system, the job of
taking care of the disadvantaged
members of society has rested with
the government for more than 100
years. Aid to the handicapped was
one of the first social services
provided by the government and
then assistance for the elderly.
During the early 1900s homes were
founded in each county to house the
disadvantaged and orphans. Federal
assistance was extended to the blind
and elderly, which made up a great
majority of the persons housed in
countv homes bv the 1940s.
Duplin's county home was located
in Kenansville where the Depart
ment of Transportation is today. The
home, like other households, in
cluded tending farm animals and
vegetable production by the resi
dents who were physically able.
When the homes were first estab
lished they ran with very little cost to
the counties, but as the depression
ended, fewer people required public
assistance, making the homes more
of a financial burden.
According to the January 28, 1943
issue of the DUPLIN TIMES, the
Duplin County Board of Commis
sioners met in special session and
voted to sell the local home. The
facility was costing Duplin 54,000 a
vear to maintain and countv welfare
officials estimated only $2,000 would
be needed annually to support the
disadvantaged if they were lodged in
private dwellings. The home housed
nine individuals; the majority were
elderly or handicapped. Individuals
handicapped or elderly qualified for
both county and federal support.
The welfare department of Duplin
had found private dwellings for the
nine residents of the county home
and planned to pay each $25 per
month in support. The closing of the
home was expected to cut the cost of
the county welfare system in half.
The home consisted of 58 acres of
land and three buildings; totalled it
was estimated to have a value of
$5,000 to $7,500 at the time the
county commissioners voted to sell
the property. When the decision to
sell became final. Dr. G.V. Gooding
of the State Highway Department
submitted an offer of $7,000 for the
property. The offer was later ac
cepted by the county. The highway
department built a maintenance
shop and garage on the site.
Proceeds from the sale of the
county home were used toward
reducing Duplin's debt. Many of the
local people had wanted to use the
money to build an addition to the
agricultural building to provide more
office space for the growing number
ot workers employed with the local
ration board. Members of the ration
ing board were uneasy about the
crowded working conditions of their
office located in the Dail building of
Kenansville. The Board hoped to
gain more office space in order to
accommodate the rationing program
when it came into effect.
