f At 9 a.m. the blind girl lay on the operating table. The
left side of her face grew numb from the local anesthetic, r She
Could neither feci nor see the surgeon operating on her left eye.
i At 9:18 she gasped with the shock of excitement she sud
denly could see the surgeon's gloved hand. Then the world
Went black again but this time from the darkness of bandages.
Twelve days later, with the bandages gone, light flooded
through the once useless eye of the 18year-old girl, giving the
World color, shape, and expression for the first time in 15 years.
Six months later, in another 20-minute operation, vision was re
stored to her right eye ...
Such is the work made possible through the funds obtained
by the North Carolina Association for the Blind in its annual
White Cane sale which will be conducted here next week by the
Morehead City Lions club.
Assisting the Lions in this campaign, part of their annual
Sight-conserving program, will be members of the Teen-Age club.
To each contributor during White Cane week a small red and
white badge will be given. Contributors of a dollar or more will
become members of the North Carolina Association for the Blind.
, One third of the money received from the sale of White Cane
badges will remain in this locality to finance local programs of
aid to the blind and sight conservation. The other two-thirds
'will go to tire Association for the Blind and will be used in the
expansion of its statewide program.
Exactly what does the association do with this money? It
pays for ve operations and hospitalization for needy persons, it
provides free examinations and eyeglasses to underprivileged
- school children, it helps to purchase equipment for blind per
'CJIons striving to make their own living through vocatiotis and
rills taught by trained ease-workers; it purchases white canes
r personal use by the visually handicapped, Braille slates and
her items needed by those who have impaired vision.
The contributions received during White Cane week will be
used to bring light to those in a
thankful that we can see and to
money for miracles . . . such as
the 18-year-old-girl. ,

THE UNINVITED Don't worry
too much if you were not invited
to the big barbecue held at Kerr
Scott's farm last Friday. Around
5,000 people were present in
cluding all of those you sec at big
meetings of this type but there
were still thousands Of other good
Democrats who did not participate
in the festivities. It was impos
sible lot the- World to get out to
everybody, and Kerr Scott wants!
you to know that he loves you just
the same. Anyway, the event Was
more or less open to the public, so
if you were not present, you really
have nobody but yourself to blame.
PRUNING As superintendent
of State 'Capitol Buildings and
Grounds, it is one of George Cher
ry's duties to see that the grounds
and trees about the State rtouse
are kept in good condition. Some
time back, Kerr Scott invited
George and his Wife up for a Sun
day meal In Alamance County. Af
ter the meal and dish-Washing, the
two couples Were in leisurely con
versation when Scttft leaned over
and said in a Stage Whisper to Mrs.
Cherry: "Don't you think We otrght
to prune tJebrge roufld January?"
R was Whoelheartedly agreed by
all present that the gentleman
from Bertie should hot be "prun
ed" in January or at any other
time.
FIRST ACHIEVEMENT Dur
ing the summer months for several
years now State employees have
been Working from 8:30 to 4:30
instead of from 9 o'clock until S.
NewThe State Employees Association
wants these hours put on a per
manent basis and last Saturday
morning had representatives meet
with Assistant Budget Director
Bob Deyton in regard to setting up
the 8:30-4:30 day. Although vari
ous State department heads were
invited to participate in the dis
cussion, none was present hut
representatives of the Association
were there.
On October 1, the old 9-5 sche
dule was to have gone back into
effect, but a recent survey shdw
ed that 83 per cent of the State
employees favor the present hours.
Lawrence went back to New Jer
sey Wednesday where they are em
ployed. Mr. and Mrs. Lee Gillikin, son
and daughter, of Williamsburg,
spent the weekend with their
folks and returned home Monday.
Mr. Jacob Lewis end Mr. S.
W. .Lawrence went to Beatffort
Thufusday on business.
Mrs. Floyd Lawrence, and Mrs.
Rumley Gillikin visited Mrs. B. B.
LaWrence Tuesday.
Mrs, ARon Gillikin, Mrs. Lemuel
Gillikin and Mrs. Vszell Lewis call
ed to see Mrs. Beulah Dowty Mon
day evening.
Mr. Rupert Lawrence spent a
few days with his sister at Sea
Level this week, Mrs. Alonza Thy
lor.
We are sorry to Say Hiat Mr.
Hardy LaWrence had the misfor
tune ot getting his leg badly cut,
and hid to he carried to Dr. Way
for treatment.
We are sorry to ay Mrs. B. IB.
Lawrence is still on the sick list.
Everyone would be glad to see Iter
up again.
HER DRZAM MEN
Deyton said he had no objections,
so it looks like 8:30 to 4:30 from
here on out.
TAKE WARNING The 52-20
cruDs, wnicn nave attracted so
much attention, will go out
through an Act of Congress on
July 1 next year. Self-employment
claims, which have come principal
ly from farmers In North Carolina
will go out at the same time. Cer
tain regularities have come-p in
regard to farmer's claims and a
Federal Court has these tinder
scrutiny in Shelby this week. The
Employment Security Commission
now has over 300 fraudulent Vet'
erans' and farmers' claims nndet
consideration in North Carolina,
There are approximately 200,000
of these in the United States, 3
000 in Massachusetts alone.
U. S. Attorney General Tom
Clark sent word to district attor
neys about a Month ago to 'crack
down" on these claims and Work
on them is now well under way in
North Carolina. So far, however,
Federal Judges have been very le
nient with Veterans Who have at
tempted to cheat Uncle Sam
through fraudulent claims.
SCHOOL TROUBLES Sthool
officials in Raleigh and throughout
the State know that a general over
hauling is needed in the North
Carolina educational set-up. This
is with reference to schoolhouses,
teacher load, teachers and curri
cula. Many a teacher this fall
has 40-50 pupils in her room, but
can get no relief because Of the
Shortage of space. Many an edu
cational plant is more of a barn
and a t iretrap than a Schoolhouse.
What to do?
A group known as the State
Education Commission has been
studying the situation for more
than a year, but cannot agree tm
the best way to attack It, 11 mem
bers wanting to go about it one
way and the other seven, another.
Although as. this is written the
minority and majority reports
have not been made public, the
main point of difference seems to
lie in the method to he followed
in financing a schoolhouse-buikiing
program. The majority report
wants the State to provide 80 per
cent of the funds for buildings,
with 20 per cent coming from the
counties. As it now stands, local
school unite must build their build
ings but of course they just
aren't doing it. they were slipping
behind even before the War years,
and now it is almost an intolerable
situation.
If the 80-20 plan Is adopted by
the next Legislature, ft Will mean
that each of the 100 counties mast
raise i tremendous sum of money,
Thus the State, which many years
ago put ah end th the 1aes on
land for ase by the Stat, Will find
itself arm-in-arm With the counties
in a land-tax program. But the
counties will do the collecting.
The papers and the radio should
be full of the plans this Week
Read and Study them carefully,
lor they affect you; your children,
and yOur pockefbook. Incidentally,
the story behind the programs Is
extremely interesting. , -
CHANGES DEEDED? Baclt

people thought they had a good
State Agriculture DenaVrnien'L
but when Kerr Scott liecatnt CUm-
tnissioner in 1937 they found, alas,
that this department was in a de
plorable condition. Scott jacked it
up and made it click. He revamp
ed it, let air in the windows, and
developed it Into one of the most
efficient agriculture departments
in the nation.
For years now we have been

Here 1 am aeain folks (much to
your Tegret 1 suppose),' ready to
relate the doings of the Morehead
City Teen-Agers. Lots of things
happened to start school off with a
bang so I guess I'd better start
telling hadn't I?
First of all, We have several hew
teachers this year and already you
can tell that they are going to be
just wonderful and on behalf of
the other students I'd like to wel
come fhem to "our faculty.

should take is Sociology ars Itl
Such an interesting course that
y0o don't even want te go to sleep,
really ybu don't! AH ' kidrfKng

you one trnit of credit toward gra

accompanied the singing on the
piano. Dr. Bunn led in our devo

that three things speaker shoold
do are: XI) stand-up, SO everyone

everyone tan heat you, iZ) Mid
shut-up, so everyone Win like youH
But seridusly, he had some good
points fa "his "speech Mid 1 Jotted

might like to read them - "Only
road to success is work, there is
no shortcut , . you're always
happier if you obey laws . . teach

Our auditorium is something to
be proud of this year. In order to
be able to see the movies that are
shown out at school (and also to
improve the looks) we have had

Thad N. Wallace Cited
For Bravery by O&R Officer
At 0930, Wednesday, 21 July
1948, smoke was observed coming
from the cockpit of an F4U on
the assemblyline. Thad M. Wal
lace immediately disconnected the
battery terminal, seized a carbon
dioxide fire extinguisher, and with
complete disregard of smoke and
danger, went into the cockpit of
the plane and extinguished the
fire.
This prompt action on the part
of Mr. Wallace averted what could
have been a much more serious
fire for the fuel tank installed on
the airplane was filled with gas
oline. Mr. Wallace, an instructor in the
Assembly Division of O&R, has re
ceived the following letter from
the O&R officer, for his valor and
ready response to the emergency:
"At 0930 on 21 July 1948, a very
serious fire was averted in an F4U
aircraft, located in the large han
gar of the Aircraft Overhaul build
ing, by your prompt action and
clear thinking. You displayed ex
cellent judgment m. the method
you chose to extinguish this fire,
and the initiative demonstrated in
this case was all that could be
expected. Action of this kind is
invaluable to this Department and
to the Government service as a
whole. You are commended for
your excellent action In handling
this emergency situation."
Now living with his wife and
two children in Havelock, Mr. Wal
lace states that most of hisjjfe
has been spent in "Little" Wash
ington. He began his career in air
craft work in March 1942, at the
Consolidated,-Vultee plaht m Eliza
beth City, N. C, and entered on
duty in O&R as an aircraft mech
anic in April of. 1945.
