LITTLETON Beaufort Faculty Member Our schools have an obligation to contribute to the development of the culture and character of an entire community, not only to those constituents who happen to fall between the ages of 6 to 18. 1 was wondering whether we in eastern North Carolina have not suffered culturally because our schools have failed to educate our communities themselves to the importance of original, critical thinking and the value of develop ing the whole man, especially in one's appreciations for the best of his heritage and culture. Surely, if that be true, I'm selfish enough to covet a position of Intellectual leadership for Beaufort High School in assuming our responsi bility to the community and the development of its cultural, men tal, and moral resources. To realize a school's obligation for educational leadership is not sufficient to bring about a school's acceptance of that challenge. I feel compelled to offer several reasons why this challenge was accepted. In the first place, the wealth of local history, folklore, and cultural heritage has been compelling. Our appreciations are inadequate be cause few of us have taken stock of the historical importance of our locality. Because the lore and heri tage of the past is familiar to us, we have perhaps taken for granted the significance of it. The trans mission of the folklore of this area has become so commonplace that we would never guess the tales and legends we unthinkingly relate to be close kin to the legendary material used in some of the world's greatest literature. This inheritance is ours through the goodness of Providence and those who in the past labored to preserve for future generations the inheritance that is rightfully ours. This was a powerful challenge. And then there was a second thing that encouraged the under taking of this column. We who live in Carteret County should count ourselves fortunate to have a local paper with the cultural slant which this paper has. The attention de voted to local color, local history, and crusades for local improve ments has truly been rewarding. We have, therefore, accepted this challenge not only because of the wealth of material with which to work but also because of the ex cellent medium through which to work? the Carteret County News Times. It logically follows that some statement should be given as to the purpose for this column. Yet in giving our purposes, we find not one purpose, but several. This column was begun for (1) the dis semination of information which we believe to be of interest to local readers, for (2) the development of a greater appreciation for our local culture and heritage, for (3) the stimulation of original and creative thinking, for (4) the pro vision of an incentive for creative writing and noteworthy research on the part of our students, and for (5) the establishment of better public relations between the school and the public that it serves. In future columns we hope to stimulate the readers to thought with the discussion of pertinent issues, educational theories, and observations in general. For our students, we hope this column will be an encouragement to develop their talents and to find an au dience for their creative writing. For the readers, we trust that this will afford an insight into the work and operations of your school, giving you some assurance that we itill endeavor to teach your child and prepare him to con tribute admirably to his age. All in all, we hope those con nected with our school will become BURNS CLEANER NO SMOKI, NO ODOR J. M. DAVIS DbMtator Taxaco Products I fawtoaa, ?? proud of its accomplishment!, it* scholars, and its influence is we are. For one's loyalty and dedi cation to any institution is com mensurate with his appreciation and admiration of it. Some of our students have chosen to express their thoughts in verse. The first poem, Shadows, was written by Monya Eubanks during her sophomore year. Monya is now a junior. The second poem. Reflections, was written by Linda Salter, one of our seniors. Shadows Dark and mellow in the night Come the shadows into sight. Soft and tender, they caress; Show the world at its best. Secrets are their specialty, But won't record a melody. Many are the things they see We wouldn't want told, would we? But they'll be gone upon their way With the dawn of another day. ?Monya Eubanks Reflections A knock on the door in the moon light, A soft voice that drifts from the dark. The whisper of wind in a grey dawn, Or starlight that lingers in sparks. Man's life is gone in a dancing Reflection of light on a hill; He leaves no more trace that he's been there Than echoes that, fading, grow still.
