Colonial to Formally Open Its Remodeled Store Today Colonial Stores formally opens its remodeled Morehead City super market loday, and the company of ficials predict that the store will set the stage for a new concept in supermarket merchandising. Earl Thompson, store manager, says that while in recent years su permarkets hav.e been getting larg er and larger, with a correspond ing loss of customer contact, a new trend is now developing. “We believe this trend is in an average size store, large enough to provide all of the customers’ food needs and at the same time not too large to provide the per sonal attention that we know cus tomers want,” Mr. Thompson said. “We haven't lost faith in self-ser vice,” Mr. Thompson added, “but we definitely are convinced that today's customers want more per sonal attention.” ' In'remodeling and modernizing ft'Si,Mol‘ehead City store, Colonial has invested several thousand dol lars in its concept of personalized service. The meat department has been redesigned; however, it offers greater selection of self-service meats, but for the customer who wants a special cut of meat or wants to talk with the market man ager, Henry Rowe, the market is so designed that he is readily avail able. In enlarging the store, Colonial has redesigned the produce depart ment so that the produce man ager, Jack Jarman, is constantly able to help the customer, Mr. Thompson said. -While the store is almost doubled in size, the rede signed supermarket is not what Mr. Thompson describes as ‘so big that the customer wears herself out doing her shopping.” “Colonial’s store-designs and cus tomer services are based on a sys tem which the company has for de termining what women want when they shop. Nancy Carter, the com pany’s home economist, has thou sands of women “pen pals” who write and give her their thoughts as to what Colonial should do to please its customers.

ELIZABETH Crt-T, FAYETTEVILLE, GOLDSBORO, GREEN VILLE, JACKSONVILLE, RALEIGH, ROANOKE RAFIDG ANO TARBORO SERVICEMEN'S ACCOUNTS WELCOME tem come the ideas that Colonial puts into all of its new store de signs. For instance, Colonial found that women want easy-to-reach shelves and wide spacious aisles. The new ly remodeled store has them. In line with Colonial’s policy in stressing the “service” in self-ser vice, trained store personnel will be stationed throughout the store to assist customers. Checkout stands will be provided with latest type of automatic equipment, in cluding modern cash registers, to speed up the movement of the cus tomer through the checkout line. There will also be an entrance and exit easily reached from the park ing area. C. M. Tuttle, general manager, Raleigh division of Colonial Stores, is very enthusiastic about the en larged store facilities. “Our experience 'in the super market operation has taught its' that some customers prefer select ing ready cut meats while others want to discuss their needs with an experienced meat cutter. The Morehead City store will be sit uated to satisfy each type of cus tomer. Vacationing customers will more then ever enjoy the new pleasant atmosphere of the store while shopping in Morehead City during the summer season,” added Mr. Tuttle. Colonial handles only US govern ment-inspected cuts of beef among many other quality and low-priced food products. Colonial is one of the pioneer food store operators in North Caro lina. It opened one of the South’s first supermarkets in North Caro lina nearly 25 years ago. Prior to 1940, when Colonial name was adopted, the company’s stores were known as the Pender Stores. The company was founded in 1901 by David Pender in Tarboro. Many door prizes will be given away, plus many special food buys during the Grand Opening of the enlarged, remodeled Colonial su permarket, Mr. Thompson said. The contractor is Dawson Con struction Co. of Kinston and the realtor is Chalk and Gibbs of More head City. Swans boro Hopes To Organize Town Choral Group Organization of a community choral group for the Swansboro area is under way. Some plan ning and small scale activity have been carried on in the past, but it is hoped that with the summer season approaching, a lot more people will show their interest in singing. A meeting of those interested in forming a community choral group is scheduled for Monday, June 5, at 7:30 p.m. If this organizational meeting is successful, the choral group will meet every Monday night thereafter in the Swansboro elementary school. The group will be under the di rection of Leslie Edmonds and Dee Solomon. Edmonds is the band director for the Swansboro school, and Solomon is minister of music of the First Baptist church of Swansboro.

Beaufort Merchants Meet for Dinner The Beaufort Merchants associa tion met last night at the Surfside cafe. The merchants decided at an earlier meeting in May to schedule their regular meetings for the last Monday of each month and have dinner. They had been meeting the second Tuesday at the town hall. Death Penalty (Continued from Page 1) ing down the cheeks of hardened, veteran officers who too often see the ravaged bodies of victims of child molesters. There can be no doubt of the sincerity of many of those who deplore capital punishment. A real istic approach to the problem, however, demands that they weigh the right of innocent persons to live their lives free from fear of bestial killers against statistical arguments which boast of how few murderers kill again after “rehabilitation” and release. No one, unless he can probe the mind of every potential killer, can say with any authority whatsoever that capital punishment is not a deterrent. As one police officer has asked, how can these “author ities” possibly know how many people are not on death row be cause of the deterrent effect of executions? Maudlin viewers of the death penalty call the most wanton slay er a “child of God” who should not be executed regardless of how heinous his crime may be because “God created man in his own im age, in the image of God created he him.” (Genesis 1:27) Was not this small, blonde 6-year-old girl a child of God? She was choked, beaten, and raped by a sex fiend whose preg nant wife reportedly helped him lure the innocent child into his car and who sat and watched the as sault on the screaming youngster. And when he completed his in human deed, the wife, herself bringing a life into the world, al- j legedly killed the child with sev eral savage blows with a tire iron. The husband has been sentenced to death. Words and words and words may be written, but no plea in favor of the death penalty can! be more horribly eloquent than the sight of the battered, sexually assaulted bodv of this child, truly a “child of God.” The proponents of “rehabilita tion” for all murderers quote those portions of the Bible which they believe support their lavender-and- j old-lace world where evil is nei ther recognized nor allowed. But the Bible clearly reveals that en forcement of moral justice is noth-; ing new to our age. In fact, in referring to man as the “image of God,” the Old Testa ment, so freely quoted by oppon ents of the death penalty, also states, “Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God! made he man.” (Genesis 9:6) There are many passages in the Old Testament which refer to cap ital punishment being necessary to enforce the laws of society. Since the Old Testament was written about and to a nation while the New Testament was written to individuals and to a nonpolitical body known as the Church, there is a difference in emphasis and approach. Certain ly, however, the moral laws of the Old Testament remain with us to day. Misguided do-gooders frequently quote the Sixth Commandment, “Thou shalt not kill,” to prove that capital punishment is wrong. This Commandment in the 20th chapter, verse 13, of Exodus has also been interpreted to mean: “Thou shalt do no murder.” Then the 21st chapter, verse 12, says, “He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall be surely put to death.” We can no more change the application to our society of this basic moral law in the Old Testament than we can change the meaning of Leviticus 19:18: “thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself,” which Jesus quoted in the New Testament. “To “love thy neighbor” is to protect him; capital punishment acts as at least one wall to afford “God’s children” protection. Very truly yours, John Edgar Hoover Director, FBI 28 Attend School Twenty-eight enrolled yesterday morning at the Travel Host school, recreation building, Morehead City.
