Carolinians have lost their lives in traffic accidents, and with the growth of the small car population to conserve fuel, motor vehicle fatalities show every indication of continuing a relentless climb. In a collision between a sub compact and a full-sized car, occupants in the smaller car are eight times more likely to be killed. However, lower speeds clearly reduce the risk and severity of injuries. List your property with William F. Ainsley Realtor Hertford, N.C.

No less than our best is acceptable in our performance of that task. "While in many ways our role gets increasingly more challenging, so do the rewards of having done a tough job responsibly.

Jr. has unleashed his educated imagination Wheeler, a floral artist from Beaufort, guided the actnal construction and installation of the lath century decorations under a 22-page master plan developed after extensive research by the Tryon Palace Commission. He will perform the same function this year when Tryon Palace's llth century Christmas season opens on Dec. S. And, he plans to repeat some of the unique, smaller decorations that he devised last year in those areas where the servants of North Carolina's royal governors lived and worked. "The Christmas decorations inside Tryon Palace have to be elegant to recreate the at mosphere of splendor that Governor Tryon would have demanded in 1770 in keeping with his English furnishings, which has been reproduced here with what are now valuable antiques," Wheeler asserts. "But the servants who mack those decorations for Tryon Palace would have also at tempted to capture the joy of the seson in their surroundigs, too.

"Naturally, there is no such comparable information on the kinds of decorations the servants might hare had, so we had to use logic and make our best guess.
