IN NEW BERN TODAY
If you were asked what person
in history you would like to have
an hour’s conversation with, as one
friend to another, just whom would
you choose?
A New Bern Sunday school
teacher did pose that question the
other day, in a class to teen-agers.
Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Jackson
and George Washington all receiv
ed votes, but the overwhelming
choice was Pat Boone.
Some adults may consider Pat a
poor selection, knowing him princi
pally as a singer of popular songs
on Tv, but these youngsters came
up with some very good reasons
for picking him.
Disregarding completely his tal
ent as a vocalist, they told of his
church work and emphasized the
devotion he has for his family. One
of the ihembers of the class remind
ed the teacher that Pat is a Sunday
school teacher too, and sings in the
choir at his church.
As one girl put it, the popular
songster is “somebody you feel like
you could talk to.” It was unani
mously agreed that Pat wouldn’t
make you feel inferior or out of
place in his presence.
It was quite apparent that he is
has ing a very wholesome influence
on the millions of teen-agers who
listen to him regularly. Perhaps
Pat doesn’t realize himself how
tremendous that influence is.
Roy Rogers, the famed cowboy
star, is another entertainer who
lives the sort of life that brings
him deserved respect. He and his
wife now devote virtually all of
their time to worthy causes in gen
eral and their church in particular.
In addition, they have adopted
quite a number of orphan children
from lands all over the world. How
different and more commendable
is their standard of living than that
of some of the other celebrities in
the field of entertainment.

READ THE MIRROR WEEKLY
JMOT JUST A POSE—It’s more than make believe when our
latest Mirror Maid, Elizabeth Goer, takes pad and pencil
in hand. At the North Carolina convention of distributive
education clubs, she finished first in the job interview con
test. Because of this feat at Greensboro, the New Bern High
school senior will fly to Tacoma, Wash., for an expense-
paid trip and participation in the national contest.—Photo

CHRISTOPHER NEALE who asked
him if he knew any of the corners,
he says he told MR. NEALE that
he only knew one, that WILLIAM
DAVIS showed him. MR. NEALE
was riding on the same horse with
him, and they turned the horse
around to the corner and MR.
NEALE laid his switch on the tree
and said: “Is this the tree that MR.
DAVIS showed you?” The deponent
saith he knew where the corner
was by several marked trees, near
by and particularly an oak, which
had remarkably crooked limbs like
the CRANK OF A GRINDSTONE,
and he saith the corner is the
same, that he showed to MR. JONA
THAN PRICE and the same that
he swore to before MR. JAMES
DICKSON. (The Indians bent sap
lings along a trail, in order to point
the way, and “just as the twig ,1s
bent, the tree’s inclined”.)
