If you haven’t visited the
New Bern Public Library re
cently, you should certainly do
so. In addition to the books
appealing to teen agers that
have been on the shelves there
for some time, there are many
new ones.
You can find reading matter
on almost every subject. In
cluding a number of volumes
dealing with the space age.
With leisure time during sum
mer vacation, all of us should
fill some of the hours with
books.

We can also catch up on our
letter writing. We may have a
good excuse for not writing
many letters when we’re at
tending school, but in summer
it’s a different story for most
of us.
Each week, on this page, The
Mirror lists the Top Ten Tunes
of The Week. Can you recall
the most popular songs of a
year ago? Without reading
further, make your list and see
how many you will get right.
The No. I tune on June 21,

fourth, and Johnny Tillotson’s
‘‘It Keeps Right On Hurting”
was fifth. The song rated sixth
was Bobby Vinton’s‘‘Roses Are
Red.”
Joe Henderson’s ‘‘Snap Your
Fingers” was the seventh most
popular recording, and “Play
boy” by the Marvelettes was
eighth. Emilo Perlcoli’s ‘‘Al
Di La” and “The One Who
Really Loves Me” by Mary
Wells rounded out the Top Ten.
And now, let’s turn to our
wise sayings for this week.
‘‘Sincerity,” wrote Mary Baker
Eddy, ‘‘is more successful than
genius or talent.” And Oliver
Wendell Holmes said, ‘‘A
thought Is often original, though
you have uttered It a hundred
times,”
Last but not least, Henry
George observed that “Social
progress makes the well-being
of all more and more the busi
ness of each.”

annual events as the Mountain
Dance and Folk festival, the
Southern Highland Handicraft
Fair, and the Mountain Youth
Jamboree. Throughout western
North Carolina, folk music is
as much a part of the scene
as towering mountain peaks.
We have no mountain peaks,
here in the coast country. The
closest thing to it are our sand
dunes bordering the Atlantic,
and most of these have been
reduced to lesser dimensions
by periodic hurricanes and real
estate promoters.
However, David Whitty and
Tommy Lewis are demonstrat
ing in tuneful fashion that you
can be just as good a folk
singer in the Land of Enchant
ing Waters as you can in the
Land of the Sky. Strictly on
their own, they are pioneering
here in a movement that may
reach considerable propor
tions.
Meanwhile, we salute them
for their talent, their initiative,
and their wisdom In sticking
to authentic presentation of the
songs they sing.
