Travel and Promotion Division BAKERSVILLE A. D. Harrell sat on a rock pile, placed the muzzle of the double-barreled shotgun against his lips and blew a long plaintive wail. It was louder than I expect ed and echoed through the hollow with ghostly rever beration. “From the top of one of these ridges,’’ he said, point ing to the Mitchell County terrain surrounding us, “you could hear that for a ..Wile or more.’’ Harrell owns a dairy flfliu near here. Some days there is just no time for grouse hunting. Yesterday, for example, in addition to daily milking and feeding chores, he played midwife to a cow and settled the estate of a deceased mule which came out on the short end of an encounter with a truck. But most Saturdays and many week days during the season he may be found poking around Mitchell and Yan cey county laurel “slicks” and rhododendron “hells” with his pointer' bitch and one or more friends and ME Sterling iii^ TO COMMEMORATE ITS 75TH YEAR j save 25% on WTTiUiin £.

Dick of Western Heights Baptist Church, Peters burg, Va., as guest evan gelist. Services will be held nightly at 7:30 o’clock through Friday. Mr. Dick received his theological training at the New Orleans Baptist Sem inary. He is married and has two children. The music will be under the direction of Woodrow Lowe. Rev. Johnnie Bradley, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Rocky Mount, will be preaching at Rocky Hock at 7:45 P. M. Mon day through Sunday, in cluding Saturday. He is well known in this area, guests. Today he was helping me host Jan Won grey, outdoor writer for a South Carolina newspaper. “Several years back,” Harrell continued, “I was grouse hunting not too far from here with a friend and somehow we got sep arated. Hoping he was within hearing distance, I blew my gun barrel, wait ed a few minutes, and blew it again. Well, it worked, and when we got together again my hunting partner told me about the darndest thing that hap pened. He said he was sitting on a stump resting when he heard me blow the barrel. Suddenly a boy came running down the mountain by him so fast he didn’t see my part ner sitting there. He stopped in a ditch down a ways from the stump and covered himself with leaves. Then when I blew the second time, the boy exploded from under the leaves and fled, obviously in panic, on down the mountain out of sight.” Wongrey winked at me and we hunkered down as Harrell went on with the story, THE CHOWAM HERALD, EDEWTOH, WORTH CAROUKA, THURSDAY, MARCH 13, lit*. Rot. Kenneth Gibson In Crusade having pastored here prior to going to Rocky Mount. Congregational singing and special music will be under the direction of Jack Evans. At Center Hill, Rev. Kenneth Gibson, pastor of Canton Baptist Church, Albemarle, will be guest evangelist. The services begin at 7:30 P. M. Sun day and continue through Saturday. Mr. Gibson taught in the public schools before en tering Kentucky Baptist College and later South eastern Baptist Seminary. A nursery is provided fcr each service and the public is cordially invited to attend. “I was teaching at the local high school at the time,” he said, “so I asked around among the stu dents. In a day or two I found the boy and inquir ed about what had hap pened. “ ‘I was deer huntin’ out of season up there,’ he told me, ‘and never had been that far from home by myself before, and I was g little uneasy. I don’t know whether I was scared of being caught or of being off by myself. Then about dark I heard this horn blow from way off. First thing jumped in my mind was that it was the end of time and Gab riel was blowin’ his horn. I figured the best place for me was with my kin. I thiew down my gun and ran down the mountain, but then I decided I’d be safe if I hid. So I cov ered up with leaves in a little ditch. But in a few minutes I heard Gabriel blow again and figured he’d seen me, so I lit out for the house. Course, when nothing came of it all night, I began to feel easy again’.” Wongrey and I found the story humorous but ex pressed good-natured doubt about its veracity. Now, A. D. Harrell is a man of unquestioned integrity and has never been reported to take liberty with the truth. When pressed, however, he admits that certain license is permitted in these mat ters when slight embellish ment of the facts makes for a better story. In any regard, Harrell takes no chances now on scaring boys in the woods. He carries a whistle. to (dfiemembel By tunvn BJUUUM Many of us can sum up those j simply stating: ‘1 want happiness for me and my family.” “To study without thinking is waste of time; To think without studying is dangerous.” We don’t particularly want this happiness handed to us—we want to feel we have deserved it through our own contributions and personal efforts. An inner-instinct tells us nothing worth- 4 * while is obtained without effort. Common sense tells us that roses will have thorns—and any adequate road bed has a hard-rock base. Four thousand years of recorded history has taught us this fact. One of our most unfair criticisms of others is: ‘They have had it handed to them.” Take a good look at our heritage. We cannot ignore our many great legacies—our freedom— our prosperity— our way of life! These were fought for and won by our forefathers. People who removed many thorns and labored on the hard-rock roadbeds. And didn’t they impi.nj most of the noble ideals within us? It is well that we remind ourselves that we, too, will be die forefathers of future genera* tions and we will be handing them something eitner good or bad.

I read in the Women’s Medical New Pamphlet an article on reasons for hurting feet and one doc tor states that when you purchase new shoes, one way to know if your toes will be pinched is to place your heel in the shoe and allow the remainder of the foot to rest over the shoe. Wherever your foot ex tends over the shoe, trouble brews. In another article which I read recently concerning school drop-outs, poverty and juvenile delinquency, the blame for much of these problems is Absent Fathers. Absent or weak fathers help to break up many families and children of such families have dif ficulty of becoming ma ture or responsible adults. When either parent, in fact, is absent because of death, divorce or separa tion, our society should find ways to fill the gap. No child should be allow ed to grow up without the companionship of adult men and women. ATTENTIONI Parents and young people, too.
