Page 2-A GOLF NOTES - Next to books. I like golf better than . anything so this has been an exciting week for me. On Tuesday, I used a day of my vacation to enter the Ladies Invitational Tournament at Scotfield Country Club, a beautiful 18-hole golf course located between Scotland Neck and Enfield. Hazel Hedgepeth and I were the only entrants representing the Plymouth County and we both upheld the honor of the club - she took first place in the first flight and I split third place winnings in my flight. We were both so . exhilarated by our success that we stopped on the way home for nine holes of practice at the Williamston course where we will soon be playing in the Roanoke League finals. - Along with a dozen or so other Plymouth golf enthusiasts, courtesy of Jeffery Dick and Weyerhaeuser, I spent the weekend watching instead of playing golf. Willie and Hazel Hedgepeth took me with them to the Raleigh Country Coub to watch the last two days of the Ladies Professional Golf Association tournament there. Watching the proettes proved much more tiring than playing 27 holes but it was a thrill to see them in action in person. SCREECHES A SAD NOTE Another member of the Pettigrew Library staff make a weekend trip but was not so lucky as I was. Kim Varin, Washington County librarian, met with an automobile accident on his way ' back from Roanoke, Virginia. Details are lacking at this point, but my information is that he ; was unhurt although his car was • seriously damaged and there was injuries to the other persons involved. HOOTS GENEALOGY BOODS A subject of great interest of a growing number of people is family history, especially in an area as rich in history as this one: one of the orignial settlements of one of the thirteen original colonies. Some libraries have gained the reputation of disliking amateur genealogists. because of problems associated with tracing family trees. Although North Carolina has a unique system of interlibrary borrowing, genealogy books are 'bWhifeS-itKey can not be lent from one library to another. The reason for this is simple: they are frequently rare books and they are needed for reference work in the libraries which own them. Because they are almost always expensive, generlogy books cannot be purchased in large quantities by small libraries. But even the smallest library needs to own as much local history as possible and WEIGH LESS OR PAY NOTHING Start losing weight today OR MONEY BACK.

SANDKM Director fdtl|«wr Be«ieaal Library frequently this comes in the j form of gifts from local authors. I A case in point is the recent gift of two copies of the Bateman family history from Mr. Fred W. Bateman. This traces many families in Washington and. Tyrrell counties and should prove of interest to many local amateur genealogists. We ] always appreciate gifts of this sort. MOTHER I use to think of my Mother who was my guide everyday As one who was very mean when she wanted me to obey; It was only for my good for her love she did impart, Trying to keep me out of trouble for I was very dear to her heart. The life she lived before me was to help me to understand That I should be very careful when I tried to plan; To make my life a blessing in all that I say or do, By helping someone to see their need, “I want to be ready don’t you.” It was through her prayers when they reach Gods throne That God heard and answered, for he cares for his own; Sometimes I make mistakes if I try to do my best, But God has never failed when he was put to a test. I want to be faithful until my life shall end And go to meet my loveones on whom I did depend; While living here on earth with all of its sin and strife. There is a brighter day ahead and at the end eternal life. Although her steps grew feeble her love did not depart But took root on the inside deep down within my heart; pur bodies on earth may suffer while on earth we remain, And someday it will all be over for in heaven we will have no pain. Mother although we have missed you, we feel you are in a .better land Where moths and rust do not corrupt where there will be no parting hand; With God beipg my helper and my soon coming king. As long as we stand true we will hear the joy bells ring. Dalton Ward Tyner, N.C.
