Has disappeared and only die.sel Engines shake my shack. That lonesome whistle once I heard, That used to thrill me so. Is but a memory of days I never more shall know. The steaming stack, the smoke and steam That used to scent the air With charcoal odors, are no more. But only I now care. Like some sweet relic from the past. The cannon, too. is gone. They call that "progress,” yet for me Its beauty lingers on. Those diesel fumes that fill the air With gas as foul as sin. Are not for those who dare to dream It may take steam to win. To win the fight for energy. And make us strong once more. WHY "Why do you wish to write?" he said. "What con a Lumbee say?" His face was grave, he shook his head. His features wreathed dismay- 1, in dismay as great as his. Was wont to make reply. "The reason, sir. the reason is—" [ looked him in the eye. "I know now why 1 have to write. I only know 1 do." A gentle smile began to wreathe Itself on features new, "All right," he said, "I only thought You had an axe to grind." He spread the contract he had brought. I bowed my head and signed.

(Druce Barton photo) Fifteen Pembroke Senior High School students have participated in an unusual program this school year. These students have taken an active pan in a Special Reading Program at Union Elementary School where they have worked on a one-to-one basis, or with very small groups to supplement the instruction of the regular teacher. These students were transported to Union Elementary for one hour three days a week. High school students participating were Robin Campbell, Chuck Canady, Nancy Carter. Rita Cummings. Mary Davis. Abigail Chavis. Keith Jacobs, Brent Locklear. Shelia Locklear, Wanda Locklear. Michael Lowry. Michael Maynor, Tonya Thompson. William A. Lowry, and Travis Sampson. These students were supervised by Barto Clark. Jr., Pembroke Senior High teacher. Teachers at Union Elementarv School who participated were Mrs. Ethel O. Locklear, first grade; Mrs. Della O. Locklear, second grade; and Mrs. Annette Swett, third grade. From all reports from both students and the teachers, this has been both a rewarding and profitable’ experience. This was a special project of the leadership class taught by Mr. Barto Clark. Jr. at Pembroke Senior High School. Oh, Lord, let me a morsel find Of heaven for mv soul. And grant me freedom for my mind Apart from man's control. Oh. let me not fall into line With codes that shake or swa>. But let me find Truth's sacred shrine. Abide there day by day. It matters not what others think. Or w hat they preach or sa\. The Truth is 'Thine, the freedom's mine. Just keep me on the way. L^t me be mel L^l me be free! I need no vain taboos. Just speak Th> Word and undeterred. Thy chartered course I'll choose!

Decision will be made on talent, dress, poise and swim suit. They say we should stop the heartbeat Of fellow human beings. We who cannot bestow life Or even end our own strife! They say killing is all right. So long as it’s done as a group And in the name of Societ>! They say it's okay to kill a killer Or someone who raped in the night. But God commands, "Thou shalt not kill.' And a double killing doesn't make What was a single killing right. I resent this whore called Society- Forcing me to become a party to murder. Multiplied murders which 1 abhor And have no wish at all to commit In Society’s name or anyone eise's. Only God can give life. And only He has the right to take it.
