\~As~r% ; SEEITJ by | Bruce Barton Bruce Barton is out this week with illness. He solicits your prayers as he convales ces. He will return next week to continue his column, "As I See It." &SENIOR CITIZEN'S CORNER & Jr KURIL KXAS FOR SUCCESSFUL RFTKMENT LUC it Mori A popular misconception is that someone who has liv ed to a ripe old age is fully en titled to be a grumpy old grouch. It is not the true nature of man or woman to be con stantly cantankerous. When a horse kicks, leaps, and gen erally runs wild, the best thing to do is look under the saddle blanket for a burr or some source of irritation. Although some individuals are grouchy and complain constantly, people aren't na turally mean and ornery. Something makes them that way. Many times, individuals with health problems feel pain or discomfort and are quick to strike out at every one and everything. If they feel poorly, why should the rest of the world be happy? Sometimes, unpleasant ex periences of the accumula tion of small disappoint ments and imagined failures will turn an average person into a crabby sourpuss. But, neither age nor wear and-tear give anyone the right to be rude, unthought ful and constantly critical of others. Old age is a blessing and should be recognized as such. Age gives no license to for ego good manners. We should stop making excuses for gramps, "because, after all, he's 89 years old," and tell him that he should have learned in all that time that he has no right to try to make other people miserable and uncomfortable by his words and actions. No matter how long one lives, life is still too short to allow much of it to be wast ed with unpleasantness. Moos Over Miasma A climatologisi says too tittle is known to accurately h edict changes in the atmo sphere brought on by rising temperatures due to the in crease in carbon monoxide. John Griffiths, who has stu died Texas weathgr patterns for 20 years, says we may see a one-degree temperature i n crease on the Earth's sur face in the next 40-50 years if the present rate of fossil fuels burning continues. And that could be enough to begin melting the polar ice caps. ATaleofTwoStllies America's next war is more likely to be conventional ra ther than nuclear, although armed conflict in space be tween the U.S. and the U.S. S.R. also looms as a reality. If the two superpowers get through the next decade with out a major conflict on the Earth's surface, the chances of a war in space will be much greater, predicts the head of a strategic think tank. Protect Furniture Low humidity causes wood en furniture to dry and crack. If you do not have a humidi fier, put a saturated sponge in a bowl and place them in side the cupboard or chest to protect it. Frozen Fruits If frozen fruits are allow ed to thaw completely, they will lose their juiciness and shape. Serve frozen fruits while they still have ice crys tals in them. Velvety Chocolate When making hot cocoa, simmer the cocoa powder in water about five minutes be fore adding milk and sugar. This breaks down the starch and gives a more velvety cup of hot chocolate. jOOOOOtOOOOOQOOOQQQQQSMMMMMMMWMMfliMMflQQQ A NEW BOOK BY BRUCE BARTON, editor of THE CAROLINA INDIAN VOICE % [An Indian Manifrnol NOW ?Ml ? klllltM * INI ???!

T i ?' , ? i it .1 To the Editor: For Robeson Technical Col lege to ask support of an eight (8) million dollar bond refer endum at this or any other time for any unwarranted purpose is ridiculous. Want to know why? First, there is extremely high unemployment in Robe son County. Second, those that are fortunate enough to have a job are working for the minimum wage, maybe a little more or less. Third, unemployment and how wages contribute nothing to support an eight (8) million dollar debt. Fourth, in my opinion, the politicians give away too much to industry per low tax levy. low. low wages and other assets that are being taken out of Robeson County. Fifth, politicians at the state level will not allow high tech or skilled type industry to locate in Robeson County, in my opinion. Sixth, if after eighteen (18) years RTC cannot or has not become self-supporting, it is I time ta| close it down, along with Hilly Branch Vocational Training, and channel these funds through the high school where it should have been from the beginning. Seven, duplication is being practiced with wild abandoir by RTC and HBVT. This turns out to be a double expense for the voter-taxpayer, and it places the school system in double jeopardy. The voter-taxpayer is ask ing the Robeson County Board of Education and the Robeson County Commission ers tc put a stop to this thought of financial destruc tion to our school system. I hope those elected to the board of education and as county commissioners will not agree to pay room rent to Southeastern General Hospi tal for RTC. This, in iny opinion, would be ridiculously stupid. P.S. Be sure to send Bruce Barton your subscription for the CIV. John L.

So fittingly we honor our Pioneer Fathers MEANDERING J WITH GARR7L!BART0N The Beast was harmless until through someone's carelessness the lid was taken off. As soon as the seal was broken, he changed into a blood-thirsty, cold-blooded # predator wreaking havoc and honor and leaving death and destruction in his wake. A little girl was riding her bicycle along the edge of the road. The Beast stalked her. He hit her with one mighty swipe, leaving her bleeding and mangled in a filthy, stinking, muddy ditch only to die later on her way to the hospital. This could have been your little girl just as easy as it could have been mine. Unfortunately, the Beast's thirst for blood was not quenched. His insatiable hunger of course was not appeased. Luckily the Beast was caught. But, again, through someone's stupidity, care lessness or neglect--or a little bit of all three-he was set loose upon the innocent, unsuspecting public once again. But this time, as soon as the lid was opened, the Beast went on yet another bloody rampage, this time striking oh so close to me. He attacked my sister just about a mile from her home. The attack was so ruthless, brutal and violent that even the Beast was wounded. His wounds proved to be superficial. He recovered. Her wounds were fatal. She perished. And I still feel the afteraffects of this cold-blooded, premeditated murder. It seems ironic to me. Her name was Ruth. The Beast was callous and ruthless in his cold-hearted disregard for life or limb. And now I'm Ruth-less. It just don't seem fair. It just don't seem right. Unfortunately, they turned the Beast loose again. Turned him loose to kill again. And he will. The next time he could strike close to your home. 'Cause the Beast doesn't only prowl in Burlington where the attack on my sister took place. No, indeed. Everywhere is his stomping grounds. He definitely gets around. And every time you sit behind the steering wheel of a car you become prey to the Beast. And he'll eventually get you if you don't keep ever vigilant, ever on the lookout for his irratic, unpredictable behavior. Keep your eyes peeled for the swerving, unsteady manner in which he travels. It will give him away every time. Yes. The Beast is a drunk driver~a menace to every God fearing man or? woman because you never know when or where he will strike next. But like a Tornado you know where he's been by the trail of destruction, despail. death, honor, sorrow and general havoc it leaves behind. Please don't drink and drive. The life you save may be the life of another one of my loved ones. Or yours! Or mine. Or my children. Oh God! Please, please! Don't drink and drive. And if you see a drunk driver on the road, report him to the proper authorities. Be careful out there. If one baseball is tossed horizontally while at the same in stant a second baseball is dropped vertically from the same height, both of them will reach the ground simultaneously.
