moved (across the street) into
their modern and spacious
new store with 2400 square

the work ethic, and gives his
father (the late and beloved
John Winston Locklear) the
lion's share of credit for
teaching him how to work on
the family farm near the
Sctoland County line where he
grew up as a boy. Carlon is
fond of saying, "Hard work
never hurt anyone," and he
practices what he preaches.
He seems to be passing
the work ethic on to his
children, and they seem to be
doing just fine.
The Locklears are well
respected in the Maxton
business community and they
invite all their friends to come
out and visit them in their new
store "right across the street
where we've always been" on
the out skirts of Maxton. The
Locklears are still as friendly
as ever- the qo\y change i
