[TheWay I See It ?? 4 The Virtma of a CUm Life ?* ( opynght, ?9*4 My grcm-au* Margaret LiHtaii Shavers. was one of the best people 1 saveever known. She was also one of ?be aweiest See bad a heart of gold She never named, and li ued 10 be % yean old. For year* she lived ai the home place with her bachelor brother. Wardell lairas When he died in 1947. Aim Margaret had lap Stewart to come room at her house and help with the chores. My mother was her fovortte niece Probably the reason was that tke took care of my mother for extended periods of time when dm was little. Gramhna and Grandpa lived just across a field aad the railroad tracks from her howae, and the distance could be walked to two or three minutes Gramhna was never blessed with excellent health, though she lived to be 88 years old. So when she was young, and having children, she was ofien in need of help She got help, and plenty of it, from Margaret (her name was actually spelled Margarette), and from her other sister, Mattie Cornelia My mother was the oldest, and spent the most time at Margaret's house of any of Grandma's younguns People used to ay Margaret was quair But she wa not, at least to us six children We thought tbt was wonderful She always bad a dog and scat around We could use her mule and wagon when we needed it. She always had some buttermilk around, and some strawberries, and the biggest fig tree in Pembroke. She always had a smokehouse full of meat. too. 1 can remember vividly Mister Jap cutting a piece of ham or shoulder off and giving it to us. We would eat it right out of the smokehouse. The heavy smoke cunng meant the meat did not even had to be cooked One tune Awl Margaret had a huge bed of strawbemes. The year was about 1954, and the strawbemes were duck and full that year. She let me pick them, and take them to town to sell them. We got 35c a quart for them. When 1 took her the money, she would not take it from me. She made me keep it . She knew we needed food at home. I had very little money in those days, especially in the spring The only time I saw much money was when Charlie Sampson and Tecumseh Brayboy paid us at the end of tobacco selling season. So that strawberry money really helped Aim Margaret cold eggs to make put money. Sae sold them year roand for 50c a dozen, do matter what the stores were getting. If the store eggs cost 30c. Mist Margaret sold here for 50c. If the store eggs were 70c. hers still went for 50c . She only sold them to steady customers, who got them for years from her.'I can still see her with her hat on walking into Pembroke to take a few dozen eggs to the white ladies she had as steady customers She lived her whole life and never owned or drove a car She walked most of the places she went. She was too trusting of people. She believed what people told her they owed her. Before she died, she told me how she knew one man had stolen thousands of dollars from her That still saddens me. She would give you the shirt off berback. In 1961, after 1 had gone to college for a year and worked in the tobacco fields of Eastern Carolina for the summer to pay offa loan, I had po money to pay my tuition. 1 was discussing this with grandma, i Margaret went o her room and came back with S900 cash, which she gave me That let me go another year to college, with the jobs i got. I will always be grate fill to her for that.'

I Cameron's Comment By Paul Cameron If Nascar won't update their points system to determine a Winston Cup champion, why can't there be a special award to the driver who wins the most races during a seaSon'' I've long fielt there should be some incentive for most wins. Because the point system reflects consistency and not bow many trips to victory land a driver makes. Nascar should consider making a special award to go hand in hand with its annual Winston Cup Championship. Aren't the post season baseball awards ridiculous? I could see gi ving Greg Maddux of the Braces his third straight Cy Young Award-he was Ifeaa WF" shoulders above the rest of the NL's pitchers-but trying to choose a MVP with the stretch run of the season to come is impossible. That missing month and a half of the season is where most valuables are made. Somebody carries a team to the pennant And that somebody is the MVP in my book. The NBA sure knows how to get some positive ink After hinting all fall there might be a lockout if the players don't come to terms on a new collective bargaining agreement, the NBA pul Is a public relations coup be announcing an agreement with players for no lock out and no strike through the season. If only baseball and hockey was as public relations oriented.
