WHAT'S THE USB ?
"North Carolina needs a Mar
? ahal Foch to tell motorists that
" 'they shall not pass,' " Ronald
Hocutt, director of the Highway
Safety Division, declared this
week In commenting on t?he fact
that several people were killed in
the state last month as a result
of improper passing on the high
ways.
Hocutb said close to 30 persons
have been killed in North Caro-i
lina this year as a result of pass- j
ing or attempting to pass on cur
ves, on the crest of hills, at inter-!
?actions and at other places where j
common sense should have told
them it was dangerous to pass.
"Knowing where to pass is ini-|
portent, but it is just as important
if not more so to know when to(
pass and how to pass," Hocutt'
said. "When you have overtaken!
another car and wish to pass it
be sure there is suflicient' space
ahead. Give a left turn signal to,
notify the driver behind you that
you are changing lanes. Thenj
sound your horn so that the drlv-!
er in from* will know that you
intend to pass. Look to the rear
to see If any car is passing you.
Always pass the other car ou the
left. A good way to judge whenj
you are safely past a car is when
you see t'he left headlight in your'
mirror. Then you can return tot
the right hand side of the road."i
Good advice. But after all;
this what's the use?
MOTHEK SH1PTO.VS
PROPHKCY
Following is a clipping from the
Sampson Independent, of Clinton,;
concerning uhe prophecy of Moth-1
?r Shipton. who was born in Nor
folk, England, and died in 1449.
48 years before Columbus discov-;
ered America.
A Carriage without horses shall
go;
Disasters All the world with woe;
In London. Primrose Hill shall be.
Its center hold, a bishop see.
Around the world men's thoughts
shall fly
Quicker Mian the twinkle of an
eye.
And waters shall greut wonders
do ? |
How strange, and yet it shall i
come true.
Then upside down the world shall i
be,
And gold found at the root of
tree;
Through lowering hill proud men,
shall ride.
Nor horse nor ass move by his
side.
Beneath the waters men shall!
walk;
ttfeall ride, shall sleep and event
" talk.
And in the air men shall be seen, j
In white, in black, as well as<
green.
And great men shall come and go,
For prophecy declares it so.
In water, iron then shall float
As easy as a wooden boat*.
Gold shall be found in streams or
stone
In lands that are yet unknown.
Waters and fire shall wonders do,
And England (ball admit the Jew.
The Jew that once was held in |
scorn
Shall of a Christian I'hen be born.
A house of glass shall come to pass
In England? but alas! alas!
A war will follow with the work
Where dwells the Pagan and the
Turk.
The states wilt lock in tierce]
strife.
And seek to take each other's life |
When the North shall divide the,
South,
The eagle build In Lion's mouth, '
Then tax and flood and cruel war
Shall come to every humble door.
I
Three times shull sunny, lovely
France,
Be led to a bloody dance;
Before the people shall be free
The tyrant rulers shall she see
Three rulers In succession be> ?
Each sprung from different dy-j
nasty.
Then when the fiercest light is
done,
England and France shall be as
one.
The British olivet next shall twine
In marriage with the German
trine.
Men walk beneath and over
streams, I
Fulfilled shall ,bo our strangest!
dreams.
All England's sons shall plow the
, lands,
Shall oft' b* wvn with book In:,
hand. ' I,
I The poor shall now most wisdom
know,
1 And waters wind where corn did
grow.
Great houses stand in far-flung
?ale I
All coverecf o'er with snow and;
hail.
I
And now a word in uncouth rhyme!
Of what shall be in future time ? ,
For in those wondrous, far off
day?.
The women shall adopt a craze
To dress like men and trousers:
wear
And cut) oft their lovely curls of j
hair.
They'll ride astern with brazen >
brow.
As witches ou a broomstick now ; j
Then love shall dleajid marriage!
cease,
The wives shall fondle cats and ,
dogs
And men live much the sameas'
hogs.
lu nineteen hundred and twenty- j
six . ^ I
Build houses with * straw and |
sticks.
For then shall mighty war be
planned
And fire and sword sweep the
land.
But those who live the century
through
In fear and trembling this will do:
(W
Flee to the mountains and the
dens ?
To bog and forest and wild fens,
For storms shall rage and oceans
roar.
When Gabriel stands on sea and
shore,
And as he blows his wondrous
horn
Old world shall die and new be
born.

The boar should be a purebred
