Along The Routes !
By John Follett
i doubt if the swing from Tru
man to Eisenhower in the presiden
tial preference poll which this col
umn has been conducting Along the
Routes has any’ more significance
I han that* for the past two weeks I
just happened to be working among
! peohle who, prefer th“ general. Tn
■ other words I doubt that it shows
any swing awaydrom the President
r.n the part rs his supporters. I mi- i
tend to explore that angle this
next week. But whatever they mean,
here arc the figures: Eisenhower i
35'.', Taft 15';, a change from!
Truman 13%, Mar Arthur (i 1 _■ %, any (
iiemocrst 4*4, and John L. Lewis.
4'i';;. 21 1 S"; of the people inter
viewed would express no opinion, a
somewhat smaller number than in
revious weeks.
I am very glad to report that
fU"' of the people I talked to stat
ed that they customarily vote. One
young man said that he has newer
Voted before but he “sure will this
time.”
One more point might be reported.
A significant number of people I
talked to predicted that Truman
will run and will be reelected in
spite of the fact that they hope
he will not.
PLEASANT MEETING
Getting away from politics, per
n haps the pleasantest encounter I
- had Along the Routes was with
Miss Winona Jane Strickland,
daughter of Mr. and Mr 3. Ed F.
Strickland of Fairground Road at
the edge of Dunn. Miss Strickland
is 5. I met her on a cold, dull, and
wintry day, but her smile and sunny
greeting made a warm glow in her
vicinity. I might add that she seem
ed not to feel the cold herself, for
she was hatless and ccatlcss.
! When I saw her father’s Henry J
and told Winona that I too drive
such a car, she informed me, "So;
i do V !
i ,
I back last week to see
1 mvlie of my eldest friends Along tic
] Routes: namely Gloria and Charles
i Roderick Stewart, children of Mr.
and Mrs. Charies H. Stewart. They
| have moved from the little hoii.se
jhv the ra.lroad tracks north of
Dunn to a much niedr white fa-m I
house on the other side of the
Dunn Cemetery. Joe, the dog. no|
longer has to be kept tied, and little
sister Bonnie Lynn will not have
to be watched so carefully when
she gets old enough to be about.
At the Stewarts’ I saw something
which surely carried me back to
my boyhood: an Aladdin Kerosene ,
Lamp with’a mantle. I hate to count
the number of years that have gone
by since I studied by tfie light of
such a lamp.
Spring had definitely arrived last
week Along the Routes. Daffodils
and flowering quince and forsythia
I, were in full bloom. Then came

ROBIN GETS MEMORIAL
! NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (IP-
High up on an arch in the recent
ly-completed St. Martin’s Church
here is a stone bird’s ne*t with
a sculptured robin in it. It is the
same spot, where a robin built its
n st during the construction of
the church. Workmen carefully
worked around the bird while it
I hatched its young.

Winter’s comeback. Most of the
flowers were nipped. Which leads
,me to ask the question, “Are there
groundhogs in North Carolina, and
does anyone care if the groundhog
sees his shadow on February 2nd.,
and so returns to his hole for six
more weeks of winter?
When I was a boy up north we
always hoped for a cloudy day on
