AFTER 100 YEARS, IN HARNETT t j t ; ’ f . -J. . . _ A •; -It*. They're Doing The Virginia Reel Newspaper Costs To Rise Again NEW YORK TO Newsprint prices, which have held steady since the middle of 1952, will go up “in the foreseeable future.” the head of one of the world’s biggest newsprint manufacturers said yes terday.

There, between Hodges Motel and the home of Mrs. Nathan Johnson, was a group of the cutest, quaintest children who ever made a traffic block. The road happened to be the only place large enough for the children to practice “The Virginia Reel,” which they will present as their contribution to the Centen nial. It just shows how far Dunn will go to make its Centennial a success. Only days away now, the Centen nial is already so much a part of the lives of many persons here that you don’t have to go far to find somebody who feels like he has been kicked by a horse. Literally dozens of people—from Congressmen to entirely innocent second-graders—have felt the im pact of the great celebration which Harnett is planning. Committee chairmen, performers of various kinds, all the hundreds of workers necessary to produce the different events have been running themsel ves blind, dumb, and ragged to en sure a success. The Centennial itself will not be ragged. There is every Indication that ©ext week will be one of the fullest in the hundred years of Harnett’s existence.

Every town in the county will have its own “moment” during the Centennial—a day when the focus of attention will shift to their acti vities. And Dunn will have the final say. Winding up the Centen nial on Saturday, Oct. 15. it has planned a full slate of events— enough to keep the town in the air until it’s all over that night. Saturday morning there will be a big street parade. One of toe latest groups to announce them participation is the Shriners’ Ori ental band, and there will be many others. Fort Bragg is sending a band. So is Dunn High—and Har nett High.

Those who miss Faye everywhere else—she’ll spend a lot of time in Harnett county during the Cent ennial—can see her on Saturday at Prince’s department store where she will model fashions of other years. Mrs. Nathan Johnson, chairman of woman’s activities, has announ ced an exteremely full schedule, including tours that will enable the public to see and visit old and his toric homes of this area.

If successful Erwin residents will soon be getting home delivery of their letters—just like everybody else in the country.
