. FROM THE EDITOR'S CORNER By EDITOR JOHN ANDERSON Excluding Thanksiving Day, but including today, we’d like to be the first to inform Christmas shoppers that you have exactly 43 shopping days until Christ mas. That’s counting Decem ber 24th, too. It’s a time for rejoicing, mothers, fathers, for we know you are looking for ward with much anticipation to the numerous treks into town, up and down the busy streets, and into the crowd ed stores. But take heart! It will be over all to soon for those curtain - climbing, house demolition teams we refer to as “children.” Then it’s back to school and once again out of mother’s hair. Shop Brevard first! We arc always pleased when material from the TIMES is re published - with our permiss ion, of course. It is not only on occasional opportunity for add ed income for our staff, but also a compliment to our paper and a boost to our sense of pro fessional accomplishment. Such a compliment is the re publication of Cal Carpenter’s feature on the lawn work by the Brevard Sheltered Work shop. (Another feature on the Workshop is published in this week’s issue - page 14, section 2.) The feature material is used in the September-October issue of REACH, a magazine published by the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation of the State Department of Public in struction. It includes the pho tograph that Cal made on the lawn of Radio Staion WPNF ! last spring yes, the radio sta tion is one of the Workshop’s lawn-care clingts. ■ The Workshop, as noted m the article, is sponsored by the Brevarfc)j#aycces and receives considerable support from the Vocational Rehabilitation Divi sion as well as the United Fund. This week’s feature points out support also received from the U. S. Department of Agricul ture, the state Mental Health Division, and individual donors who appreciate the fine work Mike and Ruth Hunter are do ing at the shop. We would like to add our personal urgings to the United Fund appeal this year - for the Sheltered Workshop and the many other worthwhile causes it supports. The need for public support has never been greater and we hope everyone will give as generously as they possibly can. Although it’s" been used a lot lately, the U. F. reminder this year is all too true: “If you don’t do it, it won’t get done.’' Borrowed ... A traffic light Is a device designed to get people half way across the street safely.

The members of the hunt ing party had been asked to bring only male hounds. One near-indigent member, how ever, was down to his last hound, a female, and out of courtesy was permitted to include her. The pack was off in a flash. In seconds they were completely out of sight. The confused hunters stopped to question a farmer in a nearby field. “Did you see some hounds go by here?” “Yes,” he said. “And it was the first time I ever seen a fox runnin’ fifth1*” Recommendations From Principals (Continued from Page One) head front ey spent in the school shall be with the approval of the school head.” Eill Stanley Principal, Bre vard Senior High, reported the need for more parents as volun teer substitutes.
