We Are Grateful
A check for $5.00 for the build
ing fund from Mr. J. William Lime
$2.00 from Janie, Virginia an
James Gilliland, Macon, and $1.0
for the book fund from Mrs. R. I
Rodwell, Norlina, have been lei
with the librarian during the weel
We are very grateful.
All In the Day's Work
The library year closed on Jun
30th. Beginning a new year neces
sitates a new record book for th
circulation department which, nor
mally, is about the only expense in
cident thereto. It happened thl
time that our accession book ha
ben filled and a new one was need
ed, that we had exhausted our sup
ply of book cards and more woul
be necessary before we could pu
some books recently riven us int
circulation, and that our librar,
paste-pot had to be replenished. Ii
addition to these items we hat
previously ordered 500 envelope
from the Press Publishing Co. to o<
paid for at the end of the month
and we had to meet the unexpectec
cost of stencils, $5.40, being used li
preparing a handy catalogue oJ
books in the library, bringing th<
total cost to $11.95. That amounl
would probably seem a trifle to the
average business man; it was s
complete avalanche to the library
book fund whose chief income is derived
from the small change left ii:
payment of fines on overdue books
We had saved this for new books it
honor of the opening of the new
library.
Our New Home
The new library building is nesting
completion, and we snail bt
moving into it about the first ol
August. As we shall have to adjust
the bookshelves to fit the wallona?a
hofnpo urA Aon mOVfi. it Will bf
necessary to close the library foi
several days while the books arc
stacked on the floor.
The thought of moving into out
own building is very exhilerating
the fulfillment of a long dream. W<
shall be most happy to feel that a
last we are established under ou:
own roof, but there will also to
some regrets. We may never fee
quite so much at home in our owi
new home as we have come to fee
In the little building we have oc
cupied since we began to functioj
ten years ago. It is the only horn
we have known and has becom
very dear to us. There tire othe
reasons that bring us regret. W
shall miss our neighbors sadly: s
will our clientele. Books cannot b
left at the court house during lunci
hour, as they have been left b
borowers in the past for Mr. Turne
Allen and other neighbors to returr
No one will take that much troubl
again for the library. I dare sa:
So, leaving our old home is nc
without regrets even though we aT

Charlie Riggan, J
Veteran of 1861-65, ?
Young In Action 1
By HOWARD JONES JR. 1
Charlie W. Riggan of Vaughan is <
a remarkable specimen of the hum- 1
an race. J
This 91-year-old Confederate
Veteran is remarkable in the fact '
that as he approaches the century '
.mark his vision has not become
enough impared to cause him to j
wear glasses, his mind is sufficiently
clear to permit him to remember
details of the war, and his vitality
is such that he not only can dance }
circles around the boys who were {
with him when he fought the Yan- j
kees, but he can also make some of }
the 20-year-old Bucks of today look
like pikers.
Mr. Riggan doesn't take much t
stock in Ben Franklin's philosophy j
of "Early to bed, early to rise, ?
makes a man healthy, wealthy and 5
wise." As a matter of fact, he s
won't go to bed at all if there are j
women and music around for him j
to enjoy.
It is not beyond the scope of 1
Charlie Riggan's experiences to go i
off on a party, stay ten days or s
two weeks, and return home at day- 1
break to Joke his children about s
sleeping through the Joys of life. <
? . t
Two weeks ago tne sun nau ueeu i
up more than an hour when he returned
to his home from Rocky
Mount where he attended as an i
active stag the June German. And (
those who saw him on the floor the i
night of the dance will tell you that ?
he not only danced to beat the band ?
while the music was playing but
when the orchestra paused between
pieces he would stop and cut the
caper while strolling around the :
warehouse with his partners.
[ "The June German was a nice
dance, but I had most as much fun
the night before when I went to
i Rocky Mount and danced at the
country club until 2 o'clock,' Mr.
Riggan commented as though there
was nothing unusual about a 91year-old
man dancing until 2 o'clock
the night preceding an all-night
dance.
And while many of the young
couples of today were resting up
for weeks in advance of the German,
Mr. Riggan was down in Tennessee
dancing night and day at
the dances arranged for the vete
rans who were in convention it
Chattanooga. He claims that he
had a great time there, and evidently
he did, for he did not return
to his home until several days
after Veteran John W. Allen reached
here.
Mr. Allen and Mr. Riggan have
been going to the conventions together
for years, but Mr Allen has
one objection to going off with Mr.
Riggan: "The trouble about Charlie,"
said Mr. Allen, "is that when
the time comes to go to bed he is
just getting ready to go out on an
all-night frolick."
And Mr. Riggan has his objections
to some of his battle mates
"The boys are getting too slow for
me," said Mr. Riggan. "It has gotten
so most of them approach one
another with feeble steps, shake
hands, and begin talking about the
old times. Held with that, I want ;o
be going places and doing things.'
Mr. Riggan, who smokes and likes
his "tardy," holds that women,
music and flowers are responsible
for his long and active life. "Pretty
women, good music and flowers will
carry any man through," he said.
Mr. Riggan, a member of the 30th
Regiment, Co. B., was once given
