Card of Thanks

gratitude and appreciation to all

love and sympathy during the ill

husband and father. We wish it
were possible to go to each person
and thank them for their services
rendered.
We especially wish to thank the
florists for the nice arrangements
and for their time they gave and
especially each minister for their
prayers and reassuring words of
comfort in our time of grief and
sorrow. And without the prayers
of our friends we could not have
gone on.
To all, for their visits, food,
flowers, cards, prayers and com
forting words, we will be foTever
grateful. May God richly bless
each of you.

Near Tragedy at Pool;
Parents Are Warned
(Continued from Page 1)
grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Philip
Massey of Zebulon.
Hull urges all parents to explain
the dangers of deep water to their
children.
He explained that children are
daring and will wander off into
the deep water, which can be
tragic.
He said that the life guards try
very hard to keep a close check
on swimmers but that it is almost
impossible when the pool is teem
ing with persons, such as on holi
days and weekends.
Parents should do their part too
in keeping tabs on their youngs
ters, Hull said.
4*.4ivt n wj'c uuu uiv.il
children are over stepping the
bounds of safety and cannot man
age them, tell the life guards. The
life guards will immediately take
action, forbidding them use of the
pool.
Parents came in for criticism,
too, from life guards Hull and
Buddy Cagle. Hull and Cagle said
some parents are taking their
children to the deep end. This
can be dangerous, they said. Sup
pose the parent developed cramps,
or the child got into trouble.
Which would the life guards save
first, the parent or the child?
Hull and Cagle urge the parents
to let the children stay in the des
ignated water area above the rope
for their safety.
Hull said every precaution is
being taken for the protection and
safety of lives. He wants the
members of the pool to enjoy it
and have fun in it.
But, he urged, let everyone be
very careful. Observe the rules
and regulations. And heed the life
guards. All water can be danger
ous. Even pool water.
