HOME ECONOMICS EDUCATION
DISCUSSED AT CARTHAGE
Miss Susan Burson, State Super
visor of Home Economics Education,
met a group of home economists in
the home demonstration agent’s of
fice in Carthage Tuesday night. The
topic for discussion was how to make
home economics meet the changing
conditions. A special curriculium
study group was appointed. Miss Bur-
son stated that home economics had
held its own with a steady increase
of schools adding home economics to
the curriculum.
Mrs. Estelle T. Smith, district
agent, met the agents of the ninth
district in the home agent’s office in
Carthage Saturday. The agents at
tending were Mrs. Anna Harris of
Richmond county. Miss Cornelia
Simpson of Lee, Mrs. Stella Cusick
of Montgomery and Miss Flora Mc
Donald of Moore. Moore has been se
lected as the typical county of this
district. In the future the district
meetings will be held in Carthage.

ident of the County Council, Mrs.

JANUARY 2d DEADLINE FOR
VETERANS’ SERVICE BONUSES
Volume XIV, which means The Pilot has completed fourteen years
of its existence. Is what the man at the wheel at the top of the front
p •ye is figuring on at this minute. Sextant, latitude tables, chronome
ter and all the rest are momentarily not of consequence, for here are
fourteen years of retrospect, and once in a while it is interesting to look
backwards and read the log.
Stacy Brewer started The Pilot at Vass, with the backing of a
broad-minded philosopher and business man, A Cameron, one of the
creators of the prosperity that commenced in the Sandhills before the
villages now existing were begun. Stacy Is still in the newspaper field,
a worker and a genius in his way. Mr. Cameron has joined the innum
erable army which has made the record men call history. As the god
father of The Pilot it is permissible to maintain a confidence that a
man of his type has found at the hands of the One Merciful ample re
ward for a life of usefulness and wholesome contact with his kind, for
he earned a good A-1 rating.
From Mr. Brewer The Pilot passed into the hands of its present
ownership and management, removing to Aberdeen and then to South
ern Pines. Modesty forbids telling what a good paper it is, but look it
over if you do not know and you will understand why the man at the
top of the front page with the wheel in his hand does not have to
blush when he sees the folks reading what The Pilot prints, and that he
does not have to explain next wt“it why what it says this week is not
so, for he does not have to say that. It is so.
Yes’m The Pilot is feeling right pert, thank you, and hopes these
few lines may tind you all enjoying the same great blessing. The Pilot’s
offspring, The Sandhills Daily News, is also appreciative of a lot of sub
stantial friends whose acquaintance it is making, and its lines seem
c-'-st in pleasant places. With Judge Way as father confessor, a man
whose creed is that the world is not going to the dogs. The Pilot enters
the coming year with a vast optimism, for that is simply a vigorous be
lief that the engineer of this big job called the universe has never yet fal
len down. The Pilot coppers 1935 for a winner.
Advices received from the Navy
Recruiting Station, Raleigh, state that
during the past month forty men were
enlisted at that station. The Decem
ber quota of enlistments for this dis
trict will remain the same, with
thirty-two men to be enlisted as ap
prentice seamen and eight men as
mess attendants third class. Only men
of the Negro race are eligible for
enlistment as mess attendants.
To be eligible for enlistment the
following general qualifications are
required: to be'between the ages of
17 and 25 years of age, be a U. S.
citizen, be of good moral character,
single with no dependents, have the
consent of parents or guardian to en
list and be able to pass the required
mental land physical examinations.
Applications for both ratings are
being received daily at the recruit
ing office and all interested young
men who feel that they can qualify
and who are in earnest are invited
to visit the Recruiting Station where
they will be given full information
in regards to the advantages offered
by the Navy.
