His Life Typified Close Person
al Relationship of Rural
Americans
By Bion H. Butler
One of the most profound pleas
ures of life is that which is found in
the country and the villages, that
contact of people with each other
which makes all cf us acquaintances
and neighbors and friends. Last
week one of the oldest settlers drop
ped out, Hugh Davy Cameron not
Hugh David, mind you, but Hugh
Davy, and there is a vast difference
between Davy and David, for Davy
is a symbol of neighborhood famili
arity and cordial relation. The
neighbors came in numbers to offer
their farewell to the companion of
years. From all walks they gather
ed in, an aged kinswoman of 98
years journeying from her home
near Fayetteville, the old settlors
from around the adjacent townships,
the villagers who hav2 known the
family in the more recent years, the
sprightly younger folks beside the
elderly people in their quaint garb
of ago and older days, all the inti
mate associates of a period that is
gone or of the more sophisticated
present, but all friends, all of them
in higher or lower degree compan
ions of Hugh Davy Cameron at .some
time or another during the last
eighty years.

law, who can recall when the young

More Than 100 Inquiries
About Southern Pines Re

More than 100 inquiries regard

A large percentage of these have

nois, resulting Irom advertising
and publicity carried in Detroit
and Chicago papers this year tor
the fii'st time. Many inquiries have
also come from Canada.

George Ross Pou, Raleigh, General
Counsel of the Highway Protective
League of North Carolina has issued
the first statement defining the aim.o
and purposes of the organization with
which he has recently become identi
fied.
“We have been asked.” said Mr.
Pou, ‘‘to inform the general public
on the necessity of clarifying present
highway laws. •
‘‘We have one of the finest State
highway system in the United States
—a system that people outside the
state admire and try to copy. A sys
tem pointed to as the chief reason
for North Carolina’s remarkable ad
vance during the last ten years.
“But it is not completed. Many
miles of inadequate roads still con
nect important communities. Many
county roads, cared for by State
funds, need to be graded, drained and
surfaced.
“Motorists of the state are pay
ing for these roads in the form of
gas tax and license fees. They pay
every day for maintenance and con
struction they aren’t getting because
highway funds are being diverted for
uses foreign to highway. Highw’ay
to the State Constitution prohibit-
ing diversion of the funds, (c) a
sound and proper revision of motor
license fees, (d) the promotion of
safety upon our highways and (e)
the adoption of a rational highway
plan for North Carolina.
“It is the purpose of this new or
ganization to find ways to avoid these
difficulties, take them to the people
so they may judge whether the cause
of such difficulties should be cor
rected.
“Able men and interested organiza
tions have joined hands with all North
Carolina motorists to insure perpetua
tion of the best State Highway System
and most efficient Highway Depart-
meht personnel in the land. A par
tial list of the sponsors of this or
ganization is indicative of its ulti
mate success.”

i way of the folks in the country and 1}
I in the smaller places. They have time H
to become acquainted and intimacy m
enough to know each other’s vir- jj
tues and abiding humanities.
The Village I'nnii'her
The village j'reacher also has the
closer touch with his congregation.
They lean over ttieir back yard fences
and talk to each other or confab on
their walks to the postoffice or at
the grocery. The personality of the
villagers is closer and their (con
tacts more intimate. The country par
son knows the boys and girls, the
oddities of each of them, the inclina
tions, the acquaintance.^ the family
relationships. In his mind is a card
catalogue of all the virtues and all
the eccentricities and all of the char
acteristics of all the individual mem
bers of the flock and the family ties
and the family action and the cus-
j toms that need a finger on the pulse
' and the ambitions that can stand a
j little encouragement, and he is a
j binder of life and thought of the
' community and a coordinating in
fluence not only in his church but
in the private life and conduct and
: thought and action as well as the
moral authority and the leader in
upright and Godly behavioi-.
And the village doctor—a man
! whose vigils never cease, whose ac
tivities are gauged by the clock
I which runs through night and day,
knowing no minute that he is not at
I the service of his neighbors. Think
; of a thirty-hour week for the doc-
: tor, this man whose office hours
, are limited only because all his other
hours, Sunday included, are subject
to the teleph6ne call, and whose field
of employment includes every other
fellow human creature in range of
his effort for the alleviation of the
ills of human kind. If I ever get to
heaven it will be with the expecta-
' tion of seeing the village doctor seat
ed at the commanding point among
1 those whose names have led the list
of those followers of Abou Ben Ad-
hem, who loved, or at least, which is
; the same, served their fellow mtn.
I Rural Neighbors
! Hugh Davy Cameron was not an
j isolated example of the esteem in
j which village and country folks hold
I each other. He was a prominent ex-
j ponent of this association of the habi-
' tants of the rural areas to acquire a'
I closer personal touch because there
I are not so many individuals that ac-
I quaintance with one another must be
j slight. In our rural country we make
I our acquaintance reach around more
thoroughly because it does not have
. so many to cover thinly.
And so in our rural community the
friends and neighbors and acquaint
ances came to make a friendly ges-
i ture to the old companion as he
set out on that incomprehensible
journey to the presence of the great
Sakya-muni .the Enlightened One,
to the mysteries that are hidden in
the future. They came because in the
country we have the time to get ac
quainted with our neighbors, and
room to mingle with them and to
drift leisurely with them and to have
affairs in common and to appreciate
one another. An old bit of wisdom
has said that “God made the coun
try; man made the town.” An un
biased Qpinion is that God usually
does a commendable job. Rural life
has many things in its favor—things
the big towns can not touch, nor
comprehend, nor evaluate.
