Friday, November 22, 1935.. THE PILOT, Southern Pines and Aberdeen, North Carolina Fac'c Thvee NATIONAL PARK TO ADD ANOTHER TO AmACTIONSHERE Work Prosressinf? Rapidly on New Recreational Center and Fisheries Project IJ. S. AC(iUIKKS LAND Work is progressing rapidly on the great recreational park and fisher ies which in due time will add anoth er to the many attractions of the Sandhills section of North Carolina. Much of the land in the Hollman sec tion has been acquired by the gov ernment for its submarginal land de velopment project, and the reforesta tion forces are hard at it turning GO,- 000 or more acres into a veritable sportsnisn's paradise. The government, under a program said to have been conceived in the mind of President Roosevelt himself, set aside some time ago $25,000,000 to retire land below normal for farm purposes, to remove families from such lards and set them up on land from which they might make a liv ing. Under the program the Sandhills was fortunate in being selected for the experimental work, and B. G. Downey and a crew of young men under him have been making their headquarters in the Patch Building, Southern Pines, carrying out the ex periment. Their work met with the full favor of Washington authorities who visited the land selected, and plars were drawn for a park on a large 3cale, much of it on the prop erty of Glenn Ford McKinney in the Hoffman section. Series of Lukes The development calls for a series of lakes, a fisheries project, with a hatchery for warm water fish, and a tree nursery project, as well as the beautification of the park for recre ation purposes. The nursery has been well under way for some time, on the old Broadacres estate. There ship- mast locust has been planted some loblolly and long leaf pine. Something like $2,000 is said to be involved in the Sandhills project, un der a three-year program. Twenty- one sites for lakes have been selected, with necessity dams and the clearing of tributary streams. Most of the land to be acquired lies in Richmond and Scotland counties, adjoining Moore, but some will be purchased in this county near the Eldridge John son estate. The project should mean much to the Sandhills, ultimately giving this section a fishing ground to add to the many and varied sporting activities. The planting program will also mean a sightseeing objective for old and young.

Millions of Steps It would require million.s of messenger boys to deliver the mes sages which are transmitted every day over the telephone. Many millions of steps would be used by business men and housewives if they were obliged to deliver the conversations in person which go over the wires. The telephone saves millions of steps every day. It provides the almost instant communication of thought which makes moderr^ business possible. Communication is the secret of progress and any home or office without a telephone is severely handicapped in the business and social structure.
