Correspondence OX THE Sl'RIEC'T OF SNOW Kditor The Pilot; Being a confirmed reader of The Passing Years column (and I hope not many more pass before I again f-'ee the Sandhills) I read with inter est that of April 12. My memory of old events still serves me well and I challenge the 1915 section. I am sure I left New Haven for Faster vacation on March 30, 1915— left Philad,elphia the ^evening of March 31st, Wednesday. Had a choc olate milk shake at the bar of the old clubhou.se Thursday, April 1st and that on tJie evening of Friday, Aprl 2d it started to snow. It snowed al most all day Saturday the 3d. We were at the Arlington back of the Holly Inn that season and I remem ber throwing snowballs at the power lines outside to knock the snow off so we wouldn’t be cut off. Quite good sport, too. Then Easter Sun- day, with many inches on the ground, was spent cutting rings (1915 style) at the Jenks and other cottages. So to get to the point—I believe the paragraph should read April 2d and not 9th. Incidentally the North and South was postponed two days on account thereof. Yours— —DICK WATSON. St. Davids. Pa., THE NEED FOB EDUC.ATION Editor, The Pilot: The Southern Pines Library Asso ciation desires very much to double its local membership this year. Your report last week of the 1940 census, in effect, emphasizes for us two points. First, the present local patronage of the Library is a grati fying high percentage of the com munity. .Second, the major objective of the Library as an all-the-year. round institution for the service of local residents merits and will amply reward a marked Increase in local support The value of a Library is In the use made of It. The North Carolina Library Com mission "News Note.s” for this month contains two pertinent Items. The first might be called “A War Note” from Premier Angus L. Macdonald to the Nova Scotia Legislature. "I believe that in Nova Scotia vve nni.st sharpen our brains to the keen est possible point if we are to get along in the economic race. If some higher standard of education among our people can be produced by the institution of regional libraries at a cost within our means every mem- ( ber of this House should support the i move. After this war . . . great so cial and economic problems will arise which can only be properly solved by our people if they have the advan tage of an education in school or of the education a man digs out for himself.” The second is good medicine for a Presidential E3ection year From J. W. Studebaker, United States Com missioner of Education "This, in my opinion, is the time to redouble our efforts to make our education sys tem operate more effectively than ever in the process of enlightening our judgments. To be specific, we need to buttress our library system, par ticularly in the rural areas. When people are burning books in other parts of the world, we ought to be dis tributing them with greater vigor, for books are among our best allies in the fight to make democracy work.” In the behalf of the Member.ship Committee of the Southern Pines Li brary Association. —Warren F. Sheldon, Chairman. —Miss Birdilia Bair, I—Mrs. James B. Swett, —Miss Kleanor 'Valentine.

I doubt if there Is any problem, social, political, or economic, that would not melt away before the fires of such a spiritual awakening."
