Blue, 60, member of’ a pioneer Scottish family, died suddenly Friday afternoon while moving to a new home at Lake- view from his former home near by. He was engaged in transferring shrubbery, and suffered an attack on the grounds of the old home. Funeral services were held Sun day at 2 p.m. at the Lakeview Presbyterian church, conducted by the Rev. W. S. Golden of Carthage. Burial was in the Lakeview cemetery beside othefs of his family who have been bur ied there through the years. PaUbearers were Atlas East- wood, Edwin Causey, Howard Mo- Innis, Ratchford Haynes, H. A. Matthews and Swanson Oldham, all of Lakeview. Mr. Blue was born at Lakeview .May 4, 1890, son of Murdoch and Mary Ferguson Blue. Land own ed by the Blue family there, on which he later built a home of his own, had been in their possession since pre-Revolutionary days, when his ancestors acquired it through royal grant. This land was among several tracts recently sold by their own ers, in the community interest, to the Wyandotte Worsted Co., Inc., of New England, to become a site for a large manufacturing plant. Mr. Blue operated a restaurant at Lakeview for a number of years. At the time of his death he was connected with the post engineering department at Fort Bragg.

John Jacob Niles, Noted Ballad Singer, Will Give Conc,ert Here February 23 Second In Series Given By Sandhills Music Association The spring series of concerts sponsored by the Sandhills Music association will be resumed Fri day evening, February 23, at the Southern Pines school auditorium with the presentation of a recital by John Jacob Niles, acclaimed as the foremost authority on folk- music in America today. Other events scheduled so far include the concert on March 10 of the celebrated Robert Shaw Chorale and Chamber Music En semble, now on its second coast- to-coast tour after several years of consistent triumphs on the air. In April the North Carolina Sym phony orchestra will return to Southern Pines for its second an nual concert here, under the baton of Dr. Benjamin Swalin. John Jacob Niles was born in Louisville, and grew up in Jeffer son county, Kentucky. His early musical education came from his father, who was a singer of bal lads and caller of square-dances, and from his mother, who was a church organist and taught her son to play the piano. By the time he was 15, he had taught himself musical shorthand, and had start ed to write down folk music—the ballads his father sang, the Negro spirituals he heard in Louisville’s Cabbage Patch. In 1917 he enlisted in the U. S. Air Corps and was one of the orig inal 77 cadets during ’lyorld War 1. He became a ferry pilot, visit ing many different U. S. units, and recorded their off-duty songs, later publishing them in two books, “Singing Soldiers’’ and “Songs My Mother Never Taught Me.” After the armistice he re mained in France to study at the University of Lyons and the Schola Cantorum in Paris. Later he continued his musical studies at the Cincinnati Conservatory (which recently granted him an honorary Doctor of Music degree). Going to New York City he varied his pursuit of an income by such jobs as that of master of ceremo nies in the Silver Slipper night club, and playing the role of Abie in a burlesque version of “Abie’s Irish Rose,” to working as a rose gardener on a Long Island estate. One night he was invited to sing some of his American melodies at a party at the Princeton club. His reception was so encouraging that he teamed up with the American contralto Marion Kerby to tour the United States and many Euro pean countries, giving concerts which were outstandingly success ful. Mr. Niles has recorded many of the songs he has collected, accom panying himself on the dulcimer. He has a large assortment of these instruments, many of which he has made himself. He carries four with him, each tuned to a single key. The dulcimer produces quar ter and eighth tone notes which do not exist on the piano. Inci dentally, Mr. Niles says that de fective dulcimers make fine fire wood on cold winter nights! Tickets are still available for the spring series at a substantial saving over individual concert prices. Dr. and Mrs. W. F. Hollis ter are membership chairmen. Drivers Advised To Check License Card For Expiration Driver License Examiner W. E. Yow of Southern Pines this week reminded motorists who obtained renewal of their driver licenses in 1947 under the Re-issuance Pro gram, to check their cards for the expiration date. The expiration date will be found in the lower right hand cor ner of the motorists’ present li cense cards. These motorists will be permitted to seek renewal 30 days prior to the expiration date, which falls bn their birthdate. 'The majority will have surnames be ginning with A or B, but a few will fall in other alphabetical groups. Motorists who do not seek re newal in advance of the expiration date on their cards, will be re quired to take the complete test. Examiner Ybw pointed out. A space will be provided on the new license cards for blood type, which will be placed on the cards Upon presentation of evidence of blood type. Since inclusion of this information is a public service and voluntary on the part of appli cants failure to present the blood type will not be reason to deny is suance of licenses. The daily schedule for Examin er Yow win be as follows: Aberdeen, Monday and Tues day; Raeford, Wednesday and Thursday; Pinehurst, first and third Friday of each month; Southern Pines, second and fourth Friday of each month. SCOUT DIRECTOR MRS. MARY J. McNAIR Mrs. McNair Is New Director of Girl Scout Council Mrs. Mary Johnson McNair, of Sanford, a former member of the national staff of Girl Scouts of America, on Monday became the first executive director of the young but growing Central Caro lina Girl Scout Area Council. Employment of an executive di rector was made possible through an expanded budget this year which communities in four coun ties of the area helped to meet. Among those cooperating was the newly formed Southern Pines City Council, which approved the action of becoming part of the area and went, all out on its first fund campaign, held last Novem ber. Mrs. McNair will work with aM councils and troops of the area, assisting in the training of leaders, the expansion of Girl Scouting and the achievement of troop and council projects. A native of Georgia, she grad uated from Georgia State College for Women in 1941. The following year, as a public school teacher at Dalton, Ga., she became interested in Girl Scout work, serving first as a volunteer troop leader, then going into the work professional ly. She served as executive direc tor of the Pineland Area Council at Waycross, Ga., then of the Man atee County Area Council at Bra denton, Fla. She was so success ful in her work that the National Board called her into service as a staff member in 1947. She was assigned to the post of community advisor for the State of North Carolina. Miss Johnson became Mrs. Mc Nair in August 1950 and came to Sanford to make her home, giving up her place on the national staff. Her experience and abilities make of her an executive excep tionally well qualified to assist the Central Carolina Area Council in its progressive program.
