Miss Rebecca Cameron Dies; Funeral
Held Tuesday For Longtime Resident
Funeral services were held
Tuesday afternoon at Brownson
Memorial Presbyterian Church
for Miss Rebecca Cameron of
Southern Pines, who died Sunday
at Moore Memorial Hospital after
a long illness.
Dr. C. K. Ligon, pastor, con
ducted the services, assisted by
the Rev. Carl Wallace, pastor of
the Church of Wide Fellowship,
and the Rev. Malcolm Anderton,
pastor of ,the Manly Presbyterian
Church. Mrs. Charles Phillips
sang at the service. Burial was in
Mt. Hope Cemetery.
Miss Cameron was born and
grew up on a farm in McNeill
Township, daughter of the late
David Hugh and Mary B. Cam
eron, both descendants of Scot
tish pioneers in the Cape Fear
valley. Miss Cameron traced her
ancestry to Scots Highlanders
who settled in the Barbecue
Creek community near Fayette
ville. She was of the fourth gen
eration of the family in the
United States.
Until her iUness two years ago.
Miss Cameron — affectionately
and widely known as “Miss Re
becca”—was .employed for many
years at Patch’s Department
Store, as was her sister. Miss
Mary Cameron with whom she
lived at 215 N. Bennett St. Miss
Mary has been ill for some time
and a sister. Miss Gussie Camer
on, came here from Raleigh two
years ago, to be with Miss Mary
and the late Miss Rebecca.
Miss Cameron was hospitalized
for nearly seven weeks last sum-
m er and was at Moore Memorial
Hospital three weeks prior to her
death.
Mis,. Cameron was a member
of the Manly Presbyterian
Church,, but attended the Church
of Wide Fellowship prior to the
construction of Brownson Mem
orial Presbyterian Church and
continued her association with
th.9 Church of Wide Fellowship.
She was an active member of that
church’s Ruth Burr Sanborn Cir
cle which was named in memory
of a close personal friend, the
late Ruth Burr Sanborn. Mem
bers of that circle had charge of
the flowers at Miss Cameron’s
funeral Tuesday. She had also,
some years ago, taught a Sunday
School Class at the Church of
Wide Fellowship.
Noted for her sweet and cheer
ful disposition. Miss Cameron
was interested in people and had
a large circle of friends. She
found much pleasure in her
home, her family and her flower
garden, which she tended enthus
iastically. She was a member of
the American Legion Auxiliary.
Surviving are three sisters, the
Misses Mspry and Gussie Camer
on of Southern Pines, and Mrs.
D. D. Wicker of Hamlet; and a
brother, D. Clifton Cameron of
Southern Pines.

their sons. Setlill’s father was
also present, and the minister of
his church. Eddie, he said, had
ushered at church the night be
fore they ran off.
Present in court, but as a juve
nile taking no part in the trial,
was Brenda Gale Nelson, the
pretty and pert little 14-year-old
who had accompanied the boys
on their jaunt. The group told of
ficers here they were Florida-
bound, and Brenda Gale and one
of the boys planned to marry.
Judge Rowe sentenced the boys
to six months on the roads, with
all to be held in jail for a week. If
during that time, Virginia officers
should'come for the boys, with
warrants on the auto theft
charge, the sentences handed
down here will be suspended.
During the trial Deputy Sheriff
J. A. Lawrence, who had handled
the case for the Moore County
sheriff’s department, said he had
had a radio message they were
leaving soon.
The group of parents left sadly
to return home, leaving the boys
in jail, but taking Brenda Gale
along with them—a case for wel
fare authorities at Roanoke.

Newspapers Are
Widely Read By
Working Women
Twenty-two million working
women, including 12 million
housewives, a majority of whom
are in upper income families,
represent to advertisers a huge
new buying force that can best
be reached through the newspa
per, according to the Bureau of
Advertising of the American
Newspaper Publishers Associa
tion.
In a just published bulletin in
its “Valuable Data” series, the
Bureau points out that the num
ber of employed housewives was
33 per cent greater in 1957 than
in 1951. This growth has been
entirely in families in the upper
income bracket of $6,000 and
over—an increase of 14 per cent
in the six-year period.
Besides working housewives,
the female labor force also in
cludes approximately five million
women who are widowed, divorc
ed or separated, and more than
five million single women.
Ip evaluating media that reach
this market, the Bureau notes
that surveys indicate working
women, alternating between of
fice work and housework, have
little time for nighttime televi
sion. And daytime tv, the Bureau
says, misses the vast majority of
the female labor force, because of
timing.
“Newspaper page readership,
however, retains its high level of
constancy among women,” com
ments the Bureau. “Surveys con
tinue to show that women not
only consider newspaper adver
tising more useful than adver
tising in other media, but read
and consult the newspaper ads
before shopping.”
In addition to representatives
of the Army, Navy, Air Force
and National Guard, the discus
sion leaders for the various vo
cations will be: J. E. Sandlin,
Amerotron controller—account
ing, business and office manage
ment; F. D. Allen, county agri
cultural agent—agriculture; a
representative of National Air
lines—air line hostess; O. G.
Thomas of the Charlotte Beauty
School—^beauty culture; the. Rev.
Carl Wallace of Southern Pines—
the ministry; Miss Jean Griffith,
educational director for four
churches in the Carthage area—
Christian education director.
Also: Dr. W. E. Austin of the
N. C. State College School of En
gineering — engineering; Mrs.
Jane Struthers, home economist
with the Carolina Power and
Light Co.—home economics;
Thomas R. Howerton, administra
tor of Moore Memorial Hospital—
hospital administration, labora
tory technician and x-ray tech
nician; Mrs. Hollie Sisk of Col
onial Furniture Co., Southern
Pines—interior decorating.
Also: Ross A. Cadle, dean of
admissions at Chowan , College,
Murfreesboro ;— journalism; Mrs.
Juanita Pickard, superintendent
of nurses at Moore Memorial hos
pital, nursing; Gerald Ellen of the
Southern Pines High School fac
ulty—physical education and

The college conferences will be
conducted in the school gymna
sium from 11 a. m. to 3 p. m.
Parents are invited to attend
with their children from 1 p. m.
to 3 p. m.
For students who are not inter
ested in the college conferences,
a film will be shown in Weaver
Auditorium from 11:40 to 12:25.
This, also, is an innovation this
year.
Lunch will be served in the
cafeteria.
The 26 colleges to be repre
sented were chosen by the jun
iors and seniors of the county’s
schools through a questionnaire
distributed to them on which
they were asked to indicate the
colleges in which they were most
interested.
Mr. Cushman said that the Ki
wanis Club is especially pleased
to give students and their par
ents the chance to talk to the
large number of college represen
tatives. Such an opportunity, he
pointed out, would otherwise be
possible for an individual only
with a great deal of time, travel
and expense. He particularly urg
ed parents to visit the college
representatives with their chil
dren.
The speaker was presented by
W. Lament Brown of Southern
Pines. R. M. Cushman of South
ern Pines served as master of
ceremonies.
