Large Crowd In Attendance For Frye Memorial Services A large crowd turned out Sun day afternoon at Culdee Presbyterian Church, on West End, Rt. 1 for a memorial service to the late John C. Frye, who died last December 19, and who dur ing his later years became very interested and worked in behalf of the Moore County Senior Citizens. Special tributes were paid to him by one of his associates in senior citizen’s work, John Mac Pherson of Southern Pines, and by Mrs. Barbara Wrencher, a member of the Carthage Friend ly Senior Citizens Club. A conununion pitcher and plates were presented to the church on behalf of the Moore County Senior Citizens Qubs, with the presentation being made by John MacPherson. They were accepted on behalf of the church by Elder Lee Williams. After the pitcher was presented, Allen Haywood, Bar bara Haywood, Tony and Donna Haywood and Hope Haywood Maness sang a special number “Pass It On.” Responsive reading was led by Jack Johnson, and the pastor of Culdee Church, the Rev. Ben Mc Coy extended remarks of welcome. The Rev. Mr. McCoy also gave the prayer of dedica tion. MacPherson, who was associated with Mr. Frye in senior citizens activities, made a few brief remarks pointing to the great work done for these people by the deceased, and how in terested he was in their cause. Mrs. Barbara Wrencher, a member of the Carthage Friend ly Senior Citizens Club, gave an eulogy to the memory of Mr. Frye following the presentation of the communion pitcher. The Culdee Quartet composed of Fred Whitesell, Mrs. Linda Upole, Robert Lea and Kenneth Whitesell sang two special numbers. The congregation join ed in singing two hymns. Following the memorial ser vice a reception was held on the church lawn. Communion plates were also presented to the church in memoriam to the late Everett A. Horrell and to the late Mrs. Clara N. Riedel. Members of the families of these were present for the special occasion. Mrs. Barbara Wrencher of the Carthage Friendly Senior Citizens Club made a few remarks to the memory of the late Mr. Frye. Her remarks were as follows: “Mr. MacPherson, the Frye family, fellow senior citizens and friends. It affords me great pleasure to have the privilege to say something in memory of one of the dearest friends I have ever had. “From the first time we met we were friends. He organized our senior citizens club. We did not have a permanent meeting place until he asked if we could meet at the library. We still hold our meetings there. “He attended all our meetings, he motivated our club and kept us going. He brought us many useful things such as cloth for making quilts and curtains. Many members have curtains they still use. That was just the way he was. “I remember him telling me that he wasn’t much of a church man. I recited this poem to him- with words of sweet accord. “If Mr. Frye knew of anyone in need he didn’t stop until he helped them. He was never too busy to help those less fortunate. If this is not the church, then I wonder what the church is-and that was just the way he was. “I remember one time we went to Charlotte to see the Ice Capades. The bus was supposed to leave at 2 p.m., and one of the ladies did not show up, and had not called. Mr. Frye called her on the phone, but did not get an answer. He got into his car and went to her home to see if she was going. When we returned he was busy seeing that everyone got safely home-and that is just the way he was. “Later his health failed him and he was not as active. I was sitting on my front porch one Sun day afternoon when a car stop ped. His son Charles, his mother, sister and grandson and Mr. Frye were in the car. They had stopped by so he could speak to me. I was so happy to see him. “Our club meetings were never the same after he stopped atten ding them. “Friends, these are down to earth true facts. That is the way he was and I believe from my heart that today he is in heaven. That is just the way HE IS.” Mrs. Frye, her children and grandchildren were present for the service. Rotarians Told About Welfare Facts-Myths Calvin Underwood Moore County Social Services Director had the program at last Thur sday’s meeting of the Carthage Rotary Club in which he showed slides titled “Welfare Facts Versus Myths.” His central theme was that there is a misconception that welfare families are taking the ta^ayers for a ride, which he said was not true. He said another misconception is that many women have children to draw welfare checks. He said welfare families have about 1.8 children. There are no batnes just to get welfare. Another myth, he stated, is that all one has to do to get welfare money is to come by and sign up. This, Underwood said, is not the case at all that there is a process which each applicant has to go through, such as their in come among other things. He said the Reagan cuts would cost N.C. an estimated $51,000,000 next year in Me^caid. He said the Reagan administration plan is to stop Medicaid spending in the up- Church Meets Two important meetings are scheduled in the Carthage United Methodist Church on Sunday, May 10. One is the Council on Ministries which will meet Sunday night at 7 o’clock, and the Administrative Board to meet at 8 p.m. coming budget year at a 5 per cent level about the 1980-81 total. He said bad debts in the health care industry are passed along to the private paying medical care consumers through increases in health insurance and increase in hospital rates. Program chairman for tomorrow’s regular meeting will be Cyrus Willcox. Gun Class Set At see Sandhills Community College’s Continuing Education Division will offer a course in firearms safety and use for women and men beginning May 11.

Moore Group Has Plans Super Saturday For Organic Gardening BY PATTY HAY A group of people interested in growing fruits and vegetables • naturally met at the Sandhills Community College April 28. They agreed on some common goals and set a meeting date for the fourth Tuesday evening in the month. The time is 8 p.m. The place will be announced later. Charlotte Vetter of Carthage reviewed the USDA report on organic gardening and farming. They have recommended that the Extension Service have information to help those wanting to use organic methods. Charles Hammond of the Moore County Extension Service said that a catalog listing the information they will have available has been received. We will have more information about the catalog available at the meeting May 26. When you ask the Extension Service about problems, let them know you want the natural solution to your problem if they have one. An integrated pest management plan should soon be availably to Moore County through NCSU. Following this plan will greatly reduce the dangerous sprays and contamination of our land, water and air. In this plan, fields are monitored and the farmer is urged to wait until the pest reaches a certain number before spraying. Timing of the spraying to the most effective point in the life cycle of the insect can reduce the amount and cost of spraying and still be more effective. The Moore County Library will be asked to buy the book, “The Organic Way to Plant Protection,” by the staff of Organic Gardening magazine. This reference is useful to any gardener. Interest was expressed in intensive methods of agriculture suitable for small plots. A very significant amount of food can be grown on a piot 3 feet by 10 to 20 feet. It was suggested that we have demonstration plots. In future meetings, we will first discuss the gardening problems of members to see what can be done to help each other. It was suggested that kitty litter placed in the runs of moles and rodents will rid your garden of those critters. Members will try this suggestion. Second, we will review and discuss the Rodale Cornucopia Project which is studying our food system to see how we can reduce the waste and high costs of raising our food and transporting it. We will also review the need for a national seed bank in order not to risk losing our best varieties of seed. Even one dry well in Moore County diminishes the quality of life and the value of all property. Mr. Dunn of the Water Department says that wells are now down from 2 to 15 feet. Let’s all try the following things tg maintain the water table. If each person is careful to save water our children and grandchildren will have enough water. Natural gardening and farming is an excellent way to save water and use many wastes such as weeds, wood chips, garbage and other residues. Try it: then, put a brick in your toilet tank so that each time you flush you’ll save the depth of the brick in water. When, you brush your teeth, use a glass'- of water to rinse your brush like campers do. You’ll save two or three gallons of water each time, three times a day is nine gallons of water, times four in a family is 36, times 365 days a year is 13,140 gallons a year. Also save on baths, dish washing, hand' washing, etc. We will not need to build and opierate sewer capacity to hold water we might have wasted. We will monitor the water table and let you know how it works. If you would like to be on our calling list for the meetings, call or write Charlotte Vetter, 947j2590 or Patty Hay, R. Rt. 2, Box 314, Carthage, 28327, 947-5074. World War II, gave blue jeans a boost up the ladder of success.
