HINKLE, DEVOTED FRIEND We would in the memory friends Mrs. It was in July, 1924, that we first met Mrs. Hin kle and her fine family. Arriving in Marshall by train for an expected over-night visit, my parents and brother and I walked down Marshall's Main Street from the depot to the Montezuma Hotel, lo cated across the street from the present French Broad Electric Membership Coop Building. This was our first real "taste" of the mountains and our first visit to Marshall. As a 12-year-old boy, we awoke the next morning with great excitement as we saw the huge mountain rising directly from our hotel window. It was soon time for breakfast and we were told that "they serve delicious meals across the street at the French Broad Hotel." The information was indeed correct as we remember the bountiful servings on the large table in the dining room. Assisting Mrs. Hinkle with the serving were her daughters, Nell, Kate, and Julia. The first meal was so delicious that my parents decided then and there to take all our meals with "the Hinkles." Instead of a one-day visit, it turned out for all general purposes to be a perma nent visit as my father purchased The News-Record, then located where the Masonic Temple now stands and edited by Mrs. Annie May White. We quickly fell In love with Mrs. Hinkle and her family and Bob Hinkle and I soon became friends and then pals. It was months before our family moved into our present home on Roberts Mountain and during the interim when our borne was being ren ovated, we continued to "live" at the Montezuma and eat at the French Broad Hotel. Regardless of how loud, boisterous and mis chievous Bob and I would be, Mrs. Hinkle was al ways patient and kind. She would insist we go back and find something to eat in the kitchen ; she would go out of her way to be sympathetic and kind. She was actually our "second mother." Her passing this week is keenly felt by her family, her relatives and her thousands of friends not the least by any means, by us. -oOo- NEW WATER MAIN HYDRANTS It is gratifying to learn that new 4-inch watar mains are being installed to the schoof. For years, this has been needed and the investment is a sound' and practical one. There should always be adequate" water supply and pressure to serve the needs of a school and its hundreds of pupils. We comemnd the school officials, county offi cials and others who are responsible for this new project. We only wish that one or more fire hydrants could be "planted" on the Island as a safeguard just in case. This could easily be done now that 4-inch pipes are there. Speaking of hydrants, we also wish to commend the town officials for having two hydrants installed on back street in the main business district. This, too, has been needed for years. Up to the pre sent firemen could not battle a blaze of majfcir propor tions except by laying hose across Main Street. This also required hundreds of feet of extra hose in order to enter from the front of the buildings; even though the fire might be. in the rear of a business, firm next to back street. The addition of these hydrants is another step forward and will, no doubt, prove most beneficial, both to firemen and property- cwaers. SCHOOLS AND It should not be neceasaiy to have tcaution driv ers about being especially careful nov thai schools are about to begin. However, such cmms cannot be over-emphasized. Watch for small children on ttte streets and roads. Remember, they tfr? nmin a street or road and might ran afrectly in front of your ear. Be on the alert at all times especially during early morning and mid-afteraeoTi. And, too, please reme1ehicl are to stop in BOTH directions at . atbool bus which is loading or unloading children. nA careless and unthoughtfri driver coeld ilv injure or perhaps kill some boy or girl.

Everyone Invited We are sorry about "Uncle" th I Charlie Henderson of Bluff nana I in soamv. Our sympathy to the Driver Education Regulation Cited By Tom Wallin Madison County Driver Educa tion Instructor Tom 0. Wallin this week released information concerning drop-out certification for driver's license as per law en acted by the last legislature. Mr. Wallin stated that all drop out moat hare received 80 hours of classroom instruction and pass the "behind the wheel" phase of the driver's education course of fered by the public school sys tem. He said the Highway Patrol Department no longer had this re sponsibility. "Therefore, sny school drop-out in the Spring Creek district, the first of the five schools to begin the course, will register at the school with the principal of that school on or before Sept amber 1 They must be 16 or will be 16 by September 1, 1966. Only one course will be offered at each of the five high school in Madison County. The Spring Creek class will also include all students in the 10th grade at the Spring Creek school. Ijiter schedules will be announce for the other four high schools," Mr. Wallin said. Mr. Wallin said that it is the responsibility of each school drop out to enroll, attend and pass the course in order to be certified f"i a driver's license examination b the N. C. Driver's License exam iner. There will be no fee foi this course in driver's education in the public school system of North Carolina, he explained.

Health, Safety Tips- (Continued from Page One) home safety and safety in school and on the way there. At the proper age, every child should be taught bicycle safety and driver training. Parentis have the major responsibility in many of these activities, but , the role of the school also is important. The basic facts of consumer health should be presented to the student. He should learn how to choose a physician, how to call one in an emergency and how to obtain hospitalisation. He should learn the dangers of self-diagnosis and self-medioation. He should have an opportunity to learn how to tell fact from fancy in advertising of health services and related pro ducts. The child should learn the basic facts of communicable disease con trol and how to protect himself and others as much as possible. H should learn to keep his own rec- ords of his immunizations medical and dental i appointments. I Home nursing and the use and abuse of stimulants and depres sants are usually emphasized in school. Dynamic health teaching will carry over into the home, result ing in the improvement of family and home hygiene, together with a better understanding and fuller use of community health resour ces. Parent-teacher organizations may become aware of important community needs, and, under the school's leadership, bring about community health improvements in such areas as raising of hous ing standards, removal of safety hazards or improvement of food sanitation in restaurants and mar koto. Insistence on periodic medical examinations for each school child points up to parents the import ance of this procedure. NOSEY NEIGHBORS?
