Edward has been crippled since

Hospital started before he was a
year old. At the age of three he
had the first operation on his legs.
When he was four he entered
the North Carolina Cerebral Pal

was fitted with braces and crutches

"The hopeful outlook and determ
ination with which Edward's par

couraging progress he has made in
these few years, convince) us that
Easter Seals can and must provide
this same sort of chance for hun
dreds of other crippled children
in Northl Carolina," President
Rives said.
Times Operator
In Car Wreck
The Times comes to you smaller
than expected this week due to
the fact that our linotype operator,
L. B. BrasweU, was in a wreck
near his home at Monroe early
Monday morning while driving
back to Kenansville for work. A
car ran out on the highway in
front ef him. We have not been
advised the extent of his injuries
but understand they were not quite
as serious as first thought. It is
hoped he will be back on the job
Monday morning. Thanks to the
Mount QUve Tribune and its op
erator, Jerry Fore, who has been
coming over at night and doing
BrasweU's work, we are able to
get the paper out this week. Some
news and ads have been left out
due to these circumstances. They
will appear next week.
