Our 60th Anniversary
Anniversaries are laden with mixed emotions. To
each person in advancing age, there is a feel
ing of sadness caused by a sense of loss. Old
sters look back upon things which they experienced
and valued, and deplore the fact that the new
generation has discarded them, and plunged into be
haviour which contradicts the values which oldsters
hold dear..The oldster must look back and look
around. There are a lot of vacant chairs in the home,
church, business and professions, and those left behind
fed a sense of loss
There is some difference in the experience of an
institution-like a school, church, or business organi
ztion. Individuals who make up the institution fed
loss as only individuals can, but as members of an
institution, much of the past is carried on into the
new. In institutions the past and present merge, and
individuals and organizations embody and carry on
much of the best of the past. Ideals which have proven
to be worthy are carried on and in them the old
generation lives in the new, so that, as the Scriptures
say: "He being dead yet speaketh."
In the Journal we have endeavored to cany on
in the spirit and the ideals of the fonder. He is
remembered in a deep affection; and wide we five
and move and have oar being and responsibility in a
different age, we hope and befieve, that those who
fame before ns continue to five with us in making the
JOURNAL an instrument of communicating the old
spirit into a new and ever-expanding world. We feel
some pride in thinking that we have, in some degree,
fulfilled this purpose, and that we axe a part of
yesterday, and today--and shall try to so live and
work that we shall have some part in the futnre.
An institution has a continuous life, and we are proud
to be a part in the fife of the Cooleemee Journal.
Getting out a newspaper is not an ice-cream-and
cake job. It has its trials and tribulations, its discour
agements and frustration; yet, it has a glory, even
if only in a small way it contributes to the life of
the community-
No one is more sensible of our failures than we
are, and we are constantly trying to improve. But
there is a glory in our associations with the people
In our area; our subscribers, advertisers, readers-
From all these we draw warmth of spirit, friend
ship, affection, faith and courage. It makes us glad
to be alive and live and serve our generation in such
noble company. We have measured the hearts of
the people in our community, and we know that they
are rich in sympathy, affection, and understanding
To us, all this gives a glory to life which makes us
happy to be a part erf a community so rich in those
spiritual qualities, which gives us an apprecation of
the past, satisfaction in the present, and faith in the
future.-even a hope and belief in an eternal life.
There are so many things that we would like
to say, but to all we say; THANK YOU FOR EVERY
THING and hope that you understand.

Evea Climate
North Caroliaa
The Sandhills in the south
ern Piedmont and the Ther
mal Beit in the southwestern
Piedmont of North Carolina
boast climates as equable
year around as any part of
the country. A Department
of Commerce study attributes
this largely to the protec
tion afforded by the Appa
lachian Mountains. Also to the
sandy topsoil which provides
rapid drainage so that the
sun is able to dry the sur
face quickly following a rain.

Project Seat
To Coogress
Mocksville - The badly bat
tered Dutchman Creek Wa
tershed project, on which
numerous Davie County resi
dents have spent numerous
months of work, was one of
50 similar projects sent to
Congress on Monday by the
budget bureau.
All 50 projects had been
held up by the bureau be
cause of President Johnson's
position that they should be
acted upon by Congress itself
rather than just by commit
tees of Congress, a spokes
man said.
He said the list was sent
to Congress with the under
standing that in the future
such projects will go before
the House and Senate for
action. >
Under a *54 law, water
shed proposals approved by
the Agriculture Department
have gone to the bureau of
the budget and then have
been submitted to Congress,
with larger projects going to
the House and Senate Public
Works committees and small
er ones to the two Agricul
ture committees for consider
ation.
The Dutchman Creek Wat
ershed project would be a
system of nine floodwater re
tarding structures and would
improve 75 miles of stream
channel that drain into the
Dutchman Creek channel area
in Davie County.
Object of the project would
be to reduce flood hazard on
4.280 acres of agricultural
land within the watershed
and 605 acres of land down
stream on the Yadkin Rive*.
