We stood among the crowd watching the excited children as they waited anxiously for the big show. Another Christmas Parade on Thanksgiving Day—quite a change from the parade of the Pilgrims, back in 1821. There is always a degree of expectancy about a parade: the hopping clowns, the marching bands, the pretty floats, the queens, the horses, the sirens, the red fire truck. . . and what have you. The chatter of the street-cluttering mob let up as the band leading the parade came into view. We observed the show of floats from bade of the crowd, over the shoulders and around the hats of over-anxious citizens. Among the long and continuous stream of many entries, | v we saw those in charge were having difficulty getting one of die blown-up jobs through the streets. The curious spectators were pushed back by the huge hands of a tremendous giant which was being pulled along in the parade flat on its back. The thing was so big it could never have been taken through the streets upright. "Is that the giant in 'Jack and the Beanstalk,' Mother?" I heard a little boy ask his parent. "No, honeyshe replied. ' 'Then is it die giant David killed?'' "No, dear," the mother added. "It is just a man-made giant." I turned to Grandpa and said, "It is a shame they made the giant too big." Grandpa was quiet for a moment. Then he replied, Man has always made his image too big. . .bigger than God." tUt S BJfry i * *' -«•» mr 2 J ' «tf' • ]P X * a W* mk IP H^h a FA : RL v fit A ■k 9 r 9 if.- ; , , New ludge And New Sheriff Dr. Robert Long riri Journal Recipe Dr. Robert Long of Statesville, who also practices dentistry in Mocks ville, was named chairman of the new board of county commissioners of Iredell County at their meeting on Monday.
