A "GOOD CITIZEN’* PASSES
The Upchurch Home, The
Methodist Church, The schools
of Hoke, The Woman’s Club of
North Carolina, have lost a Trea
sure in the passing of Mrs. T.
B. Upchurch. We have known
her well fca: 33 years, and in all
that time never have we heard
an unkind remark made about
her, nor even heard of her mak-
J]^ an unjust criticBm of an-
^l^ther. Her life was an inspirat
ion in its goodness and genuine
sincerity.- i^o her, home was
suprfVM^iii she had time for
alt-^ill^^ppsad civic interests.
^‘deserves the title
^Good at;izen.”
POOLE’S MEDLEY
j|;i-
i By D. SCOTT POOLE
You.llave learned this lesson in
Jhistery: On Sunday morning Dec
ember 7th, 1941, while Japanese en
voys were supposed to be doing all
they could to prevent war by diplo
macy—setting ttie matters of state
between representatives of the two
countries without warning, by land,
sea and air Japanese made the most
saivage attack upon bases in the Ha-
1|aian Islands, destroying numbers
^ Stored airplanes, and defens^ss
^ps as they rested at an^or.
A few days later, because of air-
ids civilians in Luzon, old persons,
lomen and children were from sev.
cities were ordered out of their
^ome-towns for fear of air raids,
imd the Japanese bombed these de
fenseless noncombattants, killing and
wounding numbdrs.
On or about Christmas Day the
American commandant ordered the
'^antiaircraft guns removed from
Manila, «id thci dty was declared an
Often dty. That has been done fre
quently of late years to save cities
^ In wartom countries from destruct
ion. Witbii^ and after the antiaircraft
gans had, been, removed, the Japs
Iwmbed'ililie defenseless city for three
hhars, 4eltrayiog much of the dties
cdd, and loved institutions. It is saM
tee "Japanese’ made targets of
schools and the like.
Japanese will reap their, re
ward. jSin has its natural conse.
icticm. I v^h I could
ri^-feel like retaliating, but I feel
that justice should be meted
'dui. The day of retribution wiU come,
^j^akyo will be destroyed, and the
Jipanese will never be a national
. apinfioh for consideration-again.,
cBcmy hunger, teed him, if he thirst,
give him drink,” We must do jusUy,
love mercy, and_w^ humbly with
thy God. *Tt is a cry from what
we know as Christian doctrine, and
what we know is going oh in tee
world today.
Every human being’s worth to
humanity is based on his or her de
pendability, and their dependability
is determined by their truthfulness,
and honesty. “All liars shall have
their portion in eternal punishmjent’
The diaracter needed is integrity.
THIS WEEK IN DEflNSI
Old Bill Copeland borrowed a horse
to ride to tee saltworks to get salt.
He promised to bring back only one
bushel of salt oh. the horse. Of course
it was imderstood he rode with one
bushel on the horse, but when he
found he had sufficient money to
buy two biAhels, and he knew how
scarce salt was back hmne, he bought
two bushels and walked back home
brining one bushel on his *own
back, walking, with one bushel on
the horse’s back. He knew of no
other way of being truthful.
Years afterward when two neigh,
bors were at law over ai disputed
land comer, BUI Copeland came and
named the spot where the beginning
comer once stood; “Thar, or tear
abouts’’, and everybody believed him,
and teat lawsuit ended.
During tee latter part of the World
War, when the fighting was furious,
a Negro trooper wash seen running
at breakneck speed toward the rear,
and a colonel call:
“Halt, there Negro. (Why are you
unning so?”)
“Good goshm boss, ’cause I caint
fly.”
“I have the best job at all. I have
tee whole day to myself.”
_“What is your job?”
“I’m a night watchman.”
' “I do not think aU women are
vain. Woman was made before mir
rors.”
“Ves, and they have been before
them eyer since.”
“Will you not be very happy when
yoiir sentence expires?” asked a lady
in State Prison.
“I don’t know, mam,” said tee pri-
■Soner, gloomUy.
“You don’t know? Why?”
“I’m in for life.”
“Where is your chivalry?”
“I swapped it for a Buick.”

Cross war fund drive reached a total

contributions coming in tee last few

A WEEK OF «BE WAK
Twenty-six nations, incudhig tee
U. S., Britain, Russia and China,
signed an agreement pledging their
military and ecbnomic resources te
a finish fight against the Axis and
banning any separate peace. The
nations also subscribed to “a common
program of purposes and principles’
embo^ecl te the Roosevelt-Churdiill
“Atlantic Charter.”
The signatories of the declaration
include Ausralia,, Belgium Canada,
Costa Rica, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, the
Dominican .Republic, Salvador,
Greece, Guatemala, Haiti,' Honduras,
India, Luxemburg, the Netherlands,
New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway,
Panama, Poland, South Africa and
Jugoslavia. The decl^tion m^, it
said,’be “adhered to by other nations
which are, or M(hich may be, render
ing material assistance and contribut
ions to the struggle for victory over
Hitlerism.”
SHIPS
The Maritime Commission said the
ship-a-day goal in launching of new
ships has been reached and .by the
second quarter of' 1942 delivery
should reach two ships a day. The
tilommission took over 16 Finnish
ships that have been tied up in U.
S. ports. The Navy announced launch,
ing of a destroyer, a floating work-
shpp and a minesweeper, and said
keels were laid for two more destroy
ers. The Navy also said it is con
verting the French liner Normandie
into an auxiliary. .
LABOR SUPPLY AND TRAINING
President Roosevelt denounced as
“stupid” and “unjust” the increas
ing discharges of loyal, efficient
workers in American industries
“simply because they were born
abroad or because they have foreign-
sounding names.” He said such un
fair discharges engender “the very
distrusts and disunity on vriiich our
enemies are counting.”
AUTO AND TIRES
The OPM banned all sales of new
passenger automobiles and the SPAB
approved an OPM plan to halt pro
duction of these vehicles ’’within a
few ,weeks.” The temporary ban on
tee retail sale, delivery, purchase, or
lease of new passenger cars- and pf
new light apd heavy trucks, will re-^
main in effect-imtil January 15 at
which time a permanent rationing,
program will be put in effect.
OPM delegated to the Office of
Price Administration authority to
withhold all new tires except for
essential health, safety and industrial
services. OPA set up tire-ratieming
boards in each county of the nation
and issued regulations providing no
tire can be obtained eyen for “es
sential” users unless a local board
has approved tee application and the
number of tires sold in each county
is within tee county quota. New
tires were, defined as those used lea>
than 1,000 miles. No new restrictiofis
were placed on tee sale of retreaded
or recapped tires.

ian pilots between 21 and 46 to ferry
