WHERE ELSE CAN BUY SO MUCH CAR You all know that people with more money than anything else want what we call “hard ttoes” so they can get more for their dollars. A year'or two ago, the state had a surplus of several million dollars, anl for mercy’s sake some of fee larger banks paid fee State one per cent for feat money, though-they didn’t, want it. A sensible man wants a balanc ed budget, with neither a surplus nor a deficit, a small deficit pre ferable to a surplus. suppose the Legislative money committees are responsible for fee present state of affairs. The state budget is off balance something like thirty-eight million dollars. The legislature has fasted a mon th’s time, serving Without pay. On^ thing would save lots of expense, and that is a majority of the registered voters should be required to call an election. , The women of the Presbyterian I Church are holding two meetings in Hoke County this week, one at Antioch Thursday evening, and one in Raeford Friday. But for the women, not much religious practice would be practiced in America, and hone elsewhere. Go up to the Sanatorium, get permission to go up on the Su perintendent’s porch, and take a view aroimd. Take a look at the Gape Pear Valley, and then at the Pee Dee Valley. Take a look around. There may be a more picturesque view, but none pret tier anywhere. Those high hills aroimd Mont rose are unusual to say the least and the flower beds and hills and valleys all around are charming. To find happin^s at home is a worthy endeavor, and to find all that is possible is every one’s duty. Look for homemade pleasures. In no year in its history have 90 many houses been built in Raeford,.and not only feat, but much has been done to beautify homes. The present Legislature will more than likely provide treat ment of alcoholics, but fee coun ties who boast of liquor ^ntrol shuld haVe fee greater part of feat expense. The Governor is striving to have a real Corn Producing State or ours, the Old North State. Hope there will not any of it be furnished the liquor stills. Dr. Morgan said here in 1948 that the fact that because so many people believed in the Re surrection was evidence of its be ing just what it claims to be. The same is true about the Bible. Satan and his host have done all possible to destniy the Bible, but it is gaining ground daily and constantly as the cen turies go. One strange thing is there has never been any glass made of North Carolina sand so far as we know, but there used to be salt works. Heard a farmer say Saturday feat lie had'com with four blades another said bis ootton was “in the crook.” Ifr may or may not get out of feat. Jones Farm Agent Reports Giant Pine The search for North Carolina's largest loblolly pine tree led to fee farm of C. M. Gray of Route xcc&i> A. V.

In. addition, Gray has three smaller trees, one measuring 144 indies is circumber^ce, another, 138 inches, and a third, 133 indies.
