Adams is shown receiving his Retirement Bible from Administrative Manager , tred h'.anes and Department Manager, Hubert "Ned" Davis. . . .Around (Continued from page I A) jutant General Hubert \1. Leonard. Also John Balfour, chairman of the Hoke County Commissioners had something to say. We feel that the city should have been represented on the speakers' stand, because they put money into the purchase of land for the new building. The mayor was recogni/ed. but didn't sa\ anything. The open house, after the speeches, gave everyone a chance to look over the new building. It is nice and built for the new concept of the National Guard. It is an asset to the county and city and helps the looks of that part of the city. The parade on Friday after noon, sponsored by the American Legion Post 20, was also a big suc cess. It was well attended and all units in the parade performed as one would expect on this occasion. The sky divers drew applause and added much to the day. Lt. General Jack Mackmull. post commander of f ort Bragg, was high in the praise of the post putting on the parade. He stated it was much larger than some in the bigger cities. This is the first for the post, but they now have a foundation to build for a bigger and belter event next year. Naomi Johnson, a teacher at Upchurch Junior High School, was by the office Monday and this time she didn't have a Letter to the Editor. She had a picture of hot returning a pocketbook to the owner. It seems Naomi tound a pocketbook on the 401 bypass neat the school. When she looked inside it contained $280. The owner, Het ty Goins Hardin had placed the pocketbook on her car last Friday when she had a flat tire. She dro\e off and the pocketbook fell to the ground. I know that Mrs. Hardin was glad to gel her pocketbook back, but Naomi is one in a lew that would ha\e returned that much money. A bouquet to you, Naomi! Nancy Lowe, administrator ui the new McCain Prison Hospiiil. spoke to the Raeford Kiwants c Uib last Thursday night. She stated that the first prisoners would be coming in by the end of the month. The hospital will be in full opera tion by February I, 19X4. I hi- is good to hear, because this will lu lp the economy of the count \ John Plummer stated at the Kiwanis Club meeting alter Mrs. l.owe's talk, that it brought back something that a teacher told him when he was in school here. According to Plummer. Mrs. D M McFadyen, the teacher, said that a boxcar released at the steam plant at McCain and with all switches open would roll, unassisted, to Jacksonville. Fla. Now I have never heard this before, but according to a reliable source, Clyde Upchurch, Jr. said that he had heard the same stoi\.
