Hoke Coaaty Librariaa
Our new children's books have
arrived. We are excited, and we
hope our young readers will share
our enthusiam.
Betsy McNeill and Louise
McDiannid are working hard to
get them ready for the shelves.
The books are a gift from Jo
Sinclair Northrop, and they were
given to the library in memory of
her parents. We thank Mrs. Nor
throp for her generous contribu
tion to the Hoke County Public
Library. I know the children will
enjoy them for many years.
The library wishes to thank
teachers from J.W. McLauchlin
Elementary School for the Hallo
ween art display in the library.
Students from the classes of
Janice Worthy, Mary Bounds,
Ann. Shannon and Qertfe Wright
are certainly helping to nuke the
library come alive with the spirit of
Halloween. We invite young artists
from all the schools to give the
library art work for display. We
love to have the opportunity to
share art from the schools with the
community.
The library has had several
school classes to tour the library
recently. We enjoy having the
young people in the library. Please
call the library to arrange a tour.
The library is in the process of
having installed a new phone
system. This means that our Dial
a-Story is just around the corner.
As soon as the new system is in
stalled, we will advertise the begin
ning of the Dial-a-Story programs.

Raeford native is honored
by Wake Forest University
A native of Raeford, who is a
photographer, author ^and
sculptor, received the distinguished
service citation from the alumni
association of Wake Forest
University at a homecoming ban
quet October 26.
The award went to Arthur D.
Gore Jr., who now lives in Mor
rison, Colorado, a suburb of
Denver, where he has a
photography studio.
Hundreds of his works are
displayed in colleges, schools,
hospitals and churches. Several of
his pieces of sculpture are on
display in high schools and chur
ches in the Denver area.
Gore's book, titled "Speak Soft
ly to the Echoes," tells of his grow
ing up in Hoke County and is il
lustrated with his color
photographs. He also is the author
of "Images. of_ Yesterday,", and
has had numerous poems publish
ed. He has won first place in art
shows and has been featured in
"Art Gore Specials" on several
Denver television stations. Last
year he was featured in a half-hour
documentary which was carried in
270 public information TV sta
tions.
The Governor of Colorado pro
claimed September 1, 1983, as
"Art Gore Day" for the state in
connection with "Art Gore
Week," which was celebrated in
Morrison.
Gore was one of three people
who received distinguished service
citations which were awarded for
service to their professions, their
communities and their Alma
Mater.
The other recipients were Dr.
William R. Cowan of RockviUe,
Maryland, retired director of the
Armed Forces Institute of
Pathology, and James Edward
Peters of Salem, Virginia, who has
set a world record (20,000 people(
in signing donors for the Eye Bank
Association of America.
Gore's citation read, in part,
"The goal of Wake Forest- or any
university- is to create in her
student; the desire, to seek truth
and to create'beauty. Art Gore of
the Class of 1949 exemplifies his
Alma Mater's contribution to the
intellect and the soul. Through his
artistry as a photographer and a
poet, he has captured and created
beauty, and has won the acclaim of
critics and the American public
alike..."
