UMC Bma'i List Denny Lewis Whaiey from ftiulavme ad due University 3210 i KC The County Commissioners e have requested that a refer en- t dura be held on August 3, 1969 1 to provide them with the au- ? thoriry to assist with projects 1 throughout Duplin County that I would minimize the danger of fl- * ooding of the NortheaSlliapr S Fear River, and would aid in c the development of watershed r projects on the other streams je in the ?ounty. This vote of C the people for this authojjjjfls s necessary in order to tmm ad- J vantage of the several programs < .that are available from time to time that provide the necessary ,< planning assistance and funds to get these programs underway, even though very little cost to the county is anticipated. 1 The Army Corps of Engin eers have proposed a flood con trol project on the Northeast River that involves a 100 foot channel along the lower pen of the river to increase the "Run off" of flood waters and a pro posed 6,600 acre lake above Kornegafto provide a * 'holding* action" le prevent extensive ft? 1962?). This proposed 5,5q? acre lake will also provide reft creation - boating, fishing, ap4 bathing tor the entire area, ^d"^ stimated one million people innually for recreation. The -ake would contain sufficient rater storage to furnish up to en million gallons of water ler day for town, industrial, and igricultural usage. This water tor age has been assured by the ooperatlon of the State Depart nent of Air and Water Beaour fg by .their underwriting$150, 100 for its costs. The proposed itate and federal funds of ever >10,000,000 leaves only a small estimated cost to the county ind most of the county's cost ould be recovered by recreat on and water-usage fees. Public Law 566, the Congres sional Small Watershed Act of 968, provides up to 80 percent if the funds necessary to de velop Soil and Water Conser 'atioe projects along our :reeks. The other approximate !0 per cent of the costs plus he maintenance cost would be laid by the county. In addition to the Northeast liver project, proposals forfi iod control, drainage and con servation improvement for lockflsh Creek, Cypress Cr ?ek, Muddy Creek, Limestone atjjon to all towns, as well as f?m people as drainage, flood cafetrol, water storage, andpon d* for recreation would be in * ^?e do not have to tell you w&t the problems are in Dup lflrCouqty, but If these probr _ l#ns? Io-e?er 'be *?Ved, action has to be taken, a*}.ttfcen soon before it Is too lMf^thar Is why we urge you to'jjjiian Saturday, August 2, 1998 for the Watershed Impro vement Program. The amount of tax on which you will be voting ip the maximum amount thgt will ever be needed to de velop our watersheds. Ebt, we % that one or two cents will bdr enought to do the job, how ever, in a lot of cases, this tap of work can be financed bjrthe use of non tax funds without ever levying any additional tax at all. , A favorable vote on August 2 U urged by your Soil and Water QonUervarioo District Super tiqa and Flood Control Comm ittee/and bjf, representatives of the Duplin Development Com mission, Agricultural Stabil Why - Theatre For ChMren i Briefly, It jbay be stated that we should hsve theatre for children because it has been proved that the child learns best when the process of learn ing is enjoyable. But more specifically, how does the child benefit from this experience, what are its intr insic values? In answer to this, we believe that a well conceived theatre for children should: 1. Set <?> a hjgh standard of entertainment-a standard that the child can apply hot only to theatre but to die motion pic ture, the radio, wd television. 2. Develop m interest in, and understanding of* the thea tre, to the end of raising the standard of all theatre. 3. Introduce the cbtfc to the arts in a way that is imposs ible for the schools to do, so that he may not %row up a "cultural illiterate," Chil dren's Theatre gives the grea test opportunity for the fusion and the blending of all the arts, thus adding to the child's un derstanding and appreciation. 4. Stimulate the chad's cr eative lmagninatioc. 5. Set standards of good speech and diction. 6. Establish social values. 7. Influence behavior patt erns by setting up standards of such qualities as courage, honor, industry and unselfish ness. 8. Broaden the child's hor izons by acquainting him with the modes of other lands, races and creeds. 9. Helps the child gain an appreciation of good literature. 10. Lead to new Interests and hobbles. 11. Briqg beauty and laughter Into young lives, particularly to those who might otherwise have little of it. 12. Develop and encourage creative ability in thecommun 13. Give Impetus and encou ragement to promising writers to the end that they may devote thefr talents to the Children's Theatre field. These are some of the bene fits of theatre for children. < BBST Rtpoiti* |r Increase Branch Banking and Trust Company reported increased deposits, loans, total resour ces, and net operating earnings for the first half of 1969.
