Road Requests Heard
Representatives of the North
Carolina Department of Trans
portation heard road repair
requests from 30 Duplin resi
dents last Tuesday before
announcing the state priorities
for repairs.
The county has $671,000 to
spend on road improvement as a
result of the passage of the
highway bond issue November
Garland Garrett, a member of
i'.'
' flMBMBBmrnammmmMmmammmmmMmmami
the state Board of Transpor
tation, and Ted Funderburk,
Division Engineer, both of Wil
mington, listened to the
requests and then explained
that the decisions had already
been made.
Lester Houston and Floyd
Kennedy headed a group
concerned with paving SR 1719.
They have been working for two
years to get the road paved, and
previously had met with the
1 . 1 1 . I
county commissioners, DOT
officials in Clinton and in Wil
mington. aira with Garrett.
Although a new traffic count
shows that the road is more
heavily traveled than SR 1723,
which is scheduled to be paved
this year, Garrett said little
could be done at this point.
"This priority system did not
reflect a true picture in regards
to these two roads, but if I were
to change 1719, then it would
only be fair to go and change
back every road in the county,"
said Garrett.
Roads to be paved in Duplin
include the following: .8 miles
RR 1540 from 1539 to Lenoir
County line (near Albertson);
RR 1710-1.6 miles from 1711 to
241 and bridge; RR 1115 - .3 mile
from Hwy 117 to 1114 north of
Maenolia; RR 1373 -1 mile from
Hwy 117 to 1318 north of
Faison; RR 1105 - 2.4 miles from
1104 to 1114 and bridge east of
Magnolia. Total cost for the
paving is S315.000.
Roads to receive stabilization
and widening, with a cost of
SI 75,000. Were: SR 1153 - .5
mile from' Hwy. 41 to deadend in
Wallace: SR 1503 - 2.2 miles
from 1501 to 1500 west of
Faison; SR 1525 - 1 mile from
1502 to 152 west of Faison: SR
state will widen and strengthen
5.1 miles of existing paved road
1003, Magnolia to 1101. $33.
411 was allocated for filling in
holes in existing roads.
Son Of A Gun
By Joo Lani?r
Tato't No FmI Like an Old Fuel
As a youngster, one of the
things I hated to do was tote
stove wood. In the first place. I
had a hard time keeping if from
falling out of my amis. I could
stack the wood so high I could
hardly lift it, aad by the time 1
got to the wood box, I would
have only a few pieces.. .Then I
would frown up my face and tell
Mama. . .1 can't carry that old
Never was so happy as when
.we first got a kerosene heater. It
was no store-bought affair. . .It
was an old tin heater made for
burning wood, but the bottom of
the heater was covered with
sand, a copper tube was welded
or fitted some way to the back of
the heater with an opening into
the firebox. .. .A valve was
placed on the tubing and kero
sene was allowed to drip onto
the sand and it was ignited. .
.As I look back, I don't know
why half the homes in Duplin
County were not burned down,
for there were a great many of
this type heater. . .No carbu
retor. . Just a valve...
Next we graduated to a
durotherm oil heater ? a store
bought beauty. . .A while later,
a fan was added, and as the
years went by, I have moved
from oil, to gas, to electric heat.
. .But I am now considering a
step backwards. .1 still
remember quite vividly stand
ing by a wood heater or fire
place and warming my backside
and then turning for the front to
be warmed... But wood heaters
have changed. . .And so have
homes. . .Dad had no insulation
in the house he was trying to
keep warm. . .The bouse was
not underpinned. . .There were
no storm windows. . .In fact, in
som? of the rooms there was
only outside weather-boarding
with no interior finishing...
Today homes are quite dif
ferent. . .As I read the news
papers and listen to the news on
radio and TV. I am made ever so
aware of a coal strike. . .And I
know that when the stike is
settled, with the wage increases
and other benefits added to the
miners' paychecks. . .all of this
will be passed on to the con
sumer. <h which I am one.. .So I
can expect my electric bill to go
up and everything else vaguely
related to coal. . .The price
increases will be felt in prac
tically every industry. . .And.
these price increases are not
absorbed by the industries. .
.they are passed on to us, the
consumer.. .So with next year's
fuel -threatened by price in
creases. I have been looking to
other ways to lower or keep my
heating bills the same...
I have seen some most
remarkable wood-burnihg
heaters and fireplace inserts. I
have been told {stories and
shown figures that, in the
beginning, were unbelievable. .
An all electric house using heat

so, says he. . .Prove it. 1 said,
and away to his home we. went. .
.It was a two-story brick house
with about 3.000 feet of living
space. . .The home looked to be
in the price range of around $40
to $50 thousand. .1 thinks to
myself, to be surd he doesn't
have old wood-heaters sticking
around in this beautiful home. .
.And sure enough, he didn't .
.He was using fireplace inserts.
. .The brand-name was Buck
