"Don't fill it until you prove it
is needed. Vacancy is no
etc**". ..Th? is, in essence,
whgt the County Commissioners
is one of the greatest actions
taken thus far this year by the
Board. Many times I have heard
there age more goof-offs on the
county, payroll than there are
actual workers. At budget time,
the Commissioners stated they
were against any new positions,
and now they have said that
onoe a Job is vacant. . .before
anyone is hired to fill it . .the
job has to be examined and the
need for it justified. . . .The
Commissioners stated they
would also ask the School Board
to adopt the same resolution or a
similar one. . .So often we, the
tax payers, are asked to bite the
bullet and do without this or that
(fir some project or so some
?caa be hired. . .Well,
a rumbling sound in the
Aot-so-far-off distance that is
mdting itself heard, . .dearer
daily.. .and it is seeming to say
to the elected officials and
others hired. . .You bite the
bullet. . .You cut down. . .You
do without to help the County. .
The taxpayer is fed up.. .If you
are so sure a new job la needed,
then fund it with some of your
salary, not mine. . .Don't sell
us. . .Sell yourself. . .Sacrifices
should be made, gad it is time

My eating habits sure have
changed over the years.. .When
I was a kid. 1 remember we had
rutabaga pot-liquor. . .Never
have I eaten anything so bad
thinking it waa good. . .On a
odd day, a cup of rutabaga
pot-liquor and some cornbread
Has a wonderful treat. . .At
least, Mom would tell me that... .

My lovely wife stent to War
saw's new Town Hall to the
Police Department I told her
the door to the waiting room, for
some foolish reason,' was locked
and she would have to go to the
door used to bring in the
prisoners. . . But as usual, she
went to the wrong door, the door
I told her was locked. : .From
inside, the dispatcher yelled for
her to go to the other door. . .
When die got to the other door,
she pulled on it and it wouldn't
open. . .She pounded on it, so
Policeman Steve Knowles
opened the door for her and told
her she would have to push on
the button to open the door. .
.She said, "That dumb Joe
didn't tell me I had to push the
button." .. .Son-of-a-Gun. ...

vehicles, which included ?
repair truck, and the motion was
seconded by Chairman D.J.
Fussell.
Tuesday Kelly moved to
rescind this action saying,
"Perhaps I acted too swiftly. It
was unfair to the people
included." He said a committee
should be appointed to review
this situation across all county
departments and make a
recommendation to the Board.
Commissioner William E.
Costin seconded the motion to
rescind, saying he felt it was
wrong to single out one depart
ment in the county.
Fussell and J. W. Hoffler
voted against the motion, and
Costin, Kelly and Artiss Albert
son voted for it.
Fussell said, "I voted against
it because by doing so I felt I
?ou|d save the county $5,000 to
$10,060 a Tear in tiipayett*
money." He added, "Xnytimti
you're going to be intimidated
into rescinding a motion, I think
you are making a grave mis
take."
Albertson commented,
" 'They' is the wrong word. I
have not been intimidated."
Costin added, "1 have not been
intimidated."
Asked what he meant by A
"intimidation," Fusseil stated.
"I have no other comments."
Fusseil also resigned as com
missioner in charge of the
county garage, landfill and
mosquito control at Tuesday's
meeting. He was named to the
post two weeks ago. He said he
had not received die cooperation
of the other commissioners.
tn other action, the Board
voted to freeze county jobs.
Costin made the motion,
saying "No vacancies are to be
filled until the department head
justifies existence of the po
sition." Fusseil seconded the
motion, and it was approved
unanimously.
Albertson observed that "in
view of the heavy tax burden on
our citizens, 1 feel it is our duty
tn curb spending wherever

collected from area merchants
and people of the community.
Everything from a hen and her
biddies to s car were put on the
hi addition to the auction,
then was a flea market, which
is always a hit, and a large rack
of second-hand dotbes. One
lady working at the sale even
found one of her best dresses
she had mistakenly given to the
sale. She quickly paid the price
marked before anyone eUe
could get it. Barbecue sand
wiches and plate dinners were
sold beginning at 11 a.m. They
sold as fast as they could be
made.
R. T. Moore of the Northeast
community won die first ham
given away, and C. W. Williams
of Chinquapin won the tfrond
?'i.-al&jtf'A'- iiWJr
one.
Auctioneer Col. Bobby
Cavenaugh did > great job of
keeping the bidding going
strong as he reminded the
crowd But ill funds were going
to support the Fire and Rescue
Squad so they could support the
community.
The sale ended at 3 p.m., and
the monthly family-style supper
was waiting for the hungry folks
who have teamed of the food
that can be obtained in Chin
quapin on the first Saturday
night in every mouth. People
from as far away as Swansboro
and Wilmington come to Chin
quapin to enjoy the pit-cooked
(over oak coals) barbeque as
well as fried chicken. It is not
every day you can eat all the
food you want for S3, but you
can at the Chinquapin Volunteer
Fire and Rescue Squad's meals
served the first Saturday night
of every month. You are invited
to join in on the good food.
Eight hogs, 300 pounds of
chicken, 120 pounds of potatoes,
70 pounds of cornmeal, and
several large cans of beans, as
well as many bags of french
fries and gallons of iced tea
were served during the supper.
If you missed the auction this
year, make plans for the one
next year as it should be bigger
and better. You can eat family
style, regular plate, or take it
home at next month's supper.
The Chinquapin Volunteer
Fire and Rescue Squad extends
their appreciation to everyone
who gave anything to the auc
tion, to the people who patron
ized the auction and supper, and
especially to Col. Cavenaugh for
donating nis time and talents, as
well as to Timmy, who came up
and volunteered to relieve
Cavenaugh so he could take a
break to eat, and to the farmers
who gave six of the eight hogs
that were prepared for the
supper.
The Departments are
operated completely on a volun
teer basis, and no one receives
any financial reward. Their goal
is to serve the entire community
when needed. They say, "Help
Us To Help You."
