Carteret Gonnty News-Times A Merger of The Beaufort News (est. 1912) & The Twin City Times (est. 1930) EDITORIAL PAGE TWMT, raniARY 28. 1?S? Sengs oi Brotherhood All who hoard the Utah Centennial ehorus. which made numerous appearances in the county la*t week, have nothing but words of praise for their performance. It is probably coincidental that they were touring this section during Brotherhood Week, but it was a splendid dem onstration of brotherhood in action. Members of a faith about which there is much misunderstanding, these young men, through the universal language of music, spoke to we who are of many faiths. In the realm of public relations they are setting an example which other churches could well follow. School principals, heads of civic clubs, and others who accepted the chorus's offer to perform displayed broadmind ednoss sought for by advocates of brotherhood. We are sure that in several instances throughout their travels, the chorus has been denied their request to appear, not literally being told. "No. you are Mormons," but in veiled terms and trumped up excuses, "Sorry, we don't have time for such a program this week" or "Our schedule is such that it can't be altered . . Visitors to Markers Island are impressed with the new rec reation hall which is now in the process of completion at the rear of the Church of Latter Day Saints. The hall, 50 feet . wide and 80 feet long, can be used either as a regulation basketball court or dance floor. Church members plan to use it for those purposes and for serving suppers. Total cost of construction is $40,000, a portion of this met bv the 205 members of the church and the remain der paid from the church general treasury at Salt Lake City, Utah. Missionaries of the Mormon faith first visited Markers Is land on Jan. 20. 1888. Many residents, now members of the Church of Latter Day Saints, can remember when they ran Elder Hansen off the island and burned his church. But in 1936 a chapel was built there and from that focal j>oint the congre gation has grown. The expulsion of F.klcr Hansen did not create the headlines which the imprisonment of two of his kind brought last week. In Prague. Czechoslovakia, police imprisoned two' Mormon missionaries on that now familiar charge, indicative of tyranny, "entry of a prohibited area." This is a further indication that the spirit of brotherhood has many, many miles to travel before it can embrace the world. The jourtiey was started 1950 years ago.* Even skeptics and pessimists admit that progress has been made. Men of great faith in these troubled times see in the mind of the average man a higher concept of human values. Faith and a fight for higher ideals can bring triumphs believed unattainable. Somehow, sometime, this thing called brotherhood will prove to be one of the tools which will pry open iron curtains. I Sou'easter By Captain Ilonry Harvey Hamilton, jr.. of More head City is telling folk's he's go ing to run for general assembly man from Carteret counts Vi? the j'raDevine, I understand that H. S. C.ibbs has already been asked to run. Just where Harvey comes in is anybody's guess. Maybe he"s just j got it in his head that he's gOTHis' run for sumpn. From where I sit. the proposed Scottassell ticket has the boys n bit worried. Things seem to be j shaning un into the same situation we had in the McDonald-Hoey fight here in '36. Bruce Ftheridge. "Duke of Dare" ? and well known to many fisher J men by virtue of his years of sm- j vice on tho Bo"rd of Conservation j and Develonment formally an I nounced his irtention last week to j run for assemhlv. Scott ousted him from tlr* chair I manshin of the Conservation and , Development beard and Fthnridee now onposes. for the seat in the j assembly, the man with Scott's blessings. Dewey Hayman. Ilayman was appointed late last summer along with Tony Scamon of More hesd Citv, to serve on the Atlantic States Marine Commission. Who did the appointing? The gover nor. of course. But let's get off politics and get down to something that makes sense: Basketball. Sure am proud of our teams. Glad I diin't take any bets on Beaufort playing Mori* head City. But if there are going to be uosets, a tournament is the most likely place to see them. It's good to see Marshall Ayscue ! out of the hospital. The boys that rustle hooch in the hollers prob ably thought thev would have easy ! sledding for a while. Their delight was short-lived. Marshall's back on 1 the job. And now in closing, as the prea cher says and continues for 20 minutes I was in the office of one of my lawyci friends the oth er day and found ini.s rhyme in the back of "We the People," one of his magazines. Things like this reach flood tide about election time so here's the first pa it of the deluge: Deipocratic Dialogue Father, must I go to work? No, my lucky son. We're livinq now on Easy Street On dough from Washington. We've left it up to Uncle Sam, So don't ^et exercised. Ncbcdy has to give a d ? We've all been subsidized. But if Sam treats us all so well And feeds us milk and honey. Please, daddy, tell me whet the li ne's going to use for money. Don't worry. Bub. there's not a hitch In this here noble plan .. He simrlv soaks the filthy rich And helps the common man. But father won't there come a time When they run out of cash And we have left them not a dime When things will go to smash? My faith in you is shrinking, You nosey little brat. You do to much thinking, son, To be a Democrat. Which brings to mind the elec tions in Britain last week. The conservatives, led by that indom itable Mr. Churchill, made a show ing dreamed of. but not expected to be seen. Will the hand out gov ernments ever lose? As A1 Smith cnce said. "Whoever heard of shooting Sunta Cl?us?" Oleomargarine, soap, machine oil, vitamin pills and lipstick all can be made from whale oil.

Thursday evening the Beaufort | Betas were guests of the Morehead City Betas at a delightful party in the Morehead Recreational center. Presidents of both clubs gave a report on their club's activities for the past year. Mr. Joslyn, coun ty superintendent of schools, gave an interesting talk oi "Power." Guests then enjoyed dancing and talking, followed by delicious re freshments of punch and cookies. We enjoyed a wonderful Val entine party at the gala decorated A STITCH IN TIME Do it now!
