Beaufort Rotary Hears Woodard Members of the Beaufort Rotary club heard Dr. W. L. Woodard. Beaufort dentist, speak on "Child Dental Care" at their meeting lapt Tuesday night. Dr. Woodard spoke primarily about the dental needs of children in the eight to 12 age group, the period when children are losing their "baby" teeth and getting a new set. He gave the Beaufort Rotarians some pointers on how to care for their children's teeth and gave a list of foods necessary for proper development of the teeth during this period of the child's life. He also spoke of the necessity of proper dental care during these years and illustrated this point with his experiences as a member of the State Health department in another county in North Carolina. He told the members that during the year he worked with this agen cy he worked on the teeth of many | children in the county. Some ten 'years later, he had occasion to re turn to that county and observe the continued work on those chil dren. The work he had done and which had been continued had re sulted in a reduced loss of teeth in those children of 95 per cent. He emphasized that the care of childrens' teeth during these cru cial years will have a great deal to do with the health of their teeth during later years. Proper care at this stage is most important, he said, and should receive careful consideration by parents. Six Morehead City men were visiting Rotarians at the tweeting.

Stunned Silence Falls Here v As Election Results Come In It's all over but the shouting ... 1 but there isn't much shouting go ing on in Carteret county. A stunned silence seems to have fallen over the county since the outcome of the election was an nounced. And the stunned are not just the lesing Democrats. The Republicans szem to be in a greater stupor than do the county Democratic fol lowers. Primary comment you're hearing right now from ihe Repub licans is "I didn't really believe it would happen." And some are say ing "I'd hoped so hard but I'm surprised.'' And their jubilance is of the restrained kind. 1 hey 're say ing, "I hope it v. ill be for the Beaufort Club Gives Concerts Mrs. Virginia Hassell, director, and the Beaufort Choral club again presented an excellent program both Wednesday and Thursday ' nights when they gave concerts in the Beaufort and Morehead City | school auditorium for the benefit of the PTA's. The first group consisted of pa triotic songs by the entire club, ending with a medley arranged by Mrs. Hassell. Following those Gar land Morris, tenor, sang a solo, Mat tinata. In the second part of the pro gram. the entire club ang two spirituals. It's Me O Lord and Eze kiel Saw de Wheel.

Well, there's a kind of disbelief ... a kind of refusal to accept what they know is inevitable. And most of them are saying, "If it was the people's will, then that's the way it ought to be." Even more are saying, "We'll wait and see." Maybe things will be better." But ihe dis belief is still there. There's a kind of sadness in the faces of many . . particularly those younger men and women who have never lived under anv government except one run by the Democratic party. It's tounh to lose when you've been on top so long. Even the bitterness is restrained. The die-hard Democrats are saying. "All right, this is what the people wanted. Let them have it." "Ike s.^ys he's goin;4 to clean up this Korean mess. We'll see." "Ike ays he's going to Jo something about the nation's economy. We'll see." "If he's going to Korea like he said, what's he doing on vaca tion?" Some of the Democrats are say ing. "Mavhe a change will be 'or the better." "Maybe there won't be quite so much thievery, at least for a little while. It'll take them at lesst two years to learn how to Meal . . . and then ihey won't have the know-how that 20 years has given the Democrats." SI ill others are talking like this. "You'd better get your money out of tho bank right now. The de press ion is on its way." A man high in financial circles in the county was heard to say. "Well, I voted for Eisenhower, and think there will be only a slight re cession. Maybe that will be ?*ood . . . it will take some of the air out of the dollar." But he adds. "I hope I've done the right thing." The number who are saying "Well. I didn't lose my vote. I marked a split ticket this year. I voted for "Ike" but 1 voted Demo cratic the rest of the wav."

The official count shows that 7,247 votes were cast for presidential candi dates by county voters. The county followed the trend in the rest of the Tar Heel state and voted Democratic. The Democratic candidate, Stevenson, polled 4,280 votes and the Republican candidate, Eisen-? iiuwci, |MJui-ii i vines. Although the county did not vote with the nation in the choice for j the next president, they did follow i the nation-wide trend of going to i the polls in record numbers. F. R. Seeley, chairman of the county board of elections, told the ' NEWS-TIMES that the hoard is j very gla;l that the largest number j of voters known in the history of I the county have cast their ballot. 1 "We call particular attention." he said, "to the new precinct No. 2 in Morchcad City which together with the Morehead City precinct No. 1 cast 1983 votes for president i which is greater for Morehead City by 500 votes than the largest total ever cast." He continues. "When t Luther Hamilton ran in the pri marv for Congress against Graham i Barden, he had more than 1400 votes which together with some '75 absentee votes not properly notar- 1 ized would have made 15(H) votes. That is the largest previous vote j cast for Morehead City." The elections board chairman further says that the vote from1 Newport is reflected by the great increase in population at Newport. ) And. he reports, the vote rrom j Beaufort. 1.581 votes, is more than 300 votes greater than any previous i vote in the to\yn. Secley says that the county elec- j tions board believes that more than 300 voters were absent from the towns to the east engaged in fish ing. These people, Seeley s:?' . , would certainly have voted as .hey have never belonged to the stay-at home class on election day.
