Edgar Hunter, Superinten
dent of Yancey County
has been informed tint Yancey
County will receive one of
the pilot programs next year
in kindergarten- early child
hood education. Fifty four
such programs have been
placed in operation during the
last two years across the state.
This year twenty more are be
ing added.
The program provides finds
for teachers, aides, materials
and equipment for forty six
five-year-old children for a
nine month term. During the
first year of operation the pro
gram will operate basically as
a self-contained kinder
but is expected to gradually
develop into a K-3 program
involving team- teaching, non
gracling and multi-level group
ing of students. The program
will be closely observed by the
Early Childhood Education peo
ple in the State Department cf
Public Instruction and will
work closely with the Learning
Institute of North Carolina.
The program will begin in eae
ly September, 1972.
Although the program will
be coordinated with the ESEA
Title I kindergarten programs
presently in operation in the
county schools, it will be open
to children from all economic
and ethnic groups and will re
present a cross-section of the
school community.

To Ed and Carolyn Yuziuk
Burnsville, N. C. 28714
We who have affixed our names below, being Christian min
isters and pastors of the churches of Yancey and kitchell
Counties, in appreciation of the services you have rendered
in the three years since you came among us, would like, to
make the following statement, which we hope you will sea fit
to publish as evidence of our support of your cause:
First, re feel that you have given Yancey County, and
more recently, Mitchell County, papers "Os which to be proud.
You have not only adequately and correctly reported our lo- .
cal news, but where it concerned our mountain area, you hove
kept us well advised on issues of state and national import
ance .
r . .• ..
Secondly, we have noted that where a stand was needed on
any natter pertaining to moral issues, you have taken one
boldly, yet always giving space for those who wished to ex
press opposing views..We like this attitude.
Thirdly, you have been most generous in donating space to
publicize any church activity, regardless of denomination.
It seens to us that you have tried to treat all churches
with equal courtesy, and have given more space to religious
and civic functions than any editor in our memory.
You cane among us as strangers a little more than three
years ago, and you have so entered into our community life
that we feel you are truly one of "our own".
In short, we hope you will continue to edit our county
papers, whatever the names by which they are called, and we
urge our cit\zans to pray for you and support you in what
ever way they can. >• >

Very sincerely yours,
