'Humbling Jn 6lau'
By: Mrs. Neal R. Kitchens
Every time I hear the beau
tiful voice of our own Katie
Powers, I am deeply grateful
that she came back to Clay to
live and work where she is so
badly needed. Miss Powers
not only sings but she teaches
piano. She is very talented.
Many seek the lights of the
bright city. Katie says she is
content to work at home where
she feels she is needed.
Seems that Sam Adkins had
been carrying a hundred dollar
bill around in his pocket for
some time awaiting the oppor
tunity to put it to good use.
The opportunity came his way
last week when he had a visit
from his grandson Ronnie
Adkins of Eugene Oregon, who
is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Jimmy Gene Adkins formerly
of Clay County. Ronnie is 18
and weighs in at 180 pounds.
He was an honor student at
Eugene Oregon this spring.
He spent the summer in Mich
igan and where he was em
ployed. He came by to visit
in Hayesville enroute home
where he will enter the Univ
ersity of Oregon. The Adkins
can well be proud of a fine
young man like this. 1 feel the
hundred dollars went toagood
cause . . . there's just noth
ing like these grandchildren.
Seems that Br. Ray Rogers
over at Ray's Pharmacy has
given his wife Rheta a new
title . "LITTLE SQUAW
Rheta who works right along by
the side of her husband Ray (
all 90 pounds of her) was miss
ing from the pharmacy during
the week end.
Well, an) way, Rheta went
over to Hall County Hospital
Thursday night and gave birth
to a five pound girl, Jennifer
Ray. She was back on the job
Tuesday morningat8:30ready
to resume her work at Ray's
Pharmacy.
Kiieu has been taking a
lot of fussing from some, so
she is now threatning to go
home and order a push
button bed and take a month
off. Ray says why should she,
that the Indian women stopped
by the trail side to give birth
to their babies, and she has
earned her title.
Congratulations to the Rog
ers. Bet they hold a record
that few can match. Off hand
I don't know a single one that
has come up to this.

A young high school boy
rushes into the Sheriff's Office
with his hand out "Can 1

Before he can finish the
question 1 have already ans
wered, "I'm sorry, but no, we
do not have any".
He wanted a Drivers Hand
book and so have many others
that we can not supply. Lay
ing around on the shelves
gathering dust are plenty of
these Drivers Manuals that
are desperately needed by
people who are trying to get
their license.
The State of North Carolina

If you have a Drivers Hand

will you please bring it to
