Duckett of Ree Tree road has been visiting with Mr. and Mrs. James El - 11ott and family of Winston Salem for the past few days. Mrs. Duckett is the mother of Mrs. Elliott. Mr. and Mrs. E. V. Crist, Jr., of Northeast avenue, Grovemont, attended t h e Armed Forces Day program at, Donaldson Air Force Base, Greenville, Saturday, Mgy 21. They reported a very enjoy able as well as interesting day. The display that attract ed their attention most were the giant Cargo-Troop Car rier planes and the flying radar laboratory of the Unit ed States Navy—which is used for reconnaissance and hur ricane hunting. These planes are converted ‘Constella tions,’ and actually penetrate the eye of a hurricane to ob tain meteorological data. Mrs. Sylvana Dodson of Wilson avenue, Grovemont, returned last week from De troit, where she visited her daughter, Mrs. Tom Cormier and family. Mrs. Do'dson said she enjoyed her stay in De troit but it rained every day but one. She reported her trip up was spiced with a little excite ment. It seems that this “big ol’ bull” strayed onto the rail road tracks and decided not to move as the train bore down on him. Mrs. Dodson said the passengers felt a tre mendous jolt and then it sounded like gravel hitting the top of the car. It was probably T-bone steaks in stead of gravel. Luckily no one on the train was injured, but Mr. Bull didn’t fare quite so well. When Mrs. Dodson returned from a picnic Sunday, she was pleasantly surprised to find her daughter and son-in-law, Master Sergeant and Mrs. G. T. SHIPMAN WELL DRILLING & BORING CONTRACTOR Marion, N.

REFLECTIONS— (From Page 1) Our dog has woodticks with his fleas. —R— MAY 28 PRIMARY According to latest count I now have three votes for sure, two more promised, and three probables. The three sure votes—al though I didn’t see the bal lots—were absentees that have already been cast. Two others promised to vote for me “if they can get to the polls on election day.” The three probables are three people interested in a way to double the price of what they have to sell and eliminate all taxes, both state and Federal. Confidentially, I’m not counting too much on the last three. —R— STRANGE STORIES It’s the strangest thing but strange stories have a way of cropping up during an elec tion campaign. For instance. But then as I always say: “That’s their story and they’re stuck with it. May they find company in their misery. —R— HABIT A youngster in school showed every promise, ex cept that he always mixed his past participles. After saying, “I have wrote,” the teacher explained to him how wrong it was and told him to write 'T have writ ten" 100 times. The lines were left on the the teacher’s desk with the note: “I have wrote ‘I have writ ten’ 100 times, like you told me, and now 1 have went home.” Y. A.

OLD FORT NEWS MRS. BONNIE S. REYNOLDS PHONE NO. 155 Old Fort, N. C. Jr.-Sr. Banquet Friday evening, May 20, the junior and senior classes of the Old Fort High school held their annual banquet in the spacious cafeteria of the school. Under soft lights, in beautiful and colorful formal gowns and white dinner jack ets, many a heart stirred to the strains of Hawaiian mus ic. The make-believe Haw aiian cruise was unbelievably realistic, with palm trees swaying and Hawaiian guitars speaking quietly. Upon the scene suddenly appeared the dance pupils of Mrs. Louder milk in a very popular Haw aiian dance. Native dress worn hy the dancers added much to the dream of the Is lands. The menu itself spoke of the tropical regions: Tropical Dream, (fruit cup) Game of the Jungle, (baked ham) Gol den Dream, (baked potatoes) Diced Bamboo, (green beans) Lilikoi and Papa, (tossed sal ad) Toro Cake, (rolls) Island Dream, (coconut cake and ice cream) Beach Pebbles, (nuts and mints) Coffee or tea. After the banquet there was dancing in the star-lit space of the dining area. The Da vis quartet sang several se lections including “Aloha Oe” when it came time to say good night, but the youunger folk dreamed on and on—until noon-time Saturday.
