Bt SIDE GLANCES — There was a lot of real youthful enthusiasm — you had to be young to take the pushing— at the big Johnson rally in Raleigh—Members of the dig nified Council of State stand ing about the Airport Term inal here for nearly two hours waiting patiently for the Top Man—a restful time off from their Statewide Democratic campaigning. Those able to see President and Mra. Johnson at close EULA GREENWOOD range remarked later about how much better-looking they are in person than in pic tures — no match for the Kennedy’s, of course, but far, far above the average, even for Texas. The President’s car —the same one used in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963—is now bullet proof, with cab up — was waiting for him at the air port — and is now equipped with Presidential mike and loudspeaker.

There was plenty of ex citement—a lot of drama— and, Civil Rights or not, a real Southern affection—for the first President in 100 years from south of the old Mason-and-Dixon — and as for Lady Bird — it was easy to see her as a real old sugah South beauty 20 years ago— and much of it still with her today. Feeling goatish, one young fellow being pushed back from the Presidential route by a patrolman, got a big laugh when he yelled: “1 wouldn’t mind being run over by President Johnson’s car.” If Mr. and Mrs. LBJ could repeat the Raleigh visit enough, they would take the nation by landslide — and may do so anyhow. They have a Spirit, a feeling for People — and that’s what we ain’t nothing else but—that is really heady — and con tagious. FRIEND — A source of news, comment, and friend ship to this column was Dr. Clarence Poe. When its pre decessor, ‘‘Raleigh Roundup” 15 years ago now, our first note of sympathy, etc., came from Dr. Poe. This libel suit (settled out of court for less than $500) came out as he had predicted. We thought he was the greatest Tar Heel living. NEWS — When Richard son Preyer went with North Carolina Bank, it was big news. Preyer and N. C Na tional will mean a lot to each other. But the biggest news story of the year would have oc curred had the announcement said that Preyer was becom ing an executive of another bank — Snow Holding's First Citizens Banks & Trust Co., Smithfield. Get it? HANGOUT — The loss of Warren’s Restaurant here — literally gutted by fire a few days ago — took from the scene a famous old eating place. It never was one of the classier joints. But its steaks and country ham were unsur passed. The old Southern Station used to be on the op posite corner and Warren's was the hangout for drum mers — between trains. But the past two decades have been successful too. Gregg Cherry, as legisla tor, State Legion command er, and on the way up, visited Warren’s a lot. Valuable records of the N. C. Automotive Wholesalers Assn., the N. C. Nurses Reg istry, etc., and IBM equip ment were lost or damaged in the plush offices of the Warren building. TWIST — It was just a year or two ago that a radio station wouldn’t be caught dead advertising for televis ion. But as of this fall one of the big advertisers on the 50,000-watt WPTF (40 years old this year) is WTVD of Durham.

I Every family needs a ready reserve in a savings account for emergencies and buying opportunities. This fund should equal your income for several months in case the breadwinner of the family is unable to work for an extended period of time. With a reserve, there will be money for essentials and other obligations. After you have met your reserve requirements, then you are free to save for luxury buying, for a down payment on a home, and for future security. As you deposit funds in your savings account, your money is earning more money for yon in the form of interest The money you save above your reserve is generally left in your account for long periods of time. If this is the case, then consider a bank savings plan that earns more interest than a regular savings account The bank issues time certificates of deposit which state the amount on deposit in the bank for a specified period of time and the rate of interest to be paid. Certificates of deposit may be made payable to an individual, two people, businesses, organizations, associations, or corporations. These certificates are negotiable which means you may transfer to another person simply by endorsing the certificate. They am acceptable as security for loans and at the same time continue to earn interest. Many parents have found certificates of deposit a very successful way of investing their children’s funds. Generally, certificates for minors are made in the parent’s name as custodian for the child. As a wise and successful saver, consider certifi cates of deposit for savings you do not plan to use for 12 months or longer. This money is immediately available in an emergency, can be used as security for loans, and can be sold or transferred to another person; hence, you have the advantage of savings naming a high rate of interest and at the same time available as collateral and negotiable.

Golden Age Club: The club met as usual in the Methodist Church at 10 o’clock Wednesday with more than 30 people present. The first 30 minutes were spent in greeting old friends and meet ing new ones. Rev. Harold Reeves opened the meeting by leading in group singing. Mrs. Reeves and Miss Ruth Noblitt sang a pretty duet, then Rev. Reeves sang a solo, which was very effective and inspiring. Rev. Reeves in troduced Rev. Jay Katchie, pastor of the Old Fort Pres byterian* Church, who con ducted the devotionals. The club was much pleased! to have Mrs. Teague back with us after being absent for 3 months because of a hip in jury. Mrs. Rena Nobiltt is not at all well, but she was able to attend the meeting. She is always a great help. Mrs. G. B. Strickland and Mrs. An derson are returning to their homes in Eastern Carolina in a few days. Mrs Charles Steppe suggested that the members send a box of cloth ing to the needy in North Wilkesboro in November. Mts. Maude Steppe with several good helpers served the plates. cussing that station in con nection with the growing-up days of his son, Terry. As a boy of four and five i he would hear the call letters, “WPTF, Raleigh”. He no Hnnhf frVmncrht. was iho same as the other. On his first or second day of school his teacher asked if anybody in the room could spell “Raleigh, our state capital”. Little Terry, sure of him self, held up his hand. Asked to spell it out for the class, he said: “W-P-T-F—Raleigh”. GET THEM OUT — We felt that, sooner or later, the effective tiger-in-your tank advertising by Esso would get some kind of comeback from another oil company. Sure enough, passing by a Gulf station the other day we noted this sign: “Stop here and get those tiger hairs cleaned out of vour tank.” JOHNSON MAN — You haven’t seen much about it I in the papers, but one of the North Carolinians closest to President Johnson is David M. McConnell, Belk Stores attorney of Charlotte. A native of South Caro lina, he first went to Wash ington as assistant to Jimmy Byrnes when Byrnes was ir the U. S. Senate. He has been a power in the Demo Icratic Party through high level contacts ever since. Elephantine in appearance with a trigger-sharp mind I McConnell ran for Lt. Gov ernor in 1960, coming in i ; close third behind Hinkle ir a tight race won by Philpott He was later chairman of the I State Board of Elections. NOTHING MUCH — The date of Oct. 12 (Columbu: Day) hardly creates a ripple I in North Carolina. But ii New York City, for example it is one of the biggest holi days. Schools are closei II tightly — and it is one o: the biggest sales days of th< | year. IN DEMAND — One o the after - dinner speaker I most in demand across thi country these days turns ou to be none other than Charlei McCullers, outstanding Ro Itarian and now manager o: the Dunn Chamber of Com merce. He made his repu tation as champ Rotary lead er and speaker during hii I long tenure as the excellen director of the Kinston Cham ber of Commerce. r Jr. Woman’* Club The regular meeting of the Old Fort Jr. Woman’s Club was held October 19 at the Ragle Hotel. The president, Mrs. David Setzer, presided. Members were asked to urge their families and friends to vote for the candidates of their choice in the coming election. Vice-president Ruby Guffey introduced the speak er, Mrs. Bessie Denton, who presented slides and prepared material on Russia and China. Women in these countries are required to engage in the same back-breaking physical labor that we as Americans are accustomed to having our men do. They mix cement, lay blocks, work in the rice fields, clean the streets and many times starve just like the men. Many of the large estates of the Czars have been turned into rest homes and resorts, when party leaders and work ers who exceed their quotas sre given vacations at gov ernment expense. Many of us came away from the meeting even more grate ful that we live in America. Hostesses for the meeting were Joan Faw, and Shirley Anderson. Present for the meeting were Shirley Ander son, Utah Arrington, Joan Faw, Ruth Guffey, Ethel Griffin, Ruby Grant, Bonnie, Setzer, Junlona Miles and Sue; Glovier. Bear Hunter* Meloy Anderson and three sons, David, Marion, and Doug las, and two brothers Thom as and Robert Allison, went bear hunting very early last Monday morning. They took with them a pack of well trained dogs, but for some reason the bear was too smart for the dogs. He stayed in the rough places where the men could not get close enough to shoot him. So the hunters returned home in the evening tired, cold and hungry with no captured bear. On Tues day morning the hunters went back to try their luck again. This time the dogs chased a big bear and the bear came face to face with one of the lunters, who shot at the bear several times but missed ev ery time! Wasn’t that good luck for the bear? But a bunch of hunters came home with disappointment showing | on their faces! Kermit Allison of Mocks ville came up to go bear hunt ing with his father Fonnie Al lison and the Allison boys here. They spent two days in the rough mountain land. It was cold and some snow fell. The bears were there but they managed to stay away from the hunters. Even the dogs gave them a merry chase. One man got close enough to shoot at a beai * but was so excited he shot over the bear several times, then the bear left in a hurry.
