The North Carolina Lions Foundation, Inc. is a non- profit organization, organiz- ed in 1934 to establish a State Agency for the Blind that would administer all Federal and State programs relating to blind and visually han- dicapped citizens. Since this action was accomplished in 1935, the North Carolina Lions Foundation, Inc. has continued to support and cooperate with the State Agency. In 1966, a central office was established in Raleigh to ad- minister and coordinate all services supported by the Foundation for the Blind and visually handicapped. One of the services supported is the North Carolina Eye and Human Tissue Bank, located in Winston Salem. This ‘organization serves as a clearing house for all Eye Wills and requests for eyes, as well as other human organs. Over 250,000 Eye ~ Wills are on file. ’ Camp Dogwood is a camp and vacation spot for the blind and visually handicap- ped people of North Carolina, located on the shores of Lake Norman in Catawba County. The facility, representing an investment in excess of one million dollars, provided camping opportunities this year for more than 600 blind and visually handicapped people. The main support for this project is provided by the North Carolina Lions Foun- dation, Inc. A Scholarship Program sponsored by the Foundation for children of blind parents is currently providing assistance to 40 youths in North Carolina Universities, colleges and technical schools. ‘Radios and white canes are provided by the Foundation for any blind person in need of one.

Phil Waugh, pastor of Grover’s First Baptist Church, as ‘Johnny Ap- pleseed”’, delighted students in Mrs. Tommy Keeter’s and Miss Jackie Blanton’s Grover classrooms Friday as the Social Studies classes celebrated the 212th birthday of Johnny Appleseed. Waugh dressed as Ap- pleseed and told the students that because of ‘his dedica- tion and faith and hard work Johnny Appleseed planted millions of apple seeds from Massachusetts to the Ohio Valley. He planted seeds that others might enjoy.” A table of delivious apple treats were also served dur- ing the day, compliments of parents of students. Students also recited poems and sang apple songs and apple art ac- tivities were enjoyed such as apple weaving and stuffed hanging apples. “Johnny Appleseed’ arriv- ed unannounced in his tat- tered clothes with his usual tin pot on his head. The children were spellbound as Johnny told them the story of his life. Creative writing placed on the bulletin board included such topics as “If I Were An Apple’; “How To Make An Apple Pie”. A classroom ap- ple shaped book was filled with individual stories of Johnny Appleseed. First grader Angh rad Glidden gave this recip : for apple pie. ‘Place 10 cut up apples in a pie crust. Add a mixture of one cup of cin- namon and one cup of sugar JOHNNY APPLESEED ...Rev. Phil Waugh and pour into crust. Bake in oven for five minutes.” First grader Brandon Bolin’s recipe for apple“pie follows: ‘Mix three cut up apples, two cherries, 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 stick of but- ter and pour into a pie crust. Bake for 3 minutes.” First grader Brian Cannon wrote: “If I were an apple I would be hanging on a tree. Being an apple I would not be able to read. Swinging on the tree is fun.” Second grader Brett Wells wrote: “If I were an apple, I would hang around on the tree. Being a red apple, I am beautiful. My home is on a limb. At night my friends and I see the moon. We have fun talking to each other.” Second grader Yara Langston wrote: “If I were an apple, I wouldn’t go to school. A bad thing about be- ing an apple is you don’t get to read. One good thing is you get to look around at the sky. t would be fun to swing in a tree.
