Jerry, a fabulous song writer The other night I was talking to a friend in Nashville. Jerry Foster is a fabulous song writer. He's writ- ten hits for just about any big name you can think of in country music. Jerry was on the road when I was. He was also doing rock-a-bil- ly music. We both played at the Bambo Ranch in Savannah. Billy Joe Royal and Joe South also played there. We got to swapping stories from the fifties. That's where are hearts are anyway. After I hung up the phone, I lay back on the bed half drunk on nostalgia. My mind got up and looked through the gates of tomorrow. I couldn't see any satis- faction as it peeped around the cor- ner. Back it came, rested for a mo- ment, then tore out and climbed to the top of the mountains of truth that lie just inside the outskirts of yesterday. From its lofty perch it stared across the barren fields of yesteryear, They were littered with broken promises and lines. A land- fill full of heartaches and sorrow. 7 Now and then a good dream would materialize. Then it would quickly fade like an echo from the distant past. Ideals lay buried, a headstone the only hint they ever existed. : As the journey continued, a shroud of a fog-like substance be- gan 10 envelope everything. Then on tne other side of somewhere, a faint sound of music came drifting through the mystic haze. Soon it drove the mist away. Hope re- placed doubt. The future looked pretty good. The fifties came roaring in bring new music, romance and fun. Even the fall wasn't quite as bad. Like the man said, "Nothing is born to Warlick completes CIC John Warlick, president of Warlick & Hamrick Associates of Kings Mountain, has successfully completed the annual continuing education requirement of the Society of Certified Insurance Counselors in Austin, Texas. In order to earn the designation CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor), each individual must have attended five institutes cover- ing all phases of the insurance business and passed five rigorous examinations. Additionaily, the ‘National Society requires annual attendance in the program to main- tain the designation. Warlick, a 36-year veteran of the industry, has been a CIC since 1985. Warlick said he believes in- surance consumers are best served by those who acquire and maintain a high level of professional excel- lence by meeting the continuing education requirements of the CIC program.

Cost of the class is $30 Per person. 2 SAR live forever." Too soon the fifties slipped away and reality took their place. Those of us who were teen- agers through the fifties will hold a fond memory of those days. They bring back both good and sad rec- ollections. Most of us will see them more like we wanted to than they really were. I still have the faith in the music. I know the fall will come. I may not be here to see it, but that won't stop it. I still can't figure out how the seasons know when to change their clothes. To all of you who love the fall, take heart. It won't be long til you hear that big explosion of orange and yellow. It will rip the leaves from the trees, leaving them to face winter naked. It will take away the butterflys, flowers and lazy shady summer afternoon. It will destroy everything spring worked so hard to create. It will drive away sum- mer, sending it wherever summer goes. I'll be waiting for spring to get back from vacation.
