The Kings Mountain Herald
. Still's paintings
to be unveiled
Florida artist Christopher
Still, son of Dr. and Mrs. John
Still of Kings Mountain, has
been busy.
He was commissioned by the
family of Florida Governor
Lawton Chiles and the Florida
Legislature to paint the official
portrait of Chiles that will hang ¢
in Tallahassee with the portraits
of all the state's other past gov-
ernors. Chiles will unveil the
portrait on December 3. ;
The City Council of St.
Petersburg awarded Still
$50,000 to paint two 10 foot talk-
murals for the city hall and the
murals will be unveiled also in
. December.
Still was featured in a recent
feature page cover story by
Jacquin Sanders in Times
Floridian. The article was enti-
tled, "Brushes of Greatness" and
included color pictures of
Christopher Still's private col-
lection "Changing Tides" and a
picture of Still painting Stevey,
a pelican which recovered from
severe injuries caused by a
wrathful fisherman but remains
blind.
Both pictures that will hang
in the city hall show boats, fish-
ermen, families and scenes from
life.
"I wanted to paint Florida,"
he says."That's one good reason
I'm an artist."
Filing for five seats up for
grabs on the county board of
commissioners begins at noon

The U. S. Justice Department
Wednesday morning gave ap-
proval of the election schedule.
The primary for commission-
ers is November 3. A second
primary, if needed, will be held
December 1. The general elec-
tion for county commissioners
is January 12, 1999.
Under an order signed by U.
S. District Judge Stanley
Sporkin both parties will hold
primaries November 3
The Democrats held a prima-
ry in May because six candi-
dates filed to run. If they all re-
file, they will be joined by
incumbent Willie McIntosh,
who must also stand for reelec-
tion under Sporkin's order.
The Republicans did not have
a primary in May because only
five candidates filed to run. All
candidates must refile.
Sporkin ruled recently during
a hearing in Washington, DC
that the two candidates receiv-
PICTURE PERFECT - Nothing was stirring on the blue waters of Moss Lake Tuesday afternoon
as apparently everyone was inside or working. Even though fall is approaching, citizens still enjoy
weekend boating and picnics at the lake.
Justice Department okays election
ing the most votes in the gener-
al election would serve four
year terms, the next three
would receive two year terms
and thereafter everyone would
serve four years to return to the
stagger that would have been in
effect if a consent decree had
never been entered into by the
county and the NAACP.
Sporkin ordered that details
of an election schedule be
worked out and submitted to
him by Cleveland County, the
Cleveland County Association
for Government by the People
and the NAACP.
The county entered into an
agreement with the NAACP
that expanded the county board
of commissioners from five to
seven members and appointed
two minority members. CCAGP
sued and a federal appeals
court ruled in their favor, say-
ing the commission did not
have the authority to change its
makeup.

Just thought of us that day.
Whatever you did to console our hearts.
We thank you so much whatever the part.
