PAGE 4, KINGS MOUNTAIN MIRROR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1972 ^0^ ^1^ Women^s Editor..S)ivia Holmes July has come and gone very quickly. Maybe this particu lar month of the year seems short because many times a vacation Is taken during that time. Mothers with small children often wonder If a vacation Is worthwhile. There Is so much preparation to be done before hand that everyone wonders If It’s really worth all the ef fort that Is needed to prepare for leaving home, A lew days at the beach Is usually all that Is needed to convince the fam ily that vacations are enjoy able, but many times the chore of packing becomes very we arisome when babies and toddlers are Involved. Not only does a family have to pre pare for a holi^y but tl'^ey must also prepare their home so that it can be left unattended for a period of days or weeks. This means that everyone has to work extra hard doing yard and house chores as well as holiday packing and prepara tions. Halfway to the beach some one suddenly remembers that they forgot to cut off some thing such as the water or gas. Or someone else has the nag ging feeling that the backdoor was left unlocked. These thoughts and feelings never occur within several blocks of home or before the car has left the city limits. But once a palm tree has been sighted or the Mason-Dlxon line has been crossed, then one can be sure that all those disturbing thoughts will be automatically be triggered in the minds of the adults. The younger members of the family usually concern them selves solely with the welfare of pets left behind in the care of friends and neighbors or boarded out at the kennels. If you are an inveterate list- maker, like myself, you will undoubtedly make a detailed list of things to be done before leaving on vacation and then you will dutifully check them off, one by one, before leaving home. List-makers must rely on remembering to Include ev erything on the list. I forgot one item on my list. As a result of this, I left my bag of clothes pins hanging out on the line in the back yard. Upon returning from vacation I went out to hang something on my washing line and dis covered that my entire supply of clothespins had disappear ed into thin air. There was a hole in the bag and I decided that the fabric had fimlly rot ted due to constant exposure to sun, rain and wind and that all my clothespins must have fallen out. Finding three clothespins In the grass veri fied my theory, but I was still missing about three dozen wooden clothespins and I de cided that the local dogs must be using them as substitute bones. On my next trip to town I bought a new bag and a good supply of contents. Several days later, I was working In the yard trimming long grass around two dog wood trees when suddenly I saw that the trees had brought forth strange fruit. There were all my old clothes pins hanging from twigs and leav es, here and there, and they looked so natural that not one of the family discovered them when I sent them out to play hunt the clothespins! S.H. * t Jody Ham and Roxanne Yarbro, two Cadette Girl Scouts were recently honored at G.dden Valley where they were presented with 1st Class pins. This is the highest award that can be ach ieved by Girl Scouts.

CARD OF THANKS I would like to thank every one for their kind expressions of sympathy during the death of my brother, Harold George. John George, Jr. Students Impressed By Alaska ? Canada By Sylvia Holmes Returning to Kings Mountain on July 20th were twenty stu dents and six adult chaperones who had spent four weeks and four days touring through Canada and Alaska. They had left Kings Mountain on June 18th. Organizer of the trip was W.F. Young of Kings Mountain High School and the other ad ults on the trip were Mrs. Young, Mr. and Mrs. George Lindsay, Mrs. A.M. Kiser and Dennis Stroupe. This is the third year that Mr. Young has organized such a trip and the activity bus cov ered more than 10,000 miles of highway and also many miles by ferry in Alaska. Most of the twenty students were experiencing this kind of trip for the very first time. Don Ledford and Mr. Young’s sons, Bill and Wesley were the only students to have par ticipated in all three succes sive yearly trips. Becky Scruggs of Grover was making her second trip and when asked about her impres sions she said that she had been amazed at the beauty of the scenery as the bus travel ed through Canada towards Alaska. Everything was so clean and so clear, virtually unpolluted. The ferry trips in Alaska had also provided w J some magnificent views - views that were untouched by civilization, all natural beauty devoid of manmade buildings or constructions. The Alcan highway Itself was a stretch of dirt road over 1,000 miles in length. Becky recalled the bears that were attracted to their camp site by the cooking odors at suppertime, but the mere sight of humans or a human noise was sufficient to scare them away again. When asked if any thing un usual had happened on the trip, Becky said that many students lost their high school rings. Don Ledford lost his when the group stopped to play in snow in the Rocldes. The bus went back thirty miles after Don discovered his loss and to ev eryone’s amazement his ring was still laying on top of the snow waiting to be found again by its owner. The whole group are sure to have lots of wonderful mem ories after such a great trip. I wonder what’s in the plan ning for next year? MRS.
