Margaret Ramsey (Your Pharmacists) Easter about-face Easter may be the opportunity to re-direct your way of life. The story is told of two young men who left town together on a business trip. The passenger dozed off only to awaken later to the astonishment that they were headed in the wrong direction. “We’re going the wrong way," shouts he! "I know.” said the driver, “but we’re making such good time I hate to turn around.” Is your life like that? 'The Lord Jesus Christ died and rose from the grave Easter morning to turn your life and mine around. Won't you let him? Harper’s Prescription Pharmacy 709 W.

She also pointed out that TWK is leasing the property, not buying it, and that if the mobile home sales business does not prosper, and the property is rezoned business, “Charlie Clark will be able to put anything he wants to in there.” Kelso told the board TWK planned to handle only new mobile homes, and planned to clean up the property. “We don’t plan to put junky trailers out there. The property will look real nice,” he said. Kelso pointed out that “there are businesses all around” but Mrs. Morris explained that most of the businesses, like Cash Grocery and Ware’s Orchard, were in operation before the area was taken into the one-mile perimeter and are legal under the ‘Grandfather Clause.” Junior High Ladies Win Kings Mountain Junior High’s girls softball team won its fourth straight game Tuesday at Shelby, 7-3. Dana Blalock hurled the win with relief help in the last two in nings from Leslie Sellers. Leigh Ann Odell led the KM hitting with 3-for4, including a home run. Spring Young, Melin da Roberts and Joanna Boheler had two hits each and Roberts hit a towering home run onto the roof of the Shelby gym. ‘Gur defense played well ex cept for making two errors that led to all three Shelby runs in the sixth inning,” Coach Candy Albergine said. The Lady Pats were scheduled to host East McDowell, also 4-0, Wednesday afternoon. Golfers Second Kings Mountain High’s golf team finished second to East Rutherford in a three-team Southwestern 3-A Conference match Tuesday at Kings Moun tain Country Club.
