Like John Holden, Monte
Jones led a useful life and
left a loving family to
grieve, but to survive. How
dare you say that the world
would be better off with
fewer Monte Joneses? If
there were mors people
with his helpfbl nature, his
thoughtfulness, his infec

for life, this world would be
a much better place. No,

To The Editor:
Everyone should have
the Martin Luther King
Fever during this month.
But I believe it shouldn't
stop in January but last
year long.
There are many people
who care nothing about
what King did for us. I say
us because we are all in the
world together, whether
you are black, white, Indian
or whatever. Although
there are also some who
don’t think all of us fit in
this big world together and
I can’t understand it be
cause we are here today and
here to stay. I don’t mean
we are going to stay here
forever as individuals but
the different races will be
here.
We all should be trying to
keep the dream alive be
cause we all ought to want
peace and equality to live
our lives to the full extent
among our brethren. I can’t
understand the so-called
Christians who say they
love the Lord but hate me
because I’m black. If you
don’t love me and everybody
else, then you don’t love the
Lord.
A lot of times people say
they don’t like someone and
have never even sat down
and had a conversation
with them. A lot of times
people find out that the
person they thought they
could never like could end
up being the best friend
they could ever have had.
People must treat people
equal and to give people the
benefit of the doubt and not
judge them by the color of
their skin and by what they
have heard.
It is a shame people have
downgraded, MLK, blam
ing him for the welfare sys
tem and anything else that
some black people benefit
from. Some have even tried
to take his doctoral degree

from him when he is lying in
his grave. I could see if it
was a bad part about him
but let the manrestin peace
with a degree. This tells me
that if people are all that
jealous and foolish toward a
dead man, that I am the one
in trouble and not him.
MLK can’t see what they
are doing to him but I can
see what they are doing to
me. This makes me wonder
is this why we face so many
problems today because
these people like the ones
who are picking on a dead
man making it tough on us.
I believe they have the atti
tude that MLK may have
made history but the next
one behind him will not
make it without a struggle.
Well, I plan to keep the
dream alive and I wish oth
ers would also. You can’t do
it, though, if you are not
fixed up. This is 1992 and
Jesus wants you. With this
world in the shape it is in,
everyone ought to want
peace, equality and togeth

Boy Scouts To
Celebrate 82
Active Years
Not many 82-year-old* can boast
of eternal youth. But one senior is as
young today as when it was founded
in 1910.
The Boy Scouts of America cele
brated its 82nd birthday with na
tionwide festivities last week in
Scouting Anniversary Week.
Locally, the Occoneechee Council
conducted mall expos, window dis
plays and banquets throughout its
communities.
A major focus of the week was the
presentation of the BSA’s annual
“Report to the Nation’ to President
Bush and members of Congress.
Both adult and youth members of
Scouting took part in several days of
meetings with federal officials and
military leaders.
“Our 82nd anniversarv is the
perfect time for everyone in the
council area to commemorate the
proud history and benefits of Scout
ing,” said Lee Spence, finance and
marketing director. “Since the Boy
Scouts of America as founded,
Scouting has provided millions of
young people with values and expe
riences needed to meet the chal
lenges of the future.”
The Scouting movement origi
nated in Great Britain in 1907. Two
years later, William Boyce, a Chi
cago publisher traveling in London,
became lost in a London fog. A young
boy offered to help him and led him
to his destination. When Boyce
thanked the boy for his gracious
ness, the boy explained that as a Boy
Scout, it was his duty to help others,
and declined a tip.
Impressed with the boy’s actions,
Boyce met with Britain’s Boy Scout
founder, Robert Baden-Powell, and
laid the groundwork to bring the
Scouting program to the United
States.

looking at old movies of them holding cigarettes so
proudly in their hands but here in the ’90s are no longer
with us.
If there is any one resolution that we could put on the
table in the ’90s, that is to have an almost smoke-free
society.
There will always be the “smokers," but those one
billion people who smoked five trillion cigarettes, and
undoubtedly the figure has risen tremendously since
1986, could be cut drastically and a smoke-fires society
could contribute to a healthier environment as well as a
healthier population. _ _
YOU CAN
Yet,.you can! You can be happy,
you can be successful, you can be
healed. You can be free, you can be
all that was intended for you to be.
Everyone who has contributed
something did so because of his
heart.

NCAE President Says Long School
Day Mistake, Meet Critical Needs
rousing ui'uuemic uLiiieveiueiii
will require more than simply add
ing time to the school day,” says
North Carolina Association of Edu
cators President Rose Marie Lowry,
as she responded to reports tha the
State Board of Education will con
sider mandating a longer school
day.
“We feel that it is a serious mis
take to discuss a longer school day
without discussing measures to
meet the instructional needs of the
current school day,” she said at a
news conference last week.
Lowry cautioned againstignoring
the real problem. “NCAE is not in
favor of a longer school day if this
merely means more time to do the
same things.”
Three key areas linked to im
proved instruction and improved
learning conditions were identified
by Lowry as more important goals
than a longer day. Lowry cited a
comprehensive curriculum, flexible
scheduling, and shared preparation
time for school staffs as critical
needs in the instructional arena.
Lowry’s comments reflect the
urgency educators feel for address
ing many other issues, before con
centrating on a longer school day.

EEO/AA Employer
Lowry cited the need for smaller
classes, for striving to achieve the
six national education goals
adopted by President Bush and the
governors, with special emphasis on
two goals in particular—readiness
for learning and a healthy school
environment. She stressed the need
for up-to-date textbooks for every
student, as well as sufficient in
structional materials and equip
ment. “When you visit a classroom,
just ask how much of what’s in there
was purchased with the teacher’s
personal money,” she suggested.
She also added air conditioning,
teacher access to telephones, and
homework to the areas of critical
need, before entertaining the notion
of adding more time to the instruc
tional day.
Lowry was joined by 1991 state
Teacher of the Year Annie Pegram,
a first-grade teacher in Durham
City, in focusing on the interrup
tions during instructional time that
rob students and teachers of pre
cious minutes per day, hours per
week and weeks per year.
Lowiy stated that NCAE sup
ports and advocates school-based
decision-making. “This practice
should be encouraged,” she said, “to
allow the people working in the
schools and the people supporting
the schools to make the basic deci
sions about how it operates.
“We strongly recommend that, at
this time, attention be directed at
what’s included now in the class
room day that interferes with the
best use of instructional time,”
Lowry concluded.
