Piedmont, North Carolina and Tidewater are com panies that are already, or soon will be, serving most of the major communities in this State with natural gas, via pipe line from Texas. Other evidence of the “better living” concept to be found in North Carolina is the enlightened approach to the “legal control” system for the sale of beer and ale that has already proven its merits in the best interests of temperance and moderation.

I was amazed at the number of boys and girls signing in, numbering around 90, with a good number from Manteo and Stumpy Point. It was truly a heart-warming affair to see the nice clean-cut faces of the youth and teenagers of this community glowing with happiness, flushed with the joy of good clean fun, good fellowship and sportsmanship. Os course there are some very good rules which are strictly enforced by the chaperones, who are members of the Woman’s Club and parents of the children. Mrs. Pearl Daniels, Mrs. Donald Green and Miss Inez Gibbs were chaperones for the eve ning, others who dropped in for a few minutes and stayed were: Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Twiford, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Gard; Mrs. Nor man Craddock, Mr. and Mrs. Har ry Mann, Mrs. Stanley Bratten, Mrs. Marvin Bratten, Donald Green; and several guests from Manteo. They were impressed with what the Center has to offer and think it not only wonderful for the kids, but great fun for the adults too. Believe me, an eve ning spent at the Center will be one to remember, for there’s never a dull moment. By the way, all of the youth and teenagers are in vited—and grow-n-ups too—come on out and help entertain the kids! They’ll love you for it. Saturday. February 14th, Mrs. Wallace Taylor will lead the fun, with a Valentine dance. Until then—This is “Our Center.” We “make it spin.” Just open the door and come in.
