N. C. before the Revolutionary war when Subscription Rates: One Year S2.; Six Months SI: Three Months 60c.’ everybody was underprivileged, there were only three freedoms. No. 7 Everybody had a right to work hard, save as much as he could of ; his earnings and use his head as ! ! profitably as possible in business. If I ! you have a taste for long words you might call the three freedoms 'in dustry, frugality and ingenuity. Politics in those days were all full of rich-man vs. poor-man problems, same as now. They were, to be sure, better decorated with pretty English but the issues were about the same: What will we have to work with? If we do well, how much can we keep, and how much will be taken by the government? Government in those days was the English king, of course. Lovers of Freedom People who thought the king ought to show more liberality called them selves liberals. In theory the king owned the land. In reality he held a tight rein over his subjects. He taxed them plenty and his subsidized buying concern paid little enough for what they produced. A liberal, in those days, was a man who want ed government to loosen up a bit in favor of the individual. Affairs of the people were not changed very much by the Revolu tion. Colonies changed into states and new issues atose but still there was an over-all government. In this over-all government were people who had power-lust, or else feared to trust the common people with vital decisions. Opposed to these power-hungry folk were the liberals, still plugging for personal liberty. Liberals Won Out The liberals were right. Time has proved beyond a doubt that people act better and live better and make more progress materially and spir itually when they have more free dom. Since the United States be came a first-class power in record time, the world’s wealthiest and happiest people, the word “liberal” has been popular here. A liberal, to us, is one who wants the individu al to l}e free. Through the same historic peri ods America has had reactionaries.

This year he brought down his family and his daughter, Josie, adds to the school enrollment. She is in the ninth grade and a mighty fine girl. The church and its trustees have bought land from Mrs. Del- Ion Mason Copeland, between Le na Hooper’s and Ada Hooper’s homes. The parsonage is no,w in the process of being moved. John Ferebee of Manteo is doing the moving job. The new location is more centrally located. The village has acquired some new inhabitants. Many of our girls and boys have married since the war began, and quite a few of the newcomers are set tling here. Henry Twiford’s dau ghter Grace and her husband, Golden, Who is a retired Coast Guard chief, have come here to live. Joyce Meekins’ husband, Malcolm Bobbitt, will be another new inhabitant when the Coast Guard turns him loose. Robert Weehter will soon be retired from the Coast Guard and he will settle here with his family. Harold Wise who has been in the Coast Guard for several years is now out on an honorable dis charge. He and his wife are plan ning to build a home here in the near future. 'D. L. Meekins has reopened his store and he is doiiig a good business. Mack Brinn has leased the Standard station familiar to the village as the Susie Q., and he is certainly making good on ga'SoHne sales, sandwiches of all kinds, and a newly-added soda fountain. There is talk of a movie theatre to be built, also a bowling alley. These will certainly add to the life and amusement of the com munity when these projects are completed. * The local folks are taking more pride in the' cemetery. Recently the village has been canvassed for donations for improvements to that particular hallowed spot. There have been an increasing number of social functions in the village as more people have moved home. They have, partic ularly the womenfolk, organiz- their unday School classes and each class has a definite assign ment toward betterment of the church and improvement in the community in general. There is more of the old time "getting together and visiting your neigh bors” than I can remember for I many years past. I The school is an inteesting I place this year. Mrs. Florine ; Hooper is oiperating a lunch j room. The menus are wonderful- ; ly well .balanced, nutritious j meals. The patrons of the school i and the teachers have organized j a livenwire P.T.A. At the last I meeting the Membership Chair- I man reported 50 paid up mem- j bers with many more prospective ones in view. ! The village is a far cry from ' what it was during WIPA days. There is a new zest evident all around and in everybody. Give it time and I am sure Stumpy Point will emerge as one of the nicest communities in the state. It is definitely out of the cater pillar stage of development and ^ one of the days not too far off I there will emerge a beautiful i butterfly, anjl the inhabitants of I the village will all have had a I hand in producing its vivid color- I ing, pleasing both their eyes and i the eyes of strangers who will i come to view It.

I 'For the 1945 crop season, grow- j er’s maximum prices of 28 cents a ; pound for orchard-run improved I pecans and 21 cents for seedlings ; will be established at the point of shipment.

B.YUM FINALLY HAS GRANDSON actionaries have always been un popular in America, people who howl against the system and try to grab power for themselves. Try to Swap Labels Reactionaries in America today Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Hooper vis-1 .. I lesson well. They are very sure of one thing: they have a bad name. They know also that the word “lib eral” is an asset. Accordingly they have adopted the term “liberalism” and call themselves liberals. This is the very same political element that supports more government rules and less liberty for individuals. By the same ^rategy, this poUt- ical element has begun to call peo ple reactionaries who hold precise ly to the liberal teachings of Thom as Jefferson. Don’t let anybody tell you that government control of ev erything, and the destruction of in dividual freedom and opportunity, is the liberalism that Americans think so highly of—nor that it Is liberal ism at all. It is a coimterfeit road sign designed to misdirect Ameri can thinking away from the ways of freedom. WILL YOUR SON SAY THIS? 'David Meekins, Elmer and 'Ro ger Best spent the weekend in Norfolk.
