Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1952-10-29

Last Thursdays planned public working of the area
designed to become playground for all ages in the Tabor
CITY area turned out to be just spark of fire where
great flame should have been.
The public invited to out with rake, noe ana
swing blade to help clear the weeds and bushes from the
ground But the public mighty small just four peo-
pie other than the Tabor City town crew as matter OF
fact.
Yet those four worked through the entire afternoon
and succeeded in making the look like some one was
interested in the project But is with sense OF tutlty
that keep plugging for something that could be so
good for many.
There are those local people who will say We gave
them such and such amount as donation so don't
have to help do any work" The truth of the matter is
that not man was present who wouldn't have gladly
given few dollars instead of the work On top OF that
it takes some money and work from those who are
willing to lend hand.
But at any rate, progress was made The TABOR
City town workmen did excellent job and Sam jack
son and his agriculture classes have helped immensely
The park the way and before many moons there viii
be enough progress made that the will be available
for any and all.
But if another working is necessary, won't you try
to help little?

Minute Sermon

There is an old story about
Greek NEUROLOGICAL here VINO re-
ceived his strength from the
ground. AS long as his feet were
on the ground power flowed INTO
his muscles. When he mounted
horse he became weak. Such
legendary tale may serve to Illus
trate spiritual truth: When we
are riding high on a high-horse we
are heading for a fall. When we
are well-grounded on eternal
truths we are spiritually strong.
Jesus said: Everyone therefore
that heareth these words OF mine,
and doeth them, shall be likened
unto a wise man, who built his
house upon a rock: and the rain
descended, and the floods came,
and the winds blew, and beat up
on that house, and it fell not, for
it was founded upon a rock"
(Matt. 7-24. PSI
Our spiritual strength comes
from contact with Christ by faith.
AS we trust Him for grace, commit
our ways into His hands, and
humbly strive to do His will, we
are strong Christians. When we
get far away from Him we are
are far away from the source of
our spiritual strength. abide in
me, and I in you. AS the branch
cannot bear fruit of itself, except
it abide in the vine; so neither can
We, except We abide in me-" John

THEY COULD SPARE TINE

One of the most frequent given by lot OF our
fine people for taking greater part in civic activities
such as the Yam Festival that they cannot get away
from their businesses
Thus we would like to stop here moment to comment
on Mr. and Mrs S. T. Rogers who did fine job during the
festival Now Mr. and Mrs Rogers operate two stores
and they undoubtedly needed the operation of those
businesses just badly and Yet for several days
preceding the Festival they worked long and hard IN
the warehouse getting it ready for opening day.
They showed genuine civic spirit in the event. the kind
that more people need during this big project and the
many others that confront throughout the year.

THE NEW 23RD PSALM

The Government is my shepherd; snail not work

It prepareth an Economic Utopia for by appropria
ting the earnings of my grandchildren.
Surely the Government will care for me all the days OF
INV life and shall dwell in Fools Paradise forever

CARRIERS COLUMN
By w. Horace Carter

Mrs. Bob White certainly de-
serves a pat on the back for her
efforts on behalf of the play
ground project last week. Mrs.
White told the committee several
DAYS ago that she would be re-
sponsible for seeking donations
for the project on Railroad street
but that her baby would have to
take part too.
And so last week, Mrs. White
dressed up the baby, pulled out
the stroller and down the street
she went from store to store. She
had to take part of several days
in order to catch everyone but
the youngster didn't seem to mind
at all and kept right on enjoying
the ride while Mrs. White pushed
him along.
Like she said, apparently the
youngster was the only one en-
joying the job, but he was having
the time of his life and wondering
why all the sudden attention that
Mommy was giving him. But per-
haps the lottle tot was helping
out. At any rate, Mrs. White met
with right good results.
One of the biggest needs at the
playground is fence along high
way 7O1 and down the PireWay
road for about 100 feet. With
a good barrier along these sides
of the area, small children would
not likely get into the highway
and become endangered by the
traffic. The parking lot is going
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1952-10-29

to be on the Pireway road be-
tween the highway and the side
walk and the parks entrance IS
planned for that position. This
should make for safety and that
is ultra important in project OF
this type.
If some civic club could see Its
way clear to take this fence build
ing project and carry it through
as a separate operation it would
be of tremendous help to the
playground project. 1t would cost
little money and considerable
effort but it's erection would be
a safety measure we'll worth the
trouble.
