ton to Mr.. Lee for joining in the
progressive movement in Tabor City.
We are happy to have this big step
forward in our business district and
wish for him continued success in the
business life of our community.
There are scarcely any years that
pass that something new and modern
isn't accomplished in Tabor City. This
fine building alone makes 1855 stand
out as successful, and we have every
reason to believe that still other pro-
gressive steps will be made by bust
ness firms during 1856.

A Community Asset

With the virtual completion of the
new Lees store in Tabor City, every
civic minded local person can stick
his chest out with pride. This new
structure is among the two or three
finest business buildings in the entire
section Of the State and it certainly
ranks number one in Tabor City. In
the county it is near number one also.
The community as a whole is proud
of this fine business building and a
stranger in our town cannot help but
notice the modernistic aspect of our
main street.
We want to express our apprecia-

Such Acts Make Progress Possible

do you want barbecue plate?"
asked Jaycee as the youngster walk
ed into Fowler's Pool Room last week
during the barbecue supper sale.
Nav, all l want is a hot dog"
retorted the youngster.
yeah, let me make one sale to-
day." laughed G.. NJ. Fowler who had
turned his place of business over to
the Jaycee money-raising project.
Fowler's unselfish act went beyond
that of permitting the Jaycees to use
his place of business. His efforts in
preparing the barbecue were greatly
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1955-12-21

responsible for the success of the
program.
1t isn't unusual to find a local mer-
chant who gives his approval for a
local club to sell a product that
completes with one in his store; how
ever, most merchants have variety
of products to offset drop in sales
of one particular item.
The prominent aspect of Fowler's
act was his active participation in a
project that doomed his entire sales
for that day.
It's the sort of thing that makes
progress possible in a small town.

BAPTIsTs GROW EN- MAN SIZE

1t crossed my mind the other day as talked with
the Rev. H. E. King, pastor of the Mount Olive Baptist
Church, that the Baptss really grow 'em man size.
6'3" tall and probably tips the scales around the 200
mark but of the Rev. P. c. Can't of Tabor City and
the Rev. Morgan Gilreath of Green Sea. The latter
two are over Ga" in height and aren't bit on the
undernourished side
Most peculiar about the threesome is the fact that
Zach is one of the most hkeabe parsons you'll ever
meet
Course, I might well lay it on the line, I'm
better acquainted with the Rev. Can't and have a
great deal of admiration for him. Every time look
at the new sanctuary and the other units in the recent
ly completed Tabor City Baptist Church building

LUNCH ROOM PROBLEMS ARE YOURS

If you're giving lip service to the free lunch pro-
gram and can't understand why free lunches aren't
available for every needy child, you would be better
off examining your own responsibility.
The lunch room is a major headache and there
isn't any feasible way for enough money to be made
- offset the expense of feeding every needy child
There is way for the free lunch program to be
a success but you must have part in it.
If you're sincere in wanting every child to have
free lunches quit giving lip service and start being
a little more charitable.
A dollar will feed underprvileged youngster
for entire week.

SOME DRUG STORES HAVE A MONOPOLY

I dislike spending my money in any town other
than Tabor City but recently found myself in position
where had to buy medicinal supplies in Conway.
The wife's doctor in Conway wrote the prescription
and told her she had best have it filled at Conway
drug store since they probably wouldn't have it in
Tabor City.
/ learned the hard way (wife did without the
blasted pills for several weeks) that the doctor had
written prescription for special pills prepared only
Nv the particular Conway drug store The pill
could be prepared by any druggist upon being told
the ingredients but such telling not in the books
When the Tribune starts getting advertising from
Conway drug stores then won't mind spending my
money with them. AS it is Harrelsons Pharmacy and
Cameron Drug Store the only two who contribute
to the advertising program which is the only thing
that makes the paper and my job possible. prefer
that pleasure my illness be restricted to local
pharmacists.
