Il Also Pays To Listen

Wisconsin and other states in the Mid
die Atlantic area. Here in Columbus
County it is possible to have II months
grazing, making dairying a rather
simple operation. Why haven't we don
something about it in the past? Prob
ably the reason is found in the goldcr
leaf Tobacco has been a big monet
crop. It'll continue to return Il ma ior'
part of our income. But it will no.
return as much as it has in the past.
When we face up to that fact we'll
begin to see the Importance of plant
ing other crops.
We have screamed for a market for
truck crops. Now we've got market.
The problem comes home to us and
we must face up to it. We wanted a
chance to turn our idle land into a pay
ing proposition. Now we have it in
truck crops. If we fail to take adj
vantage of it no one is to blame but
ourselves. Let's not stick our head in
the sand and run away from an oppor-
tunity to benefit by the things that
are ours only for the asking.
To be better off, we must be smart
er. And to be smarter we must be
willing to listen to those who have the
answer.
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1955-01-05

The Importance of turning more
attention to truck crops was empha-
sized again last week when the an
nouncement came that the Columbus
County leaf acreage had been reduced
by five percent for next year.
The sale of tobacco to cigarette
manufacturers fell off six percent this
year because of the cancer scare and
this tobacco industry fight isn't COM
pleted. There may be additional drops
in the sale of the leaf to cigarette
makers. In such case farmers can
expect additional reductions in tobac-
CO acreage. That means less money
in the pockets of those who depend
upon tobacco for living.
What is the answer?
More crops adapted to this section
of North and South Carolina. Sweet
potatoes, peppers and a half-dozen
other small crops that require no more
work than tobacco and come through
out the year to provide better year
round income.
Dairying has place in this section
of ours. Presently, milk must be
shipped into Columbus County. That
milk you drink each day comes from

most as fast as the second hand
on the clock makes its way n
round the face of the time piece.
But it isn't new. Things have
been happening in a similar pat
tern for long time
Richard Gordon has accepted
the craftsmanship of the March
of Dimes drive in Tabor. No i'm
mediate plans. according to Cor
don. but he would appreciate IL
if people in TIC would give him
q hand in raising the quota when
all the machinery is set up.
This March of Dimes business
is really close TO our heart be-
cause we've seen these little fell
lows suffer from polio. It win
break your heart. And the very
thought of any child with polio
going without sufficient treat
ment because we didn't give our
dimes would just about be the
worst thing that could happen.
We know there are a Lot Of
drives for funds. You probably
have become disguised on many
occasions at SO many campaigns.
But for the sake of the children,
the people who'll run Tabor
City in the future, don't dry up
on the financial log when 1t
comes to the March Of Dimes.
Elsewhere in the Tribune to-
day you'll find a letter from
Claude Boyd relative to the fine
work the Volunteer Eiremen did
In fighting the blaze that dam
aged the Strickland Super Mar
ket.
We like to see citizens who re-
member to toss out a few roses
TO deserving people before it's
time to put them on the covered
grave. A dead one has no way
of enjoying the beautiful flow
ers-those who deserve them
and are still with us, do.
With all this big bond issue
coming up in Columbus County,
the Tabor City schools should
benefit greatly. OF course, the
loss of the Tabor City school be-
cause of fire helped to speed
things up so far as the bond is
sue was concerned, and we sup
pose that the first money avail
able will be applied to the con-
tract to be let to rebuilding the
burned structure.
Then again, TIC was already
in need of additional buildings
before the old one burned. Con-
tract should be near 100000 or
better.
Attention fathers: Mailmen re-
port big loads of bills headed
your way. You'll pay for that
big Christmas you had.

So This Is New York ''"''''''.'s

No fatal accidents; no one
short; no one cut by stray swift
ch-blade knives; no one beaten
half to death by a drunk; no one
injured in a home or farm &C
cidents.
Good record. In fact it has no
scars on ii and it belongs to
Tabor City over the holiday sea-
son.
That report Chief H. E. Epps
gave today with a feeling OF
pride. He was proud, not for
what he had done to help create
such a situation, but for Tabor
City people. It is an unusual re-
cord when you consider at
Christmastime the children be-
gan skating, riding their bikes
for the first time, using fire
crackers, dancing around the
open fire in pajamas, connecting
electric trains and putting the
new skill saws to test.
Add those things to the fact
that many families are on the
road in their automobiles max
ing visits to friends or relatives.
And then you stack a perfect
record such as Tabor City and
you've got something to be
proud Of We doubt seriously If
there is another town in North
Carolina the same size with such
a record.
Christmas decorations along
Tabor's streets were hauled
down Monday morning. It's al
ways a sad sight for us to see
all the colored lights and Santa
Claus figures come from their
places and head for the storage
bin.
1t means that once again we
have officially closed the holiday
season. It brings on lot of
work over the next three months
when we attempt to come out
from under Winter and into a
new season called Spring.
But it means a lot of other
things, too. Farmers begin TO
think seriously of their crops
and land that hasn't known the
feel Of a plough for several
months once again finds the
farmer at work either with his
tractor or mule. Tobacco beds
are prepared. People start talk
ing about the price of the leaf
on the next market and the
children in school get down to
the real business of finding the
answers to all the questions they
are sure to run into on mid-term
and final exams.
It's the changing of the times.
Like starting all over again. Re-
solutions go out the windows al

BY NORTH CALLAHAN

Ter, less thrilling to our ever
more mature minds. Childhood
Christmas was the happy morn
ing Of our lives. The noon and
evening naturally hold less
cheerfulness. Folks here from
New England, the South, the
Middle and Far West all have
tears in their eyes once in a.
while when they think of home.
And nothing brings home closer
to them than the merry, mellow
golden days of Christmas.
OF all the Christmas cards
that I receive. the ones that
touch me the most are those
with rural scenes, with snow
clad hills dotted here and there
with cedar trees, a sled being
drawn over the soft-white trails,
a lighted church. a Yule log be-
ing pulled right into the glad
some, cherry-red fireplace where
the family all gather in that
most wonderful place on earth,
their own dear home. On the
towers of Manhattan are grand,
Times Square is a man-made
miracle. and the splendid decor
tons Of Rockefeller Center are
a marvel to behold. AS for me,
I look at them and think Of that
coy little home in Fork Creek,
with Papa and Mama lighting
the rough little Christmas tree
after all the other many chores
of the day were done.
And yet. Christmas l guess is
mostly in the heart. We can't
expect to stay boys and girls
forever. or else there would be
no other boys and girls to take
our place. Whether we are the
children themselves or the faith
ers and mothers of them, this
holy holiday has its proper
place. Blessed are we whose
sons and daughters sing in the
church choirs instead of flirt
closely with death up the long
fast roads in a hot rod spurred
on all too much with alcohol
The Christ child was and is a
friend of us all, and evidently
he watches over many a foolish
human who otherwise would
have short span on this tum-
ultous earth. Fork Creek or New
York - Christmas really means
the same thing, within ourselves.
One thing about it is sure: it is
IN most ways our most joyful
time. So let me sincerely wish
all you good readers, the Mcrri-
est Christmas you have ever
had.

Editorials .

AS we enter the New Year it be-
hooves all of us to consider the steps
we plan to take in 1855.
Naturally, we can't probe into the
future like fortune teller and deter
mine all the right and wrong moves
that are hidden in the days ahead.
But we can, and we owe it to ourselves
and to our community, to face the prob
lens that will confront us with an
open mind.
The best we can do as individuals
does not exceed the obligation we have
to the community in which we live.
The place we call home is no better
than we make it. 1t reflects only what
we will permit it to, and if there are
disappointments then it probably is
because we have failed to plan or to
take advantage of the opportunities.
Never has a New Year arrived
without challenge. There are al
ways problems to solve and situa-
tons that test our best facilities
But without a challenge life in
most part would become a bore
We can not afford to reach the stage
where desire for finer things plays
no part in our thinking and actions.
There must always be goal yet to
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1955-01-05
Busy People Are Needed

attain if progress is to be had in our
community, in our state and in our
nation.
The decisions we will be forced to
make in 1855 may have little effect on
the turn of world events, but neverthe-
less they are important. The sum and
total of individual decisions make up
the world conditions. If our private
actions are sound and reasonable then
the reflection in the world conditions
will be pleasing.
Many of us will make and break
resolutions. We may do so because it
is universal practise. We may void
our intentions because we do not pos
sess the will power or because condi-
tions are beyond our control. But
whatever the results we will reap our
just harvest and so will the community
in which we live.
None of US are perfect. We will
make mistakes but if we stand willing
to recognize those errors we'll enjoy
growth we never before had. If we
do our best to avoid errors it'll likely
result in no deeds at all. 1t is the busy
person who makes mistakes, and busy
people are badly needed in this, 1855.

Callahan's Column

Christmas in New YORK.. Need
less to say. it is far cry from
that l injoyed at Fork Creek,
Tennessee where l was born.
And to tell the truth, New York
comes out second in the COM
parison. It is a big, glamorous.
wonderful town but ii does not
have the homeyness of my ma
tive section. Here one finds the
most gl;ttering display of this
days man-made Christmas dec
orations in the world. Just last
night, travelled the whole
length of 5th Avenue IN see
what the Yuletide motif was.
Big stores festooned with thous-
ands of lights and complicated,
expensive windows right out of
The Arabian Nights" Especial
ly in Radio City where the bril-
liantly-lighted column of dazzel-
ing figures down along the plaza
climaxes in a IRENE n d o u 3
Christmas tree which is un-
doubtedly the biggest one in the
world.
I'll still take Fork Creek. Out
there where my father had a
crossroads country store, our
decorations started with a sprig
OF holly in the living-room win
dow lighted by a coal-oil lamp.
In front of the old-fashioned
fireplace, we had a crude, little
Christmas tree brought from the
farthest COW pasture-but it was
beautiful. For my mother and
dad selected and prepared it
and to us, it meant an awful lot.
1t was our very own symbol of
Christmas. We five children
really believed in Santa Claus,
and hung our stockings on the
chimney. Next morning they
were filled, too. Oranges, APP
piles, sticks of striped pepper
mint candy, a little toy or two
and Christmas card from San
IA Claus, written in a familiar
hand, which wished us sincerely
happy holidays. To have one of
these Christmases again, I'd
trade all of New York-and
lot more.
And l am not alone in this
big city, in this nostalgia long
ing for the old, the nice and
simple things of life. Part of the
reason we wish for them, of
course, is because the olden,
golden days represent a joyful
part of our youth. Things that
have happened since then, no
matter how important, are dull
