OF
TIL E PAST
BY CAROLYN LLOYD

Recently a picture of a Hun
gariaa woman refugee, weeping
ais she accepted a cup Of coffee
frona @ Red Cross worker, seemed
to heap at me from the newspaper
as I drank the second cup Of
Breakfast coffee. Suddenly was
struck with the magnitude of my
blessings. That cup of coffee in
ny hand could grow cold, but
there was plenty more where that
came from. ! didn't have to stand
shivering in the cold, grateful for
handout from stranger. While
h sat in my warm kitchen, fretting
a little because / had to leave it
and 60 to work, that woman stood

" she had left behind in Hungary
nuem of her family who had only
q slight chance for survival in
their fight for freedom. While
tomorrow is uncertain for Us all,
she knew that her tomorrow could
bring nothing but heartache.
This Thanksgiving I shall try
to keep that woman's face before
me If the temptation to belittle my
blessings should beset me. 1t is
good that once a year, at least,
we are forcibly reminded to give
thanks for the little things. 1t is
easy enough to be grateful for
the big blessings, but most of US
overlook the everyday ones that
count most. We complain about
having to go to work when we
should be grateful that we can
earn a living, as well as contribute
something to society by perform
ing a necessary task. Human ma
ture being what it is, it is some
times impossible to see the silver
Innings but perhaps for just one
day we can forget to look at the
clouds.
This Thanksgiving is as good
time as any to resolve to be thank
full each day for the everyday
comforts that make life so much

of night traffic hazards, and all
of them simple but effective.
Zone of the answers is good
walking habits, and alertness and
caution in crossing the street." he
said. another one is good driving
habits-driving carefully to offset
the poor vision brought on by twi-
light and darkness and keeping a
sharp lookout for pedestrians and
children on bikes as we'll as for
other cars"
Major Lentz particularly stress
ed the fact that night hazards also
claim their share of young bike
riders, who fail to equip their
bikes with a good headlight, and
tail lights or reflectors thus max
ing them more visible to motorists
by trimming them with white or
reflectorized material.
II think the best way to sum
up the message of what our state
program in traffic safety is doing
is to stress the rule which should
be the creed of every motorist,
especially at night: BE Your
Brothers Keeper"

easier than it once was. For oil
heaters, and electricity, and hot
water-and myriads of other crea-
ture comforts; for every day of
reasonably good health; for
friends. This Thanksgiving, too,
we should be particularly grateful
for the things we haven't had, such
as hurricanes. There certainly
won't be any dissenting voices on
that one.
1t seems like a good time too
for me to say a personal THANK
you" to those people who have
taken the time and trouble to
write me about this column. Those
letters deserve individual answers,
and one day my good intentions
may win out over a natural ten
dency toward procrastination. In
the meantime, believe me, each
letter and each comment from
readers makes me proud and at
the same time humbly aware of
the necessity for improvement.
They make me grateful, too, for
he opportunity of keeping in touch
nth old friends and making new
mes. A recent letter from an ex-
upil of quite few years ago, for
lstance, served to remind me that

BEWARE OF THE DANGERS
OF NIGHT TIME DRIVING

Raleigh.-"Beware of the dark
ness in nighttime driving and
walking-it hides danger!"
Tar Heel motorists and pedes-
TRANS were advised this week to
heed the warning of Major w. B.
Lentz, chief of the State Highsway
Patrols transportation and COM
munications division.
"The hours of twilight and dark
bring danger on our roads and
highways, not only to motorists
but also to pedestrians" he said.
Major Lentz pointed out that
the National Safety Council esti-
mates that the mileage death rate
in an average year is three times
as great at night as in the day.
light hours, and further stated
that almost half of North Caro-
lina's 1865 traffic death occurred
at night.
"The hours particularly fatal
are from 5 pm. to 8 pm, when
people are rushing homeward
from work, tired, fretful, and i'm
patient, and then out again later
for some appointment at which
they always seem to be late" the
patrol executive said.
The answer?

A MuLTIMILLlON DOLLAR
HOLE IN THE GROUND TO
BE REOPENED M NEVADA

q ~ .
Washington. - A multi-million
dollar hole in the ground is to be
reopened.
This is the Comstock Lode in
Nevada, producer Of vast wealth
in gold and silver during a lusty
period of American history.
One of the richest mining areas
ever developed, the Comstock help
ed finance the North in the Civil
War, provided the basis for sew
eral American fortunes, rejuvenat-
ed San Francisco, and lifted Cali
fornia from a depression, hte Ma
tional Geographic Society says. AS
operations declined, the Comstock
left on its doorstep one of the
most famous Of ghost towns,
Virginia City.
Modern Methods to Try Again
The Consolidated Virginia Min
ing Co., one of the best-known
names on the Comstock in its big
gest bonn period, the 1905, re-
Gently announced it will resume
work, developing with modern
methods low-grade ore deposits
Improbable in earlier days,
Discovered in 1859 by a group
of placer miners, the lode lies be-
tween two rocks faces in western
Nevada. 1t was formed perhaps go
million years ago, biologists be-
lieve, by the upwelling of subter-
ranean fire and steam. These
earth fires still burn beneath the
lode. Water as hot as ITO degrees
Fahrenheit, gushing into the
shafts, stopped deep mining efforts
at the 1000 foot level.
The men who worked these deep
mines, sometimes in inches so hot
their bodies had to be sprayed
with cold water, sought boisterous
recreation on the surface.
Culture and Decorum
Although more decorous than
many mining camps of the period,
Virginia City had it's moments OF
excitement. Memorable was the
opening of the first opera house,
which, with it's successors, was to
provide a showcase for such stars
as Modjeska, Joe jefferson, Buff
falo Bill, Lolita Crabtree, and Ed
win Booth.
Two feuding mine superintend-
ents attended the opening in tail
coats and Colt reviewers, which
they soon put in use. Their friends
joined in hte fusillade across the
orchestra, puncturing a few dia-
mond-studded shirt fronts and the
new curtain, embellished with a
genuine hand-painted representa-
ton of the Lakes of Killarney.
Luckily, no one seemed to carry
more than six shots when in eve
ming dress. The battle subsidized,
and the show went on. No one
was seriously hurt.
The history of the Comstock is
laced through with stock details
of all kinds; battles under the
earth between workers of adjoin-
ing mines; and such tactics as in
