INDIANA VISITOR
PRAISES GLORiES
OF OUTER BANKS
Seashore Found Abundant With
Delightful Scenery. Thrills
and Hospitality

LAFAYETTE Ind. - These are
the times that try mems souls.
The days of the wintry winds,
the snow under foot, the ice
coated sidewalk, the below-zero
temperature. And these are the
times that remind me and my
family of the fine time we had
last August on the Outer Banks.
And we wish it were summer so
we could be there now!
We ALL, my wife, her parents,
both our sons, Chris, 6, and Drew,
4, and perhaps even our daughter,
Kate, 1, for all l know-remembe
the binding but welcome sunshine
that assaulted our pale northern
eyeballs when we bounded out of
our cabin at Mays Head and start
ed for the ocean each morning.
We have fond memories too, of
the crashing surf as it rolled in
from the countless miles out to
sea, bringing visions of pirate
ships, deep-sea monsters, and one
blue crab which Grandpa kicked
out of the waves onto the beach
and which Grandma put into a
pot in the kitchen for US to sam
pie.
We remember the genial hospi-
tally and infectious good nature
of Mrs. Sallie Daniels, from whom
we rented a cabin for that glor-
ious week. We can't forget her
unusual accent-more like some
one from England than from dear
old Dixie. How that woman can
work! She even told US proudly
of hiking miles up and down the
excellent road that goes through
Mays Head.
We remember the skittery crabs
that scuttled across the beach day
and night. And how the kids tried
to trap one between holes and
never succeeded. Also how these
crabs would clutter up the high
way at night, peering apgrily at
the cars barreling down on them.
We remember with delight the
consistently wonderful courtesy
extended to us by the fine people
of Manteo where we frequently
shopped. We had heard of the
great hospitality of the South, but
nowhere in our travels did we find
any to match that exhibited at
Manteo and Mays Head.
For these and many more rea-
sons, we want to return to Mays
Head-to see Sallie again, to leap
into the booming Atlantic, to con-
jure the images of pirates on the
horizon, to climb the big dunes,
and to experience once more the
pleasures of an Outer Banks vaea-
ton.

vited here to visit us and to in
vest their money, and who by their
investment, have provided means
whereby many of us make liv-
ing. The law does not give us the
right to soak one group and favor
another. We have no right to be-
lieve man may be rich and there
fore it won't hurt him to pay
plenty. Our nonresident property
owners receive little in return for
the taxes they pay in that they
share no benefits from our school
and welfare funds. On the other
hand, our residents enjoy the ben
efits of all the taxes paid by our
property owners. say, we should
treat the nonresident, voteless
taxpayers as fairly as we treat
our native residents and voters;
remembering too that many of the
latter leave home before day to
go forth to their toll; some of
them having to deny their fami-
lies many things that might have
delighted the yearning hearts of
their little ones in this season.
1t is their money, not ours we
handle, and we handle it because
they have trusted us. We should
therefore watch it most carefully,
and more jealousy than were it
or own.

and "Gunsmoke" outfits, q
"Have Gun, viii Travep

chuck wagon. a replica Of
Fort Pitt peopled with soldiers
and surrounded by Indians,

Other types of TV shows get
attention too, with the debut
of such games as Perry
Mason" and the Case of the
Missing Secret" "Concen-
tration" and the appear
ance in stuffed plush OF
cartoon characters like Huck-
leberry Hound and friends.
The concern about educa-
ton in this country has pro-
duced a rash of educational
playthings-board games that
teach geography, with Hawaii
and Alaska added to United
States maps; a series of books
that tell What Is a Rock"
what Is a Cow" what Is
a Season." etc.; flash cards
to sharpen children's knowl-
edge of the alphabet, adj
dition, subtraction, multiple
cation and division; magnet
toys, and many others.
Parents who aren't much
interested in motivation,
who'd rather give the old
time favorites, will find drums
and horns, teddy bears, doll
houses, crayons and coloring
books available.
