He has out-maneuvered us in
diplomacy and whenever that
failed, he has held us in check
by fear. Wonder what Patrick
Henry of "Give me liberty or
give me death" fame would have
to say about or to Khrushchev
if he were alive today?
krushchev shots down un-
armed planes; makes prisoners
of American citizens; makes
pay ransom for those he ooes
nor kill and is CURRY of many
other provocative acts.
There n-ver was a bully who
could be appeased. If we have
ever learned anything certainly
we've learned that - the haro
way.
Once there was a fellow by
the name of Goliath. He was a
bully like khrushchev. He was
Pr listine- big, strong,
cocky and boastfuI. He wore
heavy armor and carried a big
spear. He paraded before the
lsraeIite camp and had it cow
ed and frightened. But one day.
there came a little shepherd
boy "a strip of a lad - named
David. David was an expert with
sIing-shot. A sIing-shot is a
powerful and deadly weapon.
David and Goliath met in battle
and we all know the end of the
story.
Let's hope that in America
another David can be found to
tame this modern Goliath.

both Justice of the Peace and

doing give to our public better

At long last this dream has
materialized and the en- tire

Judge Thomas E. Murphy as
Justice of the Peace, not only
to serve in the capacity of
judge, but to be our representa-

Now, whether or not he was

was elected and consequently

Rotary Will
Sponsor Cub
Scouts Here

The Tabor City Rotary Club
voted Monday night to sponsor
the local Cub Scout program in
Tabor City and named a five
man committee to work with the
young scouters. Serving on this
committee will be Richard Cor
don. cubmaster: Frank Nesmith,
K. c. Soles, Jr.. Paul Rogers,
Jr.. and Harold Fonvielle.
James Cox. who has been
serving as cubmastcr for a num-
Der OF years. is understood to
have accepted the position of
scoutmaster with older scouters
and this necessitated the naming
of new cubmastcr.
Don Hughes. who was in
charge of the Monday night pro-
gram at the regular club meet
ing, discussed fires and the vari-
Gus procedure for reporting
fires. A member of the local
volunteer fire department, Hugh
es briefly told of the fine record
the local department has had
during the past two years.
The committee responsible for
procuring $50 bushels of sweet
potatoes for the school cafeteria
reported that about 70 bushels
had been contributed thus far.
Randall Burleson, principal of
the local schools. reported that
every child was now being pro-
vided with regular lunch at the
school. A number of these are
being provided by local citizens
who have adopted" needy
child by providing a free lunch.
About 100 are being taken care
of by the school itself.
Burleson reported that some
misunderstanding had arisen
over the published report that
the lunchroom had lost $500. lie
pointed out that the cafeteria
did run some $500 in the red
one month but that this was sim
ply taken up by the cafeteria
reserve funds that had accumu-
lated in past months. The cafe
terra fund had about $4,000 in it
when the school year began.
Burleson pointed out that the
$500 loss one month was not
diSastorouS but that such loss
would not be good business over
the whole school year and would
use up so much of the reserve
that it would not be possible to
purchase new equipment and
other things needed by the cafe.
terra However. with the asSiS-
lance of the citiZenry. the pro-
grom now is feeding all the
and there is no longer
any danger of the cafeteria run
ming into the red. Burlcson said.
