P. Bowers, Rev. Julius Sack of
Savannah will fill the pulpit at
the Pembroke Christian Church

in Pembroke and has many friends
who will welcome him here on
Sunday.
All other departments of the

Dixie Harn To
Occupy 2 Stores
The store building that will he
vacated by the Western Auto
Store, and which is next to the
one now occupied by J. Dixie
Harn, will be taken over by Mr.
Harn and this will give him two
adjoining stores, and this will en
able him to carry a bigger line
of builders supplies, electrical
equipment, gas equipment etc.,
and not interfere with his 5 and
10c store either. For a long time
he has operated all of his business
out of the one store and it has
been too crowded for him to prop
erly carry on his affairs, but with
the additional store he will be
able to expand his business.

Killed By Tree In
Reservation
While at work cutting trees for
Rex L. Waters, Mandell Collins a
white man about fifty years old
was killed last week in the reser

manner the tree slipped loose and

child. He came to Pembroke some
years ago from Tattnall County.
time than at any time in years,
we are told. It is planned to pub
lish a financial statement of the
affairs of the county as soon as
the auditors get through with their
work and one is available.
We understand that everything
went off in a harmonious manner,
and that the new Board has start
ed out on its term of four years
with a better understanding and
probably better cooperation than
has been possible in the past.
All of the members are good
men, and we look forward to this
being one of the best terms of
service that we have had in many
years.
Rev. V. P. Bowers
In The Hospital
The many friends of Rev. V. P.
Bowers will regret to learn that
he is a patient at the Central of
Georgia Hospital in Savannah, but
wil] he glad to know that his con
dition is better and it is hoped
that after a few days stay there,
which will give him some much
needed rest, as well as medical
treatment that he will be able to
return to his home here. He had
been very active up to Sunday,
and on Sunday night he became ill
and it was thought best to take
him to a hospital. The Journal
joins his many other friends in
wishing for our good friend Rev.
Bowers an early return to good
health and hope to see him about
his usual duties soon.

Pembroke Girls
Win From Nevils
Boys Lose Theirs
On Tuesday night two of the
best basket ball games of the sea
son was played at the Pembroke
Gymnasium, when the teams from
the Nevils School came here for a
return engagement of their basket
ball games. It resulted as it did
at Nevils, the boys lost and the
girls won.
The girls game was a humdin
ger from the very start, always
close and as hot as a depot stove,
but about the roughest game we
have seen played between the
girls. The game wound up with
Pembroke having 28 and the Nevils
girls with 25.
The boys game started out with
our boys trailing anywhere from
six to 10 points, but in the third
quarter business picked up, and
got hotter and hotter in the fourth
quarter, and when the gong sound
ed it stood Pembroke 48 and
Nevils 49.
The teams from Nevils are good,
and for our girls to win and the
boys to play within one point, is
nothing to feel bad about.
The teams from Stilson will be
here Friday night and that in
sures every one of two more good
games, and we will be lucky to
save our “hides” in either game.
But we are hoping to put a trim
ming on both the girls and the
boys from Stilson.
Nothing like being optimistic to
say the least.
Stay In School
If you are “on the fence” and
undecided as to whether to con
tinue your education, enter some
branch of service, or quit and
take a job, take the time to fin
ish reading this article. A weekly
pay-check may look more attrac
tive and seem more appealing
than our high school program,
but stop and think! The present
world conflict ends, we enter an
other reconversion period, and you
will find yourself in a glutted
labor market without the train
ing required, technically, or vo
cationally, to hold down a good
job. What then ’
You can’t afford to let a blurred
future in a war-riddled world
throw you for a loss. Your world
is not only where you live, but
how you live on a day to dn\
liasis. Nothing but eventual dis
appointment and loss of oppor
tunity can be predicted for boys
and girls who quit now and do
not finish their education. Once
the present critical condition is
passed, you will probably experi
ence difficulty in even finding the
simplest kind of a job unless you
are a high school graduate. Stay
in Schoo] now!
Education is something that you
attain or achieve. It can’t ba given
to you. No one can take it from
you. The young man or woman
with the good school record has
immediate, advantages over the
person who has failed to take ad
vantage of his opportunities.
Whatever you do, dare to do
right. Dare to stand out from the
crowd and do the things that are
right because you really want to
do them. And keep clean physi
cally, mentally, and spiritually.
You may fool your parents, you
may bluff your teachers, and you
may pull the wool over the eyes
of your neighbors. But you have
to go on living with yourself. There
is one person and one person only
that you can’t fool. That person
is YOU.
Western Auto
Store To Move
G. T. and C. C. Spinks owners
of the local branch of the West
ern Auto Store is getting ready
to move their business to the store
building just beyond the Theatre
and formerly occupied by the
Smith Furniture Store. This will
give them a much larger store
building and also ample ware
house buildings for their business.
The store has been opened here
for three years and has enjoyed
I a fine business from the very
; start, and now that they will have
■ room to carry a complete line,
and properly display it, they feel
that their business will increase.
