“This guy is standing there, offering me $15 million. And he said I don’t want last year’s nuts. This was on a Sunday morning, 9:30 or 10:00. He flew in from China straight to Raleigh and drove straight to my farm with translators, and he said I want 200, 40-foot containers of these, $15 million.”

Powers explained that he didn’t have the quantity the buyer was seeking, and to get that quantity from a single grower, the buyer would have to go to Georgia.

“He was in Georgia the next morning,” adds Powers. “And he bought 200 container truck loads, and he sent 50 of them back to America.”

Powers says that pecans grow in all counties in North Carolina, but most are grown east of Interstate 77. Most are grown on a fifty-mile line east or west of I95.

Ken Smith THE COUNTRY STORE, MAMA, AND THE GREEN SET OF DISHES When I was a little girl growing up on a farm in the New- ton’s Crossroads community, (the same farm my family and I still live on today), a lot of every day needs were bought at the little country store at “The Crossroads.” For major grocery shopping, Mama went to Wallace to the Piggly Wiggly. It was located in front of the railroad tracks back then. Today there’s an auction house there. But for things that ran out or were needed in between grocery shopping, we went to the little country.

It was small in size, but as it was with most country stores back then, there was a lot packed inside of it. There was food, cleaning supplies, as well as hardware items, and medicines. In those days, country stores real- ly were general stores. There was a drink box that held ice-cold soft drinks in glass bottles and a freezer box that held ice cream. My favorite things were the big round clear containers that held different kinds of cookies. My favorites were the pink and white frosted tea cookies and the yellow frosted lemon cookies. If you were buying a piece of ¨rat cheese,” also known as hoop cheese, you HAD to get Johnnycakes. People would think there was something wrong with you if you did. You told the store clerk how many cookies of which kinds you wanted and they put them in little brown paper bags. To me, nothing tested better than those cookies and an ice-cold bottle of went down to the store and sat around and talked.

63-68 (L) Clinton Dark Horse basketball coach Randy Jordan stated that his team has had an outstanding season. The Dark Horse varsity Women men’s team defeated the Fairmont Golden Tornadoes on Tuesday night 80-56 in the Regional Semi-Finals of the 2A Tournament. The Dark Horses are now preparing for the biggest game of their careers when they take on the Greenville Central Rams on 02/06 Coastal Christian Saturday at Minges Coliseum on the East Carolina campus at 6pm. This is only the second time in the school’s history that the 24-41 (L) men’s varsity basketball team has advanced to the Eastern Championship game. 02/01 Fayetteville Academy Coach Jordan stated, “This has been an outstanding season in so many more ways than just our record and where we are at this 24-32 (L) point in the season. It has been a real pleasure to work with these young men and the assistant coaches every day. To see these young men not only get better as players, but to grow into fine young men has been an honor. Some of them have been with us Hobbton High School for 4 years and they have really developed in all ways.” Men Jordan noted that the team had a great deal of strengths being size, speed, overall strength, chemistry and team work, along with 02/13 North Duplin a solid work ethic and belief in each other.

66-74 (L) Jordan said that the team has a few weaknesses that they were working on. “We tend to play to the level of our competition at 02/08 Lakewood times. We need to come out ready to play every day from the opening tip.”

53-72 (L) The team has 9 seniors this year, Kris Williams, Zion Autry, Tymair McIntyre, Hampton Brock, Kahari Williams, Austin Fussell, Tyson King, Dewan Lesene, and Trevor Leggett. The Coach noted, “They have put in the time to improve not only their games, Women but to be better off the court and academically as well. They are really hard workers.” 02/12 Lakewood Jordan talked about what he felt like was the team’s best game and their worst. “Our best game was vs. Goldsboro at home on 06-61 (L) Jan. 3rd,” noted Jordan. “We came out ready to play and really took it to them in all phases of the game. We ended up winning 02/08 Lakewood by 40 and replaced Goldsboro as the #1 ranked team in the State for the 2A level (and have been ranked #1 ever since). Our 30-62 (L) worst game was at Northside. For whatever reason we just did not play well in the 3rd quarter against an excellent opponent. We have all, players and coaches, learned from that experience in so many positive ways. It has really made all of us better.”

When asked who has excelled on the court this year, Jordan stated, “There have been so many that have stepped up. We tell the Lakewood High School guys every year that each of them will have ‘their night’ to shine and that has come true again. Our consistent leaders have been Men Dewan Lesesne, Senior, our leading scorer at 14.5 ppg & 7 rebounds & 3 steals; Kris Williams, Senior, our 2nd leading scorer 02/16 Rosewood at 13.5 ppg and around 3 assists and steals per game; Zion Autry, Senior at 10 ppg & 7 rebounds; Xzavier Howard, Junior, at 10 ppg & 6 rebounds; Trevor Leggett, Senior at 5 ppg, 5 rpg & 3 blocked shots; Tymair McIntyre, Senior at 5 ppg and 3 assists & 55-80 (L) Kahari Williams, Senior at 4 ppg & 4 rpg.” Coach Jordan was quick to give credit to the whole team for this year’s successes. 02/15 Princeton Jordan said that the team is like a family this year, they really click. “The thing about this group, besides being very talented,” noted Jordan, “is that they really like each other on and off the court. They root for each other to do well when they play. They 67-58 (W) really do not care who scores, rebounds, etc..., as long as it is someone wearing the same color uniform as them. The other thing Women that makes us dangerous is that we have a number of guys (4) who average double figures points per game and a few more who 02/22 Northampton County are more than capable any night to score in double figures. This poses a problem for opponents, who are you going to stop? It all goes back to team chemistry, a solid belief in each other and our work ethic.” 37-51 (L) 02/20 Southside Continuing Coach Jordan said, “This has been a really good group of young men to work with every day, not only this year, but over the past 4 years. They have set some goals for themselves as a group and are working very hard to make them a reality. 74-57 (W) No matter the outcome this weekend at ECU, I know that as a coach, I am the one who has been blessed to work with them and see them grow into the fine young men they are. I could not be prouder of them. I hope for them, our Assistants and the entire Midway High School Clinton Community that we are able to win on Saturday and move on to the State Final. It would be a great honor for all of us.” Men In closing, Jordan said that he could not thank the fans enough for their support this year. “We want to thank everyone who has 02/13 Goldsboro supported this team throughout the season and look forward to seeing them all at ECU (and hopefully UNC on the 10th!).”

48-72 (L) The Dark Horse record sits at 26-1, with only one loss under their belt. An impressive record coming into Saturday’s tournament 02/08 Goldsboro game ranked at #1. The only loss of the season happened on December 14th against Northside Jacksonville, 65-58. 47-96 (L) The Greenville Central Rams record is 25-6. 02/07 Wallace Rose Hill 51-64 (L) The Assistant Coaches for the Dark Horses are James Farrior, James Register, Ron Davis and Aaron Lane.

For years, SCC has hosted at least one major Black History Month event in some form. This time, one of Sampson Community College’s Board of Trustees members played a major role in developing this year’s presentation.

Dr. Theodore Thomas wrote the story and reenactment of the famous 1955 Rosa Parks bus incident in Montgomery, Alabama. Parks refused to obey a bus driver’s order to give up her seat based on her race. Parks was not the first person to resist bus segregation. Her subsequent activism led to her being called “the first lady of civil rights” and “the mother of the freedom movement.” From left, event organizer LaVoice Stevens, Dr. Ted Thomas, Leonard Rosa Parks actually started the civil rights movement,” notes Thomas. “What students Henry and SCC President, Dr. Bill Starling. should get from this is that we are all in this together.”

Speaking at the event was Leonard Henry, a local pastor and former NFL player from Clinton. “Today’s message was about honoring African-American history,” said Leonard. “We are reminding students how far we have come from those who paved the way.”

New SCC President, Dr. Bill Starling closed the event by addressing the crowd to honor the civil rights movement and to reiterate the importance of equality and inclusiveness. Midway Middle BETA Recognized

EOEEOE Week of JulyMarch 7-13, 2-8, 2017 2018 www.thesampsonweekly.com 19 BUSINESSBUSINESS WHAT DAY OF THE MONTH DO I GET MY Chamber Member of the Week SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENT? For nearly half a century, American workers looked to 65 as the age at which they could stop working and finally reap their full re- tirement benefits under the Social Security Act of 1935.

Today, however, the full retirement age is now 66 or 67, depending on when you were born. In 1983, Congress changed the law to increase the retirement age gradually over a 22-year period, citing improvements in the health of older people and increases in aver- age life expectancy. To find out your full re- tirement age, visit www.socialsecurity.gov/ planners/retire/ageincrease.html.

If you’ve contributed enough to the Social Security system through payroll taxes, you still can claim your retirement benefits at 65 — or 62, 63, or 64, for that matter — but your monthly payments will be permanently reduced.

For help deciding which age is right for you to start receiving Social Security retirement ben- efits, read, “When to Start Receiving Retirement Benefits” at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/ EN-05-10147.pdf. Powell’s Insurance is an independent insurance agency, specializing in auto, home, We have also made applying for benefits easier than ever. You can do it online! To apply for life, health, and commercial insurance. Their office has been in operation for over benefits, please go to www.socialsecurity.gov/applyforbenefits. 40 years. Visit the fine staff at 110 Lisbon Street for all your insurance needs. That said, age 65 should still factor in prominently as you prepare for retirement and a stable financial future, because that is when most American workers first become eligible for Medi- care health insurance coverage.

Chamber Holds To see if you have earned enough credits through work to qualify for Medicare at age 65, view your Social Security Statement online using your personal my Social Security account. Create 48th Annual Awards or log on to your account at www.socialsecurity.gov/myaccount. If you are already receiving Social Security benefits before age 65, we will automatically enroll you in Medicare Part A (hospital insurance) and Medicare Part B (supplemental medical insur- ance) effective the first day of the month you turn 65. Watch your mailbox a few months before your birthday for your Medicare card.

Otherwise, three months before your 65th birthday, you can apply for Medicare Parts A and B online at www.socialsecurity.gov/applyforben- efits.

Your Initial Enrollment Period for Medicare starts three months before your 65th birthday month and continues for three months after. To learn more about Medicare enrollment and coverage, please visit www.so- cialsecurity.gov/medicare. To learn more about Medicare coverage, visit By Brenda www.medicare.gov. Brown
