l-RBCTIOM TWO PAGE SIX ANSWER TO MOSCOW ] By JOHN D. McCREADY fc.diiur k Soto: This is nl » wrii's of articles written by John l>. Me-1 Cready, head of the KiiKlish Depart- 1 meat *at Chowan College. Mr. Me- [ Cready lor 18 ..par* was pastor of the | J'irst Baptist Church at .Morganton and i nerved u* army chaplain in World War i II and was state chaplain for the Am- | erican Legion. Since connected with I Chowan College, Mr. McCreudy has j preached at many churches in this area. * Little Mollie, her grandfather’s pride and joy, was spending the summer with him on the planta tion; and a wonderful time she was having. But among ail the things that absorbed her interest, I her chief delight was in two young chicken-:. Her grandfather, Mr. Winston, had given her these soon after they were hatched. One was black, and she had named him Jack; the other, which was white, she had named Jill. These two became as devoted to her as she was to them. They would follow her around the yard, and come whenever she called their names. One day a Negro appeared at the plantation applying for work as a harvest hand. After asking him a few question*. Mr. Winston hired him, and showed h'm th r servants’ quarters. Just before leaving him, he asked his name first name especially. The reply of the new hand was surprising. “My name,’’ he said, “is Love.” “Love?” said Mr. Winston in as tonishment. “Well, you don’t think I’m going to cal] you Love, do you? I'll just give you sonv other name. Let’s see . . . I'll just call you ‘Jack’.” “Yes sir. Boss —that's all right You jes’ call me ‘Jack’ and I'll be Jack,” and the new worker went to join the other Negroes at their supper. The next morning Mr. Winston rose early to start the farm-hands at their tasks. He walked to the j edge of the back porch and look-, ed toward the Negroes’ cabins. I “Jack, Jack—oh Jack!" he call-j ed through the fresh morning air., “Yes. sir, cornin’ right now.” re plied his new hand, ns he walked briskly toward the house, happy at the thought of his new job. But what was this—something else eoming at the same time, at an equally rapid rate? The two [ SUNDAY SCHOOL ! I LESSON * AAAmaaaaa - *-■* 'Ny* ■- ».

So, it is not necessarily in a spirit of condemnation that we mention the changing style of preaching in America. It is more in the spirit of marking progress, as it was achieved and as the na tion grew in its understanding and faith in the way of bfe of Jesus, that we note the transi-, tion. In Protestant churches the spo ken word is still, and always will ibe, one.of the foundations of faith, i That, spoken word is free, as it was in the time of Jesus. This interpretation of religion, and faith, allows individuals to think and reason for themselves and to choose from 1 [ ASSORFW iNT ° r 1 I B«*Pf e ] I Seeds !

' . arrived at the same moment —the Negro and a young black chicken. “What’s this?” asked the new hand, looking down at the small fowl, which appeared to regard him as in some way a competitor. "Oh that," answered Mr. Win ston, “is one of my granddaugh ter's pet chickens." The new employee thought no more of the incident and was soon busy about his work. But the next day the same thing happened again; and the Negro, when he mentioned the matter to some of his fellow workers, found the explanation. One morning soon afterwards he brought up the subject, as he and the dapper pet chicken stood before the man for whom he was working. "Mr. Winston,” he said with some hesitancy, “when you call me—when you come out here and j call 'Jack, oh Jack!’ and I come, that chicken comes too—and that ! makes me feel sort o’ ridiculous. We’s both named Jack. Mr. Win ston, eotildn't you get some other] name for me stead o’ Jack?” The plantation owner was a kindly man. and blest with a keen I sense of humor. He. saw that his 1 new hand had a case, and he! agreed to find him still another 1 name which he could be called i without embarrassment. From! that moment the name “Jack” was the sole possession of the little black chicken. In the years that followed, the tiny owner of the two pets, Jack and Jill, found many objects for her loving care. Her grandfa ther himself was one of these, as she tenderly cherished him and made happy his sunset years; and there were many others. For any whose pathways crossed hers she [had an instinctive concern. And [this loving spirit, reflected in a ! face of rare beauty, awakened in all a love toward her. At this Valentine’s Day season, the words that express the feel ings of many toward those who have blest their lives, apply to the i little girl of other days on the old plantation. “But to see her was to love her— Love but once, and love for ever.” work and educate together. But such emphasis on the spo j ken word does not lessen the need I for all that must go along with pleaching, constant education, missionary work, conversion and i building. Behind the great ser ! mon there must be hard work and ; immeasurable effort, if the Chris jtian faith is to move ahead and j grow greater and stronger In this connection, not only ev ery preacher, but every church member, has the obligation to preach the word of God, in his own way. In other words, it is not enough to listen to the preacher, to sit through his ser mons. Tiiere 'comes a time in ev 4 = —— FOR SALE Known As Sid Harrington Home Place 2 Miles Fast of Roper, N.

Norfolk Preparing For Azalea Week Distribution of new four-color brochures on Azalea Week in Nor folk and the city's Municipal Gar dens was begun last week by the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce. Azalea Week opens here April j 14. Highlight of the week-long program, 'he International Azalea] Court, is scheduled for the after- j noon of April 19 in the Municipal i Gardens. Coronation of Queen Azalea V —this year’s Queen of the North All ant i e Treaty Organization! (NATO) countries—will be held’ alongside a pew “International Lagoon”, according to the folders, j Sides of the one-acre lagoon will bo planted with azaleas in all col-1 ors and sizes. While the identity of Queen Azalea is a closely-guarded secret until the time of her coronation draws near, the folder betrays at least part of the secret. The Chamber is returning this year to the traditional plan of drawing the queen from the Unit-i ed States rather than one of the | other 14 nations who participate, in the festival. Last year, Lady Carey Coke of Norfolk, England, was chosen Queen Azalea IV in keeping with the spirit of Virginia's 350th, birthday celebration and the Jamestown Festival. Outlined in the folder is thej entire program for the 1958 Aza- ; lea Week, which promises to b the largest ever staged. A con cert by the Glee Club of Virginia; Military Institute and participa-j tion by Midshipmen from the U. S. Naval Academy, both new this; year, will highlight the program.. The Chamber, sponsor of the an nual Azalea Week observance and the International Azalea Couit, is mailing 200,000 of the two bro chures to points throughout the country. ON USS RUSHMORE John O.

These meetings are being held in connection with the Home Demonstration Club members and,their families. These two are -?re tirst of ten such meetings to be held in as many communities in Chowan County. The demonstration de picts an unimproved farmstead. Based on the suggestions of the audience, the farmstead plan is gradually worked out and the finished picture results on the flannel board. Improving the farmstead and home grounds does not necessar ily have to be an expensive pro ject. Certainly a family can clean up and place up things around the farmstead. Painting of the buildings is important and the planting does cost some money but the family members can be the painters. Sprouts and cuttings of shrubbery can often be obtained from neighbors who will be delighted to cooper ate. While it takes a little more time to root a cutting and get a shrub growing, it doesn’t cost any money. “Before improving the lawn to a great extent,” says the agents, “it is important to establish the drives and walks, then prepare the lawn and then set the shrub bery.” The agents hope that families in the various communi l:es will take advantage of their opportunity and come to these meetings to learn more about ways and means to improve their farmstead and the home grounds. Chowan Student On Honor Roll According to a recent an nouncement from the office of J. Irving Brooks, Chowan College Dean of Instruction, two groups of students have received official recognition from the college be ! cause of their academic achieve- I ment during the fall semester of the present school year. One Chowan County student was among the 31 names released. , He is the Rev. Frank Fortesque of Tyner, who was on the honor roil.
