PAGE TWO -.SECTION TWO | 60 - SECOND M| I SERMONS mm j TEXT: “Criticism comes easier than craftsmanship" —Zeuxis. A party guest turned to a stranger to criticize the singing of a woman who was trying to enter- | tain them. “What a terrible voice.” he j complained. “Do you know who j she is?” “Yes,” was the answer. “She | is my wife!” “Oh,” said the critical one. “I j beg your pardon. It isn't her; voice, it's the stuff she has to sing.; I wonder who wrote it?” “L did,” was the answer. Without critics this would be aj backward world. Criticism of j conditions, customs and ideas brought primitive man from his : History Os The Amsrican Flag ] l The Flag of the United States; of America is the third oldest of, the national standards of the, world; older than the Union Jack of Great Britain or tiic Tricolor of France. During the early days of the: Revolutionary War a variety of, flags were used bv the different) colonies and military commands. | Prominent among these were the! '“Pine Tree” and the "Rattle-j snake" flags with various ar rangements and mottoes. Late in 1775 a committee of Congress with Benjamin Frank-J lin at the head, after consulting j with Washington, then in com mand of the army at Cambridge, decided upon the form for a new flag. This flag consisted of thir-j teen stripes, red and white, with ! the crosses of St. George and St. J Andrew on a blue field in the canton or union. This preceded j the Declaration of Independence I and indicated that the colonies had not wholly broken from the, mother country. This flag was: first, unfurled by Washington' January 2. 1776. It was p.roba- 1 bly this flag which was raised byj Paul Jones on his vessel and car-, ried by the American fleet which sailed out of Philadelphia in Feb-j ruarv, 1776. During 1776 and 1777 a number ot flags with thirteen stripes caine into Use and the need of a definite national emblem was rea lized. On June 14. 1777, Congress passed an act stating "That the Flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, that the union be thir-j teen stars, white in a blue field.? representing a new constellation,"! This was the birthday of the Flag) as we now know it and June 14; is now celebrated as "Flag Day." i This new flag was probably first), displayed on land during the Bat tle at Fort Stattwix. New York.!, although there are a number of! What Is The Largest “Farm Group” In North Carolina? 198,705 Farm Families Who Regularly Save Trading Stamps Are The Biggest [ u Farm Croup 99 in North Carolina, \ America’s farm families are traditionally thrifty. The same pattern of thrift is found in North Carolina. It is only nat ural, therefore, that the re sponse of North Carolina farm families to one of the oldest forms of thrift the trading stamp is so noticeable. Today, about 198,705 farm families save them. You might also say that these savers con stitute the largest single farm group in the state. During 1957 alone, thou sands of dollars worth of trad ing stamp merchandise went into farm households in the, state, and every 2 seconds a farm family is redeeming trad ing stamps. ~ ' trees and caves, and gave him j civilized living. Constructive crit- I Visrn is one of man's great abili ties. We should take care, however, j not to confuse fault-finding and j conceited "second-guessing” with : constructive criticism. Too often | we join a popular chorus of corn-1 ; plaint to gain a momen’s attention | or flattering agreement. There is a simple wav to tell j j the difference between needed j criticism and useless fault-finding.> When the urge to criticize is: felt I j-—stop! Think: Ask what good) [ can come from the complaint. j no good can come from it. don t j j criticize. Constructive criticism' jean result in some good. When ; j no good can come from criticism. • silence shows greater wisdom. I authorities who claim that thej 'first Stars and Stripes displayed | ! in battle was at the Battle of Ben nington. Vermont. August 16th. 1777. At any rate, this flag, as j displayed, remained the national i standard until 171)5. The first dis ! play of the Stars and Stripes by , the Continental Army was when I the Flag was hoisted over Fort i Stanwix. New York, on August 3. : JT77. , In the meantime Vermont and j I Kentucky hail become states, and, jon January 13. 1794. Congress! voted that the Flag should have) ! fifteen stripes and fifteen stars. | This Flag remained in use for! twenty-three years, and it was 1 The Star-Spangled Banner” of .which Francis Scott Key wrote j in 1814.. In April. 1818. Congress passed | an act providing that the Flag should have the thirteen horizon j t;il stripes, alternate red and I White, and that the union should , display twenty stars, representing ! the number of states then in the) j Union. It also provided that onj 'the admission of every new state! • to the Union a star should be add-1 i il on the following Julv 4th and j .this has been the regulation ever since, accounting for the number j of stars now shown.

Just how many shots miss is a problem that would be hard to guess. The wild life advocates are spending much time and some on'iif v .in order to protect game and insure hunting in the future. Various parts of the country There is still another lido direct income for farmers. During 1957 the industry pur chased 51,366,000 worth of primary materials that go info the manufacture of merchan dise for stamp redemption. No one can contemplate these facts and fail to realize that both personally and eco nomically the trading stamp industry is a meaningful and welcome force in the life of our state.. > * * ♦ \ This message is published as pubße information by The Sfemy AMD Hutchinson Company, ortgjnatCf 63 years ago of SdtH Great Stamp*.

Some hunting for large j game and some for small game. It is hoped that all will obey the wild life regulations and that there may be an abundant amount of all kinds of. game protected for the future sportsmen. Many huntert spend much time and money in order to shoot wild ducks. However, there is an other kind of duck that is very | aboundant at the present time. They may be found anywhere from Canada to Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Not far in the future they may mi grate to Alaska. This duck is the J lame duck. At the present time I there are more lame ducks than j ever known before. There are i large lame ducks. There are i i small lame ducks. The greatest number of lame ducks ever j known were released on Novem ber the fourth. Lame ducks are I like mules. Destroy every mule \ in the world and soon there may Ibe as many more. Eliminate ev i ery lame duck and soon there will jbe as many more. They are not | needed for the propagation of the j lame duck species.

This Jesus deserves a very particular brand if homage, of respect, of awe. All this we know now. But in the days of his birth only two women knew of his special im portance to the world. Mary, his mother, and her cousin Elisabeth. When he came he was not born to pomp and circumstance: he was not born in luxurious surround ings. He was born in a manger, j because there was no room at the j inn. Nobody in the inn knew j that something wonderful had happened. Shepherds in a field j were told by the angels. Three wise men came to see him. When I they told Herod the king that a j new king was being born, Herod sent his soliders to kill all the i babies in Bethlehem to make cer i tain the destruction of the new \ king. But Herod did not kill Je ! sus. He was spared to the world: j a fact for which we must ever | be thankful. !
