' This was “retreat for
.the mihisters’ wives in our area
and we had 10 Vives from our
association attend the v. second
'seminar at Southeastern ' Semin
ary from Monday evening
through Thursday noon. Same
few of them returned a day

fbitogh the last session and then
hated to leave. Janie Harrell,
Madeline Bradley. Dot 'jgobk,
Betty Ann Faircloth, Yj|ginia (
Bfown, Barbara Bishop, She
Ojtendine, Nancy Gerraid and
Martha Beals and myself made
up the big group. 'Martha ser- !
ved as chairman of the retreat
this year and did a fine joh
in preparing the program. We
would advise those ministers’
Wives who missed this to put
the dates on their calendar now
for next year!
Bob Harrell left us on Friday
.to teach leaders of Royal Am
bassadors in the Brotherhood Re
treat at Frederick, Md., for the
District of Columbia Baptist
Convention. Lots of folks are
finding out that our busy super
intendent of missions is a talent
ed leader. We ought to be proud
of him.
Friday night about 70 of the
Rocky Hock folks had a night
out at the Chowan ball field*
The Brotherhood and the RA
boys played against each other
again and this time the boys
' won the close game. The girls
played the “big girls” artd your
reporter failed to get the score
on this one. Then the “smaller
set” had a game and no doubt
this was the most enjoyable'
game of all. Everyone present
jeemed to want to do this fami
ly-night-out-together again soon.
Not as much voting in this
second primary as the first—
at least in this section guess
that could mean anything!
