( “ THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1965, A \IFT FOR TODAY —ls any mi»n among you seem to be re ligious, and* bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth own heart, this man s re ligion is vajp. —James 1:26. Characteristics of a true Christian , are self-control,-. charity, love, purity and holl ies. Does 4>ur religion measure up to this standard? { O God, Ire re-consecrate our lives to Thee. May fwe always concentrate on those things that lire praiseworthy in Thy sight. Doublecfln Spades or Guns It is one of the ironies of modern so ciety that preparations for war invari ,ably lead to great advances in times of ( peace in medicine, for example; in ,chemical developments, and above all in {transportation. Recently, to meet the demands of pres ent-day brushfire warfare, Lockheed Air jcraft delivered the first of its €-141 Star | Lifter jet carrier planes, designed to carry |twice the load of any previous airfreight [er; to fly faster and to go farther non -stop. The planes are now in operational use. and their effect on the logistics of warfare in remote places like Vietnam n|ay well be imagined. No less dramatic ■»»e their possible application to peace -time and commercial usages. Imagine a disaster, flood or earthquake, ► anywhere in the world. The new jet sgbrriers could fly tractors or bulldozers til clear the wreckage and begin immedi ately the work of reconstruction within hours anywhere in the world. A com "pjete hospital could be rushed to the §ene, with needed surgical equipment, erapeutic machines, hospital beds and nts, as well as doctors and nurses, to jfeive long-range therapy as well as emer gency aid to the victims. Air freight has proved its commercial *value, particularly in the shipment of perishable goods and emergency equip i %ient. In the area of general cargo it tas opened up new international mar ets, tapped new sources previously too #€olol6 for practical trade. The new planes, when in mass operation, would put air freight into the wholesale business din a scale hitherto unimaginable. * All this is still in the pioneer stage, to jjjpe sure. But some idea of the speed of stimulated by war orders, may gained from the fact that even before j,Ahe first of the C-141 Star Lifters had s *fteen delivered, MATS (Military Air Transport Service) called for bids on a Co A, 725,000-pound cargo plane capa , of carrying a 100-ton payload, whose Jfze was twice again that of the C-141. £®iis was in turn twice that of any previ ■ sus airfreighter. Lockheed, a veteran in manufacturing airlift planes, even while it was getting into production the C-141, was shaping up to meet the specifications on the Q-SA, which will be the world’s largest aircraft capable of carrying six Grey hound buses at one time. Military orders may run into more tfean a billion dollars. The heavy cargo ttade lanes of the future will soar above the Seven Seas. 3r One of life’s peculiarities is that when tou are busiest a friend drops in to talk his stomach-aches. ifrabout getting and more about giving, this s might be a better world for everybody. w If you can keep from being envious Maud jealous of your fellow-man you are J approaching the outskirts of civilization. f Hard work is probably a good thing {or # mankind but there are many people who tlwaiit very little of the good things. I _ kv g The best way to become financially in d dependent fa to learn how to say “no” to JyoOfsetf and keep your money for future Sjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj- —“•■I &T S)een ■B “By Buff' Now that the North Carolina General Assembly has closed shop for the 1965 session one reads that the legislators en acted 1,209 bills of the 1,804 considered. It was about the average for other re cent sessions and with so many laws gradually put on the books, how many of us know when we are violating one of ’em? Sort of brings to mind the old country constable who stopped a car and told the driver he was under arrest. “For what?” asked the motorist. “Well, I don’t exactly know,” replied the con stable looking at the state license tag, “but you couldn’t have traveled this far without breaking some of our laws.” o Friend Leroy Haskett has been a pa tient in Norfolk General Hospital for about a week. I understand he was examined from the longest hair on his head to the sole of his feet. He told his wife he expected to be released last Sun day. Later he said it would be Monday, then Tuesday and the latest was that he would come home Wednesday of this week. Here’s hoping he made it, for he said he wanted to come home—and the sooner the better. Well, who blames him? o Sunday should be a big day at the Rocky Hock Baptist Church, when the congregation will observe the 130th an niversary of the founding of this very popular church. Preacher Thurman All red hopes a huge crowd turns out for the affair and was kind enough to invite yours truly. The ceremonies begin at 10:30 o’clock Sunday morning and Mr. Allred was specific enough to tell me that dinner will be served on the grounds at 12:30. Here’s hoping that I can make it and that a lot of others will enjoy the festivities of a group which is very proud of their church. o Methodists in Edenton are well pleas ed with the appointments made at the recent conference held in Raleigh. Rev. E. C. Shoaf was returned to the local church, which is to the liking of just about every member and a lot of other friends as well. Tony Miley substituted for Mr. Shoaf last Sunday and delivered a very interesting sermon, but Mr. Shoaf is scheduled to be back in harness next Sunday and, of course, he’d like to preach to a large crowd. o Alton Elmore presented a very in teresting film at last week’s Rotary meet ing which had to do with the problem of shoplifting. It was surprising to see just what methods are used in pilfering all kinds of merchandise, which included women stuffing many kinds of items in their panties, which must have been a few sizes too large or else very stretchy. Then same tucked items between their legs and a number of other slick ways were shown of how people swipe all kinds of merchandise. And it is a fact, too, that there’s some shoplifters' right here in Edenton. The film pointed out the importance of merchants and clerks to be on the lookout for people who are wont to steal, some of whom are able to pay for what they conceal without fork ing up the dough. Sgt. Fred K. Harrell, Marine Corps recruiter, was a delighted fellow Wed nesday when he called from Norfolk to tell me four local boys had enlisted in the Marine Corps, the first recruits he had gotten from Chowan County in over three years. The quartet includes Ernest L. Nixon, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Nixon, Route 2; Wilbur R. Wheeler, son of Mr. and Mrs. Grover Wheeler, 809 North Oakum Street; James S. Arnold, Jr., son of Mrs. Gladys Arnold, 202 First Street, and Wilbur S. Craig, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Craig of Atlanta, Ga. Young Craig has been living with his grandmother, Mrs. Charlie S. Morgan, 111 Oakum Street. The boys arrived at Parris Island, S. C., Wednesday morning of this week for 12 weeks of training, after which they will be sent to Camp Lejeune for four weeks before being as signed to other bases. Here’s hoping the new Edenton Marines Will like their Ma rine duties and bring honor to them selves x well as Edeaton. - Town Council men wrestled with fig- THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA. THTTRBDAT, JUNE 24, 1965 Town Approves Continued from Page One is needed since the two existing employees spend most of their time with Electric & Water Department affairs, leaving necessary ad ministrative work undone. In the police department, the council approved salary increases for all policemen. The chief’s salary remains the same. Funds were also allocated to replace all old parking meters with new ones. Volunteer firemen, who have been paid a token $1 per call in the past will now get $2 as well as additional money for fires which last a considerable length of time. Gardner called this the most important raise in the entire budget. Regular firemen also were given salary adjustments. Plans were also made to buy a new fire truck at an esti mated cost of $20,000. On a lease-purchase plan, the town budgeted $5,000 for this year to go towards the truck. The street department has a budget of $95,240 with the salary of all employees being adjusted. Included in this budget for new equipment is a street sweeper and stump cutter to enable the depart ment to rid the town of existing eye-sores. At the conclusion of the meeting Mayor John A. Mitchener read a letter of resignation from Mrs. Kath ryn Goodwin from the zon ing board. The resignation was accepted with regrets. Also, the council received a letter from H. McKay Phthisic. Jr., requesting them to repeal the recommenda tion of the zoning board concerning some proDertv he has purchased on US 17 north. ures until about the mid night hour Tuesday night, when they approved the town’s budget for the fiscal year 1965-66. The Coun cilmen considered every item in the budget, which consumed a lot of time and which was sort of disap pointing for J. D. Elliott. J. D. hoped to get through by about 10:30 for a very special reason, but who evgr heard of a town l?udg et being considered and ap proved in a mere two hours and a half? Anyway, the councilmen were able to come up with figures which in the same tax rate as last year—an even buck. o Here’s one, like some other people in Edenton. who has had a lot of com pany lately and expects more. It’s very nice to have company and the Bufflap household enjoys having ’em. However, the watches of some visitors apparently stop, for in some cases it’s usually in the wee sma’ hours that a fellow can “hit the hay,” and daylight arrives when it seems we’ve just gotten to sleep. Anybody else have the same experience? The trouble is that there’s so much to talk about in so little amount of time. o Just in case you do not know it, my calendar lists Monday of this week, June 21, as the beginning of summer. WANTED!
