A LIFT FOR TODAY I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.—Psadm 122:1. Worship in the house of God, in an at mosphere saturated with God’s love, with his followers in unity with the Divine Spirit—this is essential to spiritual growth. We thank Thee, our Father, for our churches. May we enter them with love in our hearts, assurance of blessings, and a resolve to bring others to know Thee. No Dictionary Immediately following reports that So viet-built Migs had attacked some of our own planes over North Vietnam, some tough-sounding statements were issued by Secretary of State Dean Rusk saying thal enemy planes attacking ours would bf allowed ,; no sanctuary” from pursuit and counterattack even if they flew in re treat across the border into Red China or perchance, might be based there. Do mestic friends of or raised a big howl about that. ancTquickly received assurances from Mr. Rusk’s Department that none of our naughty and perhaps quick-tempered airmen would be allowed on their own, or by order of those gen erals or admirals who “command” our forces in Vietnam, to pursue those fun loving Mig pilots into Red China and try to shoot them down. No sir, it’s all up to commander-in-chief Lyndon Johnson (on the advice, of course, of those infalli ble civilian advisors in the Pentagon and State Department) to decide if and when one of our pilots might actually be al lowed to pursue his attackers if they cross that line into Red China. This isn't the first time Mr. Rusk has made headlines with a>- i£ flo sanctuary” statement. Only a few months ago he was quoted as saying there would be no sanctuary for the enemy “anywhere”, which was widely interpreted to mean our air forces would strike into Cam bodia or any other oapder regions if it became evident that su |)[)iies^andlroops were being harbored there to support the Viet Cong. Vet all along, a large area around and between Hanoi and the port, city of Haiphong has remained immune from attack by our fighting men. This despite the fact that the State Depart ment’s "White Paper” on Vietnam issued last year specifically 4 states that the “cam paign of terror and armed attack” in South Vietnam is “inspired, directed, sup plied and controlled by the Communist regime in Hanoi.” Perhaps Mr. Rusk and possibly those who accept without question his occasion rowgh-and-tough-sounding statements are in need of a dictionary so they can learn the meaning of the-words he uses. Our copy of same tells us that, insofar as it would apply in Phis instance, sanctuary means "a place of refuge, asylum; hence, immunity.” And ; that, quite obviously, is what the enemy still has in many in stances. as far as our men wht must ac tually face them in combat are concerned. Farni Safety Week , National P arm Safety Week co-spon sored by the National Safety Council and ftie V. S. Department of Agriculture will, be observed July 24-30 this year, by Presidential proclamation. “Safety is Victory Over .Accidents” will be the theme of the Week, and its purpose will be to put a new awareness of safety pro cedures in the minds of the millions of people on American farms. Accidents kill more than 8,000 farm residents each year and injure an additional 700,000. This year, emphasis will be on tractor safety and promotion of the SMV em blem Slow-Moviag Vehicle. It is a triangular emblem, highly visable within 500 feet, day or night T and is intended to be used on equipmenl traveling 25 per hour or less. Evelty operator of farm equipment should contact his county) agent, or the Farm Department of the National Safety Council, 425 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60611 to secure informitidn cm where to buy his SMV emblem. Practicing safety dur ing National Farm Safety Week can cre ate lifesaving habits throughout the year. Jdeard &O een “By Btiff’ my memory serves me right, I can not recall in the 43 years I’ve been in Edenton any longer spell of such ex tremely hot weather as we’ve had now for a few weeks and little signs of any let-up as this is written. Nor can I re member any summer that we’ve had as many vicious yellow flies to torment us. £ut somebody was telling me that the yellow flies will leave after the first rain n August. Then another said they will leave after the last rain in'August. How ever, if it is the first or last rain in Au gust,'the yellow flies surely have had their day. Os course, there’s some sorts of concoctions on the market which are supposed to keep ’em off a person. But sure as snuff, I’m just about convinced hat the .stuff stirs ’em up and makes hem mad so that their bites are more frequent and more severe. Anyway, it vill be a happy day when the yellow flies erminate their visit. o A very welcome visitor to The Herald office Tuesday was six-year-old Sirius Amanda Bunch, daughter of Mr. an Mrs. George Bunch, Jr., of the Rocky lock section. Sirius brought me tw( ugar baby melons and a cantaloupe They came from an acre of land which ler daddy reserves every year for the ittle girl and gives her all of the money eceived from what is raised on the acre. . asked her what she was going to dc vith the money and she said she was put ing it in a bank so that she will have "nough to go to college after she gradu ites from high school. We’ve already ?aten the cantaloupe and it was just a. 1 ;weet as the little girl who wanted me tc aste what has come from her acre of and. And here’s hoping that when the ime comes for her to go to college, she vill have enough to foot the bill. There’; ill too few youngsters who think that far \head to get an education, but rather nost of ’em depend on Pop to “please •emit.” Mrs. Ida Mae Roberson has been alj het up for some time in expectation of a ew weeks visit of her four grandchildren, who live with relatives in Charleston, S. C. The quartet arrived Saturday and it was a real homecoming in the house ad joining my backyard. However, the joy suddenly came to an end when Neighbor Roberson suddenly became ill and was taken Monday to Memorial Hospital in Chapel Hill for observation due to a heart condition. In her absence, the youngsters are staying with friends in Edenton. Another grandchild, Miss Ida Smyer, who now lives and works in New \ ork, arrived Sunday night despite the handicap in air travel. She and the four Garwood children went to Chapel Hill \\ ednesday to see their grandmother, and though no word has been received since Mrs. Roberson entered the hospital, here’s hoping she will soon be back home so we can chat and joke with her “over the back fence”. o Dwight Flanagan, son of Mr. and Mrs. I at Idanagan, has hung up an enviable record with the Ahoskie American Legion baseball team. Dwight wound up the season with a healthy batting average of .360, one of the best in the league, which also included teams from Raleigh, Rocky Mount and Fuquay-Varina. Dwight will enroll at East Carolina College on a foot ball scholarship, and here’s hoping we’ll be hearing more about his athletic prowess. • o It s vacation time at The Herald office, so that each week lately one of the crew has been missing and causes the others to do a bit of extra work. This week Wilborne Harrell is “loafing” at his home A Last week William Reeves and his family' spent a week in New York, but William says he spent about half the time trying to find the Brooklyn Bridge and never did find it. He said he saw a number of bridges, but he didn’t know which was the Brooklyn Bridge. tVell, maybe some body did finally seif the thing. Next week yours truly is scheduled to spend the week at the beach, so here’s hoping the mosquitoes and storms are also on J ■vacation. 1 | ’ .A'' "* - ■■■ ‘ii. il O .■ jjgi > The scythe of time is continually cut- ] ting the brittle thread Os life and last | week life was snuffed from my friend | Beanie White.

That was back in the days when it was not so very easy to make friends in Ednton, but since then and through the years Beanie md I were very friendly.

And such sudden de mise from the scene makes one wonder who will be next. 0- Preacher Shoaf last Sun day preached a sermon on he sixth Commandment— Thou shalt not kill. But vhile he was preaching some yellow flies must have gotten religion and were flying around some of the pews. The preacher said “thou shalt not kill,” but there were some in the con gregation who didn’t care what he said—they were bent on killing any yellow fly they could get a whack at. The sixth Command ment does not apply to yel low flies or else I’m a mur derer, for I’ll kill as many as I can. JUR CONMIKMUR SALE!
