Sessoms, district engineer, State Highway Commission, gave a report on secondary road program for Chowan County.

Evans and unanimously carried that secondary road plan pre sented by W. F. Sessoms be approved. The lease on the build ing that was used for the Brown-Carver Library and OEO office will expire the last of April. It was agreed Students Need S. S. Number To Begin Work Students were reminded today of the importance of having a social security number when applying for summer employment. An employer needs a record of each worker’s so cial security number os that he can report the wages paid to each indivi dual’s social security rec ord and pay the taxes due. The earnings credited to a worker’s social security record are the basis for determining the amount of benefits payable to him and his family when he retires —or earlier, if he should die or become dis abled. If the employer does not have a worker’s social se curity number when he sends in his first report after a worker is hired, he must file an additional re port when he does get it. To avoid extra reports, some employers have adopted the practice of withholding wages until the worker supplies his number. A few 'have de cided to refuse employ ment if the job applicant des not have his social se curity number with him. Students should call or write the social security of fice as early as possible if they do not have a social security number. By get tinng the number early, you will save your future employer time and avoid the risk of being turned down for a job. Office hours of the Elizabeth City Social Se curity office are 8:45 A. M. until 5 P. M., Monday through Friday and 9 A. M. until 12 noon on Satur day. -j anti* iP^wear gasoline PURE FIREBIRD.

C. Griffin, chairman, Agricultural Sta bilization and Conservation County Committee, has an nounced. The referendum applies only to 1970 and will be conducted by mail during the period May 5 through May 9. Ballots may also be delivered by hand to the ASCS county office. The only question to be decided by the balloting is whether upland cotton al lotments may be transfer red during the next year.to other farms by sale or lease. Such transfers may be made by sale or lease for a period of time agreed on by the parties involved. In no case may transfers be made outside the state. An affirmative vote by at least two-thirds of the county’s cotton farmers who vote will permit such transfers for the upland cotton crop during 1970. Cotton allotment trans fers were provided by the 1965 Food and Agriculture Act, and past referenda on] this question have applied to growing seasons through 1969. The Congress voted to extend the act to cover the 1970 crop year, end the current referendum will decide the question of transfers for the single year 1970. 'Mr. Griffin said, “We hope all producers will vote. The vote should be fully representative of the wishes of cotton farmers in our county." The chairman said that copies of the ballot are be ing sent to all cotton pro with the Town of Edenton in installing three or four new light fixtures on the Court House Green.

WATCH YOUR STEP By MARY LIZZIE LAME There has been discoveries and great inventions, too, neve £ made anything that equals me and you! xr I J?}? t 3" 1 , h ® s “f.fe doi >t mean so much, you know, It will only last while we axe on this earth below. If for all this world we had a deed. Six feet of ground is all we’ll need; And regardless how much people fuss Our bodies must go back to dust. I you’ve heard this saying And it certainly is very true; There are no pockets in the shrouc-. Thats made for me and you. People rush all through this life As though they expected to live it twice. And the first thing they know The tempter has them on the go. We must stop along the way And be considerate of what we say; We should rededicate our life every day. And ask the Saviour to have His way. We are so small and God so great. And to His Gospel we should partake; Stay on the alert all the time, We know not the hour that Christ will come. You must live by His Word And ignore what you’ve heard; There’s only one true and living God, And He created us from the sod. We must practice what we preach, And live by what we teach; If by His Word you don’t abide, You’ll be sorry by and by. Popularity is not what we strive to gain; Just teach the Bible in Jesus name; If we don’t do according to His call. He’ll cut us down before we’re old. And Satan will pretend he’s king; You can hardly resist the swing; And there are so many things And all the temptations that pleasure brings. We were put here for a cause, And the Saviour only knows; There are failures and despair And our burdens are hard to bear. When we drift so far away, Jesus pleads with us eaoh day; Come unto the Good Shepherd now. You can hear Him calling loud. This life is very short, you know, And on into eternity we must go; We know the road to destruction is wide. So let’s determine how we spend our time. it’s L. P.
