London, Pastor The reason for America’s strength and survival across two hundred years of turmoil and challenge has been trusting not in ourselves, our might, or our wisdom, but in the mercy, guidance, and help of Almighty God. Approximately one hundred and ten years ago the members and friends of this congregation erected and dedicated the building in which we now worship. During the past two or three years, under the guidance and direction of Almighty God our Heavenly Father, we have labored together to achieve the Office Lists Precautions For Tobacco Marketing Market Flue- I'ured Tobacco season for flue-cured tobacco will be underway very soon. As farmers market their 1976 crop, there are certain precautions they need to observe to assure that their tobacco is properly identified. When farmers use their marketing cards correctly, they can save time, trouble, and possible payment of penalties. When the marketing card is issued to the farmer, we suggest that he use the following simple guides to assure proper handling of his tobacco: 1. Upon receiving the card examine it carefully to see that it is correct. Check to see that the name, address, f arm serial number, and quota are correct. (The poundage will be 110 per cent of the 1976 quota adjusted for under of overmarketing in previous years.) 2. Take the card to the warehouse when tobacco is to be weighed in. The cards is to be left with the warehouseman until the check is issued to the farmer. Do not leave the card at the warehouse or with a trucker between sales. 3. After each sale check the card carefully to see that the entries for that sale agree with the sale bill. Also check to see that the balance THE EDENTON - CHOWAN BOARD OF EDUCATION WILL HOLD ITS REGULAR MONTH LY MEETING TUESDAY. JULY 6. 1976, AT 8:00 P. M.

Report any error immediately _£ to t-* the marketing recorder at the warehouse or to the county ASCS office. The farmer is subject to penalty on any on any tobacco sold over 110 per cent of his quota. It is his responsibility to see that any error is corrected so that his balance is correct. 5. Do not allow tobacco from another farm to be sold on your card. This will result in a penalty to you. By following the above suggestions, a farmer can be sure of getting his tobacco marketed properly and be assured of not being subject to penalties. Any farmer with further questions is invited to visit his local ASCS office. Changes In Reporting Cotton Acreage Listed below are changes* in reporting cotton acreage for 1976: 1. Farm operators must list cotton tenants and the percentage share of the planted acres. 2. Farms which have an effective allotment, but didn’t plant cotton, still need to report a “zero” acreage. If a zero acreage is not reported, the yield will be considered “zero” in determining the 1977 payment yield. IMPORTANT REMINDERS: l.

All of us have a bell somewhere around the house • farm bell, dinner bell, etc. Break it out and no matter where you are join with our countrymen across the nation by joyously ring ing your bell at precisely 2 P.M. on July 4. That was the day and hour 200 years ago when Delcaration of Independence was proclaimed in Philadelphia. As the sound of the bells begin to fade, remember WHY our country was founded - let’s rededicate ourselves to God, equality, justice and peace for all. Pray that God will heal our nation as He has promised in,II Chronicles 7:14 “If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and HEAL THEIR LAND.” “A little child shall lead them”, said Jesus. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Gaki have taken this seriously. In addition to their adopted son, Emil, on Friday they took into their home and hearts two more little boys, one six and one eight years old. After a shopping spree Saturday, they were all at Sunday School Sunday morning, spic and span and beaming! Tom and Dot Gaki are to be commended for their unselfish devotion to all children and to God. Each Sunday morning they faithfully make the rounds in their Van and pick up any child desiring to attend Sunday School and then return them to their respective homes. Sunday morning the beautiful waters of Chowan River were slick as* glass, squirrells were scurrying across the yard, up and down trees, birds were shirping and busily freslf and invigorating! A day to thank God for the privilege of being able to«nter His house and feed on His Holy Word. Following the opening exercises at Sunday School, Asst. Supt. Louise Water reviewed our prayer list and reported that Butch Smith was steadily improving and hopes to be back with us soon; Mrs. Katie Byrum is home now; Henry G. Quinn is in Norfolk General Hospital and Lois Valentine is in DePaul Hospital, Norfolk. Please remember these friends in prayer and add Marvin Lee Bunch, confined to Portsmouth General Hospital, Room 3330. Marvin is the son of Mrs. “Willie” Bunch of Rocky Hock. Also, remember our missionnairies, Nita Pride, David and Linda Smith and our beloved pastor, Dr. Bill. Mrs. Waters reported that the arrowhead Beach POA has planned a “family” picnic on Monday, July sth. Entertainment has been planned for all age groups. The games begin at 10 A.M.

THE MEETING WILL BE HILO AT 9 A. M. ON MONDAY, JULY 12, 1978, IN THE CONFER ENCE ROOM ON Tiff FOURTH FLOOR OF THE COUNTY OFFICE BUILDING. MRS. BERTHA B. BUNCH CLERK . picnic lunch for the family. 'Die food will be combined, with PQA furnishing drinks and ice - then all will eat and fellowship together. —4V- Bible Study will be Tuesday'at 7:30 P.M. in Fellowship Hall with Dr. Bill leading the discussion. Everyone is invited. The BCWG meets from 11 A.M. to 3 P.M. on Thursday. Come on out and see what’s going on. Holy Communion will be observed Sunday, July 4th. Our Junior Highs, taught by Mrs. Betth Perry, has as their subject, “Balancing The Load”, based on Isaiah 55:3, Matt. 11:28-30; I Thess. 5:16-18. Through personal prayer, the Christian invites God to help him meet life’s problems with confidence. Satan laughs at our failings, scoffs at our wisdom but trembles when we pray. Mrs. Annie Cooke’s Junior. Class has as their subject “Waiting For An Answer”, Ezra. 1:6. Aim was that the pupil will recognize a time of waiting as a necessary part of the answer to some prayers. The topic for the Adults, taught by Mrs. Margaret Bunting, was “The Church and Civil Authorities, scripture Romans 13:1-10. Aim was that adult Christians will choose to act in conscientious obedience to civil authority unless so acting would require disobedience to God, in which case they will choose to obey God. First, we submit in love and faith to God - The Supreme Authority - then, we submit to the lesser authorities He has ordained. Dr. W. J. B. Livingston’s enlightening message was entitled “Whither Shall I Flee”, based on Psalm 139:1-24. Firs, there is a time for flight. Abraham was told by God to “flee Jcaiß Ur"i4^puftfe.,tp.tJhf ; people <rf the Babylonians; God instructed Joseph to “Arise, take the young child and flee”. We are to flee from all things that would destroy us. James 4 tells us “to resist the devil and he will flee from you”. Second, There is a time not to flee. Following WW 11, we were at the pinnacle of strength, we could have controlled the whole world but instead we voluntarily stepped down and fulfilled our Biblical mission by feeding our enemy and helping them to rebuild. “Therefore it thine enemy hunger, feed him. If he thirst, give him drink”. Are we now at the point where we want to run away? We have 3 dimensions - past, present and future. Let us face up to our responsibilities now. The beautiful story of Esther was told. When Mordecai told Esther that the King had ordered the destruction of all Jews and asked that she intercede in their behalf, Queen Esther was fearful for you did not enter the presence of the King unbidden.. Mordecai asked “Who knows but whether thou art come to the Kingdom for such a time as this?”. The Queen interceded in behalf of her, people and they were saved; Esther should be a symbol to all of us that when God speaks to us, we should obey. Jesus did not flee the cross - He died for our sins. Good seeks us continually but we resist. However, if we continue to His word we shall know the truth and the truth shall set youfree. Flee away from Self - flee to God. He is our Savious and friend, our Judge and Ruler. Funds-Use Report Is Published A report summarizing how the state plans to spend $27.8-million in federal revenue sharing funds allocated for the 1976-77 fiscal year was published in the June 24 edition of the Raleigh News and Observer. The state and Local Fiscal Assistance Act of 1972, which established federal revenue sharing, requires that each government receiving revenue sharing funds submit “planned use report” to the Secretary of the Treasury for each entitlement period. The law also requires that the state publish the entire report in an area newspaper of general circulation nd advise other news media of the publication. The $27,815,603 North Carolina will receive is for the period from July 1 to December 31, when the present revenue sharing act expires. The state plans to spend a higher proportion of these funds on operating expenditures than it has in recent years, reflecting a slowdown of capital improvement spending due, in part, to the recession. Os the total, $21,112,043 will be utilized in operating expenses of public education: $15,622,912 for the maintenance of school bqßesE, J .»SBSkM7 , for: ttir purchase of repiac«hienr buses, and $1,900,084 for textbooks.
