Bandon Notebook By Maggie B.
By Maggie B. '
Hi, Neighbors! Sunday
after church my hubby and I
went to Hertford with
friends for lunch. As we
were leaving after a
delicious meal, I noticed a
small plaque on the wall
went over to see what it said
and liked it very much.
Share it with me:
“There is a legend that a
man was caught in a bed of
quicksand. Confucius saw
him and remarked There is
evidence men should stay
out of such places.’ Buddha
came by and said, “Let that
be a lesson to the rest of the
world.’ Mohammed said
about the man, ‘Alas, it is
the will of Allah’. The Hindu
said to the man, ‘Cheer up,
friend, you will return to
earth in another form’.
But, when Jesus saw him
He said, ‘Give me your
hand, brother, and I will pull
you out’.
Isn’t that just like our
Savior? He is always there
when we need Him most.
—O—-
“This is the day the Lord
hath made, rejoice and be
glad in it’’! On this Lord’s
Day, it was marvelous to be
able to get up, walk outside
and fill your lungs with
fresh, clean air! Thor, to be
able to see all the beauty of
God’s creation and to hear
the wonderful sounds of
nature caused one to
breathe a prayer of
thanksgiving to our
Heavenly Father for his
countless blessings and for
the great privilege we have
in this country of worshiping
God in the church of our
cholbe.
The fine group gathered at
Bandon Chapel to take
advantage of this privilege
were joyfully welcomed by
Asst. Sunday School Supt.,
Meredith Barden, who
commented that jt was a
real pleasure to see so many
smiling faces. After a report
of those on our Prayer List,
he announced that Prayer
Meeting will be Wednesday
at 7 P.M. in Fellowship Hall
with Dr. Bill leading the
discussion. Choir practice
follows at 8 P.M.
The ladies of the BCWG
will meet Thursday from 10
A.M. until 3 P.M. Work on
projects for the Bazaar will
continue as well as
whatever project in
dividuals have underway.
Come out and join in the fun
and fellowship. Bring your
lunch - we have coffee.
Prayer List: It has been
said that “Prayer is a shield
to the soul, a sacrifice to
God, and a scourge for
Satan.” Please add our
friends to your prayer list.

Riverside Hospital, Rm. 508,
Clyde Morris Blvd.,
Newport News, Va.; Benny
Twine has to go to Norfolk
General HospiUd five days a
week for therapy. Friends
and neighbors take turns in
driving each day. I was
talking to Benny Saturday
night and he told me a man
from New York takes
therapy with him in the
same room. When the New
Yorker asked Benny where
he lived, Benny told him and
also how he got to the
hospital each day. The New
Yorker was absolutely
amazed - almost un
believing! H e commented
that his next door neighbor
didn’t even know that he
was sick! How fortunate we
are to live in a. community
where people DO care about
each other and show it.
When you attend Murray
Nixon’s Annual Fourth of
July Fish Fry, please
remember to make a
donation for Benny. As
always, the Fish Fry is
absolutely free - but - there
will be a Committee present
to receive your donations.
Thank you, Murray, for
permitting the Committee to
use your facilities for such a
good cause. And folks,
please keep Benny and his
family in your prayers;
Ronald Ellingwood is home
now and improving but
needs your prayers; please
remember Brother Bob
Harvey; Marion Phillips;
Len Koraska; Margaret

“Wisdom for Decision
Making”, I Kings 3:3-14,
was the subject for our
adults, powerfully taught by
Wm. F. (Butch) Smith.
God’s people should ask God
for the wisdom they need to
make important decisions.
“Happy Birthday” was
sung, by all in honor of
Raymond Taylor, Margaret
O’Brien, David Lapham and
John Ruff as their con
tributions were placed in
our Birthday Bank.
Dr. W. J. B. Livingston’s
enlightening morning
message was “What To Do
With Sin”, I Sam. 15:1-14,32-
33, with emphasis on vs. 33.
The time had come for
God’s promise to Moses “I
will utterly put out the
remembrance of Amalek
from under Heaven”, to be
fulfilled. The Amalekites
“feared not God” and were
Homemakers’
Meeting Held
On June 20
The Byrd Home Extension
Club met June 20 at the
home of Mrs. Ruth Over
man, hostess with seven
members present.
The President, Mrs. Ruth
Como* gave the devotional
reading from John 3:14-19.
Mrs. Ruby Crawford led in
prayer. Roll was called;
minutes read and approved.
The pledge for the In
ternation Well was paid and
Mrs. Gladys Smith was
appointed to place it in the
proper channel.
The reception for Mrs.
Gladys B. White, retiring
home economist extension
agent, was discussed. A gift
committee was appointed
with Mrs. Ruby Crawford as
chairperson.
The demonstration of
inflation was given by Mrs.
Gladys Smith who urged
everyone to keep financial
records and plan before
purchasing any of die more
expensive items.
The collect was repeated
and social hour followed
with delicious refreshments
served by the hostess.
completely saturated with
sin. Samual told Saul that
the Lord instructed him to
utterly destroy the Ama
lekites and all that they
had. Saul disobeyed God and
spared the life of Agag, the
king, and the best of the
sheep, oxen, the fallings,
lambs and all that was good.
The Lord repented that He
had made Saul king over
Israel. Vs. 33 says “And
Samuel hewed Agag in
pieces before the Lord in
Gilgal”.
This is the only case in
history where God says to
“wipe them out com
pletely". Many people say
“This is not like God. You
just don’t wipe out a whole
race”. This is true. But,
sooner or later, when sin
abounds throughout the land
the people forget God, God
will wipe out the whole
nation. This applies to in
dividuals, too.
There are nations now
living on razor’s edge of
utter annihilation. In 1963,32
Siberian Christians went to
our Moscow Embassy
seeking away out of Russia,
only to be turned away.
They asked that “all
brothers and sisters who
believe in God to help than
by prayer”. So, just a few
among the 215 million keeps
the judgment of God at bay.
God will not allow a nation,
large or small, to continue
when they all have turned
into bandits and are
saturated with sin. Prov.
14:30 tells us “Righteous
ness exaltethi a
nation, but sin is a reproach
to any people”. God
requires obedience from
nations and individuals. We
all have to deal with Agag,
who represents sin. We have
to “hew Agag to pieces
before God” - bring the
Sword of the Lord on him.
Samuel in justice executed
Agag. It is time we all did
the same with our “Agags”
and obey God’s com
mandments.
YEARS SPAN FROM
HORSE AND BUGGY
DAYS TO THE SPACE AGE
- SEEING MEN ON THE
MOON! A North Carolina
native, Mrs. Ada Grant,
celebrated ho- 100th birth
day loth at Little
Lake Santa Fe, Fla.! She is
one of a very few people to
have seen “history in ac
tion” over the years - the
graduation from horse and
buggy to the automobile,
then to the airplane; to hear
music coming out of the air
by means of radio, then
pictures of people and
events when TV was bom
and finally, the landing of a
man of the moon!
Mrs. Grant is very alert
but admits she is not as spry
as she was when younger.
She loves to sing and loves
music. Her favorite hymn is
“The Old Rugged Cross”.
She enjoys fishing and
makes the trip from Florida
to visit her daughter in
Roanoke, Va. every sum
mer. She has never been
hospitalized but once, then
only overnight when she
bnfce her leg many years
ago! And although her
eyesight is too dim for close
handiwork and she is now
getting hard of hearing, she

still has her teeth!
She was born in Conway,
N. C. on June 2, 1879 as Ada
Britt. She married E. Scott
Grant and moved to Putnam
County, Fla. The couple had
two sons and four
daughters. Mr. Grant passed
away in 1937. Mrs. Grant
now has 13 grandchildren, 33
great-grandchildren and 23
great-great grandchildren.
There were about 115
friends and relatives
present, some coming from
North Dakota and New
Jersey. Naturally, North
Carolina was well
represented.
She received many
birthday presents and
congratulations from Sen.
Lawton Chiles, Gov. Bob
Graham and Wm. F. Poe,
mayor of the City of Tampa -
but - the gift she prized the
most was a plaque from
President and Mrs. Jimmy
Carter.
Her advice for a long,
happy life is “don’t worry so
much - do all you can to
solve any problem,
whatever it might be, then,
take it to the Lord and leave
it there”.
Olga and Raymond Taylor
have recently returned from
the celebration. Mrs. Grant
is Olga’s aunt, her father’s
sister, and she was simply
radiant when talking about
her aunt and the very en
joyable time everyone had
in celebrating her 100th
birthday.

There were 11 members of

good to see such a fine

Letter To
The Editor
Regarding your com
ments in The Chowan
Herald “Public. Parade”
column of June 21 con
cerning the rockfish in the
Albemarle Sound, a couple
of very good suggestions
have come to me which I
hope you will pass on:
1. Have the National Fish
Hatchery here in Edenton
stock Albemarle Sound and
its tributaries with
finger lings. They do this as
far away as the Hudson
River in New York.
2. Curtail the taking of
spawning rockfish in the
headwaters of the Roanoke
River in the spring so that
more fish could be hatched.
These suggestions are
certainly not a cure all, but
it is reasonable that they
would help the commercial
as well as sport fishermen
and we would hope that Rep.
Walter B. Jones and the
State Wildlife Commission
could be advised of these
and any other suggestions.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Bill Easterling

Around The Farms
By R.M. Thompson
County Extension Chairman
With all the rains that we
have had, some of the
problems with peanuts are
appearing in the form of
chemical breakdown that
we have depended on to
control pests in the past.
The first sign that we saw
was thrips in peanuts where
Temik, Thimet, Furadan, or
Di-Syston usually controls
it this time of the year. For
this reason, we are
suggesting that you mix an
insecticide with your
leafspot control. These are
Malathion 57EC at 4-5 quart
per acre, or Sevin at the rate
of one pound of actual per
acre, which would be one
quart of liquid. This mixed
with your fungicide wi]l give
you leafspot control and
insect control.
We have also seen break
down of grass and weed
control and we have labeled
Enide 50W at the rate of 4
Ibs.-Acre that can be applied
to the peanuts. This should
be applied before the grass
or weeds emerge as it will
not do much to grass that is
already up.
We have many materials
that are available for
leafspot control and we
certainly urge you to get on
a regular program and try
to control leafspot. We
believe alternating the
cliemicals will help con
siderably. Begin your
control program now and
continue at 14-day intervals
for all materials until 6 or
more applications are
made. The materials and
rates are as follows:

If you are concerned with
southern stem rot and the
history of the fields indicate
that you might have it; we
are suggesting ah ap
plication of Terraclor in the
first two weds of July. One
way to consider this would
be 12% lbs. of 40 per cent
Terraclor dust in July and
12% lbs. of Terraclor dust in
August, or 20 to 25 lbs. of
Terraclor dust in July and
Vitavax applied about the
middle of August.

please contact us at the
