Bandon Notebook: No Race Like Home
By Maggie B.
Hi, Neighbors! It’s so
good to be home - no matter
how humble, there is simply
no {dace like home! We had
no trouble with either the
truck or the trailer and
didn’t even see an accident
coming or going! We missed
the “big snow’’ and
thoroughly enjoyed visiting
our friends and relatives in
Florida. The races were
exciting, the scenery was
lovely - but - when we
reached the Chowan River
Bridge on the way home, I
breathed a prayer of
thanksgiving. In my
opinion, the Chowan River is
one of the most beautiful
rivers I’ve seen anywhere,
especially when the sun is
setting and the sky and
waters are -ablaze with
fantastic color. We didn’t
see anything to equal it.
We missed all the fine folk
here too. We are so for
tunate to be living in an area
where neighbors are really
“Since it has been my lot to find at every parting of the road
The helping hand of comrade kind to help me with my heavy
load.
And since I have no gold to give and love alone must make
amends.
My humble prayer is, while I live “God make me worthy of
my friends”.
Anon.
On this delightful Lord’s
Day, it was a joy just to
breathe in deeply of the
fresh, clean air, look out
over the calm waters of the
mighty Chowan and quietly
say a prayer of thanksgiving
to our Heavenly Father for
His countless blessings and
for the privilege of being
able to openly worship Him
in the church of our choice.
The fine fine folk gathered
at Bandon Chapel for a
spiritual refueling were
warmly welcomed by
Sunday School Asst. Supt.,
Hugh Peters. He reported

people don’t even know
there neighbors and coild
care less what happens to
them. During the “big
snow” here, Marvin Evans,
who lives on Rarer Rd., a
farmer and a member of
“The Rocky Hock Boys”,
was so concerned about the
residents of Arrowhead
Beach that he cleared a path
from , River Rd. into
Arrowhead Beach, down the
main streets, and some
driveways so that people
could get out in case of
emergency. Marvin used his
equipment and spent a
whole day of his time doing
this! Many “Thanks”
Marvin, you are indeed a
“Good Neighbor”.
I’d also like to express my
appreciation to Butch Smith
for taking my place at the
organ on Sundays. As I was

Operation Overcharge
WASHINGTON -
Operation Overcharge’s
effort to gain parity in
electric rates for the people
of Northeastern North
Carolina has now entered its
third phase, its leader
declared Tuesday.
“With the announcement
Friday of an investigation of
Vepco by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Com
mission, we have ended the
second phase of our efforts
and have moved into the
third,” J. Larkin Little of
Greenville, Overcharge
Chairman, explained.
Little said he was quite
surprised that FERC’s
announcement came while
his group was in
Washington, D.C., meeting
on strategy with other
organizations and agencies
that have joined in the
Overcharge battle. “That
makes it sound like political
manuevering,” Little said.
“Well, it’s the first time that
FERC has ever ordered an
investigation of a power
company, and we recognize
it as a major milestone,”
Little said. “But,” he said,
“there are some things we
don’t like about the par
ticullar investigation or
dered,” he pointed out.
Under FERC’s plan, Little
pointed out, a non-public
investigation would be
conducted by the en
forcement arm of the
commission, presented to
the commission, and then
FERC would decide whe
ther to go public. It
would take about eight
months to complete the
preliminary investigation.
“We think nothing needs
the light of public sunshine
more than the management
and operations of Vepco,
and we’d like to see the
investigation public from
the start,” Little said. “We
don’t believe FERC’s en
forcement staff is equipped
to conduct the kind of in
vestigation that’s needed
and, from that standpoint,

“One Who Listens”, John
3:1-10; 7, was the topic far
our adults, lovingly taught
by Wm. F. (Butch) Smith.
The importance of being
“born again” was stressed.
You have to be born of the
spirit as well as of the flesh;
it is a transformation of
your life style by turning
your back on sin and ac
cepting Jesus Christ as Lord
and Savior.
A potted plant called
“Crown of Thorns” graced
our altar on this Lord’s Day
courtesy of Mr. and Mrs.
Hugh Peters. It is especially
appropriate during this
Lenten season as it was
from a similar plant that the
Crown of Thorns was
fashioned which was worn
by Jesus
we’d also like to see a public
investigation in which
other agencies could par
ticipate,” he said.
“We think we can en
courage FERC to go public
with its investigation and
we’re going to work toward
that end, and I hope other
agencies and organizations
involved with us will help in
that effort,” Little said

portant to European
commerce that it was
