Thursday , June 26. 1080 Bandon Notebook : By Maggie B. HI, NEIGHBORS! My weekend was busy! On Saturday, my niece was married in Port Norfolk Baptist Church, Portsmouth, Va. It was a lovely wedding but to me, the most beautiful part was the glory of their smiles for each other after they were pronounced man and wife. Then, Sunday afternoon, we attended the 50th Wedding Anniversary of some long time friends. On this occasion, they were re-married. After the ceremony, there was a fabulous reception in their honor. Among the guests present was one of their grandsons, about 26 years of age. In 1973, he was severly “Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain, laughter and pleasure, teardrops and pain, All days can’t be bright, but it’s certainly true, there was never a cloud the sun didn’t shine through - So just keep on smiling whatever betide you, secure in the knowledge God is always beside you, And you’ll find when you smile your day will be brighter and all of your burdens will seem so much lighter - For each time you smile you will And it is true Somebody, Somewhere will Smile Back At You, And nothing on earth can make life more worthwhile than the sunshine and warmth of a BEAUTIFUL SMILE.’’ —O— ‘ On this glorious Lord’s Day, it was deligitful to be able to fill one’s lungs with fresh, clean air and to see and hear the joyful sounds of nature everywhere. A perfect day for entering God’s House to give thanks for our countless blessings. Supt. B.

Injured in a head-on collision with a truck, killing his girlfriend and causing him to spend many months in a hospital. Today, he is totally blind - but - the one point that stands out in my memory while talking to him was the glory of his smile when he told me “six years ago I found Jesus and now I’m a born-again Christian”. He believes that God gave him back his life because He has a job for him to do - and - he says, “it might be to help others find the Savin'”. Yesterday, I was reading some of Helen Steiner Rice's works and came across this verse entitled "There’s Sunshine In A Smile”. Share it with me: Wm. F. Smith, his lovely wife, Rose, and their granddaughter, with us again following three weeks of vacation. They were really missed! Supt. Rowley announced that Prayer Meeting will be at 7 P.M.

The Nee Restoration Details Are Discussed The second annual summer vacation issue of “Tar Heel” magazine, published this week, details the history and resotration of the Hope Plantation, four miles outside of Windsor in Bertie County. Accompanying the article are color photos by prize winning amateur photographer Walter Faulkner. Owned by Gov. David Stone, the original con struction was completed about 1803. The Historic Hope Foundation purchased the house and surrounding 18 acres in 1965. After a period of extensive restoration, the property was entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, and in 1972, it was opened to the public. The house combines elements from the early Georgian style with those from the Federal period. Born an aristocrat, David Stone was a member of the General Assembly before the age of 21, a superior court judge at 25 and governor of North Carolina at 38. He died at the age of 48. Several articles of fur niture and many other artifacts are original to the mansion. “Tar Heel” is a state-wide consumer magazine published monthly by the New East Corporation, Greenville, North Carolina. Regular monthly features are Tar Heel Folkways, gardening, book reviews, recipes and restaurant reviews, calendar of events, and the “Tar Heel Soap box”.
