G TtHwta | To Mrs. She came from the land of “The Carolina Moon”, Beaver Dam and “Just below Hertford”. She was a living page from a beautiful book—an open one. The spirit and soul of Mrs. Belle Griffin will flit around the streets of Edenton and Heaven as surely as the sun sinks in the west. Three of the Bob Boyce children were made richer by being taught by her and when the younger one, Eleanor Ruth, was sent to Miss Lena Jones’ room she quickly said, "I want to go to Mia. Griffin’s room”! Their father loved her dearly and would go there day or night to rectify an electrical malfunction in her house- Once he took Robert, Jr., with him—her student at the time and his helper-of sorts- to repair a drop cord in the upper hallway. Now the eider Bob needed to get to a fuse box that had been inprudently installed in an upstairs clqset. Mrs. Griffin objected! She said, “Come back tomorrow Bob”, but he said* “No, I have to do it now’’. Where upon he proceeded to open the closet door and out came Pandora and all sorts of boxes! (You know about the small closet space in old houses). Well the light was STARTS FRIDAY!

DAVIS JEWELERS repaired, the fuse replaced and Mrs. Griffin was left with Pandora and the boxes. The next day she was telling the class what a clever man Robert, Jr.’s father was and how helpful. What Robert, Jr. said to the class was; “Man - you should have seen the mess in Mrs. Griffins closet”! Later on that same year, her son, Lloyd, Jr., came by the class room to say hello to his mother, he was on his way back to college after a fishing trip to Nags Head (I think) and must have looked a sight,' for when Mrs. Griffin told the children where he had come from Robert, Jr., said “must have been gone a long time”! I share with you these gems of growing, sharing, caring. These she gave with love abounding and by so doing has made many lives a little brighter by our being able to take from our -M- India’s Taj Mahal, one of the world's most beautiful buildings, took 20 years these little things that mean a lot. The first Colonial Costume to be worn in Edenton was fashioned for me by Mrs. Griffin and to my belief the most beautiful one ever. She not only fash ioned and made the dress, but selected the beautiful old rose and foral material and brought it home by bus from Raleigh. We talked last -fall about our writing. We read each others work and we visited my cousin Varina. We went for a long ride in my car and we remembered “when”. The heritage and love she left is a shining Tight and another mile on my happy road.

You normally associate gold crowns with kings or queens. But the average person can have a gold crown also - not on his head but in his mouth. And it will probably be a lot more practical than the king’s head piece. Cast gold crowns cover the cusps (chewing surface) of back teeth entirely as well as three or more other surfaces. They fit over the remaining portion of a prepared tooth. Crowns are used to restore proper tooth form and contours for the correct biting function yirhen much of the tooth is extensively damaged. Gold is an ideal restorative material for use' in reforming the shape and function of a tooth.

There are other reasons for the use of gold as well as long-life. Gold can provide maximum resistance against the forces of chewing on tooth sur faces. Fluids in the mouth cannot affect gold. Gold will not shrink or expand once it was been cemented into the prepared surface. Breakage of the restoration is less likely.
