FS! v pip * ~ JZettet “To “the 4jetald £ditot I would like to express my feelings toward the people who are in charge of the windrow burning in Rocky Hock between the Rocky Hock Baptist Church and W. E. Smith Store. We have been putting up with this smoke for the past several months. It is not only dangerous for people traveling on the highways, but it is also hazardous to the health of several people in the area. I, myself, do not have any type of lung problems that is known, but there are several people with asthma and other breathing problems that this is really having a strong effect on. For one instance, there is a ten month old baby that lives in the middle of all this smoke. He was bom with underdeveloped lungs and lived seven months in the hospital. Now that his parents have the opportunity to bring him home to watch him grow, take care of him and to raise their son, all of this smoke is doing nothing to help this situation. I understand that people have to clear land, but I think these people should find another way to clear this land or at least put it off for a while until the child’s lungs have developed enough to handle this smoke infested area. It would be a terrible situation for someone to deal with if something was to happen to this child or someone else because of this smoke. I am speaking of the ones in charge of the burning.

Holmes High School’s 1981- 82 Teacher of The Year (TOY). In making this an nouncement recently, Principal Rob Boyce described Mrs. Cherry’s selection as “most special and unique”, in that students made the final decision for Holmes School. A tie among the Holmes faculty’s nominations for this honor eventually led to the members of the senior class being asked to cast the winning votes. “The entire faculty and student body are most happy with Mrs. Cherry’s being named to this honor,” Boyce said. “We feel,” Boyce added, “that she represents Holmes well as the finest in teaching as a profession.” As Holmes High School’s TOY, Mrs. Cherry will represent the school as a nominee in the process of selecting the Edenton- Chowan System’s Teacher of The Year. All schools and taachers within the system are given the opportunity to choose teacher-nominees for competition. A Selection Committee, composed of school person- Page 3-A nel, parents, lay citizenry and media representation, will meet in late November to interview local nominees before naming the Teacher of The Year for Edenton- Chowan Schools. This person will be the system’s representative nominee for the Regional TOY and, as such, a possible candidate for State TOY. Mrs. Cherry, an English teacher at John A. Holmes High School since 1973, is most active in school, church and community activities. She is the wife of Robert Cherry and mother of Alan and Johnny Perry and Sheila Cherry. Safety ‘Tip s Long before the electric iron was ever imagined, women heated heavy hand irons on top of a fire or over a stove top. If they were lucky, they could press an entire garment before having to reheat it. Although the iron has certainly changed in ap pearance and effectiveness through the years, it still poses some hazards if not properly used. The most common hazard is pulling and tripping on the cord. Many times irons are used in exposed trattic areas thus the cord is more ac cessible to children. Trip ping over the cord or pulling on it might cause a hot iron to fall and result in a serious burn. Another common accident is knocking over the iron. The resting bases on some irons are more unstable than others, and a slight push will tip them over. If the iron, does tip over, it can spray hot water and causp serious burns. How can these potential dangers be avoided? --Chose an iron that has a movable cord which can accomodate both a right handed and left-handed user. --Remember to unplug the iron and place it out of reach of children even if you leave for only a few minutes. -Use a sturdy ironing board and place it close to a wall and the outlet where it is plugged in. -Unplug a steam iron when filling it with water. You can get an electric shock if the water spills on the iron’s live electrical components. -After you have finished ironing, coil the cord and place the iron out of reach of children to cool. 1 t• soft latex foam I | • absorbs bumps, jolts y / * thin, cool, comfortable VuX • men s, women's sizes jgggiAir^PiM^nsoles nJS *l9 Mere and more people are living well today, and for this we can be thankful.

These and the like considerations moved not only every good man privately to enter into examination with his own estate between God and his conscience and so to humiliation before Him, but also to humble our selves together before the Lord by Fasting and prayer.
