The hospital had put through a “Need” call. She responded. A surgeon in that hospital needed to come home for six weeks on family business. A retired surgeon from New York responded to the call to go. In Nepal, the call went out for someone to supervise the construction of a new hospital.

Also par ticipating in the competition was Miss Martha Harney, left. The BPW Club is chaired by Mrs. Martha Jo Hollawell. From The Bandon Notebook By Maggie B. HI, NEIGHBORS! We were called by Uncle Willie’s friend to come to Brigantine at once if we wanted to see Willie alive. The doctor had told both he and Willie that Willie could go at anytime - and - there was a possibility that his foot would have to be am putated. We left Arrowhead on Tuesday, picked up Willie’s daughter, planning to return on Saturday. But, we were snow-bound in New Jersey with temperatures of 5 to 10 degrees below zero, plus high winds! Seemed almost like a heat wave when we got home late last Tuesday night! As I look back, I believe God had a reason for keeping us there longer than we had planned. It gave us an opportunity to see true friendship in action - to observe the loving care given by a friend to the friend he loved. It brought to mind these words of Edward Clarendon: “Friendship hath the skill and observation of the best physician, the diligence and vigilance of the best nurse, and the tenderness and patience of the best mother.” It also reminded me of just how precious friend ship is. It forced me to realize that if we have a friend we love, it is so important to let he or she know it before it is too late. Share your faith with your friend, your gratitude, encourage each other, rejoice together and cry together. Remember you belong to each other. So far as I’m concerned, friends are far more precious, more to be desired and more valuable than all the world’s wealth. ——O— After the heavy rains Saturday, this Lord’s Day dawned clear and crisp - just right to enter the church of your choice to praise God for His countless blessings. The fine folk assembled at Bandon Chapel for Sunday School were joyfully welcomed by Supt. Meta Maqxi. They were treated to an inspiring lesson by B. Kent Rowley, entitled “Jesus Affirms His Own,” Luke 3:15-22; 7:19-23. Bible truth brought out was that Jesus affirms His people in times of discouragement. Aim was that students would identify reasons for continuing to trust even when disheartened. Prayer List: In my opinion, prayer is the most powerful force in this world today. Please add our friends to your prayer list: After undergoing tests at Norfolk General Hospital, it was determined that George Logan did not need open heart surgery. He needs your prayers; Lola Castleberry is now home recovering from her recent surgery; Mrs. Mattie Nixon is confined to Leigh Memorial Hospital, Chesapeake, Va.; Jack Harvey, nephew of Bobbie Jean Holt, broke his arm in four places, plus other in juries, when he fell about 20 ft. during training exercises with the Norfolk Fire Department recently. He is now home and they were Anally able to put a cast 6h‘ c his arm. He needs your prayer*; please remdihbdr 1 my brother, M. W. Darden; Tom Blanchard, Karen Whitley, Wm. T. Webb of Brigantine, N.J., Jean Johnson, Helen Skinner, Jerry Marlowe, our Nation, its leaders and its people, our missionnaries and our Pastor, Rev. Robert S. Harrell and his family. “Happy Brithday” was sung by all in honor of Elizabeth Dale and “Happy Anniversary” was sung in honor of Butch and Rose Smith as they placed theic contributions in our Birth day Bank. —O— At the Worship Service, the Shepherd of Bandon’s flock, Rev. Robert S. Harrell, brought a powerful message entitled “What Mean These Stones”, John 8:31. Pastor Bob and his wife, Janie, will be visiting their daughter next Sunday. The message will be brought by our home missionary, Stan Turbyfill. Be sure to come out to hear this sprit-filled young man. PLEA FOR HELP - The people of Arrowhead Beach Sun-Division have worked long and hard over the years (not receiving nor expecting any pay for their efforts) to make our community a desirable and lawful place to live. Now, we need help! Outside vandals are craning into our community bent on destruction! During the past two weeks fourteen traffic control signs, our beautiful Sub-Division entrance sign, three road name signs, three parking control signs and six mail boxes have fallen victim to these vandals. The cost of replacing die signs by the Highway Department equals the average salary of a working man for a whole year! Naturally, the people of Arrowhead Beach are irate - they fail to understand this typeo conduct for no reason at all - and - why the vandals would subject themselves to the possibility of fines and Mrs. Birckhead Wins BPW Honors Mrs. Susan Harrell Birck head, an art instructor of Edenton, has been named a Young Career Woman by the Edenton Business and Professional Women’s Club. Mrs. Birckhead, who is employed by the Edenton- Chowan School System, will represent the Edenton BPW Club in a District YCW competition when the district federation holds its annual meeting in April in Plymouth. -&Btr The Pacific Ocean en closes an area larger than all the land surfaces of the earth put together. regarding the identity of the vandals contact A1 Howard, POA Board, President, at 221-4977. Any assistance at all will be greatly ap preciated. Information received will be kept con fidential. —O— Don’t forget our Covered Dish Dinner following the Worship Service Sunday (31st).
