Page 10-A "Shrine Paper Sale” Chowan County Shriners will be out this week par ticipating in the Fourth Annual Sudan Temple “Shrine Paper Sale” ac cording to Larry Swindell, President of the Chowan County Shrine Club. The local Shriners are offering their newspapers to raise funds to operate their Shriners Hospitals for children. According to Sudan Temple Potentate, James W. Brewer, it took in excess of 76 Million dollars to operate the 18 orthopedic Hospitals and three Burns Institutes in 1981. More than a quarter million children have benefited from these Hospitals since they were begun in 1922 by the Shriners. No government funds support any of these Hospitals, and 100 per cent of the funds raised by the Shriners for their Hospitals go for that purpose. The newspapers will tell the story of the Shriners and their Hospitals. It will feature stories by patients and former patients and their parents. It will have photographs of these patients and from the Hospitals. The Hospitals stand ready to take any child, regardless of race, color, or creed, who need help. Applications for admission to the Hospitals and Burns Institutes may be obtained from any Shriner or Sudan Temple, P. 0. Drawer 490, New Bern, North Carolina 28560. Children from North Carolina are sent to the Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children in Greenville, South Carolina, or the Shriners Burns In stitute in Cincinnati, Ohio. President Swindell pointed out that the average cost for an orthopedic patient is about $2500.00 and for a Burns patient about $22,000.00, excluding physicians’ fees. Not one cent has ever been charged for treatment at the Shriners Hospitals. The , » I Now At Hoke Motor Corp.

Letter To The Editor - Space Escapfj To the Editor: As most concerned Edenton citizens are aware, the fate of the Space Escape, a video en tertainment business located in the downtown area, was recently the subject of considerable discussion at the regular meeting of' the Town Council. As co-owners of the Space Escape, we were advised by town officials to apply for a special use pefmit which would allow our business to temporarily continue operation until the Town Council votes in May on the issue of zoning of video entertainment in Edenton. We are most pleased and encouraged by the support expressed in behalf of the Space Escape at this meeting. We think it fair to say that the consensus of opinion was most definitely in favor of allowing our business to continue at its present location. Never theless, the Town Council saw fit to deny us such a permit. For all the support vocalized at that meeting and to us personally over the past month, we wish to express our appreciation. We began operating in October with the intention of providing wholesome en tertainment for Edenton’s young people. We have never experienced any behavioral problems, and the few criticisms we have received have dealt with very minor problems, which can be easily remedied. It has always been our in tention to operate a clean, upbeat business. Drinking and smoking have never been permitted, and we have never experienced any problems with the young folks themselves. They have expressed their pleasure at having a place to go which they could enjoy and to which their parents had no objections. If the results of our venture had been anything but positive, we would have been the first ones to entertain thoughts of closing ourselves down. In light of all of this, we find it most frustrating to now find ourselves in the position of having to defend ourselves. For what reason? The citizens themselves have obviously let then wishes be known, and yet it seems not to matter to those elected by them. The fate of the Space Escape ap parently rests in the hands of the Town Council rather than the majority of the people.
