Thursday. February 24. 1963 Canadian Flags To Fly: Governor Proclaims Annual "Canadian Days” RALElGH—Canadian flags will fly high over the Tar Heel State again this year from / February 15 through March 31 during the third annual observance of “Canadian “ Days,’’ which has been pro claimed by Governor Jim Hunt. More than 20 cities and towns across the state this year will be offering discounts for accommodations, food and other attractions such as * golf. “This period has been designated as a means of say ; ing ‘thank you’ to the nearly ! 200,000 Canadians who visit | the Tar Heel State each year,” said Hunt. “It also is a way of saying ‘welcome’ to additional Canadian visitors. “We have always enjoyed a good neighbor relationship with Canadians,” he added. “Our Canadian Days celebra tion is away to show our ap preciation to our friends from the north.” Hunt noted that more than 30 Canadian companies operate facilities in North Carolina and each has been a good corporate citizen of the state. Travel incentives to Cana dians this year vary from a 25 per cent discount at Fontana f Village to accepting Canadian money at par to a 10 percent discount in most areas, ex plained Charles Heatherly, ' director of the Travel and Tourism Division. “The state’s travel industry has shown a great deal of en thusiasm toward this year’s * Canadian Days observance,” Heatherly said. “With that and the warm hospitality .. which North Carolinians pro vide to visitors, we should ’ show some extensive gains in the numbers of Canadians who visit the state in the next couple of years.” A 38-member group of North Carolinians carried the North Carolina story to Nat.

The objective of North Carolina's increased promo tion and advertising effort in Letter to The Editor: North Carolinians Have Chance To Speak Out On Arms Race Dear Sir: Last week we North Caroli nians gained the opportunity to express our personal feel ings to our state legislators on the most horrendous problem we have ever faced as a state or a nation-that is the immi nent threat of nuclear war, by accident, miscalculation,. or design. We now have the chance to say “No” to the in sane arms race which has no rational endpoint and is drain ing off the economic strength of this great nation, including our state of North Carolina. On Wednesday, February 16th, State Legislator Parks Helms introduced into our legislature a bill in support of a verifiable, bilateral freeze on the production of further nuclear bombs and delivery systems by both our govern ment and the Soviet govern ment. This is a measure that H. .Carter, Weldon sinner, was elected chairman of the Vice chairman is J. Donald Kerr, Waxhaw producer, and secretary is J. W. Chesnutt, Henderson textile manufacturer. The Council is the central organization of the U.S. cotton industry, representing pro ducers, ginners, cottonseed crushers, warehousemen, merchants, textile manufac turers, and cooperatives in the 17 cotton-producing states from the Carolinas to Califor nia. With headquarters in Memphis, it maintains offices in Washington, D.C.; Brussels, Belgium; and Hong Kong. Canada is to increase its share of Canadian travel ex penditures which were estimated at sl2-million last year. Areas participating in Canadian days include: Asheville, Boone, Blowing Rock, Cherokee, Fontana Village, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, High Point, Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Fayetteville, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Wilson, Rocky Mount, Dunn, South Brunswick Islands, Wilmington, Carteret County, New Bern, the Outer Banks, Roanoke Rapids, Smithfield, Elizabeth City, Gold Rock, Halifax, Jamestown and Lumberton. The Canadian Days celebration compasses a ma jor travel period in March when schools and colleges in Canada observe a “spring break ” many respected American military, scientific, and economic experts consider vital to our national security because it prevents both sides from deploying their “next generation” of worse and worse bombs. It will help us gain back some of our economic strength as a nation-without which we have no true security, no mat ter how many bombs we possess (and we already have 30,000 of them, enough to kill all the Russian people not once but 40 times over!). In fiscal ‘B3, the savings to our nation would be about S2O billion, which could be used to offset our deep deficit, create jobs, and strengthen our ailing economy. This freeze is not based on “trusting the Russians,” both because no one is comfortable with that, and because we American Legion News --American beg ion News * next Tuesday March Ist.

This is an expen sive program and your help is both needed and appreciated. THE CHOWAN HERALD Cleaning And Caring For Leather And Suede J Theresa T. Ford Home Economics Extension Agent How much satisfaction you get from a. leather or suede garment depends on wise selection and correct care practices. So here are some tips you might want to follow: Don’t allow the garment to become oversoiled before cleaning. Wear a scarf to pro : tect the collar area and to pre vent a leather or suede gar ment from becoming soiled by skin oils. To remove general surface soil, brush the garment often ; with a soft brush. Also, avoid ' home spotting procedures. , Don’t store leather or suede , garments in places where the , temperature or amount of moisture or dryness varies don’t have to trust them; we have excellent military surveillance systems in cluding satellites that can read license plates on the ground in Moscow and detect any significant production of nuclear missiles (this is bas ed on repeated testimony of knowledgeable present and former experts in the CIA and military). This is a conservative, ra tional, and prudent measure with less risk than the current perilous arms race, which has us on a collision course with nuclear war. To say “No” to the arms race, we need to write and call our state legislators now: Representative Charles Evans, P.O. Box 909, Nags Head, N.C. 27959 ( 473-2171); Representative Vernon James, Rt. 4, Box 251, Elizabeth City, N.C. 27909 (330-5561); and State Senator The oritorical contest, will 23. This is the District com petition and should'be very good. Dave White has done an exceptional job of putting everything together for this program. This is another outstanding program for the young people of our communi ty that is sponsored by The American Legion. We have surpassed the Department Membership goal set sot Post 40. We now have 385 members. Post 40’s goal is to reach 400 members by June Ist. This is very realistic and with a very little bit of extra effort we will reach this goal. A big round of applause goes out to Bert Hughes, our membership chairman for an outstanding job. This is one of the hardest time consuming jobs we have and Bert would like to thank each and everyone who helped with this drive. Lee Sadler is still in the hospital.

If garments are wet, allow them to dry naturally; don’t put a wet garment in contact with direct heat. Never attach jewelry to a leather or suede garment. Jewelry will make holes in the skin and damage the item. When it comes to cleaning, genuine suede and leather need special processing. So take your garment to a pro fessional cleaner. Give him any care instructions that came with the garment. Be sure to tell the cleaners about any unusual problems and ask about any problems that he thinks might occur. Point out any stains or spots, and tell him what caused the problem. Then he’ll know how to best handle your garment. Monk Harrington, Roanoke Trail, Lewiston, N.C. 27849 (348-2531). The same freeze proposal is before the U.S. House of Representatives and will be decided in about the next three weeks; our representative there is Mr. Walter B. Jones, House Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20515; phone (202) 225-3101. It is my personal opinion that the approach of the cur rent administration is not con servative, but radical-that of threatening nuclear war to solve the problems of East- West relations, a “cure” far worse than the “disease” (and the disease is bad enough). We need rational defense-and not suicide! As a moral nation, we do not condone suicide or murder, yet both of those sins are inherent in the arms race. Sincerely Candace N.

Makes us want to go to a Church of our choice to give thanks to our Heavenly Father for the great privilege of being a Christian. I hope we do not take this privilege too much for granted. Our Sunday School Lesson, Luke 23:32-46 reminded us once again how our Saviour suffered Crucifixion and Death to save you and I. Our Prayer List comes to us at Sunday School and this week includes: Albert Owens, Elizabeth Dale, Blanche Woodall, Michael Thacher, Louise Pillar, Hubert Woodard, Herman and Mildred Cahoon. Christian sympathy is extended to Bob and Meta Mason in the loss of a brother-in-law. As you pray, will you please remember these dear friends of Bandon Chapel. —O— Last week I attempted to share with you, a bit of the pride our congregation por trays in our Chapel. Our Board of Deacons frequently conducts a neighborhood can vas to invite the unchurched to join us and they have prepared an invitational brochure to pass on to pro spective visitors.

Your Invitation To Bandon Chapel “This brochure comes to you as a very honest and sincere invitation to share in the worship and work if the congregation and friends of Bandon Chapel, located at Ar rowhead Beach, Rt. 1, Eden ton, N.C. In the year 1964 a dream of a Chapel for Arrowhead Beach was born. Beginning with only Sunday School being held in the Clubhouse; these few resident Christians work ed diligently and by their own hands built this Chapel. The actual land on which the Chapel is constructed is steeped in the early history of our beloved North Carolina. It stands on the location of the original Bandon Plantation House formerly owned and restored by Mrs. Inglis Flet cher, famed hsitorical novelist and it was her re quest that it be named Ban don Chapel. This same group of Christians felt this spot, so rich in early history would be an ideal location for a Chapel; a place for the entire com munity to worship. With God’s rich blessings added to their hard work, the first service was held in Ban don Chapel, Easter Sunday Morning, March 29, 1970. On June 20,1971 the Chapel was formerly instituted as an Inter-denominational Church. Loyalty, devotion and faithful stewardship by an ac Page 9-B tive congregation has never waivered through *tae years and has been rewarded with a ministry rejoicing; in souls won to Christ and in benevolence offerings each year to help to support both Foreign and Home Missions.’’ -O- =■* Perhaps I can continue with the Brochure information next week - until then; let us go about our daily living remembering as we arise each morning to look up and say, “This is the day the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.” School Registration Edenton-Chowan Kindergarten Registration Registration for the Edenton-Chowan School System’s kindergarten will be as follows: March 7th—D.
