BK by Mrs. Leacie Brooks/F^
? 1 heme for Sunday's lesson
was "The Christian Family."
Lesson text was Proverbs
31:10 and Peter 3:1-6.
Much has been said about
the proper place for women in
modern society. We want to
look at what the Lord really
expects of us women. Now the
subject for this lesson is God's
plan for wives.
Let's look first at Adam's
wife. Eve. She being the first
wife, and too being a wife
with no back bone, we might
say. In this case who was the
weaker. This first lady should
have been the perfect ex
ample. but she sinned first.
No respect. Wanted no re
sponsibility. Really didn't
care.
Another lady in mind was
Abigail. She was a wife who
cared. I Samuel 14:32. She
had a husband she could have
turned traitor, but she didn't.
She believed in him because
she cared. She cared in spite
of circumstances.
Let's look at a wife who was
willing to sacrifice.
Her name was Hannah. She
sacrificed her desires in not
attending worship until Sam
uel her son was weaned. She
sacrificed her son to the Lord.
This being the greatest step of
all. If we as mother would
have done as Hannah, but
put our children in the hands
.of Jesus maybe they all would
have turned out to be much
better. Hannah meant busi
ness with God. Read I Samuel
1:20-28. *
Looking now at Luke 1:46
58 another and most impor
tant matter. Through Mary
and her child Jesus all the
nations of this world can be
blessed.
So many women today are
worried about women's lib.
Wives, let's awake to our role.
Let's step forward and
fisiffsnianrsnniuiEiifainsiinHiiEiii
show the world the role God
has given us. May the Lord
help us as wives and mothers
to not come up short of what
he meant for us to be. High
society isn't enough. Without
the Lord within out hearts, we
are nothing.
The Junior Gasa put on a
good program of singing
Sunday. The Adult Gass once
again received the attendance
banner.
Sunday being Father's Day
was a special day for all
fathers present at church. A
dinner was served in honor of
them in the fellowship hall.
The youngest father, Mr.
Tracy Lowry, the oldest, Bro.
Wade Oxendine, the father
with the most children at
church was our superinten
dent, Bro. Henty Chavis, all
received a gift from the
church.
I'm asking all our Giristian
readers to make a special
prayer for Brother Henry.
He's a wonderful superinten
dent but isn't able to be at
chruch every Sunday. Speak
ing of fine people, well, Bro.
Henry is a fine man. He's a
fine husband, father, neigh
bor, businessman and to cap
it all, he's a wonderful
Christian. Pray God's will will
be done in his life. Ever Green
needs more men like Bro.
Henry.
The pastor, Rev. Joseph
Lee Locklear asks that the
members be present for the
communion service Sunday
around the hours of 5 p.m. If
you like, come worship with
us, expecting a great time in
the Lord.

Journey toward it. casts the
shadow of our burdens behind
us. Wives and mothers, let's

down our burdens down by
the river side. We'll be free at
last.
Please pray for us at Ever

Video Gaines
Progress is wonderful, supposedly, but one wonders
when television commercials depict nut addicts to
some of today's video games. The commercials claim
Dad, or children "possessed" by these games, are
finding great satisfaction.
One wonders. We Americans were once a people of
the outdoors. That can't continue, as in the past, of
course, but the picture of a whole generation of
Americans somewhat overboard on electronic games is
not quite right.
One hasjtfie uneasy sensation we are on the way to a
society of homebound eggheads and escapists to
fantasy land. Not to mention the nervous-Nellie per
sonalities these rapid-paced games seem to create.
We'll take Huckleberry Finn, or Buckwheat Cake!

SHERIFF 1
OF . I
ROBESON I
COUNTY I
MY FELLOW CITIZENS.
When yen go to the poBa on Tuesday, Jane 29, yon will be deciding the safety of the general
public of our county. Do we want a county where brutal murderers roam at large to do their dirty
deeds again? Where thieves are at liberty to break mid enter at wU Into the homes of law-abiding
citizens? Where oar children are easy prey to the drug traffickers who do their dirty business largely
unmolested even In our neighborhoods?
These are serious matters worthy of your consideration as you decide who will be your SHERIFF
for the next four years. As a candidate It Is my duty to point out the demonstrated Inability of the
incumbent to effectively protect our people from the criminal element. Could this inability be the
result of known members of this criminal element actively supporting the candidacy of the
incumbent? This may be verified by an exam ki at Ion of any community. ra]
Although the Incumbent has portrayed his department aa the best In the State, official crime
statistics Indicate otherwise and our citizens know otherwise. We have a department with a million
dollar budget and one hundred employees without anyone having management training.
Experience in law enforcement la not enough. We need a sheriff with management skills to Insure
that each deputy effectively performs the duties entrusted to him and that no tax dollar Is wasted.
I appeal to the good pespis of our county to cast their vote against the criminal element that has
long had too much Influence on our county law enforcement. Vote for a change that brings honest,
Thank You,
