Background Scripture:
Revelation 6 through 7
Devotional Reading:
^ 1 Peter 1:3-9
My son. Todd, called me yester
day from work to tell me that A
Man For All Seasons would be "the
late movie" for last evening. Inas
much as 1 had already seen the
stage play on Broadway and the
motion picture at least twice, I had
not the slightest intention of staying
up to see it again, for I am no
longer a "late nighter."
^ Nevertheless, I did just that.
^Intending to watch just the first few
minutes, I quickly found myself
engrossed in the depiction of Sir
Thomas More and his Christian
martyrdom. Once again I watched
the story of this gifted man who
neither sought to be a hero nor a
martyr and eventually personified
both. Again I was struck with the
timeliness of his dilemma for he
was not challenged to give up his
^Christian faith, but simply to
Compromise a little.
In the drama we see him
struggling to maintain both his
integrity and his relationship with
King Henvy VIII. whom he served
as Chancellor. All he would need to
do. as family, friends, and foe alike
reminded him. was to agree with
the King's plan to terminate his
marriage with Queen Catherine.
Many were claiming that the
^marriage had never been legal in
the first place, let alone moral.
According to the drama. More
desperately wanted to accommo
date himself to this demand. In
time, however, it becomes obvious
that he simply cannot without
forfeiting his very soul.
The most poignant ?cene is that
when his family is allowed to visit
him in prison, all knowing that,
unless he relents, it will be the last
time they will see each other. They
demand, they plead: You to proven
your point, Thomas More; we've all
suffered enough; sign the king's
paper and come home to us! With
all his heart. More wants to give in
to them, wants to survive. But he
cannot. God speaks to him more
loudly and clearly than even those
whom he loves.
So on a warm July morning in
1535, Sir Thomas More, a kindly
yet determined Christian man. was
executed in the Tower of London
and thus earned his white robe.
In John's great revelation he saw
an immeasurable multitude who
stood before the Lamb "clothed in
white robes." "Who are these,
clothed in white robes, and whence
have they come?" John is asked in
his vision. And the answer that is
given for him: "These are they who
have come out of the great tribula
tion; they have washed their robes
and made them white in the blood
of the Lamb." (7:13, 14).
None of us are likely to be called
to martyrdom for our faith today,
but. like Sir Thomas More, we may
be challenged to remain loyal to
Christ at the price of some personal
cost, be it great or small. Like him.
we may not feel cut-out to be heroes
or martyrs, but. as he did. we are
called to remain loyal to Christ and
pay the price of our hoped-for white
robes.
From the
Superintendent's Desk

Florence Cohen
I had been the principal of Hoke
County High School only a short
time when 1 was assigned an ESEA
Title 1 Reading teacher.
When 1 found out the teacher
was a Yankee 1 wondered how in
the World I was supposed to put
up with consolidating the three
?races into one high school and get
to understand a Yankee. This
Yankee taught me a lot of things
and 1 learned to love her as a fine
human being.
Her intelligence is superior. Her
understanding of youngsters was
demonstrated as only a superior
teacher could demonstrate. It mat
tered not where they came from - a
tobacco patch or a city street. She
only saw their needs and taught
_them as only a superior teacher can
^each. She loved them as one who
understand from whence they
came.
When 1 became superintendent 1
gave a call and she responded. I
like to think I was wise enough to

recognize one who had something
to contribute to all. She fulfilled
every expectation I had of her. She
stood tall with the disappointments
and did not gloat over the suc
cesses. If any one individual can be
given credit for the vast improve
ment of our childrens academic ad
vances, it would be Florence
Cohen.
Florence would be the first one
to tell you that it takes a joint ef
fort. A team effort. A team effort
needs a leader and she was the
leader.
Mrs. Cohen is leaving us for new
adventures. She and her soon-to
be-retired husband. Col. George
Cohen, have bought the Bordeaux
Dinner Theater. Florence has
always been greatly interested in,
and involved in, acting. Besides,
she is the type of individual who
needs new worlds to conquer.
I am saddened that Mrs. Cohen
is leaving us, but I rejoice in having
had her services for our children
for so long. 1 am not only losing a
Director of Instruction, 1 am being
separated from a friend. Although
our friendship will continue, I will
miss the everyday association.
Thank you Florence, for your
service to our children. I thank God
that He let you pass our way...
