John probably the youngest of the loved.". He is supposed to have li v ed to a ripe old age serving as Bishop of Ehesus.

He is known principally by his book. : Thomas is associated with doubt, because he questioned the resurrec tion of the Lord, but he should also be remembered for his courage. When Jesus started for - Judea. . where his enemies awaited him. it was Thomas who bravely spoke up and declared an intention of going to die wfyh him. We do not hear much about Philip. Once or. twice he figures in the gos pel narratives. However, when he sought to interest Nataniel (Bar tholomew) and the latter , asked if anything good could come out of Nazareth he invited him to come and see. Nathaniel Was something of a thinker and is the only one who is recorded as having hesitated about accepting Jesus.

The State flag that floats over North Caro- Una's capitol in Raleigh bears on its folds two dates: May . 20, 1775. April 12, 1776. On th,e initial date, the people of Mecklen-. burg county meeting in Charlotte were the first in America to declare themselves "... a free and independent people.": The second date marks the day on which the Halifax Convention directed the North Carolina members in the Continental Congress to . vote for separation from England. Yes, independence took root early in North Carolina. No wonder that any ques- tion involving personal liberties is weighed -carefully here Tolerance not prejudice. Mutual respect for the other fellow and his individual rights. That's the way to main tain this heritage of freedom which is ours ' to enjoy and to uphold in North Carolina. . '' . N. C.
