Dunn Coo our friends during the summer. Many of them go out of town for visits, attend camp.s or youth ses sions held by their various churches, or work. There are very few occasions, if any. that a large number of us get together. On the other hand, the first weeks or .school are rather excit ing, M’e see new faces, including those very cute freshmen who try to hide their self con.sciousness. Then there’s the thrill of seeing the football team in action, and getting our student organizations under way. We are proud of the versatile, well rounded program we have at New Bern High school. We don’t believe that the extra-curri- lar activities hurt us scholastical ly, and they do so much to help our school spirit. As we approach another school year, we want to take time out to wish every happiness and success to the other high schools of Crav en county. And we also extend the same wish to Pamilco Central, Jones Central, and the neighboring high schools in Carteret. Onslow, Lenoir and Pitt counties. We know that they are just as proud of their schools as we are of ours, and they ha\e every right to be. All of us have advantages that our parents never had, and we must make the most of them.

It was a nice way to cross the bar into eternity. Rev. J. C. Griffin — (Continued ft urn Page 1) As for the gospel he preaches, and the Bible from which it comes, Griffin feels that it is as timely today as it ever was. “The great truths handed down to us by God are eternal and will always apply,” he says. For quite a few years he has kept a daily diary, but doesn’t keep track of statistics. Along the way he' has converted and baptized multitude of folks, and joined countless couples in holy wedlock. It is doubtful that any other minis ter in the State has conducted more funerals. Few people know what the two initials—J. C.—stand for in his name. “My first name is Jesse,” he says, “and I just added the C. to have a middle initial.” As it de veloped, he didn’t need that middle initial to make a name for himself in his chosen field.
