V the manner in which It of the

to represent the 70 per cent Negro
population of Northampton County.

METHOD—Oak City Baptist and
St. James AME Churches held their
midimonthly worship service Sun
day morning at 11 o'clock. Rev.
Otha Debnam filled his pulpit at
Oak City. He preached a grand
sermon which was enjoyed by all
present At St James AME Church
were the pastor and Rev. C. C.
Scott Jr. Rev. Shears asked that
Rev. Scott deliver the message and
such eloquence as came from the
mouth of that young man is not
too often heard. His text was from
Micah, 6th chapter and a portion
of the Bth verse as follows: “And
what does the Lord require of us,
but to do Justly and to love mercy,
and- to walk humbly with God.” It
was beautifully done. Rev. Scotts*
; father was pastor of St. James for
a number of years during the time
the present structure was built. He
was a most worthy pastor and his
son is following in his footsteps,
only this young man has higher
training than his honorable father.
He was so proud to be a part of
the service in a church where his
father had pastored during the days
of his early ministry. We were glad
to greet him and his new bride of
a few days. His wife is the former
Miss Angela Clark, a beloved young
lady of our community. Mrs. Scott
j is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs
Samuel Clark, Sr.
During our morning service, Mrs
Shears, wife of our pastor, sang

A Thought For The Day
“Let us strive to scatter sunshine,
what do we gain by sowing seeds
of discord? God made us in his
likeness to live and walk in accord.
Where we vary from His presence,
strife will surely creep in. If we
wish and do his bidding, then there
will be less time for sin.
“Love thy neighbors, God has
told us to begin. In no way can we
serve Jesus if our neighbors we
offend.”
SOME SORRY OCCASIONS
should be forgotten and, like old
songs, should be discarded.
