Within whose stripes runs cour age red. The all of US that’s tried and true; For this, up there, we’ve died and bled. Our flag—a bit of me, of you. Old-fashioned patriotism is a, tilling of the past.

C SECTION TWO our way of life too much for granted, unheeding and little rea lizing . that pre-occupancy and complacency can take 'that from us and drag Old Glory in the dust—if we don’t wake up and understand that the flag is some thing more than a prop with which to celebrate the Fourth of July. This fellow told the other, who had been griping about the South: “If you don’t like the South, the same bus that brought you here can carry you back.” In my book, loyalty is a cardi-| nal virtue. A man’s loyalty to one’s country, his friends his as sociates and to his better self. And high on my list is loyalty to one’s place of birth—his town,, his city, or whatever spot on this! earth where he was born, or adopted as home, spent his child-' j ill Farm near Evans Methodist !

Why The Hurry? Mounting pressures from interested groups lead to considerable emotions)- 1 ism on many issues, thus re-] moving a calm atmosphere con- 1 dueive to wise action on legisla tion. As a consequence, it is not easy to get issues of this character in true perspective. There are those who appear to Don’t Lag—Day Olaj: dentists say "wonderful" . "best I've ever used” . . .

DEAR” When you pay bills in cash it's sometimes hard to tell where the money went. Before vou know it the budget is upset and so are you. That’s one reason why so many are paying by check these days. They have a continuing record of income and outgo. Other reasons are the amount of time it saves, the evidence P of payment that cancelled checks bring, not to mention the prestige of paying by checks drawn on this leading bank. f Come in soon. \Vc have a checking account to fit you and your budget. pMilKi, | <3a/ik aadThuit eompasu/ EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA 3% Interest Paid On Savings Accounts MEMBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION DEPOSITS INSURED TO SIO,OOO Blanchard.

Having been before the j Senate Committee for nearly two ( years, the bill was reported in the middle of last week.

One of the deacons asked how much more he was offered. “Three hundred dollars," was ' the reply. “Well.
