PAGE TWO SECTION TWO SO. SECOND SERMONS -Hr- FRED DODGI Text: “There are times when silence is not golden r— just yel low.” 1 ' —Dr. Chodres. A very talkative woman pes tered a fisherman who was minding his own business and said, “Aren't you ashamed of your self? A big fellow like you might be better occupied than in cruelly catching a little fish!” Maybe you're right,” said the angler, “but if this fish had the sense to keep his mouth shut he wouldn’t be here.” Men as well as women and fish are criticized for opening their mouths at the wrong time. Equally in error are men who 'Today's Youth —Tomorrow’s Future Editor's Note: A/3c Fletcher G. Perry, who is stationed at Malmstrom Air Force Base in> Montana, recently was requested to be a guest writer for a column in the Great Falls Tribune. The column written by Perry, a Cho wan County boy. follows: Since I am very inexperienced in writing for a newspaper, when I was asked by the regular writ-! er of this column to contribute to it, it was with a very reluct ant feeling that I accepted her invitation. I asked myself what 1 had beneficial to offer anyone but I failed to come up with an "answer. Rather than value my own work, I decided to let you. the public, determine its value after reading this article. Since; I am new at this type of work, there will no doubt be countless errors in the following, but 1 believe that this is the case which arises when undertaking any new obstacle. In this time and age when there is so much stress put on the defects of teenagers, people seem to overlook the better qual ities behind these defects. I have to admit the actions, at times, of today's teenagers are very undesirable. But it must be realized that those who com mit these undesirable actions are a very small minimum and not the majority of the teenage pop ulation. Therefore people judge the majority by the actions oft the minority and therefore findi teenagers very hard to compre-i hend. If these same people* look back on their young-l er days they would see that the! activities in which they took part] in relationship with their en-t vironment was just as revolting as today’s younger generation’s actions are in comparison with today’s advanced and scientific environment. Although I have been in the Air Force only a short period of time. I have had the op portunity of conversing with boys from different parts of the country, and from different walks of life. And contrary to •the old belief that customs vary greatly from section to section of the country and from one so cial and financial class to an-1 other, I have found that the cus toms of these so-called “differ ent people” basically vary very little. I don’t mean to imply j 1 that a young person of small fi nances could do the exact things « boy with a higher financial W s wM srirN< i - H 1 >sn\H J?

Too often men of high, ideals, men of careful training, men of great promise, faded into obscurity because they were afraid to open their mouths when they should. They were afraid to stand squarely on their own beliefs and speak the truth as they understood it. Fearing the loss of friends or position, they cringed in silence. They settled for less than their best judgment. We have an il lustrious example in the deciple, Peter. And we have his further example as a man who received from cowardice and achieved his destiny. Open your mouth when your beliefs are challenged. Si lence then, is not golden. It's yellow. .background because that would I j only be deceiving you. But what' I mean is that although these people may do things in a dif ferent manner their initial objec tive is basically the same. I have to admit I was a bit' surprised to learn how nearly the same the customs of teen -1 agers from different parts of the country are. Almost everyone I conversed with were of the same opinion, that social and outside activities of a teenager plays just as important part in molding his future as the knowl edge obtained from a textbook. Although the majority of the people I have talked to on this subject have been teenagers, I believe that, almost all scholars will agree with this viewpoint. There are a lot of publications these days about the revolting teenage generation. I don't be lieve anyone would agree that a person who did exactly as he was told, no matter if it were j right or wrong, could be com parable with another person who does what he is told up to that point where he thinks a change could take place and thus car ries out this theory. When a! person is young, if he never! breaks the same old routine! there is no doubt that when he grows up he likewise will be! just as conceited about his opin-| ,ion. And if these young people! j don’t open their minds to their] present environment, what will ] I become of this old world when’ , those people who art' now set ting the standards of life passi I away? Therefore I see no rea- i ] son to be distressed when a* young person begins to do things differently from the standard ex-! ample although his actions may! seem revoking from the view- 1 point of older people. These, same people should realize, since' no doubt they did just as un-j sensible things in their youth,; that it is only natural for young' people to try and bolt* any regu-j lar routine. Thus in my opin ion this should not be a time of distress but a time of rejoicing in knowing that their children have reached the age where they have begun to think for themselves. No doubt their first, actions will probably be on the! wrong foot. But as these actions] continue they become reflects, which have respectable founds-] tions. Thus the future governing) generation will have the ability! to be dependent enough to stand “HERE,’ It’s sw im" Today you can food almost anyone by tolophono Maybe ** h stretching * a Ml» W honestly. yew can go almost onywhere and toft to anyono those stays with a tolophono ea*.

But if the young people ‘ hadn't revolted the regular rou-j tine while they were young, they [ would have to govern their adult , lives in' a trial and error method | of a beginner. If these people, had such troubles with their own] lives, what kind of government would they have? I think you will agree that this country could not survive such a gov ernment. What I am trying to point out > s that it would be better to let a young person re volt and make his mistakes while he is young, than to wait until he is older and holds some position of authority to commit these errors which would affect a large number of persons. As 1 said in the beginning of this article. 1 am new at this line of work and no doubt you can tell. No doubt there are those who will disagree with my opinions but if there is Just one person who has a better un derstanding of the teenagers around them I feel that my time has been well spent. I didn’t write this article to have people agree with me: I only stated my, opinion. As in any field of work pro-j gress will only occur with a lot! of habitual work in that field. I Therefore maybe by the next time 1 offer my suggestion on a (subject I will be better equipped . to render my thoughts RECORD CORN CROP Based on condition reports ’ from growers as of July 1, pro duction of corn in North Carolina is forecast at 88.228.000 bushels. A crop of 88.228,000 bushels, if realized, would be a record and 1 is 2.7 percent more than the pre vious record 1859 crop of 85.914,- 000 bushels. Acreage for har vest is estimated at 1.918,000 acres, which is 4.0 percent be low last year. The smaller com acreage is due in part to a switch from corn to soybeans.

Memory Selection: “SoKv for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain salvation upon you.” (Hosea 10:12). Lesson Text: Hosea 8:1-5; 10: 1-12; 13:1-3. Pursuing our study on “God’s Justice and Mercy,” today adults will want to consider the very pertinent question: What signs of decay are apparent in the life of our communities and our nation? Reading our Biblical text for today, we see that as the na tion prospered, the Israelites turned more and more to idola try. And few men in Israel’s history ever unleashed so sting ing an attack on idolatry as did Hosea. Speaking for God, he tried to shake the people loose from their proud, unworthy lead ership. Hosea believed that God should have a hand in deciding the leadership of his people, as in the days of Moses. So for midable were the crimes against Chowan County Churches . EDENTON BAPTIST RF.V. R.

God, so ridden was the nation with occurrences that a holy God hated and despised, and so in league was the priesthood with the corrupt politicos, that Hosea directed his appeal and plea to the body politic, perhaps hoping for a major revolution to alter the disaster-laden course which the nation was so bliss fully pursuing. Today does the concern exhibited by Hosea have pertinence for us? The bright side'of the world’s history is the story of hard won victories in fay or of the dignity of man. It always turns out that the elevation' of man’s condition comes about because someone cared enough to cham pion a particular cause. Flor ence Nightingale, braced against her family’s opposition and' her friends’ scorn, carried her knowl edge of medicine to the bloody Crimean battlefields.
