If Four-H Club members, both
Ws and girls, should now be
their project record,
Sbooks up to date. I know you 1
-are looking forward with much!
anticipation to the opening of
lichool. You're suddenly going
-_to find yourself very busy. You
can bring your record books up
to date —some may even be
completed —now. This will keep
you from being rushed later on
and you will be able to turn in
a record book that speaks well
of your efforts. Remember, a
project record book is nothing
more than a record of your ac
complishments.
The Edenton Lions Club and
Rotary Club are again sponsor
ing the Corn and Peanut pro
jects. As in the past, all 4-H’ers
einrolled in these projects and
fathers will be honored aC
a special meeting. Os course,
each boy must satisfactorily
complete his project, and this
means a record book must be
turned in. The members of
these two civic clubs are in
terested in you and in your pro
gress. Otherwise, they would
HQt be honoring you in this
manner. They are not able to
go out and see each boy and
observe his project, but a good
record book will tell them the
story of your project. Won't
you do your best to make this
record as complete and accur
ate as possible?
It seems that Chowan County
4*H ’ers have been going every
where this summer. First, we
had 24 attend 4-H Camp at
jifanteo in June. Later in the
inonth over 20 attended the Dis
trict Demonstration contest in
Chocowinity. when Chowan
came home with two district
demonstration winners. In July,
five 4-H’ers attended, and from
what I’ve heard had a wonder
ful time at the Senior 4-H Camp

at Manteo. The latter part pi
July, five 4-H’ers wfent to State
4-H Club Week in Raleigh.
Seven more also attended Club
Week for one day. Last week
the Center Hill Junior and Sen
ior 4-H Club members spent a
most enjoyable day at Lake
Ahoy, near Suffolk, Va. The
Advance 4-H Club members are
planning a trip to Ocean View,
on Friday, August 19. On Mon
day, Roy Nixon left for a week
at Camp Millstone. He will be
attending State 4-H Forestry
Camp, an all expense paid trip
i won through his 4-H Forestry
activities.
So, you see, 4-H’ers really
have some wonderful opportuni
ties to learn and have fun as
well. If you were not in on
any of these activities, then
make a resolution now to be
! come a more active 4-H’er. I
know you will get a lot more
out of 4-H if you will put just
a little more work into it. And
I know your efforts will pay
vou big dividends in personal
growth and development, such
as it has so many others.
Benson Speaker

ciation at Miami, Fla.

ble industry.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
The healing power of spirit
ual understanding will be ex
plained at Christian Science
churches Sunday in the Lesson-j
Sermon on “Mind", which con-1
eludes the current series de
voted to synonyms for God.
Christ Jesus’ response to the
centurion who asked help for
his palsied servant will be in
cluded in the Bible readings:
] “And Jesus said unto the cen
j turion. Go thy way: and as thou
j hast believed, so be it done un
,to thee. And his servant was
| healed in the selfsame hour”
I (Matt. 8:13).
j From “Science and Health
| with Key to the Scriptures” by
Mary Baker Eddy the follow
ing selection will be read
(180:25): “When man is gov
erned by God, the ever-present
Mind who understands all
things, man knows that with
i God all things are possible.
| The only way to this living
Truth, which heals the sick, is
found in the Science of divine
I Mind as taught and demonstrat
ied by Christ Jesus.”

LESSON I

| Continued from Page s—Section 2
; driving do not mix—they never
i have, and they never will. The
I drinking driver is an even
; greater menace than the drunk
en one, if statistics are to be
| believed.
;j All this reveals something of
what the citizen caring for the
i good of his community is up
against. It also indicates to
I what depths self-indulgence can
; sink us. The results of self-in
! diligence in personal life are an
. open book for all to read. Some
' people seem to have the ability
! to use alcohol or to leave it
! alone. Some are not so equip
: ped. and there is no sure and
; positive way of predicting which
1 drinker will get sick with al
. coholism. When one finds he
i has no immunity against the
i compulsion to drink, it is : too
late. He has already become
j an alcoholic.
I And although self-indulgence
t barms the body, it is even more
-j hurtful to the mind and heart,
j When a person is under the in
! fluence of alcohol, wrongs do
. not appear as ugly as at other
• times. Also, because he feels
[ that his ability to face life is
not as inadequate as it first
appeared to be. bis need of
-! God seems to be not as great.
» jf i| tMiiiiH
This attitude is fatal to vital
religion. In. this sense, there
fore, self-indulgence is a religi
ous issue.
To Cain’s classic question, “Am j
I my brother’s keeper?” Chris
tianity responds with a resound
ing “Yes”. Not only does self-|
inuulgence in alcohol encourage!
others to drink; it also supports!
a gigantic industry that seeks
to make social drinking a glam
orous way of life to youth and
young adults. In the early
church some Christians were
troubled in conscience because
they had eaten meat offered
first to idols. This did not
trouble Paul, who could eat the 1
food with a clear conscience;
but because he was eager to
make life less difficult for his
comrades, he was willing to
stop eating meat. Should not
we Christians do at least this
much for our brothers who may!
not have the immunity against
alcohol which we claim for our j
selves?
There are many reasons why
Christians should forsake self
indulgence. Love for others cer
tainly should stand at the top
of the list. There is no rea
son for anyone to feel em
barrassed at refusing a drink
proffered at a social function.
Every man has the right to his
own convictions. Rather should!
we take pride in the fact thati
we are considered “different”, 1
and wear the nomenclature
proudly, as one would a badge
of honor.

Few trucks are subjected to the
body-wracking beatings that are
part of a day’s work for this
Chevrolet Series 60 pulpwood
hauler. It’s owned by J. E. Fox,
North Carolina logging contrac
tor. As Bobby Fox, a partner in
the business says, “Loaded with
pulpwood, we drive over stumps
and potholes you’d think would
tear the truck to pieces. These
trails would sluike the cab off an
ordinary truck, but not our
Chevy. We can average an extra
load a day .. . make $ 45 to 950
a day more with this Chevy than
toe can with the others .”

In every weight class these Chevies
are doing more work at less ex
pense than trades have ever done
before. Drive one at your Chevro
let dealer’s. It's an experience that
could pay you big dividends.
