Rocky Hock Section News BY MRS. THURMAN W. ALLRED 7 Well Sunday was another ® ‘Jmowed-in” Sunday for lots of our folks. More made it out this time apparently than the Lust snowy Sunday, but many of Us still had to remain inside. Le.’s hope this is the last time teat sncw hits us this ha.'d on the weekend. Although services were held as usual on Sunday morning, the Sunday evening services were cancelled. We can imagine that Murray and Ada Tynch were sort of w.shing they had stayed in Flor ida a little longer when this snow came along. After two c»r three weeks of combination business and pleasure in Florida, the Tynchs returned home last week just in time to see the snows move in. We heard there are some more of our Rocky Hock folk-, contemplating a Florida trip soon maybe they want to see the warm sunshine for awhile, too. Rocky Hock names in the news last week included Lewis Evans (who had just taken him l self a wife) receiving top money for high peanut yield Sandsa Nixon, who had been presented tc the BPW Club as one of the speakers some weeks ago—O. C. Long, Mrs. Thurman Ashley and Sherlon Layton, who were burn ing that Community Building note—and trie Beech Fork mem bers who gave their hospital auxiliary membership money be fore the campaign began. We miss many of the various achievements of the talented people of this area but when we know about them, we surely want to pay tribute to them. We haven’t heard how the poetry and prose reading, pre sented by the Edenton Little Theater on Friday evening, came out. We had a conflicting meet ing, so we were not able to at j tend. Mrs. Jack Leary was due ■ to be on the program, I be lieve, and we understand a varied reading was planned. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Continued from Page 7, Sec. 2 to be worthy of the name of Christianity if we are to be tiuly “Sons of the Kingdom”— we must pattern our lives and our concepts on the life of .Jesus. I We should mever judge, nor condemn. Judgment should be left to One higher and more wise than we. We must never turn our backs on a fellow man because we are of the private opinion that he is beyond help or hope. Rather we must go oat of our way to discipline our selves to the point where we will extend a helping hand *. time and lime again, despite maybe repeated rebuffs or no discernible acceptance or appre ciation. / We must over be cognizant of the fact that weeds and plants do grow side by side; good and evil do rub shoulders daily. In deed. even the most casual of glances at the front pages of any daily newspaper serves as a constant reminder to us that we do not live in a “weedless” world. Bat or, the other hand, almost daily, too, we come into contact wiih evidences of kind ly concern and integrity the “good seed” the “Sons of the Kingdom.” ' mm i ■•'■ .-. ■yJxZ. . v;-^ We all like to be remembered on Valentine’s Day February 14th.
