PAGE TWO |—SECTION ON* World Day Os Prayer Scheduled Here Friday Church members in Eden- j ton will join their counter-! parts across the nation and I around the world Friday in the annual observance of World Day of Prayer. Mrs. George B. Holmes, chairman of the local World Day of Prayer Committee, has in vited all interested persons in the Edenton area to at tend this specia'l service in the Edenton Piesbyterian Church at 4 P. M. Mrs. Pi. Elton Forehand, Jr., will present the . medi tation on the theme, “Ye Are My Witnesses.” Other participants in the service tomorrow will in clude: Mrs. Chester Stev ens, Mrs. L. H. Haskett, Mrs. Archie Walker, Mrs. John Lavezzo, Mrs. Jack Jlabltr flaraiir Continued from Page One iff and register put on a sal ary and let all fees go into the treasury. This is not as unrelated to problems at Arrowhead Beach as one might think. NO SURPRISE There is no basis for an element ol surprise in the decision to chuck North Carolina's con gressional redistricting plan. The very legislators who ap proved the measure only weelcs ago knew at the time it wouldn’t pass the test. The three-judge panel did allow elections in May in the new Congressional districts. Due to the late hour, it would have been a physical impossibility and a costly undertaking—to have a third session in a matter of months to deal with the question. When the solons gather in Raleigh in early 1967 they will be under court orders to get the congressional dis tricts in line. Unless the majority of our representatives take a more serious approach to the re districting than was evident this year, a lot of valuable time could be spent on the issue. The debate of the name change of one branch of the Consolidated University o! North Carolina consumer much of two sessions. Now the congressional redistrict ing looms as another ques tion thul could hamper tin legislature from passing on more important items of business. Therefore, since the court has spoken the redistrictinf question should be tackled once more. And it shouldn’t take a week to do the job. Matthews Plans Roads Meeting State Highway Commis sioner Don Matthews of Hamilton will be in Edenton March 21 to meet with Cho wan County commissioners. At this time they will dis cuss secondary road im provements. Chairman W. E. Bond said the commissioners will meet with highway officials in the court house at 10 A. M. Included in the people to attend will be D. M. Pat rick, district highway engi neer. Chairman Bond said any one in the county wishing to have a secondary road im proved should make appli cation with the board prior to the regular monthly meeting on March 7. This will allow commissioners ample time to get the re quest to the district office. Don’t “blast off” on - ijj E a long car-shopping trip.

Shoaf. “Observed each year on the first Friday in Lent, World Day of Prayer is truly world-wide in character,” Mrs. Holmes said. The same order of service, trans lated into many different languages, is used in all parts of the globe. This pro vides a unique opportunity r or a deep experience of .Christian unity in prayer with Christians all over the world.” She pointed out that each wear’s order of service is designed bv an individual or committee in a different country. The 1966 service, being used in 125 countries is based cn the international theme: “Ye Are My Wit nesses” and was prepared by women of the World Day of Prayer Committee in Scotland. A project of this year’s observance in Edenton is the furnishing of fabric parcels for the 200.000 Vietnamese who have become refugees due to military activity. Most fled their homes with few or no possessions and are now in dire need of clothing. Donors are asked to as semble the following items, wrapped together, in each gift parcel: Four yards of white cotton cloth: four vards of black cotton cloth: five yards of printed cotton cloth: sewing needles, and suitable thread. Mrs. Holmes savs that these parcels may be deliv ered to the World Day of Prayer service tomorrow at he Presbyterian Church or ’eft at St. Paul’s Episcopal Parish House anytime before March 15. “This year’s service stress es the idea that ordinary church members can change ‘he world by their daily ac tions,” Mrs. Holmes said. ‘lt also reflects the ancient 1 raditions of the Scottish Church. "For 80 years this unique day of prayer for peace and brotherhood has united women across oersonal, na tional and racial barriers in i solemn act of rededication to their common mission throughout the world," she said.
