Scott Seeks ‘Real Jim Gardner’
RALEIGH 'Will the
rval Jim Gardner please
stand up?" Bub Scott has
been asking (hat question
across North Carolina re
cently.
“He's been changing his
mind so often lately, I
don't know where the real
Jim Gardner stands," Scott
said.
"He changed from Demo
crat to Republican to seek
a congressional seat with a
campaign promise of being
a fulltime congressman,”
Scott said. “Then he
changed his mind after he
was elected and became a
candidate for governor and
a parttime congressman.
He said he would support
Mr. Nixon for the Repub
lican presidential nomina
tion, but he changed his
mind and leaned toward
Governor Reagan of Cali
fornia.
“Maybe in the course of
all these changes he will
change back to support me
as a candidate for governor
on the Democratic ticket,”
Scott said.
Scott recommended that
James V. Johnson of .Char
lotte be the new chairman
of the State Democratic
Executive Committee and
that Mrs. James M. Harper
be the vice chairman.
The committee approved
his recommendations.
Johnson, a Charlotte bot
tling company executive,
succeeds I. T. (Tim) Valen
tine, Jr., of Nashville.
Mrs. Harper polled more
than 148,000 votes in a
primary race for nomina

Scott said at Asheville
he is conducting a guber
natorial campaign of Tar
Heels, by Tar Heels, and
for Tar Heels.
“I’m a Tar Heel, folks
know I’m a Tar Heel, and
I am interested in Tar Heel
programs,” Scott said. “I
would like to think people
are going to vote for me
cn the basis of my record
and me as a candidate,
rather than whatever
movie star I might bring
in from out of state to
help me in my campaign.”
Scott’s opponent, Jim
Gardner, appeared jointly
with California Gov. Ron
ald Reagan, a former
movie star, at a Winston-
Salem rally July 30.
Scott said bridges are a
sore subject among some
county school superintend
ents and parents in North
Carolina.
“There are now five
bridges in Alamance Coun
ty over which school buses
have been forbidden to
pass,” Scott said. “There
were six.
“One of those bridges
collapsed July 11 when a
loaded tractor-trailer at
tempted to cross it.”
Scott said that farther
west, near Morganton in
Burke County, a bridge
across Warrior’s Fork was
in such bad condition this
school year that a school
bus carrying 40 students
had to unload its passeng
ers before it could cross.
“It it was raining in the
morning, the children got

wet and they had to wear
their wet clothes to school,”
Scott said.
“The state must place
priority on the replace
ment or repair of bridges
where school buses are in
volved,” he said.
“We must not wait -until
a bridge collapses with a
loaded school bus before
taking action,” Scott said.
HEALTHAND
SAFETY TIPS
FORGET OLD FROSTBITE
TREATMENTS
Frostbite is an import
ant health hazard each
winter in most parts of the
country.
Today’s Health, the
magazine of the American
Medical Association, re
ports that true frostbite
means that the tissues are
frozen. Crystals of ice
form between the cells.
Nerves, muscles and blood
vessel tissues are most
susceptible.
Frostbite can happen be
fore you know it, and it
isn’t necessary for the tem
perature to be excessively
low. The wind plays an
important role. The chill
ing effect of air at 20 de
grees moving 45 miles an
hour is the same as 40-. be-I
1 iw-zero air on a still day. i
CVne of the dangers of j
frostbite is that you often
don’t feel it. First thing!
you know is that someone •
else notices that your ear,
or nose is turning white.
The frozen part becomes
hard to touch and loses
feeling. Many sports lead
ers advocate a buddy sys
tem for outdoor winter
sports: two persons are
paired off, each watching
the other for signs of frost
bite.
To prevent frostbite, first
be certain that you are
properly dressed for the
temperature. Avoid over
exertion and excessive per
spiration. Avoid contact
of bare flesh with cold
metal. Don’t drink alcohol
or smoke.
In first aid for frostbite,
forget the old saw about
rubbing the affected part
with snow, and also forget
the completely invalid cau.
tion against rapid thawing.
Also, don't massage or rub
the frozen part. Don’t
touch it at all. Begin rap
id rewarming as soon as
possible. A hot bath is ex
cellent, but avoid scalding.
Hot wet towels will help,
changed frequently and ap
plied gently. If no fire or
hot water is at hand, place
the patient in a sleeping
bag, or cover with coats
and blankets. Hot liquids
will help raise body tem
eprature.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
TOO BUSY FOR GOD’S WORK
International Sunday School Lesson for Aug. 18
Memory Selection: “Is it time for you, O ye,
to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie
waste?”—Haggai 1:4.
Lesson Text: Ezra 4-6; Haggai 1-2; Zechariah
| 1-8.
In the study of our last lesson the exiles were
shouting and weeping for joy at being permitted
to return to. their homeland and rebuild the
temple in Jerusalem.
In the lesson we are studying today, we find
those same people in a vastly different mood—
disinterested, unwilling to apply themselves to
the task at hand. Why?
Forced by royal decrees, the people were
forced to stop the work of rebuilding. And from
out of this idleness came ennui. Perhaps it was
wrong—but how many of us (burdened with the
necessity of making a living) work diligently at
it to the point of dropping in our tracks? Some
how, we keep going—just as long as we don’t
stop. When we DO stop, however, then—and
only then—do we realize how tired we are—and
we have to flog ourselves to get back into the
swing. There are few among us who have es
caped this experience in the course of a life
time; it therefore behooves us ill to be critical
of the exiles at the point we are studying.
There is. however, one thing of which the re
turned exiles were guilty, and which we, today,
must guard against; instead of deepening their
religious life, they fell prey to the snares of
secularism. They became absorbed in things
which wholly concerned their daily life, neglect
ing the things pertinent to life everlasting. They
became, in other words, selfish.
And had it not been for the prophet Haggai,
this state of affairs might have continued in
definitely. But, speaking tor the Lord, Haggai
shocked them into acceptance of their responsi
bilities, and the rebuilding operation was re
sumed.
Discouragement, then—as it still does today—
breeds apathy. It is a pitfall the true Christian
must ever guard against.
The people who had been charged with the
responsibility of rebuilding the temple were
lucky; they had Haggai and Zechariah to stir
their conscience and galvanize them into com
pleting the Lord’s work that had been neg
lected.
We, today, are vulnerable to disenchantment.
Things don’t quite go as we would like them to,
and we become discouraged. This discourage
ment often takes the form of excuses when, as
Christians, we are asked to perform some extra
curricular task in our church work. We have
too many other things on our mind things
which, in our eyes, take priority in our worka
day schedules. What we tend to forget is that
time belongs to God —all of it.
Our primary commitment is to God. All that

It’s pretty exhausting to have two big brothers
that excel in everything!
Os course, there are advantages. Like the time a
bully beat me up—my brothers followed me to school
for two weeks. They wouldn’t have fought him, but
he didn’t know that. Every night they worked out
with me. Finally, I took him on and won.
My brothers are first-rate in everything—studies
and athletics. There’s nothing wishy-washy about them
—if they don’t think something’s right, they say so.
When there was a “walk-out” at school, they squashed
it, practically single-handed.
Because our parents have always taken us to
church and taught us God’s way, my brothers are
strong-principled and good. I aim to be like them.
Your church is a training ground for integrity!

THE CHURCH FOR AU . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest
factor on earth for the building
of character and good citizen
ship. It is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a
strong Church, neither democ
racy nor civilization can sur
vive. There are four sound
reasons why every person
should attend services regu
larly and support the Church.
They are: (1) For his own
sake. (2) For his children's
sake. (3) For the sake of his
community and nation. (4) For
the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and
material support. Plan to go
to church regularly and read
your Bible daily.
