N. (Pete) Manning Q —l have been waiting for just such an opportunity as your column! I have a ques tion I might need the answer to some day: When someone requests to be “buried at sea” or in any waters, what are the funeral arrangements or procedures? What are the regulations? A—The North Carolina stat ute governing funerals does not contain anything regard ing burials at sea. The best information I can find is that the ship’s captain is in charge of all procedures of each and every thing that is done aboard his ship, and would, therefore, have charge of the burials at sea. This applies, however, after proper registra tion of death certificate and burial-transit permit. Q —A thought which has always bothered me is “what to say” when you visit the home of a friend or relative who has just experienced the loss of a loved one . . . can you shed a little light on this? A—Actually, “what to say”, as you put it, is secondary. 1 Mr. Skittlethorpe Buried Thursday Funeral services were held last Thursday afternoon for Joseph Edward Skittlethorpe, 207 Park Avenue.

Make Going To Church A Habit JUDGMENT AND PROMISE International Sunday School Lesson for Aug- 0 Memory Selection: •'By faith Noah, being warn, ed of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house.”—Hebrews 11:7. Lesson Text: Genesis 6-9; Matthew 24:37-39; II Peter 2:4-10a. As has been previously noted in our lessons, God sits in judgment on man, and on man's sin ning, but, as has also been noted,’He tempers justice with mercy. This is the continuing theme of our lesson today, ns we study God’s despair at the evil in man that was running rampant throughout a world that had been ex pressly created for the benefit of than man made in God's own image. We read of man’s continuing willful! sinning, and of God’s sorrow and final impatience with him; cf His reluctant decision that retribution is inevitable—that the world must be purged. But we also read of His mercy towards one Godly man and his family. For Noah was an upright man, who walked in close communion with God, and this despite the evil which was rampant around him. There fore we see God commanding Noah to build an ark, wherein he and his family would be safe frem the rains of forty days and forty nights (the great flood) which were to be the purging agent. Likewise—in accordance with God’s great wis dom—two each of every living creature were to be given sanctuary, that the world might continue, and have a new start. Noah, in fact, was the instrument of God’s will; he was to—in point of fact—form a new world, into which Christ’s advent was to be the saving Grace—all of which is indicative of God’s irrevocable plan. And as we pursue the story of Noah, we rea lize (as we have before) that he was not, ne cessarily a perfect man; he was human, and subject to human frailties. BUT—he tried to be a Godly man. (How often, as we study the Bible, have we found God working through the most unlikely of people?) This shculd give us hope. No matter how frail we are, God looks into our hearts and measures us by our aspira tions. FAITH was Noah’s inward strength. Faith in God! He did the Master’s bidding unquestion ingly. And it is noteworthy that, immediately after the flood, Noah’s first action was to build an rltar. and thereupon make an offering to God. In return, God made a new covenant with man kind—the world would never again be destroyed by flood. He would find a better way to deal with the sins of man—He would send His dearly beloved Son to do penance for our sins, that we might be cleansed of all that was evil. Through faith in Christ all men were to become new creatures and find within themselves the strength to fight the onslaught of sin. Through Jesus Christ, man was to become worthy of the love and trust God had invested in him. Continued on Page 8 Your Happy Shopping Store W. E.

Broad St. WgßgjPP Ph. 482-3122 - Edenton it iCn Yesterday I saw the ocean for the first time. Jim and I had been invited to a house party at a cottage on the shore. Having recently moved East from the Midwest, I had anticipated nothing more on the drive down than a weekend of fun and games, swimming and dancing. But I wasn’t prepared for the ocean. Its grandeur and beauty stirred me. Today I walhad along the beach for long hours watching the waves or searching the shore for shells, listening to the wonderful roar of the tea as whitecaps splashed around me. Tonight as I stood at ocaan’s adge, the stars sssmsd near. Breakers crashing rhythmically sprinkled phosphorescence on the sand. For an instant I was caught within infinity. Sty, beach and tides contained me —in that moment I saw God. I may never again achieve the clarity of that second on the beach, but someday I may. For this experience has a wakened in me a longing to know more about God and the Truths the beauty of His world reveal. ‘ * <ll 4 # M «-..*% » —.— • -i T«- ; nrTUftliii i - ■ ----- ' Sunday Monday Tuesday Wtdutiday Thursday triday Saturday' Is? -11 Hebrews James Genesis Numbers Deuteronomy Joshua Josbsta Scriptures selected by the American Bible Society Copyright 1070 Keister Advertising Service , Inc., Strasburg, V«.
