THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1070 |Jnblic Parade Con tinned frame Pare 1 have been anticlimatic anyway. Gov. Bcb Scott had beaten the congressman to hog heaven. L. F. Amburn, Jr. Someting Special' On the Church Page of today’s news paper you will find another special fea ture. It is called “The Wayside Pulpit” and is written by Dr. D. E. Earnhardt, a Methodist minister of note who has come to meander along the Public Pa rade. The Methodists here thought they got something special when Rev. E. L. Earn hardt was assigned to the local pulpit. What-Jhey didn’t know at the time was the bonus which was to follow. Dr. and Mrs. Earnhardt reside at Cape Colony. They recently trans ferred their membership to the local church and the administrative board has asked that he be designated as the asso ciate pastor. The addition of Dr. Earnhardt’s col umn jfhjt about rounds out our coverage on the Church Page. He will carry you to the grave and Pete Manning’s “Mortu ary Forum” will keep you posted on what to expect then. BIBIE TO HOSPITAL Continued from Puge 1 to a hospital. “It is not only a religious act but a fitting doctrine to the whole man,” he said. The speaker described relationships of health and religion and declared that God is for healing, regardless of the method, ke pointed out that our Western culture has created some unhealthful assumptions which can be cleared by proper interpre tation of the Scriptures. Mrs. C. B. White, Sr., president of the Women’s Society of Christian Service of Center Hill and Evans United Metho dist Churches, was master of ceremonies and presented the Bible to Thomas M. Surratt, hospital administrator. Surratt took the opportunity to praise the attitude of the people in Chowan County who have made it possible to build the new hospital. He said gifts such as the Bible are symbolic of the spirit which prevails in the community. BIG CHOWAN FAIR Con tinned from Page 1 A pullet sale will be sponsored by 4-H youths Thursday afternoon but the time of the sale is not definite. W. A. Perry, president of the Chowan County Fair Association, urges partici pation in the fair from all. Other of ficers are R. E. Leary, secretary-treas urer and Glenn Perry, manager. Persons interested in entering exhibits for judging must have their goods at the fairgrounds by 4 P. M., Monday but fair officials urge that exhibits be brought as early as possible. Flower arrangements will be accepted on Tues day at 9 A. M. The fair will open Monday at 7 P. M. if exhibitors bring their goods and every thing edn be set up. It will open on Tuesday at 3 P. M., and close on Sat urday at 12 midnight. Children’s day will be held Wednesday and a matinee of the Joe Smiley and The Newmans act will be conducted. On an average, approximately 20,000 persons attend the fair annually, how ever, the fair was rained out last year and the American Legion members hope to have a good response this year to make up for last year’s rain. The utmost tragedy in the world, in the minds of small boys, is that the hqme team last. (SU^J&S^n - sh a#" Due to practically every spare moment being with my sick wife, there has been no time to write this column this week. She was home for a few days the latter part of last week, but had to be again admitted to Chowan Hos pital, where she remains a very weak and sick woman. LITTLE CRITICISM CasttiuMd frara Fagg 1 ditional janitorial service be provided and the second floor painted. In a report signed by R. Graham White, Jr., foreman, and presented to Judge Robert D. Rouse, Jr., of Farm ville, the valuable service being rendered by Edenton-Chowan Rescue Squad was cited. It was recommended that county commissioners give the squad all assist ance possible. “We feel strongly that a suitable place for equipment and vehicle storage should be provided as soon as possible,” it stated. With regards to inspection of the schools, the following was reported: ERNEST A. SWAIN We find this school to be in good con dition. The exterior woodwork needs painting as well as the interior walls. The woodwork in Room 28, damaged by fire, should be replaced. The screens on cafeteria , windows need replacing. We find that the cafeteria has a “B” sanitation rating. This can be raised if certain repairs and improvements are made. We recommend this be done im mediately. D. F. WALKER We find this school generally in good condition. Towel racks are needed in boys’ bathroom. Some baseboard re pairs are needed. The gym needs bet ter lighting and seating. Heating units in two of the first grade rooms need re pairs. We feel that the size of the lunch room is inadequate and that plans should be made to relieve this situation. JOHN A. HOLMES We find this school to be in good con dition. "A paved parking area for the school buses is badly needed. We recom mend that this be taken care of. CHOWAN HIGH SCHOOL We find this school generally in good condition. Repairs to the rest rooms in the gymnasium are needed. The ceiling in the kitchen needs repair. Some type of runner is needed on the stairs. We request these repairs and improvements be made as soon as possible. WHITE OAK SCHOOL We find this school to be in good con dition. Because of the problem of mud during rainy periods, we recommend that the playground be surfaced with asphalt. This would also provide better parking for school buses. We find that the old building needs painting. We recommend these improvements be made as soon as possible.
