Service Forester
Periodic aerial surveys are
conducted by the North Caro*
Una Forest Service to deter
mine insect infested areas n
our woodland, A recently
completed survey in the eight
counties served by the Eliza
beth City District office in
dicates a decrease in pine
bark beetle activity.
After several years of
buildup, the Southern Pine
Beetle seems to be on the
wane in our area. I under
stand that this is generally
true over the entire state.
There are several bark beetles
that may kill pines. How
ever, the Southern Pine
Beetle is considered to be the
most destructive. It attacks
pines of all sizes and can kill
apparently vigorous trees.
During the aerial surveys
each county is systematically
covered by flying north and
south lines about two miles
apart. Infested spots show
up as dead or dying patches
of trees. These, spots are
plotted on aerial photographs
carried by the survey crew.
A poloroid camera may be
used to take color snapshots
of the spot. These snapshots
are often useful in locating
the infested spot on the
ground. They may be used
to convince landowners of
the seriousness of the infes
tation if that person cannot
visit -the woods with the For
est Service representative.
After the aerial survey the
spots are ground checked to
determine the pest respons
ible, severity and to offer
suggestions for control if ne

Wayside Pulpit
D. E. EARNHARDT
Text; “Sirs, lie would see
Jesus.”—John 12:21.
The devil and his crowd
tried to claim Abraham Lin
coln as one cf 'theirs. Heie
are the facts: Five preachers
were appointed to visit Presi
dent Lincoln and ask him
about his religious beliefs.
Mr. Lincoln explained to them
that when he became Presi
dent he was not a Christian,
but when he went to Gettys
burg and saw the graves l ' of
his soldiers his heart broke
and he accepted Jesus Christ
as his Saviour. He explained
that he was still looking for
a church with the creed,
“Love God with all your heart
and your neighbor as your
self.”
You cannot have a creed
shorter than that or,e without
leaving out a main essential.
You cannot have a creed
longer than that without
adding a non essential. The
two hundred and sixty-four
denominations in the United
States could become one
church without losing any
thing but excess baggage.

THE CHOWAN HERALD
Make Going To Church A Habit
GOD CREATES A COMMUNITY
International Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 10
Lesson Text: Exodus 19; I Peter 2:1-10.
The purpose of this lesson is to Show that
God’s overreaching aim was to create a people
in His Name.
«
Today we live in a fluid society, but not ne
cessarily more so than in Biblical times. As
the Bible will aibstantiate, before, during and
after the binth of Christ, the people of one Und
flowed into that of another, almost increasingly.
Wars were fought, and the vanquished became
the slaves ot the victors, often transported en
masse for labor within the conquering
countries. Consequently there was a cer
tain amount of inter - marrying, so therefor*
it can be safely sain that the “mixed multitude”
that went out of Egypt with the children of
Israel, in search of the Promised Land was just
that. Later, joined by the Midanites (into whose
'tribe Moses married) this varied community
became a united nation in search of a common
goal—a people who entered into a covenant re
lationship with God.
The importance of the Exodus cannot pos
sibly be over-rated by Christians everywhere,
in the light of what followed. Prophets and
psalmists alike, in later years, were to make
the Exodus the recurring theme of their mes
sages to mankind, both in praise of God for His
faithfulness and concern, and in condemnation
of the sinning of the people, who were lulled
by prosperity as opposed to their former trials
and tribulations. The Exodus, in short, became
a turning point in the history of mankind, and
has been immortalized in the Feast of tthe Pass
over. The welding of a nation was made pos
sible for Israel by a divine act of deliverance.
Membership in the Church, today,.is made pos
sible for us because God provided away of
salvation from sin and spiritual rebirth in the
Person of His Son, Jesus Christ.
The rescue of Israel, however, from the bonds
of Egypt, was not for the glorification of Israel
alone; it was to bring her (Israel) to a glorious
communion with God, in an advancement of His
plan for mankind. In short, God’s own chosen
people were to have access to Him through
their prayers and their deeds, through the able
leadership which He had provided them. Thus
a “holy nation” was formed separate from
other nations, in relation to sin, and peculiar
to God in relation to service. That Israel failed
to honor this very personal covenant with God
proved to be her undoing. She did, however,
fulfill her appointed purpose, for, through her,
a faith based both on revelation and experience
was given to the Christian world as we know
it today. For, disappointed in Israel’s actions,
God turned to a new vehicle to fulfill His pur
poses—the Church. Paul, even before the actual
coining of Christ, foretold of the institution of
believers that would be welded into the Church,
and this is how tve know it today.
It therefore follows that we, who profess to

It's after*hours. Yet most of the windows are bright. Perhaps
the cleaning crew is at work, or a few executives catching up on ®
their mail.
Whatever the reason, the lighted windows glow with purpose.
The dark windows are blank, austere and forbidding. What differ
ence one flick of a light switch can make!
People are like the windows ot this buildingf'Sente, rbdiant
with the joy of living, find days full, happy and usbfuL They are
fun to be around. Others, gloomy and sad, find life lonely and
meaningless. Their company is tedious.
What makes the difference? Where can you turn if life seems
troublesome? You can't flick a switch to change an attitude. 7_7_t3LHßsjE3_
The secret is in your church. Worship and study there, and wel- \\\\
come the living presence of God into your heart and mind. Your .-jLi-J
whole life will be lighted and your days filled with new happiness.
