Thursday, September 7, 1972. News From Arrowhead Beach By Eleanor F. Jackson The Chowan Ruritans, that well known civic organization, Vrrived Monday night for a Supper prepared by the wom en of Bandon Chapel.

Ask NOT ONLY BOOKS —Al though books continue to form the largest part of our holdings in the Pettigrew Regional Library, we have steadily been building our collections of non-book ma terials. One of our popular services is the circulation of recordings. Just about every kind of music is represented and we own some spoken records—drama, poetry, short stories and historical events. The latest additions to the record collection in each li brary of 'the region have been mostly current, musicals and other popular music, includ ing jazz, folk music, rock groups and religious songs. All the records are available Sponsored By ELIZABETH CITY JUNIOR WOMAN'S ” CLUB Assisted By YESTERDAYS come presence, Bandon Cha pel has Mrs. Percy Nixon (Dorothy) to thank. As has been said before in this column, one member must wear many “hats” in a “beginning” church, such as Bandon Chapel. In this re spect, Mrs. Gus H. Perry filled in for the organist and for the secretary, also absent, Mrs. Gibson Hicks became the secretary pro tern. Having Kent Rowley available to lead in the singing rounded out a perfect Sabbath. AUXILIARY MEETING The Hospital Auxiliary will meet Monday morning, Sep tember 11 at 10 o'clock in the hospital cafeteria. All mem bers are urged to attend. to see the newest records next time you're in the library. SCREECHES CARE OF RECORDS ln order to serve the maximum number of patrons with these rather fragile materials, it is necessary’ to ask for co operation in the care of the records. Most of these sug gestions are jjrst a matter of using common sense and con sideration: 1. Please use stereo rec ords only on a stereo player. 2. Make sure you are using a good needle. 3. Never leave records in automobiles the sun will warp them. 4. Store records vertically, away from heat, out of the sun. CARD OF THANKS We want to thank our many friends for all acts of kind ness rendered to us during our time of bereavement. The food, flowers, visits and other tokens of love helped tremendously. Your prayers helped to sustain us during this sad time.
