THEY HE AFTER YOUR CHILDREN Experts say the drug addict teaches an average of 6 other people his habit. Especially young people. The addicts prey on the unsuspecting. Research shows their easiest targets are the teenagers who don't under stand that heroin kills. Congress is Trying to Help This year there were four major votes in the House of Representatives on the civilian aspect of the drug prob lem. They were important votes. On good bills. One Congressman Didn't Help Os the four major drug votes Congressman Nick Galifianakis of the 4th district of North Carolina missed Every One. NICK GALIFIANAKIS HAS A 100% ABSENTEE RECORD ON THESE DRUG VOTES His record reads as follows: on Feb. 3 Galifianakis absent on Feb. 3 Galifianakis absent on Mar. 16 Galifianakis absent on May 1 Galifianakis absent Wayside Pulpit D. B. EARNHARDT Text: “Whence come wars among: you?”—Jame- 4:1. Love your enemies. This is not the kind of love that says sweet nothings and hugs and kisses. It means our hearts to wish them well and giving our effort to makei them better. We have tried shutting off trade and forming blockade, i We have tried propaganda in! Washington and our daughters have practiced improper-1 goose in Florida. We have! exchanged visits with Counts and no-aceounts. We have fired our firecrackers where they could smell them and they have accidentally shot down our planes while clean ing their guns. God made the atom and the Adam, 100. Now let the Adam so use the atom as to glorify the Maker. We play like it— j why don’t we pray like it. If we are God’s children, why don’t we favor Him. If He made war on us by cutting off the atmosphere, we would not sec the light of another day. Big fights often come from such little issues. When I was smaller than I am now, I used to hide behind a board fence and throw mud cakes into tile neighbor’s yard. When the neighbor’s boy came over to settle the account with me, I would go with him to help find the guilty party. FISHERMAN’S PARADISE The Chesapeake Bay Bridge- Tunnel spans some of the fin est fishing waters in the world. Virginia’s record catch of black drum, channel bass and cobia were all taken off Cape Charles, northern term inus of the 17.6 mile long crossing. We need a senator who will devote his full efforts to fighting the drug problem. A senator who will be there to introduce and vote for new and effective drug measures. We need a senator who cares about drug addiction and young people. “Where’s Nick?” A Congressman who was present for all four anti-drug votes told us that during the roll calls he would look across the floor of Congress at Galifianakis’ empty desk and ask himself, “Where’s Galifianakis? Where’s Nick?” You know what. Everytime we see a Galifianakis sticker, everytime we see a Galifiana kis billboard, everytime we see one of those expensive Galifianakis TV ads, we think about those missed drug votes. We think about the addicts who are trying to kill your children. And we ask ourselves the same question: “Where was Nick?” Where was Nick? Where was Nick? Sponsored by Doctors Against Drug Abuse HUBERT POTEAT, M.D., CHAIRMAN THE CHOWAN HERALD MAKE CHURCH - GOING ... A HABIT Social Change: Work and Leisure International Sunday School Lesson for Sept. 24 Lesson Text: Genesis 3:17-19; Exodus 20:8-11; Ecclesiastes 2:1 to 3:9: Colossians 3:17, 23. The account of the creation, as told in Genesis, stresses the fact that the Lord created the uni' verse in six days—and that on the seventh day He rested, proclaiming it the Sabbath. Today, times have changed so radically that we now find pressure being brought to bear in certain areas to reduce the accepted five-day working week to four working days—and some times even three. This is supposed to allow mord leisure time for the working individual—presum ably for boating, fishing, sailing, bowling —or whatever turns one on. On the other hand—-ranged against all these leisure-time advocates —is another group who' are in favor of keeping the stoics that service the public open seven days a week—presumably to gain ground in the race to capture the al mighty dollar. Somewhat naturally this leads concerned Chris tians to wonder what happened to the old fash ioned observance of the Sabbath Day, in com pliance with God's -stated commandment? De vout families used to desist from labor on the Sabbath, ahd spent the day between church and home, a tightly-knit and God-oriented family group. Is it too much to expect our modern world to gear themselves to God’s stated policy? After all, in His wisdom. He gave man the gift of work that he might enjoy the fruits of his labor upon the earth. Nor did He neglect man’s spiritual side, for He set aside the Sabbath as a day of rest, and one rn which man could give thanks for his many blessings. Now with the trend towards less and less work and more and more leisure time, one is forced to reflect that it is, indeed, odd that a nation who is so acutely conscious of the need for a balanced diet to keep the body healthy seems to' have a mental block when it comes to extending this provision for balance to the soul. We seem to go overboard in all directions, and seem to be utterly incapable of striking a happy medium. Too much work can become a drain on our physical beings; but too much leisure ean swiftly become a drain on our spiritual beings. For, bored bv an excessive amount of leisure time, we will tend to turn to the wrong outlets to allay that sense of boredom. The old adage of the devil finding work for idle hands to do, could Prove very apt. Christ, Himself, was a tireless worker. He worked for the good of humanity, and He seized His opportunities whenever and wherever they presented themselves. He set no eight hours per day on His labors, nor a thivty or forty hour week. And no man approached Him in need without claiming His time and attention. The rhythm of work and rest is found in the construction of the universe. God rested after He had fashioned it, and Jesus often took His disciples to a quiet place so that they might re store themselves with rest. A truly active church can make good use of the leisurb time of man: it can provide weekday activities that are rhurch-related. It can put this plentitudr of manpower to work on construc tive community efforts—visitation, work in the church library or the church kitchen—all as part of an active and concerned congregation. For leisure time is not an end in itself; ideally, it is - a means to an end. By planning constructive work in a completely different direction from that in which our daily lives arc channelled, we can turn leisure into terms of personal accom plishment in service, instead of into times of spiritual boredom. For Christian work is never done. Opportunities for service present them selves daily. Like Christ, we must hold our selves in readiness.
