Thursday, September 26, 1974 Bandon Notebook By Eleanor F. Jackson BY KI.KANOR K. JACKSON 0,1 Friday might, at the "Govered Dish Supper" festivities, I passed a short note to Dr. W. J, B. Livingston, read: "Would you like to give me a short article each week that 1 would call, "Words from the Pastor” for “Bandon Notebook?” He answered: “I’ll try/' Here it is: “Can former President Nixon go down in tgctory as one of our greatest presidents?

Thus the guilty thief became a fresh, open door for all of us who suffer because of our unredeemed, rotten nature*. If the thief could be made clean, whole, right, by Christ, then the same can happen to meif I will sincerely, honestly, ask Christ. “This ex-thief became the One of the simplest ways to get more from your air conditioner according to Emerson Quiet Kooi, is to wash your filter at least once a month. A dirty filter causes reduced air flow and can cause unit efficiency to drop as much as 6 per cent and increase your utility bills accordingly. World’s greatest example of hope and Christ’s power. His action has given life to countless millions. So a man going to death in disgrace, died as a man of God because he took the only way open for humans, for cleaning up his life and putting himself right with the Universe. “No (resident has ever had a greater opportunity than former President Nixon, to be great. And he has time, while he has his mind and physical health. “The thief died on the cross. Mr. Nixon, after a confession sincerely and honestly asking Christ's forgiveness, might go on living for some time. I hope so. and if he will take the way of the thief, it may mean his refusing the ill-timed pardon, which so seriously has damaged President Ford. It may mean losing all his estates, and prison, but how little to lose, in return for peace and the great example he would set before us all! After all, what makes a president great? Is it not the example of strength, wisdom, honesty, that he gives? “It is not too late for Mr. Nixon. He can become the greatest of the all. And if the United States needs anything, now, it is the example of those in high positions to publicly call on the only hope for all of us, Christ! Am I boasting? Yes. sir! Christ is the only Cleanser and if Mr. Nixon will put off the “sheep-wolf” clothing in open honesty to the Man on the center cross, he will have made it!" —O— Talent, made up for smaller attendance at Friday’s "supper” and it was a relaxed evening. Mrs. Marie Rorrer, mother of Bandon’s new custodian, was there for the first time, and said she enjoyed it. Dr. Livingston gave the blessing. While the kitchen crew cleared away signs of food, others sang hymns to Myrtis Perry's accompaniment. Virginia and Len Koraska with Henry Ford sang.DaveLaphan and Virginia played the liveliest "chopsticks” this sideof China. Ruth Downend, Virginia’s mother, gave a piano solo; Annie Cooke, a vocal solo, and THE CHOWAN HERALD Myrtis accompanied herself as she belted out "Caledonia.” Irvin Rorrer surely loosened up the piano keys as he improvised and then played an original song, yet unnamed, but which Dr. Livingston suggested calling an “Arrowhead Concerto.” Margaret Bunting played her guitar with a thin dime, having lost her pick, as all sang. Emmett Bottoms had a few words that told of his enjoyment of everything. After Trudy and Dave sang a duet followed by an encore, the lights were dimmed and Dr. Livingston told one of the “Uncle Remus Tales” by Joel Chandler Harris. Remember them? Courtesy of Gus Perry a short movie, taken on the chapel lawn last summer, showed our missionary, Nita Pride, bidding us au revoir before leaving for Korea. “Butch” Smith told of things in Alaska where he and Rose met their newest grandson, before going on to Texas to visit more of their family. The evening's wind-up was an instrumental duet by Dave and Trudy... Dave blowing away on a “Humanatone” (nose flute) and Trudy on a “Melodica" ioral piano). —o— Back to more serious but pleasant hours: At Sunday School "Butch” Smith taught the adults about “Unifying a People” from Joshua 24, and it was Mrs. Fred (Annie iCooke’s turn to teach the juniors how to be loyal to the End". Mrs. W. F. (Butch) Smith had a birthday and we properly sang “Happy Birthday, dear Rose.” We had the organ-piano combo, so perfectly done by Mrs. Bunting and Mr. Smith. Ushers for both Sunday School and church were: Trus Bunting. Tom Dilday, Fred Jolly and Henry Skinner. New names were added to the prayer requests of last week: the Elliott family. V. T. Everton and Curtis (Trot) Leary., with a modest request of from Watson V. Blanchard, to help him perform his duties in the very best way. Visiting Rev. Glenn E. Bunch. Jr., from Edenton was invited to give the blessing and read the scriptural verses from Acts 17: 22-24. Dr. Livingston's sermon topic was, "Who Is God?” An article currently in the "Ladies Home Journal” by Malcolm Boyd, entitled, "Is God Young?” was suggested reading. It may surprise you to find what many college students answered. 4-H News BY JOSEPH GOODWIN Reporter The Yeopim The Yeopim 4-H club held its September meeting at the home of Mrs. Yates Parrish.

Eden ton-area Youth Plan "Foil Happening" Edenton-area youth are sponsoring a "Fall Happening" for four nights, beginning October 6. Albert Long, a former Durham insuranceman who bacame a youth evangelist in August. 1972, will keynote this special series of religious services for all denominations, to be held at Swain Auditorium. Service will begin at 7:30 o’clock, Monday through Wednesday. Long, one of two four-letter athletes in UNC’s history and the last to achieve that distinction, has been preaching and talking to youth groups since 1963. He tells this story about how he was "encouraged" to get into the youth ministry: He was 40 yers of age in 1972 and called a friend. Dr. Loren Young of Atlanta, Ga., a leader in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Long reports that he said "Loren, I’m 40. How long could I continue to be a bantam rooster to young people”. You’re 40. You look 30. You act 20. And you have the mind of a 10-year-old. Long said Young's answer helped him decide.

These were extremely helpful to school personnel in planning educational programs for the youth of our county. This year, we are seeking, over th year, you responses to periodic mini-polls. Such a poll is designed to give immediate feedback to the school system planning team on various issues. It is an effort on the part of the school system to incorporate the views of parents in the decision making process. This column will focus on questions in this week’s mini poll. One real concern of education is the issue of academic standards, grading and reporting pupil performance. The first two questions in the poll deal with whether an honor roll or class standing are needed; and, if parents prefer a numerical, or letter grade or written progress report on report cards. The whole area of pupil evaluation is of concern here. Your opinion regarding this matter will carry great weight as decisions are made regarding this particular area. Homework is something about which every parent typically has an opinion. Comments are hearer by school personnel that range from "Don't have enough”, “Have too much”, Should Be Graded". The question there is an attempt to gain concensus as to the fellings of parents and other citizens as to exactly how they feel. In the past year, several parents have expressed a desire to see a PTA reactivated. To ascertain feelings of the community regarding this facet of schools a question has been included Hopefully, there are many persons in the community who would like to learn more about the who. what. when, where, why and how of the operation of the school system: who have points of view or opinions they would like to express. To this end, the school system is trying to identify persons in the community who would be willing to host a member of the administrative staff and In Surrey, England, some peo ple still believe that too much lettuce in the kitchen garden will prevent a young wife from having children! interested friends or neighbors in their home. Others might wish to attend a meeting related to these topics. If you would be willling to do either, please indicate in the appropriate spaces on the questionaire. In that many citizens have not had an opportunity to view, first hand, much of the pain ing and renovation work that took place over the summer, or to see educational programs in action, the school system is contemplating sponsoring tours of each school. If you are interested in such an activity, please indicate on your sheet. Many persons feel a committment to making this community a better place to live through serving others.
