paying of bills for a new vocational center.
The Robeson County Board of Commissioners tabled a re
quest from the Red Springs Board of Education for J575,000 to
finish the project until the county board meets again Aug. 18.
Robeson County attorney Joseph C. Ward Jr. hopes to know if
bond attorneys will go ahead with the sale of W million in
school bonds despite the pending discrimination suit.
Two other school systems in Robeson County requested con
struction funds Monday. The St. Pauls Board of Education was
told it would have to wait until the bonds are sold before it can
go ahead with the construction of a $l,5-million high school.
The Fairmont Board of Education, however, was granted
{196,000 for new construction because the funds reportedly had
been promised last February as part of the school system’s
allocation from $8 million in bonds sold last September,
Ward said the existing situation of having school bonds up for
sale and having a lawsuit pending is unprecedented in the
county. He said county school bonds have not been sold in
Robeson for about 20 years.
The federal civil legal action, filed in June, alleges the county
commissioners and officials from the five school systems in
Robeson have artificially manipulated the school system lines
to maintain racially segregated school systems.
The Red Springs school system has had to request additional
construction funds over and above their bond funds allocation to
date because of an underestimation of the costs involved.
Faith and prayer.
"Prayer is the key to Heaven,
but Faith unlocks the door."
Webster defines Faith as
belief. All of us have to believe
in something or someone.
How often do we find our faith
misplaced! The agony of dis
appointment and heartbreak is
often the result of lost con
fidence or "misplaced" faith.
One way to avoid a continual
occurence of this is to learn the
value of prayer.
A plaque upon my bedroom
wall
Bears three small words you
may recall:
1 cannot say the words are
new.
But. oh, they are steadfast and
true.
The plaque itself is verv old-;
But it is worth its weight in
gold.
Out of the darkness of the
night
It seems to shed a ray of light.
I love it for the peace it brings;
It simply says. "PRAYER
CHANGES THINGS."
--Laura Baker Haynes
In my collection of writings
on prayer. I have a story by
the Rev. A. Purnell Bally.
"A Layman who was known
widely for his use of the term
'Amen.' was asked on one
occasion why he used it.
"Just what does ‘amen’
mean?" asked a curious
friend.
"The'sincere b|»ther replied.
"In most cases'Si Joeans just
this to me: 'Yes. Lprd, I'm
with it. and I'll stand my share
of the expenses.'
"What do you mean when
you say ‘amen’ at the end of
your prayers?" he was asked.
“When 1 say- 'amen' at the
end of a prayer I mean just
this; God I'm working with you
that this may be true, but I'm
willing to receive any one of
your three replies-yes, no, or
wait.' "
Did you ever listen to the
prayers of' a 'Child? They
usually pray so unselfishly.
Always they are concerned
about the family members,
their friends, theirpets. all the
time not remembering to ask
for blessings on themselves.
What a lesson there is to be
learned for prayer that it may
be effective, that others will be
our first concern. Too often we
fake time to "say a prayer"
when we are in trouble, or
when we want a special favor.
How many times do we forget
to really thank God for all the
beauty that is ours to enjoy.
When we awake in the morn
ing, the very first thing we
should do is to give thanks to
God that He has permitted us
lo awake to another day. Then,
we should ask-ask for suf
ficient grace to carry us
through the day.
You will be surprised how
much easier the day will go
when you take a moment to
"talk" with your Father in
Heaven. Remember to thank
Him, in the ways of a little
child, and you will have more
happiness than you've ever
known before.
If you want to deepen your
prayer life, study the prayer
Jesus prayed in the Garden of
Gerhsemane (Luke 22:39-46).
Here are seven steps to
spiritual strength contained in
Christ's Gethsemane exper

FAMILY PRAYER
When I was just a little child
So oft at the close of day.
My Dad would call the family
together
And we would kneel to pray.
He always gave thanks for his
family
Sometimes calling each one by
name,
I knew that he'd feel better
He just didn't look the same.
The years passed slowly
onward
And each of us older grew.
Dad still prayed to the father
To bring us all safely through.
One by one. we all left home
Our destiny to pursue.
But we’ve always been in
fluenced
By the teachings that we
knew.
Now Mom and Dad's lives
here are over
To heaven they've already
gone
But at the close of day I
wonder
If they aren't calling the
children home.
If even one of our achieve
ments
Can be valued here as "fair."
We'll have to give the credit
To- a home where there was
family prayer.
-Anne St. John
NOW
THEN: Through the 17th
century, the dominant phil
osophy of education was
rooted in the belief that the
mind was a muscle. Like
any other muscle, it would
be strengthened by exercise.
And so it was: Children
were made to memorize and
recite by rote—and not
much more.
NOW: We recognize learn
ing as a complex, develop
mental process that pro
ceeds at a different rate
with every individual. The
importance of individual
ized teaching is underscored
by the growing use of com
puter-based instruction,
such as the PLATO system
developed by Control Data
Corp. and used throughout
the country to teach basic
skills.
