.1 18 THE CAROLINA TIMES &AT MAY 22, 1976 WRITERS FOMUM t- By George B. Russ ? . The winners of the coveted title "Mother of the Year it Union Baptist Church, was captured by two beautiful Christian women active church women. A great deal more in terest is manifested in the annual selection than many suspect. The apparent non chalance on the part of the membership is a facade, even when a voter is seen check marking the name of his favorite candidate listed on the ballot, it is not uncom mon to hear a blushing voter say. "! don't care who wins. I just go along with ih action. Th" committee asked that th church members mark th" ballot, so I am going along with th" program." You're safe in saying. "I get th' message." In this way, you don't commit yourself: you haven't agreed nor have you discouraged a potential voter. One might say. "it is too early in the game to say that "This year's voter trend that the average voter pcrfers the matured, self-poised woman, quiet in repose, with charms defined and pro nounced, majestic in carriage, serene and dignified in de portment, rather than the laughing, pulsating young beauties or the austere senior citizen type. Howbeit. the marked ballots show a defi nite trend toward the middle aged woman. An across the board count of the voles re vealed a scaracity of votes for the very young candidates: a wider interest for the elderly: but the reatest interest was shown for the middle age woman: so much so. that two women were elected from this category: Mrs. Elizabeth Jones and Mrs. Josephine Turner. Both are fine, active, outstanding Christian women: each serving humanity to the best of her ability in her own distinctive way. Mrs. Jones is a nurse, widely acclaimed by many persons who have had occasion to share her pro fessional service; i "nurse Jones is what's happening." The amiable Mrs, Jones, aside from her duties at the Duke University Medical Center, is president of the Licensed Practical Nurses Assn. and 2nd vice president of its Executive Board. Twenty four years of dedicated services to the sick and suffer' tng. aside from vast exper ience, has wrought for Mrs; Jones a goodness of heart and purity of life. She is the mother of three children: 2 sons and I daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Jones are re sidents of S. Plum Street. Besides her professional in terests, she is president of the popular Thrifty Savings Club., an active member of the Senior Usher Board and an advisor to the Young Adult Ushers. Mrs. Josephine E. Turner, serves the Durham commun ity as a humanitarian in a different area from Mrs. Eliz abeth Jones. Mrs. Turner is concerned with, the living conditions of the people, pri marily, those of the East End ' Community: better housing, police protection, better paying jobs for the average heads of families: better lighting, etc. She works with the zeal of martyr, the persis tence of a minister, the cour age of a lion, the love of a mother. She is 46 person; strong and courageous; gentle and tender. Real beauty de pends upon these three good health, good temper and good manners. Mrs. Turner is generously endowed with all three qualities. She is wonder ful mother, grandmother, she has four children; Mrs. Jacau elmc Burch, Lawerence Lee, Thomas Alien and Alava Ena. Sandra and Bcsty Burch is a pair of happy, well-adjusted grandchildren. Mrs. Turner lives at 1 208 Hanover Street; she is an active member of Union . Baptist Church, Captain of UBC Pastor's Aid Society; Worship Chaplain of the ; Helping Hand Missionary Circle: Worship Chaplain of ! Kyhoo . Division of the Y. W, "C. A.: an active member of the Progressive Mother's also Mrs. Turner is a Board member of PAC - Policy Advisory Committee of Operation Breakthrough. Both Mothers' of the Year were recipents of b beautiful corsages and-Gold Star Plaques. Mrs. Mary Shaw Gentry, founder and director of the Junior Male Chorus was honored. A handsome plaque Was presented to her by Nikki Ross "from the boys" for her love and kindness throughout Vtlic years." In accepting the plaque. Mrs. Gentry expressed great surprise and joy. M am very much sur prised, I had no dreams that the boys were thinking of me in this way. I love my boys my love for them keeps me alive from day to day." Mrs. Madie Tucker was also the recipient of a hand some gift wrapped package and a corsage from the Russ Sanders Singers Dorcas Class. The popular Mrs. Tucker was elected, unknow ingly, by the members of both organizations. Mrs. Zola Barbee was re membered in a very special way by members of the Bar bee clan: children, grand children and great grand children. In a simple cere mony, Mrs. Annie E. Daniels, daughter of Mrs. Barbee, presented the church a check in Loving Rememberance of Mrs. Zola Barbee. Mrs. Myrtle Haskins was praised for outstanding ser vices to Dr. Grady D. Davis and his pulpit associates. LI. MRS. MYRTLE HASKINS Each Sunday, dinner is pre pared for Dr. Davis and as many persons as he cares to bring with him to dinner.
