K Office Opened In Nation's Capital Governor Jim Holshouser announced that the State opened a North Carolina Washington office on Thur sday Jan. 16. Heading up the office is Mrs. Recite B. Stewart, who has served as director of the Connecticut’s Washington office for the past three years. The suite, consisting of three offices and a reception area, is located at 1100 Seventeenth Street, Nor thwest. The North Carolina Washington office is a part of the Department of Ad ministration’s Office of In tergovernmental Relations, established by the Governor in April, 1974, to improve communication and coopertion among the various levels of government. “With the success of so many of the State’s programs today being dependent on the federal government, it is essential for the state to have a continuous link with Washington,’’ the Governor said. The Governor emphasized that the office would work closely with the State’s Congressional delegation as well as various federal agencies. “This office will be able to assist the Congressmen in keeping them aware of the state’s programs and priorities as well as assessing the impact on North Carolina of proposed legislation,” he explained. Serving as assistant director is William A. Crews, Jr., a Thomasville native who is currently Congressional Liaison for the Office of In tergovernmental Relations. The Governor said he was particularly pleased that Mrs. Stewart had agreed to serve as director of the office. He noted that she had also served as special assistant for transportation to Connecticut Governor Thomas J. Meskill. “While in Washington, Mrs. wewart was instrumental in hleping the state of Con necticut receive more federal highway funds. Since North Carolina is a donor state contributing more highway funds than it receives back, we will be looking to improve this situation in particular. Approval for a 24 V4 month lease was granted during a meeting of the Council of 1 State. Rental for the 780 square feet will be $5,655 a year, or $7.25 per square foot, including utilities and ianitorial services.

ALASTAIR WALKER Sunday School Campaign Bible Discussions Are Invigorating BY. DONALD F. BUNION. JR. Pastor Grace Baptist Church A crisis occurs in thousands of homes every Sunday morning. The alarm sounds and a decision has to be made of whether to stay in bed and sleep late, or to get up and get ready for Sunday School. Surprisingly enough, con sidering our almost universal hostility toward alarm clocks, Sunday School often wins the battle, luring the bleary-eyed out of bed and on to church. The reason for this achievement, is that the Sunday School hour is more refreshing and invigorating than that extra hour of sleep. The opportunity of meeting with men, women, or young people of about your own age to discuss the issues of daily life in light of the Bible is stimulating. Most of us take little time in our busy schedules to stop and think about how we are living our lives, and Sunday School hleps us do this as part of our worship of God. If you are a veteran of many alarm clock wars, but still haven’t found the satisfaction of regular Sunday School attendance, I encourage you to try Sunday School this week. It is an opportunity for fellowship and reflection, for Bible study and worship. Sunday School is an hour well spent. Attendance figures for Sunday School in Transylvania County churches for last Sunday are the following: Calvary Baptist 177 Brevard-Davidson River Presbyterian 135 Brevard Wesleyan 148 Carr’s Hill Baptist 73 Catholic % Cherryfield Baptist '■ 97 Church of God 154 English Chapel United Methodist 12 Enon Baptist 69 First Baptist 334 First United Methodist 224 Grace Baptist 119 Little River Baptist 127 Morningside Baptist 80 Mt.
