Stoney "Let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.' James 1:19 What sound common sense this is. Yet, how often we for get this advice. More than enough of our troubled rela tionships spring from a thought less and hasty rushing into speech before we stop to list en, Mnrp often than not this hasty speech leads fo arlgry words and the anger has as its product a breach in human fellowship which angry pride on the one side and a wound ed spirit on the other are un willing to heal. By the grace of God we can learn to listen carefully and charitably to others' views, to think before we speak and then in love to say only what is true, kind and necessary. Above all re membering our Lord who, in the face of man's insults, was silent we can learn to take re bukes and harsh words with gentleness, however deep the wounds. 0 Almighty God, who alone canst order the unruly wills and affections of sinful men; Grant unto thy people, that they may love the things which thou commandest, and desire that which thou dost promise; that so, among the sundry and manifold changes of the world, our hearts may surely there be fixed, where true joys are to be found; through Jesus Christ our Lord, h?w (Prow Forward, Day by Day.)

Mr. Albert Button of Albany, | New York, was a weekend guest of Mr. and Mrs. W. Pry-' or Rodwell, Jr Warrenton Rural Fire News By BILL CONNELL NO FIRES THIS WEEK! We are very glad to have Jules Banzet back on activt duty, following a two-yeai leave of absence. This week we want to talk a little about a fire house. Thf WRFD, now about seven years old. has never had a home il could call its own. Through the generosity of two business men of Warrenton they have set up in a temporary home which the Company deeply ap preciates. However, a permanent home j is most highly desired at the present time. It is not a ques tion of funds for building the fire house, but a question of a piece of real estate upon which to put it. With a piece of land under deed or a long term lease this writer believes that a permanent fire house for the parent company of the WRFD could become a reality before the end of the vear. ! The WRFD has a bit more of a piobiem along this line than do the Auxiliary Com panies. The par-nt company has agreed to furnish lo any community in the county a well equipped fire truck once they, meet certain minimum specifi cations. They are: a house in j which to house the equipment, a group of men sufficient to | operate a fire company, keep | truck in good mechanical con dition Any major repair on! replacement will be therespon-! sibility of the parent company, that is hose, pump, tires or motor repair. So you can see that the only financial respon sibility the Auxiliary Company has is the fire house There are two nice ones in the coun ty now and a third under con struction. Whereas, the Warrenton com pany has the obligation, in ad dition to keeping up the Aux iliaries. of maintaining four trucks stationed in Warrenton and also building new trucks to go into the county to com munities that have requested them. All but one of the seven units now in use have been built by the firemen at the fire house. While building a truck in the present location, one of the four local trucks has to be left outdoors due to lack , of room. Trucks have to be moved out to hold meetings. Would that someone would come up with a piece of land in or around Warrenton suit able for a fire house. Look at your neighboring counties. Vance County has a modern brick building, Nash County at Red Oak, and Rocky Mount, Wake County at Rolesville and several locations. Let's catch up with them in housing.

TO THE VOTERS OF WARREN COUNTY I wish to state my reasons in calling for a second primary for the position of Coroner of Warren County. This decision was reached after serious and careful study and much dis cussion with many of the voters of the county. With encouragement from them, I therefore felt it was my civic duty to proceed to fill the need and responsiblity of the position for Coroner. Below I list several of the reasons this important position should be filled by the peison of your choice. The Coroner is a bonded and elective of ficer and must work in close cooperatioin with the law enforcement officers of the county and state. He is required to make inquests and preliminary hearings whenever it appears that a deceased person came to his death by crimi nal act or default of some person. In cases where the deceased has appeared to have died from natural causes, the Coroner will make his findings and his personal investi gations and file a written report of same. This entails close harmony and working with the doctors of the county to determine causes of natural death. In accidents, traffic or otherwise, the Coroner will make reports and investigations working with local and state law enforcement officers, and when necessary will summon witnesses and jurors of six good, lawful men when more investigations are necessary. The duty of Coroner, as part of your county government, carries an important re sponsible phase of local government, there fore I solicit the vote of the people in this second primary. I feel that I am well qualified to handle the duties of Coroner by my past service to this area. 1. I represent Civil Air Patrol in the local area checking and investigations of local air crashes and assist in other parts of the state when called upon. I have trained in First Aid for the past eight years, along with the above training. 2. I am a member of the local Lions Club, a Mason and have worked with all Civic en-v deavors in the county, helping W a r r e n County's good name. 3. I have worked with teen-age training in the past eight years to over 100 local boys and girls in character and citizenship building. My leadership and experience are some of the reasons I feel that if elected as Coroner, will enable rae to represent the people of Warren County in a professional and digni fied office. I have been manager of Loughlin-Good wyn Jewelry Store in Warrenton for the past fifteen years. YOUR VOTE JUNE 23 WILL BE APPRECIATED! A. C.
