The races were under the direction of Graham Pope, cub master of Pack 404 which is sponsored by the Raeford Prcsbvterian Church. ' Before the races began all the 32 scouts were in the pits oiling, checking and weighing their cars in hopes that their cars would cross the finish first and advance them to the finals. The track is especially designed for this type racing and resembles a miniature ski jump without the drop off. It has two runways with the finish line at the bottom of the slope. A lever at the top releases both cars simultaneously. The cars must make a run on each side of the track so as to have an equal chance The race continues until all but the winner is eliminated. After each Scout was beaten he showed good sportsmanship by taking his seat and cheering for his buddy. The judges for the races were Benny McLeod and Chan Roberts. Judges for the best model were Mayor McLean and Jesse Peoples. As a boy I never was successful in building model airplanes. My problem was that I always wanted to start building them without taking the time to read the instructions which, at a glance, seemed too long and involved. Consequently, 1 finished few of them and those I finished were something less than what was intended by the manufacturer. This desire for shortcuts is common to many of us. We want to cross home plate befure we have touched first base. We all would like the finished product, but few of us are willing to take the preliminary steps the product requires. We desire to be powerful, effective disciples of jesus Christ, yet we shun the necessary first steps that must be taken along the way to that goal. We all would like to be graduates of the school of Christian living, but without having gone through! the elementary grades of growth and development. A number of years ago a young stranger came to my study door. He told me that he had recently received a call into the Christian ministry. He had spoken to his pastor and the official bodyol his church, but when he learned that his denomination required four years of college and three years of seminary, he decided that he would have to look elsewhere. "I still believe God wants me to be a preacher," he told me, "but I can't see going through all that education when I'm ready to begin now. As he was driving by our church, the thought had occured to him that perhaps our denomination was less demanding in its requirements. "Isn't there some easier way?", he wanted to know. When I assured him there was not, he thanked me and left, never to return. The disciples of Jesus might have experienced similar feelings. He had begun by calling them to "Follow me and I will make you to become fishers of men". (Mark 1:17 RSV) By the time we came to Mark 6, much has happened, but they still have not been sent oul on their own. Now, at least, he is going to send them on then first "fishing trip." Let us note, however, that he sends them forth only after they have completed a certain amount of training and preparation with hire. They have spent many days listening to his preaching and teaching, witnessing his miracles, talking privately with him, praying and worshipping with him. They are nol finished in their total preparation, but they are now ready to go forth for their first "solo" mission. Often we lack that kind of patience. We become discouraged if we cannot reap the fruits of that which comes only after much practice, perseverance, and discipline. Shortly after writer Thomas Carlyle died, two friends met on a foggy London street. "So Carlyle is dead," said one. "Yes," replied the other, "he is gone, but he did me a very good turn once." "Did you ever see him or hear him?" his friend wanted to know. "No," replied the other, "but once when I was younger I became utterly discouraged and aid not care whether I lived or died. One gloomy night, feeling I could stand my distress no longer, I wandered into a library where I found one of Carlyle's books. Sartor Resarlus, lying open. My eye fell upon one marked sentence: Do the duty which lies nearest thee; which thou knowest to be a duty. The second duty will already become clearer. That sentence was a flash of hghning in my dark soul."
