It is a church established by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, U. S.A. , (now United Presbyteri an) designated to re resent ALL Presbyterians belonging to the faith in our nath-n. It is a beautiful church and has a very active deiicateu congregation. I belonged to that National fresbyterian Church and congregation in Washington. It was from this Church that our letters were transfeired to the Burnsville Presbyterian Church with which I am now a member. It seems to me that for any group of Christians to as sume a name such as this there should be some truth behind it. I dcr.ht that this newly formed group can legally keep the name they have chosen. It seems to me that instdldof testifying to the gospel and to our Lord Jesus Christ by word and deed, they are only attracting all attention to themselves and in so doing hurting and destroying. Jesus Christ has come. He is coming again—but He has come and has taught us the law of God and that is the law of love. "God is Love". Read I John*4 beginning es pecially with the 7th verse and on thru the chapter. There are those I believe that are looking far someone —a messiah—who will make all of our troubles disappear. They do not seem to realize that the true messiah has al ready come and the challenge is to us to live according to His Commandments. In these difficult times it is especially important for Christians to stand together and not to fracture the church by individual judgement on one another. Our Lord has given us some exact direction about this human fault: read Matthew, Chapter 7 and Romans, Chapter J 4.

Northwestern continues to pay the highest legal interest f rate to its customers by offering this new higher-rate Certificate of Deposit. Federal law and regulation prohibit thp payment of a time deposit prior to maturity unless three 'months of the interest thereon is forfeited and interest on the amount withdrawn is reduced to the passbook rate.

C 2MOT - The holidays brought nu - merous greetings, questions, responses, and other matters from area readers, some of which will be seen in this col umn and some responded toby letter. Especially welcome were another issue of Homespun, the excellent Davidson CountyyN. C.,Elementary Schools folk magazine, and several remin - iscences of early years by Ed win Judkins of 48 Holly Lane, Bristol, Virginia. Mr. Judkins 1 notations "were made in 197.1 while recoveritg from a heart attack and he has given permission for the mater ial to be used in this column. I shall take advantage of his offer in this column as well as in future editions. His first con iribution con cerns a visit to Marion, Va.just before the turn of the century. "The time, I would say,was in the gay nineties before the year nineteen hundred. My grandmother living in Rich Valley, Smyth County,Virginia, had two sisters living the county seat, and whom she visited about twice yearly". I accompanied her on these journeys. The trip of about 15 miles was across Walkers Moun tain at what was known as Shan non Gap, two miles up on the North side and three miles down on the South side coming out on Hungers Mother (Hungry Mother's) Creek. She always hired a neighbor to take her who had an old fashioned hack drawn by a pair of mules. We always stopped on top of the mountain to let the mules rest and to eat our lunch prepared for the occasion. I remember the mountain teabexries which grew in profusion on top of the mountain. Marion, the county seat, had many good stores, clothirg dry goods, restaurants, meat markets, photo gallery , mill! - nery, furniture, etc. I will pause here to say that one of the nearby stores burned one night following our arrival. I do not know of anything so chilling as to be awakened at two or three o'clock in the morning with the cry "Fire!" To help the economy of all thi“ were the covered wagons coming from Grayson County bringing their produce for sale and buying their supplies. They had for sale everything usually produced on a farm like hams, eggs, apples, etc., but also cranberries, maple cakes and syrup. I was impressed with cranberries as we did not have any in our section. One of the sisters was very fond of the sauce and served it regularly. Across the street from where the sister lived was a large va cant lot where the wagons park ed and camped for the night. If you would get up early you would see the occupants of the wagons getting breakfast on open fires, and I bet good food m <3fa SARAH BEAVER Sarah Laws Beaver, 77, of the Windom Community died in a Spruce Pine Hospital Thurs day morning after a short illness.

Burial was in the Hyatt Ceme t*ry. IRENE ANGEL Mis. Irene Galloway Angel, 78, of Cane River, Rt. 3, Burns ville, died unexpectedly Satur day morning in a doctors office in Burnsville. She was the wife of the late James N. Angel who died in 1967. Surviving are two daughters, Mr*. Glenn Rathbum of Route 3, Burnsville and Mrs. Charles Reel of Asheville; two brothers, Holly M. Galloway of West Pitta ton , Pa. and Walter Galloway of Camp Hill, Pa, Four grand children and four great grand children also survive. Funeral services were held at 2:00 p. m. Tuesday in Cane River Baptist Church of which she was a member. Rev. James Lamb and Rev.M.H. Kendall officiated and burial was in the church cemetery. too. You can also imagine the romances among the people. It is a safe bet that this me thod of marketing could be du plicated in many towns inthat age of our country. " Obviously Mr. Judkins has an accurate memory of those early Virginia days. I should hope that one of the historical groups in the Bristol area will get in touch with him to make permanent records of his re collections. trtfoeU...
