Zebulon Weaver, Jr. Clerk of Superior Court of Buncombe County North Carolina Nov. 26; Dec. 3, 10, 1<> HM' 1 woulHPnritualuand one l Vhave realized that outside.Spi lng snow on the I remember once in latp 1 on°VSundar °f 1942 We got up on Sunday morning and found ' -round °f °f Sn0W > r,. ” m ! k1 was -1ust surc there - m id,ube no sei’vices of any ,• ^,nd that day; but my three sdnff nWCITT ™afle of sterner ■tuff than I. They put on over ‘irnnn I Yuapp<id Sunny sacks t-nni ,he!r legs llP to their Knees, and set out on foot, ch with a stick. I felt that they would soon be back; but no such thing! About 12:30 here they came trudging up the hill. I said, with both a declaration and a question in my voice, “You didn’t have services, did you?” Almost to gether the three voices said, “Aw, Mother, you were about the only one not there.” Do you think our many gadgets and all our luxuries have made any better Chris tians of us? In my childhood 1 can remember vividly getting up in the morning in a room that must have been about 20 degrees, running in Mama’s room to dress before the fire. The front of me would be nice and warm while the back of of me was freezing! After a hearty breakfast of ham, eggs, grits, and always that good home made molasses and cof fee, I had to take the cows to the pasture before I went to school. The school was a mile from my home. It never occurred to me to bemoan my late. I felt that I had so much. I was the oldest in a family of six children, later to become ten. I had a truly wonderful father and mother. On Sundays Papa hitched the horse to the open single buggy (it was my fondest dream to ride some day in a “top buggy with rub ber-tired wheels”. I never did.). Those who were old enough were dressed in their Sunday clothes. We had them then, and ’til this day I cannot get used to wearing my very best every day. Mama usually had to stay at home for there was always a little one to look af ter. There were no baby sit ters and no church nurseries in those days. In a busy life of sewing, cooking and looking after six children. Mama took time to visit. Papa would hitch ‘old Mag’ to the buggy. As many as could be packed in would go. We had a “little chair” that was put in the foot of the buggy. That was something to remember — visiting with Mama. We did a lot of plain living and high thinking in that precious home. And now as my mind goes out over this country of ours I see each one of those eight living children making great contributions to the communities and the churches of which they are members. I thank God that we were so privileged to grow up in such a home. Our father died just a year ago. On Jan. 17 of 1959 he would have been 88 years old. Well, well, well! You are probably bored with all this, so let’s draw in the wanderings of our minds and come up to date! Miss Josephine Pole from Canada, who was Miss Mary Speight’s roommate in World War I, is visiting here for some time. Mrs. L. H. Stepp recently uul a visit to Statesville to ■ isit a little new grandbaby, Jerry Douglas Styles, whose a a rents are Mr. and Mrs. W. Styles. Adrian Stepp and family rom Williamsburg, Va., were ’ecent, visitors of the Stepp amilv here. , H. Stepp, Jr. from Long icach, Calif., has been visiting lis parents for some time. Mrs. L. II. Stepp’s brother, i. I. Lewis from Albemarle, jpent a few days with his aster last week. Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Suther and have been visiting in Ireenville and Abbeville for i few days. Mrs. Walter McMahan has noved into the Denny residence lear Mrs. Hammond’s. Little David Gill spent Sat irday here with his sister, drs. Bill Wells. Chaplain Miller Jackson left Phursday for his post at Yuma, Vriz. While he was here a ong distance message came or him from Washington in orming him that by April 1 in would report for overseas luty in Italy. That will be a vonderful experience for the amily; but their going will urely leave a gap in our vil age that just cannot be filled. Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Moore of Lsheville spent the day with drs. Moore’s mother, Mrs. L. L Stepp, on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Larsen. Miss Vrvine Bell. Miss Betty Rush ng, Miss E. B. Blount, and Urs. Tom Walters went to Asheville Sunday afternoon to lear “The Messiah”, given by h e Asheville Community •horus and the Asheville Sym phony orchestra. It was a ;plendid rendition and certain y sets the stage for the true ibservance of Christmas. We were so glad to see Mrs. fight C Moore at Sunday ;chool and church Sunday. She ■eally has that indomitable ipirit that overcomes all ob itacles. On Wednesday night our of 'ieers and teachers will meet it the church at 6:30 for the •egular monthly meeting. Re nember your covered dish vhich makes up a part of our :upper. On Thursday night at 7:30 he Business Women’s circle ,vill meet at the parsonage for heir monthly meeting and ;heir Christmas party, this is me of the finest groups in nir church. Their wonderful jpirit and their contribution to pur church life are boundless. Last Tuesday at our Day of F’rayer we remembered espe cially the Bob Harrises in Lima, Peru, who are good "riends of the Hardins. On Sunday Mrs. Hardin had a Christmas card from them, some time ago their little son had been stricken with polio. They also have a little girl 10 years old. I think it is not put of order for me to give you the message of their card: “Joys This Season Brings” To be working again at a lask we had to leave unfin ished, To see Bobby happier and stronger each day, To watch Mary Carol put het whole heart into school and church activities. To wait for the Holy Night here with these you have neloed reach with its Glad Tidings, To wish for you a wonderful Christmas time. INFORMATION ON— (From Pago 1) people and in 1heir capacity for self-govemmeni. and they believed in him as the truest and best representative and exponent of their ideas and aspirations.” Vance has been dead for 66 years now and most, people to day—even in his native county —remember very little about his life except the offices he once held. To honor this Tar Heel im mortal, the State Department of Archives and History plans to restore the birthplace of Vance on the Recims Creek Road, some 12 miles northeast of Asheville. A date for the start of the restoration work has not yet been set, but prob ablv will come during the first half of 1960. To do an authentic restora tion, we need more informa tion on the old Vance house and on Vance himself, his an cestors and his descendants. (Col. David Vance, grandfather of Zeb Vance, built the first Vance house—a two-story log structure—about 1795. That dwelling stood for a century until it was torn down and re placed with a frame house which was in existence until only recently. We also need a quantity of old hand-made red bricks to rebuild the chimney (still standing) and a number of pine logs of various sizes, including about 20 which are at least 28 feet in length. Our budget is limited, so we hope to have some materials contributed to the project. That which is not given will be purchased. We will sincerely appreciate any information on the Vance house, the Vance family, and also the contribution of hand made bricks and pine logs. Sincerely, Bob Conway, Historic Site Specialist Zebulon B. Vance Birthplace Restoration, 45 Providence Road, Asheville. N. C. Visitors recently in the Gene Moore home were Joe Moore from Chapel Hill and Betty and Carol Pearson from Reids ville. Ralph, Betty’s husband, came and took his family home on Sunday. Stanley Moore called his folks yesterday from Texas. Some of Stanley's friends may want to write to him so I ask ed his ^mother for his address. Here it is: Stanley B. Moore, AF. 14692232, Flight 895, Box 1503. Lackland A.F.B., San Antonio, Texas. Do write him. Those of you who have had a son or a daughter away from these hills for the first time know just how the heart turns homeward and what a thrill the postmark ‘Ridgecrest" brings. W. M. Pate was at church and Sunday school yesterday looking so much improved. We are all so grateful and hope the trip to Winston-Salem Wednesday will give new en couragement. Mr. and Mrs. George Hudson from Charlotte have moved in to “Young’s Gift Shop” prop erty. SHOPE CREEK by Mrs. Thelma Buckner “Oak trees and maple trees, crimson and brown, russet and yellow leaves have all tum bled down.’’ And winter is again in the mountains with the odor of wood smoke strong in the air. We have a golden chain bush back of the house which has several blooms on it—a touch of spring mixed with winter. Mom had 10 of her family with her for supper Thanks giving night: her four daugh ters, one of her sons, and part of their families. We drew names for Christmas gifts. On Friday evening, Dec. 4, the girls of dept. No. 8 at Kearfott went to the S & W cafeteria for dinner and their Christmas party. Those at tending were: Evelyn Powers, Julia Morgan, Hazel Guffey, Eurene Styles, Joyce Knowl ton, Eller Davis, Margaret Laughrun, Marjorie Jarrell, and Nettie Ingle. Gifts were exchanged after which they all went to the home of Margaret Laughrun for cake and cof fee. Everyone had a lovely time. Wade Gregg spent the week end in Weaverville with his brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Marion Gregg. Mr. and Mrs. Burgin Clin ton Gregg celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary Nov. 29. Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Creas man and grandchildren, Ron nie and Cathy King, recently visited Mr. Marion King and family of Fairview. Dawn and Teresa, small daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Gregg, are feeling bet ter after having been sick with colds. ■Jesse Lee Gregg entered Memorial Mission hospital last week for x-rays. Fred J. Moody had a birth day Nov. 27. The Riceville Men’s club met at the club house Satur day evening, Dec. 5, for a steak fry. There was a good attendance. The W. M. S. of Berea Bap tist church will meet at the church on Wednesday eve ning, Dec. 9. Those partici pating in the Christmas pro gram will also meet at that time. REFLECTIONS— (From Page 1) They call the roll which must be answered by a healthy growl or roar in the best lion style, wild lion that is. The first name called was that of a Lion sitting across the table from me. When he let out with a terrific roar, I almost jumped out of my seat. This continued through out the roll. When they came to the name of an absent mem ber, someone gave his excuse. This is a good idea. Maybe that is one reason why the Robbinsville club has made such a good record. —R— STRANGE BUT TRUE The guy who brags about always saying what he thinks doesn't. —R— WHEN TO CALL YOUR PASTOR Many people have the idea that a pastor should be called American Ministers Visit Bible Lands mmm A group of 13 Americans from Louisiana returned recently from a month-long trip to the Middle East where they were guests of three Arab govern ments. The group was composed of seven Baptist ministers and wives, a doctor on the faculty of the Louisiana State University Medical School, a woman ac tive in church affairs, and a woman school teacher. Their tour through the Arab states took them from Cairo to Beirut, Baalbek, Damascus, Am man, Jericho, and Jerusalem. In Cairo they were received by Secretary-General Abdul Ivhalek Hassouna of the League of Arab States and Arab Christian and Muslim religious leaders. In Lebanon the group had an au dience with President i uad Shehab and with the Maromte Patriarch Meouchie. Jordan’s King Hussein wel comed them in Amman, and in Jerusalem the group toured the historical sites of the Holy Land. In all the countries, members of the group held discussions with civic and educational lex ers. The doctor was especially interested in public health edu cation and facilities in the Arab countries, and the teacher stud ied public education methods. The upper picture shows the group during a conference in Cairo with Ambassador Abdul Khalek Hassouna, Secretary General of the League of Arab States. The lower picture shows two of the American ministers chat ting with representatives of the different Islamic and Christian religious groups in the Gaza strip. only when someone is criti cally ill or when there is a death in the family. This rather limited view of the min istry is gradually being re placed these days by a wider and better understanding of the Christian minister in mo dern society. "In sickness and in health, in glad events as well as griev ous, a pastor is available to counsel his people,” writes Joseph E. McGabe in an article antitied “Twelve Times to Call ihe Minister”, which was pub lished in PRESBYTERIAN LIFE some time ago. Twelve situations are described and discussed in the following order: (1) Before going to the hospital, (2) when liquor be comes a problem. (3) before engaging a lawyer, (4) when a baby is born, (5) before a ^oung person goes away to oollege, (6) when facing a dif ficult decision, (7) when some one needs spiritual help, (8) oefore a church member enters Ihe armed services, (9) when j serviceman returns home, 10) when there is a death in she family, (11) when there is orolonged reaction to grief, 12) when spiritually depressed. You should make more use of your pastor. He is the shep herd of the flock to which you belong, and he has been called as pastor of your church in order that he may be useful in the guidance of the people. / He will be pleased, although it ^ may mean sacrifice and much work at times, to be called by his members when they have neetl for help. —Biblical Recorder • RENT IT - CLASSIFIEDS!
