Benedict ^^jUjULQJLSLOJLCJi C_Q SULS.S More Migrants A call from Clarence Keith on Brierbrook Road caused me to drop the proof read ing and grab the camera this morning (Thursday) to try to get a picture for you of the flock of Canadian geese in the field along the In-the Oak- property. All the way out there and back I kept trying to recall the song that was so popular several years ago “My heart knows what the wild goose knows, and 1 must go where the wild goose goes.'' There were 18 of these beauties, like most wild life apparently unconcerned about traffic, but when Mrs. Hil fiker and I walked across the field to get within camera range, they too walked, but in the opposite direction. One shot I did get but not close enough to even distin guish them from the back- , ground. i Keith said they circled over i about 9 this morning, but un til “Footsie” Goodman called bis attention to them he did , not know that had lighted , in the field. Where they , came from, or why, is any- i one's guess. Many are from Canada when these took off ; they headed without hesita- ] tion to the south, destination possibly South Carolina or i even farther south. , Pat Nugent here at the i NEWS says that old timers , say when the geese fly south it is because the weather has turned cold up north. They appeared to be resting, al- > though they may have been t feeding as they strolled along. | What next? Week before ] last and last week it was the monarch butterfly. i Marquetry If you have been following the activities of the boys and girls in the North Fork Ra ven’s club you have noticed their interest and accomplish ment with marquetry. For a close look at the pictures made by these club members un der the tutelage of Dr. Lil lian Rich, notice on the wall at the Northwestern Bank where they are displayed. Some of them approach the professional look (at least to a non-pro such as I). The proper fitting of these tiny sawed pieces of wood to make a scene, takes patience as well as endurance, and is a /LQJLOJUUULlLJUUULSUULflJUl. 1 ■.—..— I new hobby which is gaining in favor. You will notice that most of the color in these pictures comes from the woods themselves, with a spot here and there given a touch if paint such as in leaves and eyes. Perhaps you have seen the ivork done by a Mr. Bader, member of the Southern Ap palachian Crafts Guild as he displays his work each year luring the Fair. The finish ed product is quite expensive ind such a hobby could well become a fine source of in •ome for any of these young sters in future years. \'outh Work Continues Even if the regular season pf the Operation Youth re •reation program has ended :he work continues in another field and from another source. William Coulter, physical .duration major, and teacher it the Black Mountain elemen tary school this year, is carry ng on an after school train ng period with the seventh pud eighth grade boys in foot jall. This is the type activity Operation Youth had hoped to parry out in the school with the aid of a part time di rector and the teachers. Somehow, the way it was set jp and because of conflicts, it never worked. This year the boys have an enthusias tic leader in Mr. Coulter and they are VERY interested in earning the fundamentals of football. This is important to them because they must com pete in high school for posi tions on the team with boys who have been trained since »arly years and they are at a disadvantage. This training will show when the whistle blows for next fall’s practice ind in years to come. School Improvements While at the school to see tha above named gentleman Mrs. ICnight gave me a tour to : how the latest playground improvements. Pictured else where you will see a part of the school grounds toward the north side that perhaps you’ve never noticed before. The concrete basketball court has been literally “unearthed” end is now in use as is the volley ball court. With the removal of weeds which had covered the whole area and sand now filling all other L^pace, the playground ares has been considerably en larged. Just in time to set these improvements Dr. Hof fman, member of the South ern Association team, visitec the school and seemed ini pressed that suggestions math by the group last spring art neing carried out.

Byrd Road off Crag Service Human Harmony Lesson for October 8, 1963 Rible Material: I Corinthians 1 through 4. Devotional Reading: Ephesians4:1-7. 0 ONE needs to be told that ' harmony is one of the great laws of the Universe; some would say the greatest. This does not mean that we always find har mony where it ought to be, or that it is easy to produce and to maintain. It does mean that failure of harmony where harmony should be is always baf fling and painful, and can be fatal. From the car en gine in which the cylinders do not work with the Dr. Foreman rhythm the de signers intended, on to the human being who is (as we say) “all to pieces,” loss of harmony is al ways bad. To live in harmony with yourself, your fellow men and God is the road to life, the road to peace. Broken harmonies When we look at life around us, we see tragic need for harmony in the very situations and institu tions where you would have a right to expect harmony of a high degree. Look at the American family today, look at the divorce problem. This is more than a mat ter of husband and wife bickering, as if their quarrels affected them selves alone. An able probation officer in a large American city has gone on record as saying he has yet to see a juvenile delin quent from a home where there was harmony between father and mother. The capital city of our country is plagued by crime of all sorts, and the authorities lay the blame less on the police force (who are doing all they can) than on the “breakdown of parental authority.” Homes where there is disruption between man and wife, parents and children, are no help to society, but sore places, trou ble-spots, breeders of disruption in other circles. When we turn from the family to almost any aspect of public life, what strikes the mind again is feuding—in business, social life, politic*!, even in the church. You would think that in the church oi Christ the very atmosphere would make quarrels impossible. Yet the experience of today mirrors the experience of the early Chris tian church. The same people to whom Paul writes as “sanctified in Christ Jesus,” and “not lacking in any spiritual gift,” are quarrel ing among themselves. The first three chapters of I Corinthians are devoted to this problem of quarreling Christians. me Basic nurmunj Paul brings out the truth that there is one basic harmony on which all others are built. Without i this basic harmony every other attempt at it falls in failure. This is the harmony between the Chris tian and God, and of course this means between the Christian and Christ. He does not so much urge the Christians to “behave” and to “make up” as he urges them to remember whose they are and whom they serve. It is through | God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit * —that the jarring factions in the | church find the solution of their 1 quarrels. The more we think of * other Christians as other Chris L tians and not just as others—out fl siders, opponents, roadblocks to H truth and progress—the closer we * shall come to that harmony which | in its perfection we shall never § see in this world. The church can g not come before God with its dif | ferences all ironed out, its har jjj monies restored, and offer God its | self-made harmony and peace as » a gift from us to Him. On the S contrary, the church’s disharmo nies, quarrels, factions, once we are truly united to Christ and de voted to His cause, will begin to perish for lack of pride, the essen tial diet of dissension. Motives What motives inspire those who seek harmony especially with their fellow-Christians? Is it that h we don’t want to be bothered by p arguments? Is it for efficiency’s sake that we lay our feuds aside? Is it that we want to present a solid front to the world? These may be motives, but not the best. Paul speaks of two motives pro ; moting true Christian harmony between man and man, in the church or out. One is the “fellow ship of our Lord Jesus." We be long to Him, every Christian does. I We belong neither less nor more i than others. Boasting and shoving t are out of order. The other mo ! tive is service for Christ. As Paul and Appollos are very different men, worked each in his way without conflict, so may all of us unite—not always in ideas, but always in Christian service.
