HARDIN PHONE: NO 9-713* oonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnr. nN.inoonODOOOOO^ At the Church: Records for the church year closed with the work of Sep tember’s last Sunday and the new year begins with Octo ber. An unusually pood message by Pastor George L. Hocutt on ‘‘A Christian, A Pattern” was particularly fitting for the occasion. A brief bit of important business was transacted in the early part of the morning ser vice. John May, W. L. Snypes, and Paul Turner were elected as Deacons to serve in the vacancies created by the rotation of men who have been serving on the board for three years. Also, the church elected the new officers and teachers as presented by the nominating committee. Commodious Watauga Lodge has been used since the As sembly closed, by groups from Watauga Association in Ten nessee. Last weekend it was occupied l>y about forty mem mers of Intermediate Girls' Auxiliary for a special re treat.

Reeves for all of last week were Miss Sara Webb, Mrs. Virginia Harrison, and Miss Winnifred Filingrim, of Tus keegee, Ala. Peraonalc Mr. and Mrs. Willard Weeks spent the weekend of Sept. 21 in Chapel Hill. The chief reason for their visit was that as trustee of the N. C.

Hatcher promptly at 10:30 a.m., the meeting was opened with pray er led by Mrs. H. S. Brock man. Miss Caroline Biggers wa: the main speaker for the oc casion, giving in her warm per sonal way some echoes fron a most impressive address sh( had heard Dr. Ross Coggini make at Ridgecrest Assemblj last summer. Business was dispatched ef ficiently, the chief item bein^ the election of officers. The following slate was presented by the nominating committee and unanimously elected: Mrs. \V. L. Hatcher, presi dent and treasurer; Mrs. Thelma Griffin, vice-president and chairman of child wel fare; Miss Mamie Meeks, cor responding and recording sec retary; Mrs. Mamie Gough, spiritual life chairman; and Mrs. W. A. Devis, legislation chairman. Mrs. Hatcher mentioned that his year of 1964 marks the 90th birthday of the Na tional W.C.T.U. and the 20th anniversary of the Ridgecrest organization. To close the morning ses sion, Rev. Elbert F. Hardin brought a devotional message using as his topic, "The Stewardship of Influence”. This was timely and thought provoking and well received by his hearers. At 12:30 Rev. George L. Hocutt invoked blessing upon the delicious covered-dish lun cheon which was served on the long tables of the Lodge dining area. Mrs. Mary For tune assisted the hostess in this. Happy fellowship during the meal was continued further, as most of the group remained for a social around the log fire. Miss Biggers hail to leave early to catch a bus but those who have heard her are still discussing the challenge she brought. Below are some of the things she spoke from her heart: She said the invasion of the American home by bev erage alcohol is not a natural outgrowth of American cul ture, but is due largely to the intensive program of ad vertising and sales promotion of the liquor and brewing in dustries. As early as 1935 convention speakers for these industries openly urged tradesmen to “Teach women to drink . . . make youth liquor conscious.” In 1952 at a brewers’ ’convention in Chicago, a speaker declared, “Beer is now to be found in two out every three homes in America. It is the goal of the industry to put it in every home.” How well they are succeeding in more fright ening than people may real ize. Miss Biggers deplored the fact that Christians are “at ease in Zion,” and seeming ly indifferent while these big industries spend their millions to make liquor seem attrac tive and desirable. She thinks the magnitude of their ad vertising campaign may cause some to feel too weak or too few to fight the evil. “Why not get the revenue?” is the argument often used, even by Christians, to defend this monstrous wrong. Quot ing from a number of out by GORDON GREENWOOD NEW FIRE TRUCK The handsome new fir* truck ordered some time ag< by the Black Mountain Fir< Department, arrived last weel and has been placed in ser vice. It replaces the 192( model truck and makes it pos sible for the department tc keep the present classificatior which is 7. This permits the home own ers of the community to en joy the lo-w premiums which they are now paying. Just by way of explanation, in case the department had not bought the new truck, the insurance premiums on many properties would have in creased 40 per cent , and 100 per cent on some. The department has two full-time firemen, one on duty at all times, and 30 volun teers well tiained and ready for any emergency. A total of $3,000 of the $4,000 needed for the truck has been donated by citizens and industries of the com munity. Total cost of the truck is $16,500. If the com munity can raise the $4,000, the Town of Illack Mountain will assume the final pay ment of $12,500. An extra $1,000 is needed now. Make your checks pay able to the Black Mountain Fire Department and mail to the Town Hall. You will al ways be glad you did. Black Mountain has one of the best equipped and best trained volunteer fire depart ments in North Carolina. They stand ready day or night 365 days per year to come when needed. You can show your appre ciation by helping now. The need is urgent. The time is short. OUR WHITE SOCKS I’m sorry Chet Sobol has been sick for the past few weeks and has not been around to suffer with me as the Chicago White Sox all but folded up in the drive for the pennant. Ul course the iialtimore Orioles did the same thing on a much bigger scale, but their affair is none of out business. Chet, manager of American Parboard, suffered a heart at tack as he was entering the gate for the Enka-Owen foot ball game and has been in room 416, St. Joseph’s Hos pital since. I just talked to a lady in Chet’s room at the hospital and she said he was feeling fine, which all of his many fiends will be glad to know-, and that he was as mean as could be—which they already knew. Just joking, of course, so don’t sue me. My informant said that on last Saturday Chet had three ball games going at the same time. He was watching the base ball game on TV and listening to two games on radio. But that is not surprising, his interest in sports, that is. The energetic Mr. Sobol cut his eye teeth on sports around Kankakee, 111,, center of the most rabid fans of football and basketball in the country— and the home of some of the finest high school teams and players. It isn’t far from Kankakee to Champaign, home of the II standing judges, editors, min isters and statesmen, the speaker also gave cold facts and figures to prove that the revenue argument is totally false, indefensible and even foolish. Alcoholism has been des cribed as the No. 4 health problem of today, being far more prevalent than tuber culosis, cancer, or polio. “If that be true,” the speaker in quired, “why is there not more determined and concerted ac tion to fight it? If it is a disease, we should not tolerate it, but stamp it out.” In answer to "what can be done?” she pointed out the Christian Life Commission as one agency taking the lead in an advance against the evil. Christians of all denomina tions should cooperate in stronger efforts againat it. lhey can also cooperate through the State and Fed eral Temperance Leagues such as W.C.T.U. and others in legislative adtion, local op tions, etc. . But most of all, each in dividual can make wholeheart ed commitment to total ab stinence, and lead families and friends to do likewise. In closing, Miss Biggers quoted in full the twelve rea sons for making such commit ment as found in a leaflet, "I make my commitment,” b.v C. Aubrey Hearn. This was sane, logical, powerful. Her quiet earnestness com pelled her listeners to resolve to be more alert, and to seek ways to really act rather than merely talk. linois Fighting Illini, to South Bend and the Fighting Irish, MORE MORE MORE MORE GAL TWO REFLECTIONS . to West Lafayette, Ind., and the Boiler Makers of Purdue, and many other top college teams. His many friends hope that Chet will soon be back in cir culation. I certainly do be cause I need his moral sup port in helping to absorb the shock of losing in both the major leagues and the Chi cago Bears. PANCAKES JAMBOREE Don’t forget the Pancake Jamboree which is being spon sored by the Kiwanis Club at the Owen High School Cafeter ia all day Saturday, Oct. 3. No matter what time you want to eat, the Kiwanians will be there to serve you, starting at 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. for breakfast. Lunch will be from 11:30 till 2:00 p.m., and supper from 5:00 to 7:00. Proceeds will be used for youth activities and to buy books for the Owen High School Library. Come early, eat a lot, and help a good cause. See you there.
