PUBLIC NOTICE DIVISION IRELAND, deceased, are notified to exhibit them to Katie M. Ireland as Administratrix of the decedent’s estate an or before April 7, 1977, at Bayboro, North Carolina, or be barred from their recovery. Debtors of the decedent are asked to make immediate payment to the above named administratrix Katie M. Ireland, Administratrix of the Estate of C. Roscoe Ireland P O Box 265 Bayboro, N.C. 28515 Bernard B. HoUoweU, Attorney Box 218, Bayboro, NC. 28S15 Sept. 30; Oct. 7,14 and 21,1976 Human Relations Committee’s Time Has Come What Is the Human Relations Committee? It is far more than a forum to air grievances, gripes and racial bellyaches. It does that. But it - does more. The Pamlico County Human Relations Committee is an ad visory committee to guide its Executive Director to form strong public relations with the social, civic and religious organizations within the county. The Executive will be available to the commissioners to serve in sensitive areas of public relations with new businesses coming into the county. The HRC will direct its Executive Director to write the detailed programs for federal funds already appropriated to communities that submit proper applications when authorized by the commissioners. These programs will bring millions of dollars into the county from the federal treasury. The HRC is concerned with human needs in the community. It is not a reflection of the old welfare department. It in vestigates needs presented to it. It makes recommendations for solutions to the County Com missioners and to the parties involved. The HRC is a buffer for racial differences that arise from time to time in schools, employment and in county government. Since all discrimination and unfairness is not racial, those laboring within county govern ment will be assured that the age-old cancer of nepotism will not be allowed to shrivel them economically. These citizens will have a forum and an ad vocate to present their positions openly before the com missioners. The HRC presents federal and state governments a county agency head who will respond as the Equal Employment Op portunity Officer. He will have ready answers while assisting in affirmative action planning. The HRC is composed of local .residents only. It is interested only in placing the best qualified person on public payrolls. It opposes unfair treatment of one qualified person to satisfy demands for “quotas” based upon skin color. The HRC is a county agency. It is a place for workers in fields or factories to vent their discontent if they feel they have been ' mistreated. They have the assurance they will b be heard by an agency thoughtfully created by the commissioners for that purpose. Otherwise time would not permit the com missioners to hear minor cases. Those in the county who en dure unfairness or abuse will receive a sympathetic hearing, and a fair presentation of their situation to the commissioners if the committee can’t reconcile the matter. The commissioners have made all of us feel a bit more secure; a bit more comfortable by creating the Pamlico County Human Relations Committee. It benefits citizens. Poor citizens; slighted citizens. The HRC is an avenue of service for all citizens. —By Perry McCotter, Jr. In And Around Oriental By MRS. G.P. MIDYETTE Vacationed In D.C.

It was a very worshipful service. There was worship through praise and through com mitment; through proclamation, consecration and the observance of the Lord’s Supper. The hand of Christian fellowship was extended to the new church members. No Excuse Sunday (From the Church Bulletin) To make it possible for everyone to attend church next Sunday, we are going to have a special “No Excuse Sunday .” Cots will be placed in the foyer for those who say, “Sunday is my only day to to sleep in.” Murine will be available for those with tired eyes from watching TV too late on Saturday night. We will have steel helmets for those who say, “The roof would cave in if I ever come to chur ch*” Blankets will be furnished for those who think the church is too cold, and fans for those who say it is too hot. We will have hearing aids for those who say the pastor speaks too softly, and cotton for those who say he preaches too loudly. Score cards will be available for those who wish to list the hypocrites present. Some relatives will be in at tendance for those who like to go visiting on Sundays. There will be TV dinners for those who can’t go to church and cook dinner, also. One section will be devoted to trees and grass for those who like to seek God in nature. Finally, the sanctuary will be decorated with both Christmas poinsettias and Easter lilies for those who have never seen church without them. —Copied At Historical Association Meet Mrs. Marion Hardy and Mrs. Irma Midyette attended the meeting of the Historical Society in Bayboro Thursday night.

The rate filing, requested earlier this year by the Com mission, proposes optional rates that are higher during times of high electric use, and lower when the demand for electricity is less. The new rates would be available to customers only if the Utilities Commission, after review and hearing, orders them to be implemented, according to Samuel Behrends, Jr., CP&L’s vice president for rates and regulation. Behrends emphasized that in filing the rates CP&L is in no way representing that the rates filed will result in any ultimate savings to the company or its customers. “Because there is very limited experience with time-of-day rates anywhere in the country, it is most difficult to assess the economic impact rates might have,” he said. “The rates we have filed are designed to yield the same return for the company as present rates.” Behrends noted that CP&L is involved in several experiments to determine the feasibility of peak load pricing. paintings.
