RALEIGH - The "Nickels for Know-How" program has pumped more than $2,853,000 into agricultural teaching, research and extension programs at North Carolina State University since 1951, Rudolph Pate, director of Foundations and Development, announced Saturday. Pate released figures showing that the Statewide program under which buyers of feed and fertilizer . assess themselves, yielded $31,356 during the last quarter of 1969 alone. For the entire year of 1969, the total was $175,000. The proceeds are used to provide "seed" money and supplemental funds for educational missions at North Carolina State University. The funds are collected by the State Department of Agriculture, headed by Commissioner James A. Graham. Last November the voters of the state approved a six-year continuation of the program by an eight to one margin. The program was initiated in 1952 and has been approved by North Carolina State University; J. C. Powell, president of the North Carolina Agricultural Foundation; Dean H.

Ashe Street, Greensboro, N. C. 27401. For Your Information Dear friends, An occasional comment reveals that many people believe a funeral service follows a defi nite routine. It may surprise you to know, however, that no two funerals are alike. Each service brings its own requirement!. Tne desires of the family are given first consideration always. In addl itlon, the clergyman's requests must be con sidered. Then tne many details must be arrang ed around those requests. - Each service, therefore, is distinct and fol lows a program of its own.

VICTORY OVER SIN AND DEATH International Sunday School Lesson for March 29, 1970 MEMORY SELECTION: "Now Is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept." LESSON TEXT: Matthew 28 As we study this Lesson today, we are focibly struck by the fact that in the resurrection of Christ, God overcame both sin and death. Within the Holy Trinity, truth and right became inviolate.--.:--" The Resurrection of Christ, after death, holds out to the world a reassurance that out of evil comes great good. It rises triumphantly from the ashes of man's erratic and sometimes bewildering cruelty to his fellow men. And as the story is recounted year after year during the Easter period, it loses none of its impact. It is the dawn of a sense of renewal within the breasts of Christians everywhere. Jesus had long been preparing His twelve closest com panions for His death; He had devoted much time to in structing them in regard to their continuance of His ministry, the conversion of sinners. The reappearance of Christ to those closest to Him, during the interim between His death and His ascension was a continuing facet of this preparation, Christ invariably urged those to whom He appeared, to "be not afraid". Fear was not one of His goals;. . . not tne kind of fear that is the common connotation of the word. Awe, however, He did not frown upon. For when one is awed, one is impressed. And how much more impressive can anything be that this Man loved us so much He laid down His life for us? Had He not done so, had the cruel nails of the cross ended, once and for all the life of One dedicated to the service of mankind, then we would, indeed, be in a sorry state . . . hopeless and lost! But such was not the case. Christ was crucified, yet He lived! And so the worst of sinners is saved! During the forty days that Jesus remained on earth, before His ascension, He appeared to many of His beloved followers. This was a period of transition . . . and here we must make note of the fact that whereas, during His lifetime on earth, He worked among His little band of close com panions; after His crucifixion He - as He had promised -worked within them. If the Easter season means anything to us at all, it must make its point with us, right here. Our belief to the risen Christ means not only serving Him, but proclaiming Him to others. He most live within us, accompanying us on our often .perplexing Journey through a world that is both complex and confusing. He should ever be present in our hearts, our minds, our deeds. ; As with all the other truly great gifts of God, there is a sense of obligation which accompanies them. The Christian doctrines must be aggressively proclaimed by a band of people united in their innermost beliefs - those of us who make up the Christian World. We cannot affort to be "wishy washy" about a subject of such depth and meaning! God the Father deplored the state of sin into which mankind had fallen. He did something about it - He gave Christ to the world, to absolve the sins of that world in His '"death! " -rVX:'.-' - :- , Christ, the Saviour, cared about mankind, and He did something about that, too. He gave HU life, that we should be absolved from sin, and experience everlasting life. So what is , oar commitment? i Surely It is unmistakable! . .
