Flag Day
I Serious observers are
1 questioning the durability of the
.! American system. One of these is
! columnist Stewart Alsop who
' commented recently that, "A
'. eood many normally sensible
'" people are beginning to ask
themselves whether the
J American system might not
5 come apart one of these days,
1 rather like Oliver Wendell
Holmes' wonderful one-hoss
;J shay. The one-hoss shay, it will
;! be recalled, 'was built in such a
logical way, it ran a hundred
years to a day.' But it 'went to
pieces all at once - all at once,
! and nothing first, just as bubbles
J; do when they burst.' " Mr. Alsop
' concludes that the odds are high
that the American system will
j surmount present difficulties as
jit has other difficulties in the
gpast.
S These reflections of a leading
and highly competent viewer of
J the contemporary scene should
5 make everyone pause and search
jjfor little ways in which to exhibit
Va reaffirmation of faith in the U.
SS. An obvious opportunity will
j present itself on June 14 during
;Ithe nationwide observance of
J Flag Day. It was on June 14, 1777
I;that the United States' Flag was
l;adopted. For nearly 200 years, it
Jjhas been a symbol of freedom
and justice. On countless oc
casions, it has rallied the
patriotic and unified the nation in
jjthe vast crucible of human
existence where only the fittest
can survive. The right to fly the
American Flag before our homes
and places of businesses is a high
.-"honor at anytime and doubly so
i'jm the Anniversary of the birth of
t'the Flag.

SAM ERYIN
SAYS
WASHINGTON - Inasmuch as
the First Amendment and the
right cf dissent are being invoked
with frequency nowadays to
justify rioting by students on the
campuses of some of our in
stitutions of higher learning, it is
timely for us to consider this
Amendment and this right.
The First Amendment un
dertakes to make the minds and
spirits of men free. To this end, it
guarantees to every person in
our land freedom ot thought
freedom of speech, freedom of
the presi, and freedom of
religion. One may exercise these
freedoms either as an individual
or in association with others
having a common lawful pur
pose, Furthermore, the First
Amendment expressly
recognizes a collective freedom,
i.e., the right of the people
"peaceably to assemble and to
petition government for a
redress of grievances."
Moreover, the right of dissent,
which is the right to differ from
others in opinion, may be said to
be a part of the First Amend
ment. Under our Constitution,
men can be punished for what
they do or fail to do, but not for
what they think or believe.
Even so, it is abundantly clear
that the Amendment requires
that all of these freedoms be
exercised in a peaceful and law
abiding manner This
requirement is explicit in the
declaration that those who wish
to petition government for a
redress of grievances must
assemble peaceably, and is
implicit in the nature of the
freedoms themselves. They are
designed to enable people to
inform and persuade others, not
to coerce them. Also, the
Amendment does not authorize
any acts whatever except non
violent acts tantamount to the
freedoms it secures such as
peaceful demonstrations and
peaceful picketing, which merely'
proclaim the views of the par
ticipants and do not infringe on
the rights of others.
Veteran's
Administration
The Veterans Administration
again reminded veterans
training under the GI Bill to
return their certification of at
tendance cards.
For example, veterans at
tending colleges must return
these cards during the last full
month of every enrollment
period. Those training below
college level must return them
every month.
The cards are needed for two
reasons, W. R. Phillips, Manager
of the , Winston-Salem VA
Regional Office, pointed out. One
is that VA computers are
programmed to prepare these
educational allowance checks
only after the cards have been
received.
The other is that if the at
tendance card of the veteran
attending college is not returned
at the end of the semester, he
cannot be automatically enrolled
under the GI Bill for subsequent
sessions that he may plan to
attend.
Since final checks do not arrive
until most college students have
left the campus, Phillips
reminded veterans to be sure to
make arrangements to have
their checks forwarded by the
post office.
Veterans must also report
promptly to the VA any changes
in training programs which
would affect the amount of their
checks. College veterans would
do this by letter, and below
college level trainees on their
monthly punched card, (Form
2lE-6553a).
Veterans or dependents in
terested in GI Bill training or
more Information about
veterans' programs were urged
to contact the nearest VA Office.

These things being true, the
First Amendment freedoms do
not legalize, or exempt from
punishment, the acts of those
who commit crimes or incite
others to commit crimes. Indeed,
they do not deny government the
power to curtail a person's right
to sneak if his manner of
speaking and the surrounding
circumstances create a clear
and present danger that his
words will incite others to
violence and thus endanger the
public safety.
During recent months groups
of students, acting in concert,
have used physical force and
threats of physical force to
disrupt the education process on
the campuses of some of our
public and private institutions of
higher learning. Thus, students
by violent means have detained
administrative officers of these
institutions in their offices, have
denied teachers and fellow
students access to buildings set
apart for instructional purposes,
and on occasion have even
assaulted administrative of
ficers, teachers, and fellow
students, who refused to
cooperate with them.
Moreover, they have often
denied innocent citizens their
legal rights to travel in safety on
public highways by blocking such
highways, or by hurling stones
into their automobiles.
Those who seek to justify such
outrageous conduct ignore the
simple truth that criminal
coercion has no place on the
campus ot any university or
college anywhere in our land.
liter all, the ultimate duty of a
free society is to enforce law and
maintain order, and in the final
analysis our universities and
colleges must see that this is
done or else the intellectual and
spiritual light necessary to
preserve a free society will
perish.

DEAR FRIENDS,
Man is a being who buries his dead with
ceremony. This he does in all the nations and
cultures of the world, whether civilized or un
civilized We consider our American funeral
rituals to be among the most sensible. Signifi

to memorialize and mourn the beloved dead
as exists among people everywhere.

The National Park Service is preparing an
exhibit of the Lifesaving Service and Coast
Guard and their roles in Outer Banks history.
It will be located at the Little Kinnakeet Coast
Guard Station near Buxton.
One of the main features of the exhibit
will be the "Lady of the Outer Banks". This
is the power surfboat famed in the annals of
Coast Guard history for her rescue of the crew
of the Mirlo, a British tanker torpedoed off
Rodanthe in 1918.
She's been completely refurbished and
fitted out and, today, she's really a fine lady
to see . . .

MAKING WORSHIP MEANINGFUL
Intemati(Hial Sunday School Lesson for June 14, 1970
MEMORY SELECTION: "Let all things be done decently
and in order". -(Corinthians 14:40)
LESSON TEXT: I Corinthians 11 ; 14.
No writer in the Bible has been more extensively quoted
than Paul. A man of intense conviction, of vision, and gifted
with the power of soaring rhetoric, he was, indeed, an able
advocate on behalf of Jesus Christ and the glory of God.
There is, therefore, much to be learned from Paul's in
terpretation of the importance of public worship within the
fellowship of the Church. For, ostensibly, in the attendance of
a service of worship under a roof that is truly and sincerely
dedicated to God, a sense of fellowship, of well-being, of
gratitude, of comfort, of spiritual sustenance, of sharing, and
of love and responsibility should be present and tangible to
whomever enters those portals - whether it be member or -visitor.
.
So very much depends on one's personal attitude, one's
personal beliefs! Like everything else in life, one gets out of
it, in exact measure, what one is willing to put into it !
- The truly motivated Christian sees worship not' as l
retreat from the realities of his life, but as the only intelligent
response to reality that he can give; the reality of God's1
sacrificial love; the reality of Christ's concern, humility, and
obedience. . ' ' '
Worship - what are the connotations of that word?
Adoration? Yes! Humility? Yesf Gratitude? Yes! true
worship personifies all that Is uplifting in the human spirit.
But all these things must be present in our consciousness, or
they become unmeant ul and ineffectual despite our physical)
appearance in public in the church of our choice. I
If we do not enter into a service with the proper and
receptive attitude,' we do not leave spiritually enriched; nor,
aurely.canGodberiearteiiedbycatteiKiancel For He sees;
all tilings', and into every heart! ' ' I
God is, indeed, the ultimate explanation of why men,
worship - for worship la, essentially, a raponce to God's;
. presence. " . ,", , .-
: In' most churches of our time the Sacrament of Holy
Communion Is observed. As the wafer (His Body) is shared
and as the wine (IBs blood) Is offered and received, the
solemnity of the occasion will not escape the receptive spirit.)
Received within the feowship of the church, tt is shared
infellowthip. The church is stronger for the banding together
of its members, and therefore more effective m doing God's
work. I
" Worship should be a drawing together of kindred spirits J
; an Inner renewal, an affirmation, and a concerted answer to
" the greatest challenge mankind has ever known.' How is
YOUR church uuwering God's call? .
