Baptist Bible
Vacation Bible School classes
were held at the Winterville Bap
tist Church from Monday, July 9,
through Friday, July 13. The
school was terminated with a short
commencement program in which
every child took part and was
awarded a certificate. Immediate
ly following the program a most
generous picnic lunch was served
to all the children and many pa
rents.
The highlights of the school
were an increasing attendance day
by day, and an impressive service
in which the school children- cele
brated the 50th anniversary of the
Vacation Bible School. An art
poster helped the children to grasp
its largeness, Last year alone the
Baptists had 20,124 schools. If all
thé pupils had marched in a dou~
ble line it would have been 495
miles long, Had they marched
three miles per hour it would
have taken seven days for all of
them to enter the church. Follow
ing this service the pupils assem=
bled in the church yard around a
table beautifully decorated with a
birthday cake, marked 50th Anni
versary, and lighted candles. They
were served a refreshing drink
and were presented with favors,
Six Groups
There were six groups, Begin
ners, two Primary groups, two
Junior groups, and the Interme
diate group. Their themes of stu
dy and handwork were as fol
lows:
Beginners—This group consisted
of three, four and five year olds.
Their theme was “God’s love and
his care.” They learned a Bible
verse each day and heard a Bible
story each day, some of which
were “Samuel in the Temple,”
“Jacob’s Dream,” ‘The Little Glad
Rabbit,” and Fraidie-Cat.” For
their handwork they made rabbits,
temples, paper dolls, and wind
mills.
Primarys—The primary group
studied about God’s beautiful
world and what He has put in it,
the sun, moon, stars, trees, plants,
food and all the many other won
derful things He has put in the
world. In handicraft they made
world booklets and put things into
them about their subject.
Juniors — Their theme was
“Learning of God from His
World.” The memory verse was
“The heavens declare the glory of
God; and the firmament showeth
His handiwork.” They studied
about the wonderful world that
God has created and the many
ways to learn of God by observ
ing this world about us. They
made pretty and useful trays of
aluminum, and colorful pot hold
ers in their handicraft class. |
Intermediates—Their topic was
“Learning from the Great Teach
er.” This study consisted of three
parts; 1) Learning from Jesus’
preaching of the Sermon on the
Mount, 2) Learning from His
deeds, and 3) Learning from his
parables. They made notebooks
and studied state missions.
The school was a great success
due to the efforts of the officers,
teachers, and helpers, also to the
refreshment committee who
served delicious refreshments to
the group each day, and to the
transportation committee who
were responsible for getting the
pupils to and from school.

W. C. THOMPSON
“The first five minutes spent in
fighting a fire are the most im
portant.” You may have heard us
make this statement many times
before—and no doubt we’ll do it
again—often! It’s one fire safety
‘frule of thumb” that bears repeat=
ing.
If more alarms were turned in
the minute a blaze was discovered
and we were able to reach the
scene while the fire was still in
its infancy, there’d be a lot less
property destroyed in this country
each year. More important,
there’d also be a big slash in the
yearly casualty lists.
Remember the St. Anthony’s
Hospital holocaust in Effingham,
Illinois, that shocked the nation
back in ’49? Seventy-seven lives
were accounted for in this death
trap blaze, most of them helpless
patients, Investigations later
showed that there was apparently
no predetermined plan of proce
dure for calling in outside aid
such as the local fire departmenty
The supply of approved fire ex
tinguishers was dangerously lim
ited and no fire drills of any kind
had been held for year.
The fire gained tremendous
headway and the fire-fighting
forces had three strikes called on
them before they ever reached the
fire grounds!
If you discover a fire on your
premises, call the Department as
soon as is humanly possible. Don’t
feel “funny” about calling us out
to what you consider a “small”
fire. These small blazes have a
way of getting out of contrcl fast.
We’d much rather answer an
alarm and find the fire out, or al
most out, than to find it out of
control.
After you've cleared everyone
from the building and called the
Department, tackle the fire with
your own approved fire extin
guishers.

Some women flaunt their accents
like home-town banners Having
spent the first fen years of their
lives in Boston, they pahk their
cahs for the next seventy years—
whether they’re living in Texas
or Timbuctoo. Others cling, for all
of their adult lives in Yankee ter-~
ritory, to pre-adolescent drawls
and y’alls they picked up in the
cotton country.
The same holds true for dialects.
No matter how fond an individual
is or her Irish grandmother, there’s
no need for perpetuating a brogue
once new affairs have left behind
the wearing of the green.
There are several reasons for
these transplanted speech man
nerisms. Sometimes it’s sheer lazi
ness; it takes effort to achieve
a speech that doesn’t label you
by spction or ancestry.
In other cases, distinctive speech
is nursed as a conversation piece,

from an urge—conscious or un
conscious — to attract attention.
Unfortunately these women find,
in most cases, there’s usually less
notice paid to what they’re saying
than to how they’re saying it.
A third reason is loyalty to old
ties, and a refusal to lose individu~
ality by going whole-hog Roman
three days after arriving in Rome,
Instincts are right in this case.
There are few things more dis
turbing, for instance, than south
erners who, after a week in a
northern summer resort, have
broadened their A’s to the extent
they go around proclaiming their
birthplace as Ala-bah-ma.
A middle-of-the-road policy is
best. Adapt your speech to that
of those who surround you, re
membering to pick up the best they
have to offer, rather than the
worst. The ideal, of course, is to
evolve a consmopolitan speech
which marks you as a woman of
cultural, not geographical, dis
tinction.

ergy in one minute as mankind
