Remember Our Shut-Ins On June sth
In 1942, Ernest Baker, a young
Canadian shut-in, with the help of a
few friends, founded the Shut-In’s Day
Association, International. The annual
observance of this day falls on the first
Sunday in June.
The idea for observance of this
day is not new. English and Canadian
soldiers on duty in India many years
ago, learned that one of the Indian re

Nature’s Scenes- Delicate rose petals drifting
downward to rest upon Mother Earth’s blanket of
green; rain kissing the rooftop, its steady tempo mak
ing rhythmic sounds, as though the raindrops are
whispering that they too, are a part of life; young
colts romping in green pastures; frogs of varied sizes
playing in ditches along the roadsides, with the
croaks of those that gave them life resounding in the
background; tender vegetable shoots unfolding from
within their seeds- all telling the story of life to those
who listen closely enough.

everything on his tray decided to go the other way. It

Baccalaureate services for
Chattooga High School’s
graduating class were held
Sunday night in the Chat
tooga High School Cafeto
rium, with Rev. Robert
Franklin, pastor of the
Summerville First Baptist,
Church, bringing the ser
mon.
The invocation was given
by.Rev. Fred Buchanan, pas
tor of the Menlo Baptist
Church. The welcome was
given by Steve Thomas, pres
ident of the senior class.
Cynthia Palmer rendered
a solo, “How Lovely Are Thy
Dwellings”. Music was fur
nished by Mrs. Duke Espy
and Steve Parker.
Rev. Robert Smith, pastor
of South Summerville Bap
tist Church read the scrip
ture, and Rev. A. A. Tanner,
retired Baptist minister,
gave the benediction.
Junior marshals were Rob
bie White, Carol Hall, Larry
Veatch and Jimmie Baker.
The sermon was based on
Ecclesiastes 12:1. “Remem
ber now thy Creator in the
days of thy youth, while the
evil days come not, nor the
years draw nigh, when thou
shalt say, I have no pleasure
in them.”
Using a quotation from
James Barrie, creator of
Peter Pan and The Little
Minister, “God gave us mem
ories so that we might have
roses in December,” the
young people were reminded
that God wanted them to
remember certain things.
They should REMEMBER
WHO THEY ARE. They were
reminded that they were
composite of their parents
and those kindreds on both
sides of the family line; they
bore characteristics of both
parents, the weak and strong
points alike. They were also
reminded that each was a
child of the Eternal.
It is God who has really
made us. Each was also to
REMEMBER HOW HE GOT
HERE. More than one per
son was responsible. Par
ents had encouraged and
sacrificed for the necessities
and the extras in life. Teach
ers had prepared themselves
to guide in their study. The
community had provided the
facilities and the faculty
necessary for a well-de
veloped educational pro
gram. God has endowed each
one with some ability to en
able him to reach the mile
post; “therefore we should
not complain because we
have not, but rather we
should utilize that which we
have.
“As we REMEMBER
WHERE WE CAME FROM,
we are conscious of the fact
that twelve years have made
a great deal of difference in
us. We have come a long way
and have grown tremen
dously, in many areas of life.
“In order properly to be
related to our world, we
should REMEMBER WHAT
WE BELIEVE about our
selves, others, and our re
lationship with others as
creatures of the Eternal God.
“In addition to “remem
bering”, we need also to
KNOW WHERE WE ARE
GOING. Each person needs
a goal to challenge, a goal
that is God-given. This will
involve services to others.”
He closed with a quotation
from Dr. Monroe Swilley,
president of the Georgia
Baptist Convention: “We are
not so worried that we shall
fail, but that we shall suc
ceed, in the things that do
not matter most.”
I Ambulance Service Charges I
B You have seen on TV, read in local and out-of-town newspapers all about B
H ambulance service in reference to the Medicare Program, and ambulance service B
■ under the wage and hour law, etc. The nearest city to us has proven that under B
B the wage and hour law it will cost 560.00 per day, <24 hours per day) per ambu- B
lance, (2 men to go on call, one left to answer phone, cost of the ambulance, in- B
B surance, taxes, gas, oil, and maintenance). B
Ambulance service is and has been supported by the unfortunate families S
B who have lost a loved one. In view of this, for the present time we are going to B
try to stay in the ambulance business by increasing a small amount for the am- B
K balance service, and charging for the excess time or waiting periods in a hospital B
B if the patient is to return or is admitted. B
B When and if the Federal Government says that we are under the wage and B
B hour law it is easy to spell out, "we are out"—At that time we will post the per B
B cent or the exact dollars off of the casket that the family of a deceased loved B
B one wishes to buy. B
& We will "toe” the mark a little closer in the future that ambulance service B

“In a day that places great
stress on religious, political,
and educational conformity,
Bob Jones University stands
firm for the individualism
which makes men and na
tions great. This individual
ism—so lacking in the mod
ern world, yet so outstand
ing at Boh Jones University
—is the theme of the 1966
“Vintage”.
Born in Lynchburg, Va., in
1910, Dr. Johnson lost his
father at the age of eight
and was sent to the Odd Fel
lows Home in Lynchburg,
where he remained for
eleven years. In order to get
a high school education, it
was necessary for him to
work every afternoon and at
night.
He was graduated from
high school with honors and
was elected to the National
