st Louis, Mo, June 80 Especially
An appeal for more than patriot
ism'-the upbuilding righteous
ness which truly exalts a nation
was issued today by DR. Eugene r
Bertermann,. Radio Director of the
international Lutheran Hour. in
the first Of his addresses as sum-
mer guest speaker on Bringing
Christ to the Nations. Speaking
over the Mutual Broadcasting Sy-
stem and affiliated stations, DIR.
Bertermann asserted: 1--WE can
never sufficiently thank our hea-
venly Father that the United Sta
ties of America was founded not
as a skeptical, unbelieving, ire
ligious nation. but as a Christian
commonwealth. The first coloni-
SITS who settled on the Atlantic
seaboard came to North America
in search, not of gold but Of God.
and the right to worship Him ac-
cording to the dictates of their
conscience. The Declaration of In
dependence, whose one hundred
and seventietk anniversary we
observe this week, declares that
the thirteen colonies wanted to as
sumo the separate and equal sta
ton to which the laws of Nature
and of Natures God entitle them.
1t asserts that all men are endow-
ed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights, such as life,
liberty and the pursuit of happin-
ess. In its conclusion these early
representatives of the United
States of America appeal to the
Supreme Judge of the World for
the rectitude of our intentions and
with a firm reliance on the pro
lection of divine Providence-mu-
tually pledge to each other our
lives, our fortune, and our sacred
honori
DR.. Bertermann continued: A
Christian serves under two flags.
Both the spiritual and the tenn
poral realms cooperate in beautl-
full harmony, serve and support
each other, so long as misguided
men do not force them into oppo-
sition to one another. We cheerful
ly salute Old Glory, and in doing
honor Him whose wise providence
ordained civil government. Yet on
ships at sea in the hour of public
worship. the Christian flag is run
up above the Stars and Stripes, in
recognition of the fact that there
is a Commander above the COM
mander-in-chief; a King Of kings
whose reign is eternal and whose
message of salvation by grace
through faith in Jesus addresses
it's appeal and challenge not only
to the United States, but to all
the world. George Washington
served under two flags when he
prayed for his country as fervent-
ly as he fought for it bravely, and
when he wrote to General La
fayette: st am not ashamed to
call myself a Christian, and I try
earnestly to be one"

Replanting And Rebuilding
Going On In Rich
Bottom Lands

CURRIE, March IL - During
recent tour through lower Bladen
and Pender counties by your Cur
rie correspondent the following
notes were made:
The leading question OF the DAY
was do you think we people IN
between the rivers will have an as
surance of protection against an
other crop loss by having the dyke
replaced in the Kelly section? I
only wish I could give an encour-
aging answer; but-we must hope
for the best, and perhaps the best
for the best anae
will be for us, and we farmers can
90 ahead and plant our fertile
swamp fields for another crop.
Many tours by airplanes and snap
shots have been made over the Kel-
lily section and they surely speak for
themselves.
Baptist Church
I was much hurt when recently
attending services at Centerville
Baptist church in Kelly. The flood
waters hit the once lovely church
land grounds quite heavily. The
floor is completely ruined and so
are the walls up to the windows,
all Of which will have to be rebuilt
and the entire church inside and
out repainted. New pews have been
ordered and will be Installed within
the next few months as they are
received The members Of church
have raised large portion OF the
money and many nice donations
have been made by former mem
bers and others. The shrubbery
I,around the church is almost totally
ruined-just a ragged sprout here
and there.
New Houses
Many new houses are going up
in the Kelly section regardless o1
Cape Fear floods. These new houses
are needed for families who are
trying to start over again home
for their loved ones after they have
been discharged from the Army
Some are renting small buildings
and some are living in homes o1
relatives.

SIGNS UP AGAIN
Fair Bluff Veteran Plans
/: To Make Air Corps Life
Work; Leaves Soon

FAIR BLUFF, March 12.-Joseph
IB. Townsend Tuesday became
Master Sergeant in the U. s.. Army
Air force.
Probably the most unbelievable
thing about the above statement is
that M. Sgt. Townsend, recently
discharged after overseas duty.
is going back in the Air Force with
plans to make it life work, after
having attained the rank of Cap.
tain prior to being discharged.
The handsome 22-year-old Fair
Bluff native said that he had mar.
ried since he returned from the
war February 20, and that he plans
to take. his wife, the. former Miss
Maxine Afford, Elizabethtown, as
soon as he is established at his
overseas station.
Thirty-Year Man
Asked how long he planned to
stay in the Air Force, Townsend
said, "I'm a 30-year man."
M. Sergeant Townsend, was sign
ed ''sealed and made ready for
delivery yesterday at the Will
mington Army Recruiting station,
Lieut., N. G. Cottle, officer in
charge said.
Young Townsend is the son OF
Mrs. Belle Townsend, and the late

chant. He has three brothers, none
Of whom are members OF the arm
ed forces, and eight sisters.
~ Wake Student
He is a former student Of Wake
Forest college, having majored IN
European theatre. Foggia, Italy
before entering the armed forces.
AS Captain Townsend, he spent
eight months overseas, in the
European theatre. Foggia Italy
was his base, with the U. S.lSecono
Bombardment group. =
Ironically, the former Bat plio'
was injured in his left leg while
on his first mission over Northern
italy. He never made another mis-.
sion. He said that he had dropped
his bomb load and was heading
home. when his plane became the
target OF enemy anti-aircraft fire.
