"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." --- Matthew 6:33
Prayer list this week includes: Kristy Russell.
Birthdays this week include: Gauge Weaver (June 29), Betty Carol Lane (June 30), and Ailene Erwin (June 30).
The
heat's not letting up. Judge Spears has had us under a burn ban for a
couple of weeks now, and the humidity is extremely low, so fires are a
very real danger right now. Take no chances.
The New Edinburg All School Reunion will be July 7 starting at 10am in
the cafeteria of the West Saline Community Center (the same ol' place
it's been for years now). Former students, teachers and their families
are invited. This has always been a great event and here's hoping we'll break an attendance record this time.
Concerning
the WSCC, I was asked a few days ago by a local resident "why bother to
maintain the school building, when newer facilities are available?" I
told him I could write out the answer better than I could verbalize it
and he should watch this column for his answer. Here it is: Joann Hall,
Kay Childress, Lorraine Taylor, Linda Joyner, Joe Daniel, Sue Sanders,
Brice Clay, Jigs Attwood, Anita Knowles, Nolan Brown, Cindi Morris,
Odell Wolfe, Gene Franklin, James Rankin, Danny Allen, H. O. Splawn,
Bobby Hyatt, Danny Adams, Debbie Jones, Evelyn Norris, Jane LaBeuff, and
a cavalcade of others living and dead who, since 1904, got up every
morning and attempted to turn school kids into civilized human beings
instead of farm animals. We owe it to them. You're either on board, or
you're not. It's an Eagles thing; dig it.
If you have items of interest for this column, please get them to me by
Monday for inclusion in that week's column. Go Eagles.

Romans 8:38 – 39 "For I am persuaded, that neither
death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other
creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord."
Prayer list this week: Christy Russell, Clifton Posey, and the family of Michael Williams.
Birthdays this week include: Donna Thompson - June 17, Betty Brown - June 20, Patricia McClellan Love - June 22, and Katie Briant - June 23. Happy Anniversary to: Teresa and Gary Hubbard - June 18, and Brad and Rebecca Cowan - June 21.
I hope all fathers had a great Father's Day this week. Winding June down, already one half 2012 is gone.
The New Edinburg All School Reunion will be July 7 starting at 10am in the cafeteria of the West Saline Community Center (the same ol' place it's been for years now). Former students, teachers and their families are invited.
The D. L. Broughton family had a Father's Day supper celebrating all the fathers in that family last Sunday in the cafeteria.
Fresh, young, bright, energetic, bouncing kittens are still available at my house... for free. Take two, they're small.
I was reminded the other day of the persistent rumor concerning gold buried somewhere on the Marks' Mills battlefield or in the area. Folks, there is no gold up there and never was. The Federal wagon train jumped there was returning from supply troops in Camden; there was a small amount of Yankee greenbacks on one of the wagons involved, but I'm sorry to say no massive amounts of gold coins waiting to make someone rich. I remember Harvey St. John told my dad that as a youth he saw the hole open where the gold was buried, and the footprints around it matched his... which I guess was his way of hinting he had discovered it. Harvey was also known to tell a tall tale now and then too.

"8 Finally,
brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any
virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Phillipians 4:8 KJV
Prayer list this week includes: Bill and Carol Ault, Kristy Russell, Wayne Sanders, Clifton Posey, and the family of James Clifton Sanders.
Birthdays this week include: Julie Trucks - June 11th. Anniversary wishes to: Rachel and Henry Jones June 11th and Regine and Barry Huddleston - June 11th.
Several Macedonia teens attended Camp Beaverfork last week and had an excellent time.
The Aults suffered a car wreck a couple of weeks ago in Fordyce but are doing okay. Cliff Posey also suffered an accident in Fordyce resulting in an injured shoulder. Moral (I guess): don't drive in Fordyce.
Monday night we received around a half-inch of much needed rain, with about a quarter inch received one day last week. We need much more.
The New Edinburg All School Reunion is scheduled for July 7th starting at 10am in the cafeteria of the West Saline Community Center. Anyone who attended New Edinburg Schools, their families and faculty are invited to attend. There will be potluck. Contact Mrs. Frankie Hall for more details.
Mary Frey's store has a new roof.
If you absolutely need a kitten, I'm your man.
Items for this column should be gotten to me by Monday night for inclusion in that week's column. Thanks to all who share things of interest; this column is especially popular with Eagles who live outside the state. Go Eagles.
