Mecklenburg
CEOS Club
The July meeting of the
Mecklenburg CEOS Club was
held at the home of Nancy
Sarra. The hostess presented a
meditation reading a poem
"The Gift" and a Christmas
prayer.
Jean Scott discussed "Char-
actor Counts" which is one of
the goals of the Family Com-
mittee. She stated that we
must be accountable and must
strengthen the moral values of
the next generation. We need to
incorporate the Six Pillars of
Character-Trustworthiness,
Respect, Responsibility, Fair-
ness, Caring and Citizenship in
all that we do. Some of the
things we need to incorporate
are honesty, courage, loyalty,
tolerance, consideration, self-
control, open-mindedness,
kindness, compassion, forgive-
hess and cooperation.
"Christmas in July" was
presented by the hostess. She
began her discussion by saying
that as we age Christmas tradi-
tions change and the older fam-
ily members should be open to
the ideas of the younger family
members. Members shared
family Christmas traditions.
Making sugar cookies and
decorating them has become a
tradition of one family. There is
a friendly competition within
the family members. One mere:
her stated that opening gifts on
Christmas Eve and getting to-
gether on Christmas Day is
their family tradition. Another
member shared that when her
family lived in Colorado a tra-
dition of their church was to
take the Christ Child to a home
and then the next night the
group would tam the child to
another home.
'I~wo members stated that
attending ~ Eve ser-
vice is a tradition. One stated
that ~ are opened according
to age. It was suggested that a
Nativity scene be used that
children can play with as the
Bible story is read. Other ideas
for traditions were making
homemade giRs; making an or-
nament of a picture of each
child to hang on the tree; spon-
soring a needy family; letting
children help with cookies,
picking out a live tree together,
opentag home to those who are
unable to get to their homes

Country &
Flag Topic
For CEOS
The Jefferson/Rippon CEOS
Club met at the Extension Of-
fice July 7. The subject of the
meeting was "Our Country-
Our Flag."
For devotions, Hazel Spears
used topics related to the flag:
"The Flag is Many Things," and
"Les We Forget."
Joann Viands told the cor-
rect ways to display the flag
and how to dispose of it when it
is faded and torn. She read
some of its history, beginning
with George Washington's first
battle flag, carrying the Union
Jack in its upper left hand cor-
ner and the 13 red and white
stripes until our present one
with the 50 stars on a blue field
representing the 50 states and
the 13 stripes representing the
13 colonies.
Mrs. Viands had a flag that
had flown over our nation's
capital in April 1987. It was
presented to her by Mrs.
Isabelle Albright of the
Women's A~ary of the VFW
in honor of her brother, who
gave his life for our country in
the Korean Conflict.
Using this flag, Jennifer
Snyder, a former Girl Scout,
folded it while the meaning of
each of the 12 folds represented
was being read.
A video, "Our Country," was
viewed with many beautiful
scenes from our land shown.
When viewing the flag, we
think of liberty, freedom and
pride. The American flag has
accompanied mankind on its
greatest achievements. It flies
at both poles, on the moon, and
sits on top of Mount Everest.
The next meeting for the
club will be a work detail on
August 4. Baby blankets are to
be made to be given to new-
borns at Jefferson Memorial
Hospital.
New members are welcome
and can contact any club mem-
ber or the extension office at
Bardane. Members are encour-
aged to bake cookies for the fair
bake sale which is scheduled
for the evenings of August 18
and 19.
