National Back To Church Sunday Cookout And Concert

 

The Northwood Advent Christian Church invites you to a free cookout and music night to celebrate National Back to Church Sunday on September 21. The church is located at 113 School St. (Rt. 107) in the Narrows. The cookout will start at 4:30pm with hamburgers, hotdogs  followed at 5:30 with a time of great music with talented musicians. The activities will all be outdoors weather permitting.

 

If you have not been to church for years or have never been we invite you to come and see that here is a place of community, caring and friendship, where faith and reality meet. Real people on the road of life sharing the “Bread Of Life”. We don’t have all the answers but we know the One who does.

 

The church has been a part of the Northwood community since the mid 1800’s. This is an invitation for you, our neighbors to come and check us out and see what God is doing. We are happy to invite you back to church. Join us Sept. 21 at 4:30pm and every Sunday at 10 am for worship service.

 


 

Letter to the Editor

Less of Which

 

In my last letter, I called out politicians in general, and my now-chosen opponent in particular, who call for “less government” without specifying what part they would shutter. I used the case of Typhoid Mary as a case where a government agency – the NYC Health Department – played a vital role.  And as the Center for Disease Control will do again this year as the flu season ramps up.

 

I have a similar case to make about my opponent’s embrace of “less regulation.”  Again, an historical case will make the point: the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City on March 25, 1911.  Quoting Wikipedia, “because the owners had locked the doors to the stairwells and exits,” 146 garments workers died, many who “jumped from the 8th, 9th and 10th floors to the street below…. The fire led to legislation requiring improved factory safety standards.”  That is to say, regulation.

 

Think of this every time you open a door with a broad push bar that opens outwards.  The crush of people fleeing will open the door.  Regulations require them.

 

And if you need a more recent example of our need for regulations to protect us from ourselves and others, recall The Station nightclub fire in Rhode Island in 2003 where 100 people died and another 230 were injured.

 

Yes, I agree that stickers on wood stoves that warn us that they are “HOT WHEN IN USE” are pretty silly.  But I prefer to live in a world with safe food, safe drinking water, certified plumbers and electricians, lawyers who have passed the bar, and licensed doctors and nurses.

 

So when a politician calls for “less regulation” without saying which ones to eliminate, I won’t vote for him, and NEITHER SHOULD YOU.
