They call Him "The Great Example." When prob lems afise they ask themselves: "What would Jesus do?" They seek salvation by "walking in His steps." i ' While our Lord's moral and spiritual virtues are indeed worthy of emulation, there were many details -in His conduct which we should not imitate. For example, none of us would be in a position to pronounce upon the religious hypocrites of our day, the bitter woes which our Lord pronounced upon the Pharisees of His da y'-simply because we all have so much of the Pharisee in us. J Certainly we cannot be saved by "following Christ" or striving to live as He did. His perfect holiness would only emphasize? our unrighteousness and condemn us. He came to save us, not by His life, but bv His death. "Christ died for our sins" (I Cor. 15:3) and sinners are "recon ciled to God by the death of His Sob" (Rom. 5:10). But God has given us a pattern! for salvation. It is none other than the Apostle Paul, the chief of sinners saved by grace. Hea what he says by divine inspira tion. "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief" (I Tim. 1:15). Paul, as Saul of Tarsus, remember, had led his nation and the world in rebellion against God and His Christ. He was "exceedingly! mad" against the disciples ofl Christ and breathed threaten ing and slaughter" against them. Why, then, did God save him? He flows on to tell us in the next verse: 'AS "But for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long- suffering, FOR A PATTERN to them that he should hereafter be lieve on Him to life everlasting" (Ver. 16). The moral: Take your stand with Paul. Admit you are a sinner and his Savior will save you too.

NEW YORK, NY-Xernona Concludes Peterson, if Xemona Clayton could well be called Clayton could have one wish, the first lady of "color" TV. she would be a philanthropist. Back in 1967, Ms. Clayton However, stuck with reality, began hosting her own weekly TV talk show on WAGA in Atlanta-a first for the country, and the beginning of a prestigious career in media that has spanned more than half a decade. When superactive Xernona isn't busy producing and starring on her own television show, or organizing fund-raising events for the MLK, Jr. Birthplace Memorial Restoration Committee or for sickle cell anemia research, she might be found at a meeting of the Television and Motion Picture Commission for the State of Georgia, or on I ocation for her role in "The House on Skull Mountain", a Black horror film being shot in Georgia. As an active member of the T.M.P. Commission, it was recently one of Xernona's duties to show young, Black producer, Joe Hartsfield, various sites in the state suitable for location shooting. Hartsfield was so impressed with her that he proposed her taking a part in his film. "I wasn't at all interested in acting at first," recalls: Xernona, "but I became interested because I was so committed to his project. I like to see people who have energy and the emotional vitality to identify a goal and see it through to the end. The late Ralph McGUl, a famous journalist and publisher of the Atlanta Constitution, once called Xemona a natural communicator. And, it was McGUl who was in many ways responsible for her beginning in television. Says Xernona, "I sincerely believe that white people don't hate us because we are Black. They just haven't had the privilege of knowing us. They need to be educated." During the early years Xernona doubted her talents at show business, but her beaming charm, optimism and intelligence made her show an instant hit. In the past six years, she had a full specturm of guests on her show, from governors to welfare mothers. And, on almost all her shows she features whites as well as Blacks, because that's her philosophy. "Racism is what we've been fighting to get rid of!" Editor, Msurcie Peterson, profiles Atlanta's first lady of television in the December i ssue of Essence, and finds hei life devoted to helping others. she can't afford to give money, therefore she gives of herself.. .and she has much to give. of Energy the energy rewuKe which it holds, NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce strongly urges its individual members, its member firms, industries and institutions to: (1) strictly honor the requests of Congress and the Administration in regards to the energy crisis, (2) refrain from the use of unnecessary exterior and interior lighting except that required for safety and security, (3) discontinue the unnecessary use of motorized or other substanti a energy-consuming signs or displays, (4) develop othet policy within their own organizations to limit energy consumption, and (5) encourage employees to be "energy conscious" at home as well as on the job.
