Send News for the November Issue to Personnel Office Before November 2. Devotional Thoughts Bishop Jeremy Taylor in his book “Holy Living” made this comment: “Man hath but a short time here on earth, yet on that time, eternity depends”. And how true it is! Think for a minute on this idea. Where did you come from? Of course, you came from God. He made you through your parents. You had no choice in the matter of being born or choosing your parents. You came into the world because God put you here and He put you here for a pur pose. Where are you going? You are going into eternity. Life goes on beyond the grave forever and ever. Men from the very earliest times have believed this; that eter nal living can be in the presence of God or Heaven. That is to say, a meaningful life with God, liv ing with your best self forever, or that eternal living can be in the absence of God or Hell. That is to say, a meaningful life without God, living with your worst self and your worst habits, getting a lit tle worse eternally. ^Tat decides where you spend eternity? The use you make of your life here, of course. Not in being good, for salvation comes not from goodness but from the love of God’s forgiveness of our sins poured out on the Cross, but the use we make in growing close to God, The use we make in asking God’s forgiveness and God’s love. The use we make of God’s Grace made available through His Church. It is upon this use of our lives that our eternity depends, ‘‘Man hath but a short time here on earth, yet on that short time, eternity depends.” The Reverend Gray Temple, Rector The Church of The Good Shepherd Rocky Mount, North Carolina The Caromount News 'births Mr. and Mrs. Bennie Spain (Weaveshed) of Tarboro, an nounce the birth of a daughter, Brenda Faye Spain, born Septem ber 5, 1951.

Wage I*oli(;y The Shelton Looms has estab lished a definite policy providing for the payment of the highest wages in its industry in the area in which it operates. This has been its policy since its start over ninety years ago and it will con tinue to be. In America, many positions as company president have been fil led through “Boy Wanted” ad vertisements. The man with a closed mind does well to keep his mouth closed too. Of all the evils that infest a state, a tyrant is the greates; his sole will commands he laws, and lords it over them.—Euripides. J*ay-I>ay Friday is the usual pay-day, al though another day may be de signated by the plant manager be cause of unusual circumstances. When this is done, a notice will be posted in due time. Your pay will be delivered to your depart ment after noon. Your foreman will give you the details. You must present your time card in order to receive your pay. If you are absent and want someone else to collect your pay, be sure to send a written request signed by you. You will receive your pay on the Friday of the week following the one in which the work was com pleted. This gives the Payroll De partment the necessary time to figure your earnings. The Company is required to make a deduction for Social Se curity Old Age Benefits and to make a regular deduction accord ing to your marital and dependen- dency status, for the U. S. Trea sury Department for income tax. You may request the Payroll De partment to make bond deductions and deductions for other worthy causes.
