Deu teronomy clearly teaches that be fore obedience can be expected, appreciation of God’s great acts must be known. Out of grati tude for God comes love. From love comes a desire to be obedi ent. The Israelites were to teach their children the faith. Thus they helped their children choose the way of life that would mean either a “blessing” or a “curse.” This is equally applicable to our family life today. Our choices determine our characters, and our characters determine our destin ies. If w.e realize it is our spiritual immaturity, our imper fect understanding of God’s,will that makes it necessary to have laws to instruct us, we have gone a long way toward understanding the necessity of accepting God’s j laws, laid down for our guidance and help. As Christians, it is our duty to pass our knowledge on to our children in our family life. The home provides the most for mative influence in the life of our children, particularly in the early years. As they become older, this influence is shared by the school and the church. It is therefore important that both these institutions give priority to nurturing a spirit of reverence, of love, and of respect for and obed ience to law. The privilege of living as hu man beings means that we are continually confronted with the necessity of making choices. Deu teronomy 11:26-28 suggests that all choices inevitably boil down to a single, choice—a choice be tween good and evil. The ulti mate result of choosing the good is blessedness and true happiness: the consequence of choosing evil is misery, inner turmoil, and deg radation. To jive as God’s peo ple is to live under the impact of a definite act of decision—a positive choice for God, a com mitment of ultimate loyalty to Jesus Christ. To live for or against God is a choice that comes to both men and nations. Let us then, be sure that we, both as in dividuals and as a nation, make the right choice. We are a mighty nation, with great influ ence in this world. Let us set a good example by living by God’s eternal laws.

VFW Hot Line Post 9280 By J. NASH Not. too much news this week as every one is getting ready for opening night at the ball park. As you may or may not know, the VFW has undertaken the opera tion of the concession stand at the ball park for the Edenton Colon ials baseball club. The VFW jgSf stance—one of the most important factors in Plymouth’s smashing win is the new “Fuel-Saver” Choke that you get at no extra cost on all Plymouth V-Bs. This ingenious device employs a triple-stage vacuum piston and a new thermostatic element to reduce the amount of fuel you use in warming up the engine. So it can save you even more on short-distance drives—the kihd most people*make. Among the many other savings Plymouth .gives you i# the $l4O you save on standard-equipment Torsion-Aire Ride. The “other two” charge up to that much extra for their best suspension systems. So if you are dollar-conscious, better hustle over and talk terms and trade with your Plymouth dealer. He wants your business, and he’ll go all out to get it! COMPLETE THE CIRCLE Os SAFETY . . .

A motion will soon be placed on the floor to plant a line of trees along the boundary of the VFW property to enhance the looks of the Post home. What’s going to happen to the driveway to the Post Home? If the drainage isn’t corrected to di vert the water drain off, the whole yard will soon wash away. It is becoming serious not only to the looks but to persons driv ing their vehicles across it. I keep expecting to break a spring or two. Could we have a volun teer jio help correct this situa tion? We need a tractor equip ped either with a drag-scraper or a dozer blade. A ditch digger will help, too. What’s happening to the Satur day night dances.
