Israel would be blessed IF the na
tion accepted its responsibilities
and gave him obedience. 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!

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
