SO ■ SECOND SERMONS -*r- FRED DODGE ' Text: **How long halt y' be tween two opinions?” —I Kings 18:21. It is said that a young man < received the following i.ote from his girl-friend: “Dear John: 1 r- :st explain that I was only joking when 1 wrote that 1 didn t mean what I said about : onsidering my decision not to change my mind. I really mean this.” The chief reason for our con tinual confusion is indecision. We cannot make up our minds and go into action. We start. We stop. We tire ourselves mill ing around in a circle of con fusion. Ultimately we do noth ing. Then we numb our con science by eating too much, KNOW YOIIR SOCIAL SEOIHTY John T. Grooms, representative of the Social Security Administration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the Citizens Bank Buildng. Grooms. Field Represen tative ' from the Norfolk Social Security Office, announced that many people in Chowan and Perquimans Counties have been inquiring about the disability provisions of the Social Security Act. jSome people who have what js obviously a temporary disability, such as a broken arm, which will keep them out of work only a few months, have also inquired about disability benefits under Social Security. In order to be considered dis-1 .itfclt'd under the Social Security | lAct, the disability must be ex pected to continue indefinitely or result in death. Whether your disability resulted from an in jury or an illness, it must be a condition which will show up in medical examinations and tests. If your condition is only tempor ary and expected to improve with time and further medical treatment, so that you will be able to return to work, you can not qualify under the Social Se curity disability provisions. If, because of special knowl edge or skills, you are able to do substantial gainful work de spite your condition, or if you tjgn’t do your regular work but qan do other substantial gainful £>rk, you cannot qualify under ese disability provisions. To be eligible for disability insurance benefits or to have your social security record fro-j ien, your disability must havej Vested for 6 months or more and ifnist have begun at least 6 months before you reached age 65. The rules in the social security law for deciding whether a per son is disabled are different from the rules in some other Gov ernment and private disability programs. This means it is pos sible that some people receiving disability payments for “total disability” from another Govern ment agency or from a private company, may not be found eli gible under the Social Security Lgw. There is a special provision in the law for people who are blind but are able to work any how. These people may havej their social security record fro zen. but in order to receive dis ability benefits between the ages of 50 and 65 they must show w - V JBf < nkisn w B Si 11 \(i B Ife M(!\itok M Good Reading for the Whole Family •Hews . •Facts ; ♦Family Features Mil OvMien Science Monitor «M Hooey a«Mn IS.

A leader doesn’t shrink from deciding even when it means taking a chance. John H. Patterson defined an execu tive as “a man who decides; sometimes he decides right, but always he decides.” When you face a decision, weigh the facts and make it. Stand by it until proven wrong by new information and facts. If you are clearly wrong, don’t be proud. Reverse yourself promptly. Remember, “Os all mistakes, only one is disgrace ful—inaction”.

New Equipment To Be Introduced For Grading Os Peanuts The automatic peanut screen shaker and mechanical kernel splitter will be used by < the in spection service in the grading of farmers stock peanuts in North Carolina and Virginia during the 1960 season and future years. This .equipment will also be used in the Southeast and Sauthwest. The use of the screen shaker is considered by growers, buyers j and the inspection service as one of the most forward steps in peanut grading. The use of the shaker means that each sample will be shaken ait the same speed and the exact number of seconds. , The human element will be com j pletely eliminated. No inspector, regardless of how conscientious can shake all samples at the same speed and the exact num-l ber of seconds. The automatic kernel splitter is' more accurate than hand split-' ting but the main advantage of' the splitter is that it saves con-J siderable time. Both tne snaker and splitter j have been thoroughly tested and. found to be accurate and uni-1 form. Each piece of grading eqipment has been approved and recommended by grower organi zations and buyer groups in all peanut producing sections of the country and have been officially approved by the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture. The screen snakier will be a requirement for the grading of peanuts. All who intend to op erate grading stations and have not placed their orders for the shakers should immediately placet someone maybe you’ll phone ahead FIRST!” A quick, inexpensive telephone coll ahead can save y®** ***** ® n< l trouble too, the next time you aro planning a visit or a trip. Eoch year more and more people learn that a telephone call is the simplest and most inexpensive woy to obtain reservations, to make sure you ore met on time or just to moke sure your friends and relatives expect you when you go to visit. Next time you take a trip, phone Kk ahead first... and be sure. The Norfolk & Carolina i THE CHOW Alt HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, TRORBDAT. JULY 21. 1180. | their order by writing to B. S.

Mr. Rich will forward a form toj 'be completed and returned toj him. j The splitter is not required but' orders have been placed for more than fifty machines. Any-j one desiring a splitter who has not placed his order should place an order at once. Both the shakers and splitters 1 will be made in North Carolina by reputable firms. “We are • pleased that we can have them . made locally as it will save on freight charges, . will be more ' convenient to get replacements ( and parts; and it will keep the business in our state,” an official , in the Inspection Service said.

In pursuing our series of “God’s Justice and Mercy,” we deal today with the central ques tion for this lesson: What does it mean to love God steadfast ly? Hosea entered history at a - time when there was a nation ial feud between persons who * wished to support the Assyrians and those who were allies of the , Egyptians. Both these enemies < I were pagan nations. The result was anarchy and moral break down. Outlaws flourished, and i . the priests were as degraded Yas the people. Hosea, in the I chapter we are studying today, I points out that the people took A their separation from God light- J ly. They felt that they could I take or leave their religion. A They expected God to receive Y them back even when they felt I no hint of remorse. This was 1 Chowan County Churches k EDENTON BAPTIST a RF.V. R. N. CARROLL. Pastor | Sunday School at 9:45 A. M.

As important a question as any we can ask is this; Are Chris tians today cultivating their af fections so they can appreciate and receive the love God wants to share with them? In a highly-gared work-a-day world such as that we live in today, secular interests do in fringe upon almost every experi ence and every waking hour. The society in which we live— demanding so much of a man to earn a livelihood, keep his status, outdistance his competitor —forces the pursuit of the spirit ual into the constructed boun daries of one or two hours a week, leaving virtually untouch ed the broad highway of 166 hours, Sunday through Saturday, week after week, month after month. The world that finally passes away strangely holds us in its grip. The Kingdom that is eternal must battle for its place in our hearts. Although in our hearts we long for God, un less we deliberately cultivate an attachment to him we will be come utterly and irrevocably alienated from him. Our secular involvements are admittedly important.
