Children’s Home
Society Votes To
Begin Remodeling
Directors of the Children’s
i Home Society of North Carolina
met February 14 at the King
Cotton Hotel in Greensboro and
voted to start remodeling the
society’s old office building at
740 Chestnutt Street to alleviate
j crowded working conditions.
Norman Cooper, chairman of j
the Building Committee, said
$5,100 in unsolicited gifts had
been received to start the job.
i Benjamin Cone, president of
’ the Society, reported a $2,000 ,
legacy from the estate of the
j late Ralph Holt of Burlington
!to be held in reserve for the
building fund. He reported that
the society’s total income during
the past year was $244,509.44
and that expenses totaled $243,-
! 422.42. Both figures were the
largest in the Society’s history.
The Society’s 1960 statistical
report showed, with the biggest
I volume of service rendered in
! any one year, it aided a total
'of 640 babies and children—l 99
were; placed in homes and 441
were helped in other ways. This
was 71 more children helped
than last year. A total of 390
unwed mothers were helped d>
ing the year compared with 361
for 1959. During the year 946
couples filed application to adopt
babies. The average waiting
time for adoptive applicants was
approximately 12 to 15 months.

was his glory and the means of
man’s salvation.
The third sign—the Greeks, as
heretofore mentioned-—symboliz
ed the whole world’s coming to
the Christ in his glory on the
cross.
But how can the death of one,
lone person all those long cen
turies ago affect us today, we j
ask? How can it provide salva- j
tion? In what way was Jesus’ j
death different from that of the
many other martyrs to the birth
of Christianity, as chronicled
through the ages?
In the first place, Jesus’ death
was unique. A martyr sacrifices
his life for a principle or a cause. I
Jesus gave his life for the sins
of the world. As we saw a few
lessons ago, Jesus’ ministry, even
in his healing miracles, was the j
casting out of demons —the de-!
feat of evil in mankind and all
the universe.
Jesus’ cross is the climax of
his struggle. There he fought
his fight with evil to the bitter
end. And the Resurrection shows
that Jesus was victorious. On
the cross he vanquished evil
i once and for all.
The New Testament pictures
man and Cod as being estranged, j
but it is man’s guilt and not ■
God’s anger that is at fault. The |
cross, or the Atonement, is God’s j
act to reconcile man to himself, j
It is God who does the recon
ciling. He does this through the
! cross, to show us how agoniz
ingly he caires. i
Redemption always involves
suffering. And, strange as it
may seem, not only the forgiven
but also the forgiver suffers.
God agonized within himself
for what, offending man was—
for what he had become as com
pared with what he might have
' been and yet could be. This
suffering for our salvation shines
from the cross. Christ's being
“lifted up” draws all men. Once
