It was baked, by Mrs. Dale Styron for her brother-in law, Eugene Willis. Both are from Atlantic, and Willis is a friend of the Scott family. It was the largest campaign cake she has baked. • It wasn’t large enough, however, to feed the more than 600 people attending the rally. i “I understand my oppo nent is now an author,” Scott told Young Demo crats at a statewide rally. “He has a publication which I hear is on the newsstands for a dollar a copy. “It doesn’t take a dollar g/ HtUffor) 5 funeral home I 1 edenton. n. e j | Dear friends, = Orief at the passing of a | loved one is both natural | and norm al.

Lesson Text: Hebrews 4-6; 8-9. Continuing the theme that God is able to sus tain His people in adversity, and that He through His Son, Jesus Christ, has provided us with a mediator without peer, we continue our study in Hebrews. It is generally acknowledged that a priest— or, indeed, any member of the cloth knows more about God than those of us in more secu lar pursuits. To them we look for advice, spir itual sustenance and guidance—just as we look in the professional field to attend to those things beyond the knowledge of ordinary men. For theirs is a specialized field, a calling for men of special caliber, special understanding of the problems that beset ordinary, every-day human beings. Man—in his relationship to God—is a pigmy. True, we can approach God in prayer —as we should. But, to the thinker, God is acknowledg ed to be the Almighty, and awe can border on fear, so easily, that we become tongue-tied and ashamed of ourselves, and of our problems. It is no great wonder, therefore, that we identify ourselves more easily with Jesus Christ. For He assumed our form; He walked among hum ans, seeing their strivings, their failings, aware of their doubts, and of the limitations of their minds. He was tempted by the devil, as we have been tempted from time immemorial. True—He withstood His temptations, whereas we (who are not of His strength) too often succumb to ours. But anyone who has read the account of the Crucifixion cannot help but be moved by His last words uttered before He gave up the Ghost . . . “My God, my God—why hast thou forsaken me? . . .”—these words bring home, more than any other possibly could, the com plete and all-encompassing humanity that was in Jesus. Close to God (and none could be closer); a creature of infinite understanding of the ways of God, He nevertheless was beset by the very human feeling of despair. His suffer ing was very real—the suffering of body, of mind, of soul. His limitations were the limita tions of the body and of the mind of man. He had to learn obedience, as does any child from his father. The big difference Is that God and Jesus Christ were one in a more exacting relationship than are ordinary fathers and sons, and it follows that the lessons were harder. He was taught by God through the instrument of suffering; but had He not been human —He would not have had to learn these lessons—so many of them in travail. No how can we doubt the humanity of Christ? Continued on Pago S BELK - TYLER’S EDENTON’S SHOPPING CENTER «HI»InmHIIIMMOIMIIIIMMIIHIHIIMIHMMMIIHNimMMIMHMMIIMMMIIIIHMIIII W. E.

Could you, without training or experience, take charge here? Could you sort and “spot” thousands of cars, have them ready at the right time on the right track to go out with the right train ? But every day your mind performs an operation even more complex. You sort and classify your thoughts and impulses. You decide what is right and wrong. You de termine which actions are urgent, and which can be de ferred. You resolve that some goals are important, and others are secondary. And every decision affects your life, and the lives of others! Preparing men and women—and boys and girls—to make the right decisions is one of the great functions of the Church. There are sound Christian standards by which life’s choices should be sorted. There is confidence and strength for those who seek, learn and practice the true Way of Life.
