LENA M. LEARY Clerk of Superior Court 491 arum By £ N. (Psto) Maiming Q—Should children be per mitted to attend funerals? A—Authorities agree that it Is not only proper to permit a child to go to a funeral but, from about the age of seven, the youngster should be en couraged to attend. If the child is unwilling, however, he should not be forced to at tend nor be made to feel guilty for not doing to. Q —May a widow be con sidered to be living in the same household with her hus band for purposes of qualify ing for the lump-sum death payment if he was in a hos pital prior to and at the time of death? A—Generally yes, where the hospitalization was the only reason he was not sharing the same living quarters with her at death. If a husband and wife customarily lived togeth er as such, the temporary ab sence of one does not preclude a finding that they were liv ing in the same household.

CHAPEL HILL —North Ca rolinians contributed a Uftal of $869,271, to the 1970 Heart Fund, an increase of $71,399 over the 1909 total, it was an nounced by Dr. J. Dewey Dor sett, Jr., of Charlotte, presi dent of the North Carolina | Heart Association. "It is gratifying to note that this campaign total, rep resenting the largest increase in the association’s 21-year history, was the result of con tributions from North Caro linians during a period of in creased concern about eco nomic conditions,” said Dr. Dorsett. "It is even more gratifying to note that North Carolinians are concerned about the ravages of heart disease in this state. In 1919, 23,679 Tar (Heels died of heart disease. That is 53.2 per cent of all deaths in the state. The Heart Fund dol lars are used to support the fight to reduce these figures through the programs of the association.” The North Carolina Heart Association, with headquart ers in Chapel Hill, conducts programs to reduce premature deaths from cardiovascular renal disease through re search, public and professional education and community ser vice programs.

Make Going To Church A Habit LIVING FBACM&Y WITH OTHERS International Sunday School Lesson for Sept • Memory Selection: “If it be possible, as much as lietfy in you, live peaceably with all men.”— Ramans 12:18. Lesson Text: Genesis 28; Matthew 5:0; James 4.1-3. Today’s lesson is built around the exhortation contained in our Memory Selection for this week. It is not an easy feat to accomplish—and if we are in any doubt about that then a mere glance at the headlines in otar newspapers day after day will dispel the illusion. Strife and dissent are everywhere—in our own country, and abroad. Unrest distrust—these are the signs of toe times—our times. In this stray of Isaac perhaps we, as indivi duals, will crane near to discovering his precious secret—the ability to live at peace with hawrif, his fellow men, and God. For, for this great man, living in peace was not simply a cessation from war between coun tries; it was, rather, a consistent attitude of good will towards those with whom he dwelt, even though they were of different faiths and buck grounds. You might say the secret was con tained in one word—“tolerance.” A thoughtful, obedient boy, who honored his father and his | father’s beliefs, (as witnessed in the account , contained in our last lesson) Isaac grew to man i hood in away that was pleasing to God. A man of peace, he was undaunted by setbacks, per sistent and patient And God rewarded these virtues. There was, at last, hope for Isaac's people. Throughout Biblical history we have seen men r>? great strength and great feats emerge as i messengers of Christianity. In contrast, now we i see Isaac—peaceable Isaac—almost unremarkable Isaac—impress his enemies by his fortitude in the midst of persecution. We see a simple man ; of God prosper, and bring prosperity to his people; not by spectacular acts, but by practical faith. Surely that should give us renewed con fidence in our roles as Christians. An ordinary man with a purpose can be a shining aramgJn * to those around him. Isaac attained greatness because he dedicated himself to exemplifying God’s will for mankind. He took up the work of God where his father, Abraham, left off; he did it quietly and without fanfare. He had been an apt student, quick to follow the example that had been set When Abraham turned towards Canaan after Lot had left him, God promised to Israel pnssrir sion of great wealth. But the gift had to be earned. Isaac quietly and unobtrusively did his part to bring this about—and with success. God still proffers to us His gifts of peace ■««! brotherhood and innate prosperity to us today— but, like Israel, we must earn them. We must work hard for the furtherance of God’s way, and we must not be discouraged. We must have faith. Isaac was brought to manhood under the guid ance of a father who had unsbakeable faith in Continued on Page I G^eCfcTykr Your Happy Shopping Store W. E.
