! older workers as persons in
■* the labor force who are over
forty and prohibits em
ployers from discriminating
’ against them based on age.
Mrs. Alice Bond, manager
of the Edenton Job Services
Office, cited Federal
Government studies
• -showing that older workers
• Iquit their jobs half as
1 1 frequently as those under 40
those after 40 tend to
, -achieve higher performance
- ratings than those hired
before age 30.
Mrs. Bond called on all
area residents who are over
40 and are seeking job
placement or counselling
assistance and employers
wishing to list openings to
contact the local office at 709
North Broad Street;

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
PREPARATION FOR TOE LORD’S RETURN
International Sunday School Lesson for March
Scripture: Matthew 24:36-51
By Mrs. Jesse Waller •
Thornton Wilder wrote a play “The Happy Journey,” in
which he portrays a family on an ecstatic, journey to see the
mairied daughter, whom they love. In watching this play,
the audience is caught up in the happy anticipation of see
ing the loved one again, and the happy reunion.
Recently, in writing to a friend, to thank her for an un
expected telephone call, I wrote: “Life is so beautiful and
short that I take nothing for granted anymore. I appreciate
each little joy.”
Now how can we speak of Christ's return in such casual
terms? Because He was once a man, a perfect man, who
lived here in our world. He promised His loved ones He
would return someday, wheh they least expected. It was in
His Father's hands, and therefore the time was not known
except fay the Father. If He had set the date, like so many
people tty to do, 1 wonder if we would be more anxious and
watchful.
The way we live will determine whether we|are expecting
His return with jqy or sorrow. His love is new every, morn
ing, and we nnst be thankful for each day He gives us to
spread His kingdom, gnd to warn those we love. One truth
is sure, Jesus is coming, because we cannot excape this ,
teaching all| through the New Testament.
Jesus compared the nature of His return to that of the
time of the flood. It will be an exact parallel, “as were the
days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man.” It
will be a complete surprise. This should help those who are
probe to speculate about the time. It is enough to know it
is in God’s plan. * -
No matter how many sermons are preached on Christ’s
coming, or how many Bible classes are given on this sub
ject, there will be still, many who prefer to remain immersed
in material things.
Jesus last week here on earth was spent just like all of
His other days, in service and teaching and warning, and in
miracles. He wasn’t frantically rushing mound preparing for
his win and funeral and disposition of earthly possessions.
Someone has said thatj God knewi that many wouldn’t be- /
Have in miracles, so He caused the dogwood to blossom,
and the daffodils to bloom, so we could hold a miracle in our
hands.
As Christina, we ahould take afresh look at our daily
lives, in thelifht of this prophesy. If we re happy for our
