P DIRTRIC PoiNT RS by Di. Josoph T. Boll Podiotrkion mith ftoboion Hoolth Coio Indi m women have always been Miiari and resourceful people An example of tins isc\ ident in the way Name women watched after their infants Remember that in mane Indian cultures, the woman was the primary worker, she was not only the cook and cleaner, but she also gathered and worked the fields The women saw the need to keep the infants with them while they worked, not just for safety sake, but to also strengthen the bond of mother and child They often accomplished this by using a cradle board (some-limes called a baby board or papoose) The child would bebdnd into the opening of the cradle and then the board was strapped to the mother's back while she worked or travelled The cradle board and child could be hungon tree 11 nibs to keep the child out of reach of prcyinganimals roaming the grounds Hanging the cradle on sw ay ing limbs also helped rock the babies to sleep Pretty smart, huh!? These day s we have other ways of watching infants at home Probably the most popular device used is the infant walker Most parents view walkers as being safe sources of infant stimulation and activity. More than 7u% of infants, usuafly from age 5 to 12 months, use infant walkers Unfortunately, walkers often substitute for good parental superv ision Therefore, almost 50% of all infants using walkers arc at some time involved in a walker-related accident The mosl common injuries seen w ilh w alkcrs include from falls dow n stairs, lipping oncrand trapping fingers against something The probability. of an accident increases with the time spent inawalkcr. fallsoeeur in less than 30% of infants who spend less than 2 hours a day in a walker, but the percentage increases to 55% for those in the walker o\cr 2 hours a day It is discouraging to know most accidents occur w uli at least one parent sonieNvlicrc.au the house Fortunately, most walker accidents arc minor and do not need medical attention Howc\cr. some of these accidents were the third leading cause of head trauma Some of the injuries reported included skull fractures and inflammation of the brain. Wc must remember that the muscles used for cruising in a walker and walking arc different muscles therefore, walkers do not teach an infant how to walk sooner In sonic infants with cerebral palsy, it probably even delays walking Keeping all this in mind, wens parents should be cautious about walker use especially in unsupervised infants who spend a lot of time in walkers Their use is discouraged by the American Academy of Pediatrics I personally feel they can be useful, but with the closest of supervision Let's alway s be thinking of safe ways to care for and supervise our children Sec you next week!

Envin Jacobs, Post Surgeon A ccording to Scripture Sponsored by Pembroke Seventh Day Adventist Church Q Is there a positively sure command in the Bible that we should keep the Sabbath' A Leviticus 25 5 "Si\dayssli.ill work be done, but the seventh da> is the Sabbath of rest, an hol> convocalion. ye shall do no work therein, it is the Sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings Deuteronomy 5:12 "Keep the Sabbath day to sane ill) it. as the Lord tin (Jod hath comntanded thee" Deuteronomy 5 14 "But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord ihv God. in it thou shall not do any work. thou, nor thy son. nor thy daughter, not thv manservant, nor thv maidservant, nor thine ox. nor thine ass. not any oHhc cattle, north) stranger that is within thv gates; that thv manservant and thv maidservant may rest as well as thou " Deuteronomy 5:15 "And remember that thus wast a servant in the land of Egypt and that the Lord thv God brought thee out thence through a might) hand and by a stretched out arm. therefore the Lord thv God commanded thee to keep the Sabbath day" Nchcmiah 10 51 "And if the people of the land bring warcnorSlTT victuals on the Sabbath dav to sell that we would not buy it of them on the Sabbath, or on the holy dav; and that we would leave the scv cnlh year and the exaction of every debt." Q: Will the Sabbath be finally done away with at the end of the world? A: Since it is the memorial of the creation of this w orld by Jesus, it will never be done away with, and in fact the keeping of the Sabbath is prophesied for those who live in the Earth and made new! / Isaiah 66:22-23 "For as the new heavens and the new earth, which 1 will make, shall remain before me. saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall conic io pass that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another shall all flesh conic to worship before nic saith the Lord." Q: Didn't Jesus break the Sabbalh? A: First of all. Jesus didn't sin by the definition of sin found in I John 3:4 Since the Sabbath is part of the Ten Commandments. we see. therefore. thai Jesus could not ha\ c broken lhe Sabbath and still hase been our sinless sa\ lor on Cal\ an The reason that the Pharisees accused Jesus of breaking the Sabbath was that He had no respect for their man made add 11 ions to the law These man made additions were vers sclfscning Fir instance. they allowed themselves to gel their ow n ox out of the ditch. yet I hey claimed JesusbrokelhcSabbath lor healing on that day It was not the real law that Me was breaking but their man made traditions and pcrccplionsorSabbalh keeping requirements What does the thhlclcach about the proper way to keep the Sabbath'' A Of course, we have the command itself in Exodus 20:8-11 and the follow ing verses, but a lot of it is left to your conscience Isaiah 58:1.1 "If thou turn away thy fool front the Sabbath, from doinglhy pleasure on my holy day. and call the Sabbath a delight, the holv of the l ord, honorable and shall honor Him not doing thine ow n ways, nor findingthincown pleasure, but speaking thine own words." Matthew 12:10-12 "And. behold. there was a man which had his hand w ithered. And they asked Him. saving. is it lawful to heal orihe Sabbath day? that they might accuse Hint And He said unto them, what man shall there be among you that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the Sabbath dav will he not lav hold on it and lift it out? How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath day." Q: What was Jesus' custom and His example for us to follow on how to keep the Sabbath? A: John 5:9 "And immediately the man was made w hole and took up his bed and walked: and on the same day woe the Sabbath " Mark 3:2 "And they watched Him, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath day: that thev might accuse Him." 1 Mark 3:4 "AndHcsailhunlolhcni. is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath day. or to do evil? to save life or,to kill? But they held their peace." Mark 6:2 "And when the Sabbath day was conic. He began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing Him were astonished, saying from whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is giv en unto Him that ev en such mighiv works arc wrought by His hands? * John 5:10 "The Jews therefore sa id unto him that was curedit isftlie Sabbath day: it is not law ful fortlicc to carry thy bed " John 5:16 "And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus and sought to slay Him because He had done these things on the Sabbath day " Luke 4:16 "And He csinic to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. and. as His custom was. He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day. and stood up the read " Luke 4:31 "And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the Sabbath day " Luke 6:6 "And it came to pass also on another Sabbath that He entered into the synagogue and taught them and there was a man whose right hand was w ithered." Luke 13: It) "And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath." Luke 13:14-15 "And the ruler of the sy nagogue answered with indignation. because that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath day and said unto the people there arc six days in which T?c!^?gRu^?on!^iUhcn^hcrc^ Tore conic and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day. The Lord then answered him. and said, thou hypocritc. doth not each or you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his ass (Yoni < the stall and lead him awa> to watering?" Luke l.3;l<> "And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo. these eighteen years be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day ?" Luke 14 3 "And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saving. is it law (ill lo heal on the Sabbath day '" John 7:23 "If a man on the Sabbath day receive circumcision that the law of Moses should not be broken: arc ye angry at me because I have made a man every whit whole on the Sabbath say?" See also mark 1:21 We can see it was Jesus' example lo heal, to leach, to preach, lo give consolation and to go to church' Even emergencies were allowed for Luke 14:5. Shouldn't we follow Jesus' example? Say you read it in Carolina Indian Voice.
