Purchasing a new home is
no casual investment. It's
probably the biggest buy
youll ever make. So it pays
to look first at every angle
of the deal. Making a poor
choice could be the most
regrettable financial error
of your life.
According to the U.S.
Department of Housing and
Urban Development, two
out of every three buyers
selected a used house.
HUD's free booklet, Wise
Home Buying, can help
make the house hunting a

you're looking for a new
house or an old one. For

The old rules about
home buying are changing
with the times. Bankers
used to say you should
never pay more than two to
two-and-one-half times your
annual family income for
your home. Another way
of putting it was, don't
budget more than one
fourth your gross monthly
salary for monthly housing
expenses, including heat,
utilities, maintenance.
Today, some families are
spending more than 30
of their gross monthly in

Heart Facts
About Children
' A simple description of
the circulatory system and
how it works is given in an
illustrated booklet, "About
Your Heart and Your
Bloodstream," written for
children and available
without charge for single
copes from the North
Carolina Heart Association.
Beginning with the fact
that the body is made up
of different kinds of cells,
the text explains how
the blood stream supplies
cells with food -and oxy
gen and -carries away the
cells waste products. The
booklet describes the role
of the capillaries in this
exchange and how they link
the arteries and veins. The
heart is compared to a
pump which keeps the
bloodstream flowing
and a diagram shows how
valves assist blood ' cir
culation through the heart's
chambers, into the lungs,
and throughout the body. '
After an explanation of
the pulse and some things
that affect it, the booklet
tells how take the pulse
ands suggests a research
project: that the child
compare pulse rates before
and after running around
the room. 1
Parents and teachers
interested in the booklet
may write to the North

"JESUS AVOIDS FAME AND GLORY
By Rev. C.R. STONE, D.D.
Pastor, First Ledge Rock Baptist Church
Jesus knew who He was at birth andthat the Father
would openly glorify Him as the Beloved Son. Jesus was to
be revealed to men through His works, and not primarily
through His ability to speak on matters. Although the
Scriptures reveal to us Jesus' works and speakings, His
works promoted fame among the peoples. On occasions
wherein Jesus spoke, He was an unusual man possessed
with authority. However, He made no attempt through
authority to exalt Himself but rather positioned His power
as being in God the Father.
How was Jesus careful not to elevate the self-image often
attributed to men? Jesus submitted His will to the Father
in the form as any ordinary servant would do to his master.
He became obedient, knowing His purpose from His begin
ning until the conclusion of His death on the cross. He
appeared on earth to have been poor, yet was rich in love,
mercy and grace. In fact, He came to earth not to be
served but rather to serve all ages which was Hi calling to
fulfill. Further, God was preparing His Son to be openly
glorified as Saviour and Judge of the whole world of men.
With this God-given purpose in mind at all times, He sought
not to accept the fame and glory which could have been
obtained through man-made procedures.
Again, Jesus was careful not to do all things for all
persons upon their requests. Some persons of evil sought
with power and might to distract His attention from the
God-given purpose positioned within Him. For instance,
Jesus was offered, though not for real, such fame and glory
as the Kingdoms of the world for worshipping Satan.
However,Jesus was careful not to become the servant of
two masters. In addition, Jesus had the opportunity to
strike-it-rich with Satan's offers, but refused the fame and
glory.
He who hath ears, let him hear.
