JESUS' DEATH Editor's nute: This is tta fifth in a series of six article appearing in the Tribune con densed from Charles L. Allen' new book. The Life of Chris' copyrighted by Fleming l· Fevell Company. Used by per . mission. As they led Jesus away t he crucified, they took hold υ Simon, a Cyrenian who wa coming in from the country end made him carry the crom A large crowd followed, in eluding many women wh< mourned over him. Turning t< them, Jesus said, "Daughter: »>» Jerusalem, weep not for me hut weep for yourselves, anc for your children. For if the' do these things in a green tree what shall be done in tue dry Y They came to a place callec "The Place of a Skull," whicl in Hebrew is called Golgotha, They offered him a drink o, wine mixed with a bitter drug but when he had tasted <t, h« lefused to drink it. Then thej crucified him, and the crimin c.Is with him. one on his righ and the other on his left. Je yus said, "Father, forgive them for they know not what thej ' do " Pilate wrote an inscription iind it was put on the cross. It s«id, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS This inscription was read b\ many Jews, for the placc where Jesus was crucified wa* r.ear the city, and it was writ ten in Hebrew and Greek and Latin. The chief priests of tht Jews said to Pilate. "Write nul, The King of the Jews: but that he said. I am King of thi Jews." Pilate answered. "What I have written I have writ ten." When the soldiers had cru cified Jesus, they divided hi« clothes into four parts anci each of them took a part, ex cepting his cloak. The cloak was seamless, having been woven in one pioce. They said tc themselves. "Let us nut rend it. but cast lots for it. whose it shall bo." Those who parsed by shout ed abuse at him. They wagged their heads and said, "Thru ihat destroyest the temple, and huildest it in thro·· days, save thyself. II thou be the Son of God. come down from the cross." In the same manner the chief priests mocked him. a lcng with the scribes and eld ers, saying, "He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down trom the cross, awd we will believe him. H*; trusted in God: let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I *m the Son of God. One of the criminals, who was hanging there with him. heaped scorn on nim. saying. "II thou be Christ, save thy tell and us." The other crim inal rebuked him and answer ed, "Dost not thou fear (jot), seeing thou are in the same condemnation? And we indeed ji.stly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss." -And he said, "Lord, remember rr.e when thou eomest into thy kingdom." Jesus said to him. "Verily I say untc thee. To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." Standing near the cross oi Jesus was his mother, and her sister Mary, the wife of Cleo I has, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother end the disciple whom he lov ed standing near to her. he sf.id to her. "Woman, behold thy son!" Then he said to the disciple. "Behold thy mother!" From then on the disciple took Jiet to live in his home. From noon until three o'clock in the afternoon there was darkness over all the land. About three o'clock Jesus cri ed out loudly. "Eli. Eli. lama .•■j'bachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" When s< me of those standing there heard that, they said "This m<in calleth for Elias." After this, he knew that everything had been accom plished to fulfill the Script ire. He said, "I thirst." Im PAGE S TABOR CITY TKIBt'NE WED.. DEC. 1». as Every Wednesday la Tabor City.

It was a ' common sight to see cars stopped along the highways with the I smoke pouring out from the hoods. It must have been an ex j ceptionally fine day for garages and service stations as about one out of two cars failed to start on the oddest morning. ! Thursday morning, four of the employees here couldn't get to work on time because of various types of car failure. It was typic d of the whole community and certainly emphasizes the usefulness of automobiles these days. Just what would happen J if suddenly all cars and trucks were taken out of service? It I would sure make a chaotic world for awhile, wouldn't it? ' CHRISTMAS: Next week we go to press on Monday. Christmas Eve. instead of Wednesday as usual. It's :i bad day for going to press for going to press for us but then we couldn't help the fact that Christmas falls on Tuesday. Ideal situations for us is ι when Christmas comes on Friday or Saturday. ι muusini: as we nave been predicting all along. Tabor City is soon almost certain to sign one or more new industries. There are no names on contracts yet but agreement has been reached with the prospects and soon there should be an an nouncement of contract signing. About the only thing th.it can throw the plans astray now is the upcoming labor survey and subsequent training program that will determine whether we have adequate, trainable personnel available. All the statistics indicate that this labor is here in abundance but it will take a thorough survey to determine this to the complete satisfac tion of the industrial prospects. YAMS: The way sweet potatoes Have been leaving Tabor City ;n rwnt days indicite that there are going to be plenty of this delicacy on the Christmas dinner tables. Both canned ant', tresh vims are available to brokers in Tabor City in wholesale quantities as the yam production this year hit a peak much above thai of recent past seasons. BERRIES: All preliminary reports indicate that this will be a bumper strawberry season in Tabor City. American Food's will be here for its second year and growers .trc now fully aware of the fine organization that handled the berry crop in Tabor City a year ago. There's mure acreage than in 1962 and if a good production season is furthcoming, we jxpuct to s···· a real fine spring economy with the berry money approaching that if some years ago before the strawberry starten its piung into depression. American Foods was hiippv wi*!i the results .f its first season's operation and we believe just about every farmer was happy too. We expect this mutual feeling of satis faction to be even more pronounced this spring. ROBBERY: The redheaded babv-faeed bandit vv'th the low voice didn't get enough cash from the Waccamaw Bank to carry ' hi:n very far. just SM*. Bv th»· tune he nulls about five or ten years for the job, and he will eventually get something like that, it will be the hardest $307 he ever got ahold of. Of coursc, j he probably expected to get a bag full of money that would add up to thousands when he pulled his gun on the laay teller, but she was smart enough and coil enough to give him mostly i $1.00 bills. This teller was apparently cooler t np most of u i would have been in the face of 'he bandits gun. But once he left the bank, she was suddenly aware of the threat she had ! just faced and became rather emotional and shook up. It was kind of like not being scared in an auto wreck until it was al! over and then passing out from delayed shock. KILLER: Did you ever stop to think about wh ι·. a killer t'ie i highways are? Not only is it a leading <ia«.KMtor ·■! mankind I but of animals as well. On the way to Florence ' ne morning recently, we observed two dead dogs, two dead chn kens and an opossum before we got to Green Sea. And it h.isn t been too many months ago since we ran headlong into a covey of I quail in flight across the highway. They splattered off the ! .viiidshicld in every direction. We don't know how.many died j in that accident but it was apparently about half ;· covey. ι mi diately one .if them ran ami got a sponge, filled it with wine, put it on a stick and put i! lo his lips. The others said. "Let be. let us see whether ! Elias will come to save him." When Jesus had received the ; wine, he said. "It is finished." Then in a loud vrice he said Father, into thy hands I coin | m«nd my spirit." Having sai l that, he died. At that very moment, the curtain of thv! temple was torn in two from J'jp to bottom. The earth shook 1 ünd the rocks were split open. I»laves were opened and many I bodies of the saints came to life and. coming out of thei»· giaves after his resurrection. : they went in to Jerusalem and were seen by many Because it was the day of I reparation for the Passover, and because bodies should not remain on the cross on the S&bbath, for the Sabbath wa· •ι holy day. the Jews request ' ed Pilate to have the men's It Rs broken and their bodies I; Κιΐι away I n·· soldiers came ι .md broke the l>gs "f the tw* v*hi> wire crucified with Jesu.». When they ««it to Jesus and yaw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. One of the soldiers thiust a spe'ir in his side, and immodi- j i»t< ly blood and water caric out.

CRACKDOWN ON TEENAGE HOT-RODDERS Details of proposed legislation to crack down on teenage tralVic-ticket prone drivers was recently released by the Governor's Coordinating Com mittee on Traffic Safety. The bill, which will be- introduced in the 1963 General Assembly is aimed at reduc ing the number of violations and acci dents caused by drivers under the age of 20. The two main provisions of the bill call for completion of a driver edu cation course· for all new drivers be tween the ages of 16 and 18. and for a tightening of the reins of drivers up to age 20 who collect traffic tickets for moving violations. Anyone who has ever paid auto in surance on teenage drivers knows all to well that insurance companies con aider young drivers a poor risk, and statistics bear out the compauiee hesi tancy to insure teenagers at low rates. 111 l'Jtfl drivers unuer 20 made up 7.7 percent of the driving public but represented 15.Γ» percent of drivers in volved in all accidents and 14.5 per cent of drivers in all fatal accidents. "The bill is not a crackdown on all young drivers, but seeks only to pen alize the few dangerous youngsters who are responsible for the alarming accident experience among young people," Phil Ellis, executive director of the safety committee, said. We only hope that the General Assembly will give this bill careful consideration and see its way clear to pass this or similar safety legislation. We· have let the blood of our young people cover our highways too long. TEN COMMANDMENTS There's no such thing as a guaran tee against getting heart disease, anil any hard-and-fast blueprint for a way of living that furnishes such a guaran tee is a long way off, says the Colum bus County Heart Council. Rut you can increase your chances of preventing heart trouble by living with moderation — the essence of the North Carolina Heart Association's "Ten Commandments lor Living With Your Heart." 1. Find a doctor you respect, obey him, and cling to him as though he were your most precious possession —which he is. (It's important to you to build a continuing relationship with a doctor who is familiar with your condition. When you find one in whom you have confidence, stop shopping.) 2. Tell your doctor the truth at all times and encourage him to call you in for periodic check-ups. (When you kid the doctor, you sim i ply kid yourself. He's there to help you, not to pass judgment on you.) 3. Pity the fat man; the statistician numbers his days. (When you cut down on your food, you don't lose anything—doctors be lieve you will eat as much in the long run by living longer.) 4. If your brain earns your living, be moderate as a weekend athlete or laborer. (But do get as much regular exer I eise as possible.) ι 5. If the snowdrifts are high, let some younger fellow shovel out the driveway. (Unless you're accustomed to reg ular physical exercise and are in top shape.) 6. Avoid self-dosing — "He who doctors himself has a fool for a physician." (Your doctor wouldn't try to do your job — don't try to do his.) 7. Fortunate is the man who has a mild heart condition and, knowing it, learns to live with his heart. (A touch of heart disease» can be a valuable warning signal, leading you to live in such a way that you can still be active and add years to — rather than substract them from your life.) 8. Plan to take time out — daily, weekly, yearly — for rest. When you rest, your heart rests. (Automobile batteries need re charging. So do yours.) 9. Don't worry. Health is more than the absence of disease. If you have cause to worry, do all you can to remedy the cause — and stop worrying. (Excess tension can overwork vejr heart. You will be happier if you live positively.) 10. Be your age. (Every age has its riches. Enjoy them as they come lo you.) , Rays Ramblins By Ray Wickel Story Behind A Story φ Ijiist week we ran across the type of story we love to write about. Winston Gore, owner of Gore's CiUif Service, called us ,about quitting time on the Friday prior to last week's edition ol the Tribune, and asked if we'd be interested in talking to a fellow who had stopped in his station on the way to (Jali- ι fornia on a bicycie. We droppeu the phone and just about broke our neck and camera getting out the door, for even to our inexperience nose, Winston's message spolleiL> Ν-.,-W-S. l * Interesting Visit Our story about this cross - country cyclist ap pc wed on the front page of last week's Tribune, out we could not write all this young fellow told us during our two hour conversation. ixe was in no nurry as his means of transportation home indicated, and we talked about his experiences hi the boy Scouts, his two years 011 a Mormon Mis ."un, and his thoughts 011 North Carolina and it i>eopie . 1 lie talked about now he hated Worth Carolina when the Army first sent him to Fort Bragg, but in· added that during his stay in this slate, he had grown to like it here and actually hated to leave. Mormon Friends As darkness approached, the young ex-GI began asking the small group gathered in the service sta tion if they knew ot a barn or shed where he could spend the night, then he asked if there were any ! Aim mens in this area. Someone spoke up and sai<% ; that two young Mormons were staying at Jimmy Dieus' home, and the cyclist's face lit up. "Well. 1 won't have to worry about a place to with them as long as he wished. stay," he said. V\'e got in our car, and he mountetl his bicycle, and he followed us to Die us' home. The two Mormons welcomed our cycling friend, and said he could stay long as he wished. Their hospitality to another of their faith whoni^ ι they had never mei before warmed our heart, but it also started us wondering how many people who j belonged to the larger, more prominent religious : faiths wruld open their homes to a total stranger ' ,ust bixause he told them he was a member of the i same faith as theirs. The two-hour visit with this young fellow was a warming experience and we thank Winston Gore ! for calling us. I I For The People Pv l.ci nadelte XV. Ilo.vlc l'ubüc Information Officer N. C.
