I Cor, 11:14 V human Text: Matthew 26:17-30 W art fast approaching the last Vraaria events in the life of Jesus. Jilly aware of his imminent death, Jesus continually brings to rae nunua of his disciples the fact that he is moil to die. This was the greatest single event in his - entire life on earth the climax as it were for he came to die. He lived a holy, biame Wa Gife in order that he might pre sent himself a sacrifice, a lamb without blemish, to God that by his death redemption would be possible for all men who would believe on him. Up to this time, Jesus avoided decisive conflict with his enemies, although he had always met them in open discussion and prevailed, Mow, he well knew that they were plotting his death, yet he willingly allowed them to seize him for execution. The Sanhedrin and its members iwere overwhelmingly opposed to this popular "prophet." These men real ized that their religious leadership of the people was finished unless they could prevent the increasing re ligious ascendency of this new teach er. Their efforts to entangle him in his teachings or to embroil him with the Roman authorities had miserably failed- He was too popular with the masses of the people to be openly arrested, therefore, it was necessary for them to scheme and plot While these religious conspirators waited for the crowds who were at tending the Passover festival to leave Jerusalem and go back home, Jesus enjoyed the company of his friends near Jerusalem, probably spending several nights in Bethany at the home of his frjends, Mary, Martha and Lazarus. It was on one of these occasions, during this last week, while Jesus and his disciples were guests for supper at.the home of Simon, that Mary annomted him with the costly perfume, an act of love which caused many to grumble at the apparent waste. Apparently so indignant was Judas Iscariot that he immediately began his negotia tions with the chief priest and suc ceeded in making a bargain to be tray him into their power. On Thursday of that week, Jesus gathered with his disciples in an upper room of a house in Jerusalem, supposed to have been the home of Mary, the mother of John Mark. Prior to or during the preparations for the supper, there seems to have been a discussion between the dis ciples as to which were to have the seats of honor, another evidence of the spirit of pride and ambition in the hearts of these men. Jesus used this occasion to enact one of his greatest lessons in humility and ser vice.' This -he did by washing the feet of j ft ,",hscip(ies. Durinjj.-the supper, Jesus, declared that oije of this select group of , twelve inei would betray hita unto his enemiesheieupon P(etier nodded to John '.to ask, Jesus who r it was. Jesus quietly signified to1 the' disciple he loved that it was Judas, - shortly thereafter Judas left the i table and went out into the darkness of the night to confer with those who were buying .his disloyalty with pieces of silver. ' , Whle they were eating Jesus took bread, and blessed it and broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take, eat; this; is my body," thus symbolizing the broken bread as his broken body, soon to be broken by death. Then, he took a cup, and af ter giving thanks, he handed it to his disciples, declaring, "Drink ye all of it, for this is my blood of the cove nant, which is poured out for many unto remission of sins," thus using the wine as a symbol of his blood which was soon to be offered for the sake of his disciples and all man kind who believed on him. Dr. G. Campbell Morgan once said, "There are three things we need to remember concerning the Lord's Sup per. It is a commemoration.

It is more than a commemora tion, it is a communion, in which, through all the' coming age, bands nf his disciples shall sit down and take bread and fruit of the vine, and in the sacred material act, enter into an actual and spiritual com munion with him. It ia more, it is a covenant, declaring that those who sit at the board are made one with him in all the enterprises of the heart. The old passover feast was the feast of the exodus and was feast of hope. The new is the feast of the exodus, but the exodus that he has accomplished, which no longer fills the heart with hope, but with the certainty of an already achieved victory ..."

HILL Certified Public Accountant Norfolk, Virginia It is the purpose of this column to present to the readers of The Per quimans Weekly a digest of the In come and Social Security (both Fed eral and State) tax 'laws, as well as, the information relative, to the Wage and Hour law; both based upon the last regulations received, which will be presented as questions and ans wers, a form which it is thought most suitable for conveying tax in formation. Furthermore, it is the purpose of this column to invite questions from the readers of The Perquimans Weekly concerning features of the several tax laws mentioned that might apply to a particular case. Answers, which will be furnished in subsequent issues, will be formulated according to the law, where so ap plicable, and opinions will be based upon the latest information available. FEDERAL TAXES Continued Corporations , i -1 According to the regulations the tax on corporations is divided as be tween "Tax on Corporations in Gen eral" and "Tax on Special Corpora tions." The former having net in come of more than $25,000.00, and the latter having net incomes of not more than $25,000.00. An alterna tive tax is provided in cases where the income is slightly more than $25,000.00. The tax on corporations, particu larly those whose net income exceeds $25,000.00 is more difficult of com putation than the tax on individuals, because of the alternative tax above referred, as well as, to the other provisions affecting incomes over $25,000.00. The instructions accompanying the tax returns should be carefully stu died m order that returns may be correctly prepared, as it is impossible to present more than a few of the details within the limits of the time and space allotted to this column. " What are the Rates of Tax on Corporations? On net income of $25,000.00 or less the rates are as follows: On the first $5,000.00 of normal net income 12V2; on the next $15,000.00 149r and on the next $5,000.00 16-. These rates are effective for the calendar year 1939 and for fiscal years beginning or ending in 1939. What Exemptions are Allowed ,1 Corporations? ;v f No exemptions are allowed cor porations, but v; certain credits are provided, among them: Dmdends re ceived 'frotn. a domestic corporation which is subject W taxation; fas de fined in the; reflations. The Amount allowed is 85$ of the dividends re ceived, 'but jwi.jn excess o?85 of the adjusteC'Set income; "' ;y Wfcat is JMtent by "Adjusted Net -m;; .' J. Income?'' ,- Adjusted nkt'iiicome is the net in come, jwhich: means, in a broad, sense, "AH wealth frhfch; flows in ito the taxpayer; other than as a return of Capital," minus a credit for interest received on certain obligations of the United ''States and its 'instrumentali ties'. , . t An example based on the forego ing answers follows : . ; j The A Corporation (domestic) has an income - of $20,000.00. fox- the cal endar year 1939, including $5,000.00 interest on certain obligations of the United States and dividends of the class allowable as a credit (above referred -to) of $2,500.00. The tax is computed as follows: Total Net Income $20,000.00 Less Interest on United States obligations 5,000.00 Adjusted Net Income 15,000.00 Deduct Credit for divi dend received (85 of $2,500.00) . 2,125.00 i275.00j' OZ5.00 990.50 .,,!, .

Hertford Mm Is Store Of Many Known Trade Names Serves Large Territory; Third In a Series of "Reviewing Hertford Businesses'9 You cannot enter the roomy store of Hertford Hardware and Supply Company without seeing at a glance scores of nationally-advertised trade names. These names you recognize immediately as belonging to sport ing goods, paints, carpenter's tools, electric refrigerators, stoves, in fact, anything from nuts and bolts to out board motors and horse collars. The hardware store is one of the town's older establishments, being organized several years ago. It caters in a large degree to the sec tion's builders arid contractors, al though another large group of regu lar customers are farmers of the huge north Albemarle agricultural area. The store's owner and manager is the well-known Sheriff J. Emmett Winslow. H. A. "Whit" Whitley, connected with the store as buyer and assistant manager for 15 years, has as his aides, Julian Powell and Kermit Kirby. All three men have much experience in dealing with the needs of a building and agricultural people. Sammie Sutton is the firm's bookkeeper, and as his assistant has Miss Blanche Davenport. Where the stores' extensive stock varies from the bounds of strict hardware merchandise, it includes building material, cooking utensils, wood, oil and electric stoves, paints, radios and sporting goods. For the convenience of active sportsmen, Mr. Whitley, an angler d.e luxe himself, dispenses hunting and fishing li censes.
