I Despite the npmber of different laws, in the various states, that re-v quire .motorists to carry insurance or' providing stiff penalties against those who do not, in most of the states in the nion, irresponsible motorists are still causing heavy human and physical damage, with- Lout having to compensate for. their acts. " Snee most rtiotorists drive through a number of states qver' a period of time," the problem 'is 3I-, most a national' one. Although the effort to require motorists to car ry' insurance Js .supported '. by 1 a largfl and growing number 'of peo ple, he various' states .have not yet come up with' this solution and, therefore, the .highways' are filled with irresponsible drivers, who do not have the financial .means to compensate for.the destruction they may. at any time cause. .. ,v This is' a problem which should be solved because it can be solved. If the various Jtate legislatures 'do not wish to pass laws requiring motorists to carry insurance,, .then they should pass some sort of law! which would protect the victims of j the irresponsible motorists.

" Among 5tKispitifulrempant was- ' nemaps - the strongest man wno lived ;in Jerusalem at that time 'the prophet Jeremiah God's man. Xeremfah had been given the choice "of going "with "the' captivies.'or re maining amid the ruins in. Jeru salem and he chose to remain with the remnant of the people.-.' Realizing their dire' plight and their need for help, the people, un der their chosen leaders, 'Jbhanan,' the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah, the son of Hoshaiah, gathered be fore Jeremiah... In their extremity, they pledged allegiance to Jehovah, promising to obey him in all things. Their pledge is worth reviewing: they declared, "The Lord be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according ; to all things for the which the Lord thy God shall send thee tous- 'Wheth er !it bejEoqd.-or whether it pe evil, We will obey the voice oi yie ijoro our ""God, to" whom we send thee! that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the Lord our God."" And so Jeremiah took their plea for help to God for the people. . Af-. ter .a .wait of ten days, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah and he relayed it to the people.' The Lord said, "If ye will .still abide in this' land, then will 1 build- you,' and not pull you down, and I will plant "you, and not pluck you up: for I repent me of the evil that. I have done unto yota ,", . O ye remnant-of Judah: Go ye not into Egypt; know certainly that I have admonished you this day." Even though the people had sin ned and had to be punished for their evil ways, God still loved them and wanted to'.take care of them If only they would, let him. He told the small, . frightened, homeless band of people to just stay where they were ,-and trust ui him and he would take care "of them, restore" their city and help them to make it strong again-for after all they still were his chosen people. . -.Yet, after God's will was jnade, knovjrn to themj' these people refus ed to obey him. They insisted on koing down to Egypt, where, they, 'th'oughCfbod Would be more plenti ful and life .easier for them, t, lhe prophet Jeremiah warned , vehem ently against this and-they accus ed -him of Jying to th'em-rof dis-; totting-the message of God to 'them.
