TINE FOR ACTION
I'm the Oxford LEDGER

North Carolinians, particularly
members of the General Assembly
sitting now in Raleigh, have been
given lifting information on
the gambling tie-up that has been
given root in this state.
The information came in a Sc
ries of articles prepared by Jim
Cheney, asstaff member, and print
ed in the Raleigh News & Observ-
er. His was one of the most thor
ough jobs of reporting that has
come to our attention in North
Carolina in many day.
Mr.. Cheney dug far and wide for
his facts and he brought them out
in crystal-clear form. These facts
show the positive tie-up that ex-
lists between gambling racketeers
in distant places: Florida, Ohio,
Virginia, West Virginia and North
Carolina.
this syndicate has gotten a hand
into politics in North Carolina,
Not the least evil is the fact that
particularly at the county level;
and from the county level, at the
state level through the enactment
of local bills which make possible
the operation of dog racing in
Carteret and Currituck Counties.
North Carolina has everything
to lose and nothing to gain by per-
hitting dog racing. 1t is doubly
dangerous to the state so long as
it is permitted to operate under
the guidance of figures with a
shady past and doubtful pres
ent.
Carteret County is getting some
of the proceeds, as is Morehead
City, and Currituck County We'll
fare Department is sharing some
of the earnings" from the racing
concession in that county. But
North Carolina is losing its moral
ity; its good judgment and its po-
litical virtue so long as it tolerates
this nefarious business to exist.
These things ought not to be
sold at the cashiers windows
along the dog race track. The 1851
Legislature ought to undo without
hesitation the wrong that has been
perpetrated upon North Carolina.

AND SEVEN DIED
(The Burlington Daily
Times-News)

Harold Ray Hinton, 81, who
lived on Clayton, route 2, stopped
at service station near Zebulon
one night this week. He was driv-
ing his new 1851 model car. He
was justly proud of his motor We
hicle.
He told a station attendant:
"She1l go up to 100 miles an hour
in 80 seconds" That's better than
the average pickup for an auto
mobile. It's almost equal to the
burst of jet propelled velocity.
Harold didn't quite make it on
the test run a few moments later.
He made a try for it. He spun
the speed indicator around quickly
to 80 miles an hour. 1t was turn
ing on to do what he said it would
do. Then!
With Harold enjoying ride in
his new car were four of his
friends. Maybe all were care-free,
eager to hear Harold say, "Look,
fellows! Didn't l tell you she
would do it," Perhaps on the
other hand one or more did feel
a little uneasiness. But Harold
was in the drivers seat. He was
in command. 1t might have APP
peared ungrateful for the spin if
one had suggested: Harold, amt
you stepping on it a little too
hard? Don't you think you'd bet
ter ease up on the gas little 2"
A headlamp appeared out front.
Harold Hinton must have seen it.
He'd make the pass all right! But
he didn't. He was off center of
the highway on the wrong side
when something happened. He
never knew what. There was a
head-on crash. Harold Hinton was
dead. His four companions were
dead. Two innocent passengers in
the vehicle he collided with were
dead. Seven in all! Harold Hinton
had made a heavy chalk mark in
black on the highway scoreboard
of reckless self-sacrifice, speed
and its attendant slaughter.
"They took off like a hurri-
cane" again commented the curb
hop, "with Hinton at the wheel"
Berdon Eddins was getting out
his car at his home on highway
"a a mile east Of Zebulon-
81 saw headlights coming to-
ward each other about 500 yards
away. They were sweeping around
a bend and then suddenly they
went out. There was big noise
ringing like"
The tragic story of Harold Hin
ton is sad enough with the loss
of his own life in the act of "show-
ing off" the power of his new car.
1t becomes an added story of grief
with the loss of six others for
whose untimely death he was res
ponsible.
"She1l go up to 100 miles an
hour in 80 seconds -"
She might have done had she
not at 80 miles an hour exploded
in a split second seven men into
eternity.

What do you suppose the bridge
owners would think was proper
toll?
Can we expect to make the
coastland attractive to visitors by
advertising that we have couple
of nice toll bridges they can pay
their way across to visit us?
Toll bridges ought to start a
business boom among enterprising
boatmen. There'd be opportunity
for starting a couple of nice little
ferry businesses-and that'd float
us back twenty-five years the day
they took to the water.
This years Assemblymen, we
understand, are the highest paid
in the states history. How do you
suppose this particularly willy set
of nest-featherers missed the OPP
portunity of making their pay
hike retroactive to the year the
most experienced Of their number
first went down to Raleigh to rep
resent the people?
One more question about the
Assembly--does it meet only once
in two years in order to give the
tax-gatherers a year to catch up
with them and the people year
to forget even better reasons for
catching up with 'em?

Being born again delivers us from
the guilt and penalty of sin which
is the first requisite in being saw

as our Guide and Keeper is equally
as important. so that we might be
delivered from the POWER of sin
and have that blessed assurance OF
being finally delivered from the

Jones, our father in the Gospel was
inspired to write the song titled
Receive the Holy Ghost which

Have Ye Received The Holy

Acts 1872
BY Sister Willie Gordon
Gods Word is very explicit on
everything which pertains to our
lives here and hereafter. The Spirit
of God never leaves us in doubt
as to the correct answer to every
Bible question. This very significant
question which we find in the
book of the Acts of the Apostles
must not be overlooked or lightly
considered by those who expect to
see Jesus some day to dwell with
Him forevermore.
| have experienced two definite
works of Grace, the new birth and
the reception of the Holy Spirit.
Every believer must receive the
Holy Ghost if he or she is to main
tain a fruitful spiritual life for we
can not grow in grace and in the
knowledge of the Lord. unless we al
low the Spirit Of God to indwell
us and empower us for service.
The Bible plainly states that the
reception of the Holy Ghost is in
despensible if we would be the chill
dren of God
AS many as are led by the Spirit
of God, they are the sons of God.
AS the third person in the trinity
of the God head, the Holy Spirit
uses the word of God to bring con-
viction upon an unbeliever, where
by he becomes Cody sorry and
repents and becomes born again.
Jesus promised to send the Holy
Spirit as our comforter, ST. John

lieve and are baptized as command
