Pride-Exodus 5:1-4


Mt. Lake Park Ev. U. B. Church
Pride-Exodus STA
Il wouldn't give a nickel for one
who has no pride" Familiar words
heard by most of us somewhere
along life's way. Yet, have you
ever stopped to consider how
pride has cost us iii heartachc,
misery, and even financial loss?
An Egyptian ruler by the name
of Pharoah had too much pride to
confess to lowly herdsman that
there was anyone who could know
more than he. Befor" God was
through with this king he and his
people suffered financial loss,
physical discomfort, aud finally
the loss of loved ones TO death.
Why? Because he had too much
pride to admit he could ever be
wrong. The Bible says, Pride goeth
before fall" Individuals and ma
tons have always found this true.
From Pharaoh who SAID he knew
not this Lord" to Nazi Germany's
super race man has found no ma
ton to be infallible. From Thomas
Paine's Age of Reason" to Karl
Marks Religion is the opiate of
the people" man has sought to
discount the revealed word OF
God. Today our chief fear to be
an inferiority complex rather than
to escape the judgment of God
by crying out Lord have mercy on
me a. sinner"
Listening to radio broadcast the
other day preacher said, while
peace conferences are all right
what is needed is for all nations to
have a peace conference with the
Prince of Peace" How true that
may also be with individuals The
psychiatrist and tranquilizers may
do much to help us but Christ, the
Prince of Peace, is able to eliml-
nate the cause of the trouble for IF
we confess our sins he is faithful
and Just to forgive" we read from
the Word of God.
As far as Pharaoh was concerned
he had no sins nor confessing to do.
His troubles were all tire fault of
Moses and the Isracli;es. Even
when he decided to let them go
he did so with the thought OF
self-prescrvation, not repentance
in mind. Still too much pride to
admit he had been wrong. While
pharaoh might have had pride in
his throne and even pride il per-
sonal habits he needed pride III
spiritual attainment. May this be
our prayer: o God help me to have
enough pride to take proper care
of my physical body which others
see but also enough prid" to take
proper care of my spiritual body
which only you see.

Caldwell Officials Paid
More Than Woodsfield

An appropriation ordinance
calling for $279,000 village oper-
ating expenses has been passed
by the council in neighboring
Woodsfield, Monroe county.
Council also approved a new
salary schedule for officials, be-
ginning with the next term.
The mayor of the village will
receive $1,000, double the former
figure and the village clerk will
receive a similar salary of $1,000.
In a comparison with Cald-
well, which is considerably
smaller than Woodsfield, the
salary of the mayor is little
bit higher here than in Woods
field.
But the salary of the village
clerk here is almost double that
received in Woodsfield.
A veteran of World War ii or
a Korean veteran has never held
this particular job.

go into operation in 1859 and
which will affect the history
credit to be used in determining
future wheat allotments on
farms on which the wheat allot-
ment is exceeded.
The new law does not affect
the determination of allotments
for farms on which the wheat
acreage is within the farm allot-
ment. AS in the past, farms on
which the wheat allotment is not
exceeded will get full credit for
the allotment plus the acreage
held out of wheat production
under the allotment program, in
the determination of future
allotments for those farms.
Chairman Dennis gave the fol-
lowing explanation of the effect
that over-producing the farm
wheat allotment would have in
several different situations:
Producers on farms on which
the wheat acreage allotment is
exceeded and on which there is
a farm marketing excess of
wheat have two choices:
(a) Pay the marketing quota
penalty and receive wheat acre
age history credit for the farm
equal only to the wheat acreage
allotment for the farm.
(b) Deliver the farm market
ing excess of wheat to the Sec
retary of Agriculture or store it
on the farm under bond or in a
commercial warehouse. The
warehouse receipt must be de-
posted with the county ASC
office. If this is done, the farm
will receive acreage history
credit for that year equal to the
wheat allotment plus any acre
age considered as having been
taken out of wheat production,
which will be the difference be-
tween the allotment and the base
for that year. The acreage credit
in this case is the same as though
the wheat allotment had not been
exceeded. However, the acreage
credit will be lost if the stored
wheat is later depleted under
such circumstances as to make
the producer liable for the mar
ketlng quota penalty.
Farms on which the wheat
acreage allotment is exceeded
but there is no farm marketing
excess of wheat will be credited
with only the wheat allotment
acreage for that year in deter
mining future wheat allotments
for the farm. Such case-where
the farm wheat allotment may be
exceeded but there is no farm
marketing excess of wheat on
the farm-may occur because:
(a) The total wheat acreage
on the farm is Is acres or less;
(b) The normal production of
the acreage planted to wheat is
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1959-01-29

less than 5000 bushels;
(c) The yield per acre was so
low that the total wheat produc-
ton was less than the normal
production of the farms wheat
acreage allotment and applica-
ton for the downward adjust
ment was made to the county
committee in accordance with
regulations; or
(d) The farm has been ap-
proved for the production of up
to 80 acres of wheat for use on
the farm under the feed wheat
program.
