THURSDAY, APRIL 27-WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1989

JOYFUL EVENT AT ST. GABRIEL TS CATHOLIC SCHOOL . . . Shown are Greenville Police

Officers: Ward, left and Sharpe, right, taking fingerprints of local children in the event they
are lost or abducted. This was part of an all-day fun-filled fund raising day at St. Gabriel Ts.

The next day I couldn Tt wait un-
til lunch time so I could see this
beautiful woman again so just as
soon as my lunch hour came, I
took off for her house. I got there
about ten minutes later and
waited a few seconds before I
knocked on the door. She must
have been looking for me because
the door was already half open
and she was standing nearby
drinking what looked like a Coca-
Cola. I dropped my hand because
I was so surprised to see her stan-
ding there as if she was waiting
for me to touch her.

~Come and have a seat and I
will get you something cold to
drink. What would you like to
have? ? I said that I would just
like some ice water. So she
brought me the water and a sand-
wich and a slice of pice. After I
had finished we sat there for a
few minutes before she asked me
if I ever got lonesome and I told
her that I did, but I told her she

had no reason to be lonesome
because she was married. She

lonesome during the day but she
was alright during the night.
Then she told me that she need-
ed someone just to talk to during
the day. So I asked her why didn Tt
she work and she told me that her
husband didn Tt want her to work.
Then she asked me if I was her
husband would I let her work and
I told her it would be left up to
her. I should have known the
reason that her husband wanted
her to stay at home because he
was afraid of losing her. After I
had been there a while she final-
ly asked me something that I
didn Tt think that she had on her
mind. I didn Tt answer her
because I had never had a mar-
ried woman to ask me such
serious questions and I was get-
ting uneasy so I wouldn Tt say
anything. I just stood there and

then toldme that T she was.

waited for her next move because
I knew she had something in
mind judging from the way she

was talking.

Then we got quiet for a few
minutes, then she finally said
something that made me feel
very uncomfortable, and I tried.
to act as if I wasn Tt afraid but she

knew that I was about to run out
the door. I knew I had to be at
work by 1:00 and it was just about
time for me to be heading that
way so that I could be there by
1:00. I turned to leave but she
came around me and stood in the
doorway so that I had to squeeze
by to get out. I asked her to wait
until the next day and I would
stay a little longer. So I left and

headed back to the drug store

with a lot of things on my mind.
I didn Tt have a trip for the rest
of the day so all I did was sit

around and think. I just felt that {

I was too young to get involved

Effective April 29, all motor
vehicles sold in North Carolina
must be accompanied by an
Odometer Disclosure Statement
signed by both seller and buyer
showing the vehicle Ts recorded
mileage and certifying whether
the mileage displayed on the
odometer is or is not the vehicle Ts
actual mileage. Vehicle models
that are 10 years old or older and
those having a gross vehicle
weight rating of more than 16,000
pounds are exempt from the new
federal law.

Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles William S. Hiatt today
said that the law is intended to
the possibility of
odometer fraud by establishing a
mechanical mileage record that
can be traced to a vehicle Ts
original sale when it was new.

oOne of the fears purchasers
have of buying a used vehicle
from someone they do not know

personally is that the odometer
may have been disconnected or
altered to show fewer miles,
thereby increasing its sale value.
The Truth in Mileage Act will
help protect consumers, ? T Hiatt
said.

The commissioner added that
vehicles purchased without the
required Odometer Disclosure
Statement signed by the seller
and the buyer will not be
registered or issued a title in
North Carolina by the Division of
Motor Vehicles. Odometer

Disclosure Statements that have
been altered will not be accepted.
In addition, any title on which the
mileage has been altered will re-
quire the title to branded oNot
Actual Mileage, ? regardless of
the vehicle Ts age.

Copies of the Odometer
Disclosure Statement (Form
MVR-180) may be obtained from
any Division of Motor Vehicles

Contract License Plate Agency.
Hiatt said the Odometer
Disclosure Statement must in-
clude the following information:
1. Current odometer reading
(no tenths).

2. An indication whether the
odometer reading reflects actual
mileage or is not actual mileage,
or that the mileage is in excess of
the mechanical limits of the
odometer.

3. The signature and printed
name and address of the
seller(s).

4. The signature and printed
name and address of the
buyer(s). Any vehicle that has
been registered and titled in joint
ownership will require the
signatures of both owners on the
disclosure statement.

TEACHERS

There are a few teachers who
really stand out in my mind who
really encouraged me and helped
me and were real role models.
Have you any?

Teachers are such an impor-
tant part of each child Ts life, and
their influence can last a lifetime.

All schools should begin in
the early grades to teach their
children to feel good about
themselves "to have self-esteem,
to set goals and dreams, to make
each student feel special, and to
try and somehow let them know
that those dreams can come true.

What is a good school? A good
school is a school with good

teach you how to get it. John

kept me on the right track. A
team of very special people
helped me learn that horizons are
where you place them. ?

A role model doesn Tt have to be
an athlete. It can be a brother, a
father, a neighbor, a
businessman, a teacher. The
main thing is to be a leader.

Parents are their children Ts
best role models.

WHAT DOES A PASTOR DO?

The pastor teaches, though he
must solicit his own classes. He
heals, though without pills or
knife. He is something a lawyer,
often a social worker, something
of an editor, a bit of a philosopher
and entertainer, a salesman, a
decorative piece for public func-
tions, and he is supposed to be a
scholar. He visits the sick, mar-
ries people, buries the dead,
labors to console those who sor-
row and admonish those who sin,
and tries to stay sweet when chid-
ed for not doing his duty. He plans
programs, appoints committees
when he can ge them; spends
considerable time in keeping peo-
ple out of each other Ts hair, bet-
ween times he prepares a sermon
and preaches it on Sunday to
those who don Tt happen to have
any other engagement. Then on
Monday he smiles when some
jovial chap roars, what a job "
one day a week!

WHERE TO LOOK
If you are facing a crisis, read
the 46th Psalm.
When you are discouraged,
think over Psalms 23 and 24.
When you are lonely or fear-

ful, read over Psalm 27.

When you plan your budget,
read St. Luke Ts Gospel, chapter
19.

To live successfully with your
fellowmen, follow Romans,
chapter 12,

If you are sick or in pain, read
Psalm 91.

When everything seems to be
going from bad to worse, try 2
Tim. 3.

When your friends seem to go
back on you, hold fast to Cor. 13.

For an inward peace, consider
the 14th chapter of St. John.

If you have been bereaved,
there is a message for you in 1
Corinthians 15 and Revelation 21.

For a stirring record of what
trust in God can do, turn to the
11th chapter of Hebrews.

If you have to put up a stiff
fight, there is a fine equipment
listed at the end of Ephesians.

When you have sinned, read 1
John 1, John 3:1-21, and make
Psalm your prayer.

The way of prayer "Psalms 19
and 51; St. Lukes Ts Gospel,
chapters 11:1-13; 18:1-14; St.
John Ts Gospel, chapter 17; Ephe-
sians 3.

If you have fear of death, read
St. John, chapters 11, 17, and 20;
2 Cor., chapters 4,5; Romans,
chapter 8.

mountain, but there in the sand-
pile at Sunday school. These are
the things I learned.

Share everything, play fair,
don Tt hit people, put things back
where you found them, clean up
your own mess, don Tt take things
that aren Tt yours, say youre
sorry when you hurt somebody,
wash your hands before you eat,
flush, warm cookies and cold
mild are good for you, live a
balanced life "learn some and
think some and draw and paint
and sing and dance and play into
the world, take a nap every after-
noon, when you go out into the
world, watch out for traffic, hold
hands and stick together. Be
aware of wonder. Remember the
little seed in the Styrofoam cup:
The roots go down and the plant
goes up and nobody really knows
how or why, but we are like that.
Goldfish and hamsters and white
ice and even the little seed in the
Styrofoam cup "they all die. So
do we. And then remember the
Dick and Jane books and the first
word you learned "the biggest
word of all-LOOK.

Everything you need to know is
in there somewhere. The Golden
Rule and love and basic sanita-
tion. Ecology and politics and
equality and sane living.

Take any one of those items
and extrapolate it into
sophisticated adult terms and
apply it to your family life or your
work of your government or your
world and it kholds true and clear
and firm. Think what a better
world it would be if we all "the
whole world "had cookies and
milk about three o Tclock every
afternoon and then lay down with
our blankets for a nap. Or if all
governments have a basic policy
to always put things back where
they found them and to clean up
their own mess.

And it is still true, no matter
how old you are "when you go out
into the world, it is best to hold
hands and stick together.

Robert Fulghum ends this book
with these words: ~ ~If ever there
is truly peace on earth, goodwill
to men, it will be because of
women like Mother Teresa.
Peace is not something you wish
for; it Ts something you make,
something you do, something you
are, and something you give
away. ?

This book concerns uncommon
thoughts on common things. It is
a new book, copyrighted 1988 and
it is Carver and Sheppard
Libraries. READ IT. oIf you
don Tt use your brains, you Tll lose
them. ?

oCount your blessings, for life
is a psalm. The world is good and
it is growing even better. ?

with a married woman. After I

got off that night I stopped by a 2

iend of mine and we sat around
and talked until about 10:00, then
I went home and went to bed. The
next day I got up and rushed
down to the drug store hoping
that I wouldn Tt have to go to that
same house again. I had quite a
few trips but most of them was in
a different part of town, but I still
couldn Tt help from thinking about
that beautiful woman.
I got off that night and decided

to stop by a friend of mine to see
if we could plan something for the

weekend because it was Labor
Day. So we decided that we would

go to little Washington to Peals
Landing. The next day was my
last day for the weeks. I got my
pay and headed home. Since |
was about to have some time off
and about to become 18 years old
I decided to get with a couple of
my friends and do a little
celebrating so we got with some
girls that we knew and decided to
go to the movies that Saturday
night. My friend and I bought out-
fits to wear and Saturday finally
came so we went and picked up
our friends and took off for the
movies. We went and had a
wonderful time and when the
movie was out we decided to go
to the Busy Bee Cafe and get
something to eat.

We had something to eat and
played some records on the
jukebox and about that time it
was time for us to take the girls
home. We had gone about a block
when we heard a woman yelling
for someone to help her, so so-
meone ran across the street and
called the police. The police ar-
rived and asked what was going
on and nobody said anything so
he asked the lady who was being
beaten by her husband and she
pointed to her husband and for
him to ask him. The policeman
asked what the trouble was and
he said that nothing was wrong
and that he and his wife were just
having a misunderstanding. The
police then asked him what kind
of misunderstanding and he told
the police that it was between
him and his wife. Well, we called
to see what was going on and
somebody is going to tell us what
happened. He then walked over to
his wife and asked her why was
her nose bleeding and she said
her husband made it bleed. The
police walked over to her hus-
band and asked him if he hit her
and he said no, that he was just
trying to make her go home.
Then the police told him that
somebody was lying and I want
the truth or I will have to take you
both to jail. Now both of you come
here and tell me the truth. The
man said that he had already told
him the truth and that was all
that he could do. The police then
told him to get into the car
because he was arresting him for
assault on a female. When the
police came over to him and put
him in the car, he took him by the
arm and pushed him toward the
car when the man turned and
raised his hand as if he was go-
ing to hit the policeman; that Ts
when the policeman hit him and
knocked him down. When he got
up he reached for the policeman
as if he was going to grab him,
but the policeman pushed him

God. As a result you miss signs : S-DRUMS, THIGHS, & WINGS

of God or interpret them to suit
your own benefit. The road of the
impatient leads to destruction.
Soon you begin to ignore God's

signs, altogether. Then hatred of
Godly things increases because
they call you to a life of submis-

want to submit. You want to do as
you please for your own worldly
reasons. You exercise your free
will. You must make your own
choice.

THURSDAY, APRIL 27-WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1989-THE ~M T VOICE

Parents are the best role,
models for successful school at-
tendance and achievement for
their children. Basic self-esteem
taught at home will help to set the
stage for school success. Even
teenagers need guidance and sup-
port for continued academic
success.

Healthy doses of genuine praise
are an excellent starting point for
positive self-esteem. Remember
to praise the good things your
child does "regardless of your
child Ts age. Many parents
assume that older children do not
need the praise that is so readily
given to very young children.
Don Tt assume that the child
knows that you are proud. Say it!
Experts tell us that a good rule of
thumb is five positive comments
for each negative one. Even
negative behavior should be ap-
proached in a positive way.

Parents T attitudes toward lear-
ning and school attendance make
strong, lasting impressions on
our children. Help your child
learn through your actions that
education and school involve-
ment are important. A positive
attitude toward notices from
school or those extra school
related projects will help set the
stage. Attend open houses and
parent/teacher conferences. Act
as a school volunteer whenever
possible. Even older children
take pride in seeing their parents
involved in school activities.
Limit absences from school. Let-
ting your child miss school for
vacations and shopping trips
should be discouraged. Schedule
medical appointments im-

African Art Show (continued from page 1)

mediately after school hours.
These actions let your child know
how important regular atten-
dance is.

Realize that each child Ts
ability is different. Don Tt com-
pare one child with another,
especially children who are ob-
viously having learning pro-
blems. Such comparisons can be
cruel and can instill a self-
defeating attitude in the child.
Encourage your child to do his
personal best. It is important to
remember that personal best
does not necessarily mean being
perfect or making high grades.
Give your child the freedom to
make some mistakes and to learn
from them. The other extreme,
however, is making excuses for
your child Ts failures. Excuses for
failure mayu afford your child
unnecessary crutches. Readily
available crutches can stifle
creativity. Make sure through
teachers and your involvement
that your child is actually doing
his/her personal best.

Know your child Ts teachers.
Let them know you are interested
and supportive of your child.
Teachers need to hear from you,
but they will resent abeing being
bullied. When your child Ts
behavior at home declines, most
often there are behavior changes
at school too. Call the teachers if
you have concerns. Ask about
special services such as social
workers and guidance
counselors. Help your teenager
plan for college by visiting the
guidance or career counselor
with him/her.

Islam In Focus

(Continued from page 5)
TRUTH, ABOUT WHICH THEY
(VAINLY) DISPUTE. IT IS NOT
BEFITTING TO (THE MAJESTY
OF) GOD THAT HE SHOULD
BEGET A SON, GLORY BE TO
HIM! WHEN HE DETERMINES A
MATTER, HE ONLY SAYS TOIT,
oBE ?, AND IT IS. Holy Quran 19:
16-35

Jesus was a servant of God. His
birth was miraculous, and his life
was holy. Each day of his life was
spent in submission to God.
Jesus Ts gospel, teaches us to sub-
mit to the will of God. He teaches
in parables, and performs
miracles by God Ts permission.
He leaves no doubt as to who he
was, and why he. was.
Throughout his life he was a
devout Jew. He stayed close to
the temple, he observed all of the
Jewish holidays, he followed the
Jewish law, he did not eat
anything forbidden. He even
taught that he did not come to
change the law but fulfill it. The
first Christians were Jews. They
believed Christ was sent from
God. They worked hard to follow
him and be like him. They stayed
close to the temple, and they
followed the law. How then did
this world become so confused?
Think about it, if you love Truth.

This Way For Black Empowerment-- Blacks and Jews

BY: LENORA FULANI

Earlier this month the New
Jewish Agenda, which defines
itself as an organization of pro-
gressive Jews, initiated expulsion
proceedings against 18 of their
members who also belong to the
New Alliance Party. In a letter
they wrote to each person
threatened with expulsion, NJA Ts
national co-chairs charged that
NAP Ts ~anti-Semitic record is
consistent over time...

~Although NAP frames its anti-
Semitic remarks in the context of
an anti-nationalist position, NAP
is clearly not anti-nationalist, for
it supports without criticism the
nationalism of Louis Farrakhan,
who also. preaches _anti-
Semitism. ?

As the chairperson of the New
Alliance Party, I wrote to protest
the proposed expulsion of Jewish
members of NAP who were also
members of NJA. This is part of
what my letter said:

~What ~crimes T have those
Jewish sisters and brothers com-
mitted to so outrage the NJA in-
quisitors as to precipitate a call
for their expulsion? Beneath all
the specific accusations, there is
really only one charge of
substance "they are actively in-

volved in the Black-led, indepen-

my dent New Alliance Party.

oI have never been thrown out

_ of any Black organization nor

threatened with expulsion for
working closely with Jews. That
is because the African-American
community is willing to work in
broad, progressive non-partisan
coalitions. But the establishment
liberal Jewish leadership has
proven that its loyalties are to the
Democratic Party, and only to

| the Democratic Party.

~ o ~No doubt much of your objec-
tion to the New Alliance Party
stems from my support of and
from Minister Louis Farrakhan.

_ Again and again I have made
. clear that I have certain dif-

ferences with Minister Far-
rakhan. But I have also pointed
out that he is supported and
respected no only by me, but by
many in the African-American
community. While I have dif-
ferences with him, I am not will-
ing to reject him. That you are
willing to do so-is a repudiation
not just of Minister Farrakhan
but of the millions of Black
people "Muslim and _ non-
Muslim "who follow him and
respect him. The African-
American community is
justifiably resentful of your
actions.

oLiberal and progressive Jews
must learn that the Black com-
munity will not be dictated to; we
will choose our own leaders, and
determine our own agenda, and
whether you like it or not you will
have to respect it. ?

On April 8 the national steering
committee of the NJA held expul-
sion hearing in New York City.
The Jewish members of NAP
who were about to be expelled
had been told that they or a
representative could appear at
the hearing to speak "for a max-
imum of four minutes each "in
their defense. Since the real issue
was not NAP Ts ~ ~anti-Semitism ? T
but NJA Ts racism, each of the 18
Jewish sisters and brothers chose
to be represented by an African-

American friend of colleague.

Only one person at a time was
allowed into the basement of the
small synagogue in Greenwich
Village where the hearing took
place. None of the ~ ~accused ? T
were permitted to be present. In
some cases their Black represen-
tatives were asked questions; in
others the steering committee
members sat in stony silence
while Black lawyers, teachers,
and community leaders express-
ed their outrage at the crime that
was being perpetrated by so-
called progressive Jews in
repudiating other Jews for the
crime of following independent
Black leadership.

Within a few days, the NJA
steering committee had made its
decision. Unmoved "unwilling
and unable to learn anything
from the African-Americans who
had something important to
teach them about racism and
anti-Semitism "they decided to
expel those of their members who
also belong to NAP. In a letter
dated April 11, the steering com-
mittee Ts national co-chairs an-
nounced their ~ ~final solution T T to
the NAP problem in a letter sent
to each Jewish member of NAP
they were expelling: ~ ~...your ac-
tions...caused serious damage to
the Manhattan NJA chapter and
the national organization. ?

NAP Ts Jewish members are
giving expression to the real pro-
gressive sentiment in the interna-

tional Jewish community, which
the Zionists, the phony-

progressive apologists for
Zionism like NJA and their
patrons in the Democratic Party
want to pretend doesn Tt exist. The
NJA is seeking to intimidate ge-
nuine Jewish progressivism into
silence and inaction by accusing
those who speak out of being
o ~traitors T T "not oreal ? Jews, not
~ ~good ? T Jews. It is, tragically, not
the first time that progressive
Jews have been betrayed in this
way.

The NJA now stands fully
revealed in all its racist ar-
rogance; it is ready to punish and
repudiate other Jews for the
crime of followig Black leader-
ship in building and leading a pro-
Socialist, anti-Zionist and anti-
imperialist third party in
America. This supposedly pro-
gressive Jewish organization has
shown itself to be nothing more
than a front for the racist, anti-
Semitic and anti-progressive
Democratic Party. They have
brought shame to the progressive
movement which Jews all over
the world have helped to lead and
build.

I am deeply, deeply proud of
NAP Ts Jewish leaders and
builders "if the leaders of NJA
were not blinded by their racism,
they would be also.
