Do you find if difficult to
“get along” with some
people? Are there those that
hate you and seem deter-
mined to hurt you all they
can? What can you do?
Christ said, “Love your
enemies...Pray for
them...Father forgive them;
for they know not what they
do...Be not overcome of evil,
but overcome evil with
good.” (Matthew 5:44; Luke
23:24; Romans 12:21). Such
dealings will not always
make friends of our enemies
for even the Lord had those
who hated Him. But Jesus
tells us to love, forgive, and
pray for them - not for their
sakes, but for ours! No
enemy can do us real harm if
our heart is right with God.
Christ is the answer.
How shall we deal with
friends, neighbors, co-
workers, business contacts?
Christ answers: “All things
whatsoever ye would that
men should do to you, do ye
even so to them...Be thou an
example of the believers, in
word, in conversation, in
charity, in spirit, in faith, in
purity...Ye are the salt of
the earth,..Ye are the light
of the world...Let youi light
so shine before men, that
they may see your good
works, and glorify your
Father which is in heaven.”
(Matthew 7:12; I Timothy
4:12; Matthew 5:13-16).
When Jesus was asked by a
lawyer for the first com-
mandment, He replied,
“Love God...and the second:
Love thy neighbor as thy-
self.” (Mark 12:30-31). He
told the disciples, “A new
commandment I give unto
you, That ye love one
another; as I have loved you.
(John 13:34). In I John4:8,
“He that loveth not,
knoweth not God; for God is
love.” Anyone can love
those that love him
(Matthew 5:46-47), but
“Christ died for the ungodly
...God commendeth his love
toward us, in that, while we
were yet sinners, Christ died
for us.” (Romans 5:6-8).
When we are in difficult
straits, and called upon to
“love the unlovely and the
unloveable, Christ is the
answer. He showed us the
pattern. It is the only way
we can “Live peaceably with
all men.”

Learn About Your Gold, Silver
Before You Decide to Sell
Wiley Seeks Re-election
AUS I 1 N —Prospects of
cashing in on the boom in
precious metals may have you
thinking about selling off that
gold bullion that Uncle Fred
willed you or unloading that
tacky silver brooch Aunt
Sally gave you for graduation.
II so. a little advance
knowledge about the pricing
of gold and silver can go a
long way toward helping you
determine the potential value
of your cache.
“One of the major misun-
derstandings people have
about the current gold and
silver market concerns the
ounce used in quoting
precious metals prices."
explained A g r i c u 11 u e
Commissioner Reagan V.
Brown.
The Commissioner noted
that the Texas Department of
Agriculture (TDA), which has
the responsibility lorchecking
and certifying the accuracy of
all scales in the state, has
recently been receiving
consumer calls concerning
gold and silver weights.
“You have to remember.”
Brown said, “that gold and
silver are weighed by the troy
ounce, a measurement which
is less than the standard
avoirdupois ounce, 16 of
which we use to make a
pound. Instead, there are
14.583 troy ounces in an
American pound.”
At the same time, the value
of your gold or silver also
depends on the quality, or
amount, of pure metal in the
item.
Gold or silver bullion is
pure, uncoined metal in bars
or ingots while gold and silver
coins have had other metals
added to give strength to the
material. The amount of other
metals in a particular coin
depends on when and where
the coin was minted and can
best be determined with the
assistance of a well-versed
coin dealer.
Gold and silver jewelry is
rarely made from pure
material, particularly in this
country, because the addition
of other metals is desirable to
give the item added strength.
Quality of gold is measured in
carats, with 24-carat gold
referring to pure gold. A
common quality of gold
jewelry manufactured in the
U. S. is 12-carat gold, which
means that the item contains
50 percent pure gold.
Quality of silver is
designated by the term
firiehess: Sterling silver, for
example, contains 92.5
percent pure silver and is said
to have a fineness of 925.
Rotary Club
To Hold
Charter Banquet
The Hurrican Creek Rotary
Club of Anna, Howe and
Van Alstyne will hold its
charter banquet Friday, Feb.
29, at the Sid Richardson
Center at Austin College in
Sherman.
Special guest speaker will
be Dr. Norman Vincent
Peale, a long-time Rotarian
and a Paul Harris Rotary
Foundation Fellow. Peale is
the minister of Marble
Collegiate Church in New
York City. His first book,
“The Power of Positive
Thinking,” is one of the
most successful books ever
published.
The Hurricane Creek club
was chartered by Rotary
International on December
5, 1979.
Five hundred persons are
expected to attend the
dinner with an additional
two hundred to hear the
guest speaker from the bal-
cony.

Jewelry silver, an alloy
containing (SO percent pure
silver and 20 percent copper,
has a fineness of S00. On the
other hand, yellow gold used
in jewelry is composed of 53
percent gold. 25 percent
silver, and 22 percent copper.
Of course, the value of a
piece of gold or silver jewelry
also depends on other
qualities of the piece,
including the existence of
precious or semi-precious
jewels, as well as the crafts-
manship and age of the piece.
Noting that the Texas
Department of Agriculture is
not in the business of
appraising precious metals.
Commissioner Brown
advised, “Your best bet in
determining the value of any
gold or silver you may have,
particularly if it is contained
in a finished piece of jewelry
or other item, is through an
appraisal by a professional
jeweler or metals dealer.”
Appraisal prices vary, with
most charging a minimum
appraisal fee. Additional
costs also vary, some charg-
ing on the basis of the time it
takes to make the appraisal,
other on a percentage of the
appraised worth, and still
others, depending on the
current precious metals
market.
If you do have any
questions concerning
accuracy of scales used in
weighing your precious
metals, contact the Weights
and Measures Section at the
Texas Department of
Agriculture (Austin number:
512-475-6577) or a TDA
representative at any district
office. Brown concluded.

And how about this sign by
an Old English Church:
Everytime I pass this
church
I pay a little visit.
So when at last I am
carried in,
The Lord won’t say
“Who is it?“.....But
Welcome back again.
SEEDS FROM
I THE SOWER
■ By Michael A. Guido, Matter, Georgia
Years ago, when the
frontier between France
and Switzerland was con-
stantly changing, a crafty
Swiss correctly predicted
the borderline and built &
hotel.
A guest often had one
foot in France and the oth-
er in Switzerland. What
happened if he left without
paying the bill?
‘‘They called the police!”
you say.
Yes, but which—the
French or the Swiss. Well,
that depended on whether
he left by the front or the
back door.
Borderline living has its
problems for citizens, and
Christians. Some try to
live for the Saviour and
self.
But our IvOrd wisely said,
“You cannot serve two mas-
ters: God and money. For
you will hate one and love
the other, or else the other
way around.”
In regard to the Lord,
you have no rights of your
own. God must be the un-
disputed Master of your
life.
The one who begins by
dividing his heart between
God and money, will end
by being wholehearted for
money and fainthearted
for God.
Give up everything for
God, but don’t give God
up for anything.
LET A LITTLE-Classified
ad go to work for you. It will
do a big job, perform a great
service--and make you
money!
