AiUon Tav'ov (Macmrnan Co.. New York City. $3.00,) Tho author, :> yinmg miniS’ ter. has been impressed by two things: the harm liquor does, mtu how little the cljiircli has done to help Us victims. He believes that both AA (“AlcohoHcs Anony mous”) and the church have •omething to learn from cach other. The Problem DrinkerThe Alcoholic Foundation fig* ures that in America, between three million and four milJion per- •ons are “problem drinkers.'* A prob* iem drinker is not yet an alcoholic; but he is next door to being one. He has a reg u lar king-size hansover every M onday mcming, only ns he goes on and on. Dr. Foreman the hangover runs into tho week till toward the l»ntloni of the slide he would regard himself as (or- lunate if nil he lost was a mere week-end. He may not bo ()iiite an alcoholic; but lie is a problem to his friends, liis fmuily. his boss, his business, and to himself. Bui he does not isonli/c the worst fea ture of his probloin: be if _ one step removed from being an alcnliolic. One tbinj' Mr. Aihen suggests, he says always arou.ses comtovorsy. Hut why .sJiouJd it? There is jusl imc sure way of not being rn Hleoli-ib'c and that is not to become a prdblurn drinker. And there Is only one ytii-o way o£ not being a problem drinker; that is nol to start wi;h the Hr.st drink. Ves, it Is as stmi)Ie as that. The Alcoholic Tlie alcoholic is more than a problem drinker. I'o is a ihor- ougWy sick mnn. e/lort of u iU. no sanitarium, no ndviec. no fear of disgrace or pain or death— nothing short of sheer force will kc*>p him from •■.?tiiii)j di-iink and slaying so. These aiv the people with whom AA works and of whom In fact AA is composed. AA b^'nan about tJt years ago wiib a doctor who had lost his piitiesits .nntl a business man wliose business had folded up~both on account of liquor. The Twelve Steps Mr. Aiken's book goes through the "ttvelve steps” which are both the creed and the practice of AA. shows how they work, and calls special attention lo the genuinely religious quality of the program. Here are .some of the 1. “We admitted we wi>re powerless over alcohol.” <C«invcrsion be gins wheti fi man realizoK and ad mits his own helplessiioss.) i. *'We made a deci.sion to turn our will and our lives o\ er to the care of God as we uuiier.stood him.” (This is of the c.s.-icncc of religion.) 7. "We humbly asked God to re* move our shortcomings.” (An al coholic who wants lo be “ctu-od” and yet go on as he is, is a hope* les» case.) 9. ”\Ve made direct •mends to people »ve hnd harmed, wherever possible.” (It is very impressive. Mr. Aikun writes, to see an ex-alcoholic paying back alimony freely, or reviewing son\e •bady business deal in which he had come out with more than his fhare.) 1. "Wo sought . . . to im prove our conscious contact with Ood as we understood him, pray* Inf only for knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry it out.** 12. “We tried to carry (hit message to alcoholics and to practic* these principles la all our AA and Religion Creations will occur to every ent iBtere«ted.

Pa. — Re search men at Pennsyivama State~ College say apple polishing ean be a very serious business.Sprays used on apples to reduce Insect blemishes and tow incidence of disease are being studied to find those which achieve their purpose without destroying the natural shine of the apple peel.Dr. Henry W. Thurstoni Jr.. and Prof. W. A. Chandler, ptofes- sors of plant pathology, say their research to maintain the polish on an apple is no simple task. In their system they use a galvano meter which contains a photoelec tric cell, an incandescent lamp, and a system of mirrors.

We realize that God looked down upon the earth and saw tbe awful wickedness, and was grieved hecanae He made manr He told Noab to make an ark f.ir the saving of his bonsehold. This was done, then God destroyed the entire hamam family exceot Noah and his family. Jesnssald, "A* It was in tbe days of the Son of man, They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marri age. until tbe day that Noab en. tered into the. and the flood came and ilestoved them all.” (Luke 17:26, 19). Neser have we seen such a time of eating and drinking, marrying and divorcing, coi.imiiting crime, hatred among nations, disobedi ence nnto God, revelry and car. onsal as today. The masses of hn. ntanitv seem lo he excited, or pleasure wild, or on a mad rush for monev. The leaders are seek. Ing power, power, more power. The Communist would enslave tbe slave the entire world if possible. This know also, that in the last days perlioua times shall come.

Milk, coffec. beer, solt drinlc. and canned fruit and vegetable juices are the nation’s most popu* iar beverages, according to the figures. MiUc is the most popular single beverage in the United states with the exception of water. The aver* age American citizen consumed 18S quarts of it in 19S2. Coffee is next in popular favor, with consumption totaling lOS quarts. The study also showed that per capita consumption of beer was 67 quarts, soft drinks 45 quarts, and canned fniit and vege* table juices 15 quarts.n ie biggest increase In tbe past decade was in the use of canned fruit and vegetable Juices which has risen 170 per cent since 1940.

Nwr» Car Death Rate Higliestin 15 To 29 Age Group NEW YORK—Nearly all of Ihc increase in automobile deaths in the United Status since 1949 is duu to accidents Involving drivers and r>asscngcrs. Insurance statisticians report.The death rate from accidents in which motor vehicles over* turned on the road, ran olT the highway, or hit a curb, pole, or other fixed object increased by more than 40 per cent from 1049 to 1952. Similarly, the death rate fi-om accidcnts Involving o colli sion of (wo or more vehicles was up 26 per cent. By contrast, the loss of life amune pedestrians injured in aulo- mobiie accidcnts was only slightly higher in 1952 than in 1940. Although every age group under 65 years contributed to the over all rise in the motor vehicle death rate, the largest increases occurred in the age rank from 15 lo 29 years, where more than 90 per cent of the deaths occur among drivers and passengers.In this age range, the rise in the death rate between 1949 and 1052 average aboui 40 per cent. In all. deatl)s from motor vehicle accidents in Uie United Stales have mounted from 32.000 in 1949 to approximately 38,000 In 1952. The all-time high of 40.000 fatali ties was recorded in 1041.

ALL expenses relating to the self-em ployment business should be list ed, whether or not it affects the federal income tax, because many self emplovment claims arc held up in payment purely bee luse of the omission of the self.employed individual to file his returns pro perly. If there are no expenses, show “None”, with an explana tion. The taxpayer should not combine investment income with selfemployment income. F o r example, do not combine income from the rental o f apartment where NO services arc performed, do not combine income from a rooming house (which is' sclf-em- ployment income) or self-employ ment income with profit or loss on a farm. In a parlnership. Form 1065. or its equivalent, should be complcc. ed. In cases of bonufide family partnerships, where husband and wife file joint tax returns, scparjite Schedules C’s should be filed by each. It is highly desirable that the self-employed taxpayer keep copies of his returns for future re ferences and for the purpose of checking his social security count periodically.

Radioactive Atoms May Help Farmers According to scientists radioactive atoms may prove a jzold mine to the farmers of America.Radioactivity e a r m a r k s the atoms so that they may be follow ed through the bodies of anlmal.s givan experimental foods. The atoms will even stand up in the heat of a diesel engine’s combus tion chamber. Produced in an atomic pile Uic atoms already have shown that it is safe to use a new pig nnd chicken fattener. The faltoiior slow.s down the action of the tliyrofd gland. Physicians feared that it might remain in meat and slow the action of the thyroid of humans who ate it. However, the radioactive atoms arc said to have proved th:it the fattener wouldn't show up in pork chops, drum sticks, or other edible portions of the motu. Ct>it.sc- quently, it was a-ssutnud th.’it ii will have no ciTect on human thyroids. Scientists are bombarding seeds with radio active atoms in elTni't.s to develop bettor strains.

Pa. — Re search men at Pennsylvania Slate College say apple polishing can be a very serious business.Sprays used on apples to reduce insect blemishes and low incidence of disease arc being studied to And those which achieve their purpose without destroying the natural shine of the apple peel.Dr. Henry W. Thurston, Jr., and Prof. W. A. Chandler, profes sors of plant pathology, say their research to maintain the polish on an apple is no simple task. In their system they use a galvanometer which contains a photo-elec tric cell, an incandescent lamp, and a system of mirrors. Y our neighbor rearfa Record.

Walters, associate professor of forest utili»allon at the Illinois College of Agriculture, has issued a warning to farmers against buying treated fence posts from "fty-by-nlght" truckers. . Walters reports a number of eases of peddlers selling treated posts that have Just been dipped in preservative—not pressure trcatedt The result is that farmers are paying a premium for posts that will last but a few months longer than untreated ones. He says the peddlers usually stop at individual farms with their ''thickloads of posts, or else head quarters at a community sales barn and sell to farmers there. There are even some reports of sales direct to retail lumber dealers. Posts can be checked to see how deep the preservative has penetrated) but even then it is almost impossible to tell how good it is or how much there is In the post.To find how deeply the preserva tive has penetrated, cross-cut an inch-thick disk from the post and split it along the grain. The pre servative should color the wood at least half an inch deep. The only certain way of getting top-quality, pressure-treated posts is to buy from a reputable local dealer.

As old-age and .survivors insur ance enters its seventeenth year of operation, over five million people are receivinii $200 million In insunmoe pavntents each month The total paid in 1953 to these re tired worker.^, rhcir families, and to dependent survivors of deceas ed workers who were insured, will be more than $2-^ hillion. In the past sixteen years, Amer ican families have built up more protection under Federal old-age id survivors insura, ice than they cenerally realize. Eight\» percent of all jobs In the country are cov* ered by the program, and 62 mil- lion persons are now insured for benefits on tlie basis of their em ployment in covered work. Twen ty-three million of these arc per manendy insured. Four out of five mothers and children in d->e United States arc protected un der the Federal program in case of death of the family breadwin ner. The total face value of the life insurance proicction under written bv the system is over $Z75 billion. Most of the waije earners, their employers and self-employed peo. pie pay social security taxes repu larlv. which ' buys insurance for them. But right now regular cash payments are g:>ing into the homes of people who have retired and to homes where the wage earner has died, to replace income which has been lost.

One Dr. Foreman Electric Power Cribs And Reloads Ear Corn Several Ohio farmers are letting their electric power crfb and reload car com automatically. Hie same arrangement is possible on the majority ot the nation’s toima, since latest available figures re* cord that 88.1% of all farms now are connected to power Unes. Here’s how it works: A power hoist raises the front end of the wagon or truck alter it is backed Into the granary. Com then flows out the end gate and into a combination conveyor*eleva* tor, which moves it along to a larger inclined t>lane elevator to be dumped Into side bins. Both ma* chines are equipped with regula tion flights. The rear wall and both sides ot the side bins are slanted. Ears, therefore, are “hoppered” toward the slatted front of the crib to press agabist conveniently located, and securely held, hinged doors or gales. In loading operations, ear corn flows by gravity from the bot tom of the bins onto the dual pur pose conveyor-elevator to be car ried from the crib, up and into (he wagon. The same type of equip ment can move ear com from cribs to shelters or grinders. EllflMMfliaLE Farm Telephones One convenience which has had an unusual record of ups and downs on the farm since 1920 is the telephone. The percentage of farms having phones has increased steadily since I9«, but It declined during Ihe previous 20 years, the U. S. Department of Agriculture reports. fair question would occur to most people Just here: Is the belief that Jam s Christ is divine just a belief other people about him, or did Jcaus himself ever make any such elaimt 'Hie answer is that Jesus m make such a tremendous claim far himself. Now he never went about saying "I God/’ nevar aaid that so much ns once. But what he did say was so clear, and what it implied about his deity was so plain, that his enemies, who did not believe him ,'naturally called it blasphemy. The 7lh and Mh chapters of John ai-c made up af a sort of runnini* debate or argument between Jesus and his h o ^ e critics. Three ijoints at least stand out. One is that Jesus claimed to be in cnmploie li.nmiony wilh God,—in Tiv. i’hil'.ir.^- words, ha focused God's chatuL."I al ways do what is pleasing u> him,” ba Mid.• • • Tli« Tlioiiglit of God Again, Jesus over ami <>\cr em phasized that his leachln's were not bis own, but lhat he spoke what the Father gave him to speak. His own description of himself (John 8:40) is “a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God." ■*I do nothing on my own author ity.” he said; “but speak as the Father taught me.” ‘'I declare to the world what 1 have heard from him." *'My teaching is not mine, but hi& who sent me” (7:1U). Now it is not possible for any man to penetrate or understand all the thoughts ot God. No huntan mind is capable of understanding them all. What we need, and all wo need, is what God thinks about us. We want to know what he wants us to do. We want to know how he thinks we should live. (TIjc otUy persons who don't want to know that are atheists; once yon believe in God at all. you can undersland how important it Is to know whal God thinks.) It Is this that Jesus muant witen he said his teaching’s were from God. But this involves a tre mendously high claim on Jesus’ part. He claimed Ihiit his thoughts were identical wilh God's ihonghts, that bis wisdom was God's wisdom. It he had said outright. "1 am God.” could he have claimed any higher authority? Th* Purpose of God Jesus not only claimed to focus the character and th<< thought of God, but to focus his pnrpose. 'Hus also was better unrlorstood later Ml than in Jesus’ own lifoti.ne, for the Cross and the Hesurrection were a part of God's purpose. What is the great all-inclusivu Purpose of God for us iiuman beings? Why did Christ come to live and work and teach and die and rise again? Was it simply to "show off" God? Wot at all. It was <as one of the .great Creeds says "for us men and for our salvation.” Note what Jasus hImseU said would come to pass when men foiloweci him, or to use his own startling figure of Speech. ”ate” him like broad, ••drank” him like water, •lie who believes In me. out of his iicai-t shall flow rivers of living water." •*He who follows me will not walk in darkness but will have ihc liulu of Itfe.” ”The truth will nK=k. y(.u “If any one keeps try word, he will never see death."

To quote from n wonderful litUe book. “Your God is Too Smnll*’ (by J. G. Phillips; the Macmillan Co., 00 Fifth Ave.. New York 11, N.Y.); “There must b« more than elusive sparks and flashes of Uie divine— there must be a flame burning steadily so that its Hg})t can bo ex- •mined . . . It is a fasctnniing prob lem for Us human beings to con sider how the Eter nal Being—wishing t« show men his own Character fo c u se d , h is ow n Thought ex- pressed, and his own Ptirpose dem- ODStrated — could introduce him self into the stream of hum an history without disturbing or disrupting i t . . . Tlie thing must 1>* done properly—it must not be merely an act put on for man’s benefit. If it is to be done at all Cod must be man.” The Chorocter of GodNow the centr.nl Christian belief it that God has dnnc exactly that; Im has been »nd is "focused,'* brought to tlie point whore he can b t clearly seen nnd known, In a msn. in the Mon Clirist Jesus. One fair question would occur to most people iust here: is the belief that Jmus Christ is divine just a belief of other people about him. or did Jmus himself ever make any such «lsim? The answer is that Jesus did make such a tremendous claim l»r himself. Now he never went •bout saying “I am God.” He n«v«r n id that so much as once. But what he did say w.ns so clear. •Ad what it implied abuut his deity WAS to plain, that his enomies, who did not believe hlni.^ naturally esUed it blasphemy. The 7th and •th chapters of John nro made up of • sort of running deb/ite or •rgument between Jcsun nnd his boatU* critics. Thice poinls at tessi stand out. One Ir that Jesus claimed to be in con*. hnrmony with God,—in Dr. Pi-, nords. he focused God’s chji..!',:: "1 al ways do what is pleasing lo hiin.” be said. Again, Jesus over nnd i.v'i- em phasized that his lcnclntr;s -.vore not his own, but that he spoko what the Father gave him to sportk. His own description of hims<Of Uolin 8:40) is "a man who hiis toW you the truth which I heard from God.” "1 do nothing on my own autht)r- ity,” he said; "but speak as the Father taught me.” ”T declare to the world what I have hrni'd from him.” "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me” (7:16). Now it is not possible for any man to penetrate or understand all the thoughts of God. No human mind is espablc of undorslanding them ail. What we need, and all we need, is what God thinks about us. We want to know what he wnnts us to du. We want to know how he thinks we should live. (The only persons who don't want to know th:U are •theists; once you believe hi God at all. you can uncK'r.slaiid how im. portant it is to know what God thinks.) It is this that .lc.sus ineuiii when he said his teachln.L>s were from God. But this involves a tre. mendously high claim on Jesus’ part. He claimed that his thoughts were identluul v/ith God's thouglits, that his wisdom was God's wisdom. it he had said outri/,>ht, ”I am God.” could he have'claimed any tiigher authority? The Purpose of God Jesus not only claimed to focus the character nnd the thought of God, but to focus his purpose, 'i'his also was better undor^lood later on than in Jesus’ own iiJciinie, for the Cross and the Resurrection were a part of God’s purfxjic. What Is the great all-inclusive Purpo:>e ol God for us human beings? Why did Christ come to live -and work •nd teach and die and ri.^o .T^^ain? Was it simply to “show off” God? Not at all. It was (as one of the great Creeds says ”for u:« men and for our salvation.” Nolo what Jesus himself said would ooine lo pass when men followed him, or to use his own siartlini; li^'urc of speech. ”ate” him like b«:c;ul. ”drank” him like water, ••lie wiio believes in me, out uf his heart shall flow rivers of iiviny wutor.” “He who follows tr.t: will n.ji w.tlk in darkness but vWJl have th-: of life." ”Thc t.mth ujtl m;:ko jcu •free,’* “If any o!;o keep:, ni> ivumI, b« will never sc..' rionih ' That tlic^ life of God shoiiiii imvv in:c. and illumine all th-.- *;.< .-i r.im - us is the Pur^iose oi |. n = - -.a. .»9 e> Electric Power Cribs And Reloads Ear Corn Several Ohio farmers are letting their electric power crib and reload ear corn automatically. The same arrangement is possible on the majority of the nation’s farms, since latest available figures re cord & at 88.1K of all farms now are connected to power lines. .Here's how It wprka: A power hoist raises the front end of the wagon or trudc after it is backed Into the granary. Com then flows out the end gate and into a combination conveyor-eleva* tor. which moves it along to a larger incUned plane elevator to be dumped into side bins. Both ma chines are equipped with regula* tion flights.The rear wall and both slde.^ of the side bins are slanted. Ears, therefore, are “hoppered” toward the slatted front of the crib to press against conveniently located, and securely held, hinged doors or gates. In loadbig operations, ear corn flows by gravity from the bot tom of the bins onto the dual pur pose conveyor-elevator to be car ried from the crib, up and into the wagon. The same type of equip* ment can move ear com from cribs to shellers or grinders. Farm Telephones One convenience which has had an unusual record of ups and downs on the farm since 1920 Is the telephone. The percentage of farms having phones has in* creased steadily since 1940. but it declined durint. the previous 20 years, the U. S. Department of Agriculture reports.

Frankly, If the hy- ■rite keeps yon away from church fso*t he a Iltlle larger tbao yott are? Aren’t you just a coward to let him rule you out of tbe plane where you have a right to be, and out to be? If be keeps you awav from church he may keep yon ont of heaveu. Show your colors and be larger and braver than the by pocrite. W hile he is a hypocrite vnu onght to be a saint. Yon ought to. do one of tw o things, either orar tbe hypocrite into sal vation, or pray him out of the church. T he man who is continually look, log for something bad Is not apt find much that is good. We usnaltv find what we are tookfng for. Some people have a beautiful face, but their conduct is very ttg)y. Better watch your coodnct and your character, oj your beauty mav defeat and finally dam you >r. God never takes one to heaven on account of beauty, but because of godliness and holiness. Someone has said, “ W e are un- defeatable, unless we defeat o ur selves " Lots of truth in this. In he final windup of life, it Is not tbe other fellow so m uch that has held us hack, kept us from the goat, and brought us down to re morseful defeat, but one*s own self. It Is a thousand times better to' pray th in to fuss. Those who fuss don't pray, but those who really and trnlv pm y don’t ftt^. Make rule to let the other fellow do the fussing, but you do tbe pray ing and see who feels the best, is the happiest, wears tbe shining face, climbs upward and reaches life*s best and highest goal.

Holds Two Records SAN DIEGO — Florence Chadwick, a San Diego stenographer, who recently swam the shark-in fested Straits ot Gibraltar, will go down in sport history as one ot the great endurance swimmers of all times. She swam tbe Straits In 9 hours and 6 minutes, beating the pre vious record held by a man by an' hour and 59 minutes. Experts had expressed doubt that Miss Chadwick could make the difficult B-miie crossing. The flrst woman conqueror ot Gibraltar's to u g h currents was Mercedes Gleitz ot Britain, who made it in 1928 In 13 hours and 42 minutes. Miss Chadwick is the flrst wom an to swim tbe English Channel both ways. She holds the England- to-France record with 14 hours and S2 minutes. In crossing the StraiU she swam the same breast s ^ k e at 30 strokes a minute all the way across. A doctor who examined her immediately after the swim, exclaimed: “This is not a woman, this is a Titan.

A number of persons who work for themselves have not yet made the required 1951 and 1952 social security reports.

One morning on a tour of in spection a colonel stopped at the kitchen of one of the companies in his command, where he met two K. P.*s wiih a large soup kettle. "Here, vou K. P.” he bellowed. 'Let me taste that soup.” One of the men hurried back after large spoon, which he handed re spectfully to the colonel. The officer plunged the ladle into the pot, took a mouthful of the steaming liquid, and smacked his lips critically. Then he let out a howl that could be heard at G. H.

Therefore, quite a few self-employed who do not ordinarily file income tax returns must make social security returns. Persens who had self-employ ment income are asked to contact the local security office of Internal Revenue Office, if there is any question about their self-employ ment being imder social security.

We are hoping the next legislature will give us a state wide referendum on this question. Making Good Despite the fact that many De mocrats and some Republicans are blaming President Eisenhower for everything bad that happens from the drought and boll weevil to high price of coffee, conditions are better today in the United Stutes than in any other country on the face of the earth. In 1949-1950, there were more than four million people in this country without a joy. In Janary of this year, there were less than two million people out of em ployment. Among the good things that have been accomplished during the first year of President Eisen* hewer’s tenuie in office we note the followine: The administration has reduced the budget which Mr. Truman de clared couldn’t be reduced bv the magnificent sum of fourteen bil. lion dollars. It has cut off com mitments to future expenditure by the enormous sum of $7,000,- 000.000, which is a saving to A- merican taxgavers of $21,000,000.* 000. It has stopped the killing of thousands of our soldier boys in Korea. The administration has done many more things worthy of spe* cial mention during the past year. Five Arrested William Horton, Jr.. Bobby F. Sharpe, Bill Melton and Harold S. Renegar were arrested last week charged with breaking and enter* ing, larceny and receiving, and Edward C. Ball, charged with aid* Ing and abetting. The men, rang ing in age from 22 to 32 years, stole a number o/ tables from the Hanes Chair & Furniture Co. Deputy Ransome Cook told a Re* cord reporter titat eight ot the ta* bles had been recoverd. The men all gave bonds for their ap pearance at the March term of Davie Superior court. Phelps In Korea 24th Div., Korea— Amy Pvt. Hubert W. Phelps, whose wife. Ruth, lives in Advancc, N.

It returned to the penin< sula shortly before the cease fire. A tank gunner with the 19di In fantry Regiment's Tank Campanv, Private Phelps completed basic training at Fort Knox, Ky. For Sheritt Our old friend Ben Y. Boyles, who is a salesman at Sanford's Department Store, tells us that he Is going to file as a candidate for sheriff in the Democratic primanv. May 27th. Ben has been a citi zen of Mocksville for more than a quarter of century and for many years operated the Mocksville Ice ^ Fuel Co.

It is a fair question.. When E. Stan* ley Jones was talking about hts Christian faith to a group of pro fessors in a great university, one of them rose to ask him: “How do you know all this is not a halluclna* tion?" '*WeU," said Dr. Jones, ‘'if religion is a hallucination and 1 am crazy, then 1 am thankful; for this ‘insanity’ has done more for me than all the ‘sanity* 1 had before." Dr. Jones did not sup* pose that he could a n s w e r all the riddles about re ligion that any one can think of. But he did know Jesus Foreman and he knew what Jesus had done for him. G. Studdert-Kennedy was another thorough-going Christian. At the end of a poem on “Faith” he says something like this: “You think Christianity is an argument, but it is not. It is a chdce: and 1 choose Christ.**• « • ^One Thing 1 Know*The Bible story for this week teUs about a young man who did not claim to know much. If you had put him into a modem theological seminary he could not have passed an examination in -Christology” to save his life. In fact, it seems doubtful whether he would even be admitted to membership in some orthodox churches today. The theo* logical experts of his church, the Pharisees, in fact tried to grill him. They tried to confuse him, they wanted him to admit that Jesus was a fake, a liar, all the bad things they kept saying he was. But the young man stuck to one point. He does not seem to have been well educated. It may be doubted whether he could have met those Pharisees in a formal debate. But he stuck to his one point. “One thing I know, that though I was blind, now I see.” The beat proof that Jesus was right, that Chris tianity is true, is not argumenls from books, it is the argument from people. It is what Christ has done for them, it is the difrerence between what they were before they met Jesus and what they were afterwards. Samples In an American seminary the same year, studying for the Chris tian ministry, were a Japanese and an African. Their ancestors did not speak the same language. Only a few years ago the father of the Japanese boy was an officer in the Japanese army fighting the Americans. Neither he nor his wife was a Christian; but after the fa ther’s death the boy came to know some Christian missionaries, and now instead of an errand of death his aim is to return to his own people on an errand of life. “I can see now,” the young man said, “that Japan was wrong.” Christ had opened his eyes to a way of life, and of truth, which has changed his whole life and will change others. As for the African, a few generations back his people were as far from Christian as the Japanese officer. Then some one thought it worth while to tell the siory of Jesus in Africa . . . and now this boy, son of native African Christians, is another demonstra tion that Christianity is true. You would not have found It safe to sit down with some of his ancestors (nor with some of your own, for that m atterl); but you would be glad to have him in your Sunday school class. Prevention Mission Not all the “samples" of Chris tianity are as dramatic as excannibals. or sons of former idol* worshippers. For every “rescue mission" there are many “preven tion mlS8ions“~for the ordinary little church i. just that. Consider what a community would be with out the church, consider what the church members would be without their religion. Granted that church members do not live up to their possibilities or their professions. We do not want to tear down the hospitals because they do not cure all the diseaees. We do not abolish medicine because some people take it and are not quite cured. We know the world is better for hos pitals and medicines, imperfect as they are. So we know that Christianity does work. We do not sec great saints every week, morc*s the pity. But you do not have to look far from your own home to see some living proofs that Christ has power. Over 1,500 People Are Killed ARniially In Car-Train Wrecks MINNEAPOLIS-Over 1.500 peo- pie are killed and more than 4.000 are injured cach year in approximately 4,000 collisions ot nutn- mobilcs with railrond trains. Ot these accidents. 40 per ccnt occur in spite of closed gates, watchmen, or special signals warning of the train's approach.Three times as many such acci dents occur per hundred specially protected crossings ns occur per hundred crossings m&rkcd only with traditional “cross-buck" em blem. The specially protected cross ings, of course, average much heavier in volume of trafllc, but their high accident ratio reveals the amazing capacity for heedless driving which makes the Ameri can motorist the despair of safety engbieers. The four chief causes of such , accidents, according to highway authorities, are: 1. Simply taking it for granted that there is no train coming. 2. Paying no attention to “Stop" and warning signs. 3. Trying to beat the train to the crossing when a train is in sight or signals arc flashing. 4. Starting across after a train has gone by, without looking for a second train on another track. Migrotoiy Birds Hit Empire State NEW YOHK—The Empire Stale building in New York is a trafllc hazard for migratory birds going south along the Atlantic Flyway fnnn Canada and New England. On numerous occasions hundreds have crashed into the building as they passed over New York in the night. 7%e exact cause of the mass destruction remains obscure. On • two occasions the birds were going south on a cold air mass that gave them a tailwind. Ehcactly why many of the birds are killed against the building were flying so low is also obscure. Most of those that have flown into the structure usually travel at about 2,000 feet in the air. The building is 1,250 feet. Omithologisls report that ihe building is a hazard at night when darkened after 12 o'clock. Many ' migratory birds take oil at sun down and fly all night in tlicir southern journey. Navy's Skyray Sets New Speed Record THERMAL, Calif.—The Navy’s new Skyray inlereeptor has won back the world's measured course record with an average of 753.4 miles an hour. The plane was flown by Lt. Com. James B. Verdin, 35, combat hero of World War II and Korea. The plane is a flying-wing jet type craft. The Skyray erased the 737.3 m.p.h. record set t>y a British Vieers Supermarine Swift a few weeks earlier. The Skyray is designed for use off carriers to protect the fleet from attack and is now scheduled for tests aboard p. flattop. During the 20 minutes between take-off and landing, the nine-ton plane, powered by a Westlnghouso J.40 turbojet engine, used approximately 3,500 pounds of jet fuel, a gasoime-kerosene combhiation. Seven Men Survive ' 37 Days in Woods BAGOTVH.LE. Quobcc — Seven men who spent 37 days in the wilds of Canada reported they had a rugged time. They were half starved when discovered. The plane carrying the men ran out of gas and they were marooned on a small lake. The party exhausted their food supplies — ra tions for two men for 30 days. These were split among the seven men. When they ran out of this they ate wild moss, partridge, hare, and two small trout. The escape was a narrow one. Authorities were on the verge of abandoning a long search for the men when a Royal Canadian Air Force plane spotted them.

Metallic zinc is the host of various paints used to check rust and two coats will renew the zinc coating carried by ordinary galvanized sheets, A single coat over rust will last several years; In reconditioning an old roof, re nail the sheets with 1^4 to l*inch screw type nails, spaced about .eight inches apart on the side laps and five inches apart on tho ends. Before painting, remove loose rust with a stiff broom or wire brush, if rust coat is heavy. Surfaces to be painted should also be free of dust, dirt, greaso and oil. Turpentinn or mhieral spirits are both excellent for removing grease or oil. ; Spray painting will save both time and labor.

She swam the Straits in 5 hours and 6 minutes, beating the pre* vious record held by a man by an hour and 53 minutes. Experts had expressed doubt that Miss Chadwick could make the dimcult 8*mlle crossing. The first woman conqueror of Gibraltar's to u g h currents was Mercedes Gteitz'of Britain, who made it in 1928 in 13 hours and 42 minutes. Miss Cliadwick Is tbe first worn* an to swim the English Channel both wayss She holds the England* to-France record with 14 hours and 52 minutes. In crossing the Straits she swam the same breast strcdce at M strokes a minute all the way across. A doctor who examined her immediately after the swim, exclaimed: •'Thia la noi a woman, this is a Titan. Her pulse, respira tion, and blood pressure are completely norma!.'* Miss Chadwick said after the swim that the English Channel Is much wider, but not near as difficult as the Straits. She said the currents there are the strcmgest she had ever encountered. During the trip she took nourish ment three times. She had broth and vitamins alter 2 hours, chick> en half an hour later, and crackers at 4 hours. y . S. i - \ Hs:o:ec! drn'm !l:wspsr?;r W&3* AI.EXANDRIA, Vn o!,:.- d!»lly newspaper in th»? nrSM'n.

One morning on a tour of in spection a colonel stopped at the kitehen of one of the companies in his command, where he met two K. P.’s wiih a large soup kettle. **Here, vou K. P.” he bellowed. 'Let me taste that soup.” One of the men hurried back after a large spoon, which he handed re- spectfully to the colonel. The dfficer plunged the ladle into the pot, took a mouthful of the steaming liquid, and smacked his lips critically. Then he let out a howl that could be heard at G. H. Q. half a mile away. "Soup, you blasted fool, do you call that soup?” he roared. “No, sir, colonel, that’s just some dish water we were carrying out." Our County And Social Security By Louis H. Clement, Manager. A number of persons who work for. themselves have not yet made the required 1951 and 1952 social security reports. This is shown by contacts be* ing made by the social security office field personnel and by in quiries being received by theoflSce. Some people have the impres sion that payment of social se curity tax by the self-employed employed and the resulting old- age and survivors tnsuancc cover* age is a matter of choice. This is as compulsory as making an in* come return if your net self*em* ployment income i^ as much as $400 and is not from one of the pro^feis^ions excluded from social security coverage,* In fact, the covered self-employment income must be reported on a section of the Income tax return at the time the imcome tax report'is made. He pointed out that self-em ployed people who have a net earnings of at least $400 during their tax year must file the social security section of the income tax return even though they aren’t re* quircd to make Federal income tax return. Personal exemptions permitted for inconiu tax purposes are not ploymenc net earnings for social security purposes. Therefore, quite a few seif-employed who do not ordinarily file income tax returns must make social security returns. Persons who had self'Cmploy- ment income are asked to contact the local security office of Internal Revenue Office, if there is any question about their self-employ ment being under social security. A representative of the Sails* field office of the Social Security administration will be in Mocks- ville on the 1st and 3rd Fridays, at the Courthouse, second floor at 12:30 p. m.; and on the same date In Cooleemec at the Band Hall, over Ledford’s store, at 10 a. m. 1 0 ^ Jets Produced in Past Ten Years WASmNOTON—Tbe aircraft in- dustry reports It has delivered 10,000 jet airplanes and 40,000 jet engines to the Aitr Force in the past 10 years.

In 1949-1950. there were more than four million people in this country without a joy. In Janary of this year, there were less than two million people out of em' . ployment. Among the good things that have been accomplished during the first year of President Eisen hower’s tenuie in office we note the following: The administration has reduced the budget which Mr. Truman de dared couldn’t be reduced bv the . ^gnificent sum of fourteen bil' lion dollars. It has cut off com mitments to future expenditure bv the enormous sum of $7,000.- 000,000, which is a saving to A- merican taxgavers of $21,000.000.. 030. It has stopped the killing of thousands of our soldier boys in Korea. The administration has done many more things worthy of spe cial mention during the past year. Five Arrested William Horton, Jr., Boliby F. Sharpe, Bill Melton and Harold S. Renegar were arrested last week charged with breaking and enter- ing, larceny and receiving, and Edward C. Ball, charged with aid ing and abetting. The men. rang ing in age from 22 to 32 years, stole a number of tables from the Hanes Chait & Furniture Co. Deputy Ransomc Cook told a Re cord reporter that eight ot the ta bles had been recoverd. The men all gave bonds for their ap pearance at the March term of Davie Superior court.

It is a fftir 4i»ftion. When S. Stanley Jones was talking about bis . Christian faith to a group ot pro* fessors In a great university, one of them rose to ask him: “How do you know an this is not a hallucina tion?” “WeU/' said Dr. Jones, “if reUgion is a hallucination and I am crazy, then 1 am thankful; for this 'insanity* has done more for me than all the ‘sanity* I had before.*’ Dr. Jones did not sup> pose that he could a n s w e r all the riddles about re> ligion that any one can think of. But _ h t did know Jesus Foreman and he knew what Jesus had done tor him. G. Studdert>Kennedy was another thorough>golng Christian. At the end of a poem on "Faith" he says something like this: “You think Christianity is an argument, but it is not. It is a choice: and I choose Ohrist.'*• • • 'One Thine I Know* The Bible story for this week tells about a young man who did not claim to know much. It you had put him into a modern theological seminary he eould not have passed an examination In "Christology'* to save his life. In fact, it seems doubtful whether he would even be admitted to membership In some orthodox churches today. The theo* logical experts of his church, the Pharisees, in fact tried to grill him. They tried to confuse him. they wanted him to admit that Jesus was a fake, a liar, all the bad things they kept saying he was. But the young man stuck to one point. He docs not seem to have been well educated. It may be doubted whether he could have met those Pharisees In a formol debate. But he stuck to his one point. "One thing I know, that though I was blind, now 1 sec." The best proof that Jesus was right, that Chris tianity is true, is not arguments from books, it is the nri'ument from people. It is what Christ has done for them, it is the difference between what they were before they met Jesus and what they were afterwards. Samples In an American seminary the same year, studying for the Chris tian ministry, were a Japanese and an African. Their ancestors did not speak the same language. Only a few years ago the father of the Japanese boy was an officer in the Japanese army fighting the Americans. Neither he nor his wife was a Christian; but after the father's death the boy came to know some Christian missionaries, and now Instead of an errand of death his aim is to return to his own people on an errand of life. ‘'I can see now." the young man said, "that Japan was wrong." Christ had opened his eyes to a way of life, and of truth, which has ^changed ills whole life and will change others. As for the African, a few generations back his people were as far from Christion as the Japanese officer. Then some one thought it worth while to tell the story of Jesus In Africa . . . and now this boy, son of native African Christians, is another demonstra- - tion that Christianity Is true. You would not have found it safe io sit down with some ot his ancestors (nor with some of your own, for that m atterl); but you would be glad to have him in your Sunday school class. Prevention Mission Kot ail the "samples" of Chris tianity are as dramatic as excannibals, or sons of former Jdol- worshippers. Tor every "rescue mission" there are many "preven tion missions"—for the ordinary litUe church I. Just that. Consider what a community would be with out the church, consider what the church members would be without their religion. Granted that church members do not live up to their possibilities or their professions. We do not want to tear down the hospitals because they do not cure all the diseases. We do not abolish medicine because some people take It and are not quite cured. We know the world is better for hos pitals and medicines, imperfect as they are. So we know that Chris tianity does work. We do not see great saints every week, more s the pity. But you do not have to look far from your own home to see some living prnnfs that Christ has power. •utllar* tij- tb*I CkrtM fJn C ifu-.il-B ., Over 1,500 People Are Killed Annually In Car-Train Wrecks MINNEAPOLIS-Ovcr 1,500 peo ple are idlied and more than 4,000 are injured each year In approx imately 4,000 collisions of auto mobiles with railroad trains. Of these accidents, 40 per ccnt occur In spite of closed gates, watchmen, or special signals warning of the train’s approach. Three times as many such acci dents occur per hundred specially protected crossings as occur per hundred crossings marked only with traditional "cross-buck" em blem. The specially protected crossings. of course, average much heavier in volume of trafllc, but their h i^ accident ratio reveals the amazing capacity for heedless driving which makes the American motorist the despair of safety engineers. The four chief causes of such accidents, according to iiighway authorities, arc: 1. Simply taking it for granted that there is no train coming. 2. Paying no attention to "Stop" and warning signs. 3. Trying to beat the train to the crossing when a train is to sight or signals are flashing. 4. Starting across after a train has gone by, without looking for a second train on another track. Migrotoiy Birds Hit Empire State NEW YORK—The Empire State building in New York Is a traflic hazard for migratory birds going south along the Atlantic Flyway from Canada and Now England. On numerous occasions hundreds have crashed into tho building as th ^ passed over New Yoric In the night. The exact cause of the mass destruction remains obscure. On two occasions the birds were going south on a cold air mass that gave them a tailwind.Exactly why many of the birds are killed against the building were flying so low is also obscure. Most of those that have flown Into the structure usually travel at about 2,ODO feet in the air. The building la 1,250 feet. Ornithologists report that the building is a hazard at night when darkened after 12 o’clock. Many migratory birds take oil at sun down and fly all night in Ihcir southern journey. Navy's Skyray Sets New Speed Record THERMAL, Colil.—The Navy’s new Skyray interceptor has won back the world's measured course record with an average of 753.4 miles an hour. jl The plane was flovm by Lt. Com. James B. Verdin, 35, combat * hero of World War H and Korea. The plane Is a flying-wlng jet type craft.The Skyray erased the 737.3 m.p.h. record set by a British Vlcers Supermarlne Swift a few weelts earlier. The Skyray is designed for use oS carriers to protect tho fleet from attack and is now scheduled for tests aboard p. flattop. During the 20 minutes between take-off and landing, the nine-ton plane, powered by a Westlnghouso J-40 turbojet engine, used approx imately 3.600 pounds of jet fuel, a gasoUne-kerosene combination. Seven Men Survive 37 Days in Woods BAGOTVILLE, Quebcc - Sovon men who spent 37 days in the wilds ot Canada reported they had a rugged time. They were half starved when discovered. The plane carrying the men ran out of gas and they were marooned on a small lake. The party ex hausted their food supplies —ra tions for two men for 30 days. These were split among tl^e seven men. When they ran out of this they ate wild moss, partridge, hare, and two small trout. The escape was a narrow one. Authorities were on the verge of abandoning a long scarch for the men when a Royal Canadian Air Force plane spotted them.

Care of Galvanized Roofs Will Pay Well Galvanized roofs will look bcder. last longer, if they are pninted and kept weather-tight. % If your metal rooi in need of repair, or will i\eed repnfrs soon, make some fair weather plans now to recondition correctly and you’ll save money In the long run. Galvanized surfaces, of course, should hot be painted until they have weathered several months to one year. Metallic zinc is tlie best pf various.paints used to check rust and two coats will renew the . zinc coating carried by urdinary galvanized sheets. A sbigle coat over rust will last several years. In reconditioning an old roof, re- nail the sheets with 1% to t-lnch screw type nails, spaced about ' eight inches apart on the side laps and five Inches apart on the ends. Before painting, remove loose rust with a stiff broom or wire brush. i{ rust coat is heavy. Surfaces to be painted should also be free of dust, dirt, grease and oil. Turpentine nr mineral spirits are both excellent for removing grease or oil. Spray painting will save both time and labor.

They’ll put their money in the bank And let the cause of God go lank; They’ll buv np houses, atocka and bonds. Or farms and orchards, streai and ponda; They’ll turn their dollars round about. But If you'd ask lor one they'd pout; They’ll get and keep just all they can. For that’s tbelt purpose, aim and plan. you should pleach that they should give To helo their fellowmen Io live. They'll twlal and squirm upon their seat And soon they’ll make a faat retreat. And then declare they like to hear The Gospel that will please theiar. And not dislurb their stingy aouls Lest gloom upon their conscience rolls. Such stingy folks will never grace Their home a n d church with smiling face; They’ll never bless their native land. Nor with tbe nohle take Iheir aland Thev’ll never leave a life anbllme To shine upon the shores of time. Nor rear a monument of fame To long perpetaate their name. When people live for self alone.

And in the ■mage of God created He both male and female created He them." So we see that man is it> the im age of God; the two look exactly alike because man was made from the pattern of the Lord. We read in Genesis 32 chapter, where Jacob held on to the Lord and wrestled with Him until the break of day and would not let Him go until the Lord gave him a blessing. Jacob said he saw God face to foce. Moses said he saw God face to face. Exodus 33:11* and on another occasion the Lord tjld Moses, “Thou canst not see my face; for there shall no mat. ace me and live,” And the Lord said, “Behold, there Is a place bv me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock; and it shall come to pass, while mv glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a c'fft o'f the rock HE WAS SICK A small boy returned home from school one afternoon and went to his room and stayed there nervously until his father return' ed home from work. Finally the tad gathered up his courage and approached his father. Daddy," he said hesitatingly, "here’s mv report card." His father took the c rd and looked at it silently for several moments. Then he said severely. “Son, how is it that you are at the bottom of your classi" “Well, Daddy, the bov who is usually at the bottom has been a- wav sick.” This I Remember Seea Aloag Main Street <and'will cover thee with my hand while 1 pass by; and 1 will take a- wav jny hand, and thou shalt see my back part«. but my face shall not be seen " Exodus 33. In this statement the Lord mentions sev eral parts of his body, such as hia face* hands* back parts, so it is natural if he had back parts he had front parts; if he had a .iiand he had arm and shoulder, and if he had a face he had a head, so it coniirms the statement in the bcBtnninii when the Lord said he would make men In His own im* age. Again we read in Acts, chap ter 7, when Stephen was being stoned to death, he said, *'Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.” We have these references to the effect that man is created in the image of God, and those who saw God described him by naming parts of his body, and in no instance do they de scribe Him other than man look- I f the price, of eoff^ exactly like Him.

I, L. BENNETT. By R. S. Meroney, Asheville, N. C. Dear Mr. Stroud: Some months ago while I was on a visit to Mocksvllle, and we were talking about the “old days,” I promised you that some time I would write some of my memories for publi* cation. Many incidents are still vivid in my memory, but 1 cannot give any dates; so here's just a lit tle stuff that might intciest some of the “old timers”, and maybe some of tlie younssters: 1 remember when Mocksville had only one train a day. This was a mixed passengcf'freight af fair, and came to Mocksville in the afternoon from Winston. At that time this branch of the Sou' them fextended only to Mocks* villc, and there was a turn*table right at Horn-Johnson mill. The engine would be run on this, and ihe table be pushed around by hand, and the train would head back for Winston. Later the railroad line was ex tended to Mooresville. A Mr. Pruden had the contract for tlie stretch of road through Mocks- viile. He made his headquarters there, and had a large force of Negro workmen and mules. All the railroad work was done by Negroes, mules and dump carts. When the road was completed a umber of Mocksville citizens, headed bv Mr. Tom Bailey, chip ped in and gave the Negroes watermelon feast on one Saturday evening. This was held under some large walnut trees near the J.P. Green^tore, and that was one happy bunch of Negroes. Mr. Tom Bailey made a little talk to the gathering, and inany ot the white people had gathered to see the feast. Before the railroad was extend' ed to Mooresville, mail came in once a day from Salisbury. A col ored fellow had this job, and dur ing the season would bring a box of fresh fish every Friday, which he peddled out before re- turning to Salisbury. Tl^at was before the day of the R. F. D.. and the mail from Cana, Farmington, etc., came in the same way. I remember one win ter when the roads were so bad that a horse and buggy could not make it, and a Mr. Wilson came in from Cana with the mall sack on his back. These "star route' mail carriers were also allowed to haul passengers, and many Mocks* viile people went to • and from Salisbury “by mail.” I No more interest has ever been shown in professional or amateur baseball than was the rule back Shoaf Coal & Sand Co.

General o( the Armlei John J. Pershing heads the list. General Pershing received this special rank after World War 1 and Is the only American ever to hold It. General of the Armies and General of the Army, both five-star ranks, did not exist in Washington’s day. In many Instances the Army acted years after an offlcer's de parture from active duly or after his death to give him promotion. Ulysses S. Grant. William T. Sher- roan and Philip Sheridan achieved four-star rank long alter the ClvU War. But the Army promotion boards never have done anything about stepping up the rank of the ilrat commander.Army historians say a Congres sional Act of 1799, while General Washington was holding the offtce of commander with the rank of lieutenant general, undoubtedly was intended to provide the rank of full general for him. But> the historians report, no record can be found to show the appointment was made then or since, for the man who became first President of the United States.'As the list standi new. the officer who immediately eut*ranks Gen eral Washington In the official list of high offlcers is Gen.

India there is one d the most exclusive religions in the world, the religion ot the Parseet. There are more Baptists in Georgia alone than there arc Partees in the whole world.. If you aren't a Parsee bom you con never get in. Even if you marry ft Parsee it does you no good; you are an outsider the rest of your life. That is precisely the opposite of the Cliristian religion. Bniy Graham preachcs to thou sands of people night after night and -ht invites every one of those people in the great tabernacles and auditoriums to be come a Christian. Tht congregations ara not screened. No one has to pass ■n Intelligence test or an FBI screen ing or • financial credit rating, or any tort of pre- vloua sifting what- Dr. Foreman ever. Billy Sunday did not know, of course, his audicnces by name. AU he knew is that they were peo ple. And being a Bible ChrisUan be knew that wherever people are, there God*a Invitation holds good. All People A rU ost Two things are quite clear from the New Testament. One is that all people are lost The other is that God does not want any one to stay lost. Jesus spoke of hlm- sell as the Shepherd and of people as lost sheep. To be ‘lost” docs not mean to be hopelessly ac cursed. Any one who has ever seen a lost sheep knows what a forlwn sight it is, bedraggled, be- wlUered, not likely ever to get home unless some one shows it the way. Lost cats need nobody’s sympathy; they will find their way bade all righL But we arc not lost cats or homing pigeons, we a n lost sheep. That is a picturc- way of saying that unless God seta us on the right track and leads us home, we are all ot us more likely to go wrong than to go’ right. A lost sheep has no pride. Some men have said that pride Is the root ot all sins. Jesus did not seem to think so; weakness and stupidity account for just as many •Ins as pride. God Invites AllGod never meant heaven to be •xclxisive. He never meant us to be snobbish about our religion. There aro some mistakes here, com monly made, which need clearing up. One is that because God wants all men to be saved, he is going to save everybody regardless. Now it ^ we knew ol the New TesU- meni were this parable ot the sheep, we might suppose God would work it that way and bring all people to his eternal home regardless of how they felt about It, as a shepherd does with his sheep or a cowhand with his little dogles. But the rest of'the gospels show us that God deals with us as free men. Heaven is not a sack i into which God dumps everybody i sooner or later, with their leave or without it. Heaven has a door, i and the name of the door is Jesus > Christ. You can put that in differ ent ways too. Christ is the only door to the Christian life. He is the only door to the kingdom of God. If we wish to belong to God's Idngdom we cannot turn away from Christ, we must come to God through him. But another mistake is to suppose that God of Ceedi of Davie Couniy, North Cnrotina. default having been made in the payoMol of the indebtedness thereby secured, and said derd of trust being by the terms thereof subject lo foreclosure, the under signed Trustee ¥/\\l offer for sals st pnbllc auction to the hisbest bidder for cash, at the CourihouHe door in Mockavflle.

Lathrap MV FATHER-IN-LAW is a wil; guy. but I never thought he’i so lo the lengths he did to fix iliinss for me. Sometimes I think he .'•ctunlly hates me. the way he talks about Ana- bol having to work so hnrd and the kids needing shoes and ‘hmgs. Then again he’s pret ty d£ceni ‘o me. You never know. So I a'iways try to keep my big mouth shut and let him think he’s a big shot. That’s the way it was last Sunday. We were cruising along home from visiting Anabel’s brother and fomily in the suburbs of Chicago. C. A. and Grace were in the back scat wrestling with our kids as usual, with Anabel putting in her lick from the right front. “Sit down. Hap, and look out the window for a change.” •In my day—” C. A. began. "Now Charles, we all know in reaUy docs not want to come in to “the marriage supper” as Jesus put it once. His Invitation is to aU, really to all; but he never forces any one to accept. • • • The Church for All A common sight, and a sad sight too, is a “class church.” It doesn’t make any difference what class it may be; it may be en tirely of country people, or en tirely of city people; it can be made up of high-brows or the uneducated; it is a class church if the people in it just don’t want to have others in it whose cir cumstances arc different from theirs. If all men are lost and it ‘ God’s desire is that all shall be saved, no church should be more exclusive than G<xl Is. God does not draw color lines or class lines or money lines. Tlic ideal church, the one that rellects the facts of Christ’s love and the calling of God. 's one in which no human being who loves the Lord Jesus and gives his heart to him. can feel strange or out of place. Tljcrc is no use saying, ’ We only want our kind of people” , if Christ lived and died for ali people.. For.that means all kinds of people! itU<cd nn uutlinrv wr thtDivUInn oi ClirJ.lUii .^«-; K.(<«i ••nuncU «» ihc Cbtirchefc ^ t in th« U. «. A. nflt»«d by CommunHjr ' ;my skin.

McMechen, relatively unknown at ihc time of his death at the age of 69. was the man responsible for the burial of William F. (Buffa lo Bill) COdy on Colorado's Look out Mountain.

Bui she was somewhat flustered v.’hen the third child, a .^8-ounce girl, was born, and downright flab bergasted when she gave birth to the fourth child, a .53-ounce daughter.The multiple birth extended over aii hours.Like the old lady in the shoe, the Hudsons had so many children they did not know what to do-~at least as far as housing them wns concerned. So they scitled down In two big tents on the outskirts of town.“I 'suppose I’ll have to buy an other lent,*’ Hudson commented.

The clerk soon had the two oldest children fitted, but when he came to the third and smallest, that one began to cry. The child’s wailing upset the benefactor who was a bachelor. “What’s the matter with him?” he demanded of the other two. “What’s this' bov’s name?” “Please, sir,” came the quick re. sixmse, "his name’s Alice.” THEY RAISED’EM A five-year-old girl, visiting a rieighMr, was asked how many children were in her family. “Seven,” she answered. The neighbor observed that so many childre.i must cost a lot. “Oh, no,” the child replied, “we don’t buy them - we raise them.” SHE WAS THINKATIVE Mrs. Burt, a “well meaning” neighbor, kept pestering little Mar tha about being so quiet, unlike her own wild and garrulous off spring. “You don’t have much to say for a normal little girl,” she chir ped. “What’s the matter with you?

(Must have been a pretty good town.) A Mr. Green, from near Cana, was the court caller. He was a very large man, and had a voice like a fog horn. He would put his head out the upstairs window and holler, “Oh yes, oh ves. so and so come into court as you are bound,” and he could be heard all over town. Court week was also “horse trad ing” week, and the trading lot wasi always full, and something goingj on all the time. The traders and horses came in from Statesville, Salisburv, and other places. It was also the week of barbecue, when Reuben Gaither would put up his “open air” stand. The Sunny Side school (Miss Mattie Eaton and Miss Laura Cle* ment) Commencement, was also a big event in Mocksvllle for many years. This was held In May each year at the Baptist Arbor, in North Mocksvillc. The teachers and children would spend a week there preceeding the commencement, practicing the plays to be held and decorating for the occasion. The final exercises were held at night. Ir was a great week, and a great finale. Sunny Side also had a Music Department, and I remember a Miss Chamberland and Miss Julia Farrier as the two first teachers. Miss Farrier was a beautiful and lovable girl, and was wooed and won bv one of Mocks- ville's most prominent young men, Mr. Frank Sanford. Her untime ly death a few yean later cast a gloom over th . whole town. Mocksville*s first newspaper was the old Davie Times, founded by Will Mooring and John Blount. This paper had many editors, a- mong them being John Blount. Will X. Coley. Rev. I. M. Dow- num, Wm. K. Clement and T. R. Walsh. The Davie Times folded up under the ownership of Mr. .Walsh, and the press and outfit was sold to the Cooleemee Journ al, owned by ). C. ScU. My earliest recollection of the Davie Times was when Mr. Blount was the editor. He was also may* or of the town, and a great poli tician, I remember one morning Mr. Blount came down town with three green persimmons in his coat lapel. This was a token for F. M. Simmons (and I believe this was the first time Senator Sim mons ever ran for office, and he was defeated by a Negro.) How some of these Editors, that were not printers,’ever made a living I will never know, for they printed onlv two pages of the four'paue papers, and had practically no ad vertising. However, I can lemem* ber that some of them did not pay their help, and bought their liquor cheap. The first talking machine, (re cord player to you), I ever saw, was on display in Sanford's store. This was a box-like outfit, with a winding spring, and it had little rubber tubes with gadgets to in your ears, and was barely au . . ble at that. A little later Tom , Byerly, cashier of the Bank of Da vie, had a phonograph with a large funnel-shaped horn, which he would place oh a big rock out in front of the bank in the evenings, and the crowd would gather a- round to hear some of the jazz tunes of that day. “Goo*goo Eyes' was a favorite.
