Mr. Hainton It aeon of the late Peter W .H aiic ton and Mta. Hairtton of Coolee- mee Plantation. Mr. Hainton’t unde, the late Frank Hainton, of this county, served a term in the State Legislature more than a half centurv ago. It is not known to pray with success. Ont point is clear from all .'^esus* prayers, but especially from the great prayer in John 17: it is that the blessing of God rests on sincere prayer for others. They Should Know It Let us hope it is not impertinent to pass on a few thoughts suggest ed by this prayer of Christ, espe* cialty with regard to praying for other people. Intercessory prayer Jn the true sense is always un- sel^sh, though one may literally pray for other persons with a self* ish motive. For Instance, If a wom an whose husband is a candidate lOr office prays for his election, that Is praying for some one else, right enough; but maybe she is saying one word fbr him and two for herself. So an ambitious mother might pray that her child would make good to Hollywood, (—and bring home the bacon.) This is not intercessory prayer In the Christian sense. Christ’s prayer for others shows that he deeply and completely desired their highest good. But he does not offer this prayer in silonce and solitude. He prays in their hearing, they knew they were on his heart. We cannot always pray in the presence of those for whom we pray; but it does them great good to know we are carrying them on our hearts before God. No service of friend or loved one is more cherished than the simple yet sublime serv« ice of intercessory prayer.• • * ttSkoufdte for Ike Best Prayer lor others should be for the best—and this in two senses. It should be in line with God’s best purposes, and it should be for the best things. When Christ prayed in Gethsemane that the cup might pass from him, the prayer was not granted, because whai God willed would not be possible, or would not have been possible, if Christ had not been willing to drink that bitter cup to the dregs. God will not grant requests that upset his plans, no matter how earnest and appar ently right the requests may be. But prayer for others ought to be for the best things. Not that we should not pray for lesser things, ft surely is not wrong to pray th.-it mother may find her wedding ring that got lost in the laundry, or that Uncle Harry may get over his cold. But surely as we grow more mature in the Christian life we can begin to appreciate the kind of prayer that Christ offered for his friends. He did not pray there at the Last Supper for their health, long life or “prosperity." He prayed for their Inner spirits, he prayed for their unity of heart, for their vision of God. How often we pray for something to happen to our loved ones, how seldom do we pray for them! ¥^en a child lay dying of rabies, hundreds of pray ers went up for hit recovery. These were not granted. But other pray ers ware offered for his parents' faith; and thes« were granted. • • ■ Nothing You Ask— ? ^‘Nothing you ask will be de nied.'* a popular hymn says. But the Bible does not promise that. Jesus never promised it. What is promised, and what is true, is that the more our prayers harmonize with (be will of the God of Love, the more surely they will find an swer. Now we often pray for our friends, as we do for ours<Uv<>8. that Cod will help them do whnt they want to do, or get what they want to have, or get rid of what de presses or pains them. Give thf»m what they want! is our cry. (Mnny of us are too selfi.sh<.even to get that far in praying for others.* But there Is no guarantee that Oo'l will give all men. or any man. ex actly what he wants. Thi» poor world would be In a much "‘nrFf^ mess than It is, if Gcd 'r*. ed at everybody’s dJrtn-i^n best we can ask for 'ho^e we is that they may loarp to desire . what God himse?/ desires.

OPEN FORUM A minister asked me some time agoMf I had any tinderstandloe of what the unpardonable slu was, and bow anyone would commit this sin7 Jt ts tangbt sJbIdIv Id the Bible what the unpardonable sin Is. We read In Hebrew*, sixth chanter, v e i^ 4, 5. that ft Is, imt>osslble to renew any one who has had the heavens opened tinto them and partook of the world to come, and tasted of the heavenly things. Tt states such persons cru* clfy Christ afresh and put him to open shame. For Instance, John, oti the Is. land of Fatmos. had the heavens opened unto him and saw from the dawn to the end of time. If he I had dented this revelation and said |it was not true, jtist like a person llookinp at tb^ sun sbloe. and s«y It Is- total darkness; then snch a per- ^on .«fns neainst that greater kttow- ledee and commits the unpardon able slh. Or if stich a person was to behold all these visfons of eter. nity, then sav that Jesus Christ should have been crucified, that he should have suffered and been kl1> ed by the Jews because he was not th«> Christ, the Saviour of the world, then he crucifies Christ a- fresh. and puts him to open shame. Snt'h a man once havlnfif received snch eloti.^ns manlfestatldtis and Idenv it and turn aealnst the Savior, the redeemer of the world, he Is lust as etiUty as those who~*killed the tow. Now Paul who said he was tak. en up to the third heaven and heard ttn«paakahle tbfnrs which man could not utter. If he had •timed from this vision and acted a« I stated above, he then could have l>e<*ome a son of perdition. The many fjlands of Mrs. G. G.

The wood hauler is making ready to turn his work over to the ice man When one is not soak- ins us the other is. Such is life. There are not many who can become millionaires after servine for only four years at the pie counter, but once in a while such a thing docs happen. One good way to help build up your town is to purchase some building and lo in stock. If you don't want to build you’re holpinc the fellow who docs, and you eet good pay for helping. The town of Valdese, in Burke County, voted last Monday a- gainst the sale of wine and beet by a majority or more than two to one. Good for the fine cttizehship of that growing town. The merchant who sits down and waits for business to come to him these days is liable to starve to death.

We never understand the atory of the Crois when we think ot it as slm*. ply a historic event, aomething that happened once long ago, to other p eople. “Were you there ! when they cnici* fted my L o rd ?” the old song asks. Yes. but not only at C alvary—we were in the Oar* den of Gethsem* ane. we took part 1 in the b e tr a y a l.'For the betrayal Dr.Fefem ao ot Jesus by Judas is a picture ot the way each ot us. has at some time or other betrayed the Master. Judas was, not alone. » • • Ju4ot Didn'r Do MuchThe betrayal was such a tre* mendous thing, really, yet per. haps to Judas at first it did not seem like much. We wonder why Judas could ever have done such a crime, and the answer may be that Judas did not think ot it as a crime, beforehand. No doubt the men of the Ssnhedrin urged that point on him. We can imagine hearing them say: "Now. Judas, why not? We are not asking you to do anything. All we are after la one tact. Where can we find this Jesus of Naxareth after hours? Where does he spend his nights? We aren’t asking you to arrest him. or to strike him or hurt him a particle. All we want Is infor mation. What we do with tbe information. what happens after wards,—that isn’t your affair. Your Master may turn out to be quite innoccnt of all the charges going around. You'd like to see him cleared, wouldn’t you? We'll give him a trial; you surety don't object io justice being done! All we ask of you is one little thing; just tell us where to find him.” They All Forsook HimLet it be repeated; Judas was not alone. AU the apostles had sworn loyalty, and Peter in particular. But given the chance to escape from that garden, they made the most of it. We are told that they ALL forsook him and fled. Every, disciple running away into the shadows was just as truly denying Jesus as was Simon Peter there in the courtyard by the fire. Every sound of running feet grow ing fainter in the distance was just as sickening a sound as was Judas' kiss. Judas was the first traitor but none tailed to follow hla example. So it is with us. Like Judas, we don't intend to betray Jesus.—we who are Christians. Yet every sin is a turning of the back on him. Every sin is a betrayal ot trust. Every sin is the same as saying, "I do not know Jesus.” Every sin is a going over to Jesus* enemies. It is lining up with the forces that would destroy Jesus and all that he stood for. Jesus h a s. many friends in the vorld today, but he also has many enemies. And sin of every sort sim ply helps Jesus' enemies and hurts Jesus and his cause. Like Judas, we seldom realise what we are getting Into, at first. Smooth tongues can make evjl look almost benevolent. It was not hard to rope Judas in. Do we. too. make easy victims for the devlU Judos, Too Lott D. L. Moody's imaginative story tells much of the meaning ot the Cross. Christ had just told his disci* pies to preach the gospel to every creature. "To every creature?" protests Peter. "I saw a soldier cram a garland of thorns down on your forehead till It bled . . . to hlm7” "Yes,” replies Jesus' too him. Tell him that blood was shed for him. too.” “To every crea ture?” asks Peter. "I saw a soldier strike his spear into your side when you were helpless in the very moment of'death . . . preach to lOmf” “Yes.” answers the Lord, "Io him, too. Tell him there la a nearer way to my heart than that.” To every creature—yes, but not to Judas. For him it was too late. Why waa It, so many ask. that Judas was not forgiven, while Peter was? Was not Peter also a betrayar? Of course he was. But the diiTerence was that Peter came back to Jesus, but Judas never did. The Christian ehurch believes that Christ died lor our sins, and not for ours only but for the sins of the whole world. Yet there are those whom the sacrifice of Christ on the cross does net save: Christ did not save Judas, it is true. But whose was the fault?

I think It would be rather like ray first trip to Winston when I was jufit a child of seven years. Mv'fatber told me I could cn wHh him his next trio with a load of tobacco, and oh how good and smart I was. for fear he might back out, and I wouldn't get to <«e the bleeest town in the world, so far as I knew. While the trip was pending, I heard my older brother telling about the big Vad- kin River, and bow wide and deep It was. and it made me feel very fearful for a while. I got an ex citing thrill out of It when I*d think of crossing It, but I*d think. *'That great city, Winston, and Tm determined to see It.** Asthe days passed and the time drew nearer and nearer, i*d think less and less about the big river. In a few daya daddy said, **Jay, we are going to pack the wagon and start to Winston today.'* O. what a thrill, and the jov of starting on this journey waa more and Is more than I wffi ever be able to expfafn. When we got the houses hitched to the wagon and their feed packed in—^enough for fonr days, and our rations in the provision box. and I was seated on that box beside dad dy. I was as near heaven as I watt* ted to he. As we reached the last grade go ing down toward the river. I could feel somethin?. What a wonder. fil feeling. The ferryman, Mr. Naldings, saw us and- started over at once to meet us. H^ was there bv the time we got to the river, I watched him as he went about set ting us over, and that long, sllverv beaM be wore. I just couldn't think of anyone else but feaua, for I'd been seeing Hla picture on my Sunday arbool cards. I have thought of this old gentleman many times in mv life. I hone he Is reat- Ing with his elder brother Jesus, in a land where we'll never grow old.

This 30th day of March, 1954. A. T. GRANT, Commissioner. This I Remember By R. S. Meroney, Asheville, N. C. (Continued From Last Week) Just a few years ago while on a visit to Mocksville I noticed many Negroes loafing around the court house and the square. I was told that they were waiting on their relief money”, and that not a Negro in Mocksville was self-em ployed, and many of them did not care whetlier they got a job or not, as long as they could stay on the relief rolls. This was sur* prising, for after all fhe so'calted improvement of the race,” it did not seem that the Negroes were doing as well as they were forty years ago. 1 could remember when many Mocksville Negroes were self-employed, and very indepen dent. Troy Clement had the dray business in the town, wliich kept both he and his boy busy. Ban ner CHngman, Henry Woodruff, and Lewis Turner were carpenters and would work by the day or lake repair jobs or small buildings on contract. Jesse Setzer was a brick mason, and built chimneys or foundations by the day or bv contract. Peter Hjnley and Ter ry Hellard had blacksmith shops, and Hellard had a splendid small farm. Tom Lyons, Bill Gaither and Ed Hunt had barber shops for the white trade, and Chadie Brown ran a restaurant exclusive ly for the whites, and Wesley Frost had a good little shoe shop, and a number of other Mocksville Ne* groes made a good living on their own. Well, times change. Forty years ago people expected to work for a living. Today everybody loves monev, but just a lot of peo pie do not love it well enough, to work (or it, if they can get it any other way. There were never anv automo bile accidents in Mocksville or Da. vie County while I was there. Reason: There were no automo. biles. Fatal accidents that I can remember were few. lohn Wyatt was killed at the furniture factory when a piece of lumber hung on a saw and struck him in the side. Ebenezer Frost was killed when his horse becamc frightened at a pig in the roaJ and turned his buggy over. This happened right near the Mocksville town limits. Kim Gaither, a colored fellow, was killed when he fell into a vat of boiling water at the Williams ve neer plant, and a colored man, whose name 1 do not remember, was killed in a well at the home of Sheriff Jim Sheck. The rope on a bucket of rocks broke and let it fall to the bottom of the well, where this man was work ing. Jimmie Seaford was killed when his horse ran away one Sun day, a few miles from Mocksville. Quite a number of boys started the printing trade in Mocksville with the old Davie .Times, the Courier and The Record. John Ster ing (brother of Mrs. Willie Smith), was one of the first that I remember. John went to Wins ton, and was owner and editor of the Western Sentinel, semi-week ly paper, until his death. Charlie Granger started with the Times, when Crowson was editor. Char lie went 10 Charlotte, and was with the Charlotte News and the Charlotte Observer until his death. Charlie Parnell also started with the Davie Times, and at his death some years ago had been owner and editor of the Mebane Times for many years. (Continjed Next Week.)

I One of the first things that an individual, partnership, coopera* Uion, or organisation of anv kind should know before they em* ploy anyone is whether the em- ployee*s work counts toward old* age and survivors insurance under the Social Security Act. Ifitdoes, the employer has certain obliea- ’ tions. It is the employer’s obligation to * report all covered wages up to $3.- 1600 a y^at earned by each em ployee. With the exception of domestics who work in private homes and farm workers where I cash wages only are to be report- ^ ed. the value of meals or board «nd room« an npartment or house furnished the employed is consid ered as part of the reportable wages. In the case of a partner ship it should be rememi^er that the partners are not employees and should not be reported as such. However, if the business of the partnership is a covered in* dustry or busines then the part ners are selfemployed and they should report their share of the firms profits up to $3600 for self- employment ta x purposes. Of course, if the partners share of the profits is less than $400 no self employment tax return is re* quired. All types of employee compen* satioti are considered. They include salaries, fees, bonuses, and commissions. It is inmaterial whether payments are based on the hour, day, week month, y«ar, or on a piecework or percentage plan. Vacation allowances and back pay are also wages for repotting purposes. Where the wages are paid in other than money, this must be considered. The amount of tips or gratuites paid directly to an employee by a customer, is not ihe concern of the employer. The value of meals, room w d ^ representative of the Salis- board, and lodging varies in dif- Social Security ferent States.

APRIL 11. VtU Our Living Lord Lesson for April 18, 1954 TO SPEAK about Jesus as it he were simply a historical char acter is a mistake, said WUlinm Adnms Brown. When other men die, their obiluarlos cnn be written. TJiere is nothing to ndd to the tnle of ti)cir life. Bvcn in the case of the great and famous men about whom new books appear every so often, caeh biographer merely edits newly discovered material at the most. If he acids a chapter to other biographies. H Is simply the record of a chapter hitliorto un* known—but it adds notiiing new to the facts, only to men’s knowledpo of the facts. With Jesu s, as Dr. . Brown points out. the case is r](o< gether dilTcrnnt. Voti cohW not write a ‘'dfllnitivo.” a Ja.stword, biogra phy about him even today, bo- I>r. Foreman cause ho still lives and is active in the world. Jc.siis is not someone who was: that is not the whole truth. JesuB is. The messnge of Easier is not nnly that Jesus did not die forever: it Is more that lie lives forever, that ho lives now. • • • In the Church The Ciurrch is called in the Now Tesiamont the “body of Christ.” In n very real way. that is true. One contemporary theologian has piii this in a startling way. i^e says that Christ anil tlie church arc the complete Clirist. Just os a man and his body together are the com- pJete man. This may be putting it too strongly. But no thoughtful ■-Ch'risTitin 'wm deny that-without- thc church, without some church. Christ would be bodiless in this earih. Without the church he would be a “houseless wraith of deity," but with the church he has eyes, cars, hands and feet. This is not to say that any church is perfect; in the best of clnuchea Christ walks lame and spea?«s in a mur mur often hard to understand. Just as any musician w-’ulri be hamp* rrrd by a broken arm. sn Christ is hampered by broken and solf-seck- ing ciiurchcs. Yet takuit: it all In all. Christ docs live and spmk and work through his church today. He is there in the sacraments, there in the message of-truth and grace, there in the life and serv ice of every church that ministers to men in his name. In Men and WomenBut the church does not exist apart from the men anil women who arc lt.s members. «Wc mean real members, not Just people whoso names appear on the mem bership lists.) Christ lives again in every individual who loves him. is devoted to him and (to use St. Paul’s memorable words) is ••growing up in all things into Him.*' When St. Paul said, "I live, yet not 1, but Christ iiveth in me," he was saying only what countless Christians have said becauso liwy had discovered it was tnio. Chris tians less famous than Paul have known him in their lives. A man who had had a gruat deal of trou- »>le with a cer,l5iin temptation was asked one day by his pnsinr ho%v he was getting along. •'Vou know,” »h<; rnnti replied. “I used to have ;» lot i-.r bother from the devil and I ^lidn'l ahvn.vs gi't the best 'of him. But now when Satan rinRS, I just say. 'Lord Jesus, won't you answer tlie door?’ '* At the Right Hand of GodThe Apostles' Creed, which Christians in all lands know by heart, deelares that Christ “sit* teth at tiio right hand of God.” By this the church has never meant that .losus is spending eternity sitting down on n throne somewhere. Whnt we mean is that Christ is not only alive on this small planet but that ho lives and works with God. Just as in ancient limes when a king hold royal court, the seat o« his right was reserved for his most irusted and most active per sonal representative, so Christ lives on in the presence of Bternal Power today, in ways that the heavenly glory hides from our sight. We dure not guess at all what he plans and docs; but tiie Church is certain of one thing: he is praying for his pcpple. "He ever liveth to make Intercession for us." If it is a comfort to know of the prayers of any friend, how much more to know that the liv ing Lord is praying for usi So on Easter Sunday t))0 churcli sing.s— how can she help it?

Glass Has Grown From Mere Ornamenf To Valued Material NEW YORK—Men have known how to make glass for 5,000 years, yet it was only a century and a half ago that they began to learn ho\v to make the very special kind oi glass of which spectacle lenses arc made. Modern optical glasses, by aiding the eye. has probably done more to extend human knowl edge and welfare than any other single material developed by man with his own hands. In the field of science, perfected microscopes and tclescopes en able the study of bacteria and stars a million light*years from earth. As spectacle lenses, optical and ophtalmic glass corrects near sightedness. farsightedness, and astigmatism. Without tlicse lenses, few people over 50 would be able to read or do any close work easily,. It at all. For thousands of years, the art ot using glass developed in a to tally difTerent direction. In 3,000 B. C., glass was a thing ot beauty, adorning church windows, the goblets and glass jewels of me dieval craftsmen, and the aigrettes of feminine fashion. When the Romans conquered Egypt (26 B.C.) they collected a portion of their tributo In Egyptian glassware. They learned how to produce glass objects themselves, and took the art with them Into barbarous Gattl. Fi^om there it spread to the Pranks and Britons. Si>cctaclc5 wore Invented around 128B and lenses were made out ot any glass that came to hand. A big step was made in the late. 18th century, when a Swiss glass maker named GuUiand invented the process of stirring the molten glass in Its cruciblo, thus squeez ing out the bubbles and other im perfections contained in the melt. In perfect lens making today, re quirements are so strict that only about 12 pounds of usable spec tacle lenses are produced from a 600-pound melt of glass. U. S.-Red Weather War Is Possible -...WASHXNSTON^. weather war between Russia and tHe Uniled'"' States is a possibility, according to the head of a newly chosen id- visory committee to the Govern- ment on ‘^veather contr<rf.*' Howard T. Orville, a retired naval captain and meteorologist said it may some day be possible to contnd the weather over Russia by “seeding” clouds in the tJnlted States. In the event ot u “weather war.” Orville said. America should have tlte advantage. He tol'd a news conference gathering that at some time in the future it might ba possible to cause droughts or tor. rential rains over the Soviet Union, and the best Russia might bft ftble to do In return would be to cause such effects In Alaska and western Canada. The "seeding” ot clouds Is done with dry ice or silver Iodine to cause rain. Overseeding causes clouds to dissipate. Orville stressed there is yet **no scientific evidence** to back up his concept that weather might eventually be controlled at such dis tances, but that indications of suc cess in local weather control make it worthy of consideration. Reserve Defense Fleet Over 2,000 WASHINGTON -> America's De fense Reserve Fleet passed the 2.000 mark in 1053. the American Merchant Marine Institute says, reporting 2,003 vessels were at fleet sites in December. Of this number, ail but 27 are products ot World War H, when American siupyards turned out roughly equivalent to one-third of the tvorld's merchant fleet The number of ships at fleet sites in Deccmbor were increased by 20 with the return of Victory Ships which bad been operating lor the Military Sea Transportation Serv ice under General Agency Agreements with private lines. In addi tion to Ute 2,000-odd ships located at Rcscr\'c sites, the nation has an active prlvatoiy-owncd fleet num- bering 1,251 vessels. These include dry cargo and tanker ships. Some 1.513 of the ships laid up at nine National Defense Reserve Fleet sites are Liberties. 243 are Victories and ten tankers built during the last war. Tlie laid up fleets are strategically located along the nation’s Atlantic, Gulf and West Coasts. CROSMD PUULE ACROSS 1. Danger 6. Thin, briltle cookie11. Goddess of peace12. Worship , 13.

Wlieu food, shelter, and cloibiug Is involved, men seems to become alert In the full extent. We noticed In reading In Ibe synop tic gospels where Christ fed the muUitudes with a few fish and loaves of bread and took up several baskets of frugments. After all had eaten and were filled, the peo ple followed after the Lord to the extent he knew and said they came for the loaves and fishes. Tno. 6:26. We learn from the second chapter ot Acts where Ihe people grouped together tbeir possessions and bad all Ihings in common, (tbat is every one had claim upon the Church from the common store, house), and every members was ex pected to sell «rb«l they owned and turned over with tree will the pos sessions to the Church, then they bad claim npon the Chureb tor tbeir living. We find. recorded in the 5 chapter of Acts, where a man and his wife were not entirely rid ot their lufit for wealth lo the ex tent of parting freely with all of their possessions, they sold their properly and the husband Ananias, held back part of the proceeds and told Peter that was all It sold for Peter told the man he bad told lie and he would die, 'so Ibe man did die and was carried awav tor burial. Peter reminded him the wealth belonged to him and he did not have lo lie about it, but be cause he did lie he was to die. A- bout three hours later the wife, not knowing ahonl the death of her hnsband. told Peter the same lie and suffered death like her bus- hand. So Inday we have many people who sav they would like to live the same law the Chnreb lived in the time of Peter, but no doubt thev are like the huaband'and'wlfe jnsl referred to. The I.^ller Day Saints have the system of "welfare” where we are able to assist one another when dire need creeps in because of fi nancial dllBcnllles, or disaster be- ca iise of floods or drought, ^ which causes members to become desti tute. We look for this program of the Church to lead us Into com plete surrender lo the law of con secratinn or united .order, where there w'll not be rich nor poor In the Church, but all be equal In wealth, which will eleminste en. Ilrely class dislinclion among Ihe memhershin. As staled above, most men are Interesteil In the things of life. We tear for the outcome of the fntn-i' lo the extent mmv of us go lo ex treme undertakings trying to or* pare for events we antidpste.

Science Gets Set To Strike Housefly Below Ihe Belt lOS ANGELES—ScienUsts are< preparing to remove all stops in the war on the peaky housefly. A new seientmc attack will be launched to hit the little insect where it hurts him most—below the belt. The new offensive is designed to And out how the fly converts his food Into energy and cell*building material. When these tacts are ftiUy known, scientists will know exactly where and how to hit to do the most damage. It has already been discovered that the fly has pepsin in his system. This is an enzyme that helps meat*eating animals digest proteinr. Previously it was taken for granted that insects do not have pepsin.The ■ signiflcance of the pepsin discovery Is that it means there is actually less difference between flies and higher animals than pre> viously realized. If this is true, science says, (he housefly is In deed vulnerable to new and differ* ent torms ot chemical attack. tn addition to the pepsin dis covery, another scientist says that he has determined the steps by which houseflies break down car bohydrates. This involves a series ot chemical changes and science may destroy the fly by the use of a simple .substance affecting one or more of these changes. It has been realized for some time Ihat DDT and other compo nents now in use will not exterminate the fly population. Actually, scicnce doesn't even know how DDT and other chemicals work. They do know that the fly has be come increasingly resistant to these chemicals. Pigeon Mokes Safe Flight With Money JERSEY CITY, N .J.—A pub- llcity stunt, with $1,000 riding on the flight of a racing pigeon, proved a success here. Janie, a pink-toed, orange>eyed bird fluttered iiome safely after a 198 mUe flight from W ash in ^ n - a $1,000 biU taped to her leg. • If Jaiiie had landed anywhere along the route or if the biU had come loose and drifted down. :t would have been the undisputed property of anyone who found it. A tape corporation sponsored the flight to prove that it had enough confidence in the adhesive qualities of its cellophane tape to bet $1,000 that a strip ot the tape would hold out throughout the trip. The $1,000 flnders-keeps bill was considered public property during the flight, a spcrftesman said. Janie arrived at her Jersey d ty loft two hours and thirty minutes after being released from the 12th floor of a Washington hotel. Janie was released by her owner.

Long Memory Gets Overdue Check NEW YORK—A BrlUsher with a long memory found out recently that Americans are stIU as Epical as they were 30 years ago. Daniel J. Davies, now 60 and an employee of the London Elec tricity Board, came to America in 1024 and returned to England in 1933. He never forgot, however, an experience that happened shorUy after he arrived here. It lingered in his memory until he finally set down and wrote Andrew W. Mul- rain. New Yoric sanitation commis sioner and explained. Thirty years ago, shortly after arriving In America, he said, he took a Job '‘shoveling snow around Delancey Street for 10 hours at 50 coits an hour. t>ecause the Wilkes- Barze. Pa., coal mine whe're hCL worked regularly was closed by a strike; He never received his pay. Da vies said, and was accused of not being on the job. Instead of protesting. he walked away, disgusted. “Thirty years Is a long time,” he wrote, “but knowing America as I do. I wouldn't be surprised to find a letter with that sum ($5) in the mailbox one morning." Instead of instituting a costly research of department rolls. Mul- rain wrote a personal check, based on current pay for New York sanl- tationmen. It amounted to $15.. When informed • that the check was on Its way. and was three times as much as he expected, Davies exclaimed: “Juft like an American." GETTING EVEN Th« local butcher hurried into the office of the local lawyer and blurted: "If a dog steals a picce of meat from mv shop, is the owner Ha- ble?” **lndeed he is!** said the lawyer. ‘•Then you owe me three bucks for the steak vour doR just took from my place.** **Good/* said the lawyer suavely^ “My fee for advice is ten dollars* Deducting the three, you owe me only seven.** WINNING ESSAY A ninth grader "floored** tele phone folks in Texas recently with his portion of an essay en tered in a contest.

Some of the other boys that learned to set type at the same time 1 did; but who went into something else later, were Hugh Parnell. Paul Hardi son and Cecil Clement. After Sanford &. Williams to bacco factory went out of business, and before the Cooleemee cotton mill was established, Sanford’s store was the biggest business en terprise in Davie County. E. E* Hunt was the undertaker, and had a cabinet shop In the back of his hardware store, where coffins and small household fnrniture was made. Mr. L. Q. Baker wa«^ the workman in this shop for many years, and later a Mr. Betts. Mr, Henry Call had a small cabinet shop on his lot in South Mocks- ville, and W. A. Weant operated tin and copper shop, and he manufactured many stills. My dad had a harness shop, and Mr. Tim Poplin was the local shoe maker, Mr. Tommie Young had department store, and this about covcred the business census of the up-town district at that time, with the exception of the weekly news papers. After Sanford & Williams to bacco factory quit business there was no enterprise in Mocksville that employed over two men, un til the furniture factory was estab lished. This was strictly a Mocks- villti enterprise, financed and man aged by local men. Mr. Willie Smith went from boss In the to bacco factory to foreman’s job in the furniture factory. To get star ted the factory needed a few ex* perienced furniture workers, and several men were brought in from Atlanta, Ga. Among these was Mr. Marvin Waters, who was the only one to remain in Mocksville after the factory got going. Mr. Waters married one of MoiHcs- ville*s most popular young girls. Miss Geneva Nail, and settled in Mocksville, and I am happy know ihat he and his family are still enjoving life there. Tliink- ine of Mr. Waters brings back to memory wages and hours of that day. The furniture factory work ed at least ten hours per dav, and probably twelve part of the time, and wages were from seven to nine dollars per week. It was talked about town among the young fellows that Mr. Waters was getting $2 per day. and we thought this was awful big money for one man to earn. Mr. Waters was a "carver,** and therefore rat ed the extra pay. That, I figure, was 20 cents per hour, and I won der what the $2 per hour, and 40 hours per week workers today think of that?

Clemenc, Manager* Unless some thought is given to the subjoct, the average citizen may not realize that old»aise and survivors insurance, commonlv called social security, is an im* portant economic and social factor in the life of Davie county and the state and nation. The system has provided an otderly methodist through which gainfully employed people can contribute to their own security, and that of their fomilies. Benefits are related to income from work, and individual effort and initiative are rewarded. A century ago, it has been point ed out, 7 persons in 10 of the na tion’s lobor force worked in agri cultural enterprises and provided their basic necessities from the soil. Today, 3 out of 5 persons live in metropolitan areas where they work for wages with which to purchase food, clothing and shelter. While some families through cKceptional abilities or opportunities are able to provide for future needs, most of them are able only to meet current expenses At the bottom of the heap, so to speak, are 1 in every 10 families with an annual income of $1,000. In a random'Survey conducted bv the Social Security Administra tion among aged beneficiaries it was found that 87 percent had nothing or less than $50 a month p..‘r person other than social se curity benefits. Only 5 percent of the beneficiaries retired voluntar ily. And 70 percent were unable to take even part-time jobs. With* I out social security payments, the point was made, manv of these in. divtduals would have been desti> do that. See what Jejni said a- taee. and relief would have lo be bout the mii’ardonable sin: M all.'provided from general taxrevenue. 12:32; Mark 3:28; Lnfce Ia;in. In !

APRIL i21 \% i WOMAN'S WORLD VERY lew people to America con logically say they believe that revolution by force Is invari ably wrong. On the contrary, some of the most distinguished and re* spectcd Americana, both men and women, are proud of the letters “S. A. R.*’ and “D. A. R.,*' Sons and Daughters ot the American Revolution. If revolution was nl> ways wrong, then our country started on the wrong track to begin with, and we should be still a part of the British E m p ir e . (T h e question might be asked, w h eth er, that Empire would have gone ns far as it did ntid been as strong as it was. it it had not learned the lessons Dr. Foreman which only the Aincrlcan llevolu- Uon gave it. But that is another story.) The Bible tells the story of a revolution which had the full approval of a prophet of God. In fact, one of the prophets gave the chief revolutionists the idea. Prcocher Meets Rebel Prophets in ancient times were something like preachers of these times, with two important dffTer* enccs. Prophet and prcocher both speak for God to men. But the modern preacher has a church; the prophets had no established church, no chapBl- They could not so much as rent a school-room or a theatre as preachers sDmetimes have to do. The prophets had tip say their say wherever and when ever they could. There was no “regular eleven o'clock service.” The other dilTercnce was that while the modern preacher likes to have a large church full of people to preach to, the prophet of olden times did not always (perhaps not tisually) try for Inrgr crowds, but rather picked their lisieners very carefully. They would be content with an audience of one. provided the one man was the right man. So the prophoi Ahijah met a young man named Jm*<iboam alone one day. and gave him the idea that cltanged the lives nf n whole na- tion. Tearing hts long cl«ak into , a dozen strips (“Is Ihe man , prazy?*' Jeroboam must have _ thought, for tlw cloak was l^rand i new), he Invited the yonngi?r man { lo lake ten of the pieces. The ten , strips were ten '‘tribes*’ of Israel, and putting them Into Jeroboam’s i hand meant that he was to be the j leader of the revolution and sfcos- sion which would tear those tribes away from the then united nation. The preacher. In short, was invit ing and inciting rebellion and revo lution.• • • When Is RovoluHon Neccssory? It is not the ilrst time that preachcrs have been on the side of the revolutionist. In the Ameri* can revolutiun some churches, among them the Presbyterian, were so activc In promoting that revolution tliat when British soldiers searched the houses of cltl- T-ens suspected of i-evolutionary tendencies, If they found in the? house a copy of the Presbyterian hymn book or catechism, the evidence was considered sulTlcicnl to make arrests on the spot. This raises a serious question. Why i.s it that churches and preachers, wlilch are generally conservative and loach and preacii patriotism as a Christian attitude,—why is it that they have ever supported revolution, even by violence'.' Over in England a famous convention of preachers and etlier religious leadr ers in the year 1C48 wrote it into their crecd that *'lt is tlw duty of people to pray fur magistrates (they jneant the government in .^11 its branches), to honour their per sons, to obey tlieir lawful com mands, and to be subject tii thoir authority . . Yet in the very next year, 1649. some nf those same religious men took ntT the head of King Charles I. How can men who believe that obeyine laws and authority is a Christian duty, also become revolutionists?• « • For the People Revolution Is not something for every day or every gencrntion. It Is a desperate lost resort. But iir in the days of Ahijah. so since tlicii It is true that a government which ceases lo be ol the people, for the people and by the people, has foi- relied its right lo respect. The reader of I Kines will discover ii gem ot wisdom in what the old counselors said to the-young Reho. boam: "If you wUl bo a servant , to this people today and serve I them . . . then they will be yoin- servants forever." JJoliobnnm ^ turned his back on this wisdom, looked on his roysl power as a means of tyrnnny; anti so Jero boam’s revolutic.n had an easy victory.

Take stock of them, and have them chocked by a specialist in such things if you want to stay on them. Probably the Rrst bit of advice which a specialist may oiTer you is t(^ invest in some good foot wear. This may or may not como as news to you. for many people suspect when foot trouble begins that "their shoes may not be all they should. If you’re a woman and on your feet away from home or at home, then a low or cuban heel is ad vised for most of the day's work. High heels may be all right for dress, but they do throw your posture ofT, especially when you're on your. feet.

Regu lar luut care pays off in comfort as well as beauty since your figure is trimmer, your carriage more graceful and you look happy. When you shower or bathe, give your foot a scrubbing. It stimulates circulation, sciiris oOT the old skin which may h.'irdon and cause dis- contfort 'and keeps nails pink and healthy. Dry thoroughly with a rough towel. Kcet burdened with callouses and "pump bumps" may be eliminated with a daily bath of hot water and salt solution.

Mil'S have created a small upward in student numbers duringin;l3. .\ report covering statistics from Hpj'.rovcd universities and four- -••nr colleges—94 per cent of all instUutlons on regional and na- :r>nal nRRoclations’ accredited lists iivi-c.ites 1.2g4i,.^l full-time stu- -:vn;s and a grand total of 1.727.025 and part-time students. Thi.>: represents an increase of^.2 •,-i‘r cent in full-time and 1.3 per cont in grand-lotal students above lii.’>2 figures. Over a period of the Inst 20 years, public-supported in- stiiutions have gained,considerably <-vor those privately supported. Ptihlic universities last fall had r.>'o'.it 65 per cent of the full-time and about 60 per cent of the grand- total students. One factor in (he increase is that Korean War veterans have been turning to thr campus In larger numbers than expected. However, the 117.148 Korean vets in college under Public Law 550 and another 3.472 under the disability provisions of Public Law 894 are outnum bered by World War II Gl’s stiU taking courses. Evening schools on ir.c college- university level show only slight decreases on the whole, those with enrollments of more than 5,0[00 in- dicate a 4.1 per cent loss. Full-time attendance at universities located in larger cities remained virtually unchanged, although their part- time students fell 3.2 per cent be low last year. Educational leaders believe that the present trend and the increase in births in the nation will bring m.>rc significant increases in 1960 and may bring double the number of students now on campuses to colleges by 1970. most of (he money was his saviitg.s* from 30 years on his milk route.

' went an operation for appendicitis at Lone’a sanatorium, Statesville, last-week, is gettlne alons nicely her manv frimds will be glad to learn.- opfiv muM The fall of Adam and Bve iu the garden of Bden seems to be one of the most misunderstood of all avb. jects related lu the Holy Bible. I have beard men blame Adam f^r every crime known to man. When all we can find reRardlng the trans« Kresslon Is very slmole and should be easy to comprehend. So let's reason up the scripture for a few verses. The Lord told Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of life hut not to eat from the tree of know, ledee they wonld die. The ser pent was the most subtile of the tower ahimals aud he discussed the subject with Eve and she told him they could not partake of the tree of knowledge because they would die. The serpent told Eve thay would not die b jt wonld become as God, knowine eood from evil. Eve ate of the tree of knowledice (for bidden fruit), and she became a mortal woman having the same at tributes as mortal women of today, Adam was immortal like Eve had been before she ate from the tree of knowledKe. About four thousand years later the Apostle Paul wrote to his convert TImothv and refered to the fall in explalnfne that the women are subiect to the men. He wrote “For Adam was first form, ed. then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the women beine de celved was In the transKresslonl I Timothy 2:13,14. Tke reason Adam was not deceived, he re> !mt>ered well that (he first com. mondm?nt elven to him from the Lord was to be fruitful multlplv and replenish the earth, and sub. due it. Adam also fully, under, stood that both he ‘ and Eve were Immortal belnfifs and could not ful fill that (creat commandment, yet he realfzed ft must be complied with. He saw that his w|fe had transgressed and had become caps, hie of chlld.hearln^; like mortal women nf today. Adam knew t ^ t he could not live with her any more' than Immortal beins today live with we mortal people hereup on the earth. So, as Paul toM Timothy. Adam was not deceived but was in the transEresslou. In other words. Adam nartook of the fmft from the tree of knowTedge and he likewise fell and became mortal man. Then and not until then could he and Eve kMp the first commandment |^<^en to them to he fruitful, multlplv. They did become like thb sernant told Eve; havine a k*iowIed(»e of i^ood from evil. Then the Loud protected the tree of life from them lest thev should eat rrom it and be restored to immortal ll^e. Which would have still stoned them from havfnsr chlldrM becs.jse they would have haen tike Christ was after his re. surrectlon. they would have had flesh and hones bnt not blood; in other words they would have cone throueh mortality and the resitr* rection. That was not to be done because the plan called for the earth to be peopled from thia con. pie; and too we read that Christ was the Lamb slain from the foun. dation of the world. If we will read very carefully the scripture with inspiration from God^ we will find that Adam very carefully eom- Iplied with the commandments and he wall knew he had two com mandments. each dlrectinK lo dlf. ferent courses and he could not keep both; so he broke the one that would elve him a mortal body so he could he fruitful multiply, aud he did that so we, his off. springs, could have mortal lives like we have today. And it 1 the will of the Lord that he do It, because Christ had beeh slain In theory before the world waa made. IL . BENNETT. _________P urfM m N .g Do you read The Record?' Amateur 'Fixers' Expected to Boost Power Tools Sales n e w YORK— The “do It your- seir* boom is expected to boost the sales of home power tools 10 to 15 per cent In 1954. With home building still in full swing, the industry wUl have mil lions of new customers this year, with the biggest customer for elec tric tools the ‘‘amateur** who does his own work to save money. Aa industry spokesman recently said. ‘The best sellers will be basic, easy-to-use tools which do a number of jobs. For example, combination kits which convert a portable drill into a saw bench, lathe, grinder, sander, and other Implements are good Investments for the budget-minded ^man. He wants a tool to do dozens of repair jobs, not to build an expensive cabinet. There are now about 15 million portable drills in home use, com* pared with no more than 100.000 in use 16 years ago. Now, power toed manufacturers have a two- way m arket First, home owners who can not afford to hire pro fessional help, and purchase new power tools to speed their week end and evening projects. Second, previous customers who are an Important secondary market for different tools and new accessories.Manufacturers are directing their efforts to millions of owners of new basementless homes who do not have room for a large workshop and among new offerings is a portable saw carryhig case which tucks the tool away in a closet comer when not in use. can be opened into a bench stand for precision saw work, grinding and the like. A 34-piecc drill kit with attachments for buffing, sanding and other tasks hangs on the wall so that everything is to easy reach. Rescue of Man Brings Citation LEXINGTON. K y.-A 16-year- old Negro honor inmate at Ken tucky Village, who said he “was nervous" was honored recently for rescuing a man from an angry bull. The boy. David Perkins, is known as ••Tennessee.” A farm boy. he is assigned to the dairy bam. The rescued man was Vil lage dakyman Irvhie Gwinn, 56, who suffered fractured ribs and bruises when attacked by the 2,100 pound Holstein. Gwinn was attacked as be cut a tangle of wire that had caught on the bull’s leg. He managed to hold to a ring in the animal's nose, but was struck several times before Perkins reached Um. Using a Moot steel bull staff lying in the lot, the boy clamped the hook to the ring in the bull's nose and twisted until pain forced the animal to turn from Gwinn. Tlie injured man was taken to a Lexingtcm hospital where he was reported in good condition the next day. Perkins was slated to be hon ored a t a village ceremony and Village Superintendent Louis Tevell said the boy would >be recom mended for a Carnegie Hero Fuhd Commission award. Small Tdste of Red Rule Proves Unsavory ROME^A smaU taste ot lUe un der communist rule was enough to cause two enthusiastic Italian Com munists to change their way of thhikhig. Domenico Faticati and Pietro MerJino were such enthusiasts that three years ago they decided to go to Russia and enjoy the full bene fits of StaUnis. They got as far as H u n g a ry , where Communists heaved them into a concentration camp, later into a forced 'labor camp. * The Red bosses ignored the Ital- ian*a praises ot Stalin -and Communism in general. The Italian Consulate finally managed to get tiiam free and sent them home. One M 'their first-acts upon reach ing their homes was to resign f r m Italy's Communist party. HONEST CONFESSION An old bachelor surprised his friends and married.

Jes* what kind of a match did you make?** ‘•Well/* John replied, *‘I didn’t do as well as I expected.” . He paused and thought a moment. 'And to tell you the truth, I don't think she did, either.’* s u s p ic io u s A backwoods mountaineer find ing a mirror a tourist had lost, looked into it and exclaimed, ”W cll,ifitain*tm volddad!

Older Woricers WASHINGTON — Industry is making real progress in opening up more job opportunities for older workers, knowing that those over 45 have knowledge and experience ttiat can make them valued em ployees. Since 1942, nearly 4,500.000 older workers have been added to payrolls: today about 36 out of every 100 men and women worktog in factories are over 45. Nine years ago, less than 88 out ot 100.

This 30th day of March, 1954. A. T. GRANT, Commibsloner. 7%w / Remember By R. S. Meroney, Asheville, N. C. (Continued From Last Week) ^ During my early days in Wins ton I had a job giving out sample copies, and soliciting subscriptions for a weekly paper at the tobacco houses a n d public places. This allowed me much time on the streets, and I was always glad to meet up with a visitor from Mocksville. Winston had many saloons, and one of these on 4th street, near the passenger depot, was a good place to find some Mocksville citizen who had arriv ed to do some shopping or other business, or maybe j jst for **a day in the city.” One morning I went In this place and met with Mr. Jim Harbin and ''Boss’* Kim- biough. It was Christmas week, and all the saloons were serving eggnog; a big tail glass with foam on the top, and this dressed off with a sprinkling of ground gin ger. Five cents per glass was the price, and it was good. We three were together the remainder of that day and the best part of next day, and we really took in the town, going from one eggnog place to another, and downing two or three each at each stop. Wc must have reached perfection in the Mohammcd*s conception of Heaven; for we could drink and drink, vet never get enough and never get too much. Back then beer sold for 5 cents a schooner, and a schooner was a big sixteen ounce mug, and you got free cheese and crackers with a schooner of beer in the winter, and sliced tomatoes or cantelope in the summer. Today the boys are paying 25 and 30 cents for a little 12 ounce bottle of beer that makes them doped-headed, and Is not fit for a hog to drink. But when you read of these low prices don*t long for those **good old days**, for they had their draw backs. For instance, I worked a forty-eight hour week for years at $15 per week. The same work today pays over a hundred bucks for a th rty-seven and half hour week. So vou see prices and wa ges were prettv well belanced up. In fact, I am sure that we are much ahead today in the matter of merchandise and wages. When Arbuckle coffee was selling for 15 cents per pound, a man had to work about an hour to purchase a pound of coffee. Today with cof fee selling at around one dollar per pound, one can get the pound of coffee for about an half hour’s work. The world, and especially the United States, has made great progress in favor of the working man in the past halftentury. And that progress will not stop. Right now I can visualize Mocksville of 100 years from now as a town with many large and high build ings; a huge airport and hundreds of citizens flying their individual planes, and industr%* humming with atomic power, with Mocks ville workers enjoying more con veniences and pleasures in life than their forefathers ever dream ed of. Of course by that time old Joppa, or some other City of the Silent, will have long ago clos ed in on me. But 1 like to have the satisfaction of believing that 1 can look' down and think, “Oh. well it is the way I said it would be.” Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler ■ ooonoo Dick Brenegar wending his way up Nordi Main street, carrying what resembled an empty fish bait can—Mrs. Ted Junker carry • ing two double-decker cones of ice cream down Main street—Miss loan Murray on her way to den tal parlor—Mrs. Frank Fowler and Mrs. Cecil Little discussing com ing events—Mr. and Mrs. Tohn Bowden, Jr., on their way to Fire stone store—Mrs. George Row land opening box of merchandise —^Mrs. Jeff Caudell shopping a- round in Sanford’s Department Store—Jack Ward buying a few pairs of socks, in Men’s Shop— Arthur Daniel looking over new Spring suits—S.

C., APRIL 28 l«S4 llVvotUmiil Leader Who Failed Lesson for May «, 19M TT IS said that at the time of the ^ French SevolutJon there was cnc day a tremendous uproar In the streets, of Paris, and an elder* ly gentleman who had not kept up with the news, Inquired what It was. “It sounds like a revolt,’• said he. "Not H revoJt, Sire," was the reply, a revolution.” A re volt is a revolution that doesn't "click” ; a revolution is a revolt that succeeds. Yet the sueccss oC a revolution is not to be measured by what it accom plishes there and then. Only as the years so on can any m an assess a new movement, political or niiy other sort. What Dr. Foreman happened to Jeroboam's revolu tion, the one the prophet Ahl]ah had approved and authorized? Success in the First ChapterIf Jeroboam had had any ghost writers and it tliey had written U p the story ol! his politicnl coup, they could iiave. made It sound like a tremendous success. Jeroboam himself was ynunR, able, and with immense political sagacity. He was a good organister, and ho was a popular man. As a labor leader under King Solomon he knew how to deal with people and as a political exile In Egypt Tor many years what he had not learned about the ins and outs ot International politics was prob- ably not worth learning. He had Succeeded in drawing out or the original united Kinqdom of Solomon ten out of the twelve tribes that compoRcd it. Population, wealth, opportunity — everything was in his favor, plus (he basic fact that a pt*ophel of Gnd was be> hind the movement t» begin with. With Cod .ind the people on his Side, how could .Tomboam lose? FoMure in Hie Lost ChopterWhen Jcrobnam wn.s some years older, a son of hi.s lay very sick, and the king thoii‘'»'t a«:ahj ol the prnphet Ahljah wlm hjul nnop been his friend. Ahljah cmi’-'' .‘snroly tell him whether the ciiifd would live. But Jeroboam's qnocn. at Ahijah's door, met with nn wel. come. Quite the contrary: Iho old prophet cursed King Jeroboam nnd all his house. The rcvolullon which had begun with th<> bless ing of God upon it. ended by in curring the anger of God. The king who had begun with such overwhelming success ended as a failure. If the secession of the ten tribes bad proved to bo a failure, it was not that there was anything sinful in the Idea.Itself, but that the revolution had been in Jero boam's hands not a means of help ing the people but of doing them harm.• • • .. Who Made Israel to Sin."More than one writer in later times used the same standard formula for this Jeroboam. Ho is ^ callcd “,reroboam the son of Ne* i bat, who made Israel to sin." ThnJ ' is a terrible tag lo hang on a man: i that he Is the cause at u nation's i sin. But it was tmo of this man. What in particular had Jerobonm done, as King ot Israel, to "make Israel lo sin” ? His great sins wore two. but they were part of the i s.ime policy. It will be remem- ; bored that this was sliorliy aiter the time of Solomon, and the Rreat temple which Sfjlonnwi buJli was still the cenUn- of the religious life of all the twulvo tribes. When Jero boam engineered hiit revolution, ho felt it to be a danyurous tiling for ihe tompie to be In the hands of the Kingdom ot Judah up there in Jerusalem. So ho organlxed twn other religious centers, at con venient iocatJon.s. BotheJ Jn the south. Dan in the north; and In these newly appointed •‘shrine cities” be set up gold-plated calves and other animals as the gods of his people. In two ways among others, this was ruinous to right religion, and led to the decay of the nation. God Is Not Mocked 'First this involved the sin of making religion a department of the government. As King, Jero boam attempted to dictate (and only too successfully) where and how his people should worship. The priests in his shrine cities were political apimintees. Religion was subsidized by the state. But worse than that; Jernboam tied the peo ple down to a crude and cheap kind of religion. For the great in- visible God of heaven and earth (see Solomon's prayer in I Kings 8) Jeroboam substUuted ubld-plat- ed statues of hulls .»nd he-goats. Debasing rcl»«i«'i’- •'If'baFed his people.

Londoners Deplore Large Nude Statue LONDON — Modost Loniloncrs didn't approve of the new statue erected by St. James’ Hospital and appealed for removal of the work of art called "Recovery.” The statue is of a life-sized nude man holding his hands to the sky. A day after it was erect'ed, it wa.<; found to be wearing a white apron and a green overall. One woman expressed fear "that we shall get crowds of honlivans coming into the district with paint brushes, to say nothing of (lie etn- barrassment ot young girls and children.” Residents appealed to Hugh Lin- stead, member of parliament for the district, aiid the local vicar for help in getting the statue removed.

Where the farm er is concerned, two tacts are signifieant: (1) the boom in borne freezers and frozen foods increases the market poten> tial of the farmer’s crops and (3) the average farmer, who also owns a home freezer, has changed his buying habits insofar as coneems the purchase of items he does not himself produce. The consumer’s- ability to store perishables in greater quantities has to a degree lessened his buy ing resistance, at the same time offering to the farmer a challenge to improve and adapt farm prod- ucts for freezing. While modern transportation reduced the “weekly'’ trip to town for supplies to a small chore, the home freezer has elhninated all but the need for infrequent trips and the farmer now buys delicacies and perishable items that he or dinarily would not have purchased due to lack of ft*eezlng space. 117T iTQ nr> YOUR JOB PRINTING We can save you money on your ENVELOPES, LETTER HEADS, STATEMENTS, POSTERS, BILL HEADS, PACKET HEADS, Etc.

OPEN FORUM The fait of Adam and Eve in the eardett of Eden seems to be one of the most ulsanderstood of all solb. jects related In the Holy Bible. I have beard men blame Adam for every crime known to man. When all we can find regarding the trans* ffresslon Is very slmole and abonid be easy to cotnptehend. So let's reason up the scripture for a few verses. The Lord told Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of Hfc but not to eat from tbe tree of know- ledee they wonid die. The ser* pant was tbe most stibtlle of the lower ablmals and he discussed the subject with Eve and she told him they could not partake of tbe tree of knowledge becauso they would die. Tbe serpent told Eve tbair, would not die b jt would become as God, knowlne good from evil. Eve ate of tbe tree of knowlediee (tor. bidden fruit), and she became i mortal woman having the same at tributes as mortal women of todav. Adam was immortal like Ev« had Iteen before she ate from the tree of knowledcre. About four thousand years Inter the Apostle Paul wrote lo bfs convert TImothv and refered tothefallln explaining that the women are subiect to the men. He wrote **For Adam was first form, ed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the women being de celved was In the transgression I I Timothy 2:13,14. The reaaon Adam was not deceived, he re> membered well that tbe first com. mondm-snt given to him from the Lord WAS to be fruitful multiply and replenish the earth, and sob- dup it. Adam also fully under, i t ^ that both he ^ ian d '^^ wim Immortal beings and could not fut fill that great commandment, yet he realised It must be complied with. He aaw that bis wife had transgressed and bad become capa. h1«* of cblld-bearing like mortal women of today. Adnm knew that be could not live with her any more than Immortal lieiog today live with we mortal people here up* on tbe earth. So. as Paul told Timothy, Adam was not deceived but was In tbe transgression. other words, Adam partook of the fruit from the tree of knowledge and be likewise fell and became mortal man. Then and not untIt then could he nnd Eve keep the first commandment given to them to be fruitful, mnltlplv. They did become like the serpant tofd Eve; bavlner a knowledge of good from evil. Then the Load protected tbe tree of life from them lest thev ttbonid eat rrnm It and be restored to immortal li^e. Which would have still stoned them trom having children hern ise they wnuld have haen like Christ was after his re. surrectlon. they would have bad Amateur 'Fixers' flesh nnd hones but not hlood; In other words they would have gooe through mortalllv and the resnr» rectlon. That was not to be done t>ecsuse the plan called for the earth to he peopled from this con. pie; and too we read that Christ was the Lamb slain trom the foun. dntiori of the world. If we will read very carefuUv the acrlpture with Insfirfratlon from God. we will find that Adam very carefully com piled with the commandments and he wall knew he had two com mandments. each directing lo dif. ferent conrses and be could not keep bnih; so he broke the one that would give him a mortal body so he could he fruitful ’multiply, and he did that so we. his off. springs, could have mortal lives like we hnve today. And it tbe will of the l^ rd that he do It. because Christ had beeh slain In theory before the world waa made. T. L.

Small Taste of Red Rule Proves Unsavory ROME—A small taste ot life un der Communist rule was enough to cause two enthusiastic Italian Com munists to change their way of thinking. Domenico Faticati and Pietro Merlbio were such enthusiasts that three years ago they decidcd to go to RuMia and enjoy tbe full bene fits of Stalinls. They got as far as H u n g a ry , where Communists heaved them into a concentration camp, later into a forced labor camp. Tbe Red bosses ignored the It.*)!- ian*s praises of Stalin and Com munism in general. The Italian Consulate finally managed to get them free and sent them home.

Five cents per glass was the price, and U was good. We three were together the remainder of that day and the best part of next day, and we really took in the town, going ’ from one eggnog place to another, and downing two or three each at each stop, We must have reached perfection in the Mohammed’s conception of Heaven; for we could drink and drink, yet never get enough and never get too much. Back then beer sold for 5 cents a schooner, and a schooner was a big sixteen ounce mug, and you got free cheese and crackers with a schoofier of.beer.in the '.winter, and sliced'^omatbcs-K>r i^ntelbi^ in the summer. Today the boys are paying 25 and 30 cents for little 12 ounce botde of beer that makes them doped-h^aded, and is not fit for a hog to drink. But when you read of these low prices don’t long for those **good old days**, for they had their draw backs. For instance, 1 worked forty-eight hour week for years at $15 per week. The same work today pays over a hundred bucks for a th rtv'scven and half hour week. So vou see prices and wa’ ges were prettv well belanccd up. In fact, I am sure that we are much ahead today in, the matter oi merchandise and wages. When Arbuckle cofiee was selling for 15 ccnts per pound, a man had to work about an hour to purchase a pound of coffee. Today with cof fee selling at around one dollar per pound, one can get tl\e pound of coffee for about an half hour's work. The world, and especially the United States, has made great progress In fovor of the working man in the past half century. And that progress will not stop. Right now I can visuajize Mocksville of 100 years from now as a town ivith manv large and high build ings; a huge airport and hundreds of cirisens flying their individual planes, and industry humming with atomic power, with Mocks* vilic workers enjoying more con veniences and pleasures in life than their forefathers ever dream cd of. Of coursc by that time old Joppa, or some other City of the SiletU. will tiave long ago clos cd in on me.

Our County And Social Security By Louis H. Clement, Manager. A birth certificate is not the only evidence of age acceptable to the Social Security Administration as proof of an applicant's age. Ac this time, wc shall consider other types of evidence necessary to successfully complete an appli cation for various social security benefits. When a widow files an applica tion for monthly payments on her deceased husband’s wage record we must submit proof of her age and proof of her marriage to the deceased worker. If, the widow had a ceremonial titarriagc, but lost her marriage cer tificate of the marriage may be had upon application to courthouse where the license was issued. If. the widow was not married ceremonially to the worker, but lived in \vith him in a common law relationship in some jurisdic tion where such relationship had legal validity, to establish the mar tial state, then proof of the com mon-law marriage must be sub mitred to the Social Security Ad ministration. The Social Security will recog nise, for benefit purposes, a com mon-law marriage if such a mar riage IS recognized in the jurisdic tion in w'hich it was consummated. Proof of such a relationship would consist of affidavits of per sons who knew that the parties held themselves out to rhe public as husband and wife. Also, docu mentary evidence, such as join- deeds to property, joint bank ac counts, insurance policies desig- nattng “husband” or “wife” as beneficiary, and other joint busi ness dealings, may be submitted. When an application is filed on the basis of active military service in World War II, or the Korean War, the veterans active service record or his Honorable Discharge papers must be submitted. The veteran cannot be given social se curity credits until proof of his active militarv service has been submitted to the Social Security Admini«itration.

I•I' THE DAVIE RGCORD, H0CK3VIU.E N. C.. APRIL 28 l«B4 t i S S f f l l M E Leader Who Failed Lesson for May 2, 19S4 TT IS said that at the time of the ^ French Revolulloti there was one day a tremendous uproftr In the streets, of Pnris, and an cider* ly ficntlcman who had not kept up with the news, Inquired what it was. "It sounds like a revolt,*’ said he. ‘'Not a revolt. Sire," was the reply, “—a revolution.” A re volt is a revolution tbat doesn't "click"; n revolution is a revolt that succeeds. Yet the success of a revolution is not i to be mensui'cd by what U nccorA* pushes there and then. Only as the years bo on can any man assess n new movement, political or nn>* other sort. Whnt l>r. Foreman happened to Jeroboam's revolu* tion, the one the prophet Ahljah had approved and authorized? Success in the First Chapter If Jeroboam had had any ghost writers and if they had written up the story of his political coup, they could have made it soun^ like a tremendous success. Jero* boam himself was young, able, and wUh immense political sagacity. Ho was a go«l organizer, nnd he was a popular man. As a labor leader under King Solomon he know hnw to deni wilh people and as a political exile In Kgypt for many years whnt ho had not learned about the ins and outs of Intcmntional politics was prob ably not worth JcnrnJng. Ho had succendcd in drawing out ot the original united Kingdom of Solo mon ten out of tlie twelve tribes that composed It. Population, wealth, oppoi*(unity — ei'crylhlng was in his favor, plus the basic fact Ihnt a prophet nf God was be hind the mnvemont to bpgln with. With God and tho people on his side, how CPtild •rerolioam lose?■ « «Failure in the La<;t Chapter When Jeroboam was some years older, a son nf his Uiy very sick, and the king thnu>*h( airain of (ho prophet Ahljah who Imd on?e been his friend. Ahijah Cf»iilri surely tell him whether tho clili i would live. But Jeroboam’s qttpon. at Ahljah’s doar. met with no wel come. Quite the contrary: tho old prophet cursed King Jeroboam nnd all his house. The revolution which had begun with Iho blessing of God upon It. ended by In curring the anger of God. The king who had begun wilh such overwhelming success ended as a failure. If the secession of the ton tribes had proved to be a faihu-e, it was not that there was anything sinful in the Idea itself, but that the revolution had been In Jero boam's hands not a means of help ing the people but of doing them harm. " , . Who Made Israel to Sin "More than one writer In later times used tliu same standard 1 formula for this Jeroboam. Ho is called “.Tcrobonm the sun of Ne- bat, who made Israel to sin.’' Thai is a tcri'ible tag to hang on a man: that he Is tlve cause nf n nation's .<?in. But it was ti-u« of this man. What in particular had Jeroboam done, as King of Israel, to "make Israel to sin” ? His great Sins wore iwn. but they were part of the • snme policy. It will bu remem- } bered th.'\t thla was shortly after ' the lime of Solomon, and the great temple which Solitmun built was still the eenter of the religious life of all the twelve tribes. When Jero boam engineered his revolution, he felt it to be a dangerous thing for the temple to be In the hands of the Kingdom of Judah up there In Jerusalem. So he organized two other religious centers, ot con venient iocoUoiw. Bethel in Ujo south, Dan in the north; and in these newly nppointed "shrine cities" he set up gold-plated calves and other animals as the gods of his people. In two ways among others, this was ruinous to right religion, and led to the decay of the nation. God Is Not Mocked First this involved the sin of making religion a department of the government. As King, Jeroboam attempted to dictate (and only too successfully^ where and how his people should worship. The priests In his shrine cities were political appointees. Religion was subsidized hy the stale. But worse than that: Jeroboam tied the i>eo- pie down to a crude and cheap kind of religion. For the great In visible God of heaven and earth (see Solomon’s prayer in I Kings 8) Jeroboam substituted gold-plat ed statues of bu’Is nnd he-gnats. Debasing reli/'i'^. 'm fJ.’ljased his people.

Where the farmer is concerned, two facts are significant: (1> the boom In home freezers and frozen foods increases the market poten tial of the farmer’s crops and (2) the average farmer, who also owns a home freezer, has changed his buying habits insofar as conecma the purchase of items he does not himself pro The constmier’s ability to store perishables In. greater quantities has to a degree lessened his buy ing* resistance, at the same time offering to the farmer a challenge to improve and adapt farm products for freezing.

OPEN FORUM The fall of Adam and Eve la tbe garden of Eden seems to be one of the most misuoderstood of all jects related lu the Holy tilble. 1 have beard men blame Adatn for every crime known to mao. When all we can find regarding the trans* gression Is very slmnle and should be. easy to comprehend. So let's reason up tbe scripture for a few verses. The Lord told Adam and Eve to eat from tbe tr« of life but not to eat from the tree of know, ledge they wonld die. Tbe ser* pant was tbe most subtile of the lower ahlmals and he discussed tbe subject with Eve and she told bii they could not partake of the. tree of knowledge becauso they would die. . The serpent told Eve thay wonld not die b jt would become as God, knowing good from evil. Eve ate of the tree of knowledge (tor. bidden fruit), and she became a mortal woman having the same at tributes as mortal women of today. Adam was Immortal like Eve bad lieen before she ate from the tree of knowledge. About four thousand years later tbe Apostle Paul wrote to his convert Timothy and refered to tbe fall in explaining tbat tbe women are subiect to the men. He wrote ‘*For Adam was first form ed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the women being de ceived was in tbe transgression! I Timothy 2:13,14. The reason Adam was not deceived, he re membered well tbat tbe first com. mondm-»nt given to him from - tbe Lord was to be fruitful muttlplv and replenish tbe earth, and aub. Aw It.. :Adam^ also, ittny_^nnder:. stood that both he and Eve were immortal beings and could not fal GIT tbat great commandment^ yet he realixed it must be compiled with- He saw that his wife bad transgressed and bad become eapa. hie of child-bearing like mortal women of today. Adam knew tbat be conld not live with her any more than Immortal being today live with we mortal people here up* on the earth. So, aa Paul told Timothy, Adam was 'not deceived but was In the transgresstoo. In other words, Adam nartook of the fruit from the tree of knowledge and be likewise fell and became a mortal man. Then and not until then could he and Eve keep the first commandment given to them to he frnltfnl. mnltlplv. They dM become like the serpant told Eve; having a knowledge of good from evil. Then the Load protected the tree of life from them lest they should' eat rrom It and he restored to immortal life. Which would have still stoned them from having children heca ts« they would have bsen like Christ waa after bis re. snrrection, they would have bad flesh and hones but not blood; in other words they would have gone through mortality and the resnr* rectlon. That was not to be done becanse the ptan called for the earth to he peopled from this cou ple; and too we read that Christ was tbe Lamb slain from the foun. dntlon of the world. If we will read very carefullv the scripture with Inspiration from God. we will find that Adam very carefully com piled with the commandments and he W9ll knew be bad two com mandments. each directing in dif. ferent eonrsea and be could not k^D both; so he broke tbe one tbat wonld give him a mortal body so he could be fruitful mnltlplv. aud he did that so we. his off springs. conld have mortal lives like we bnve today. And It waa the will of the Lord that he do It, because Christ bad beeh slain tn theory before the world waa made. I. L. BENNETT. _________Duiham N. C. Do you read The Record? Amateur 'Fixers' Expeded to Boost Power Tools Sales NEW YORK— The “do It your- «ir* boom is expected to boost • the sales of home power tools 10 to 16 per cent in 1954. With home building stUl in lull swing, the industry will have mil* Hons of new customers thts year, with the biggest customer for electric tools the “amateur” who does his own work to save money. An Industry spokesman recenUy said. "The best sellers will be basic, easy-to-use tools which do a number of jobs. For example, combination kits which convert a portable drill mto a saw bench, lathe, grinder, sander, and other implements are good investments for the budget-minded man. He wants a tool to do dozens of repair Jobs, not to build an expensive cabinet.’* There are now about 15 million portable drills in home use. com pared with no more than 100,000 In use 15 years ago. Now, power tool manufacturers have a two- way market. First, home owners who can not afford to hire pro fessional help and purchase new power tools to speed their week- ' end and evening projects. Second, previous customers who are an Important secondary market for 'different tools and new accessories. Manufacturers are directing their efforto to millions of owners of new basemehtless homes who do not have room fop a large workshop and among new offerings is a portable saw carrying ease which tucks the tool away in a closet corner when not in use. can be opened into a bench stand for precision saw work, grinding and tho like. A 34-piece drill kit with attachments for buffing, sanding and other tasks hangs on the wall so that everything is In easy reach. Rescue of Mon Brings Citation - LEXINGTON, Ky.—A 16-year- old Negro honor Inmate at Ken tucky ^nilage, who said he "was nei:vous“ was honored recenUy for rescuing a man from an angry bull. The boy. David Perkins, is known as “Tennossee." A farm boy, he is assigned to the dairy bam. The rescued man was Vil lage dairyman Irvine Gwinn, 56, wbo suffered fractured ribs and bruises when attacked by tbe 2,100 pound Holstein. Gwinn was attacked as he cut a tangle of wire that had caught on the bull's leg. He managed to bold to a ring in the animal's nose, but was struck several times before Perkins reached him. Using a 4>foot steel bull staff lying in the lot, ihe boy clamped the hook to tbe ring in the bull's nose and twisted until pain forced tbe animal to turn from Gwinn. The injured man was taken to a Lexington hospital where he was reported in good condition the next day. Perkins was slated to be hon ored at a village ceremony and Vil> lage Superintendent Louis Tevell said the t>oy would be recom mended for a Carnegie Hero Fund Cwnmission award. NUMBER 39 HONEST CX5NFESS10N f An old bachelor surprised his ftiends and married. A few weeks later the bridegroom was visiting among his former companions when one of them asked; lohn, tell us about this marry- in’ business. Jes’ what kind of a match did vou make?" "Well,” John replied, “I didn't oas well as I expected.” He aused and thought a moment. 'And to tell you the truth, I don’t think she did, either."

Ne ver knew he had his picture took.” He then sneaked into his home and hid the mirror in the attic. But his slyness did not escapc the eve of his suspicious wife.

Domenico Faticatl and Pietro Merlino were such enthusiasts that three years ago they decided to go to Jiussia and enjoy the full bene fits of Stalinls. They got as far as H u n g a ry , where Communists heaved them into a concentration camp, later into a forced labor camp. The Red bosses ignored the Ital-j ian's praises of Stalin and Communism in general. The Italian Consulate finally managed to get them free and sent them home.

Sbice 1942, nearly 4,f older workers have been ad payrolls: today about 36 j every 100 men and women v In factories are over 45. Nil'* ago, less than 32 out ot 10\ I (Continued From Last Week) During my early days in Wins ton I had a job giving out sample copies, and soliciting subscriptions for a weekly paper at the tobacco warehouses a n d public places. This allowed me much time on the streets, and I was always glad to meet up with a visitor from Mocksville. Winston had many saloons, and one of these on 4th street, near the passenger depot, was a good place to find some Mocksville citizen who had arriv ed to do some shopping or other business, or mavbe jjst for "a day in the city.” One morning 1 went in this place and met with Mr. Jim Harbin and "Boss" Kim* biough. It was Christmas week, and all tlie saloons were serving eggnog; a big tall glass with foam on the top, and i4iis dressed off with a sprinkling of ground gin ger. Five cents per glass was the price, and it was good. We three were together the remainder of that day and the best part of next day, and we ready took in the town, going from one eggnog placc to another, and downing two or three each at each stop. Wc must have reached perfection in the Mohammed's conception of Heaven; for we could drink and drink, vet never get enough and never get too much. Back dicn beer sold for 5 cents a schooner, and a schooner was a big sixteen ounce mug, and you got free cheese and crackers with a schqoner.of ben in the winter, and sliced-tomato^o^-'CanteJopQ In the summer. Today the boys are paying 25' and 30 cents for a little 12 ounce bottle of beer that makes them doped-headed, and is not fit for a hog to drink. But when vou read of these low prices don’t long for those **good old days”, for they had their draw, backs. For instance, 1 worked a forty-cigKt hour week for years at $15 per week. The same work today pays over a hundred bucks for a th rtV'Scvcn and half hour week. So vou see prices and wa- ges were pretty well belanced up. In fact, 1 am sure that we are much ahead today in the matter of merchandise and wages. When ^iiiArbuckle coDee was selling for 15 "<v.ccnts per pound, a man had to jj* .work about an hour to purchase a /;„’lipound of coffee. Today with cof- jfee selling at around one dollar per pound, one can get the pound of coffee for about an half hour's work. The world, and especially the United States, has made great progress in favor of the working man in the past half century. And that progress will not stop. Right now I can visualize Mocksville of 100 years from now as a town with manv large and high build ings; a huge airport and hundreds of citizens flying their individual planes, and industry humming with atomic power, ‘ with Mocks- ville workers enjoying more con veniences and pleasures in life than their forefathers ever dream ed of. Of coursc bv that time old Joppa, or some other City of the Silent, will have long ago clos ,ed in on me. But I like to have ic satisfaction of believing that I {can look down and think, “Oh, :ll it is the way I said it would Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambier. 000000 Dick Brenegar wending his way up North Main street, carrying what rMembled an empty fish bait can—Mrs. Ted Junker carry ing two double-decker cones of ice cream down Main street'-Miss loan Murray on her way to den tal parlor—Mrs. Frank Fowler and Mrs. Cecil Little discussing com ing events—Mr. and Mrs. Tohn Bowden, Jr., on their way to Fire stone store^Mrs. George Row* land opening box of merchsmdise —Mrs. Jeff.

A birth certificate is not the only evidence of age acceptable to the Social Security Administration as proof of an applicant's age. , At this time, wc shall consider other types ot evidence necessary to successfully complete an appli cation for various social security benefits. When a widow files an applica tion for monthly payments on her deceased husband^s wage record we must submit proof of her age and proof of her marriage to the deceased worker. If, the widow had a ceremonial marriage, but lost her marriage cer tificate of the marriage may be had upon application to courthouse where the licw*nse was issued. If, the widow was not married ceremonially to the worker, but lived in with him in a common law relationship in some jurlsd'C' tion where such relationship haB legal yalidity, to establish the mar tial state, then proof of the com- mon-law marriage must be sub mitted to the Social Security Ad ministration. The Social Security will recos* nlze, for benefit purposes, a com mon-law marriage If such a niar* riage is recognized in the jurisdic tion in which it w,is consummated. Proof of such a relationship would consist of affidavits of per sons who knew that the parties held themselves out to the public as husband and wife. Also, docu mentary evidence, such as join- deeds to property, joint bank ac counts, insurance policies desig nating “husband” or "wife” as beneficiary, and other joint busi ness dealings, may be submitted. When an application is filed on the basis of active military scrvice in World War II, or the Korean War, the veterans active service record or his Honorable Discharge papers must be submitted. The veteran cannot be given social se-* curity credits until proof of his; active mllitarv service has been' submitted to die Social Security Admif\istration.

APRIL 28 IM4 Leader Who Faileil Lesson lor May 2, MM TT IS said that at the time of tbc French Revolution there was one day a tremendous uproar in the streets, ot Paris, and an elder* ly gentleman who had not kept up with the 'news, inquired what it was. “It sounds like a r<tvoIt," said he. "Not a revolt, Sire," was the reply, “—a revolution." A re volt is a revolution that doesn’t ’ ‘'click” ; a revolution is a revolt that succeeds. Yet the success of a revolution is not to be measured by what it accom* plishes there and then. Only as the years go on cnn any man assess a new movement, political or nny other sort. What Dr. Foreman happened to Jeroboam's revolu* tion, the one the prophet Ahijah had approved and authorized? Success in the First ChapterIf Jeroboam had had any ghost writers and if they had written up the story of his political coup, they could have made it sound like a tremendous success. Jeroboam himself was younx, able, and with Immense political sat^acity. He was a good organizer, and he was a popular man. As o labor leader under King; Solomon he knew how to deal with people and as a polilica] exile In Egypt ior . many years what he had not learned about the Ins and outs of inteniatlonal polilics was prob ably not worth learning. He had succeeded in drawing out of the original united Kingdom of Soln* mon ten out of the twelve tribes ••••-that-••comf>D5«V -It-........BJipulatUin.... wealth, opportunity — everything was In his favor, phis the basic fact that a prophet of God wns be hind the movement to begin with. With God and the people on his side, how could Jcrobonm lose? Failure in the Last Chapter When Jcrobonm was some years older, a son of his lay very sick, and the king llioii'^lil again of Uie prophet Ahijnh who hart once been his friend. Ahijnh nuilri ssnrely lell him whether the upil.i would live. But Jeroboam's qiioon. at Ahijah'8 door, met with no wel come. Quite the contrary: ihc old prophet cursed King Jcrohonm and all his house. The rrvojution which had begun with the bless ing ol God upon It. ended by Incurring the anger of God. The king who had begun with such overwhelming success ended as a failure. If the secession of the ten tribes had proved to be a failure, it was not that there was anything sinful in the idea itself, but that the revolution hod been in .Tern- beam’s hands not a means of help ing the people but of doing them harm. .. Who Made Israel to Sin."More than one writer in later times used the same standard formula for this Jeroboam. He is callcd "Joroboam the son of Ne- bat, who made Israel to sin." Thai is a terrible tag to hang on a man; that he is the cause of a nation's sin. But It was true of this man. What in particular had Jeroboam done, as King of Israel, to “make Israel to sin'*? His great sins were two. but they were purt of the same policy. It will be remem- bcrefi that this was shortly after the time of Solomon, and the great temple which Solomon built was still the center of the »x*ligious life of all the twelve tribes. When Jero boam enuiiiucred his revolution, he felt it to be a dangerous thing for the temple to be In the hands of the ivingdom of Judah up there in Jerusalem. So ho organized two other religious centers, at con venient locations. Bethel in the south. Dan in the north; and in those newly appointed “shrine cities" he set up gold-plated calves and other animals as the gods of his ijeople. In two ways among others, this was ruinous to right religion, and led to the decay of the nation. ^ , . God Is Not MockedFirst this involved the sin of making religion a department of the government. As King, Jero boam attempted to dictate (and only too successfully) where and how his people should worship. The priests in his shrine cities were political appointees. Religion was . subsidized by the state. But worse than that: Jeroboam tied the peo- pie down to a crude and clieap kind of religion. For the great In visible God of heaven and earth (see Solomon's prayer in I Kings 8) Joroboam substituted gold-plat ed statues of hull.*; and he-fioats. Debasing rel!- ‘‘ n. r>'based his peopJe.

NEW MOIUnr iOB YOUR OLD nmcs * W*MT M Food Buying Habits A sales Increase of 700 per cent In home food freezers and about 260 per cent in frozen foods since World War II points to definite changei in the food buying and eating habits of the nation. Where the larm er is concerned, two facts are significant: (1) the boom hi home freezers and frozen foods increases the market potential of the larmer'fl crops and (2) the average farmer, who also owns a hdme freezer, has changed his buying habits insofar as concerns the purchase of items he does not himself produce. The consiuner’s ability to store perishables in greater quantities has to a degree lessened his buying resistance, at the. same time offering to the farmer a challenge to Improve and adapt farm prod ucts for freezing. While modern transportation re- .duced the “weekly" trip to town for supplies to a small chore, the home freezer has eliminated all but the need for infrequent trips and the farmer now buys delicacies and perishable items that he or dinarily would not have purchased due to lack of freezing sppre.

Fitzgerald bad an article on the above subject, and I wish to take them just a little farther. Let*a turn to tbe last chapter of Revelations, 19th verse. **And If any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy God shall take away his part ottt of the book of life and out of the holy city/' Now many times In my sbort life have I heard many preacben preach. **tbere Is no eternal bell, or everlasting ounlsbment ** Please tell me, preachers. Is not this tak. log away from the words of God’s prophecy? And what kind of an eternal home does a man like that have? Tf a man has no part In that holy city, and his name has been erased from the book of life, has he not committed the unpardonable sin? I have only named one scrip, ture, but I have heard many of them denied. A preacher who will missonstrue or misrepresent tbe holy scriptures on purpose. Is bel). bound, or I don't know anything about the Bible. Please do not misunderstand me and think I do not like the preachers of the k o s* pel, for I do, and 1 wouldn't want to be here without them, but we have so many that will not preacb and teach the whole council of God.

' Martin was walking along with his wife when he encountered an unpleasant situation. He was un able to Introduce his wife to the man who spoke so pleasantly. The face was very familiar, but he couldn't, remember the name. The mystery was cleared when he met the man the next morning In the big ofllce building where both worked. He was A. H. Bosh- wJt, a kmg'tima elevator acquaintance-one of those people you see quite often and make polite smwll talk, but never learn their name. The two men discussed the situ ation and decided something ought to be done to help people in office buildings get better acquainted. Martin suggested everybody in the building get together for a picnic. They talked the plan over with others in the building and met with enthusiastic response Practically everyone who worked in the building turned out, with their famUies. It’s now the friendliest building in town. Smart Folks Ploy TOLEDO, Spain—The mayor of the town of Navalcan is out to swing compulsory education. In order to attend parties and dances, Ihe mayor has decreed, townspeople must be able to read and write, thus banning illiterates from such festivities.

Cause of Odor Not Show—But a Guest STORRS, Conn.—The audience watching a movie In the Unlver- slty of Connecticut's Agricultural Auditorium might not have agreed on exactly how good or bad the show was. but all knew a distinct odor was present. Only the janitor knew that an un invited guest had slyly slipped Into the auditorium. The Janitor had found the visito^—a skunk—behind a radiator in the darkened hall. He couldn’t get him out. All went well until the heat was turned on. Then a strange smell began to drift through the auditorium. The Janitor turned the heat down and crossed his fingers. Tiie skunk remahied quietly behind the radiator throughout the show and must have enjoyed it. He didn't use his strongest criticism.The audience might have t>ecn cold, but certainly not as uncom fortable as they might hava been. SILENCE NOT GOLDEN Ladv—^Painter, l*m paying you by the hour.

S. Meroney, Asheville, N. C. (Continued From Last Week) The year that Kitchen, Horne and Craige put on a battle for the nomination for Governor, the De mocratic convention was held at Charlotte, and Mr. Jones attend ed. Returninc home he came to the newspaper oliice'and gave me a first-hand report on the affair. “It was no placc for a good Dem> ocrat, or honest man, said Mr. Jones. “Whisky and money had more Influence than honesty and fair dealing.” Tliis convention was a dead-lock for several days. Home finally dropped out of the running, and Kitclicn and Craige battled to the bitter end. Kitch en finally got the nomination by political maneuver in which Craige was promised the nomina tion for the next term. Conven tions like this were what destroy ed the old Convention system of nominations, and brought the pri mary system into being. Mr. Jones went to Florida on account of his health, and died there vear or so afterwards. There were two “big nights” in Mocksville which I know will be well remembered by those fortu nate enough to be alive today who were at Mocksville at that time. The first was the night the Bank of Duvie was robbed (or an at tempt made at robbery). This was probably about 1902, as it was before the Kellv Hotel burn ed, and that happened on the night of December 14. 1904* The yeggmen were discovered in the miaare sffmeoTO DEVOUT PRIESTESS She-'-How do Gert and Sam get along since they are married?

Bverly and Mr. Jim McGuire, rooming in an annex to the Kelly Hotel, were the fii«t persons to get to the sccne, and they opened fire with shotgun and rifle on the robbers, who returned the fire. By that time several others had joined these, and It was a young battle for several minutes. Mr. McGuire and several others w.:re firing from around the comer of the old court house. One of the robber’s bul lets cut the corner from a brick, on line with Mr. McGuire’s head and knoclced brick dust in his eves. So far as it is known, no one was hit. but it got too hot for the robbers and thev took off. These yeggs had arrived a t Mocksvitic by railroad hand-Icver car from the direction of Winston, but were cut off from this retreat, so took the other direction out of town on foor. The ne.>ct day pos* ses were organized, and the search was on, but the trail was soon lost and die hunt given up. After some weeks two of ihese men were captured after a /tough gun battle with the police /in the railroad yard at Monroe,-' N. C They were brought to Mpcksville and placed in jail. The leader was an old fellow by the name of Lang, and it came out thjit he was an old professional safe blower, and had served more than half his life In prison, mostiv in the state of Ohio. His partner was young fellow by the name of Wil. son, and was a Canadian. There were probably ritrce men taking part In the safe«crack.ng, but as remember, the abov« two were all that were capturcd. They jim mied the bank vault with tools I thev swiped from a local black smith shop. The safe was open ed by drilling holes in the top.
