: activities in
and around the Mocksville High
School, so well written by Lynda
Crawiord, it brings back memories
of my school daw at the old
Mocksvil e Academy.
I will never forget the time when
Fred Anderson agreed to sav,
"Good morning, Professor,'* in
Latin,, to Prof. Downum. Yes*
Fred fell for that old gag, hook,
line and sinker. What Fred actu
ally said to Prof. Downum was
'Tm a fool, Professor,” in Latin.
So when Pcof; Downum said to
Fred, *‘Ye«. you look like it.” Fred
realized he had b«.en tricked. 1
guess I am putting the cart before
the horse though in the story.
When Prof. Downum came to
teach school in Mocksvilje in 1900,
one of the first things he did was
to organize a Latin class. He was
a great lover of Latin and could
speak it fluendy. 1 can't recall the
names of all those' who were' in
the Latin class* but I do remem
ber some. There was Fred An>
derson, lohn Sanford, Harold Ear
ly, Walter Call and Robert Wood<
ruff. My memory feils me . there.
Anyhow. Fred Anderson never
seemed to depend on himself to
learn his Latin. lessons. He was
thenci W. 20.18 chs. to a stake on whole in the discretion of the un
■a»eof Highway, thence N. 42 dersigo?J.

How to Ropont
U ssoii for JaUHfttr IS. 19N
f \N C E upon a time, so the »tory
goes, there w as a young m an
who had just come to a chutvh'as
their preacher. He was barely out
ol the sem inary, and his note>
books and his head were well
filled. He started out one Sunday
m orning with a sermon on Re*
pentance. He analyzed the. mean*
ins of the word, he traced It
through Scripture, he esfamined
it th e o lo g ic a l? * ------------------------
and psyehologict
ly,—in short, 1
laid down the Do
trine ol Rcper
ance, as he hid
been ta u g h t i
When he sat dow .
an old m inister In
the congregation
got to his feet and
up to the pulpit Forem an
as fast as he could m ake it
••Young m an,” he said, *‘you quit
just before you got to the point. You told these people what re*
pentance is: now stand up there and tell ’em to repent!"
SybtlHutn In R«|witaiiM
So. nothing in this column
should be taken to m ean that
knowing what repentance is, can
be a substitute for repenting.
Knowing what Ashing is is not
Ashing; knowing what a doctor
does will not m ake one a doctor.
So knowing what repentance is,
is not repenting. And still it helps.
You can't flsh i( you’ve no idea
what "Ashing” m eans.- You can't
be a doclor if you don’t know what
doctors do. Some people never
really repent, only because they
have got into the habit of doing
something else they call repent*
ing, but is not really that at all.
R opcnunce is not just being sorry
for something you have done. You
m ay be sorry for the wrong rea*
son,—because you have been
found out. o r.. because your sin
has caused you trouble, or l>e>'
cM se your pride in yourself has
been dented. Repentance is being
sorry but it is m ore than that.
R epenunce In the Bible sense of
the word alM is m ore than re*
gretting particular sins. 1 m ay be
truly sorry I was harsh to a
loved one; but next day I n u y be
just as harsh and unkind. The
harshness and unktodness are
symptoms, they are not the dift*
case; I nc«d to repent of what it
is In. m e that causes roe to mis*
treat others.
RtMntanet It ehMclit 111 Mlil
Don’t let any one tell you that
Christians do not need to re p m t
Only those who argue that Christ's
com m ands are not for lu can sup*
pose ^ t repentance is not our
own duty. As for Paul, he m ade it
about as plain as words can m ake
it: God calls on all m en every*
where to repent (Acts 17:30). Be*
ware of "Bible studenU” who
try to evade the plain teaching
of Jesus. He certainly taught re*
pentance as well as faith. Now
the Greek word used to translsts
Jesus' word (which no doubt was
in Aram aic, the language of'Pal*
estine in those days) Is “me*
tanoeo” which literally m eans to
change the mind. This is m uch
deeper than changing your mind
about what to take at a cafeteria
or when to .do the washing. It
m eans, as Jesus' whole teaching
shows, that total change of out*
' look.'oloving what one hated, hat* ing what one loved,— which
changes the whole person from
within. What Is the center ol your
llfo? Is It yourself? Then no mat*
te r iu>w m any sins you m ay re*
gret having com m itt^, you have
not repented In Jesus’ sense of
the word. Your life m ust be shift
ed over from love of y o u rse U to
love of God and .your neighbor.
Repentance is the outworking of
the new birth. A person who pro*
fesses to have been bom again
but who still looks at life,from a
self-centered standpoint, has prob*
.ably not been bom again. Re
pentance. in this deep and real
sense of a radical change in at
titude, aim s and desires, is not
so m e^ n g you can do in a flash
and be done' with forever. In 2
P eter 3:9 (a little book w ritten to
Christians) it is said the Lord
wishes all to. ’*reach repentance. ”
It is actually a conttnulnc life
long process.

OWENS is extrem ely popu
lar in H ilicrest He owns a big
barn where the stock shows play
eadk sum m er. He even serves cof
fee and sandwiches to hts "guests"
they in to watch <me of
the shows. The truth is that Mr.
Owens is a lonely old m an who.,
likes to surround him self with hap*
py people.
Several years ago today, when
Christm as cheer abounded and
glowing parlor windows warm ed
the hearts ot passersby, M r, Owens
w as lonelier than usual. He bad
not even set up a tree that year;
w hat good w as a trae without
someone to adm ire it?
Christm as Eve, and M r. Owens
strolled down M ain Street alone,
peering into the few shop win*
dowa that w ere still lighted. In
fr<mt the ten*cent rtore he saw
young Jim lU rder. Jim was watch, ing the U ^ ts go out with an ex.
pressloa dism ay or bis fredded face. . V'—
eao’t be that bad. m y boy.'* the m an said kindly.
Jim tried to sm ile when be saw
M r; Owens. **tVa bad enough, r u
sure catch it from m om when I get
hom e. She sent m e out to buy some
Christm as-tree ornam ents."
**Tree o rn am ents? A t th is ho u rr***Yes sir. L ast sum m er we had s
.M gM ir
fire in the woodshed.** explained
Jim , '‘nothing , serious. , but our
Christm as stuff was destroyed. We
forgot aU about it untU we set the
tree up this morning.”
"And you waited until now. to
buy ornam ents?"
**That's just it,'* groaned Jim
" I left home over an hour ago. It's
lust that—well. I’ve been looking
In store windows—and—"
Problem Solvad
**I understand." said M r. Owens
with a twinkle In his eye. "Used
to do the sam e thing when I was a
lad. Never could figure out w l^
clocks were invented. Say, l*ve got
an Idea! I have some old oraa*.
m ents—"
"You have?'* cMed Jim eagerly.
"On second ttiought," M r. Owens
went on, "I don’t think they'd do. •
Too old. m ost of them , with
cracked sides and hairpins stuck
in their tops. Had one box ot good
ones, but I stepped on i t “
Jim didn't smile. He look miser*
able.
"W aitr* cried Mr. Owens, laying
a hand on the boy’s shoulder. "I've
go iti You’ll have your Christmas-
tree ornam ents yet."
. With Jim H arder striding hope*
fully beside him. Mr. Owens set
off at a brisk trot that belled his
years. A happy sm ile played upon
the wrinkled face. He w as doing
someone a favor at Christm as; he
w as part of the scene. He Joined
Jim In a chorus of ‘White Christ,
m as.'
Hiding flo M
When they reached his place be
surprised Jim by taking the path. ■
that led to the bam . The boy fol
lowed. Once inside, he gr<q»ed
around imti) he located an old 1^
tern.
After squeeztog b e t w ^ dusty '
props they reached a huge chest.
Mr. Owens puUed out*a draw er to
reveal several dozen brightly col*
o r ^ balla: '
• "W owl- They're perfectl" cried Jim . "W hat are they?" •
’ M r. Ownes laughed. *'Ut*s see
now; those plastic ones are plums,:
and those press^^paper ones are
^ oranges. This other draw er is f ^
of stars: It’s all part of the seen,
ery. t do hope you'll bring them
back .after the holidays.'* s
" I sure wiUI** prom ised Jim w ith.
a blg’grin.
It was outside church the next .
morning that Jim approached him
breathlessly: “We got turicey, and
you're going to get a drum stick.
Mr. Owens)":
"Me? Now Jim , you n ee d n 't-’*.
M rs. H arder cam e up.. ’*1 a s k ^
Jim to invite you to dlim er,^ she
.explained. “Besides, you w»ist see
our beautiful orange covered
C hristm as tree. Or would you rath*
er spend C hristm as Day in that
big. lonely house of yours?"
Mr; Owens couldn’t think of a
single reason for not going, “f—I

Farm operators who figure their
farm income on a calendar year
basis will be paving social security
Isxea on their selfemplovment In-
come for the first time between
Tantiary I and April 16,1956; The
payment of social security taxes
net earnings from operating a
form ia compulsory, provided the
net eamlnra amount to $400 or
more during the year.
The farrh operator who had net
earnings from fanning o f S400 or
more in 1955 should first inske
sure that he has adequate recorda
hla farm income and. expenses
for the year. Next, he should get
social security account number
from his nearest social security of-
Gee if he does not already have
one. If he has had a number but
lost It. he should apply for a du
plicate number. This should be
done soon to avoid the last min
ute rush, since -the number will
have to be shown on his income
tax return.
Even though the farm operator
mav not make enough to have to
pay income taxes, he will still need
file an income lax return in or
der to pay his sticial security taxes.
Social security taxes ate paid on
net earnings of *400 ot more be-
i.e taking off for personal ex
emptlons. For example, a married farm operator whose net earnings
were SI .000 in 1955 would not
owe any income taxea, since he Is
allowed $1400 personal exemp*
tlons, $600 for himself and $600
Cor his wife. In this <a^. how
ever, h^ would pay the social se
curitytaxon $1,000. A recently
issued firee booklet, "How Social
Security Covera Farmers," outlin
ing the details of this new law at
applies to faim operators, can
be secured by getting in touch
with the Salisbury Social Security
Office, located 301 Post Office

U O W can we teU w hether a per-
son iB a Christian or hott Is
there anything th at m arks all
C hristians? There Js faitii. of
course; but only God can see laith
itselL Jesus said: “By th e ^ fruits
y e shall know them .” W hat kind
of “fruits'* should we look for, in
others<iand in our*
selv es^ to s e e
w h e th e r w e a r e
Christians? Only
• God is the final
Judge. We should
not be too <]utck
to say brashly, " I
know . . B etter
say, ‘*t have good
reason to believe . So, w hat Dr. Forem an
are'-the good reasons for believ*
ing that a person is a Christian?
Sticking to our one chapter in
Luke to r this week, we can take
note of three m arks of a Chris>
tian, th at is, of Jesus* followers,
those w ho.take his word a s Jn
order. They sound quite simple
and ordinary; w hat Is exlraordin*
ary, what is specially Christian
about tliem» is the thoroughgoing
quality Jesus expects.
Three m arks which we can read*
ily see suggested, in this chapter
oC sayings of our Lord, are: Help«
fulness, hum ility, and honesty.
Everyday qualities, aren't they?
In fact, you can't get along with*
out them in ti\e civilized world.
Nobody likes a m an who brags all
the time..Nobody likes a m an who
never lends a hand to anybody
in trouble. Kobody likes a m an who
can’t be trusted. Helpfulness. hu>
miUty and honesty are not. in
thcmsclvos specially Christian at
titudes. Jesus certainly did not in>
vent these' qualities. They are
found am ong people ot m any religions and of no religion. What
Jesus did was to dem and an ex
traordinary high degree of these
everyday virtues. F irst, as to
hdpfulnes?: Not only In the words
quoted in Luke 14 but In m any
other ways and places, Jesus em<
phasizes how far his friends are
cxpected (o go. M ost people are
willing to helpf others, if tt Isn’t
l>other8omc or expensive. Jesus'
idea of helpftUness was of some*
tWng quite costly, something that
calls for elTort. scif'sacriflce. Help* tuineaa as he sees it is not just
doing something for somebody
who will do as m uch for you. It
m eans doing for people who never
can pay you back. You can’t Ike
sure you are helpful as C hrist was
unless you are willing, as he was, ^
to put out m ore for others than,
you are going to get back.
We aU expect hum ility from
other people, and we even practice
It ourselves, In the form of cour
tesy, F or courtesy is a form of
humility.—"A fter youl*' “Please."
“ Thank you,” "Pardon m e." and
the lUce. are hum ble expressions,
when you come to think of it. B ut
Jesus expects H is disciples to ,b e
hum ble and not just to talk hum
ble. A re you a Christian at this
point? A few questions are In
order, to ask yourselt Am I al
ways thinking that other p e ^ le
don’t appreciate m e? Am I a Ut»
tie sore because I don't get the
prom otions I deserve? When I
say. ’’What’s he got that I haven’t
got?” Do 1 feel a Uttle peevish,
as If th e answ er I expect is *’Noth«
tag” ? Have I often been able to
forget m y own Interests on be
half of others? One of the m ost
strllcing stories about Jesus Js told
by John, who records that Jesus,
"’’knowing h e cam e from God and
' w as going to God,” leok a towel
and did the ’'m enial” service that
every one of his disciples v a s too
proud to do. The highest is the
• hum blest.

Holding the spotlight for one
big occasion last. week, was the
basketball game played at Ad
vance Friday, /annarv ISth. The
Farmington girls’ team was handi-
c«pped because
watds Carolyn Boger, had a sprain
ed knee. In spite of this, howev
er, the Blue Devils m anag^ to
play a very exciting game. The final score was: Advance 41, Farm
ington 24. Marie Absher was our
highest scorer with 13 points and
Camilla Jarvis was not far behind with 9 points. (
The boys’ game was really ex
citing During the first half of the game the scores were tied over and over again. The hard-playing
Blue Devils missed a cnnsiderable
number of foul shots, putting the
Advance Panthers in the lead. Both te.ms played very well, and ' the game proved to be one of the
most exciting ones of the season.
The final score was: Advance 48,
Farmington 28. lohnnv McBride and Leonard Shelton led the Blue Devils in scoring.

Every patient in an alcoholic

anything p la ii^ . It is that God
does not despise or hate lost per*

GOOD OLD DAYS
((^ntinued From Laat-Week)
The. recent 'death' ofj Attorney
lacob Stewart, who Ifved to be 96
vftars old. reminds me that moat of
the people I knew In D«<de
tr^ balf a reoturjr^ago, haw
over tbe river. Thinking back
throngb tbe years I can retnenber
sii.h men as Alex 'Ballc*, C A.
Hartman, C..C. Bailey, Herbert

Kimbrough, A. T. Grant, Sr.,

Howard, Pleas Hanes, Drs. James
McGuire and B. C. Clement,
South Grant, Peter Green. Gaston
White, D. A, Lnwery aod manv
other .mil-known citizens of the
county.
When I csme to Davie County
iqoo there_ were' three livery
stabtes here and one or two trade
atables. South Grant owned a Hv.
ry stable on' Deimt atreet where
the Mocksvllle Lshndry Is now lo
cated Ellis Swicegodd bsd a llv
ery and trade stable where the fire
Is now located, and M. D.
Brown & Son operated a livery
stable Just south ot where Ssnfbrd

old Brown stable la still standing.
Mr. Swiceiood would bny a car

ponies, crowds would gather a-
round tbe fence to watch the
“ breaking” proceas going on. It
dangerous business trying to
ride tbe ponies, and Mr. Swiee.
.received minor Injtirlea on
many occasions.
Walter Clethent also operate : a

would buy car lo^a of Tenues^

Ing cbeese'‘and smoking Vliginl*
Cheroots. The small cigara were
packed .In a paper cation and aold
at igc a csrton. I think there five
Cheroots to the package. One day
I met Mr Zlenent cominii down
Main'sireet from tbe home of hia
. Wra. Jolla Heltmao. I told
him that I bad e bunch of circna
tickets fo r Hagenback-Wallace
rtahows which would exhibit tbe
next day In Saliabnrv. I told him
