BIBLE THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
HONOR ANDLIFE—“Ye shall
fear every man his mother, and his
father, and keep my Sabbaths; I am
the Lord your God.” Lev. 19:3
It does not hurt to dwell now and
then on the good things we need and
must have, but let those who would
build a greater Qeorgia remember
just now that: a stock-taking of the
good: things. we have and the pre
sentation of these will mean more
rapld progress. It is only human tc
wapt to. locate among people who
baye, an enthusiasm which makes
thgm‘ real boosters.
Uge that stamp on your stationery
when you get a chance—that stamp
which tells the world that the city
of: Cordele and the county of Crisp
have approved at the ballot box the
proylsion In the Georgia laws giving
néw industries a five year tax ex
cmbtmn period. Get one now and ad
vertise your city and county. Do that
and ‘there will be less time for un
vfayorable comment.
‘Dr Andrew M. Soule says there is
100 much unfavorable criticiem ol
the state. He tells a large truth. Re.
verge 'progri«m that will bring us a
utegt chorus of boosting will bring
fihe ‘rebults on all sides. This state
must be concered about added ag
ricdltiiral and industrial wealth—the
great army of good citizens who can
hflf us to grow in this direction.
Ow is worthy of all we can have

wonderful state to sell to the outside
world. Find the good things and
rpend your time telling them.

We think our rural schools have an

by piling up reports of poor school
attendance in the winter months, bu

TREMBLING CHRISTIAN LEGS
We do not endorse the movement
‘n this country to force the denomi
national colleges and universities to
‘sign up” and choose as to whether
hey will go the route of the modern
ist or the fundamentalist, The youth
of the land should be given the bald,
cold facts, modernist and fundament.
alist to the contrary notwithstanding,
The truth never has hurt the chris
tian cause. We do not think it ever
will. To hamstring, string halt, hog
tie and muzzle an instructor is to des
troy his usefulness and to confess the
fear that the christian cause cannot
stand on its. own foundations, That
is weakness confessed,
The trembling legs of those who
have to stand for Christ is our great
‘est handicap in the advancement olf
‘he christian cause. Old Paul, naver
.rembled, never feared—and he had
‘ssues and problems to meet. He met
them with the greatest devotion and
‘aith that has possessed a human soul
since the days of Jesus. Today uulli
—two thousand years since he tolledi
ind suffered aud taught—he is teach
ing the way of life eternal— polming‘
mén te christian honor and courage,
We think he will go on through the
Iges on this same mission till the
day of the Great Dispensation. |
These little props and pledges ot'
small-calibre saints of thig day and
qour are enough to cause the world
:0 wonder if christianity will do for
the living—for those who turn toward
the great beyond relying upon the
principles advanced by the Great
Teacher. When somebody seeks to
get a pledge at any college or uni
versity, the young student there nat
urally must turn and ask what it is
all about. The question will not down
—why {is it necessary to bring in ar
tificial ties anq restrictions?
We speak for one—college life
never could have unfolded so much
of the truth to us had anything in the
search for the truth been forbidden.
The modernist is a dangerous inter
loper coming with sheep's clothing,
because he spreads an alarm-—a false
alarm. If the history of {hi! past in
ity vast maze of revelations doesn’t
disclose christianity as the greatest
beacon light on the rocks of the dark
and stormy deep, then we have miss
‘ed. all worth while interpretations of
"Its meaning. If the natural world
doesn’t reveal the handiwork of the
Creator in whatever avenue of sci
ence one may take in his hunt for
the truth, then all our calculations are
upset and we hove been following a
‘alse reasoning.
But somehow we have found satis
factory answer in our search for the
truth. Somehow, | along the way,
college lifte answered our questions
with brighter hopes, stronger faith,
and today we would have done with
the noise of the modernist, the funda
mentalist. The alarmist is the poor
fellow who is in danger. It is his
laith—his christian assurance—which
s gone glimmering. Who will take
him by the arm and lead him back to
the sure way—the road to his greater
'aith and usefulness?
OUR PUBLIC HEALTH
1t has not been so very long ago
that out public health was a matter
of no concern to us. If we should
make honest confessions today, we
might have to say that our public
health is still of little concern to us.
The average person—even those who
suffer year in and year out from a
lack of the simple knowledge of the
principles of good health—is hard to
waken to the importance of good
health conditions.
We find ourselves far behing in
health programs and then are so
ashamed of it that we dare not men
tion the subject, But the day has
rome when we must take up the fight
‘or public health. That hour is here
because we want to develop indus
trially and we cannot do so without
a definite health program that will
eliminate malaria and typhoid.
It is going to take more attention
to our public health than we have
heretofore been disposed to give,
Crisp county must make definite
plans to wipe out malaria and ty
phoid. We must do that with little.
