CORINTH. Well the second Sunday in May has come and cone and we are one week n arer the end of our journey here in this world. We sure did hear a pood old time sermon preached l>v our dear old broth r (' >chran from Mathew 16-18, Thou are Peter and upon this rock I will build my church and the pates of hell shall not prevail again? it. There was a large crowd pres ent in spite of the cold wind that was blow inp. Nearly everybody is becom ing alarmed because Ibis c> !d weather is killinir nearly all the cotton that is up, and some tv port their corn kill and ;u'd ♦he vegetables in their yardmr- ; killed so it begins to look like the Lord is not pleased, so I think it is time f >r us to be, n to see what is the cause. I be lieve it is because the people have became exalted anti the Lord is going t:> show ns what he can do for us and we can’t help ourselves. We can only ask him to have mercy on us and do for us that we can’t do for ourselves. I ,>ften think of what the poet :d,sh w pity Lord o Lord forgive that is what we will have to ask of him that is controlling the heavens because he has power to shut heaven that it rain not. So v 'u. are you willing to do, humble yourselves, or be stout hearted and go on and be pun': lied. May be that death and and sG u- tion is just before us new.

BRANDYWINE. “I am the vine; ye are the branches.” Think about a million people in Georgia who do not attend Sunday school, yet there are a great many who live only a few miles from one. Are you one of the million? I’m going to get me some hooks and go fishing for submarines. I’ll bait them with beer. Have you ever poured out the last of that little “booze” you had on hand when the “bone dry” law was passed? I have four grasses and one cotton up now. This cold wea ther is killing the cotton but is iot bothering the grass. Do you really believe that God is in this great war? Of course, He will get His name glorified, but could have been glorified much more by world peace. Who is responsible for all the people who are being murder er! in this great war? God said “Thou shalt not kill.” You’d have to get on a pretty high bo xto hide behind some we see now. Womens’ dresses and shoes are still going up. Rev. J. H.
