RANDOM NOTES
I
By Old Caesa,'.
Mrs. J. W. Anglin is slowly im
proving from a two months’ attack
of cold and fever.
It was a great pleasure to us to
meet with some of our old true
friends last Saturday, among whom
were Messrs. Cosby, Houston of Lu
cile and Hodges of Cedar Springs.
Mr. H. H. Crimsley turned over a
new leaf in politics and could he get
a patent on this little stunt, he
would have no use for any office.
In the next go round four years hence
will find every candidate a lone pe
destrian seeking the dear people.
Look at him. No wonder he is
the most popular man, a young god,
that's what he is, wdth the midnight
hair, the pink flush on his cheeks
and that manly way of his. What
a wonderful leading man he would
make, fearless, firm, loving, sincere,
tender and a lover of right and jus
tice.
We can not write much, as we are
nurse, cook, dish washer and every
thing pertaining to the sick room,
cook room, horse, hogs, cats, dog and
chickens. The great wonder is, how
does the woman manage to pulL
through with so much all the time.
But we are thankful.

"And He said unto them, render
therefore unto Caesar the things
which be Caesar’s, and unto God thd
things which be God’s.” —Luke 20:25.
We can by reading this chapter
see those he was speaking to and
the leading topics of their day. But
we leaj) from A. D. 33 to 1925 —a
good span to jump, 1881 years. Now,
let us see in part what he meant. I
contend this: That he wanted each
one then and now' to have what
was and is due them.
Some Credits.
Every eating and wearing material
as well as the buildings our people
have made and will make out of what
our good Father has given them is
what the world is today, and many of
us are so ungrateful as not to credit
each one for his or her good efforts.
First, look at our farmers. They
make what we have to eat and to
wear, and many of them fail to get
credit for their hard licks.
See the Doctor as he goes, cold,
hot, wet or dry, efify or night. He
wears a smile, hard hit as the
case may be, and yet we curse him.
See the school teachers. Their la
bors are not any too pleasant.
See the housewife as she hurries
things up in the home, trying to
make Rome pleasant. She never gets
her credit.
Yonder sits the banker who looks
well to the interest on deposits. He
is cursed, too. Here comes the wash
erwoman and Henry Ford with their
bills. They keep our clothes clean
and ride us nearly to death. They
get their part of the cursing, too.
And here comes the parson, with a
good word at home, on the street or
in the pulpit. He gets his part of
the cursing.
And the editor who gives us out
the news has his, too.
Why Is This?
We fail to give credit to each one.
That was what Jesus meant. Render
unto each one what is due them and
to God what is due Him, for He
gives everything to us that we have,
our life, our breath, our all and all,
to make and to beautify this world
in which we live.
Listen to Him.
"He giveth to all life and breath and
all things, for in Him we live and
have our being.”—Acts 17:25-28.
“Who maketh the clouds His char
iot, who walketh upon the wings of
the wind.” —Psalms 104:3.
“I am Alpha and Omega, the first
and the last.”
‘‘Render unto me what belongs to
me."
“I walked in the midst of seven
golden candlesticks, and I am alive
for ever more and have the keys of
hell and death.”-—Rev. 1:11-13-18.
“Be thou faithful and I will give
you a crown of life.” —Rev. 3:10.
“I have trodden the winepress
alone, and 1 looked and there was
none to help.”—lsaiah 63:3-5.
"Will you render unto me that
which belongs to me? I am the life
and the way and the truth.” —John
14:0.
So we will give credit to whom
credit is due, and in so doing we
will carry out the plan that Jesus
had in the text.

FERTILIZER FOR PROFIT
Fertilizers for cotton must furnish readily available plant-food to give
the plant a quick, strong start on the boll-weevil. They must fur
nish at the proper time throughout the season the right kind of
plant-food to set and mature a large number of bolls—to pay the
expense of making a crop and a good profit.
Swift’s Red Steer Fertilizers for cotton are made from carefully select
ed raw materials, so combined and so thoroughly processed and
cured that each plant gets its full share of plant-food. Back of
every bag are years of experience and the fifty-year-old Swift
reputation for making each Swift product the best of its kind.
\
Come in and let us help you select the analyses of Swift’s Red Steer
Fertilizers for your crop.
