of the Roman province and the cen
ter of government and commerce. Its
population, Greek. Roman. Jewish
nnd Oriental. Seat of the great Isth
mian games which attracted multi
tudes. even more than do our modern
football and baseball. The city no
torious even In a heathen world for
Its drunkenness and sensuality. Were
not the Christian converts from such
heathenism In great danger of relaps
ing into Its evils? Remember they
had no Bible, no New Testament.
Paul writes to them to warn anil to
Instruct them. Read how he founded
the church there—Acta 18:1-4, He
was there eighteen months: the
church had In It a few Jews, but more
who had been heathen. Chapter 12:2.
Paul had written a letter before this
one. See 5:9—not now extant. This
letter was written from Ephesus.
Note: The subscription In the King
James version is not Inspired nor a
part ot Paul’s letter Itself. The let
ter deals with a great variety of sub
jects. It contains the great chapter
on the Resurrection. Which Is that?
Now come to the verses In tomor
row's lesson. Think long and pray
erfully on the first two verses: chap
ter 0:19-20. Stop on the separate
pltrases—Your body, a temple of the
Holy Spirit. Ye are not your own.
Ye were bought with a prlcp. Glorify
God In yottr body. Can It bo excusa
ble, then, to Injure the body by any
form of self-indulgence?
Arts 9:24-26. The racers In the gieat
annual games at Corinth practiced
stlf-eontrol in order to win the races
Do not our baseball players train for
their games? Paul says much more
should a Christian "cut out" every in
dulgence that would hinder his Chris
tian usefulness. Is It right to Injure
tho nervous system by stimulants? Or
the general health by over-eating, or
over-work, or over-anxiety for any
worldly gain?
Verses 26 snd 27. Paul compares
himself to one of theae runners, or
contestants In the games. He must
not Indulge himself, nor let his body
lead him Into sin.
Galatians 6:7. All personal experi
ence. all history and all great liters-1
Hire teach the same thing. A unlver-1
sal truth.
Verse 8. Which harvest would a
wise man choose?
It mav not be amiss, in conclusion,
to recall to the minds of some read
ers who remember 0r. James Morris,
who some years 6lnce was a pastor
In Athens. Ills preaching, his man
ner, the very tones of Ills voice, sug
gested what the human personality
may become under the molding power
of the Holy Spirit. A child said that
Dr. Morris made her think of Jesus.

Mill Mary Anne Ltpacomb, at Lucy
The people of Clarke County have much to expect In.the future from
the Legionnaires here. They are young men, they have been tried veritably
ii> the “firei.” They "carried on” when the days were darkeet and brought
back the light of joy and happlneaa to our homes.. They have asked but
little as citizene since the day they threw off the khaki and donned their
civilian clothea again. In fact, some of ua thought they have been too
modeat and perhaps a little bit unappreciative of the bit of acclaim accorded
them on different occasions. But now they have apoken, and characterlatlq
of the manner in which they “served," it la not for themselves, but fog
others. *■ WefWWh*
The men of the Allen Fleming Pott of the American Legion aiked th$
people of Clarke County to contribute $3,600 to • fund to maintain the Red
Cross in Athena during the current year. They thought two days enough
to ralee this money. They did not believe It neceeaary to atop their work
and go to see every person in the city and county and aak them to give
to this fund. It wet known that a campaign would have, to be waged buf
for not more than two days anywsy.
BUT THIS CAMPAIGN HAS NOT BORNE THE FRUITS EXPECTED,
THE PEOPLE ARE NOT RESPONDING AS THEY 8HOULD. IF THEY
WANT TO GIVE THEY ARE WAITING TO BE SEEN. THEY WANT TO
BE"DRAFTED"AND NOT VOLUNTEERS.
There Is certainly no honor In lagging In the call of the American Legion
for the Red Croes fund. It should only be necessary to announce to whonl
checks are to be sent for the small amount needed to be raised. Certainly
Athene la net jolng to deny the first “call to service" on the part of the cIL
Izent these heroes have made.
e Come on, let'e have this fund for the Red Croat put over in true Athene
style. Large amounts have not been asked for but the smell ones have come
In too sjow.
Get in touch with Fleetwood Lanier at Erwin and Company; Frank Miller
at Lawrence and Miller, In the Holman Building; Will L. Erwin at Erwin
Erwin and Nix, In the Mutual Building, with your contribution today. Give
What you carf. If It isn’t but a dime—and give It cheerfully, like the men
who are receiving It will smile and thank you, becauie again they are doing
something for home—and country. *

Newspapers First
The person who buys a newspaper
every day—and at least one member
of every reading family does—spends
more money In a year on that Item
than he does on any other .regularly
printed publication.
He spends more on his newspaper
because It Is worth more to him. If
It cost him ten times as much, he
would still buy It—or if it were priced
beyond his means he would arrange
to borrow It from hla neighbor.
He would have It because without
It he would be at a disadvantage
among his neighbors and competitors,
He would not know what waa going
on. He would be left standing still
while "the world and hla wife” kept
moving on.
When a medium of Information Is
so close to the people, when It Is so
vital to them. Is It any wonder that
the columns of the newspaper are
such a potent plage to advertise?
Is It any wonder that newspaper
advertising brings remits In good sea
sons or bail?
