PAID IN FULL
While wintering in Thomasville
some twenty-five years ago, the late
Mark Hanna in comimny with time
millionaire friends visited the local
colored church. The sermon was in
full swing when they arrived, and not
wishing to attract overmuch attention
these men of affairs seated themselves
unobtrusively on the hack bench.
Alas, for human whims! They were
observed by the pastor, who immediate
ly began to draw (for the benefit of
his membership presumably) a realis
tic picture of the church's finances. One
by one he enumerated their deficits,
and last, but not least, the sad condi
tion of arrears into which the pastor’s
salary had fallen.
“Now, brethren, whilst our minds
an’ hearts is on de subjec', we mought
as well tak' up de collection. Be ex
librul ez you kin, breddren!” he ex
horted. and, as an afterthought. “I
notice our white Men’s is wid us.”
Two woolly-headed pillars of the
church, with hats extended, began the
rites of the offering. Few and far be
tween were the coins deposited, and
no one seemed to Ik* embarrassed at the
omission. Interest was in abeysauce.
Necks were unbelievably elastic. Fi
nally the collector reach the “big four,"
each of whom dropped in a SIOO bill.
The hats were returned to the altar,
where they were turned inside out.
The pastor counted the coins hurried
ly. but smoothed out the banknotes
with infinite care, incredulity strug
gling with eyesight. A beatific smile
broke over tiie ebony features as the
shrewdest pastor in Georgia stuffed
the bills greedily into his pocket and
to his expectant flock spoke thus:
“Niggers, I’se happy to announce to
you dat, Tanks to our white breddren,
yore pastor’s salary am paid!”

WEEKLY LETTER
In Mark 12:17.
“Render unto Caesar the things which
are Caesar’s and unto God the things
which are God's.”
Now many people, who rant for the
Master and belabor themselves much
to get you to pay a tribute to God,
things which are earthly and soon pass
away.
'The tribute you owe to God is not
money nor valuable if so men could
buy their way into heaven.
The tribute God wants is your love,
service and obedience to his will. The
tribute a ruler wants is earthly and it
is cash, coin, currency, or its equiva
lent, and this we should pay him. In
Dent. I find “Thou shalt rear and serve
the Lord.
Ist. Chronicles: “Serve him with a
perfect heart" and other sections of
the bible I find “by love serve one an
other. Ye serve the Lord Christ. Turn
from idols to serve God. They served
him in the temple. Serving God day
and night.” These are tributes of ser
vice.
Now as to love: “Love the Lord thy
God. Love mercy, love your enemies.
If ye love me keep my commandments,
love on another.
These are commanded tributes of
man to God.
Now let us think of obedience as a
tribute. Be obedient to his voice. If
obedient you shall eat good of the land.
Blessed are you if you obey the Lord.
To obey is better than sacrifice. Amend
your ways and obey. Obey God rather
than man. By faith Abraham obeyed
God. These are a few of the tributes
you are to pay to God. Not money for
he says in Isaiah. He rendered with
out money. In Matthew, Jesus paid
tribute to the ruler in coin money.
In Acts 8:20: Thy money perish with
thee.
Now if God wished a tribute in mon
ey he would not have made an expres
sion like this. Love of money is the
root of all evil. Then this great pow
er —money —for which preachers beg,
pass around a container each service
in order that they may be in posses
sion of more of his “root of all evil."
If your parents have a chill and love
it as you should you will give to it of
your bounty wi bout the begging. If
you love your Master as you should no
collection at church service is neces
sary; you will act quickly and give of
your love, service and obedience to
God’s will and commands, less the
preacher’s persuasion,
j Money an earthly commercial com
modity made to pass on and if you pass
jit on to a preacher he has the pleasure
of saying who shall pass it on. If you
put it where the greater good can be
accomplished you have made a good
choice. I have never been able to lind
a -single line in the bible where money
held influence in obtaining in any mail
er an easier entrance to the Anal hour
You may own your millions and spend
them and go to a woeful place. One
bible character was told to sell his
riches and give to the poor. He did
not say put it in the church treasury.
| If money was of as much value in
saving souls as we would think, some
men seem to think, what a pity our
miuts don’t run day and night. Any
scarce metal may become a money. One
time tobacco was the chrrency, and
what would you think if money was
made of tobacco. How much of this
lilthy weed do you suppose our preach
ers would like to place before the Lord?
The Lord don’t want it; lie is not look
ing for it and you need not expect to
pay tribute to God with any such tri
fles as gold, silver, diamonds uor auy
j thing of a worldly nature.
The average preacher of today says
about as much about money every time
| lie preaches as Christ did in his whole
career.
Now, do not get it into your head
that I oppose the use ot money. Asa
church you need money and you have
stewards or a finance committee, so
leave such matters to them and attend
to these matters in your business hours.
Unburden your pastor with the
thought of money. Let his whole time
be given to the study of the word that
he may be well prepared to give a
new thought each time he stands be
fore you.
If we go to church and hear the
same feeble story and frazzle-worn il
lustration then don’t complain if some
one falls to sleep in his pew or stays
at home for a change.
Let us he temperate in all things.
Now this tits in the sense of church fi
nance as well as in anything.
You expect too much of a preacher,
some of you let him do all of your
thinking—praying, singing, preaching
and finance the whole business. Now,
let us get busy, keep the preacher’s
mind free from worry about anything
that is mine and yours to do, and pay
unto Caesar the things which are his
and unto God that which he wills.
When Moses taught the children he
took no collection did he? When Jesus
went into a mountain his disciples came
and he preached to them. We have no
proof of a collection.
Judas was the custodian of coin that
was handed in, and what became of
him may he true of us who strive for
the filthy lucre.
• I thank you.

A Real Tire Bargain
Some people think a low price indicates a tire bargain
They do not realize that the true cost is determined,
not by the purchase price, but by the final cost per mile.
The best tire bargain is a tire that gives the most mile
age and satisfaction.
THAT TIRE IS THE GOODYEAR TIRE
Proof of this statement is the fact that more people
ride on Goodyear tires than on any other kind.
We are anxious to show you the way to make more
mileage and more satisfaction with our complete line
of Goodyear Tires, Tubes and Accessories.
We want to give you a REAL tire bargain.
