J. M. Y,ork, of Scotts Creek,
came in Monday morning and
handed us a subscription for his
wife. He said she had been af

ing it. He also had the paper sent
to his daughter, Mrs. Carlos Fra-
dy, Mt. Airy, Ga. We thank you,
Mr. York. That’s what it takes
to keep a paper in tho county.
By Geo. W. Seay.
Whom or what do the men fill
ing our County, State and Na
tional Officers represent. An
swering from the stand point of
their constituency one would at
once say they represent thepeo
pie. But further thought on it
leads us to see that this is not
true—that they no not really
represent the people, but were
elected to represent the law to
the people. Since the officers
represent the law what does the
law represent?
Obviously it represents God
inasmuch as it came from Him;
for lie is the author of all law,
and peace -the sole source of all
these. - .
Lest this statement should be
doubted by some, we will goto
1 igherauthority. When God gave
nan the divine law, that relating
t > Himself He also, on the same
tablet gave him the principles of
tae civil law, that relating to
men. These were not written
v. ith pan and ink neither with
man’s hand, but with the finger
of God, Consequently the civil
law, as a whole, has its origin in
the same being the divine does.
These principles of civil law were
elaboration and interpreted by
.GodJu4Hp> - .and -for- year's, ffib
the JewsTHe alone was the legis
lative and largely the judicial
department^Lof their civil gov
ernment, amgave specific in
structions coBbrning the execu
tive. And thonearer we can get
back to the original the better
for us all.
Coming to the New Testament
we find some pointed statement
c'tncerning civil law. Turn to
Romans, 13th chapter, and read
from the first through the tenth
verse. We note Paul says: ‘ ‘Let
every soul be subject to higher
powers. For there is no power
but of God; The powers that be,
are ordained of God. Whosoever
therefore resi^teth the power,
resisteth the ordniance of God.”
Powers here mean organized bo
dies of men, as nations, states,
etc., united together to preserve
peace, and protect one another.
Every national power then is
from God, however weak, and
faulty its government.
For inasmuch as it tries to pre
serve psace and order at all, the
desire prompting the effort, is of
God, and any power standing for
peace and order isebetter than
none at all. Any man resisting
the ordinance of the weakest or
the strongest power is resisting
the ordinance of God. and should
therefore fear. “For he” the
arresting officer, acting by au
thority of the Magistrate, bear-
eth not the sword in vain; for he
is the Minister of God. the re
venger to execute wrath upon
him that doeth evil..” And a-
gain he, some officer “is the min
ister of God unto thee for good.”
Of the powers it is said that:
‘‘rulers are not a terror to good
work, but to the evil.” Some
may sav that certain officers do
not look to them like they repre
sented God and- righteousness.
Well it would, naturally be hard
for a violator to see it in this
Mr. Smith, Writes
Hon. J. A. Reynolds, Editor,
The Clayton Tribune,
Clayton, Georgia.
Dear John A:
Herewith is enclosed check for
*1.00 for the “Little Old Paper”
that you have been forwarding
to my address since I left home,
and I just want to say that I
very much appreciate your doing
so, we are always anxious to
know the news from there; and
how would we hear without tho
The Tribune?
I hope you will continue to
boost bonds for roads in Rabun
and I feel confident, when the
issue is submitted to the people,
they will not fail to vote right as
it appears to me that bonds are
the only hope to get permanent '
roads.
We had an election in Toccoa «•

There are 52,332 postmasters
ir. this country, of whom 39,433
are in the f-mrlh class, and these
are protected by the civil service.
There are also 700 postmasters
in offices of the first-class; 2,617
of the second-class; and 9,592 of
the third-class.
Mr. John Keener, of Wolf
Fork was a visitor in our office,
last Friday. Mr. Keener said he
was going to have the Tribune if
we decided to continue publica
tion. We .wish that Rabun was
filled with men like Mr. Keener-
then it would be a pleasure to
run a paper.
You have to get up at sun rise
to fully appreciate the beauty of
the mountains surrounding our
little city of Clayton, so the
writer was told a few days ago.
We tried it—and are fully con
vinced that it was the prettiest
sight we’ve seen since the morn
ing of November 11, 1919.
We are contributing a full page
to the cause of Christian Educa
tion this week. TheM.E. Church.
South, will raise a Christian Edu
cation Fund of $33,000,000 to e-
quip and adequately maintain a
system of 90 of the nation’s finest
and most thoroughly Christian
schools and colleges. The cam
paign period is May 28th—June
5th. Do your bit.
light. And the fact is, that the
man or personnel, of the office,
is not what is referred to, but the
office, with its function—the ex
isting. organization of the gov
ernment—its machinery.
This organization, and the law
for which it exists, are the things
that are from God. And the more
nearly they are like what He first
gave, the more nearly will both
be perfect.
