VOLUME 44 - NUMBER 2
Who Promised Security?
A Message to Youth
By Margaret Mitchell
This newspaper has secured
permsision to reprint a letter by
Margaret Mitchell to a young
friend who was troubled about
finding “security” in the modern
world.
The letter was first published
in the book “Margaret Mitchell
of Atlanta” written by Finis Farr
and published by William Mor
row & Company, Inc., of New
York.
Margaret Mitchell, author o f
“Gone with the Wind”, revealed
her attitude toward life in very
expressive terms. The young
man’s inquiry and her reply were
as follows:
A youth of the modern genera
tion, a friend of Margaret’s
wrote her that in his opinion
he and his college mates “had
been cruelly cut away from the
faith or our fathers by solid facts
... We have found it hard to
look ahead to any good world for
ourselves. We have cried out for
security, have yearned for i t
more than any other blessing.
And we have been constantly
warned that, of all things, secur
ity was the one we were least
likely to find.”
The young man went on to say
that he thought this a bad state
of affairs.
Margaret’s reply is a careful
statement of her philosophy of
life. Immediately after reading
the young man's complaint, she
wrote, “I arise to ask, in a loud,
hoarse voice, ‘Who the hell ever
promised you and your genera
tion security. And, most impor
tant of all, why should any youth
want security? Let the old and
the tired, who have fought the
good fight and run the race,
think of security, not the young.’
“What bothers me about some
of the young is that, to the
best of my knowledge, they are
the first younger generation I
ever heard about who not only
yearn for security but confident
ly expected it as their lawful
right and were bitter and dis
gruntled when it was not hand
ed to them on a silver platter.
“There is something very
frightening about the young peo
ple of a nation crying out to be
secure. Youth has been, in the
past, thrusting and willing and a
ble to take chances. If the youth
of today wants to be safe and
secure and leave to the older peo
ple the tough job of fighting the
fights and taking the hazards,
then we are all in a bad way.
“My family is very long-lived
and I can remember that when
I was a little girl I had the pri
vilege of listening to a relative
who was in the Forty-nine gold
rush, and he remembered very
clearly talking to his older rela
tives who had gone through the
Revolutionary War, the War of
1812 and the Seminole Indian
troubles.
“I know a great deal about my
own family, and my friends here
in the South are just as well in
formed about the doing of their
long dead people and the attitude
of those people. I do not recall
a single instance where any of
these old-timers ever expected
security or even thought they
might attain it. In fact, lam
sure they would have given you
a bewildered look if you had dis
cussed the matter with them,
and they would have been as an
gry as if you had accused them
of the rankest cowardice. Cer
tainly the youngsters who went
out with Washington weren’t pro
mised anything but the privilege
of freezing or dying in the Bri
tish prison ships. And their chil
dren who came after them, when
the currency of these United
States ‘wasn’t worth a continen
tal’ expected nothing except the
opportuntiy to work like hell and
not get anywhere.
“Those who came along in the
1812 time, with our ports block
aded and workmen dying of star
vation, did not look for security
or expect it. When Andy Jackson
wrecked the banks and there
were no Federal Reserve Sys
tem or insured bank deposits, I
don’t believe these young people
sat around being bitter about an
insecure world. I know my kin
folks didn’t. Certainly the people
who went into South Georgia and
North Florida and Alabama to
build their homes when the Sem
inoles were taking scalps, would
not have gone there had they ex
pected security. All they wanted
BRANTLEY ENTERPRISE

was a halfway chance to scalp
Seminoles. As for what young
people faced in the South after
Appomattox, not even half of the
horrors have been told. There
was no money, no opportunity,
and hardly as much hope as the
Belgains under Hitler now have.
I personally knew that genera
tion very well.
“They were a tough and hard
bitten lot; they knew there was
no safety anywhere in the
world; I doubt if it ever oc
curred to them that they merit
ed security; they knew that the
race was not to the swift nor
the battle to the strong; they
knew they could break their backs
working and give their lives to
rebuild their section and yet in
the end lose everything, even
their lives. But the ones I knew
certainly enjoyed scrapping, and
they rebuilt our section with no
more security than their own guts
to build it on. We now come to
the next generation, which was
my mother’s — well, I think she
would have laughed if you had
talked about security for youth,
for she married in the panic of
the mid-nineties, in times more
bitter than the present depression
and she brought up her children
through the successive panics of
1907 and 1914. I myself saw the
1914 one and the hard times of
1920. Perhaps the North didn’t
have that 1920 panic, but I re
member it very vividly.
“Now that I come to my own
age and generation, I am on very
firm ground. Even if someone
had been silly enough to talk to
us about security or to tell us
that we merited it, we would not
have been silly enough to believe
them. Furthermore, we would
have been furious because doubts
would have been cast upon our
courage and our capabilities. I
recall that the worst insult which
could be flung at my generation
was, ‘Oh, so you want it safe.’
We didn’t want it safe. Most of
us fought against safety. Even
the girls who came from shelter
ed homes wanted to get out and
take their chances, and most of
them did. The ones who didn’t
were looked upon as weaklings.
“You spoke of seeing your fa
ther’s world come tumbling down.
Well, we certainly saw the world
crash, and, except for the Restor
ation Period in England, I can
not think of a similar world, for
we saw the Victorian Age crash
about our feet. And, far from
feeling disgruntled or bitter that
life was not going to be what
we might have expected, we were
pleased to death, for here was
something new, a land without
landmarks, a country to be pio
neered — spiritually, at least.
“So that brings us down to
your generation. You aren’t the
only boy who has spoken to me
as you have written, but you are
far above most of them because
you are thinking your way
through this matter. Ever since
the New Deal came into being
the young ones have been told
that they are God’s chosen crea
tures, that the world not only
owes them a living but a good
living and an awfully good time.
“Granted that your generation
has been told this, why on earth
have you believed it? Surely,
your generation can’t be so fool
ish as to swallow all this whole
and then feel that you have the
right to be bitter and frustrated
when things don’t work out as
promised. Surely, common sense
and the experience of your elders
and the perspective of history and
the knowledge of human nature
should have made you realize
that these things were untrue and
unenforceable.
“People like my husband and
me will not often say or write
the things I have written. It’s
just too much trouble and we
generally feel that the young per
sons we are talking to will not
comprehend what we are saying
or, having comprehended, will
say indignantly that we are Tor
ies standing in the way of the
more abundant life. But these are
the things we think ... We are
alarmed at seeing a generation
of young people, who should be
full of courage and daring, hav
ing the mental attitudes of the
old and the tired and the bitter
who want nothing more than a
warm chimney comer and a
sense of security.
“Probably by now you have
forgotten what you wrote in your
letter and will wonder at the
length of my reply to one small
item you wrote, but I had it in
mind and I like you, so I had
to write it. Come to see John and
me when you are in Atlanta next.
We will make a large pot of cof
fee and talk till dawn if you
like.”

Legislative Comment
BY FRANCIS HOUSTON
State Representative, 84th District
Pierce and Brantley Counties
Under the recent reapportion
ment of the House of Representa
tives of Georgia, Brantley and
Pierce Counties were combined
to form what is now known as the
84th Representative District, and
they will share one Representa
tive for the forthcoming year.
As your Representative of the
84th District, I shall attempt, by
use of this column, to inform
you Citizens of Pierce and Brant
ley Counties of the issues facing
the General Assembly of Georgia
this Session, and the action tak
en thereon.
One thing that we are going
to be faced with is whether or
not to increase the sales tax from
three cents to four cents. One
member of the legislature pro
poses to introduce in this Ses
sion of the General Assembly,
legislation increasing the sales
tax to four cents, and provid
ing that one-fourth of the money
collected from sales tax be dis
tributed to the educational sys
tem of Georgia on an average
daily attendance basis.
Additional legislation would set
the maximum at which counties
or local school systems could
levy ad valorem taxes for school
purposes at five mills, rather
than at the present twenty mills
The Revenue Commissioner es
timates that a one per cent in
crease in sales tax for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1967, would
bring in an additional $77,585,416.-
00 after deducting the vendors
compensation of $2,399,549.00.
The office of the State Superin-
Nahunta Masons
To Meet in
New Building
The Nahunta Masonic Lodge
will hold its first meeting in the
new lodge building Tuesday night,
Jan. 18, it is announced by Em
ory Middleton, lodge secretary.
The new Masonic Lodge build
ing has been under construction
for some time. The cornerstone
was laid several weeks ago by
the state Grand Lodge officers in
an impressive ceremony.
The lodge has been meeting for
many years upstairs over the old
Citizens Bank building. The new
lodge hall is much larger than
the old one.
Both the Masonic Lodge and the
Eastern Star will meet in the
new building hence forth. The
Masons meet each first and third
Tuesday nights and the Eastern
Star Chapter meets each second
and fourth Tuesday nights.
CARD OF THANKS
We would like to take this
means of expressing our sincer
est thanks and deepest apprecia
tion for the messages of sympa
thy, floral offerings, covered dish
es and other acts of kindness
shown us during the illness and
death of our loved one.
May the Lord bless each of
you is our prayer.
The Family of
Fred E. Rogers
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our sincere
thanks to everyone for their kind
ness to us during the illness and
at the death of our loved one
Mrs. Kathryn Kelly Parrott.
We appreciate the floral offer
ings, the covered dishes the words
of sympathy and every gesture
which showed your consideration
of her and the family.
May God bless each one of you.
Sincerely,
The family of Mrs. Parrott.
R. O. Kimbrell, Associational
Sunday School Superintendent,
and the Rev. Virion Griner, pas
tor of Emmanuel Baptist Church,
extend a cordial invitation to
membership of the Association
and others interested to attend.
tendent of Schools says that the
required local effort for all of
the Georgia school systems for
the school year 1965-1966 is a
total of $40,500,000.00. For the
years 1969 and 1970, when each
school system will be required to
pay twenty per cent of the edu
cational costs, the reouired lo
cal effort will be $60,600,382.00.
As you can see, the amount of
money collected under this pro
posal would be $17,000,000.00 in
excess of what the school sys
tems will need in 1969 and 1970.
I am interested in knowing how
the people of the 84th District
feel about the proposed increase
in sales tax. I will appreciate any
comments that you have to make.
There is also a movement un
der way to abolish capital pun
ishment in Georgia. As for my
self, I have mixed emotions about
this. Sometimes, I feel that we
should abolish capital punish
ment, and then we have some
heinous crime committed and I
wonder if an organized society
doesn’t also have some rights.
I will appreciate your com
ments about this issue, also.
I will be staying at the Georgia
Hotel in Atlanta during the ses
sion, and you can reach me there
or at the House of Representa
tives.
My secretary, Mrs. Davis will
be in my law office in Blackshear
every day except Wednesdays,
and any messages you want to
leave with her will be promptly
transmitted to me.

Questions and Answers
on the Bible
BY MRS. GLADYS C. JOHNSON
Why are Christians
Admonished to FEAR God?
Notice that the question refers
to Christians. Certainly the un
saved have good reason to fear
the Lord for as Paul tells us in
Hebrews 10:30, 31 “The Lord
shall judge his people. It is a
fearful thing to fall into the hands
of the living God.”
But we have been taught that
God is a God of love —a God
of mercy — His heart overflows
with compassion for the down
trodden, the sick and the afflict
ed. How is it possible for us
to fear such a God?
All this is very true, but some
of the other attributes of God
are justice, righteousness and
holiness. His anger can be kind
led against the sin in the life of
the Christian. He loves the sin
ner but He hates his sin and it
behooves us not to forget to show
the proper respect toward this
righteous Judge.
Paul continues his admonition
in Hebrews 12:25, 28, 29. “So see
to it that you obey Him Who is
speaking to you. For if the peo
ple of Israel did not escape when
they refused to listen to Moses,
the earthly messenger, how ter
rible our danger if we refuse to
listen to God Who speaks to us
from heaven . . . Since we have
a kingdom nothing can destroy,
let us please God by serving Him
with thankful hearts, and with
HOLY FEAR and awe. For our
God is a consuming fire.” The
Paraphrased Epistles.
Yes, this fear of God has more
of the meaning of “standing in
awe or holy reverence before
Him.” It has nothing to do with
our salvation, for our sins have
already been judged and we are
safely covered with the blood of
the Lord Jesus Christ.

hurst, died Saturday night in an

shear; one daughter, Mrs. Anne

It you are a subscriber for
The Brantley Enterprise, you
do not have to BORROW
your neighbor’s paper to find
out what is happening each
week in Brantley County.
However, even as believers
“we shall all stand before the
judgment seat of God” and
“each one of us shall give ac
count of himself to God.” Romans
14:10-12 R. V.
“We must all stand before
Christ to be judged. Each of us
will receive the payment he de
serves for the good or bad things
he has done in these bodies here
on earth. It is because of this
solemn fear of God ever present
in our minds that we work so
hard to win others.” II Corin
thians 5:10.
Some of us may be ashamed
as we stand before Him when
He comes back to claim His
own. I John 2:28.
So that we may not be asham
ed Paul tells us to “Do the good
'things that result from being
saved, obeying God with deep
reverence, shrinking back from
all that might displease Him.”
Phillipians 2:12.
When we have such a deep
rooted respect and love for some
one that we stand somewhat in
awe of them, we are most anx
ious to do everything in our pow
er to please that individual. We
would do nothing that would bring
reproach upon him or his name.
So if we truly love God we
should be fearful of falling short
of that which He expects of us.
Certainly we should fear coming
under the frown of His displea
sure.
This is not a fear of punish
ment — although we may feel
His hand in chastisement . . .
but it should be a fear that we
might disappoint Him who loved
us enough to die for us.
Those who know Him the best
and live the closest to Him are
the ones who have the greatest
‘fear’ of Him.
