HOW TO KILL THE CHURCH
(By Rev. F. M. Gaines, in Gaines
ville Eagle.)
1. Ignore it.
2. Do not attend services on time.
3. Stay outside until the first
song is sung. The first song is not
a part of the worship, but just a
signal that the service has begun.
4. Do not occupy the front pews;
they are reserved for the spirits of
those who are present only “in
spirit.”
5. Do not engage in the worship
—the pastor is paid to look after
that.
6. If you can sing, don’t go in
the choir; someone might be envious
of your voice.
7. If you have charge of the music
or any part of the service, be at
least five minutes late.
8. Get mad if the preacher be
gins the service before you come.
He ought to wait on YOU.
9 Get a pastor who is consider
ate enough to wait until he thinks
everybody has come, even if’ he is
thirty minutes late beginning the
service.
11. It is cheaper to be a shirker
than a worker, “Holding-back-straps”
cost less than traces.
12. If you can’t play first fiddle,
don’t fiddle.
13. If the church attempts any
thing new, object to it. The “old
time religion,” dispensed in “the
good old-fashioned way,” is good
enough, even though we are living
in anew age.
14. When you are not consulted
about everything that is done in the
church, “stand up for your rights”
and show your color.
15. Do not tell your pastor of any
sickness or newcomers. He might
think that you are dictatorial. Let
him find it out; that's his business.
16. Criticize your pastor for not
visiting you. It will be safe to tell
him to dine with you any time he
wants to, but don’t say, “Brother
Blank, can you have dinner with us
next Tuesday at 1 o’clock.” He
might come then.
17. If you are helped by the ser
mon, don’t tell the pastor. It might
make him conceited if you encourage
him too much.
18. A preacher should be poor in
spirit and humble. You keep your
pastor poor, and the Lord can make
him humble.
19. Do not aid the church finan
cially. The church is the agency of
salvation, and, of course, salvation is
FREE.
20. If you are going to take a trip
take it on Sunday. The Lord was
generous enough to give us six days
in the week. Why not just take the
seventh?
21 It is not necessary to be antag
onistic to the church. Just be indif
ferent.
FROM TYPE METAL MAGAZINE.
Aim for a goal you have some
chance of realizing.
It’s fine to be unselfish if you can
keep quiet about it.
Luck always seems to favor the
man who doesn’t count on it.
Loneliness is universal—no hu
man soul ever finds a perfect match.
Some people seem to get a good
deal out of life by not expecting too
much.
Only the skillful can
defy public opinion without getting
crushed.
Some people can make us positive
ly happy if they will leave us alone
and keep out of our sight.
Now that electric servants have
relieved women of the drudgery of
housework, * they’ve become so rest
less that they want to stay, out half
the night.
PEACE
Seekers of peace, we hurry here and
there,
The great, the strong, the humble
and the weak,
And never know where bides the
thing we seek.
Day finds us on the crowded
thoroughfare,
And night where lights are bright
and trumpets blare:
Some chase the dream up to a
mountain’s peak,
Some think it lies in praise the
critics speak,
Or proud possession of some trinket
rare.
Yet perfect peace is only for the
dedd.
For all who live some purpose still
remains,
Some cause for struggle, with its
hurts and pains,
Something to hope for and to look
ahead,
And life stays sweet, not by the
victories past,
But by the goals we hope to reach
at last.
—Edgar A. Guest

I WHISKERS AND FARMERS
An official of the American Farm
, Bureau Federation, returning from a
tour of 23 states, says he was sur
prised to find so few farmers with
whiskers. “Not even the old men
had them,” he said. He feels that
we may as well abandon all notions
that the farmers of today wear long
whiskers and go about with a straw
between their teeth, a t the cartoon
ists picture them. Like most men,
the farmer wears clothes adapted
to the kind of work he does. He
Would be foolish to go into the field
dressed like a floor walker. Mentally,
he comes as near being "dressed up”
all the time as the peerage man. He
is well-informed, we mean, and ho
knows what is going on in the world.
With all modern means at hapd for
keeping in touch with things he takes:
advantage of them. And if there is
any one in the world who is really
behind the times it is the fellow who
thinks the farmer is.
PROHI LAW VIOLATOR
PASSES OWN SENTENCE
Rome, Ga.—James Sanford, charg
ed with possessing liquor, passed his
own sentence Saturday when he en
tered a plea of guilty to the charge
before Judge James Maddox, of
Floyd superior court.
Sanford explained to the judge
that he had got into the habit of
drinking liquor and didn’t seem able
to overcome it, but that he thought
he could get straight if he were
sent to the state farm for about
four months, where he was sure he
wouldn’t be able to get any of the
beverage. Still, in order that he
might feel assured that he would not
again fall into his evil ways after
serving the term, he told the judge
that he thought he ought to be put
on probation about eight months.
Although he had no precedent by
which to be guided, at least not in
his own practice, the judge consid
ered this a fair sentence and agreed
to allow the defendant to have his
own wish in the matter.
PAY-AS-YOU-GO EFFICIENCY j
Having disbursed three miliiom
dollars in cash for road and bridge
construction during the last four
months and being prepared to meet
within the next ten days, were it.
necessary, all bills for the recently
awarded contracts for additional
work, amounting to two million, six
hundred thousand dollars, the state
highway department turns another
leaf in the record of pay-as-you-go
efficiency. It is doubtful, as even the
most ardent of bond advocates will
admit, that much more than five and
a half millon dollar; could have been
spent to advantage within the given
period.
A larger sum would have yielded
goodly interest to the lenders, but no
benefit to the state as borrower,
certainly none to the burden-bearing
taxpayers. Further, as soon as the
roads here referred to are built they
are paid for, the cost thus being limit
ed to actual construction. Under a;
long-range credit plan, they might
easily have been worn out before the
last of the bonds were liquidated.—

A LAMP FOR COURTING
While walking along a country
road in Scotland one dark night, a
farmer met a ploughman carrying a
lamp. “Whaur are you gaun wi’ the
licht?” asked the farmer. ‘‘l’m gaun
tae coort my lass,” was the frank
reply. “Man, that’s awful ,” remark
ed the farmer, “I didna tak’ a lamp
when I was coortin.’.” “I thocht
that,” rejoined the ploughman*
“when I first saw your wife.”
