“I was governor of Alabama
for eight years,” my good friend,
Bibb Graves said recently to
group of friends in the writer’s
office at Bob Jones College. “Of
course, in eight years a man in
my position had many unique
and memorable experiences.
Probably the most difficult ex
perience I ever had was listening
to the appeals which were made
to me as governor by friends and
loved ones of those who were
sentenced to die in the electric
chair. Many mothers came to
my office to beg for mercy for
their condemned sons. Every
mother that ever asked me
commute the death sentence
which hung over the head of her
child blamed herself for the sin
of the child. I was too indulgent,
I didn’t bring him up right. I
want to go and take his place.
Such statements I heard many
times. One old gray-headed col
,,red woman, whose daughter—a
woman about middle age and
weighing probably about two
hundred pounds—had been con
demned to death, said to me.
‘Governor, my little girl isn’t to
blame. 1 turned her loose when
she was a child. I know the law
has been violated and somebody
must burn in the electric chair,
but let me burn for her.’ I do
not see.” continued the governor,
“why anybody who know- the
vicarious trend of a mother »
heart should have any questio.,
about the vicarious blood-atone
ment made by Jesus on the
cross.” It occurred to the writ
er, as he listened to the governor
tell one dramatic story after an
other, that human love lias its
limitations. “Greater love hath
no man than this, that a man
lay down his life for a friend.
But God commendeth his love to
ward us in that while we were
yet sinners Christ died for us.”
In other words, the greatest
reach of human love is to lay
down life for a loved one or a
friend. Any normal mother
would lay down her life for her
child. Some men are willing to
lay down their lives for their
friends. But that is always as
far as human love can reach.
God’s love reaches farther than
that. Jesus laid down his life for
His enemies. The race is a rebel
race, according to the old-time.

ble certainly teaches and which

Memories
We are in the midst of one of
the worst drouths the majority of
the people who are living today
have ever seen. We read of the
areas where ^here is very little
rain, and water has to be hauled
miles and miles to supply the
family needs, such as drinking
water, for cooking, and watering
the mules, horses, and cows as
well as the chickens.
We also read the earth gets so
dry the wind actually is blowing
the soil away in dust storms, and
another thing where there is no
water, the heat becomes so in
tense that human life and vege
table life can hardly stand it. Men
are beginning to realize that there
is a remedy, and they are chang
ing the large streams of watei*.
making two rivers out of one, tak
ing part of the water through
pipes into this dry area and re
leasing it so it will make this dry
worthless land begin to produce,
put on new life and bring forth
iier fruits in due season.
We might go on and enumerate
a great number of things, and tell
you what they can’t do without
water, and then we could tell you
how damaging and dangerous wa
ter is when not properly used or
controlled, but our time is limit
ed today, so we will make our ap
plication.
The Bible speaks of the water
of life, do you remember what the
Saviour said it would do for you if
you would drink of this water?
There are other things it will do
besides giving you eternal life,
That, of course, is the gift of
gifts, there is the water of love, it
sprinkles our lives with that re
freshing shower that makes us
look out upon the things around
us, and we see things in a differ
ent light, our neighbor looks dif
ferent to us, he has a pleasant
word for us, the car drives better,
and every one at the office, work
shop or factory all seem to be
moving in a higher atmosphere
than usual. There is another thing
that this water does, it quenches
our thirst for doing evil deeds,
mistreating our fellowman, covet
ing things that do not belong to
you and never can be obtained
honorably, these and many other
degrading sins will all vanish if
you will partake freely of this
water of love and honesty.
Our thought for today, Feed on
the things that will not let ouq
lives become dry and parched by
the blistering sun of unrighteous
ness.

Quail Lore
A large percentage of quail
nests are located within 30 feet
from the edge of a field. If there
j j are not too many roaming cats
an d dogs, the quail seem to pre
fer nests along roads, paths, and
occasionally close to dwellings.
Valuable Cows
William Mercer, who lives
near Middlebourne, West Virgin
ia, noticed that his cow’s noses
were greasy and that their milk
had a gaseous odor. Then
found oil covering his spring and
gas bubbling up, so he built a
dam. Now' he is collecting about
a barrel of crude a day.

finding an oil well!" Mercer re
marked.
Lone Wolf
The expression “Lone Wolf”
is said to come from the fact
that a wolf usually mates for
: life. Lt.xm the death of its com
panion, an older male or female
seldom mates again or joins a
family group on forays. W Ives
are considered barbaric but the
divorce courts of this “civilized”
country could learn something
from their marriage creed. ...
SOUTHERN
WILD LIFE
Brother Angler!
One of the sea's rarest and odd
est fish is the deep-sea angler.
The largest males are 1 to 2 inch
es long; the largest females, are
about 3 feet. Displaying a mono
gamous tendency almost incred
ible, the male attaches himself by
a little fringe of flesh to his
mate’s body and proceeds to grow
there, becoming entirely parasit
ic. The female has a mouth al
most a foot wide, over which dan
gles a long growth with a beaut
iful tassel-like affair at the end
This natural fish lure has a light
in its tip, furthermore, to make it
doubly attractive. Quietly confi
dent that things will come her
way, the female just lies on the
sea floor with her mouth open,
dangling he*" luminescent lure,
As the smaller fish swim toward
the lure, she swishes it out of the
way, and that's that. The female
is fed directly; the male, through
his now tightly grown alimenta
ry canal, being fed indirectly. |
Blackbird Pies
It has been suggested that
starlings prepared in “blackbird
pies,” make quite an edible dish
and that idea, if passed around,
may take some of them out of
circulation. They are getting to
be a leal nuisance in most of the
Southern States.
Cigarettes For Measuring Fish
It might save you a fine and
besides, it isn’t sportsmanlike to
take undersize fish. When you
are caught without a rule, re
member that the length of any
standard cigarette is 2 3-4 inches
and that of the new “longies” is
3 1-4 inches. Lay your cigar
ettes end to end beside the fish
in doubt and add the total.
Only One American Breed?
Sportsmen in general don't
seem to know that most of our
sporting breed of dogs are “fur
riners.” The Chesapeake Bay
retreiver is an American breed.
Some handlers say the Kentucky
Foxhound and some other dogs
are also American breeds, but
there seems to be some doubt
about them.
