Announcement was made on
Tuesday that the Federal Govern
ment had anqounc id that the road
from Pembrokt to Hinesville will
be built immediately and that the
road bed will be 12 feet wide in
order to accommodate the needs
of Camp Stewart. This will be one
of the widest roads in Georgia and
probably be one of the best when
completed, and it has been an
nounced that this road will come
ahead of all other roads that have
been approved in Georgia.
During the past few weeks we
have been besieged by those living
in the area that it is to be taken
by the Government, asking us for
information as to where the line
runs, when will the Government
take their land, how much will
they get and last but not least
when will they get their money.
To ail these questions we have been
forced to answer we didn’t know,
and we didn’t. Still, we have
heard this and h >ard that but as
a rule \ hen we run down this or
that report we g< nerally find that
there is nothing to it, and how the
report got started is more than
can be understood.
It is a fact that the Government
is going to take a large area in
Bryan county nd from the best
reports we haw been able to ob
tain it will rv three and a half
miles south o the Seaboard Rail
way on the i 1 hern end of the
county and about one mile north of
the Coastal Hi ’ way to where it
crosses the A. itic Coast Line
tracks and t n : will follow the
right of wc the Coast Line.
The War D j nent has stated
that they v o have this area
cleared by .Jauu 1. and that seems
to be the o ■ ! lentic news along
that line,
On last Sat -lay the price of

the BIRTH OF JESUS
Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series of six articles
appearing in The Pembroke Journal condensed from Charles
L. Allen’s new book, “The Life of Christ,” copyrighted by
Fleming H. Revell Company. Used by permission.
The birth of Jesus happened in this way. When his mother
Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, before they came to
gether, it was found that she was with child—of the Holy Ghost.
An Angel came to her and said, “Hail, thou that are highly favoured!
The Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women.” But she
was disturbed by what the angel said and did not understand.
And the angel said to her, “Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found
favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be
great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God
shall give unto him the throne of his father David: and he shall
reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there
shall be no end.”
Then Mary said to the angel, “How shall this be, seeing I know
not a man?” And the angel replied, “The Holy Ghost shall come
upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee:
therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be
called the Son of God. And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath
also convinced a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with
her, who was called barren. For with God nothing shall be im
possible.’’
Mary then said, “Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto
me according to thy word." And the angel departed from her.
Before long Mary went to the city of Judah to see Elisabeth.
When Elisabeth heard Mary’s hello, her own baby leaped within her.
She felt the Spirit of God and with a loud voice said, “Blessed art
thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And
whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to
me? For, io, as soon as the voice of thy salvation sounded in mine
ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. And blessed is she that
believed for there shall be performance of these things which
were told her from the Lord.”
Mary then said:
“My soul doth magnify the Lord,
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden:
For, behold, from henceforth all generation shall call me
blessed.” —
At this time Caesar Augustus sent out a decree that everyone
should be registered. This happened when Cyrenius was governor
of Syria. Everyone went to his own city to register. Because
Joseph was a descendant of David, he went to Bethlehem in Judea
to register, together with his wife, Mary, who was expecting a child.
While they were there it came time for her baby to be born,
and she gave birth to her first son. She wrapped him up and laid
him in a manger, because there was not room for them in the inn.
Nearby there were shepherds out in the field watching over
their sheep during the night. An angel appeared before them, the
light of God began to shine all around them, and they were very
much afraid. The angel said to them, “Fear not: for, behold, I
bring you good tidings for great joy, which ehall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which
is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall
find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.”
At that moment a heavenly choir appeared singing:
“Glory to God in the highest.
And on earth peace, good will toward men "
After the angels had gone, the shepherds said to each other, “Let
us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to
pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.” .
They hurried and found Mary, and Joseph, and the baby laying
in a manger. When they had seen ti, they told all around what had
been told them about this child. The people who heard it was
amazed at what the shepherds said. But Mary made mental note of
everything and thought about it carefully. The shepherds returned
filled with praise to God for what they had heard and seen.
Wise men who had seen his star in the East came to worship
Jesus. And the star went before them, until it stood over the place
where the young child was. When they saw the star it brought
great joy to them.
When they came into the house, they saw the young child with
Mary his mother, and they knelt down and worshipped him. When
they opened their treasures, they presented to him gifts of gold and
frankincense and myrrh.
