PAGE FOUR IN MEMORY The majesty of death widens our perspectives and enables us to understand and to ap¬ praise our friends and fellow citizens with justice and appre¬ ciation. We see the finished earthly life in its totality and are free from partisan and personal in¬ terests. In the consciousness and brevity of human life, we look upon each other with tolerance, love and honor. The passing of Mrs. Lula Corput Case, widow of the late John L. Case, at her home in Trenton, on April 25, brought sorrow to the citizens of her home town and Dad - ? County, where her leadership and Christian influence will live long in the hearts of all with whom she came in contact. Born at Sulphur Springs, Ala., on September 26, 1868, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jules Van Den Corput, she came to Dade County during her early girlhood, and s^ent her long and useful life as a resident of this county. The "Van Den" in the name of her parents came from Belgium, the native home¬ land of her father. Mrs. Case's father, and also his two brothers who immigrat¬ ed with him to America, settled in the deep south, and later served as gallant soldiers of the Confederacy during the Civil War. Max Van Den Cor¬ put, the oldest of the brothers, became a high ranking officer of the Confederacy, command¬ ing a battery of artillery in the "battle above the clouds," on Point Lookout, where a bronze plague bearing his name, marks the site of engagement in that historic battle. On April 20, 1890, the de¬ ceased became the wife of John L. Case, a member of a promi¬ nent pioneer family of Dade County, and unto their union six children were born, three daughters and three sons, all of whom are living, except a daughter,who died in infancy. On April 20, 1940, Mr- and Mrs. Case celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary, at which time they received the hearty congratulations and many handsome gifts from their many friends in Dade County and throughout the south. Mrs. Case was reared in a Christian home and early dedi¬ cated herself to the service of God, becoming a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Religion was fundamental in the thought and life of the de¬ ceased and her achievements in Christian love and charity have marked her pathway through a long and useful ca¬ reer. Outstanding in her character was her friendliness and good will to all men, and her friends were numbered by her ac- guaintances. As the courage of great men outlive them to become the courage of their people, so will the influence of Mrs. Case live to light the pathway of others to Christian living. God's work¬ men die. but the work itself goes onward under an unbrok¬ en succession of faithful and devoted men. It lives beyond them and upholds their purpos¬ es and brings their hopes to pass- —C. S. TURNER. CARD OF THANKS We most sincerely thank our friends and neighbors for their many expressions of kindness and sympathy during the ill ness and at the death of our dear mother, Mrs- John If Case. Also, we are very grateful for the many beautiful flowers. May the blessings of God rest upon each of you is our pray¬ er. —The Family of Mrs. John L. Case. Sgt. Norman Bradford The death of Sgt. Norman Bradford, who was killed on the battlefront in Europe, on Jan. 11, has brought sorrow to his par¬ ents and sadness to the citizens of the entire county, who deep¬ ly sympathize with the bereft family- Norman was a model young man, a brave soldier and in making the supreme sacrifice for his country, he has shown himself to be a "Hero Beyond the Call of Duty," and has won the gratitude of his home coun¬ ty and the entire nation. We all loved him dearly and will miss him very greatly; but in our grief the knowledge that he has helped to overcome the cruel enemy and bring Peace and Freedom to the entire world, will give us comfort. —MRS.

THE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, MAY 3, 1945. HARRY TRUMAN: FROM FARM TO WHITE HOUSE (Continued From Page One) many friends in the house of repre¬ sentatives. When Roosevelt decided on the momentous step last year of run¬ ning for a fourth term, he also had to make a choice for a running mate. After hesitating a long time he let it be known, just before the national convention met in Chicago, that he believed Harry Truman would be the most satisfactory choice. Truman won the nomination. He was elected with Roosevelt in November. As vice president, Truman ha3 stuck close to his duties as presi¬ dent of the senate. He has kept in close touch with the world-embrac¬ ing activities of war-time Washing¬ ton, and sc was ready to assume the duties of chief executive when the call came so unexpectedly. PRESIDENT TRUMAN Only two hours and thirty minutes after Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, Harry S. Truman became President of >he United States.

WAR BONDS Sound Doctrine Jesus cautioned men thus: "Take heed what ye hear" (Mark 4:24). God gave us the responsibility of discriminating between truth and error. God does not want us to be moved from the truth. God revealed me plan of salvation to man and made it so plain that men should no longer be children "tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doc¬ trine" (Eph. 4:11-15). We are warned not to "believe every spirit but to try the spirits whe¬ ther they are of God; because many false prophets are gone 4:1). out into the world" (I John One may profess to be a teacher of God's word, while he is but a false teacher (Matt. 7:15). There is a kind of teach¬ ing that deceives the hearer, leaving him in a deluded state (II Tim. 2:14). There is a kind of preaching that causes div- isons (I Tim. 6:3-5). There is a kind of preaching that scratches the itching ears of the hearers (II Tim. 4:1-4). Friends, let us beg of you to read the above given scriptures in your own Bible and then ask yourself what kind of preaching you hear and obey. The Bible teaches that you must have faith (Heb. 11:6). You must repent (Luke 13:3). You must confess Christ (Matt. 10: 32). You must be baptized into Christ (Gal. 3:27). in order to be¬ come a Christian. Does your preacher preach that all four of the above steps are necess¬ ary before you become a Chris¬ tian? If not, he is one ot the preachers mentioned in the be¬ ginning of this article. Tres your preacher s preach ing harmonize with Acts 4:12, which says, "There is no other name heaven (meaning Christ) under given among men whereby we must be saved? Or does he say you can be saved wear.ng another name? Con¬ sider the name you are wear¬ ing, then consider Acts 4:12. Does your preacher's preach¬ ing include the breakinq of bread on the first day of the week? That is what the disciples came together for on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7). Then if we fail to observe the Lord's supper when we come together on the first day of the week we fail to do the very thing we came for. Then, how often do we have a first day of the week and how often do we come the together on the first day o 1 week?♦ The answer is every week! Let us be care¬ ful to observe the Lord's sup¬ 20:7. per as we are taught inActs . Again, does your preacher's preaching go parallel with the Bible on the subject of bap¬ tism? Does he teach baptism for the remission of sons (Acts 2:38). Does he teach baptism saves you (Peter 3:21)? Does he teach baptism washes away your sins (Acts 22:16)? Does he teach tha t baptism requires much water (John 3:23)? Does he teach the physical act as going down into the water (Matt. 3:11-16; Acts 8:36-39; 10: 47)? As a coming up out of the water (Matt- 3:16; Acts 8:39)? As a burial, symbolized (Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12)? As a resur¬ rection, symbolized (Rom. 6: 4- 5; II Cor. 5-17; Col 2:12; Col. 3: 1)? Does he teach that baptism puts you into Christ (Gal. 3:27)? and nothing else? If he preach¬ es otherwise, read (Gal. 1:8) and see what should be done with him. Let him be accursed. Yes, friends, there are all kinds of teachers in the world today. Some true ones—some false ones. The true preachers preach only the Word of God— add nothing to it and take noth¬ ing from it. Rev. 22:18-19). False prophets will delude your minds and leave off di¬ rect, clear and plain Bible teaching in order to please you. God will not excuse you be¬ cause you don't know His will. God will not excuse you be¬ cause you don't obey His com¬ mandments just as they are written. God, at one time, wink¬ ed at ignorance, but now com¬ mands all men to come to re¬ pentance (Acts 17:30). Then let us heed the loving admonition, "Take heed what you hear" (Mark 4-24). Let us beware of false teachers (Mat,. 7:15). Let us read our Bibles and not have to depend on any man. He might be a false teach¬ er. All that one knows about God and His plan of salvation comes by hearing and studyinq God's word. No, God does not miraculously work on the sin¬ ner as some may teach you. The Bible is a complete guide and thoroughly furnishes us un- o every good work- Read your Bible, obey the teachings there- : n and Heaven will be your home when this life is over.
