The bean beetle seems to have
done a lot of damage this time,
as several are totallv out of beans
and have been for sometime. It
is said that the boll weevil, bean
beetle, boll worm and many oth

It has been said that all laws
are made in the rich man’s favor
This does look reasonable in a
number of cases, but the laws
are made to deal with every one
alike. The difference is the rich
man is better prepared to take
advantage of the law than the
poor man is, and thru the help of
crooked men bend and twißt the
law to At his case in a manner
that he never suffers much. It
is well known that some of the
greatest crimes are committed
by “idle nich,” and they are nev
er forced to suffer considerble
for it. while on the other hand a
poor man is unable to put up the
money to fight his case thru sev
eral courts and therefore he must
suffer. But such as this will not
always be co. Christ, during h>q
staylon earth, often blessed the
poor, and likewise condemned the
rich, It seems that his greatest
interest was in helping the “less
fortunate” because he-said “it is
easier for a camel to go thru the
eye of a needle than for a rich
man to enter the kingdom of
heaven.” In the great hereaf
ter, the rich man cannot escape
punishment for violation of God’s
lavs any more than the poor can

Revival Meetings.
By F. H. Tallant.
Many have asked me to write
to the dear old North Georgian.
I say dear, yes, the name is dear.
It was from the pages of the
predicessors of the North Geor
gian that I learned to read, and
its editor has always been mighj
y kind to the public.
Let us study cause and effect.
Text; the spirit is ready. Asso
ciated with the text we find such
expressions as: The Lord art
good and ready to forgive. Be
yaalso ready. Christ was ready
to be offered as'a sacrifice. Be
ready to every good work. Be
of a ready mind.
The following are hindrances
to revivals, The flesh is weak,
The flesh profiteth nothing. We
serve with the flesh the law o
sin. We purpose according tojthe
flesh.
Paul says: I keep under my
body and bring it into subjec
tion. If the individual or the
church desires a revival do like
Paul, bring your bodies under
subjection, for the spirit is ready
and able.
A revival should be a proselyt
ing meeting, a fish catching time,
not a mackerel soaking affair.
Often half the revival week is
spent getting the church ready,
getting the brides ready for the
bridegroom, The flesh is weak.
A revival should be a lamb in
gathering to the flock. In many
revivals it takes the shepherd
half the time dehorning rams,
and clipping off dirty locks, get
ting the flock ready for decent
appearance^
Are you churches ready for a
revival? Are you church mem
bers ready for a revival? Or are
you waiting for the pastor to
mackerel soak you?
Have you purchased your oil
on I bended knees at the mercy
aeat? The spirit says come, and
the bride shys come. Are you
ready to extend the invitation?
Or are you waiting for a certain
time of the services to come, so
vou can publicly trim your lamp
and get your oil, and hop into
your robe? Better keep your
bodies under subjection.
I appeal to your common sense.
Would.you live with a wife wl.o
neglected you as you neglect your
church services? If the church,
neglects her duty, becomes world
ly minded, slovenly, lazy, serves
the flesh and walks disorderly,
she needfrot expect an increase
in family nor respect at home or
abroad. Brethren,pet us remem
ber His love. He died in our
stead, poor old flesh serving ras
cals that we are.
Why do people neglect going
to church and go to worldly gath
erings? Preachers often mention
this subject and the answer gen
erally is that the world is getting
worse, This is a mistake. The
world is yet humanity, it is yours
truly as ever carnate.
The world is ever ready to lis
ten to a live gospel, preached by
a live man to a live church.
Such is the gospel of the incar
nate Son of God.
We had all rather watch goats
gambol and Bkip over the mead
ow and frolic on the precipice
than to behold inactive sheep
suffering with their own filth,
not heeding their master’s call,
dying of the rots in the valley ot
Jehosephat. Make your own ap
plication.
The world had rather hear the
politician than the preacher. The
politician tells a lie like it was
the truth, and the preacher tells
the truth like it was a falsehood.

Most preachers study theology
that is good. But few preachers
study ichtyology sufficient. Sam
Jones, and Spurgeon and Truett
and Wyatt and Ingram and Bob
Eakes and Peter studied itchthy
ology under Jesus Christ. Peter
was a fisherman; the Lord trans
ferred him to be a man catcher
The fisher must know the hab
its, wants, nature, desires, taste3
ind physioiogy of the fish of dif
ferent species.
Preachers must study man
ichthyology or the bate or net to
use to catch men for Christ. The
gospel plan is sufficiently ade
quate to catch and hold all man
ner of fish.l
One preacher is lucky for cat
and suckers, another for perch
and minnows, another for trout
and bass, , another will catch
horny heads as fast as you can
count, This is different spiritual
gifts. lam no fisherman, but I
do love the fish before and after
they are caught. 1 love good
fisherman.
Some preachers are am phi bi
ologists—they catch tadpoles,
crawfish and such other things
as are emphibious, or’can live in
two elements.
Other preachers are hibernulo
gists; their catch always hiber
nate, or go into winter quarters,
They sleep off the time
A lot of us seem to belong to
the hibernating specie.
The flesh is weak, but the spir
it is willing, Oar bodies m jst be
subdued Christ Jesus must be
preached or sinners lost. Teach
and preach and live the one way.
Let all your sermon center on
Jesus Christ, the crucified Son of
God, By the goodness of God
lead sinners to Him.
