fN MEMORY
The death angel visited the home
of Mr. O. P. Tucker, of Menlo, Ga.,
August 1, 1936, and took from them
his beloved wife. Mrs. Tucker was
only 34 years old and her going away
so suddenly was a shock to her fam
ily and many friends.
Ethel, as she was known by many
of her friends, had made so many
friends since they 'had moved in our
j little town.
She was never too busy with her
work to lend a helping hand to help
some one or to visit the sick and
! needy. She loved her Savior and she
told me she liked to witness for the
i Lord by helping others along and
j speaking a kind word to those who
were down and out. She said, “I
can’t teach God’s Word, but I can
; help in this way to witness and it
gives me great joy to know I can do
it for my Master.”
She is missed in her home, she is
missed on the streets, she is missed
at our T-T. A. meetings, she is miss
ed at church, she is missed at the
ball games, she is missed by her lov
ed ones when they have problems to
| solve, for she was a problem solver
|in the up and downs of her loved
ones, friends and fellowmen.
Now her voice is stilled. We hear
no more laughing voice, no joking, no
kind word and see no smiling face in
the crowds which can fill the place
of her.
To know her was to love her. We
can not understand why she was tak
en when she was such a good, useful,
Christian woman; but some of these
days we’ll understand the why of
these things and I know our God
never makes a mistake.
I’m quite sure if she could only
speak back to us, knowing what she
does now, (her spirit) she’d sav first
to her husband and children, I want
you all to meet me in heaven on that
happy golden shore, it even more
beautiful than I could imagine. She
woud say, I left a guide book for you
all to go by. It is my Bible —God’s
Word—it will tell you how to be sav
ed, it will tell you how to walk ir
the paths of righteousness, it wifi
tell you how to treat your fellowmen.
and Otis it will tell you how to raise
our children —.she’d say you’ll have
to be mother and daddy also, and God
says for you to bring them up under
the nurture and admonition of the
Lord; you’ll have to deny yourself
something of the world and take up
the cross and live for the Savior whc
died for you.
To her parents, brothers and sis
ters, I can imagine she’d say, I want
all of you to meet me in heaven,, be
lieve John 3-16, John 3-26, John 5
24, Acts 4-10-12, Rom. 10: 9-14 am
numerous others. And if she coul<
only speak to everyone, I imagim
she would tell us how much time we
spend foolishly, when it could b
snent in praying, and studying God’?
Word. Oh, I know she could look
back and see how we say in deed?
and actions we have no time for God
—I know now, she’d say take time—
or some time we’ll need and want
God near.
No time for God?
What fools we are to clutter up
Our lives with common things
And leave without hearts gate
The Lord of life and Life itself
Our God!
No time for God?
As soon to say no time
To eat or sleep -or love or die.
Take time for God,
Or you shall dwarf your soul,
And when the death angel
Comes knocking at your door,
A poor misshapen thing you’ll be
To step into eternity.
No time for God?
That day when sickness comes
Our trouble finds you out
And you cry out for God;
Will He have time for you?
No time for God?
Some day you’ll lay aside
This mortal self and make your wav
To worlds unknown
And when you meet Him face to fac r
Will He—should He
Have time for you?
Friends, I don’t think shed’d 1 wan'
you all to keep on grieving for h' 1 '
<for she’s better off than we), bir
I’m sure she’d not want you to for
get her and that she is beckoning so
you to meet her, and to live for Jesus
I know some day I shall see her
for I know I have a Savior who ha r
died for mv sins and he is at the righ*
hand of God interceding for me and
all my trust is in Him and I praise
God for it all.
One who loved her,

One Author in California Employs a Secretary and the Secretary Drives His
Own Automobile, a Late Style, While the Author Rides Around Town on a
Dinwrle Tint Caomc \A/rr*nn trt M m
Bicycle. That Seems Wrong, to Mt.
SHOULD A SECRETARY BE
DECORATIVE?
By NEIL STAFFORD
I HAVE always admired private sec
retaries and there are several
good reasons why I haven’t one
myself, but the main reason is
that my wife is opposed to it. She be
lieves I had better work along by my
self. That is, she declines to let me
have the kind I would prefer. I could
step out and employ a male secretary
any day and the wife wouldn’t even
look askance, but I could never see
any sensible reason for hiring a male
secretary.
I know exactly the kind of secretary
I would like to have, if permitted. She
would be definitely young and ener
getic, as an old secretary is the same
as an old razor blade or an old orchid,
and she would have attractive yellow
hair, friendly blue eyes and as neat
a figure as any man ever saw in Kan
sis City. She would have an agreeable
voice, a cheery smile and dress nattily
in either blue or brown, and would
possess a visible culture and intel
ligence that would flabbergast bill col
lecors and other offensive callers and
leave them in wordless apology. On
days when I couldn’t work, she would
be able to do my work perfectly. Nat
urally, she would receive a handsome
salary, as she would he worth It.
I have sometimes thought of hiring
a gentleman secretary, but have alway
abandoned the impulse, for I am sup
posed to be a writer and not a solid
business man with an office on the
tenth floor, pearl push-buttons and
steel filing cabinets full of detailed
statistics showing how everything has
gone to h —l in the last six years.
Assume for the moment that I did
hire a competent male secretary and
paid him SSO a week, a reasonable
wage for a good one. What then?
Well, there would be week after week
when my hired hand would be drawing
down more money than the head of the
firm, and I could never tolerate that.
The busy executive, of course, must
have a capable assistant, and 1 would
say, off-hand, that the feminine secre
tary Is to he preferred.
It seems to me that the ideal secre
tary for the man o f affairs or ordinary
business leader is the tall, lean, an
gular and slightly scrawny female
wearing eye-glasses and a bit of dark
cord descending to her chest. This is
the kind that saves the firm hundreds
of dollars annually and well earns her
stipend. This type of secretary is a
thinker, usually with literary leanings,
and may be eithpr a perfect jewell
around the office, or a headache in high
heels.
The rosy-cheeked and blue-eyed sec
retary with a dimple can he as effi
cient as any other, but there is no way
to stop gentlemen visitors from chat
ting with her for long periods, when
she should be typing single-space let
ters to Chicago, or figuring out the old
man’s income tax. The doll baby in
business knows perfectly well that her
position is temporary, that she will
not always be a secretary, that some
day a handsome Sir Galahad will step
out of the elevator, see her and pre
pare for marriage, so her attitude
towards the job Is not as earnest as
that of the serious thinker in her later
years.
The very best of all possible secre
taries is the middle-aged woman, quiet
spinster type, who has been secretly
In love with her employer for many
years, keeps his photo at home on her
dresser, having purloined it from the
office, never makes a complaint over
long hours, never betrays by sign or
word the tremulous state of her feel
ings, and best of all, never asks for a
raise in salary. If the boss is a mar
ried man he is very often unaware of
the hidden adoration, although his
wife usually has her suspicions.
The understanding and thought
translating secretary is the sort any
business man is glad to have around.
She knows him down to the ground.
She comprehends that his bark is
worse than his bie. In comes a leter
from a gentleman in Seattle who
wishes to have ttie Old Man send him
to England to sell the Prince of Wales j
his wardrobe for the ensuing year.
The boss reads M and grunts. “Tell
this bird to go to hades,” says the
chief, throwing the letter across the
desk and the secretary sends Seattle: j
“Dear Sir: Replying to your kind let- |
ter of the sixth inst.. we are very sor
ry, but because of conditions in the
business at this time, we cannot han
dle your proposition. Won’t you please
take it up with us later.”
Consider the case of the fat gentle
man with protruding ears who has
been sitting in the reception room for j
weeks, waiting to interview the head j
man, who does not wish to be inter- !
viewed. The sevretary stands between
them and says in her kindly voice, j
leaning over a railing: "I’m sorry,
but you happen in at a bad time. He
has several people with him now. f
He’ll be busy until lunch and then he’s
going to Boston. Won’t you please j
write him a letter, explaining what |
you have in mind?”
When it comes to the telephone
ringers who call up each and every j
morning at eleven o’clock, the capable j
secretary knows the procedure and
saves her employer from wordy war
fare. It is generally a life insurance |
salesman with a grand idea concern- j
ing annuities or a bond salesman who j
cannot be stopped by fire or high wa
ter. She says: “I’m sorry, but he
isn’t in today. No, I don’t think he’s !
coming in. He may not be in this
week. Won’t you call again some
time?” The last is a needless request |
as it is one million to one, the sales- j
man will call on the morrow and pre- j
cisely at eleven. Furthermore, these
statements are not considered as false
hoods, nor is the secretary a liar, al
though her boss is sitting there at the
moment, glowering at her while she
talks. It is a definite part of the mod
ern business system and the lady is
often the very soul of probity and j
would never think of telling a delib- J
erate lie in her personal affairs.
After five years’ association with
her boss, the ordinary intelligent secre
tary knows as much about him as his
own wife and often a great real more, j
but she never says anything, and only ;
wonders at the singular transparency
and guilelessness of mankind.
Many of our leading authors depend
upon secretaries and couldn’t func
tion without them. Rupert Hughes has
had the same one for years, a young
man interested in literature, and as
Rupert is a prolific genius, the secre
tary is never idle. His working hours
are unusual, but he appears to like
his job. Mr. Hughes begins the day’s
chore promptly on the stroke of mid
night and pegs along until six in the
morning and then goes to bed. He has
done this for many years, sleeping
until noon. This working method, he
has figured out, gives him and his
secretary their afternoons for golf,
relaxation, movies and when they at
tend a formal dinner in the evening,
they can remain until eleven thirty,
which Is long enough and usually too
long.
W. S. Van Dyke, noted movie direc
tor, has had the same secretary for
seven years, a capable young woman,
who handles all his affairs. She de
clares he is the only man in the world
she is really afraid of, but she may
be fooling. A truly desirable secretary
Is the one that relieves his employer
of all responsibility, looks after his
business and social problems, pays
all his bills by check, and no matter
how heavy the Boss’ expenses may be.
always comes .up smiling with the
cheery information that there is still
plenty of money in the bank. If there
is such a secretary in the house, I’ll
take him on myself.

HOLINESS.
Text: Luke i:74, 75.
That he would grant unto us, that
we being delivered out of the hand
of our enemies might serve him with
out fear. In holiness and righteous
ness before him, all the day of our
life.
In the Twentieth century we have
many people who profess holiness.
There is a dozen or more organiza
tions that call themselves the church
of God and profess holiness and yet
it is impossible for them, all to be
right and I will prove it by the word
of God.
In Jer. xxxii:39, God said by the
mouth of the prophet, And I will
give them one heart, and one way,
that they may fear me forever, for
the good of them, and of their chil
dren after them:
If all the people who profess holi
ness were all of one heart, they would
not be divided as they now are.
In Eph. iv:24 we read, And that ye
put on the new man, which after
God is created in righteousness and
true holiness: If there had been no
false holiness the apostle would not
have specified the term TRUE HOL
INESS.
But we are bound to give thanks
always to God for you, brethren
beloved of the Lord, because God hath
from the beginning chosen you to
salvation through sanctification of
the Spirit and belief of the truth.
I have met many people who pro
fess holiness, and yet they would not
receive the truth of God’s eternal
word. |
We have another class of people
who call holiness a new-fangled way;
they say it isn’t over thirty years
since holiness first began to be
preached but according to Luke i:74,
75, and II Tim. 1:9. Holiness began
before the creation of the world.
Someone says, “You can’t live holy
in this world; there is no one who
doesn’t commit sin more or less ev
ery day!
But the Bible says in Titus ii:ll,
12. For the grace of God that bring
eth salvation hath appeared 'to all
men, Teaching us that denying un
godliness and worldly lusts. We
should live soberly, righteously and
Godly in this present world;
There are some who profess to be
Christians and yet they fail to bridle
their tongue, they tell smutty jokes
and speak evil of others when the Bi
ble says, But as he which hath called
you is holy, so be ye holy in all names
of conversation. I Pet. i:ls.
Holiness is more than a profession.
A Christian life is moi-e than church
membership.
There is no reason why the people
who profess Christianity should be
divided on the word of God unless it
is one of these: They either have a
spirit of error or they are not doing
the will of God.
Everyone who will not accept the
truth are worshipping in vain, and
if they are not going to bring forth
the fruits of holiness they ought to
take down their sign.
THOMAS D. LYNN,
Berryton, Ga.
LONG DELAY.
The reason for the effort to secure
a compromise with private utility
companies is that leial action might
be drawn out for several years, thus
handicapping governmental develop
ment of the TVA and other projects.
