BIBLE QUESTIONS
By THOMAS D. LYNN.
Q. What is meant by the Scripture
found in St. John vii :39, which reads like
this, “For the Holy Ghost was next yet
given; because Jesus was not yet glori
fied?”
A. In St. John xvi :7, Jesus said, “It
is expedient for you that I go away:
for if I go not away the comforter (which
is the Holy Ghost. John xiv :26) will not
come unto you; but if I depart I will
send him unto you. Jesus being glorified
signifies his death, resurrection and as
cension.
Q. What is meant by the saying of
Jesus, “And I, if I be lifted up from the
earth, will draw all men unto me” (John
xii :32) ?
A. The saying signifies his death. See
next verse, John xii :33, Some think it
meant to lift him up in praise; but that
is incorrect.
Q. What is meant by the saying of
Jesus, “If a man keep my saying, he
shall never see death.” John viii :51?
A. The death spoken of in this verse
signifies the second death spoken of in
Revelations xxi :8.
Q. How do we know that we love the
Lord?
A. He that hath my commandments,
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth
me: John xiv :21. If any man love me he
will keep my words: John xiv :23.
But whosoever keepeth his word, in
him verily is the love of God perfected :
hereby know we that we are in him. I
John ii :5.
He that loveth not knoweth not God;
for God is love. I John iv :8.
And this commandment have we from
him, That he who loveth God love his
brother also.
Q. Has the prophecy in Malachi iv :5,
concerning the coming of Elijah, been
fulfilled?
A. The following Scriptures show that
it has: Mark ix :11-14, Matt, xi :14,
Luke i :17.
Q. What high priest prophesied that
Christ should die, that the children of
God that were scattered abroad should
be gathered together in one?
A. Caiaphas. John xi :47-52.

Headache, Bad Breath
May Be Your Warning
The sea’s thrilling S. 0. S. means
“Help is needed now!” And, so do
most of those headaches, that bil
iousness, coated tongue, or bad
breath which are often signs of
constipation.
To disregard these symptoms may
bring on a host of other discom
forts from sluggish bowels: sour
stomach, belching, loss of appetite.

IN MEMORIAM.
On May 20, 1935, the kind gentle spirit
of Mrs. John Harlow slipped away from
us to be transplanted in that heavenly
home where pnin and earthly cares are
known no more.
If we measure time by years we find
that it has been almost four years ago
since we heard her gentle voice, hut the
memory of her is precious and her life
will always be a benediction to all she
left behind. Her children arise up, and
call her blessed. Our lives were made
riciher and sweeter by having known her
and we are made to exclaim:
Not lost, not dead, not gone, not even
sleeping,
Though we have laid her in the grave
with weeping;
No sharp despair our chastened hearts
can fill
For the memory of her is with us still.
In the stillness of that May morning
we seemed to hear her say:
I hear a voice you cannot hear,
Which says I must not stay;
I see a hand you cannot see,
Which beckons me away.
Mrs. Harlow was of the quiet type of
womanhood, always preferring to do her
deeds of kindness unnotied by others,
knowing that even a cup of cold water
given in her Master’s name would not
lose its reward. She believed that:
Beyond this vale of tears,
There is a life above
Unmeasured by the flight of years,
And all that life is love.
One would think as the years go by we
should cease to miss her, but how can
that ever be for she was such a dear
Christian mother, friend and neighbor we
have never found anyone to take her
place.
But, as I sit here weeping, it seems
that I can hear her say:
Sunset and evening star
And one clear call for me,
And mny there be no moaning at the bar
When 1 set out to sea. ,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the
boundless deep,
Turns again home.
Twilight .and eevning bell
And after that the dark.
And may there be no sadness of farewell
'When I embark.
For though from out the bourne of time
and place
The flood may bear me far;
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.
Written by her daughter-in-law,
MRS. ROBERT HARLOW.
Letter To the Editor
Menlo, Ga., May 11, 1939
Editor Summerville News:
With your kind permission I desire to
try,to express my deep gratitude to the
good sisters of the Summerville First
Baptist church —though I very well know
that I have not command of language to
do so adequately—for the large basket of
the largest variety and finest quality of
very fine fruit consisting of dozens of
fine apples, oranges, bananas, grapefruit,
lemons, etc., all the finest I have seen in
many days. This Christian token of their
thoughtful and Christian fellowship for
the oldest preacher in Chattooga county
literally overcomes me, conveyed to me
by Mrs. Leon Story, of Summerville, and
Mrs. Cicero Story, of Menlo. May hea
ven’s best blessings eve abide upon you
and all your Christian endeavors.
Most humbly,
J. W. KING.
P. S. —This recalls sweet memories of
similar token of esteem by many other
groups of our good Baptist women in
many localities in the way of “pound
ings,” showers, etc., where I have been
pastor for the past sixty years —since
1880.—J. W. K.

“BETTER EDUCATION FOR GEOR
GIA MOVEMENT”
(By Ralph L. Ramsey, Director)
The schools have sometimes been ac
cused of having “fads and frills” which
were expensive and unnecessary. In Geor
gia, this accusation has not often been
made because it is generally recognized
that we- have spent educational money
for those things which are absolutely es
sential. Some day, the matter of “fads
and frills” will be a subject of general
discussion, and looking forward to that
day, it might be appropriate to discuss
them calmly beforehand.
What They Are.
Whenever the tax load becomes heavy,
when business is bad. or perhaps when
someone needs a platform on which to
run for a political office, education
eomes in for its share of criticism. And
it should be criticised. At periodic inter
vals, all public institutions should be re
appraised. Education should not be hy
per-sensitive to criticism. If money is be
ing spent for things which are not nec
essary, education defeats its own purpose.
All such non-essentials are fads and
frills. However, we must first be sure
that the item mentioned is “non-essen
tial.”
What They Are Not.
Every business man and farmer knows
that new truths are discovered and new
tools invented which they must learn and
use. If he doesn’t adopt methods of con
trolling soil erosion, he loses hich land. If
he doesn’t diversify and have a wide
variety of foods for his table, his family
will be wiped out by the dread pellagra.
If the merchant doesn’t keep up with the
“latest thing” in business, his competi
tors will finally,drive him to bankruptcy.
These new methods and new tools are
not fads and frills. They are necessities.
The same thing often happens in educa
tion.
New Truths and New Tools.
The reader may be interested in what
some of the new tools and new truths of
education are. Before we do this, we
might point out that the following things
were once considered fads and frills:
home economic, manual training, physical
education, printed books, electric lights
in schools, running water, sanitation,
kindergartens, recess, and many others,
i Why, it wasn’t so .many years ago that
furnaces for school buildings were consid
ered non-essential.
All of the above are now recognized as
vital parts of all that we mean when we
say “school.” There are many other
things which are just now coming into
use, and many more things which have
yet to be discovered or invented. Let us
name some of these and discuss a few.
Psychology.
Within our life-time a new science has
been born—psychology. Modern psychol
ogy is only a generation old, but already
it has profoundly influenced our rela
tions to one another. It is a subject that
will soon be taught in all the public
schools of America, and it should be. For
thousands of years we have worried about
what went into our stomachs, and have
paid slight attentition to what went into
our heads. Because of this, although a
substantial portion of our population is
physically sick at one time or another,
the proportion of those who are mentally
sick is far larger. Because of the high
tension under which we live, the propor
tion is continually beoming even greater.
Mental hygiene is the answer to this
problem.
Some Psychological Truths.
Let us examine some of the truths dis
covered by psychologists. Many unbeliev
ers have scoffed at the healing miracles
of the Bible, but science has shown that
many people can be cured of certain
mental and physical ailments through
what is now called psychotherapy. It has
also been proven that the old saying,
“You can’t teach an old dog new tricks,”
is false. People continue learning into
very old age, and speed of learning is
not the same as knowing things. Prob
i ably the finest collection of brains in the
United States is the U. S. supreme
court, and at one time their average age
i was pyey W : Associate Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes and Associate Justice
Brandeis were both going strong when
they were over 70. Holmes, at 85, had
one of the finest brains in America.
It has been shown, too, that the educa
tion of the child in the first six years of
its life is more important than that of
any other period. Some day, educational
forces will have to lower the entrance
limit for this reason. It should be done
now.
One of the most important discoveries
was that “one learns by doing.” We are
even now in an educational revolution to
conform with this newly proven theory.
We have only recently become sensibh
in our attitude toward sex. It is better
to discuss such things scientifically than
to allow our children to pick up unwhole
some information in the streets, say the
psychologists. Recently, a book by Dale
Carnegie swept the country—“ How To
Win Friends and Influence People.” Ac
tually, this was nothing but the psychol
ogy in popular form. We should have the
same sort of information for our school
children.
