| me Xingdom of israel reached -l
high state of presperity in the time oxl
Jercboam 11, and with it came & con
@itien of luxury, corruptiea and
wickednese. .
| The Judgment woe of tlvis, legson is
Mirected against the sins of the upper
wlasses in Samaria. The same sins are
Practiced in America, in the nation
#nd In the eburch, With the imcrease
of wealth in America bas come luxury,
eorruption and gross wickedness which
staggers the imagination. It behooves
all to give a listening ear, for God will
eventually enter into judgment. Our
lesson is & temperance lesson. Temper
ance applies to other things than in
dulgence in intoxicating liguor, Our
age is intexicated with pleasure, pur
suit of galn and selfish ambition,
. L. Reckless Security (vv. 1-3).
' They were blind to the perils that sur
‘rounded them. They were living in a
fool's paradise, closing their eyes to
the approaching storm of judgment as
predicted by Amos, They trusted in
the mountsing of Samaria for their
protection. They regarded thelr ecity
as lmpreguable. They no dGoubt re
garded -the -utterance of Amos as im
practicable—ihe dreams of a fanatic.
The tragic thing about this blindness
on the part of the chief enes of the
@ation was they were so puffed up
with pride that they falled to rudi
dhe signs of the times in the light of
Sdstery (v. 2.) The cities of Calneb
and Hamath, theugh great and mighty,
had fallen. Teo disregard the lessons
«f histovy, to dismiss the thought ef
Smpending judgment, is to bring near
She “seat of viclence” (v. 8). Let
tic Burepe and Russia be the red
:fi:a of warning te Ameriea, and let
bl mflu and class selfishness be
i sei » i
"I LiSury (v, 48). :
* “The luxury of these upper classes in
Hamaria expressed itself in: 1, Extrav.
agant furpiture (v. 4). They had beds
of ivery—perhaps wood inlald with
tvory. Costly as their furniture was io
‘that day, it was comqmonplace as com
pared to some of the expensive furni
ture and fittings in our great cities.
2. Laziness (v. 4). They stretched
themselves upon their couches—lived
lives of indolence. Such is the way
of many still,
3. Feasted on delicacies (v. 4). The
fmplication here is that they had their
dainties eut of season. This is what
smany of the rich pride themselves in
' 4 Adorn tkeir feasts with music
{v. b). They sang !dle songs—even in
vented musical instruments for this
purpose. They prostituted the noble
art of music to their sensual feasts
b. They drank wine (v. 6). They
were not content with ordinary drink
ing vessele. They drank from bowls,
indicuting excessive drinking. They
were 80 mastered by the intoxicating
<cup that their feasts which were
adorned with the refinements of music
ended in drunkenness.
lil. Failure to Grieve for Joseph
{v. 6).
Joseph here stands for Ephraim
aud Manasseh, his two sons, Eph
raim became the principal tribe
of the northern kingdom, 8o Joseph is
used as a synonym for the nation. The
upper classes were indulging In these
effeminate luxuries, entirely indifferent
to the groanings eof the masses. And
whenever such a condition exist in a
sation there is need of Amos to
thunder God's judgment upon those
who are gullty of it.
| IV. The Inevitabie lssue (vv. 7,8).
! 1. They 'shall go into captivity (v. 7).
{T'he northern nation was first in sin,
therefore first to go into captivity.
What a striking contrast this picture!
Justead of lying on ivory couches
feasting upon dainties, they are with
the suffering exiles.
2. The certainty of the issue (v, 8).
It is Inevitable because of God's na
ture. He i 8 & God of justice. He
has sworn that judgment shall fall
He is the God of hosts—the controller
of the whole universe, therefore none
ean escape. God hates the wickedness
of the world, and He will bring inte
Judgment the meén and women who
sevel In luxury with no concern for
ghe poor and needy. Though God
waits long, He does not forget. The
icmly escape for America is repentance.
! Abide in Him,
And now, little children, abide in
Him; that when He shall appear, we
suny have conmnfidence, and not be
ashamed at His coming.—l John 2:28
Great Mischiefs.
Great mischiefs happen more often
from folly, meanness, and vanity, than
from the greater sins of avarice and
sambition.—Burke,

INCREASING DEMAND FOR
MUSCADINE GRAPE CUTTINGS
There has been & great demand du
ring the past year not only for infor
mation on Muscadine grapes, but for
plants with which to start the busi
ness of grape production. Nursery
men have purchased large quantities
of cuttings from the cooperative vine
yard maintained at Willard, N. C.,
by the United States Department of
Agriculture and the North Carolina
Experiment Station. l
Muscadine grapes suffered less in
that section than any other locall
fruits from the killing frost last Ap-;
ril. In spite of the fact that the first
growth of the season was entire]yl
killed, a new growth from dormant
and adventitious buds resulted in an\
average crop, while many other fruits
suffered fromi 30 per cent to totali
loss.
Several years ago the home demon
stration organization started encour
aging canning club girls to grow Mus
cadine grapes and make such pro
ducts from them as jelly, grape juice,
conserves, jams and catsups. In Ala
bama the club girls have reached the
yoint of filling commercial orders,
while in ‘Georgia, North Carolina, S.
Carolina and Florida the planting of
anscadine grapes in home arbors is
being carried on by club girls who ex
pect to sell their products. The rail
voads have carried Muscadine grape
products on the diners for over a
year, and are continuing to do so.
Companies using Muscadine grapes
for preparing fruit flavoring sirup
dealcoholized beverages continue to
increase their planting and output,
and during the year have materially
increased their capitalization.
18 FOOT BRIDGES THE RULE
ON FEDERAL-AID ROADS
Few highway bridges with a width
‘of roadway less than 18 feet are now
being constructed on improved roads,
according to engineers of the Bu
reau of Public Roads of the United
States Tlepartment of Agriculture.
In the past some of 12 feet and a
good many of 16-foot width have
been constructed in an effort to econ
omize but is has proved short-sighted
economy. Only one line of traffic
can pass over a 12-foot roadway and
16 feet of width will not accomodate
two lines in safety. Many of the
States such as Pennslyvania, New
Jersey, Ohio and Massachussetts have
found it advisable in replacing old
bridges on important roads to make
them wide enough to accomodate at
least three lines of traffic.
DON'T PRUNE THE
SCUPPERNONG VINE
IN EARLY SPRING
Mr. H. P. Stuckey, Director of the Ex
periment Station of Georgia, gives
out the following instructions on
pruning and care of scuppernongs:
“A fundamental principle which
holds true with most of our horticul
ural crops is that any fruit which
is consumed almost entirely by the
producer never reaches a high stage
of development. Thus far this has
been true of the scuppernong, and
other muscadine grapes. Consequent
;ly for a long time this species of
grapes , native to the South was given
fnot particular study, and it was sup
posed that the vines could not be pru
ned for the reason that they would
bleed severely if cut in the late win
ter or early spring.
“Dring the past ten or twelve vears
careful studies of these grapes at the
|Georgia Experiment Station, have
shown that they can be pruned if the
pruning was done in the fall of the
year about the time of the first light
frost. If the vines are pruned much
'earlier than this, they are liable to
lbe injured from “sun-scald” due to
.

i MOTHER! CLEAN i
i CHILD'S BOWELS WITH ‘
i i
i CALIFCRNIA FIG SYRUP i
Even a sick child loves the “fruity”
taste of “California Fig Syrup.” 1f the
little tongue is coated, or if your child is
listiess, cross, feverish, full of cold, or has
colic, give a teaspoonful to cleanse the
liver and bowels. In a few hours you can
sce for yourself how thoroughly it works
all the constipation poison, sour bile and
waste out of the bowels, and you have a
well, playful child again.
Millions of mothers keep “California
Fig Syrup” handy. They know a tea
spoonful today saves a ‘sick child to
morrow, Ask your druggist for genuine
“California Fig Syrup” which has direc
tions for babies and children of all ages
printed on bottle. Mother! You must
say “California” or you may get an imi
tation tig syrup.

A PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, there is great suffer
ing among the Jeweish pecple of Eu
rope—thousands of whom are report
ed as being entirely destitute and in
a dying condition, due to the lack of
food and other necessities, and
Whereas, our own land has been
blessed with a prosperity that not on
ly guarantees our own safety, but
which enables us, and should impel
us, to share our bounties with cur
less fortunate fellow human beings in
other lands:
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Thomas W.
Hardwick, Governor of Georgia, do
hereby set apart by this proclamation
the week beginning Wednesday, Mar.
1, and ending Sunday, March 12, as
JEWISH RELIEF WEEK. I ask that
all newspapers of the State give wide
publicity to this week, devoted to
such a worthy cause; I especially ask
that on Sunday, March 5, notice to be
given in all the churches that the fol
lowing week be observed as JEWISH
RELIEF WEEK, and that all minis
ters, Sunday School Superintendents
and teachers and others, urge to their
people to seize this oportunity of
helping the suffering and contribute
to the relief of these worthy distess
sed people, so far as their menas of
;relief will permit.

the unnatural defoliation before cold
weather. If the pruning is delayed
until mid-winter or early spring the
vines will be injured by excessive
bleeding as soon as the weather be
gins to turn warm. This is especially
evident where it becomes necessary
to cut large canes.
‘“For best results the vines should
be planted in rows 10 to 12 feet ap
art and set 20 apart in the row. They
should be trained .and pruned regu
larly so that the cutting of a large
vine will seldom be necessary. The
renewal system is not so applicable
to the scuppernong as thg .Con
