THU^DAY, OCT. 19, 1933
THE JOHNSTONIAN—SUN. SELMA, N, C.
Exceptional 30-Day Qffer
Made By Johnstonian-Sun
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE NOT REDUCED, BUT A 50 PER
CENT DISCOUNT WILL BE GIVEN FOR 30 DAYS—
SAVE 50 CENTS BY ACTING NOW. THIS
OFFER WILL NOT BE REPEATED
The Johnstonian-Sun this week announces a 50 per cent re
duction in the subscription price, to extend over a 30-day period,
beginning tomorrow (Friday, October 6) and extending until
midnight Saturday, November 4.
During this 30-day period the price of the Johnstonian-Sun
will be 50 cents for one year to every person who is a sub
scriber paid to date, and to all new subscribers. The John
stonian-Sun will not accept any renewals for more than one
year at this rate, and none for less than a year.
The publishers have made this offer primarily in the interests
of the readers of the paper. At 50 cents a year, the cost to the
reader is less than 1 cent per week, and it is an impossibility
for the publishers to print and mail at this price and hope to
make a profitable return.
However, because of the low price of commodities in general,
with particular reference to farm products, the publishers have
decided on this offer as a means of combatting depression.
Every person interested is urged to take advantage of this
offer during the 30 days in which it is to be made, because it
will not again be repeated. The subscription price of the Johh-
stonian-Sun is not being permanently reduced, but will remain at
$1.00 per year. It is therefore imperative that all those who
intend to take advantage of this offer do so before the time
limit expires.
The government not long ago raised the rate of postage on
second-class matter in the mails. Newspapers i travel as second-
class matter. This newspaper was affected, a, new burden be
ing added to the expense of operating. Most’ newspapers use
newsprint made in Canada, because of the fact that there is
an insufficient supply in the United States to meet the de
mand. The Canadians take their little bit in, the form of ex
port duties, adding more expense to the operating charges.
There are many other equally significant factors,but space
limits us to these.
Laying the above facts aside, the publishers believe that the
home community newspaper is worth $1.00 a year of any
body’s money, on its general merit. Any commodity requiring
the labor, intelligence and capital investment that is embodied
in a newspaper is certainly worth 8 1-3 cents a month.

A WOE TRAILED BY TWO
THEREFORES
(By REV. D. H. TUTTLE)
Isaiah 5:11-14—Woe unto them
that rise up early in the morning,
that they may follow .strong drink;
that continue until night, till wine
inflame them!
And the harp and the violin, th
babet, and the pipe, and wine, aie-
in their feasts; bm they regard not
the work of the Lord, neither co?i
sider the operation of hi.s hands.
Therefore my people are g-one in
to captivity, because they have no
knowledge and their honourable mei
are famished, and their multitude
dried up with thir.st.
Therefore hell hath enlarged her
self, and opened her mouth with
out measure; and their glory, and
their multitude and their pomp, an(!
he that rejoiceth shall rescend inti
it.
Woe means God taking ven
geance. Let a s'nner go .so far am’
there suddenly stops him by death,
Prov 29:1. He that being often re
proved hardeneth his neck, shall ud
denly be destroyed" ,and that witli
out remedy. Did you .see?
No remedy, over and down
bank—a head on colli.sion or aga'nst
a tree or po.st Do you read? Will
you heed ? Rises early in morning
continue.s till night follow’ng- strong-
drink in a staggering- car that kills
or he .gets killed, or both, And
your voter wants to enlarge this
sort of dr'nk devilment Hear me!
■God’s vengeance will be on your
track November 7th.
THEREFORE:
My people are gone into captivi
ty via electric eha'r vengeance of
God. Into captivity of povertv with
it=' hunger, rags, filth of life in
person and home ;neglect of mind
and consequent ignorance; neglect
of soul—its hard life—the way of
the transgressor is hard—its eternal
damnation for no drunkard can
enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Gal.
5:23.
THEREFORE: Hell hath enlarged
herself—grown bigger—taken away
all mouth limit to accomodate the
beer, wine, liquor, of all kinds
crowd—whiskey, rye, com, molasses,
rum creating a bum; apple brandy
and peach, within reach of every
body—then mix all and another
WOE comes on the hell moving-
scene for “Who hath woe ? Who
hath sorrow ? Who hath contentions ?
Who hath babbling? Who hath
wounds without cause ? Who hath
redness of ^yes ?
They that tarry long at the wine-
they that .go to seek mixed wine.
Here comes actual prohibition—
are you heeding as you read? Look
not thou upon the wine when it i;
red, when it giveth its color in th
cup. When it moveth itself aright
for “at the last it hiteth like
serpent, and stingth like an adder'
and yet—are you thinking? Yo
voter-man or woman, father, mother
brother, sister, friend, neighbor, you
are going to endorse thi mixture o^
excrement of fermentation germ.--
with your vote on November 7th—
are you? Stop ,think,—again, once
more ,and what have you done
\V hat sort of a crowd are you with
and in Helping- who? Devil or
Christ Jesus? Six other woes. All
on eternal torment broad hard-sur
faced way—crowded with men,
women, young and aged who “re
gard not the work of the Lord; and
their glory and their multitude and
their pomp, and that voteth them
shall de cend into it, and the bit
terest pang, keenest ag-ony of the
anguish crowded spirits will be the
craving- appetite for strong drink
oeyond strength of beer or wines
the finest sort of brandies, whiskies,
n a land when prohib.tion excludes
water—even a drop for parched
tongues.—Luke 10:23-24.
