A DAY AMONG
OUR FARMER
FRIENDS
Stopped in at the J. D. Hai
' relson home early one morning
Mr. Harrelson was ready for
fishing trip to Waccamaw wit
Short Strickland. He directed u
to the watermelon patch an
three nice ones were lifted. Hi
yard was full of fine fat fryer:
It is remembered that Farme
| Harrelson is the person who ha
I the turkey-chicks or chick-tui
^eys, mention of which appeare
some time ago .
FATHER AND SON?Emer
and Joe Hayes, father and soi
1 of the Freshwater section, cam
! to Whitcville Thursday. They r(
j vealed the information that the
were curing out their last bar
(of tobacco and that it was cui
ing up very nicely.
They also are feeding out foui
teen nice hog^ to sell as tops i
early September or earlier. En
ery Hayes is a person who everj
| body likes and the same ma
I be said of Joe. The longer th
acquaintance one has the strong
er the friendship grows. They at
good farmers and good people t
I know and hold as friends.
L. Y. WORLEY?Is about til
I busiest man in the country now
, i adays. Gathering and curing 2
acres of tobacco; feeding six c
seven hundred chickens, a fiel
full of turkeys besides a pastui
j of hogs and six or seven worl
i stock keeps him very much o
the go in spite of the fact th*
he gets plenty of - help and c<
operation from the good wife an
other members of that fine fan
; ily.
M. C. CARTERETTE?Seen i
Whiteville a few days ago Marvi
C. Carterette down in the Beave

SHEP HILBURN?We alwaj
enjoy stopping at the well b
the side of the roa.i and havin
a chat with Shep Hilburn i
the Hinson's Cross Roads ncigl
borhood. Shep is a young farme
headed for a success as a tille
of the soil. Although he is
young man in years he is ol
and experienced when it narrow
down to pro - bumper crops o
eveything he plants. He ha
"wound up" gathering tobacc
and is awfully glad of it.
The driveway from Wananis
to Lake Waccamaw is a thin
of beauty. The corn growing t
the right is pretty. Wonder whos
it is? Nature was certainly libei
al with her beauty when she wa
adorning Lake Waccamaw an
very kind in directing Clyde Cour
ci' and Frank Gault to her shore
to live and grow and prosper
In thinking of Lake Waccama\
our memory digs up H. T. Hooc
Hood is a person whom we sei
dom see. Maybe once every thre
or four years but each nieetin
is a delightful one and attende
with good fellowship.
J. E. Stephens of Evergree:
vicinity was in Whiteville recent
I ly and while here he reveale
j that his tobacco was curing ou
satisfactorily. Farmer Stephens i
paying a lot of attention to ho;
raising. At this time he is feed
ing 150 head, many of which wi
be tops in a short time.
Down in the Hinson's Cros

he read the piece about Dougal

Lesson
BV GROVER C. PHILLIPS
Bennett, N. C.
(Lesson for Sunday, August 10,
s 1941. Text: James 1: 17-22; 2:
s 14-17; 4: 13-17; 5: 12).
3 The epistle from which our
e present lesson is taken was written
by James, the Lord's broth"
er, and was addressed to "the
twelve tribes which are scattered
J. abroad" (James 1: 1). What became
of the ten lost tribes is
unknown but they are included
s in the letter. In it the apostle's
" earnest hope is expressed that
there shall be no discrepancy between
the profession of Christians
and their everyday lives.
^ He does not exalt works, but
e emphasizes that faith produces
good works.
s Those who lack wisdom are
s admonished to ask it of God, and
e are told that "Every good gift
r and every perfect gift is from
I above, and cometh down from
e the Father of lights, with whom
. there is no variableness neither
f shadow of turning". (James 1:
\ 17). In those days there was
r much persecution and to be a
r Christian was not the same as
it is today. James pleads for an
humble walk with God and for
steadfastness of conduct and purpose,
and reminds his readers
that God does not waver in His
goodness to them, but that only
good and perfect gifts come from
Him. He reminds them that it is
._ the divine purpose that they shall
, be "a kind of firstfruits of His
creatures" (James 1: 18), admonh
ishing them to "lay apart all
filthiness and superfluity of
j naughtiness, and receive with
meekness the engrafted word,
, which is able to save your souls"
T I (James 1: 21).
d One may claim to have all
.. ' taitn, but unless one's worKs snine
(j out because of his faith, that
j faith is wanting in his life,
y "Though I have all faith, so that
, I could remove mountains, and
ie have not love (charity), I am
nothing" (1st Corinthians 13: 2).
y Onifs faith will cause him to
n minister to the needy, and, if
.. the call of human suffering does
not touch a professor, then his
r_ profession is an empty one. The
n j believer is justified by faith and
"the love of God is shed abroad
r_ in his heart. This love impels
y him to good works.
ie Boasting in believers is scathr.
ingly rebuked by the apostle, and
"c the believer is admonished that
0 he should not project his fortunes
into the morrow, when he
1C knows not whether the morrow
will ever come. It is peculiarly
,0 unbecoming in believers to boast,
>r either of things already accomj
plished or of things they pro>e
pose to accomplish. Such boastc_
ing does not add to the believer's
n blessings nor enhance the beauty
lt of his character,
j. The grave and venerable broj
ther of our Lord does not close
j. his letter until he has spoken
against swearing and is very
emphatic in his denunciation of
n the growing practice among first>r
century Christians of binding their
' words with oaths as did the hea'0
then nations around them. He
tells them rather "let your yea
be yea and your nay nay, lest
ye fall into condemnation.

The lesson for you and me is

out in good deeds, while the believer
visits "the fatherless and
5t the widows in their affections,
and keeps himself unspotted from
the world." (James 1: 27).

3 Down around Porter Swamp
Mrs. Katie Benton is one of the
v more hustling farmerette's. She
j states that her tobacco is cur|.
ing up "pretty good" and that
e hcrpeaches and tomatoes are
g about "canned." It would be hard
d to find a young woman who has
more energy and good business
n judgment than does Mrs. Benton.
"Kitty" for a long time did
d "society on a Lumberton paper."
t A few warm days with sun
s shine have given the farmers a
g brighter and more optimistic out|.
look for the future. Tobacco is
II "coming out" on some farms that
suffered so badly from the efs
fects of too much rain. The
d crop, however wil lbe much smalt
ler in poundage this season than
d last year growers state,
t Mrs. Miller Gore was in town
i- a day or two seeling a large
quantity of corn when she found
a vast surplus accumulated on
her farms in the Reeves Ferry
h section.
