IT'S DEVELOPING
Believe it or not: This thing
called school-spirit, that we've been
"squawking" about ever since school
started Is beginning to develop.
Yes, indeed, it's the truth! For
years Roxboro High has needed more
publicity and until now we couldn't
get enough people interested in the
school activities to organize a staff
for that purpose.
Friday mornin? Mr. Davidson
talked about it in chapel and it
was decided that the editor and as
sociate editor were to come from
the class of dignified seniors. An
netta Phillips was chosen as editor
in-chief and Margaret Anne Per
kins as associate editor There is to
be one reporter from each class and
the teachers have offered their as
sistance and cooperation.
Here's hoping they make a suc
cess of this, and now the thing for
the rest of us to do is to give our
full support. Are you with us?
CHAPEL EXERCISES .
The chapel exercises were con
ducted by Reverend A. J. McKelway
of the First Presbyterian church.
The junior class opened the program
by singing "Dixie," followed by the
reading of the Scripture by Rev.
McKelway. He gave a short address
on following the Golden Rule, and
closed with a prayer. His talk was
enjoyed very much by the student
body.
Several visitors were present, in*
eluding the Reverend Gibson of
Sanford.

brewed our fortunes in a pot and
then we had th* pleasure of an air
plane ride, bobbing for apples was
fun too. Annie Long Bradsher re
ceived the priz? for the best cos
tume: Frances Chandler and D'Arcy
Bradsher getting the prise for the
best couple. ,
Our faculty was well represented
and one and all reported a fine time.
The best came last. You guessed
it ? the eats! Pardon me! I forgot
I was a senior, the re-fresh -ments!
Juniors, you don't know how we
appreciate you!

Lesson
PAUL IN JERUSALEM
Lesson for Nov. 5 ? Acts 15:1-35
Golden Text ? n Cor. 3:17
We have arrived at one of the
most critical moments in the life of
| the early church. Both Peter and
l Paul had preached the gospel to
Gentiles with gratifying results.
I But the Christian Jews, in their
zeal for the Mosaic law, insisted
that while Gentiles could be re
ceived Into the church, they must
first be circumcised. This demand
Paul and Barnabas, in the name of
freedom, vehemently resisted. They
[did not want the Society of Christ
to be a mere Jewish sect, but a uni
versal community embracing all
men sharing the Master's faith.
How far-sighted they were! We
cannot be too thankful that, at this
. early stage, the fortunes of the
church were moulded by men of
?***?>** ? K the
the Christian movement might hare
narrow "Judaism" had triumphed, j
been condemned to perpetual ob- j
scurity. Fortunately, by the historic,
decision of the Jerusalem council, aj
broad and generous startegy deter
mined the future expansion of the
church. Instead of becoming the
private possession of a Jewish clan,
zealous for the legal tradition of
the old covenant, Christianity grew
into a world religion animated with
the spirit of a new and living way.
Thus was faith saved.
Note that both sides of the ques
tion were presented in the course of
the debate. Then James, the Mas
ter's brother, proposed an honorable
compromise. The Gentiles, he sug
gested, should be asked to observe
only four reasonable regulations
embodied in the Mosaic law. This
Judgment, really a victory for Paul,
but also recognizing a certain merit
in the position of his opponents,
was adopted and sent, in the form
of a letter, to the Gentile brethren
of Antioch and vicinity.
We have the right to consider
this letter a Magna Charta of our'
Christian liberties. The follower of.
Jesus is not under the yoke of any
ceremonial system, be it Mosaic or
otherwise. "A Christian man," said
Luther, the 490th anniversary of ,
whose birth falls on November 10th,'
"is the most free lord of all and
subject to none."

Popularity of the name Lafayette

MAKING FRIENDS
Who ckn estimate the value of
friendships? And surely the realm
of friendship is one place where
we depend on self; we would expect
no one to make our friends for us.
What a wonderful truth It is that
friendship survives death! One of
the great attractions of the realm
beyond the grave is the meeting of,
and associating with, friends.
Think of how it would detract from
the pleasant anticipation if we
feared that we would not find
friends in that throng.
Jesus tells us to make friends for
eternity. We read in one of His
parables of a man who was intrust
ed with the management of the
property 61 another. It was report
ed lo the owner that the property
was not being correctly handled. He
then told the manager to make his
report for he was going to discharge
him.
The steward or manager was
troubled. He knew not how he!
would make a living. He was not:
able to do manual work and he was
ashamed to beg.
He decided that he would win the
