WITH THE COUNTY'S COLORED PEOPLE By J. Af. HARRIS COLORED BOYS TO PLAY FOOTBALL HERE THURSDAY The Brevard Panthers have been rejoicing all week over the fact that they invaded the Seneca, S. C., Wild Catls territory last Friday and de feated them by a score of 12-7. The thing that makes them feel so proud is that this is the Wild Cat's third season playing football, while this is the Brevard Panthers' initial year. During the first quarter things looked somewhat dark for the Pan thers when the Wild Cats pushed over the first touchdown by the way of a beautiful criss-cross around left end, which left the Panthers dazed trying to figure out what had happened. The extra point was gained by a short pass over right end. The second period found the Pan thers gaining courage. They were putting up a stiff fight when Red snatched one of the Wild Cat's passes out of the air on the Cats' forty yard line and i*an for a touchdown after shaking looee all would be taeklers. The third period found both teams fighting in midfield, but in the fourth quarter things began to happen when the Panthers started to push their way into Cat territory. With all the reserve strength that cauld be put in to action the Cats were unable to stop the Panthers. When the time keeper gave notice that there were only five minutes more to go the Panthers became furious and every time tho ball was snapped by the Cats they were thrown for a loss. The > Cats made an effort to kick out of danger, but so great was the rush by the Panthers that the kick was short. Then Red Man had his hands on the ball again and with a quick pass to 1 Hefner who stepped across the goal : for tho final marker. With two and a half minutes to go all hopes were > lost to the Cats.

A PRAYER For the Blessedness and Sacredness of the Sabbath to the Children Most Holy God, I do thank Thee for the precious gift of the Holyj Sabbuth Day and the wonderful ' blessings of which it is the pledge. 1 1 thank Thee above all for its re- [ demption in the death of Jesus from ' the power of sin, and its restoration to us in the power and the joy of His Risen life. Oh, grant that each succceding Sabbath may lead me deeper into Thy rest, the rest of God in Christ, and so unto the Fellow ship of Thy Holiness and The Bless- : sdness, may a daily life, that seeks its only joy in Christ and is wholly ifielded to the spirit prepare me for keeping the day holy. Blessed Father, I specially ask for ' jrace to train my children to love ind hallow Thy Day. I know it i3 lothing but the joy of Thy presence . n my own life that can fit me for it. 3ive me this, and then give me the visdom, as Thy servant, to bring to I hem the sense of Thy Holy Will and ,< Thy Loving Kindness, in claiming 1 1 he day for Thyself, and then giving , t to them as Thy Own Day, thath he fear of grieving Thee, and the.] oy of pleasing Thee may each find lue place in their hearts. So may the 1 1 command and the promise, the duty 1 1 md the pleasure, be one with them, j 1 md their delight in Thy Day indeed | neet the promised reward. Then;' halt Thou delight Thyself in the i jord. Amen. ? C. D.
