Yet it would attract a (Srge number who never at- , tend the regular church services. Others who do attend anyway would not miss it for the world and a few ardent worshippers who would never tolerate such a thing would attend to convince themselves it was really true. There is no question as what the effect would be on the attendance. "?Veil, all that is just supposition. It will never happen in Brevard any way. But headlines in the daily peters- state that certain ministers At-- in favor of bringing night club music into the church. That's the first step and then .... The churches are designed to draw men to then). They are for the pur post ?. J drawing men to Christ. If the ministers have reached the point where they are unable to make the story of Christ interesting they had better give way to other ministers ?who can. Either that or convert the thurch into a theatre altogether rath er than mix religion with worldliness. Such fantastic ideas can serve only one purpose and that is to cause people to lose their respect for the ?hureh, for the minister and even for Christianity . * ? Man has not gone so far that he ?r. not be reached through the same methods which Christ employed in his ministry. That same story of the Savior which has been told and re told for nearly a thousand years is stili inspiring, and men love it as mu'jh today as they ever did. It is not the teachings of Christianity that have "gone sour." It is the manner in which the ministers present it. Men and women who must be drawn into church through "Night Clyji Music" and mo'dern "Jazz" music and similar features will hardly be drawn to the lowly Savior, who, they will find, is so greatly different from the thing* of the world. Ministers who advocate such a pro cedure are no doubt worried about the financial end of the matter and propose these measures more to fill the plates than to fill the church. They are not worth of the name of ministers. The thing that worries the -average editor nowadays is what to fill up his paper with since the elections are wr- i.'i i.j Scientists have proved everything they have said about evolution ? just as the political candidates have prov en what they said about each other. ! Headline says man slot in the ex- j change ? better results ;'.re usually, secured by shooting in thj heart. The weakest woman, if she be ; pretty. can lead the strongest man A3tra^ Isn't it odd ? there's only one cure , ioc a women's broken heart and that's money. And there are lots of , them who make a business of getting i their poor little hearts broken. They find it profitable. Headline says peopie stop spending . much money for thing3 that are ? not necessities ? the tax-payers have been saying that a long time but it hasnt helped much. Nature provides us with a system ef equalization ? if we don't develop one part of our body some other part is developed to a proportionately larger extent ? that's why so many people have little brains and big mouths. George Bernard Shaw says it some times takes four years for even a small percentage of the public to rise to the level of his plays ? if we said something like that we'd be called noneeited. The Marietta (Ga.) Journal uses es expression "Free Gratis for nothing" ? we suppose that must mean without cost, duly emphasized. With politics and the depression fioi!' ended what are people going to laik .ab'.'Ut? AGRICULTURE IMPORTANT IN DEVELOPMENT OF NATION Someone has aptly said that agri culture is the- backbone of the nation. That weuid imply that it is of great importance. Bat as our backbone ia taken for granted,, never calls for attention, and continues to be an im portant part of our physical anatomy, without being constantly brought to our attention, so is agriculture. But when something goes wrong, it is serious. And now the nation's back bone has gotten out of adjustment. It needs attention and when the back bone needs attention it must have it if things must function properly. People have moved off to the cities and left the farms. Now they are broke and they cannot buy the things they r.eed from those who remained in the country and the farmer suffers because of it. The farm differs from the city in that the man who is willing to work and earn what he eats. He may have nothing more than the very essen tials of life but if he does not get these it is his own fault. This is not the case with the city dweller. When he is out of employment he is out and he has no means of securing the nec essities of life. Realizing this there is a "back-to the-farm" movement. People who must choose between the "attrac tions" of city life and the "hard labor and privations" of the farm are choosing the latter. What this move ment will mean is difficult to predict. It is safe to assume, though, that the thousands in the south will remain on the farms when they return. And the experiences they have gained in the cities will stand them in good stead. They will be better farmers because of this experience and they will make the farms more attractive to their youngsters. The nations back-bone has been out of adjustment and now it is being treated and with its return to normal Die entire nation will have gone a long way toward a restoration of some semblance of the prosperity which was once its boast.

Poole I TODAY'S NUISANCE is that thfc people casted their votes at the VFrong time. They should have changed the time of voting from sunup to s'tin dowr. to sundown to sunup, because the Roosevelt crowd were ashamed to vote in the day time ana the Hoover supporters were tor. ragged to vote at that period. We predict that both parties would have polled a greater vote if they had done this. All the disturbance that I have ever heard, was displayed down at the football game Friday when Wiliie Kate Waters, and Lois Barnett put up a fight for the Democratic party against Nell Duckworth, Delin Booth and a few other Republican boosters ? Practically all participating in the fracas were not old enough to vote but had probably been taught by their parents to back up their party ? After hearing them slam both parties like they did, I came to the conclusion that neither party deser ved their votes. BELIEVE IT OR NOT: On Fri day night of last week we happened to drop in the Canteen to enjoy one of "Docks" appetizing sandwiches and to our surprise we found Glen Burrell and Roy Burrell listening to a Hoover speech and seemed to enjoy it very much. I Now the election is over and we ! would like to know what the people j of Brevard will fuss, cuss, discuss and talk about ? Elizabeth Mills says : that the women will probably take ] up their old habits and continue to 1 gossip. : i DAVID PRICE and Walter Clay ton proved to be the stars in the foot j ball game played here Friday be ! tween Brevard and Franklin and did j they shine ? They starred so much I that the Franklin boys really thought I they were seeing stars in the Heavens , and you can bet your boots that these ' two boys were in their Seventh I Heaven. Saturday night there were two 1 Bozos at the Democratic meeting who | seemed to be members of the "funnel ! gang' and displayed considerable ; racket in the rear of the court house while the party was producing their J speeches. ? It was learned that the j theme song of their gang will be the ; "Brcotk of a Motion." SOMETHING very disgusting to Uncle Sam and very economical to Ed Wike and Jack Trantham is to correspond with each other in church and not use postage stamps. WE ARE NEARING the time of Thanksgiving when we all give thanks for what we have received in the past. We know that there will be a siam on this for there are so many that have not received anything in the last year and will not feel like being thankful, but this is not politics I and we are to be thankful for what we have received from a political j standpoint, but. be thankful for what j God has done for us. The following are a few things that we are thankful for and each para wiil use this head to start the article, | WE ARE THANKFUL: That we do not have politics to con tend with every year. That we are single men during such a disastrous period of depres sion. That the girls do get a break every now and then and be able to propose to the boys by having "Leap Year." That we are having no bank fail ures here in Brevard. That we have Miss Ponder, of Pen rose, to bring us news on Alonday ? Frequently we wish that every day could be Monday. To hear speeches over the radio be cause it saves lots of men from em barrassment, they not being able to hear what the people are saying about them. That women do not have control of the world, do they would run it ip the ground like they do when they hear something disreputable about people in their home town. That the president, like a king, does not have the authority to run the j nation alone like 100,000,000 people out of the 125,000,000 people in thc United States think. That this is a free world ? Bot if you get anything free you will have to steal it. To hear that Thanksgiving is near because we might be able to got. an invitation to dine out, but will be moreso thankful if we do not have the toothache to eliminate us from en joying it. That the price of wearing apparel is not going up any higher, if it does the girls will be wearing bathing suits to avoid the cost of so much cloth. That Brevard had the street lights on Tuesday in the daytime so the drunk? could fee how to get around. That "we don't get al! wrapped up in the good looks of a giv! like {A. Lounger) did Monday >-ht at the school house, while assist) f t? a mar ried lady with her wraps. He was so carried-away with her looks that were visitors of the latter's 1 j parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Orr Sunday Mrs. Sherman Pearson of Brevard wa3 visiting in our community Tues- ; day and says that "like candidates | wives preachers, wives should be in clined to visit with the people j especially the kinsfolk . , We are informed that the stork ! visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. | Luther White Monday night.
