A MOUNTAIN BOOMER Administrator's Notice. Haying qualified as Administrator of Perry W. Bolick, deceased,Jate of Macon County, N. C, this is to notify all persons having claims against the estate 'of said deceased to exhibit them to the undersigned on or before tne 14th day of June, 1925, or this notice will be plead -in bar of their recovery. All persons indebted to said estate will please make imme oiate settlement. This 14th day of June, 1924. Jll : R. D SISK, Administrator, X-Ray Sermons A Disciples. When Jesus was ready k leave this vorld and go to the Father, lie came to group of His followers and gave this commandment and promise: Go ye and make disciples. of all na tions, baptizing them in the name ot the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe alt .tilings whatsoever I com manded you: and. lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." Since the Christ promised to be ever with those "who make disciples or Him, He will be with us to-day f we are carrying on this greatest of all works. : As the word "disciple" is not in every-day use among us, it may be worth while to consider .briefly what the term means. A disciple is almost the same as a pupil, but the disciples of old rendered more re spect and obedience to their masters than most pupils of to-day do to their teachers. The disciple had to learn to obey the will of the person whom he had taken 'as master. This is the relationship which each of us should beat to the greatest, of all Masters. Do wc learn something of Jesus' will every week of our lives? If a school child learned absolutely nothing in a week, wc might think him very lazy or' indifferent. And are we bringing others into the proper relationship with "Jesus? Re member that the barren fig tree was withered so soon that the disciples "marvelled:" One of the most beautiful promises in the Bible is : "Take my yoke upon you and learn of me and ye shall find rest for your souls." But to share in the blessing which Mary received for sitting at Jesus' feet and listening to His words, we must not read the Bible through the eyes of our preju dices. We must be converted and become as little children taking our Master's words at just what they mean and not huntine uo a little here or a little there to prove sornX idea which we have held already. If we have listened .to disagree ments between members of different denominations: until we think that the proper mode of baptism or the form of -church organization is the most important thing in religion, we need to read the very words of Jesus He said, "Blessed are the pure in heart," and declared that the two greatest commandments are those which enjoin a supreme love for God and love for our neighbors that is as great as our love of ourselves. Suppose that the students in one of the high schools should refuse to treat each other as brothers and should divide themselves into many clans because "they could not agree on the rules of the conduct which the founder of their school had laid down. Would you not think these pupils of a very peevish disposition? What then shall be think of ourselves if we refuse fellowship with those who like ourselves, are only disciples or learners in the great 'School of Christ? We do not profess to under stand God's will perfectly and we do not have any right to demand that our fellow-disciples sfiall have an in fallible knowledge of things of which our own knowledge is far from perfect, And suppose that we are perfectly sure that a fellow-Christian is-wrong in his understanding of some question like that of predestination. I do not believe that a simple-hearted Chris tian who "visits the widows and the fatherless in their affliction and keeps himself i nspotted from the world" will be lost because of lack of ability to understand Scriptural problems uur hearts, even more than our minds, should learn from Him "who went about doing good."
