SWANNANOA NEWS SECTION > Students And Teachers Buy Bonds To Operate 21 Beds At Moore Students and teachers of nine North Carolina Schools, two of them in western North Carolina, I have bought enoguh war bonds and stamps during the current: school session with which to spon- ’ sor the operation for one year of 21 beds in Moore General Hospit al, Allison James, executive man ager of the State War Finance Committee, Greensboro, has in formed Colonel Frank W. Wilson, the hospital’s commanding officer. The cost of maintaning a bed for a year is estimated to cost approximately $3,000. Central I High School in Lenoir is sponsor-! ing six beds and Baldwin School. in West Jefferson is sponsoring one.

OUR SHORT SERMON IS PROPHESY BEING FULFILLED “At the time of the end” (Dan 12:9), Daniel says, “Many shall j run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” (Dan. 12:4.) This prophecy is being literally fulfilled in the restlessness of so ciety to be on the “go” and to; increase knowledge. Every quart-1 er of the globe is being traveled.! The frigid poles are becoming, nearly as well known as the trop-. ics. The nations of the world have become one great family known to one another? '} though very quarrelsome ana jealous of one another, yet they have a close relationship in com merce and communication. A half century ago, little was known of the world and science compared to what is known today. Children before reaching their teens are now using scientific terms that our elders had no intimation of a few years ago. Centuries before Christ came, Nahum prophesied, “The chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his (the Lord’s) pre- 1 paration. The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall post!*' (clash) one against another in the broad ways (arterial high ways); they shall seem like torch es, they shall run like lightnings.” (Nahum 2:3, 4.) It does not require any stretch of the imagination to see in this prophecy the present means of rapid locomotion. The word char-, iots may be interpreted in present day language—autos and airplanes —and we have it. Their lights and speed carry out the literal fulfillment of the vision of the 11 burned match stubs would have meant nothing whatever to the average person, but to Inspector Tope they spelled MURDER! This mystery story, by that master of mys tery fiction, Ben Ames Williams, will take you over completely. Don’t miss it SERIALLY, IN THIS PAPER THE BLACK MOUNTAIN NEWS prophet concerning the last days. Broken Down Morals “And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married | wives, they were given in mar riage, until the day that Noah en -1 tered into the ark, and the flood j came and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they | drank, they bought, they sold, i they planted, they builded; but j the same day that Lot went out of Sodom,, it rained fire and brim ; stone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” (Lk. 17:26-30.) Seeking after material things, gratifying the carnal appetites and living for pleasure, seems to jbe the chief occupation of the 1 earth’s inhabitants. In most in stances the moral law of God is little regarded; so that respect for God and His institutions is con sidered out of date, even among so-called religious people. There seems to be a new code of laws | taking the place of the Divine > precepts: “Indulge all the carnal i desire to the fullest extent possi j ble, even to physical and moral destruction.” Jesus says this will be the condition of affairs when : He is revealed—eating and drink | ing, marrying and giving in mar riage, buying and selling, plant ing and building—no concern at all for the immortal soul, and where eternity shall he spent. The advocates of a holy, conse crated life are the holiness peo ple. These are expected to be highly exemplary in Christian de portment; but, as this age is rap idly drawing to a close, even they are becoming more and more di vided • great numbers have lost j their first love; their fervency of the spirit for the salvaton of oth ers is waning; they are rapidly inclining toward worldly conform ity, and are losing sight of the j needed preparation for the recep- I tion of Jesus when He makes His 1 appearance for His Bride. Many who were consecrated and | alive to God’s interests a iew years ago, and were living self- I denying and self-sacrificing lives, ■slaw ' -.vc.-v - >■ vc «'••••• instances, are now living in lux ury—going after worldly gains. Even many of the holinses minis ters who. at one time, were hum ble and self-sacrificing, are now I hirelings in the service; they seek t lucrative positions; dabble in ! speculative, religious philosophy, t and conform to the world, com i promising the Word of God in or der to obtain the commendation , | of the world. 1 “There shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their j own lusts, and saying, Where is 1 the promise of his coming?” (2 , Pet. 3:3, 4.) “But, beloved, re member ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own un godly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, hav j ing not the? Spirit." (Jude ?" 1# > J Evolutionists ant* higher cnnc. are scoffing at God’s word; mock ers at the true devoted followers of Christ are increasing in num bers; the fear of Divine retribution has nearly ceased • and many pro fessors of religion are engaged in lustful pleasures of life, willingly ■ ignorant of Christ’s coming, heed less of His solemn warning, “Be l ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.” | PROMOTED TO THE GRADE OF CAPTAIN 0 1 Dr. Francis A- Caccavo, whose ' wife is the former Miss Willa ' Chamberlin of 31 Highland Ave., Barre, Vt., has been promoted to the grade of captain of the Army 1 Medical Corps, Col. Frank W. Wil ’ son, commanding officer of Moore General Hospital, announces. > Captain Caccavo has been on '] active duty since October 5, 1944. 1 He has been stationed at the sta ‘ tion hospital at Fort Knox, Ky., ' at Carlisle Barrack, Pa., where 1 he attended the Army Medical Col lege; at Vaughan General Hospit ' al, Hines, 111., with the 303 d Gen ’ eral Hospital at Camp Shelby, • Miss., and with the Regional Hos ; pital at Shelby, with Kennedy ! General Hospital in Memphis, ' Tenn. He came to Moore General last June 28. Captain Caccavo holds a bache ' lor of arts degree from Syracuse 1 University and the M. D. degree from the University of Vermont College of Vermont College of Medicine at Burlington. He in ' terned in Salem Hospital. Salem, 1 Mass. He wears the American Theater ribbon and the Victory ribbon.

L. Connett, advisor, Hazle Shelton of Marshall, Coleen Lynn of Char lotte, Jenny Clevenger of New > port, Tenn., Jane Landers of Wal nut and Lallage Johnson of To • ledo. . Registration will be .jield in the Cspitol at 11 a.m. Friday.' ■ Caucus meetings for the nomina-i • tion of officers begin at 1 p.m., ■ and the first session convenes at • 2 p.m. 1' 1 Warren Wilson Dean To Work At Harvard » O Dr. H. W. Jensen, dean of War- ren Wilson college, left Wednes day to spend two months at Har vard University, where he will f work with Dr. E. C. Jeffrey of r Harvard and Dr. E. J. Haerth of 3 the United States Navy in bio ■ logical laboratories on a book en " titled “Chromosomes.” f , Sweet Potato Vine ; Makes Good House Plant 1 If you want to have an additional ■ plant for house or porch decoration, > > try growing a sweet potato vine in . water. You will need a sweet po . tato with sprouting possibiPties, a ■ (las* Jar with a medium-sized j mouth or a tall jelly glass and wa ter. Usually you can tell by close i examination of the eyes whether the ! potato Is capable of rooting and , developing sprouts. If a tall jelly glass Is chosen, be sure it is not too tall and slim, other wise when the vine starts making good growth it will become top heavy and upset the container. Se lect a potato of such proportions that one end will fit in the contain er, yet the shape of the potato will keep by far the greater bulk out of the jar. Place enough water in the jar so that the tip of the pota to just touches the water, and be sure that this water level is main tained. Set the container in a somewhat subdued light until you see tiny white roots forming in the jar. 1 This may take some little time, I often as long as three weeks. As the roots multiply you will see the eyes on the portion of the tuber that is out of the water slowly develop ing, but do not place the contain er in brighter light or expose it to sunlight until there is quite an accumulation of roots in the wa ter. As soon as sufficient root growth has developed, you are ready to encourage the growth of the vine. Place the container where die plant will receive abundant sunshine. As foliage develops, you will find that you must watch the water supply closely, as the plant uses an almost unbelievable amount of water. Where a small container Is used, it is often necessary to re plenish the water supply twice daily. PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION Wall Paper Must Be Washed With Special Care Washable wallpaper is like rayon In one respect. When manufacturers label it "washable,” they mean if the washing is done with care an common sense. The first caution dictated by com mon sense is not to rub hard. You want to clean the wall, not erase the Bowers or leaves of the pattern. Second point is to use rich soapsuds In cool water, so those flowers won wilt and fade. It’s important to wet first an area somewhat larger than the area to be washed. This will pre vent rings. Apply both suds and rinse water sparingly. Repeat this procedure, overlapping areas. For best results, wash the enure wall where spots must be removed. Otherwise the clean spot will show up the unsuspected film of soil on the remaining area. A sponge is ideal for the washing, for it sug gests gentle action, can’t acratch. It’s practically a must for the rinse because it soaks up moisture. Use the same relatively clean suds to remove finger marks from the wood work. T. B. Toxin Subtilin, an anti-biotic working on a principle similar to that of penicil lin, has been found to be deadly to mycobacterium, the organism which causes tuberculosis, it was announced by Dr. Anthony J. Salle, associate professor of bacteriology on the Los Angeles campus of the University of California. Although the new substance has not yet been tested for its effectiveness against tuberculosis in animals or humans, experiments in test-tubes had shown that subtilin is scarcely toxic to liv ing tissue in spite of its deadly ef fect on the tubercle bacillus. Ex tracted from bacillus subtilis, the so-called hay bacillus found in air throughout the world, subtilin has also proved effective against other bacteria, including streptococcus, staphylococcus, pneumococcus, and gonococcus, in test-tube experi ments. Tender French Fries For crisp, tender french fries, rinse the potato slices in cold wa ter, drain and dry them. Fry them right away, about a cupful at a time, in deep fat of about 375 de grees. Soaking tie potatoes in water for two hours before frying will make crisper, but will lower feavor and food value. The same ideas are good for shoestring po tatoes, made from thin strips of potatoes instead of the wedges used for french frying. Crisp-crusted hashed brown potatoes are tops in flavor, and answer a “left-over” problem as well. There is a trick to getting the crisp brown crust. Add a little hot water to the melted fat before adding the seasoned pota toes—about a quarter cup of water for four cups diced potatoes.
