SUBSCRIPTION One Year $1.00; 6 Months 50c Entered as second-class matter July 4, 1929, at the post office at Selma, N. C. under the Act of March 3, 1879. THE LORD’S DAY FOR CHRISTIANS By REV. D. H. TUTTLE Why! Because the old order of things has been turned over, and a new order established—“We are not under one law but under grace.” (Rom. 6:14.) Blessed be God for the sweet assurance. Speaking of the old order of things God saitf thru His prophet, Ezekiel, “I will overturn,■ overturn, overturn it; and it shall be no more until he comes whose right it is; and 1 will , give it him.” (Ezekiel 21:27.) We see that this promise was fulfilled—Jew ish enemies of Christ said ao; “These that have turned the world upside down have come hither also.” Acts. 17:5, 6. Jesus said, “the fir.st shall be last, and the last shall be first, etc,,” and it came to pass that the 7th day, the last day of the week under the law, was set aside, and the Lord’s Day becomes the fir.st day of the week. We say then: 1 That the Lord's Day is the first day, is Christ’s day of Christians, and in sharp contrast with the 7th day which was given only to the Jewish nation 2. The Lord’s day was foretold prophecy. Psalm 118: 22-24. • ' 3. The law foreshadowed it as a thing yet to come. Col. 2:17. Lev. 23:10, 11, 15, with 1 Cor. 15:20. 4. It is the day on which we cel ebrate the resurrection of our Lord from among the dead each week, and annually at Easter. Mark 16: 1-2. As light was created on the first day, so Christ “the light of the world” rose on the first day. 5. Christ revealed Himself to His own on the first day—His first six appearances being on the first day. It was on the first day of the week that the Holy Ghost was poured out (Acts. 1:2) and on that day Peter preached the first sermon of the gospel dispensation, and it has been the “preaching day” since. 6. The Jews had to be command ed to keep the 7th day, while all genuine Christians delight to keep the first day, a new day, for a new creation in Christ. On this day the early Christians met to break bread and to worship. 7. Has not God wonderfully bless ed the preaching of the gospel on the first day, the Lord’s day? Is not Christianity in all lands the glorious result? All Jews who have tried to live the religion of Moses as under law, have preached and worshiped on the 7th day. What have they accomplished toward their own, or the salvation of oth- Then tested by the rule, “by Improper Storage of Cotton Costs More Raleigh, Dec. 27.—Dumping cot ton in the barnyard or under sheds but on the ground—in either case it is exposed to fire, theft and “country damage”—costs the farm er more than storing it properly in a bonded warehouse, according to A. B. Fairley, State warehouse superintendent since 1928, who ad ded that “especially is this true in a wet season such as we are having this year.” The old practice of allowing cot ton to lie around the yard or back lot, Mr. Fairley added, has' resulted in North Carolina alone “in the loss of thousands of dollars every year due to the cotton being weather- damaged, eaten by cows and other stock or set on fire by the children playing on or around it.” Colored School and Community News Edited by the Members of the Sen ior Class of the Selma Graded i | School—Surluta B. Bell, Editor- In Chief. Did You Know? Rural Citizens Seem To Have Most Money Burlington, Dec. 22.—Judged from the early patrons of the state motor vehicle license bureau here, in charge of W. Luther Cates, the ru ral citizen, financially, is in better shape than his urban brother. Rural citizens, in many instances, have displayed sacks and wallets well rounded out, not nearly as thin as the average urbanite. Many of the old .style “blanket” bills have been unhorded. Sale of the new city license tag, at a dollar for the driver’s license and nothing for the tag, is slow. Chief Carl Stanford reported to day. The chief said, however, that no drastic measures will be invok ed to compell the automobile own er to display the new tag until after the first of the year.

Meekins who held a session of the federal court in Greensboro the past week, at a meeting of a Greensboro business club explained the history, defects and good points of the jury sy.stera now obtaining in this country. The jury system originated in England in 1289, Judge Meekins said. Before this date accused per sons were tried by ordeals of fire, water or battle. If a man was ar rested for an alleged crime, he would have to stick his hand in boiling water. If the flesh burned, the man was considei’ed guilty. If the water did not hurt him then he was considered innocent and was al” lowed to go free. The speaker cited the case of the “man with the iron mask,” who stayed in a French prison almost all of his life without knowing why he was imprisoned or of what crime he was sentenced. Trial by jury is nearly humanely perfect. Judge Meekins said, adding that in all his years as an attorney and judge he can recall only one unjust verdict by a jury. , The most serious defect of the jury system is the antipathy intelli gent people feel toward serving, ac cording to Judge Meekins. A great many juries -are composed of court house loafers and people who are not at all qualified mentally to pas-^ upon complicated phases of the law, he added. It is an honor to serve upon a jury the speaker said, adding that citizens should serve when called and not back out of what, to many, is considered an ordeal. “Jury service is the most import ant service to man,” Judge Meek ins said.

To the right of your name on the label are some figures. The first figure or figures represent the month of the year—the figure I means January, 2 means February, 3 means March, 4 means April, 5 means May, etc, on up to 12 for December. The next figure after the hyphen represents the day of the month on which your subscription expires. The last figures represent the year in which your subscrip tions expires; that is, if the last two figures happen to be 32, this means that your subscription expires in 1932. Therefore, if we should have John Jones on our list and the label should read: John Jones 12-1-32, this would mean that his subscription expired on Decem ber 1, 1932. By watching the label on your paper you will be able at all times to tell just how your subscription account stands on our records, and if there should be an error by oversight or otherwise, we will thank you to so ad vise us in order that our records may be correct. I 4 The Johnstonian-Sun On Wednesday evening, December 21, 1932, the faculty and members of the Senior Class were entertain ed at the home of Mrs. Laura J. King. Instrumental ^olos were ren dered by Mr.s. J. F. Nicholas an.l Misses D. L. Bullock and A. L. Watson. The guests were surprised when Mrs. King ,«sked each of them to make a short speech. The hostesses were Mrs. King and Mrs. Turner. A delicious repast, consisting of punch, chicken salad, fruit salad and cake was served by the host esses. The Debating Club of the Selma Graded School met Wednesday, De cember 21, 1932, to discuss two im portant questions that have aroused the interest of the people all over the United States. The first que tion that was dis cussed was that which involves the Foreign war debts. The second dealt with the prohibition issue. These questions were .discussed from all angles by the members, of the club. The purpose of this meeting was to create an interest in the im portant national and international questions that are now current. Relieved By Taking Cardui I was weak and run-down and Buffered quite a bit with pains in my side,” writes Mrs. Nick Bar- ranco, of Beaumont, Texas. “I was . nervous. I did not rest well at night, and my appetite was poor. “My mother had used Cardui with beneficial result, so I decided to take it. I surely am glad I did, for it stopped the pain in my side and built up my general hsalth. I took seven bottles in all.” Cardui is sold at all drug stores.
