And it does not do those they accuse much good to say that they also long ago lost interest in and severed their con tactions with the Communist party or turned complete ly against the Red philo sophy.

That first sentence, suspended on two years probation, was given eigh teen months ago, and so had six months to run at the time of the second con viction.

She is a rel ative of a dear /rind, and we have followed every development in her story, This young wife is twenty sight years old, has three young children and has been living for the day when her husband would finish dental school and. open his office. Toward this goal she has worked diligently. One day last winter, she wa* standing on a corner waiting for the traffic light to change, when a car mounted the sidewalk and ran into her, inflicting such seri ous injury that it was necessary to amputate her left foot. The spirit of many a young person would have been weighted down with the thought of such a loss. But her first, reaction was to ex press the hope that this new complication in their lives would not interfere with her husband's finishing his dental course. Her next concern was for the driver of the car, who happened to be a young Mexican boy. In her sec lion of the country, Mexicans are victims of considerable prejudice* Throughout the ordeal of sur gery and constant pain, she has remained cheerful to a point where her family often felt that she was playing a part and would one day break down. Such a re action might well have develop ed, for no mater how strong the conscious desire to bear up under adversity, there often comes a time when even the indomitable spirit suffers a temporary set back. But not once has this young woman, who had been so active and so fond of dancing, expressed anything but concern over tht trouble which she has had to put the whole family. And, whenever any of her rela tives put nn a doleful face, she chides them saying. "After all, isn’t, it fortunate it didn’t happen to my head!” This young mother has main THE CAROLINIAN near the Mississippi and other livers harbored great. cotton plantations, were, aivordLng to reports, primitive, almost ante bellum conditions existed well into the first third of the twen tieth century- The paper-back classic of a generation or more ago, "On a Slow Train Through Arkansas,” expectation for enlightenment, did little to enhance the state’s 45 ever heard of the volume,) lit is doubtful that many under Rut what about modern Ar kansas? It will be recalled that the medical school of the Stan University was me of the fut, of any state institutions of the South, to admit a Negro student As we recall, it was a young wo man at that, and she was gradu ated some time ago For the past ten years there has been little news of atroei us or even aggravated racial fric tion emanating from Arkansas, instead, we hear that the state university is full of Negro stu dents every summer. The head of the .Negro land giant college, we nave heard, is a candidate for the PhD. degree from tee University of Arkansas. In such respects the erstwhile “back ward" state seems to be ahead rained her cheerful attitude and even while still ui the hospital, was planning for her return home, and was figuring out how she could be as self-sufficient as possible. She is home now, and only regrets that she cannot yet take on her .full household re sponsibilities, Her latest brief communication contains the cheerful notes; “I'm so happy. Tho doctor says I can soon be fitted for my dancing foot.” end SENTENCE SERMONS FORGETTING 1 This common word of sev eral letters bespeaks some sha dows and some pleasures, covers a multitude of sins, veiled be neath some snules or melancholy grins. 2, Some of these facial expres sions carry the earmarks of un fair intentions, that rob the pos sessor of everything fine, and leaves him in old age to fret and pine, 3. But the greatest mistake any human being can make while dwelling here in the earth, is to foregt those less fortunate ones who too are here by natural birth -- Indeed, we must not forget that we are our brother's keeper, and go seeking comfort for our selves alone; but. in every way humanly possible give bread to the neighbor, and not a stone. 5. Forgetting to do good and living in a. shell, allow ing the world to pas* by, is certainly no part of a hu manitarian, but quite befit ting for a Satann- spy. 3- This is the vital moment when a man should forget, if such sad mistakes he has made, and start anew for the living God and strive toward a heaveiitiv grade. 7.

Arkansas: "A small country church in a farm community near here made history., . when it opened its roils this month to 10 Negroes." "At Little Rock, Dr B H. Dun can, editor of the Arkansas Bap tist. said he believed the Oak Grove con,:.rogation is the first racially mixed membership in an Arkansas church affiliated with the State Baptist Convention ' Dr. Duncan proved himself to be a master of understatement- If the story is true, the country Baptist church may be the only one oi its kind of any denomina tion other than Roman Catholic, in the real South What a contrast between "backward’' Arkansas and "liber al” North Carolina, in the latter of which three student workers wet e recently let out by action of hig ii Baptist of lie ails in a star chamber trial, a- least part ly because they believed in stu dent fellowship between wrote and Negro Baptist young people. "Isn’t it wonderful to belong tc rush a big, warm, friendly fami ly as ours?" There are people who say to day's women aren’t as good as grandma-that today's female is made out of synthetic material.

Lacking this dynamic flow of energizing power, the poor weakling and wavering soul, to v ard the world begins to grow sour 9. What a tragedy when one loses his wav because of tit ink ing' only of his own selfish aims and rates of pay; forgetting to do the more heavenly chores, that Providence might open more un expected doors. 10. Yes, what a pity for such as these, old age seems to spec cl around, and stilt finds them wholly unfit to receive a heavenly crown. II- But some just won't let Satan decoy them with his be v,’itching enchantments and tinsel --but fight the good fight of faith, until all Hell begins to tremble. 12. Listen now to St. Paul who did just this, even coming to grips wi h the beasts of Ephesus, “forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which ore be fore, 1 press toward the mark foi the prize of the high celling of Clod In Christ Jesus.” (Phil 3:U --14) GORDON HANCOCK’S BETWEEN the USS ‘ THEORY OIN REVERSE A theory of the rise and fall of theories would make interest ing reading.
