Weekly Devotional Column By James Mackenzie V- r Clarence Macartney tells how he went to a cemetery in Geneva to visit the grave of John Calvin. After much searching he finally found it, not far from a wall, covered with grass, shad ed by a cypress tree. Marking that great saint’s last resting place was a small black stone, hardly a foot high, with the letters “J. C.” carved upon it. Macartney says that his mind wan dered across the lake to a spot not far distant where rises the magnifi cent, costly, pretentious cenotaph of the Duke of Brunswick. But who to day, he asks, is the Duke of Bruns wick? Who was he then? Who Taylor Theatre EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA THiTrSDAYAND FRIDAY, AUGUST 6-7 Robt.

Who Cares? But the man whose initials art graven on that hum ble stone, in keeping with his theology which glorifies God and humbles men, has an influence far greater today even than when he was alive. John Calvin was one of the most ac tive men who ever lived. When he was only 26 he wrote the greatest work- on theology ever penned, com prising three huge volumes. He wrote these in French and translated them into Latin. Though he died at the age of 53 he found time to write com mentaries on every book in the Bible, to this day the most exhaustive and scholarly commentaries in print. In addition to this he preached over 300 times a year to the same congrega tion, most sermons lasting upwards of two hours. But that’s not all! He lectured to college students 180 times a year, performed pastoral functions, carried on a tremendous correspond ence, and administered the affairs of the city of Geneva. In hie spare time he wrote theological pamphlets. Cal van was God’s man in God’s place at God’s time. But circumstance alone is not the measure of greatness, and the secret to success is hard work, for: A noble life is not a blaze Os sudden glory won, But just an adding up of days In which good work is done. And the reason God was able to use Calvin in such a remarkable way is that he put that beaky old nose of his * to the grindstone and keyt it there. Historians tell us that John Calvin influenced our modern concepts of de mocracy and individual freedom more ; than any other man. They say that to . understand liberal democracy you , must first understand Calvinism. In . deed, the American system of govern- , ment is patterned after Calvin’s sys- , i tern of church government. Further, ] ; the very foundation rock of Calvinism ( l is the Scriptural truth that the in- \ ■ dividual is responsible to God alone, < ■ and this is only possible in a democ- , : racy. Spanish tyranny in Holland ran < l aground on the sturdy rocks of Cal- ( , vanism, and Spain collapsed.

Pio neer missionaries of the cross, men like Carey, Judson, Livingstone, were all Calvinists, as have been a good share of our great evangelists. When the great William Carey, an ardent Calvinist, lay dying, a young co-worker stood by his side praising him. “Speak no more of William Carey,” admonished the devout Chris tian, “but speak of William Carey’s God.” And therein lies the true se cret to the power of Calvanism—it is God-centered, rather than man-cen tered. TRY A HERALD CLASSIFIED AD tl - - ' What Car Belongs Here ? " n Not manv people would hesitate in naming the car they feel belongs in that inviting driveway. It’s the entrance to a fine American home, with a tradition of gracious living behind its handsome pillars—and the car which so obviously, belongs, before it is a Cadillac. But here is a fact whjfh it is important to remem ber—a Cadillac likewise belongs in the driveways of millions of other American homes which are far more modest than the beautiful structure shown in the illus tration above. For it is practical , as well as thrilling, to own a Cadillac. Listen, if you doubt it, to these amazing and sig nificant facts: —there are twenty-two models of other makes of American motor cars which actually cost more than the lowest-priced £adiilac!. 1 i.- —a Cadillac will actually run farther on a gallon CHAS.

Overman, Where sufficient squares were avail able, a count was made. Undusted fields averaged 94 per cent of the squares punctured. Dusted fields av ' eraged 22 per cent of the squares punctured. Red Spider infestation was found in every field examined and in some fields was beginning to do some damage. 801 l worm injury was found in most fields, the highest count run ning about 6 per cent. Growers are being advised to make two applications, 5 to 7 days apart, with 5 per cent DDT. The sulphur is to control the red spider and the DDT to control the boll wbrrn.
