OPEN FORUM WAKE I P AMERICA! It seems to be the general opin ion that we are facing the great est battle that has ever been fought since the fall of Man. and am I right when I ask what is the church people doing about it? * A sinner can't do anything but curse ) You remember War No. 1 rased for about 4 years before the street cars stopped at high noon and all busines .stopped for five minutes in solemn meditation and prayer. About that time Old Kiaser B .1 said he didn't under stand this praying business and took weak knees and into Holland he went. This war is too big for man to settle bv himself. No one outside the Tryune God can settle and settle it right' I notic e in : Knoxvi'.le Jour nal they are ailing for all day prayer, yes I add ''.v nigh: to it also, fir ur imvs fig'.-t day and night. And when I speak of pray er I don't mean quoting words What kind of a battle would it I ti if our boys fought that way? 1 They go in to conquer or die and never retreat. WAKE UP A M ERICA! There has got to be something more than man power Our boys are putting everything tV:ey have into it. sweat, toil, blood, and even life itself, and many of them can't get a letter from home. I heard one of the best Law yers in Knoxville say last week. ? When this awful invasion starts. T will lock my office door and ko home and get down on my knees by my radio and pray day and nigttt until ( It >ver." why not start now? Why wait?

Humble Themselves T think one of the most be-set ving sins we have in America i3 the sin of pride We need to humble ourselves before God. Who ever heard of a man putting his wagon in fron* of the horse? We must humble ourselves first before we can do anything worth while. We need *o get down in the dust of humility now this very moment and pray first for our selves and then pray for our men and boys who are in this terrible invasion. While they are mak ing the invasion against the en emies of our country Let us a Christian people invade th< ranks of sin and the devil 'hat has such strong hold upon the oeop. of the world. Ill?

Turn From Their Wieked N'avs. Some say drinking and gambl ing swearing, steal inc. murder in- are onlv wicked ways but I declare unto you my friends that any thing that isn't right, becomes a wicked way before Him Some stay from church for II 1 months until revival begins and then go for the duration of the meeting.

Brother if our land doesn't need healing today, my friend what are you doing about thi> great problem Here in II Chronicles 7 14 we have t lie conditions for a world wide peace and the promises attached but remember we have no right to call upon Him to do these things for us until we have met the condition.- Will you humble yourself now and lets ray for our land to be healed, r : bless you Mot la Fa' ers. ?a ves. children, and relatives and nds Pray for your loved ones.

Now more than ever war needs the wires to help speed men and vital war supplies to the far-flung war fronts. Your help is needed to keep lines clear of all unnecessary Long Distance calls. SouTHEnn Sell Telephore flno Telecrhph ComPRns INCORPORATED the islands of the sea arc a very little thing to him and we are sure out among the islands now. and on the high seas, and God only knows how far above the clouds. Why wait longer to start the prayer meetings? It should have started before the war start ed and kept down this awful flood of strong drink that has wreck ed and killed millions on the home front, and now our boys and girls, men and women are dying on ac count of it.

Hang clothes far enough apart to elimi nate crowding. * When stains appear, send tile garment to Imperial immediately, before the stain has had a chance to "set". * Have clothes cleaned frequently to elimi nate the cutting action of gritty dirt. CALL Us Today, won't you? IMPERIAL CLEANERS Phone 13 Murphy, N. C. "My boy is home again!" THERE'LL, be no empty place at the table tonight ... no extra slices on the plate when Mom gets through serving the apple pie. Bill's home again! Home ... to tease the daylights out of Sis to sit on the porch and talk with Dad . . . to dream great dreams on a hill-top poking up to the stars . . . Bringing thousands of "Bills" back home for a few precious days of furlough is one of the Southern's most gratifying wartime jobs. For its reward is the eager grin of a serviceman . . . the tears of happiness that brighten a mother's eye. But it's a difficult job . . . because it comes at a time when every piece of available equipment has been en listed in the fight for Victory. This summer, especially, will be a critical time for pas senger travel on the Southern. Our services and facil ities will be strained to the limit. Our regular trains and our stations are bound to be crowded as never before. That's why we ad;: 'Please don't ride on a Southern Railway train this summer unless your trip is absolutely essenj tial" By patriotically foregoing an unnecessary trip, you can help some grateful mother . . . perhaps the mother of your boy ... to whisper, "My boy is home again."
