MEDITATION "Some time, when all life's lessons have been learned. And sun *nd stars for evermore have set. The things which our weak judgments here have spurned. The things o'er which we grieved with lashes wet. Will flash before us, out of life's dark night, As stars shine most in deeper tints of blue: And we shall see how all Cod's plans were right. And how what seemed reproof was love most true." Wilson Named Local Inspector Vance Wilson has been appoint ed a deputy inspector for the Na tional Hardwood Lumber associa tion in this area.

HEMBREE, Chairman Cherokee County Board, of Elections 1 Care Of Shoes Is Important By RITH CURRENT State Home Demonstration Agent How well summer shoes wear depends on how they are cleaned, clothing specialists say. The right cleaning not only keeps them looking new but also makes them last longer. White shoes should be cleaned off the foot and not worn until they are thoroughly dry. If worn damp, the leather or fabric may stretch out of shape. Put in shoe trees or stuff with tissue paper before cleaning. There is no one cleaner that is equally good for all white shoes. The specialists advise reading the label on the cleaner to be sure it is recommended for the type of leather or fabric in the shoes. In general, white shoe soap is best for white smooth leather because it cleans without drying and hardening t h e leather. Dressing that contains whitening material like chalk is suited to cloth shoe#. Old dressing should always be brushed out before applying more. Shoes of white suede or other napped leather may be "Powder cleaned" rather than liquid-clean ed. Use one of the buffer bags of chalk-like material sold for the purpose. If white shoes are grass-stained, first brush or s ponce off the old polish, then brush with a solution of sodium perborate 'sold at drug stores for cleaning teeth) or perox ide. Then rinse and polish, working rapidly in order not to wet the ?hoes an\ more than necessary. A wooden match dipped in ink an excellent substitute for a pen tor addressing parcels: it saves the pen and makes the writing bolder and clearer For a delicate onjon flavor in sandwiches, slip the knife with which you are slicing tomatoes for sandwiches into an onion sever al times while slicing each tomato This will contribute a flavor to the sandwiches which will be piquant but not strong enough to be unpleasant Dehorning cattle is a good prac tice because this will prevent them from injuring one another DICKEY MURPHY.

SCRIPTURE: Ruth DEVOTIONAL KtADINQ : Pialnu Ji 6 9. Naomi, Woman Of Faith Lesson (or July 18, 1948 IF we are to understand Ruth, cherished heroine of the book bearing her name, we must know Dr. Newton Naomi, ner mower in-law ? woman ol faith in God and sur passing patience and sacrifice in 'service to her day and gen eration. It is the Book ol Ruth which we have for Sunday's lessons, with Psalms 28:6-9 as the devotional reading. The golden text, "Thy people shall be my people, rnd thy God my God,'' nuui 1:10. ? ? * IN SEARCH OF BREAD FAMINE in Judah, where Elime lech and his wife, Naomi, and their sons, Mahlon and Chilion, dwelt, drove them to Moab, in search of bread. Elimelech died, and the sons married young women of Moab, Ruth and Orpah. And then the sons died. Naomi, feeling that she must not longer remain in Moab, announced her intention to return to her native land, and bade Ruth and Orpah farewell. In one brief decade Naomi had lost hus band and sons, and now she longed for home. * * * ?INTREAT ME NOT TO LEAVE THEE" ORPAH accepted Naomi's sug gestion, and turned away tc her own people; but not so with Ruth. She loved Naomi. She could not give her up. Naomi had done something for Ruth in those years of sorrow and loss. "Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I wil] lodge. Thy people shall be my peo ple, and thy God my God. Where thou diest, I will die, and there wit I be buried. The Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me." With these sublime words, Ruth lashed herself to Naomi, and to gether they started on the long trek to Bethlehem. WHEN FAITH CONQUERS HERE we witness conquering faith? conquering faith in the aearts of Naomi and Ruth. And they :ome to Bethlehem. It was the har dest season, and Naomi directed Ruth to glean In the field of Boaz, 1 wealthy and generous-hearted :itizen of Bethlehem. Faith in ac tion! And the world loves the story of Ruth becoming the wife of Boaz, and thus the mother of Obed, the grandfather of David the king in the ancestral line of Jesus Christ, the King of kings. And Naomi, through her conquer ng faith, held in her arms the little oaby, Obed, and dreamed of God's unfolding purposes to bless the world. In this unsurpassed romance we witness faith in adversity, faith in association, faith in conduct, faith in claim, faith in confidence, and faith in a glorious climax. WHEN FAITH CONQUERS LIFE is always ennobled when faith conquers. It is easy to imagine how history might have missed this beautiful love story, had not Naomi been a woman of conquering faith. She might have given up and over to her great sorrow, and pined away in grief and defeat. But Naomi followed the gleam. And her trust in God shed its gen tle glow Into the lonely heart of the Moabite widow, Ruth. Ruth clave unto Naomi. She could not do other wise. "Truth Is stranger than fic tion." And all history was enriched. It Is ever so when faith conquers. Thus the poet states the case: "God moves in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform , "He plants bis footsteps on the sea, i And rides upon the storm." ? # ?
