C, R. 2. From a Nash County Cousin. Loral Editor: Much haa been aaid about tne Bible lately, ao I will take for my subject, the Bible. A few weeka ago Air. rred a.eagana hsd soniet.iiug to aay about tne Bible being, taugnt iu public achoola. I don't mean to criticize Mr. Leagans, for thia ia a free country and he baa a right to his opinion, but I do differ with bira on. the subject. We need tiie L'ible in our hotuea. ..We need it taught in Sunday-School.' We hear it preached in the church and aometimea on ihe atreet, and, I can ee no reason -why it ahouldn't be taught in the public arhools. All denominations have a right to teach and preach, the Bible if . they wiah to. The Bible atoea not-contradict geography, although it seems to me that geography root radicle the Bible in aome respects. God made the world and the fullness thereof and he knowa the shape and movement of tbe world. ' The Bible waa written by inspired men of God. It is a true book from lid to lid. I believe it should be taught more in the public, achoola than it haa been. I have read it through two or three timea and I have never seen an imanoral or obacene pas sage in it yet. There ia not a passage in the Bible that would senu anyone to the penitentiary, but -oa the ether hand, if those in the penitentiary had read or been taught the Bible when they were young many of them wouldn't be there today. If the girla of our i country were taught the Bible like they ahould be, you would not aee ao many ef them loafing the streets and going to disgrace as you do. h to have some fun.

It is situated on the State Highway from Wiaston-8alem to Elkin. I am sta tioned here in Boonville going to school. I thinr everyone ought to try -to get -an education while , they . are young, and when they get old they will never regret the time they apent in the school room. Anyone's .school days are their happiest days. Tbia is, my first year in high school and I am planning to finish. I have a sister older than myself and a brother younger, here in school. We like, to go to school here because everybody' is so kind to-us. I have four different teachers. I will tell you what their names are: Pro feasor - Pardue, Mr. Burris, Miss Etta Smith and Misa Ruth Fleming. We stu dents have to be in oor room every even ing at 6:45. I am always glad when I ran go home because home is the best place we can go to.' We ahould all be thankful that we have a home to go to. Some time perhaps, with some of us, the charms of home will flee, the flowers will de and weeds .will rrow in their nlaaea. the treea and fences will be removed.) thinga will change considers Dly wnen our dear old fathers and mothers are gone. It will break our hearts to go back to the dear old home that we once loved so well. We never stop to think how proud we are of our home until -we away from t.

God or the devil is our master. Matt. 6:24. Will you kindly anawer the last part of I Cor. 3:1-17. we must preach no other UosDel save that of God. Gal. 1:9. There are over 240 religions in the world to-day but only one true one. the Word of God, and none other wiii stand the test of all ages as it baa. I Pet. 1:23. Fred I've not given vou up ha hopeless yet, for really- 1 think your heart can be changed, for God aaya ao. Kzek. 36:26; II Lor. 5:17. It's murh easier to live always on thia earth and never .die bodily than it. is to die and never live again. ' You' said the ao-called Word of God. Why didn't you aay the Word of God I That'a exactlv what it ia. Xow, my friend, aomeone ia responsible for your aina and you are doing a great wrong in writing aa you do, aa you may cause aome poor aoul to make their eter nal home in the awful flames of hell. To- uay is 'a time when people need to 'live real close to God. "Fred -you wrote me once that we would not live hereafter but would be eatan by millions of worms. Our bodies -may. but bow about tha aonl? It must live forever and can't be destroy ed. For when God ' ereated man he breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and ha became a living aoul. To prove to you some things that are really ao: Does not the Bible say the rainbow is a token that there shall never be an other flood! So we all ran see the ram bow and knew that's true. . In tbe be ginning Ood created-the Heavens and the fcarth. We can aee the earth and the heavens. Gen. .1:1. verses 3 and 4 tell ua of day and night which we know we have, v erse 5. We call darkness night and light day, lust as the Bible says God did God divided the waters -under the firma ment. We know that is true. And God said: Let tbe waters under the Heaven be gathered unto one place, and let the dry land appear: -and it was so. God called dry land 'Earth and watera Seas, iust as we do. and Ood aaid: Let the tarth brine forth graaa and herb, yielding seed, and fruit tree yielding fruit.

Some say only the igno rant believe the Bible. Well, then, I hope I'll get more ignorant every day. I hone none of you will follow aome blind guide.
