Lensy Sanders of Lake Toxaway and Leroy McCall of Camp Edisto were calling on friends here Sunday j afternoon. , Rev. Clyde McCali filled his regulnr | appointment Sunday Imorning at j Luke Toxaway Baptist church and j preached an excellent sermon from the text “Where art Thou.” found in , Genesis, third chapter and latter part ] of the ninth verse. He surely did give us food for serious thought. We arc glad to report that the Sunday school is well attended, yet there are num bers of intelligent young folks and bright children in the community who should be in Sunday school who do not attend at ali. We fear some pat ents will live to regret their careless ness. We remarked to one parent Sunday afternoon that he missed a real treat by not going to church Sun day morning, and his reply was that he'had not been to church in so long that he guessed if he went now he would knock on the door. That man has three bright children, two of them old enough to understand a real gos pel sermon, and the other one old enough to join the card class lit Sun day school. What can one expect of children raised by parents who are that unconcerned about their soul s salvation? We hope the 'folks of our community will apply the text of our pastor’s sermon to themselves and ask in connection with their own soul, “Where art thou?” Suspend S. C. Drivers’ Licenses Columbia, S.
