Of course it is bad that a wife be left alone to care as best she can for a house full of little children who have no sayso in their being here— no choice in the matter of what fam ily they shall be born into—and most certainly no part in the making or selling of whiskey. Not only here is this sad fact over-prominent, but in other sections as well. Witness the Taylorsville bank robber-killing for which four have paid with their lives: “All of them leave families. Bas tom Green has five children, Lester one, a little girl born the day he was sentenced to die, and Black, three, two little girls and a boy, the latter having been born while he was in jail awaiting trial.” STONES ON SATURDAY If every unkind act, cruel, slander ous remark, or mist reatment of one s felloiwman were made into little stones or dinky cinders and one had to have them in one’s shoes for Sat urday penance, and each lie was a tack, there would be some almighty hobbling when Saturday came around. It might be a corrective ef fect until ccntinued penance distri buted callous qualities to both “soul and sole.” So much for stones on Sat urday! It’s a shams that young men in Brevard, and especially those under seWteen and eighteen, are made to walk so far for their bootleg whis key. F ur of these youngsters stated last week that on one occasion they had to walk out Maple street way to get a pint, and another time they were forced to walk down the Green ville road past the city limits to get a drink. Federal agents in Cleveland found out that school children were being sold dope, and they immediately made a raid and captured the ped dlers. Wish someone would tell these same federal officers that Brevard high school pupils are being sold whiskey. •*U. S. Agents Tighten Up Liquor Control," says headline in daily newspaper. Come right in gentlemen, we have lots of tightening up in Transylvania county, and then have plenty of liquor left. We’re plumb sorry for some of tho e down-state would-be authorities on “lingo” of the “mountaineers of W stern North Carolina. Seems they are having trouble deciding whether or not “There’s ba’r in them mountains” or “Thar’s bar..’’ Well, who down the way is qualified to answer? We nominate the same low-lander guy who is authority on “Wall wait chere cntell we’uns cnhhy this caow to wataw an’ wee’ll all jine up to finish that ar’ cotton patch.” If there is any one thing that gets this paper’s nanny goat it is some two finger hunt-and-peck type writer operator who takes a peek into the mountains and then goes off in some sort of a trance and “writes a piece” about the unlettered moun taineers of W. N. C. "who ain’t had nary a bit o’ school larnin.” We might mention the fact that Transyl vania county, in one. of the most mountainous sections of Western North Carolina, was the FIRST county in the state to adopt a connty wido nine months school term, and that Brevard Institute (now Brevard Junior College) was !an accredited high school when majority of down the country folk still thought a four months school term was a waste of too much time. Fact is, we could go on mentioning a lot of things, but why take away the reason for a lot of people’s bliss. It’s easy to ■ understand why a youngster enjoys shooting fire crackers, but old folks just can’t en joy having them p-i-yowl righi underfoot Even, if the town does not put u] the colored lights this year ,a littb additional cleaning up of the uptown area by business men, attractive windows and less litter on the side walks by the public in general will help to make the old home town brighter. Two'great teams have represented Brevard during the football season, with Coach Tilson at the high school taking » mixed-up group of material, placing the best he had at the most logical position, and making them good in their places. Six wins, one tie, two losses is reckoned among sport circles aa good, and Tilson should be commended for his wotrk. Of no less import has been the work of Ralph James at Brevard College taking a bunch of mostly raw re cruits and making of them a team that tied for the conference cham pionship. Fiv<( wdns, two-ties and two losses is good for long-establish ed colleges. We’re proud of Brevard s representatives on the gridiron. A WORTHWHILE SUGGESTION (Waynesville Mountaineer) Down in Raleigh the other day it was found that 99 out of 444 voters in a certain precinct were either dea nv moved awav. Because of the tact revealed in the investigation it was j decided to have a new registration soon. , . Wonder if it had ever occurred to the people of the state that by pub lishing a list of qualified voters sev eral weeks before the election would tend to eliminate such conditions as were found in Ral©ifi?n. oaklandIews I 1 Mrs. E.

IMPROVED ”U"I,J UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY | chool Lesson (By m;v p. B fitiswatmh, P Li., Member of Faculty, Moody Bible hint note of Chicago.) ft Wentern Newananer Union, | Lesson for December 16 THE CHRISTIAN AND THE LORD’S SUPPER LESSON TEXT—l Corinthians 11: j 13-34. I GOLDEN TEXT—For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this oup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. —I Corinthians 11:26. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Supper Jesus Oave His Friends, JUNIOR TOPIC—How the Lord's Supper Began. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- | 1C—Why Observe the Lord’s Supper? t YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC— peallslng Christ's Presence In the ! Supper. By the Lord's Supper here Is meant , the bread and the wine used as em blems of the broken body and shed blood of the Lord Jesns Christ. Some Christians think of the Lord's Supper as a meal of fellowship eaten before the Institution of the bread and the cup. To them It means the agape or love-feast which was practiced In the enrly church. Such would prefer to call this the Communion Instead of the Lord's Supper. With this understand ing, we can enter Into the real under- j standing and blessing of the ordinance, i I. The Initltutlon of (v. 23). 1. The time. It wns on the night of the betrayal of the Lord Jesus, after the betrayer had been announced. 2. Circuinstnnces of (Matt 20:20). It wns in connection with the eating of the Passover. At the command of , Jesus the disciples made ready the ! I'nssover, and while they were eating Jesus took brend, blessed It, and gave It to them. 3. The elements used. Brend— doubtless common bread of the Pass over feast. The Cup—the fruit of the vine. II. The Significance of (vv. 24-20 Cf. Mntt. 20:20-28). Jesus took nntura) and literal ele ments and made them to be symbols of his own body and blood. 1. It Is a memorial of the Lord (I.k. 22:10). When Jesus Christ left the world, he left the brend and the cup for the disciples, by which to remember i him. 2. To show the Lord’s sncrlflclnl death (v 20). lie did not die as a hero, or as an example of unselfish de votion, but as a substitutionary ran- 1 son, on the cross Ira made satisfaction for our sins. 3. it is a guaranty that our sins are forgiven (Horn. 4:25). “It wns the sig net of the Son of Cod nttnchert to re- ’ demption." 4. ll symbolizes the believer’s recep tion of Christ (1 Cor. 10:10). He there by participates ,n the body and blood . of Christ, becoming a member of bis ' body. 5. it has a forward look to a com pleted redemption (v. 20). When faith In Christ Is exercised, redemption be gins, and its completion will take p.nce j at the coining of Christ (I Thess. 4:1(5, 17). The bread and the cup coimPtute j the keepsake of the Lord until he re- i turns. III. Qualifications for Participation in the Lord’s Supper (vv. 27-20). 1. o proper apprehension or Us meaning (v. 27). Eating and drinking ' unworthily primarily refers not to the demerit of Hie communicant, hut to Ins failure to grasp the meaning and im- ; portance of the ordinance. Only re- i generated persons can discern the, Lord’s body. Faith In the integrity of! Christ’s person and work is essential, j Anyone who does not believe In the j absolute deity of Christ and his vicnrl- ] oils atonement Is an unworthy comma- j nlcnnt. 2. Church membership (1 Cor. 11:18- ) 22). The Lord's body Is the church, j which Is composed of regenerated men | and women united to Jesns Christ as head, and to .each other as members, of that body, by the Holy Spirit. 3. An orderly walk. Conduct which j disqualifies for participation In the j Lord’s supper: a. Immorality (l Cor. 5:1-13). It is! most perilous for one who Is guilty of! Immorality to approach the Lord’s ta- J hie (v. 80). Sickness and death are | often visited upon such. b. Heresy (Titus 3:10; 1 John 4:2,, 3). This means that one who bolds false doctrine Is disqualified for par- ; tlcipntlon In the communion. c. A Schismatic (Horn. 16:17). The j one who stirs up party strife, who; causes divisions In the church, should ! be excluded from the Lord’s table. | IV. Penalty for Failure to Discern | the Lord's Body (vv. 30-34). Approaching the Lord's table un 1 worthily Issues In the visitation of sick j ness and death upon the individual. Title seems to be plainly the meaning j of "weak and sickly among you, and j many sleep." This explains the Illness J of many Christians. The way to es- \ cape the judgment Is to Judge our- j selves. ' Patience Patience meuns "tc stay under the Durden.” It Is a call to be loyal to the difficult task even when thore are open doors of escape. It means that the whole man should stay In the bard place—heart, head and body. They Are the Winner* All those who wear the white robe of spiritual purity are those who have overcome in the struggle with oil that ts base and foul in the experience oi mankind. - I J GLANCING I BACK AT i; BREVARD Taken from the flies of The \ | j > Sylvan Valley News, beginning ->| ’ 1895, through the courtesy of ; [ t Mrs. W.
