RELIGION —AND-*— LIFE BT RAT BOWMAN &OMBQBOeO&BeQSO^^ WITNESSING FOR CHRIST Before Jesus left the earth His part ing words to the disciples were: “Ye shall be witnesses unto me.” Witnessing for Christ is unbelievably simple. Literally millions of conse crated Christians have performed yeo man service In this arena prior to the twentieth century. Followers of Jesus are still being true to the trust He left them, but Christianity as a whole is passing up more opportunities than it is accepting. During my early boyhood a minister in the Wesleyan Methodist Connection stayed in our home. Every morning be fore breakfast he took his Bible and re paired to a selected spot for study, medi tation and prayer. He probably was not conscious of witnessing in any unusual way. But a youngster who watched him with wistful eyes was learning to sit at the feet of Jesus. The very simplicity of being a witness handicaps the friends of Christ. They are constantly on the lookout for a chance to do big things for their chosen Leader, not realizing that a good wit You can replace a hat... but your car must last! .

C. library include the following, as announced by Miss Annie Jean Gash, librarian: Big: | Family, Partridge: Bird of the Wilder ness, Sheean; My Friend Flecka, O’Hara: No One Will Know, Delafleld; Noons: Sisters. Hahn; Tory Oath, Prid gen; Waters of the Wilderness, Seifert; Strictly Personal, Maugham. ness performs "little unremembered deeds of kindness and of love." A few well-chosen words, a look, a handclasp, a prayer may be all that is needed or expected. But we hesitate on the threshold of opportunity and the moment passes without a decision. Bungling of opportunities results in failure. And yet even failures are used of God to accomplish His purpose. Helen and Alice were schoolmates. Helen was a Christian. Though she had never spoken to Alice about Christ, she decided to do so after she saw Alice drifting into "fast” company. Helen overtook Alice on the way to school and walked beside her, trying to speak, but she could only stammer and choke up. Again and again she tried to speak, but her lips seemed glued to gether. Finally she rushed away, sob bing heart-brokenly, “Oh, I have made such a failure!” Alice followed her and reassured her. “No, you have not made a failure. I know what you meant to say. I hoped you would say it. But you have tried so bravely that you have impressed me more than any fine words you could have spoken. To think that you cared so much for me as to try when it was so hard!” My father is a barber. He once told me that the first time he was asked to shave a dead man. it seemed that under no circumstance could he bring himself even to touch the face. After a time he placed his hand gingerly on the cold, white forehead. When he did, every vestige of dread and fear was swept away and he was never panicked again. Since that time he has shaved dozens of faces whose owners have entered on the last long sleep. Once you have made an effort to wit ness for Jesus you will fin 1 ihe next efforts a little bit easier. “Action is the word of charm in every language.” Fruit Juice Laxative !

We have a grand new store in Brevard that is catering to just us ladles. I know no one missed having their name in the pot for a chance at that lovely Hudson seal fur coat that they gave away last Friday. Congratu lations, Mrs. Miller! We all envy you and your good luck. Here’s to Mrs. Plummer for her very good taste in her selection of fall mer chandise. She has some of the most stylish frocks! She has our interests at heart to the extent that she makes the tiring trip to New York herself to choose to please us. I have a vague idea of what hard work it is to shop in a city. Iv isn’t child’s play and we thank her for her efforts to satisfy her customers.—Us. Our hats are off to Mr. Patterson for his line of men’s clothing. His men's Griffon suits look as much like Harris Tweeds as Harris Tweeds look like Harris Tweeds and at a much lower price. Incidentally, he has some good looking Harris Tweeds in suits and top coats that look well for all-round wear ing. We are regretful to say that Mrs. Stiles is working elsewhere hut happy to say that we still have Hallie’s Shop. And I hope it is here to stay. Hallie’s may not carry an extensive line, but she has an exclusive line. There, you are able to find just THE THING that you have been looking for over town. Maybe the hat for that new dress—who knows? Now, Belk's is the store that has a variety of merchandise. You can And just about anything you want at Belk’s. And for those ladies that are going in for black this season don’t miss seeing their line of lovely dresses and coats. I am so glad that Brevard is big enough and busy enough to support a store like Belk’s. Now for gifts and jewelry we have Parson’s, Carlton’s and Anna's. My, how this little town has progressed*! I can remember back when—, well, never mind, but it’s a great little town, and it's our town, and it's up-to-date in styles!
