of Roxboro and see the doors of the
church, may hear the church bells
ring and may enter and hear the
words of the Lord. But, Mr. Brooks
continues, that is not enough. We
must have a response if we are to
enter the Kingdom of the Lords.
I This thought was plainly understood
Iby the agricultural minded people
in Palestine by the farmers sowing
i seed in the soil. Mr. Brooks pointed
cut that the soil must not only*b"
receptive to seed sown but must also
be responsive. Tt must grow and pro
duce fruit and food for God’s chil
drens to survive as we are depend

Four Soil Types Explained By
Minister ir, Saving Souls
cl I The FERTILE SOIL with well
prepared seed bed wits the first type
: explained. Sc d sown on such soil i-s
highly I'ccrji.ivo and will germinate
landwill ; i„w well and everything
being responsive n good yield will be
i harvested,.
>2> Tl HARD SOIL, which Mr.
! Bj-poks gave as an example, a path
| till.ill :. j a field that so many of us
i in life use as a short cut. This area
jis ha jrd blit may be. plowed with
j cti 1 f cully and it will lie receptive to
I see .1 sown. The seed will come up
: bi jt. the response .will not. be so good,
j Compared to life and the words of
.The Lord it may he interpreted to
i< ir-r to the .person with a "closed
rniiid."
j <3i The THORNY SOIL is a third j
type that may be fertile, but has;
j scattered throughout its body thorn!
! seed. These seed will bo in eompeti
| tion in crowding out. the desirable;
fruits and food that Hie sower would
like t/> harvest. In life,evils may be
. embedded in the mind that tend to
I prevent the response of the words of !
i Hu- Lord.
L . i-li The ROCKY SOIL is the typ
I'tliat has only an inch or two of top
j soil and there is the close tinderly- j
' ing rock. Such soils as pointed out
by the preacher are receptive to the i
I sowing di the seed. The seed will J
; come up but the heat from the close,
I underlying rock will cause the plant;
to wither and die.
: All of the above. types.of soil were j

i only must there be a receptance.' but !
■.there is a. necessity for a response, j
it one i- to enter the Kingdom of J
the Lord's..
Fifth Soil Type Suggested By Con
servationist iii Saving Our Soils
Everything that has been said by. j
■our Rev. Brooks is all well and good; j
{But as a Soil Conservationist I am;
suggesting that a fifth spil type be j
added to advance this thought one |
I step, further, For the like of a better j
name, this fifth soil type could bcl
Yank Troops
Stage Rodeo
Tokyo. American occupation
troops observed Armistice day by
staging a rodeo at the Meiji ball
grounds.
A Fifth air force aerial circus was
throw in—just as a reminder of the
last war.
An estimated 70,000 occupation
troops, overflowed the stadium to
watch probably the first rodeo ever
staged' in Japan.
Japanese remained in their homes.
Their newspaper carried stories tell
ing them transportation would be
tied up most of the day in order to
carry thousands of United States
| soldiers to the rodeo.
I
I The Japanese attempted no ob-!
I ser,vance of Armistice day, although,
I it relates to world war I when they
i were on the winning side.
called the EROSIVE SOIL TYPE.
It could be either of the foui
types mentioned above or any com
bination of the four. All of the soil
types in Person County are more or
less of the EROSIVE TYPE. That
is. thei are subject to erosion or soil
washing, depending upon the envir
onmental conditions and misuse.
We may have EROSION of the
SOUL as well as EROSION of th
- Due to environmental condi
tions and evils; in life, we may see 1
one that has lost his friends, his
pride and self respect. All this is
bad but the person that lias lost :
confidence in his own self is in a
sad situation for it will be mighty
hard to get any response to the ,
Lord's words,.
Compared to the erosion of the
soils in Roxboro and Person County
it would not be so bad. if from ero
sion we only lost the plant food ele
ments such as nitrogen, phosphorus
and potash. We could build back this
fertility bv adding commercial fer
tilizers. barnyard manure and turn
ing under green manure crops. But
the sad part about soil erosion is
that we not only lose these plant
food elements so necessary for plant
growth, but we lose the soil body
itself which once it has gone down I
tile muddy streams cannot be re- :
placed.
In this article it has not been my
desire to step over in the field of our
religious- workers, for their work,
boiled down to a point, is Clearing
Up Sinful Living and Saving Souls.
Whereas mv work is Saving Soils
and Clearing Up the Muddy Streams.
In some, rural sections the Methodis;
Church is on record where these
agricultural minded worshipers say
that if an eleventh Commandment
was to bp added it should be. “THY
SHALT SAVE THY SOIL FROM
WASHING,"
