THE TORCH (
A department conducted for ;
. The Warren County 5
Memorial Library
By MABEL DAVIS {
The Librarian
We Are Grateful
We have delayed our report for
the annual campaign for funds
for the library this fall because
we are constantly adding to
the fund. The amount received up
to this time is $417.34. The campaign
may be regarded as the most
successful since the depression, 1
think.
We acknowledge with thanks the
following contributions received this
week: Dividend check (Bank of
Warren) from the Kiwanis Club
through H- R. Skillman, treasurer,
47c; $1.00 from Mrs. W. W. StSing,
Wise; $500 from Miss Tempe
Dameron, Centerville, Md.
The trustees, and all others interested
in.the success of the library,
appreciate the cooperation of
the men and women who took part
in the campaign?all who contributed
in any way. The number of
contributors exceeds that of any
previous campaign, which means, 1
think, that more and more people
are coming to realize the. place of a
public library, in the cultural and
recreational life of the people.
Our book shows the following result
of the canvass in the schools
and rural communities:
Macon $15-70
Norlina school 7.80
Wise 9-75
Ridgeway 5.00
Afton 1100
Five Forks 8.60
Klberon 250
Warren Plains 5.00
Littleton 1.00
Churchill 2.25
Areola 115
Inez 2.00
Axtel 750
John Graham School 11.75
Total $9100

Paul's Parting Counsels.
Lesson for December 6th. 1 Timhy
6:6-16.?
Golden Text: 2 Timothy 4:7.
Timothy was asociated with Paul
r a longer period than any of the
jostle's other companions. That
; was held in the highest regard
r his older colleague is evidenced
r the opening greeting in Paul's
rst letter to Timothy where the
reat-hearted missionary calls his
>unger ally "my own son in the
.ith." i
The son of a mixed marriage,
ifw a .Tewish mother named Eu
ce, and a Greek father, Timothy
jpears in the Bible gallery as a
lild of rival cultures. In Acts 16
e learn not only about Timothy's
irents, but also of the esteem in
hich he was held by his brethren,
Paul's desire to have him as a
aveling companion, and of the rite
' circumcision performed by the
)ostle upon Timothy in deference
Jewish feeling. The young man
as ordained, and accompanied,

day and arrived bright and early
the following Saturday morning.
The cake was pronounced fresh
and ready to eat on its arrival by
the thousands of bakers and members
of allied industries attending
the convention. Its freshness was
due, a spokesman said, to modern
bakery methods and the Procter &
Gamble shortening used.
"The arrival of this cake from
Honolulu is symbolic of the progress
of the modern baker," one of
the executives present at the convention
declared. "Just as the bakers
availed themselves of the fastest
and most modernOmeans of
transportation to bring this cake to
Atlantic City, so the industry is
constantly applying the latest scientific
developments to improve its
product and service. Through constant
research, bakers are now able
to offer the public products that are
on a par with the best "homemade
products and that have even better
.keening ?aualiiu>? " .
There are many references to
Timothy both in the Acts and
Paul's letters. He was with Paul in
Rome during the apostle's imprisonment
there, indeed three of
Paul's letters, written from his
bondage, Philippians, Colossions,
and Philemon, were issued in their
joint names. Paul's dependence
upon his youthful disciple is illustrated
in the touching chapter of
our Golden Text where the aged,
broken apostle appeals to Timothy
to "come shortly" unto him.
Note Timothy's splendid inheritance.
He sprang from good stock,
j Such gold as we find in him is not
made of dirt. Consider also his fortunate
nurture. "From a child,"
writes Paul, "thou has known the
Holy Scriptures.'' (2 Tim. 3:15).
And recollect, to Timothy's great
credit, that he obeyed Paul's invitation
to be his fellow-traveler. He
went forth from his home, becoming
as a son to his elder friend.
Finally, it is pleasant to recognize
' the noble bearing of Paul in nis
I ot.t.itnrfp toward Timnthv.
