The Everyday Counselor Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. Are you a procrastinator? Do you put off until tomorrow what you should do today? Is the Mex ican word “manana,” meaning “tomorrow,’ a prominent word in your vocabulary? If so, then read this definition of ‘'manana” by an unknown author which was sent to me by a correspondent who is a well-known news com mentator: “The watchword of Uhe weary, the slogan of the slum bering, the password of the pepless.’' That definition is too good to keep. We Americans need to read that, as we were certainly “slum bering’’ when World War I. and again when World War II. came COLDS LIQUID MEDICINE IS BETTEF -Get split second relic* ol Cold Miseries t The largest selling Ligmd C ' ) Preparation rn the l1 666 LIQUID COLD ;■' ?.

Scott famous aviator of the Army Aii Forces and author of the book : "God is My Co-Pilot," from which a motion picture of the same name was taken, delivered a note worthy address in Charlotte, N C., recently. In it he sounded a i solemn warning that if we are to avert World War III and not be destroyed by it, we dare not slip back into the slumbering at titude which we had when World War I and again when World War II came upon us He said that Almighty God had already given us two chance's, and he didn't think that we would get a third. He sounded a stir ring note of spiritual and military preparation. He reminded us that we are living in a world where a great totalitarian and godless power face’s us I have often quoted Saint Paul's motto for dealing with evil.

After a wedding trip to the mountains of North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia, the cou I pie will make their home in Charlotte. For traveling the bride wore a brown gabardine suit I Twice as a nation we accepted the first part of this motto, but failed to put the second part into practice. We fought two wars to | keep from being overcome with [ evil. Now we must overcome this evil, which is again rearing its head, with good. We must make a practical demonstration of the Christian Gospel in the place of world leadership which we occupy today. National habits are formed 1 from personal habits. Many of us have a habit of putting oil until tomorrow what we should do to day. Life is made up of little things. So when we put off the little things, it follows that we put off thi lag thing.-. W should live each day as if it were our I last on earth: doing those things I which call for our attention, and if possible doing them now One | t Hith s famous critii nit :I the allies in the last war wash "Too little and too late."
