ABSENTEE BRIDE-ELECT
HONORED AT SHOWER
Friends of Miss Betty Sloan,
(laughter of Mrs. W. W. Sloan,
were invited to a recipe shower at
her home, Sunnyside Farm." Fri
clay, April 22. Guests were asked
to bring their favorite recipes to
aid the bride-elect, Miss Sloan, in
the culinary arts. These, from the
or more guests, completely filled
an attractive little hand-painted rec
ipe file. Due to the absence of the
honored bride-to-be and her fiancee,
Mr. James McAllister, both being
in New York, this couple was rep
resented in proxy by Miss Amanda
Slagle as Miss Sloan and Miss
Kosalee Morrow as Mr. McAllister.
The impersonators, in evening dress
and tuxedo, completely surprised
the mother of the bride when they
entered with their arms full of
packages. These, in great glee and
excitement, they opened, disclosing
to the interested group of friends,
gifts to delight any bride.
Then followed a poem, "A Moth
er's Wish," charmingly read by
Mrs. R. S. Jones, after which there
mas a hontest, "The Recipe for
Happiness" in which all the guests
participated. Ihe first letter of
each line began with one letter of
the bride-elect's name. Much mer
riment followed when the various
advices were read aloud. Mrs. Rob
ert Ration's, as prize winner, was
as follows:
"Heat eggs vigorously, husbands
gently but often.
Endure his ashes all over the floor,
I ell him he is handsome,
Tell him he is smart.
You may Rnaw better, but he will
not."
At the- conclusion of the after
noon's fun, dainty refreshments
were served by Misses Amanda

thanks to God for protection and

Franklin, N. C.
one did not much expect it of them.
Such an act does not fit in with
the prevailing philosophy of a large
number of Americans, especially in
scientific and intellectual circles. It
seems to be significant of the re
ligious trend in America, or per
haps we should say a lack of re
ligion. There are many people who have
some vague idea that there may be
.a God, but they cannot locate Him
in their thinking, nor in the affairs
of life. A large number have no
more creed than a sort of scientif
ic or intellectual agnosticism. They
cannot see God in any intimate re
lationship with any of His crea
tures, and therefore they have dis
carded prayer as a superstition un
worthy of an intelligent person.
With this has come the practical
doctrine of human independence and
self-sufficiency. Man can make an
airplane, and man can take care of
himself in it ; what is the use of
asking God to help? We have sub
stituted for "I believe in God the
l ather Almighty," the creed, "I be
lieve in man, sufficient to his own
needs." Many no longer pray, be
cause they feel that there is no
need to pray, Having reached the
stage where we think we can make
all the things that we want, vve
are amply able to take care of our
selves. We have many of the out
ward forms of religion, but it does
not vitally effeit the affairs of life.
European nations have preserved
many ot the customs which as
sociate God-with the everyday af
fairs of human beings, and they do
well to do so.
The scientific spirit which ruled
ut the supernatural removed God
from His world- in any sort of
intimate relationship with it. To
many there may be a God beyond
the universe but they cannot see
Him in it.
The other day the recently en
throned Emperor of Manchukuo, a
young man of 28 years of age, pre
pare! for the ceremonies and the
responsibilities of his office by fast
ing and praying. We may look up
on his religion as inferior to ours,
and many will regard his acts as
superstition, but his religion means
something to mm. The Western
world has been afflicted with a
superiority romplex berause of its
scientific and mechanical progress;
viewing the mysticism of the East
as childish and superstitiious. But
with the collapse of our social
structure we might well begin to
ponder the spiritual values of the
East.
The one hopeful incident in our
national experience was the fact
that President Roosevelt went to
church on the morning of his in
auguration for a service of conse
cration, and asked Divine guidance
in his undertakings. That is a
bright spot in our history and an
example worthy of wide emulation.
