RELIGION AND REVOLUTION
Religion, as history records, is
one of the worm's most revolution
ary forces ; and yet, strange to say,
it is. one nf the world's L;reatesi
barriers to revolution. Hitler is
discovering that in ( lermahy, as
others have discovered it in other
lands; and it still appears that his
effort to bend the churches to his
will and purposes is proving the
mosi difficult undertaking to which
he has yet set his hand.
The Berlin correspondent of the
:ew York Times thinks that the
church situation in drmany is now
approaching a "dramatic climax."
On the one hand there is the bitfer
resistance on the part of many of
the, Protestants aaaiast the Nazi-
fication of" their churches. On the
otfrej- hand there is the growing
resentment on the part of ( terman
Catholic prelates whose recent out
spoken denunciation ot the Nazi
program is described by the cor
respondent of The Times as "amaz
im .." -ASHEV1LLE CITIZEN.

Carelessly discarded matches and
stubs cause many (ires in nit ices,
homfs, factories, along highways
and in the country every year, ac-

Ashe, "our national fire loss would
be smaller by thousands of dollars
every year."
No cigarette or cigar stubs (with
special emphasis on the former,
since they are mure dangerous
should be thrown away without be
ing absolutely cold. If you are out
nf doors, grind the stub carefully
under your foot. Nearly every
home where there are smokers has
its quota of scorched tables and
window sills, carpets and furniture.
Much publicity has been given at

year in this country for tobacco.
If the cost of replacing articles
ruined by the careless use of that
tobacco were figured in, the an

be staggering.

1 mean, why

never been a June bride, and I
don't know of a single thing that

should happen to become a June

Which reminds me that my
brother's wife was a June bride.

very smart. My brother told her
one day that he would like sunn

plied that she would gladly cook
him sonic string beans if he would
only tell her how many strings he
thought it would take.
My brother told me (confidently,
of course) that before he married
her that he could just eat her. He
now says that he wishes to heck
he had.
Oh, well, maybe he will have the

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Several have complained about
the very, nonsensical answers to
their questions. Please, folks, don't
give up hope. My answer box has

plications of Viik's Vaporttb, 1 think

O Why do birds fly South in
the Fall?
A Because it's too far to walk.
VQ. Who made the first rotton
gin ?
A. For gosh sakes! Are they
making- it from rotton now?
Q. Can you suggest anything
better than a cold shower after a
horse-back ride?
A. Sure! An overstuffed chair.
Q. Where is "Nigger" Young's
home ?
A. Anywhere he hangs his hat.
On second thought, though, I don't
believe he has a hat.
Q. rWhat do you think these

A, History.
Q. Do you have a red scarf and

A. That's personal; but as

O Will Jiggs' daughter ever be

IN MEMORY OF MRS. REBEC
CA ANN WEST RAMSEY
Rebecca A. West Ramsey joined!
her home church, the Snow inn
Methodist church, in her youth.
She lived a consecrated Christian
until her death. She was strong
in spirit, she worked for her church
and Sunday school. Her advice was
good in all God's works. She could
see her time was drawing near.
Her hope was great, her work was
done. Oh, how brave, she was
when the end came.
She looked out for her dear chil
dren and loved ones to meet her
beyond. She was of fine moral
character. She looked forward for
advancements. She helped to get
good schools for her children and
neighbor's children. She was an
uplift to her1 community. She was
good to the poor and off-cast.
She was an intelligent woman and
a fine instructor. I learned to love
her when we Were young. 1 went
to school three terms to her. She
taught us about ( md as well as
our studies. She was a pood moth
er and wife. One by one, we'll all
be gathered home.
