NOAH
CARLYLE said tnat no age need
go down to destruction if only
the e arise a man who knows his
times and can lead. Noah had one
of these qualifica
tions but not the
other. He could not
lead. He preached
for one hundred
and twenty years
to an ever-diminishing
congrega
tion. ,
You can imagine
i the derisive com
ments of his neigh-
IboTS. Forty days
I and nights of rain,
fi '
. indeed! u never
nK9 r had happened be
fore, it never could happen. Noah
was a crazy old fool.
Rut it did come!
In the six hundredth year of
Noah's life, in the second
month, the seventeenth day of
the month, the same day were
all the fountains of the great
deep broken up, and the win
dows of heaven were opened.
And the rain was upon the
earth forty days and forty
nights. ...
And every living substance
was destroyed.
It is an interesting question for
every man to ask himself: "If I
had been on the earth in the days
of Noah, should I have been one
of the survivors or one of the wise
ones who knew it all, If I had
been in Jerusalem in the days of
Jesus, should I have been one of
the few who saw Truth, even in its
rough peasant garb, or should I
have stood with the respectable,
Rainbow Springs
Many cases of a mild form of in
fluenza have been reported in Rain
bow Springs and vicinity and th
number of cases seems to be in
creasing daily.
Dr. and Mrs. Frank Killian have
gone to Los 'Angeles, Calif., where
Dr. Killian plans to attend a med
ical clinic. They plan to return in
three or four months. Meanwhile
Dr. Edgar Angel, of Franklin, is
serving in Dr. Killian's capacity as
company physician for the W. M.
Ritter Lumber company.
The Rainbow Springs school ha
reopened after three weeks Christ
mas holiday.
Jess Brooks, superintendent of
woods operations for the W. M.
Ritter Lumber company, has been
confined to his home with influenza
for several days. He is reported
to be improving.
Mr. and Mrs. Don Smith of the

A W. Agee left Tuesday of last

W. M. Ritter Lumber company,
was confined to his home several

well fed majority, shouting, 'Away
with this disturber. Crucify'?
Only a few have courage and
vision to stand against the crowd;
Noah had both in plentiful amounts.
Thus did Noah; according to
all that God commanded him,
so did he.
A grand tribute to a man who
stood firm and true when humanity
as a whole went wrong. He did
what God told him to do, and he
was justified in the result. And
;hen ?
If you dr I had written the story
we should have pictured the serene
ld age of Noah, in his uniform as
i retired admiral of the navy intro
duced to the fast multiplying pos
terity of mankind as the man who
saved the world. We should have
irovided for him a future worthy
of his great achievement. The rec
ord shocks us:
And Noah was drunken.
Drunk perhaps with his success.
Drunk with pride when people told
him how all his weather predictions
had come true. Drunk with the
iraise which he had richly earned
and could not wisely appreciate.
Drunk also with wine. A shame
ful scene as he lay in his tent,
Ham peering in with mocking
laughter, and the other sons doing
their sorrowful duty.
Noah was drunken. The man who
had saved the world did not con
tinue in the work of its salvation.
The new age that followed the
flood had to find new leaders for
its new problems. Yet so lqng as
the rainbow overarches the storm
cloud the world shall remember the
integrity and courage and obedience
of Noah.

Morganton, is slowly improving.
We wish him a speedy recovery.
We are glad to- report our road
is looking fine as far as the gravel
s poured and we are hoping that
it won't be long until ' it is com
pleted, for our school bus can't get
to the point where it is supposed
to go.
MEATS FOR CANNING
Some canners of meat products
import some of their meat from
South America. This is particularly
true of corned beef, which is ex
ported in great quantity from Ar
gentina and Uruguay. The label on
such products, though showing to
be canned in the United States,
mentions the country of origin.
There are 114,000 blind persons
in the United States.
