H This,' she said, was absolutely necessary if the teacher was successful in her work and that the State Course of Sudy outlined minimum essentials for oach grade. . She, also, pointed out the fact that pupils in the schools1 all over the country were in a chaotie mix-up from the standpoint of classification, That pupils were going to high school long before -they were ready; to go and as a result were not able to do a good type of work.- She made a plea to. the teachers to study the Outline CoursdP-ell-Study and to be sure that AT ' -1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 It.'.l-t voeir pnpiiB imu atvuiuiea un miuiinuw essentials before they were promoted. - Mr. Homer Henry, former superin tendent of schools, made a very ef fective talk in . which he , urged the loyal support of the entire teaching staff to the saw administration, ' 1 DEATH TAKES TOU.H ; t ' v&OF ..PROMINENT MEN 'vMtBy H.

Now the question will arise, "Why I object to Bobbed Hair?" Just because I am opposed to everything that is contrary to the Word of God. In the name of high Heaven what has become of the old-time fathers and mothers? Why can't we see how our boys and girls are going? May God help us all to see these thinsrs as God sees 'it.

Every consecrated Christian today is being tested from day to day; with the wickedness of this world. We read in the blessed old Bible of the trouble that has been brought on the people from time to time by God's children disobeying Him. There never has been a time in the history of. the world when professed Chris tians were dealing mora with sin than they are .today. Every vain, sinful amusement, that can be thought of, even in the churches or on the church grounds, box suppers," pie suppers. take walls, i t cream suppers, t pay expenses of the church. God pity the church that has to court the world and the devil to get money this way.- This is tainted mon ey, and we read what God has said and done for using tainted money and lama sacrifices. May God help us to remember these things. Just a few more things of the world fathers, mothers and even deacons, preachers, and lay members of the different churches will buy bathing suits for their girls and send them or take them to bathing pools, boy and girls, men, ao4,WQmen together, and these same people will go to the church where' the old saints of. God are yaahiifr fetftd"mal6a all nmnner of fun of them, but still they will wallow in the old slimy "frog pond." Also the same church members will take their children to the shows and dances and card tables, and father or mother that buys their child a bath ing suit for these public pools, or a ticket to a show, and takes them to a dance or card table is just furnishing them with a ticket to everlasting de struction. Even our church mem bers will go to these places instead of going to prayer meetings, church members will have what they call parties1, but they are just frolics after all. Church members dancing with church members! We know what dancing caused one time. It caused John the Baptist to lose his head just because he condemned sin. We have more commands in the Bi ble to keep the Sabbath dav than any other thing, but this command is being broken in more ways than any other command. It is being broken more by the automobile than any one thing, on the earth today. I see church, members go to church at the eleven o'clock service and will just come up in a Christian handshake, and then hardly wait until they are dismissed to go home and jump in their car and start out on the high way joy riding, breaking the Holy Sabbath day. Then others will stay in their places of business and sell gasoline, oil, and all sorts of repair. Merchants in Madison County, N. C; will keep their stores open on Sab bath days and sell from five cents to . five hundred dollars worth of goods on one Sabbath day. Other men and women will go out on the Sabbath day and attend to business- all kinds except God's business. PAINTIMC AN POWDERING Please just go with me to 2 Kings,. 9th . chapter and 30th verse And when John was come to Jesreal, Jz ebeF heard oY afamfamaite her" face, and tied her head and looked out of a window. This is the woman that scared old Elijah, and many Elijahs are scared today. PRIDE Isaiah 3rd chapter For behold, the Lord, the lord of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and and the staff; the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water. Let us go a little further and see why this was done. Moreover the Lord saith, "because the daughters of Zipn are haughty and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and minc ing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet, therefore, the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion." Look out! Bobbed hair: these were God's children that went astray. ' Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls, but they said we will not walk therein. Yes, truly they have said by their actions today that the old iaths are too plain that there are no worldly amusements in the old paths. Isaiah 30:10 Which say to the seers, no; and to the prophets, proph- ! esying not unto us right things, speak THE GOD OF FASHIONS The , few leaves that ' made old Mother Eve a dress would make two dresses now. The latest styles from Paris are just coming in now. One a half yard to make a full dress. I have seen them passing my plaoe. And we see some women and girls wearing men's, clothing. Please go with me to the good old Bible and just see what it says. Read Deuter onomy 22 and 6. The women shall not wear;. that which pertains to a man; neither shall a man put on a woman's garment; for all who do so are a Domination unto tne Lora. - .,-,. ,.!mm -mfv, tMnm, nMnk.ni We see. young women passing the: i'jMBt..V-- highway with men's clothing on and fa large part, of -their lower limbs naked. ': BOBBED HAIR V Men who go to the barber shops tell me. (iry can hardly get a shave. on account ' of girls, young women, and mothers having their hair bobbed. Also their .'necks shaved. But this question 'of - bobbed hair has caused more discussion, more family - strife, more - heartaches, more tears," than anything for the last year or two. - It has led to this' separation of husband and wife, it has furnished work for the ' divorce courts. If these things NOW AS TO DEVILLUTION ' It is something very serious, but the tilings that I have written about are damning more souls than every thing else. Now to lay members, Deacons and Preachers: If there was ever a time in the history of this world that we should rise and condemn these popu lar sins it is today, I thank God to day for old-time religion It saves men and women from their sins. - May . God's richest blessings rest on all the family of God. - - J. C .RAMSEY, Jr., Marshall, N. G R. F. D.
