Partnership Entered as second-class matter November 11th, 1936, at the Pont Office, Burnsville, North Carolina, under the act of March 3, 1879. W “Through This Preacher’s Study Window” 1). B. Alderman, Pastor 'Mt : . Burnsville Methodist Church mfr?K Each person preaches a' gospel. Every day you live you write another sermon to go in your body of life. As St. Francis of Assissi implied to a student once, you are a walking sermon by your living each day, even if you do pot say a word. Therefore, you are a book that someone reads and studies. You cannot say that you are not an influence to someone. No person liveth un to himself; no person is an island. There are several charac ters in the Bible whose lives preached gospels but only three will be mentioned here. First we read of a man called Enoch. Because of his preach ing in daily living we have heard much of him—that he “walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.” Then we read of another man, Methuselah, Enoch’s son, who lived 969 years. The only re cord we have of Methuselah is that he lived 969 years, be gat children and died. The difference in what we know of this father and son is the dif ference of their daily preach ing through living. Now we have another man| who lived about one-thirtieth t of the years Methuselah lived,( but know considerably more I about him.

It is not how long -you live, but how you live. r If we all preach a gospel each day, why preach any thing less than the Gospel, that it is Eternal and worth while. Christians preaching today are preaching in a day of conflict. That is more the reason we should preach The Gospel. The Gospel is a l'ruth and nas all the preparations for any battle of life. God wants to know’ if we who call , ourselves Christians are ready to use it. Ht asks today, where are the Christians “Where are the reapers?” We under stand that “narrow is the W’ay, and strait is the gate, which leadeth unto life,” because so few travel the way. If more traveled it, the path would be wider. Christians have a positive message of the rebirth if your soul. Your hope is based upon truths, dig deep into them, and live your years rich and 1 full of glory. At this Easter \ time we should have a new 1 resurrection deep in our souls, a new certainty, and a glori ous Gospel to live every day jas we preach.

NOTICE I have been informed that the Asheville Citizen of March Bth 1952 carried an article stating that my name together with Mr. James Proffitt, of Bald Creek, and Mr. Grover Hunter of Burnsville, had been sent to the Asheville Citizen as having been recom- ■ mended to be members of the Board of Elections and sent in by some one representing I the States Rights party. I call ed the editor of the Asheville Citizen trying to find out who took the unusual liberty to send in my name without my knowledge or consent, and was advised they received it from Mr. Dave Clark, Chair man of the States Rights par ty, Charlotte. I then called Mr. Clark by telephone and he advised me that the names were telephoned to his office from some one in Asheville unknown to his office, and that the Asheville informer had received the names from some one in Yancey County. I wish to make the following statements in order for the people of Yancey County to know the truth in this mat ter. First, the- position I hold in the public health program through the North Carolina State Merit System forbids any employee to take any ac tive part in sponsoring any political party, or individual (We are under the Hatch Art). Second, I am duly and legally registered with the political party of my choice and it certainly is not the States Rights party. I know of no reason why any one should have taken such liberty and authority in their hands with out my knowledge. I will ap preciate it very much if any one knows the person or per sons responsible, if they will be kind enough to give me their name. Jake F.

To Rdmx Misery C 5666 Olt TMUTS-MINI HIT MUM m. ■" ■ ' ” "" ----- n . ~ I , By RICHARD HILL WILKINSON They were watching a movie the night that Alice came 'to her decision. They had been en gaged two years then. They would have been marked 12 months ago, but Jud didn’t feel that they could get along on the commissions he made selling tours for the travel agency which employed him. He had ideas that he was working on that he had expected to materialize long since. He wanted to establish a freight line to haul lumber down from Maine under sail. Money in it. But he gave that up for an exclusive summer cruise idea, also involving sailing vessels; Alice liked anything having to dp with the water, and both ideas appealed to her. It had been Jud’s idea, his dreams of ad venture, that had drawn her to him In the first place. The summer cruise plans had gone by the board in favor of a travel agency of his own. He was working on that plan now. In the dim light of the theatre she looked at him. He had a strong profile. The movie enthralled him. Its title was “Mutiny on the Bounty.” Presently she looked away and Jud stirred. “O. K., let’s get out of here.” If that wasn’t like him! never finished anything. Couldn’t even wait to see the movie through. They crossed the Common and Charles street and found a bench in the Public Garden. It was a warm night, moonless. Tremont street's electric signs winked at them through the trees. “I must tell him,” Alice thought. “I can’t let this go on. Marriage would mean unhappiness for both of us. Never finishing anything.” "I’m glad you wanted to leave me show,” Jud said. “Glad! I?” His arm went about her shoulder. “I got kind of nervous myself, thinking of what I had to tell you.” “Anotherjdea?” she said, hating the sarcasm in her tone. “The same ideas. I suppose they , do sound shopworn, but when you get a good idea you can’t afford to let it go by the board. I’ve got the money.” “What money?” "Why, the money to begin opera tions.” % She stared at him. “I didn't know you' needed money to begin.” YJE LAUGHED. “You can’t very well buy sailing vessels without it. Kent Barker has been going over the plans. He’s the bigwig I went to with the idea. He thinks as I do. We’re buying four ships right away. Three of them will be in condition THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1952 ■UMBO^Wj ni| 8-txposure roll de ! loped, jumbo-printed 6- £TJ •led beck inß fours— oitpaid.

We’ve already got con tracts to begin hauling lumber.” “You mean you're actually going to —to haul lumber under sail?” “And make money at it, too. It was a cinch to pick up crews of unemployed sailors. We’ve got it figured down to the dollar. We can underbid our competitors by quite a margin. “This winter we’ll get the fourth vessel into shape. That involves more expense installation of plumbing equipment, building new and bigger cabins, remodeling the whole thing. Next spring we’ll ad vertise cruises under sail. The idea ought to have a big success., It's novel.” Alice swallowed something. Her eyes were starry. “Jud, that’s won derful!” “Os course we’ll have to have our own agency to promote this cruise under-sail business. It’s doubtful if any -of the established bureaus would want to handle it. They wouldn’t push it or give it the ad vertising afternoon. By the way, 1 bought you something.” He fished into his pocket and pro duced a tiny box. Alice’s breath caught in her throat. “Jud! It—it's—oh, I can’t tell you how beautiful it is!” He slipped the ring on her finger and kissed her. “Now don’t begin to fret about the expense because I quit my job. I’m beginning to work for Barker tomorrow. Incidentally, I'll prob ably have to spend most of the winter in Maine. Do you mind?” “Oh, Jud! I won’t see you at all?” "At Christmas, perhaps, and then not again until spring.” His eyes twinkled. “Unless you want to choose the alternative.” “Alternative?” • “Well, we could get married now and take an apartment in Portland for the winter. Or we can wait until spring, and make the first voyage of the Alice our honeymoon trip.” Alice said in a small voice: “But won’t there be others on the first voyage of the—the Alice?” “Let’s hope so. If our plans go through there will be. That’ll be a chance we’ll have to take.” Alice looked at him. “If ouf plans go through,” she repeated. She shook her head, laughed. “Let’s not take a chance. Let’s get married now and take an apart ment in Portland for the winter. Personally, I don’t want to risk the possibility of your plans not going through and having to spend our honeymoon in the company of a lot of summer tourists.”
