A SHORT SERMON
By ELDER DONALD W. DAVIS
PRE-EXISTENCE OF MAN j
It is our duty to study the
many conflicting theories as to
where man came from, and why
he is upon the earth, and see if
they coincide with the Bible, be
cause; Sincerity of belief does in
nowise establish the correctness
of a principle, it does not matter
how long a person has believed
a certain thing if it is not true it
never will be. Man’s belief does
not effect a principle in the least,
the whole world may believe it
and yet it may be untrue or the
whole world may disbelieve it and
yet it be true.
The unbelief in Noah’s day did
not stay the flood. Noah warned
the people if they did not repent
they would be destroyed and they
were. The Jews were sin
cere when they crucified Christ,
yet it did not prove him an im
poster, or the killing of the pro
phets did not prove their doctrine
falser
Truth, no matter where it is
found, will triumph over error
the words of a poet express that
thought very beautifully—“ Truth
is the work of God, falsehoods
are the work of men. Truth crush
ed to the earth will rise again,
the eternal years of God are
hers. But error, wounded, writh
es in pain, and dies among its
worshipers.” —Bryant.
We believe that we existed as
spiritual children in the presence
of the Heavenly Father before
we were bom upon this earth.
This is brought out in many in
stances by the earthly prophets
and the Lord’s dealings with
them. The Lord speaking to Job
said: “Who is this that darkeneth-
Council without knowledge? And'
he asked Job where he was when
he laid the foundations of the!
world, when the morning Stars
sang together and the sons of
God shouted for joy. Now Job
must have been somewhere or
why the question? Who were
these sons of God who shouted
far joy? Luke gives us the ans
wer in giving the geneology of
the Human race, “Which was the
son of Enos, which was the son
of Seth, which was the son of
Adam, which was the son of
God.”
PERSON COUNTY TIMES ROXBORO, N. CL
One of our ancient prophets in
Edl. 12: 7 says “Then shall the
I dust return to the earth as it
was and the Spirit return unto
God who gave it,” Now how can
i we return unto a plaice where
i we haven’t been. We can go to a
f place but we can’t return unto a
place unless we have once been
there. When death takes us our
earthly body decomposes and re
j turns to the dust of which the
earth is made of, and the spirit
returns unto God who gave it,
under His jurisdiction, t
Again we find that the Apostles
must have had a knowledge of
pre-existence. When they passed
by the blind man they asked
Jesus (John 9: 13) “Who did sin
this man or his parents that he
was ibom blind?” plainly showing
that he could have sinned before
he was bom.
Paul in his writings to the Heb
rew Saints says, “Furthermore
we have had fathers of our flesh
which corrected us and we give
them reverence, shall we not
much rather be in subjection unto
the Father of our spirits and live.”
(Heb. 12: 9) Here we learn why
we address Him as our Father
who art in Heaven to distinguish
Him from our earthly fathers.
Pre-existence is plainly taught
by the Saviors, who spoke thus,
“What, and if you shall see the
son of man ascend up where he
was before,” and again “no man
shall ascend up to Heaven but
he that came down from Hea
ven.” (St John 3: 13.)
Before birth, now, and after
death each at us has been, is,
and shall be, a distinct person
age—the same being throughout,
of unchanging identity and there
fore everlasting. You were you
and I was I before we were bom
into these bodies of flesh. You
shall be yourself and I shall be
myself beyond the grave.

LESPEDEZA:
All lespedeza that has not been
seeded should be put on the field
just as soon as possible. The
weather this spring has been so
unfavorable for field work that
a number of farmers have not
finished sowing lespedeza. If this
is to be seeded on small grain
crops or any other seed that
has not been recently prepared,
the land should be harrowed with
a section harrow either before
or after seeding the lespedeza.
If lespedeza is seeded on top
of small grain land without har
rowing, washing rains may come
and float the unharrowed seed
into puddles, This will give a
very uneven stand, with many
bare spaces in between bunches
-of lespedeza that are far too
FAMOUS WOMEN TALK ABOUT SILVER
(Fr»m AMU Gttd Huutknpmp SUpatmt)
Mrs. Borge Rohde (the former
Ruth Bryan Owen, Envoy Extraor
dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary
to Denmark) has had thirty years of
enjoyment from the fiatwear you ~ee
pictured here. Bought before her
marriage, this simple pattern has
never failed to give Mrs. Rohde that
little glow of pride that we all asso
ciate with our fine possessions. “One
does not tire of simple things,” says
Mrs. Rohde, in speaking of her
pleasure in her silver.
Her silver fiatwear has seen lots

of important duty—in such varied
places as Jamaica in the West
Indies, London, Cairo, and Wash
ington, through to diplomatic duty
in the American Legation in Copen
hagen, where Ruth Bryan Owen
Rohde did her official entertaining.
She has a service for eighteen,
although in some pieces that are
necessary for state dinners she has
as many as five or six dozen of a
kind. Mrs. Rohde does not remem

siders it irrelevant to its beauty.
thick. Also, if lespedeza is seeded
on top of a hard seed-bed with
out harrowing, the seed will
sprout and start off with very
shallow roots, The plants thus
handicapped cannot make a good
hay crop and they are very easi
ly killed by drought.
However, if the wheat, barley
or other small grain has grown
to any considerable height, the
harrow might injure the grain—
especially if the stalk has begun
to joint.
Those farmers who wish to
have lespedeza count as a soil
building practice this year should
keep in mind that one acre of
lespedeza counts only one-hall
unit Heretofore each acre of les
pedeza seed has counted one
unit. However, for 1939, each
acre of lespedeza seeded will
count only one-half unit of soil
building practice, according to
the rules and regulations.
PASTURR:
Each 10 lbs. of good seed ol
adapted padtjure grasses or le
gumes applied in re-seeding de
pleted pastures will count as one
unit of soil-building practice. In
no case will credit be given in
excess on one unit for each acre
on which the practice is carried

Dorothy Kilgallen, star reporter
who is famous for racing by air
round the world against two mascu
line competitors and for her syndi
cated column “The Voice of Broad
way,” has an interesting point of
view about her silver.
“I see so much of the tinsel and
make-believe of Broadway that I
probably appreciate more than most
people the beauty of sterling silver.”
Miss Kilgallen Is acquiring her
silver by the place-setting method,
periodically buying all the pieces

kinds of pieces can be grouped to
make a place setting, but Miss Kil
gallen has chosen to include a din

butter spreader, oval soup spoon,
and teaspoon in her place setting--.
• When asked why she chose the
pattern called “Greenbriar,” she
said: “1 was choosing the silver lor

would look well in almost any type
of decorative scheme.”
out.
There are many pastures in
the county which could be im
proved by re-seeding this spring.
Cut the sod with a disk harrow
set almost straight, so as not to
destroy the old sod. Then apply
fertilizer and *>w seed. An ap
plication of 200 to 400 pounds an
acre of fertilizer suitable for
corn may be applied; or a liberal
application of manure. One ton
of ground limestone should be
applied on each acre unless this
quantity has already been ap
plied during the last few years.
For the best pasture, apply a mix
ture of superphosphate, or add
phosphate, and ground limestone.
Even if it is too expensive to
treat a whole pasture at one time
one acre, or even a part of an
acre may be treated-and re-seed
ed each year.
