The pleasure of wearing on Sun day a boutonniere from Seawright Florist given us as “the Person of the Week” designated by the Black Mountain News for our part in planning and observing Char ter Members’ and Ladies’ Night at the Lion's Club in its meeting two weeks ago was wholly unex pected, but greatly appreciated. In fact credit for the fine program and the large attendance should go to the Lions who served on the committees and did the work in preparation for the banquet meet ing. All together the I,ions did have a great evening the enjoy ment of which was enhanced by the presence of their Lionesses and the fine address given by Interna tional Counselor Hugh Monteith of jylva. To heighten our pleas ure when Mr. Seawright delivered the flower he sent my Lioness a big red rose which made a beau tiful centerpiece for our diaper table Sunday.

Credit is the privilege of get ting something in the present with the promise of paying for it in the future, says Mamie Whisnant. State College extension home man agement specialist. Credit is usually extended in three ways; the charge account, in stallment buying, and the borrow ing of money. Credit will be extended to any person who has the reputation of paying his debts, and whose earn ings are sufficient to enable him to meet his financial obligations. Wise use of credit may mean the difference between success and failure, cautions Miss Whisnant. A charge account is established at various stores where the fam ily buys merchandise. It’s easy to overuse an account because needs are always many, and no auto matic check to the s#ize of a charge account has yet been devised. It is much simpler to say “charge it, please" than to make out a per sonal check for the amount or to pay cash from your pocketbook at the time of purchase. For people who must economize, says Miss Whisant, a charge ac count may be unwise. It has its advantage and disadvantages. 1. It is easier to return unsatis factory goods, since no change of money takes place. This privilege is much abused. 2. Establishes credit, which is helpful in applying for credit else where. 3. Allows for payment of bills all at once and entitles customer of advance notice of new goods, sales etc. 4. Monthly statement from the store gives itemized list of pur chases. This helps in keeping re cords which can be filled for future use. 5. The store is usually more prompt in repairing or “making right” a purchase made on a charge account than when cash is paid. Disadvantages: 1. The ability to charge goods may encourage over-spending. 2. Goods usually cost more at stores where charge accounts are allowed or encouraged because of the bookkeeping involved. Uncol leclable charge accounts increase the cost of this service to custo mers who pay their bills. LETTER FROM KOREA (Written to Pauline Arnold Cir cle of First Baptist Church).

CALL US FOR FAST AND CAREFUL SERVICE Gudger’s Transfer MOUNTAIN VIEW TEXACO STATION Black Mountain Phone 9254 than 600 people gave their hearts ami lives to Jesus Christ. Some of these were GIs. The fight for things eternal is on in earnest in Korea. Christ persuades men and women to look and live forever. Satan and his Communist dupes seek to kill and lead peoples into that DEATH which is also etern al and from whence no traveller ever returns. It’s final! As many of you know during summer, fall and now winter 1 have been going all over South Korea with all the speed and strength we have delivering the relief clothing you have been sending us. Last week in 5 days time 1 travelled about 1,000 miles and delivered about three tons of clothing in the northwestern and northeastern corners of South Korea. During the past 10 weeks my assistant, Mike Chiu, and I have distributed some 13 tons of your clothing to these who shiv er in the biting winds as war marches on its bloody way across the battlefields of suffering Korea. A few weeks ago Mike and I stopped for the night at a Korean inn. Working there was a little orphan girl. After she had our tiny room ready for us to make down our sleeping bags for the night she told us how the war had left her and her little brother homeless. When she had finished her heart-breaking story I gave her some Korean money. Her thin she said, “Now I have enough money to buy a shirt for my small brother who is here with me. Mike and I didn’t tell her then but early next morning we pulled back the tarp on top of our hired truck and began digging into your re lief boxes of clothes. RELIEF! Yes, it wasn’t long until that shiv ering little orphan girl and her small brother were warmly clothed with clothes that had once kept your own children warm. And our pay? Yes, we got that too. As Mike and I looked into those two happy orphan faces we saw smiles that gold and silver cannot buy. It was a happy ilttle party, we four and one more. I think Jesus was there and happy also. No wonder these homeless orphans wanted to go with us on our way. They felt that somewhere in the world there are loving hearts who had sent them these warm clothes who would take them in and shelt er them from the storm that rages around their lonely, homeless lit tle hearts. Won’t some of you speak to our Heavenly Father about them and thousands of oth ers like them. The relief clothing we distribute not only helps keep wolfish win ter from devouring homeless war refugees but it helps prepare the way for the preaching of the Gos pel. When people see us sharing your clothes without money and without price with the corld and needy, young and old they realize that the Gospel of Jesus Christ means business and is not a mes sage of empty word. During my first four months I saw more than 1,000 people pub licly accept Jesus as their Saviour and Lord. After that there were so many in some of our services who believed that we couldn’t count them. So I quit trying to count them and just leave the re sults with the Lord. Everywhere I go touching the ocean on three sides of Korea and almost to the 38th parallel on the north I try to carry out the commission given me at my ordination as a minister of Jesus Christ my Lord, “PREACH AS YOU GO.” During my first year in Korea I have seen the mul titudes eager to hear the Gospel of Christ Jesus and then believe it as I have never seen it before in any nation where I have been. Last year when Brother Aber nathy returned to Korea there were 40 Baptist churches south of the 38th parallel. Today we have 120 Baptist churches and preaching stations here in the South. The Lord is blessing His work. It is amazing how these Korean Baptist Christians go ev erywhere preaching the Word. A few days ago one of our Baptist girls who is a scl^>ol teacher was sent to a town up near the hattle front. She said as she left for her new station, “When I get to my new place I want to start a new Baptist church.” And with the Lord’s help she will do just that. Many of our other new Baptist churches started the same way. At first one Christian and the Lord and then soon there are many Christians, the Lord anu a Baptist church. God’s plan of missionary work cannot be improved upon. It works. A year ago your missionary, Dr. N. A. Bryan, who was in China 30 years, opened our Baptist hos pital in Pusan in a tent with three patients. Now he averages about 300 or more patients a day. Dur ing the year he and his faithful staff of Korean doctors and nurses have GIVEN FREE some 50,000 treatments to 14,200 patients, men, women, children and babies. These 14,200 people have gone in and out through one door into a room only 10 by 12 feet where they received treatments 50,000 of them ranging from itch to lep rosy and from T.B. to Polio. Each day the hospital preacher and Bi ble woman tell these patients about the Great Physician who is anxious to heal their souls for ever. Brothers Abernathy and David Ahn have made a fine team PREACHING, TEACHING and BAPTIZING. They have won and baptized many for the Lord. Also they have done all of the admin istrative work concerning Relief finances buying mission property repairing and building new churches. Mrs. Suento Ahn, one of the saintliest women I ever saw has done most of the interpreting for all who preach in English in the Pusan Baptist First church. Many young people are turned away from Sister Abernathy’s Bi ble classes because there is actual ly no more room for another to get in. We always need your effectual BROWNIE TROOP 55 HAS MEETING AT CHURCH The weekly meeting of Brownie Troop 55 was held in the fellow ship room of the Methodist church on Thursday afternoon, March 5.
