, March, which brings us spring
(at last) is upon us; Many peo
ple are unaware that in early
Colonial days- the year began in
March.
March is a month of many
memories and anniversaries, for
Americans. March 2nd is the
anniversary of Texas Independ
ence Day, March 3rd is the an

Patrick's Day...; which falls on
March 17: Grover . Cleveland's
birthday anniversary, which , is I
observed on March ., 18, .1837 (ini
Caldwell, New Jersey); and Wil- j
liam James Brian was born at
Salem, Illinois, March 19, 1860.
In addition, Patrick Henry
made his famous speech in favor
of the militia ? for Virginia on
March 23, 1775. Maryland Day
is observed on - March 25, and
John Tyler, tenth president ofj
the United States, , was born at.
We address ourselves to the
business men of , Perquimans
County and the purpose of our
remarks is to direct their atten-t
t ion to education as the greatest
promoter: of business that exists
in the world today.
We have been - conscious of ,
some business men, when they ,
pay their taxes, complaining of .
the cost of; education.. Actually,!
' they are now, reaping the bene- '
fits of money expended in the
past in. -this county and else-'
where.- for the purpose of edu- j
eating boy? and girls.,'. ..
Ji.j We :.- have no figures available
for . the present but, . if one re
flects, we ;are satisfied he will
be convinced that the greater the,
' average educational level in any .
area, the greater the economic
. activity. Ignorant people do not
i have the desire to purchase any
,; thing more than the rudiment
ary, necessities of life. Educat
ed people, on' the other hand,
with varied; interests, buy the
products of modern industry.
We call attention to this mat
ter because business - men, in
. their quest to lower expenses, !
should' not begrudge , the taxes
- that they pay to support . our

Lesson Text:- Mark 5:18-20;
Luke' 10:1-2: Acts S:42; '
I Thesaalonians 1:6-10.
The lesson for this week stress
es the importance of evangelism
and should lead adults to witness
for Christ. - .
In the lessons for the preceding
two weeks we have noted that a
united Christendom speaks ' with
greater authority than do churoh
es rent by divisions. We have i
so seen that the church is busy
in the world proclaiming the jus
tice and the love of God;. , Chris
tian unity and social participa
tion are both instruments oi
evangelism. How can we further
evangelism in our own communi
ty? ' -
The first and obvious answer
that comes to our minds is: By
living a Christian " life . .::,by
practicing what we preach. A
church is always of greater sig
nificance than its own size. Ken
neth Pope once said that if a
church adequately ministers to its
own membership, both, its spirit
and its program will inevitably
influence those outside its formal
life. 1 This outside influence
springs both from its program of
evangelism and from its other ac
tivities that involve it in the com
munity. 1 ' '
Let 'us, study ;the first of; the
texts chosen, for : this.' lesson
Mark 5:18-20'.'-. .-. the 'man who
had been possessed with1 demons
beerced him that he might e with
him: , But he refused an4-,saidj
to htnvuo nome io yuurvuwfUB,
and teU them how much the Lord
has ione for you, and how he hM
hacf ffiercy on you.' And He went
away and began to proclaim .
and all men marveled."
' J Jesus always suited his method
of teaching or healing to ,ine
needs of the individual or group
with whom, he was-dealing, andj
usually admonished them to tell -
Lno one of what had been done for,.
them. In the incident quoted,1
however, he reversed this'pattern';
and, instead, dsked the healedi
man to go home and tell his '
friends about his good fortune. .
Jesus, in bther words, was point
ing out the fact that those who
witness for him do not necessari
ly have to travel abroad, but cart
find fertile ground for soreading
the pospel right where thev live.
As Christians, we should conT
stantly" bear this in mind, and be
guided by it in our daily contacts
wnn anose in our own communi
ty, churched or un-churched. A
constant example of Christianity
in our everyday life will inevi
tably bring respect and admira
tion from the man who does not

belong to'any particular denomi
nation, and, inevitably? the next
'step in his .train of .thought will
be ; ; : "So-and-so seems to get
la lot out of his church and its
(activities t . ; Maybe it has some
thing to offer me." The seed ha?
. been planted, and from this point
I onward it is simply a matter of
little care and attention; to bring
it to fruition.
- In studying our second text for
today, (Luke 10:1-2 and the fine
' from ' which our Memory Selec- j
tion is made) we find Jesus send
ing seventv men ahead' of him.
. to spread the word of the gosnnL
and to tell of. his rominsr.' This
is the second step in eyaneelism
on home ground; the territory is
graduajly being ' wideped,, ajjd
new "ground is being1 soueht for
the sowing of the seeds of Cbsisr
