H. Y. Belk l AND HIS NEWS 6F NEBO VALLEY This is a beautiful Match day. 1 reckon most of us should be glad we are living and not in jail, but at times I get as blue as you do. I Bill ?Ross from the Cora village visited your reporter during the weekend. March Is ooning in like a Hon. 1 hope it reforms and quietly passes out like Mary's Little Lamb at School. . jit was bad for bad men to load up Mr. C. J. Gault's bank and take It off. Looks like they would iuvve took the store. They got off fight. They can buy another bank. { We were sorry , to learn Mrs. Mary Horn fell and broke her arm. Then their house at Nebo gat burned to the ground. Mr, Fom and wife have several small children. 'ff? never seem *o know when we are doing well. Just look around and be thank ful for Bfe. Life is a wonderful gift if we have health. I'm glad 3 dont covet wealth. Eggs are giving the Govern ment a headache. The poultry people Insist that the Govern- j ment keep on buying dried eggs, 1 whether anybody wants them or not. Already there la over 70 million pounds of chicken fruit stored in a Kansas cave ? <and the total cost of the egg program is more than $100 million dollars I contacted one merchant in your city. He was selling eggs at S3 cents. I bet the farmer didn't get 25 cents. DM he ever get anyt thing? No, No, by Gosh. We cant' stop the birds from flying over our heads, but we can keep them from building nests In our hair. We can't keep from having evil thoughts in our I hearts, try as we may. Preachers have those, but We, if we try can keep evil from ruling in our hearts and lives. 1 know preach ers have a harder time than we know about. . The devil tempts preachers a lot more than we are tempted. When a preacher falls as a ruie the devil gets the whole congregation. The Devil rather have <a church member than to captivate some old sot he's already got. He's trying to take the U. S. by force right now. He's already got a bunch of men ploked out to run the job,, not all Republicans. Heck Fire Mo. The Democrats, whatever that Is, they' got this once United nation in a hell of a moss. "Understand, H. Y. is not a Republican, and darned if he's a "Democrat. I'm for the man who can row the boat pad dle or no paddle. Universal religion Is all that would save the world Just now? Salvation. But who's going to lead the way? Didn't Noah try for 600 years to convince the peo ple that God was sending a flood. They called him an old fool, but when he drove the last nail in the boat. It began to rain. The people got up on high places. Some of them went up on the mountains. While Noah called in a few of his chosen ones, and, closed the doors. The earth soon became a mighty sea of water. Those people on the hills and mountains climbed a little high er to the top. Now they had faith In old Noah. Too late. They were swept off Into a watery grave. Now our rulers up tat the. Great Capitol are making the Hydrogen Bomb. (It may.be they wish to scare Russia off of the map. Then again It is predicted by some that this man made hell of a thing will so frlghtert the inhabitants all over the world that they will lay down the guns and study war no more and seek the Lord while 'He may be found. It won't work. I remember In 1096 Augue 31, the Lord sent an earthquake and shook the foundation of the earth Men grit religion from the sea to the mountains. People got religi on by the thousands. 1 was too small to get it. By Christmas more of these people were drunk than a few. No sir, this scared lnto religion is no good. You got to get It without floods and ear thquakes, or Hydrogen bombs. By what I can understand God teas a time keeping men on the straight and narrow way. Noah, after God save the seed of His Creation, Noah made homebrew wine, his gals made him drunk celebrating the saving of the Arte. He played the fool. Some one been on drunk ever since. Now our land is polluted with drunk Sciys IDA ECKWAll Studio Dietitian SAMUEL GOIDV* YN PRODUCTIONS, INC. .. ? "Many of tfca lov.li.st stors in Hollywood take diet sugges tion, ffom me," say* Mi*.

Hitler's favorite motto was defend the nation and destroy | her people. What a price we paid to learn how that method work , ed. Aren't we defending the na tion while the ruler Jeopardize tne people with all these bur dens placed on the people with an ever increasing tax? We pay for this deadly Hyrogen bomb. Fellow citizens, are you aware of the fact that the U. S. A. Is headed rapidly to its utter wreckage, due to our own failure to face facts and elect public of ficials for their honesty and abil ity? Rather -than for their party. We are a world of imitators. We Imitate monkeys, mules and Jackasses. But why a man wants to be a Democrat or Republican, because Pop was, is beyond my knowledge, what little I got. While our Congress is shedding tears and spending tons of the laboring people's money in taxes to build Hydrogen bombs. Oh hell, What next? AH .the while Dear Uncle Sam continues to be Uncle Sap ? for which we pay the freight. Now the Soviet Union is using with profit the Liberties Uncle Sam loaned that nation during the war. The scientists have found a way to attach loud speakers to almost everything except the still l voice of a man's conscience, for ! Christ's sake. Uncle Bud. j You, my dear readers don't like | to have anyone bear false wit ness against you, or help to ruin your reputation. They why should we do it to others? How public men are slandered In this country. None escape, whether bad or good. If one tenth of what is said and written about our public men were true, half of us news reporters should be hung. Slander called Christ a glutton ous man and a wine bibber. He claimed to be the truth. What did men do with this Christ? Took Him and crucified Him. When anyone spoke evil of ano ther in the presence of Peter the Great, he'promptly stopped him and said, well, now, has he not a bright side? What good do you know of him? Government of one's tongue is the real true te9t with not only men but wo men as well. As so much of our life is passed In public view, any untruth that leads to a false Judgment Is a grievous wrong to our neighbor. All men axe our neighbor in so far as we can help those who really need our help, but not by telling dirty lies on them. Before we start a lie let's think twice. I Our tongues are small member in our bodies, but it can defile the whole body. Every kind of I beast and bird and serpent in the sea and on the land hath been tamed by man, but the tongue can no more tame itself is an un ruly evil thing full of deadly deadly poison . Thousands of tim es on our courts the tongue has murrede its victims. History Is full of such cases. Often man go on the stand and hang themselv es, lying out of what they did. Lies can never be called back. Whoso privily slandereth his neighbor, him Will I cut off. That. I is ail I know. He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver. You know, I know, when we get a dol lar we crave another dollar and we get it If we can. Did you ever see a man, a woman, that did not love money? I haven't. The most of us haven't got sense to keep their money, but what If all kept it? No good to any of us. I rec kon that's why I spend my dim es. One can make more money with your tongue than you can with two good hands. Hands can't lie. Some believe its hon orable to cheat and lie once we get the. habit. Whoso curseth his father or mothers his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. In many ancient nations today the parents ate killed off as soon as they become old and feeble. The Jews were tnught to honor the father and mother, that included all who governed over them. Believe me or not the lawlessness of the present day is a natural conse quence of the growing absence of ? feeling of respect for those In authority. , U I'm w ong pardon me. H I don't read the old Bible wrong. All .they done was to fight ' and run after women. I can't quits understand how King David could of been a man aftei God's own heart, him warring all the time. When David saw a beauti ful -woman he fell for her. Take the old man and put him In front of the guns on the firing 11ns to get shut of the old fellow. Did not have any, divorce courts. Da vid Ot I a better tester way. Did money. Hadn't fn long ago. I'm telling you Bud, there have al ways been beautiful ga<s ?nd they know how to compel a fool man to faH for them. They have this compelling pownar over men. " ?y??ans on North Cjrotlna farme as of January 1, ?<? t peroe,*t ^ 2JX7JOOO bushels on farm* ? )W earlier and com 48 **?*? <* CIGARETTE BOOSTER ?
