H. Y. Belk? ? ? AND HIS NEWS OF NEBO VALLEY * Mr. Bill Ross and wire spent Sunday with the Belks. We were sorry to learn of the death of Bob Self, kiJ led in a high way wreck near Cherryville. The family has our sympathy. Boh was single and only about 22; years old, George Belk, wife and family ? from High Shoals visited at Ne bo Sunday. Old January gone with^ the wind. We really had a lo? of high wind. L*?ta hope we have a deep snow in February and two Jn/March. It makes the children daugh and play. I'm not too old i to enjoy a deep snow. Years don't count lor age. Worry will put you down further than anything.' I live and cast my fears all a- j way. I treat my feliowman a^ 1 j wish the Lord t? treat me. Tj find a class of people we can't j v fool With, lest you get in trouble. | The only way is to let them lie, ! and you say nothing. They will soon run out of anything to say ?about you, when they find ho many people like you. That's the j best way in the world to whip' your enemies. Now don't you dare tell me you have no one that dis- j 'likes you. You are not better than j Christ. They did not stop by ha ting Him. They put Him on > a Cross and took his life. Did you know the chief product from the gov- ; ernment plant at Wash in. g ton, D.. C., is waste paper and hot air.? ' You k n o w ; same as I do that . there are ! millions and mil ions of people who will believe j Just any old thing if its unsea- ! sonablft enough. They believed Truman's promises and now look at the picture. " As Chinese Communists daily kill the soldiers of our govern ment why are our leaders so fear ful of offending China and the Soviets? , Well our rulers know that Rus sia still has over a million Gef mftn soldiers that they never re turned after the war. They are slaving these people to death 7 days a week. We had many Ger man soldiers. We fed and cloth ed them well. Gave them a place to sleep and eat and $1 a day. They liked us so well' they never wanted to go hack to the home land. We' are human, the Rus sians are Inhuman God pity our soldier boys should the Russians take our boys to enslave. How can we be so cruel, so godless? The President of, these 48 Uni ted States are responsible for the conduct today of our foreign af fairs. He cannot abdicate his responsibilities for the conduct of our foreign affairs. He's too ambitious. He gets mad like a Missouri mule, then he bucks and claims I run this show. We have told you readers of the Herald, metals rusts, . stone crumbles. The riches of kings are eaten by moths, but a paid up subscription to the Herald will help to spread V\e gosple of po litical- righteousness and create patriotic thoughts in the readers minds that neither moth can de stroy nor rust crumble or cor rupt. Trumans Bold New Plan does not seem to be getting over the top so fast, This making the world over is a big job for a lit tle man like Harry Truman, or JOhn Doe, as I told you. More than a million German ?Quality Cleaning? ? That's The Brand Yoa Get At ? WEAVERS CLEANING Phone 328-1 prisoners taken by old Stalin's forces to Russia have never been returned. They work these men seven days a week, pay nothing, feed them on thin slop. Some of the men working in the coal pits , are not able to do a day's wofk | and they have no hopes Of ever I going home. Should they get our soldier hoys, no better for them. It would seem people all over America are becoming more prayer conscious. It takes war. to [?bring men and women to their knees. Then we forget when the storm blows over and the bless ed sunshine comes out again. We drift back Into the same old ruts. Not all. Some men and women, though few they be live each day as if that was the last day they had left. That's a beautiful way to live. I must admit I've never ! got to the place where I've been I abte to live like thoae. I dd strive I to treat my fellowman as I j would have them treat me. It we J understood folks better, we might | like them better. By the way, ! some folks won't let you like | them. I believe I know human ! nature as well as you preachers j do. All preachers are not perfect j but -if they are good they have a | much better chance to hold the people up. I read in the Book of j Books where He, Christ, says ; "None good no not one." So that 'does away with sinless perfec j tion. The Bible is the only abso lutely Holy Book ever written. If we enter the haunts of infamy where the soiled doves of' the underworld hide in sin and shame, no Bible,. Vile pictures on the walls and listen to the vile i stories as they are poured out | from the depraved hearts. I fear j many of our preachers are asleep I at the switch, while the train is | past "due. ? . j We're trying to make the reader i public a better paper to read each j week. Its our endeavor. We speak out our sentiments with our convictions. Its true we can't always please every one without hurting our own feelings. We love to help you feel better, If we don't feel no better. We don't take any vacations. We hammar at it all the time. In most all vo cations men and women draw a vacation. All work and no play makes Jack a dull hoy, and Mary a slow student. I being dull to start with, I grow no better. I haven't skipped but one column in five years, then the doctor was partly responsible for that. He kept me in bed all week, then I got weaker. It takes no little | effort to keep the paper coming I through the mail each week 52 Shaw Heads Crop Improvement Group K. J. Shaw of Laurinburg was elected 'president of the N. C.
