Minister Advises hevoted ‘Sister (Jary’ Followers To *Let Her Alone: Hath Wrought Good^ Dedicated To The Spirit 0* Jesus Christ With the publication of this edition. The C'AKOLINIAN has re-thought its slogan of “North Carolina’s Leading Weekly. ' And. its management has selected, the following words as a suhtitle: Ledicated to the spirit of Jesus Christ, but intends to assume a more provocative spiritual sense throughout its responsibility to its entire operation and clientele. In fad. beginning now. the spiritual Editor and Publisher will be our Master. Jesus Christ. Through His spirit, this newspapei seeks His guidance in furthering its services to our readers and advertisers. There comes a time when all businesses must pause and reflect upon their pasts and chart their future courses. That time is now for The CAROLI.NIAN. And. as we chart our future course, there is unquestioned belief that the spirit of Jesus Christ is the .Master of our destiny and the forerunner of our growth when we accept Him as our Head. With this concept topping our credo, we intend to forge steadily ahead with an improved product, through His management of our spiritual and material officers. We have been blessed for over Jk years with a steady material growth. However, it is our firm belief that future increased expansion of its services must take on the element of the spiritual, and we must look to the only source for this dimension in our planning - Jesus Christ - our newly- installed spiritual Editor and Publisher. So. with the past a cherished memory under our management, we look to the future for new insight and guidance, through the spiritual, coupled with the material, to lay bare our worth in the world of news and service to our reading public. We trust you will be critical of our endeavors under our new enlightenment as. we believe, there will be less errors, better handling of manuscript presented for publication and a greater desire to wards dedication and loyalty at this establishment to our new leadership. Need w e say more? You w ill be our judge. The foregoing is the intended character and personality of The C.AKO- I.INIAN in its years ahead, and we assume this spiritual awakening be cause we know we need aid beyond our past puny efforts in this area of in tangibles. W'e ask your cooperation on bebalf of our new Boss, .And you know His dour is always spiritually open to you. our public.

Dr. Paul Harold Johnson, veteran minister of the historic Martin Street Baptist Church for the past 35 years, launched into one of the most inspiring, heart-rending and moving eulogies for the “homegoing’’^of the Rev.
