Enthusiasm Runs High At Bi^tiet Held In Newberry h Prepara^h iFiNr Opening of Quality Service Stores Merchants Advised To Put Their Whole Pefscnality In Busi ness. QSS Most Successful In Other Cities. (From The Newberry Observer) Fired by enthusiastic confidence in the future of the independent retail i ion Davis and Senator T. L.

Approximately 150 persons were present. Mayor J: Mar- SS livered most apropriate addresses, af ter which several other speakers were on the program, Mr. Woodward, of- ticial of the Q. S.

Senator Hill heartily urged the members of the unit to help each other j world.” The first portion surely deals with the title for today: “Helping Neighbors in Need.” Other selected references are Luke 10:25-37, James 1:27, just quoted, and James 2:14-17. While many will admit that they have obligations of this kind not a few will seek to evade the issue by asking the question, “And who is my neighbor?” which brdught forth the wonderfully direct parable of the Good Samaritan, which is the passage from and to help their customers. He stated that % magnificent opportunity to ren der a genuine service was awaiting the Q. S. S. members. His remarks were to the point and occasioned much I thoughtfulness on the part of the ' merchants. i Other interesting and instructive re marks were made by James P. Mal- Jette. He stated that the greatest, as set the independent had w'as his per sonality and he advised them to sell j Luke. It is frequently the case that it. Attractiveness and well displayed goods, with the lowest possible prices will do the thing up right. And 'that is just what Q. S. S. means. Representatives from Beckers’ Bak ery of Spartanburg, Claussen’s Bak- those who profess the most in formal istic religion are like the priest and the Levite, who were careful to con tinue on their journey. Then there are those who are all but held in contempt who reveal the milk of human kind- practice. Deeds are a fine index of our leal purpose. The selection from Matthew takes us back to the last day of public teach ing when he addressed the people Doth! within the city of Jerusalem, and later { in the day on the Mount of Olives. To ward the close he turned their atten tion to the sublime fact that there will be an audit made of every life. No triumph of any earthly monarch can I compare in grandeur with the setting of that judgment day. He had been the Good Shepherd and the imagery is of a shepherd separating the sheep from the goats. People are still ready to entertain a noted person and get their names on the first page of the news paper. It is quite another matter to make an equally sumptuous affair (Dec. 8-2) and offer hospitality gra ciously to the derelicts of society. Yet Jesus asserted ‘ that such an act of helpfulness would be reckoned as done unto the. King, whose people were thus cared for. Notice the variety of servic- ery of Columbia, Clinton Bakery of ness, as did the Samaritan. All the es that the Master suggested: food. coopera-!; Clinton, the Southern Biscuit com pany, all made short and appropriate remarks. In bringing the banquet to a close, Mr. Woodward spoke on what the Q. S. S. means to the merchant and the community. He stated that tion and not competition is the life of | trade. He urged the members to work j < ► j together for the good of the unit, and' ' cooperate to make the best service i possible. i j Thanks were accorded the American { ! Legion Auxiliary for the supper and j j the names of those making the ban-1 I quet possible were read. while the command is resting on us which is found in the golden text, “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy self,” Leviticus 19-18. We evidence drink, clothing, a bed, or just a visit to one who is in prison by reason of some hard circumstance. Such acts do not effect salvation, for that corned only through the sacrificial woi#4ni; cross. Kindness to others does c for those'who are heirs of graced Those deeds are not done with f|ie re-, ward in mind but rather in the of and for the sake of Jesus CKirfat; Paul’s familiar statement, “Whalpo- ever a man soweth, that shall he reap,” applies to good and bad 4eed^ ' and to those who neglect to be posi^ < tive in either direction. The Teacher , was very positive in denouncing tbm siifs of omission. All waste houra rafli- er than serve minutes in helping oar neighbors. Open your eyes, reach out y<mr< hftnds and you will be in contact with some “neighbor” who needs what you are well able to do. Then we hara a different attitude in kindness toward the one we are really seeking to help. — -- — Dr. Frank F.
