FELLOWSHIP THROUGH WORSHIP
Psalm 122:1-9; Hebrews 10:22-25
People of similar thought have the
habit of coming together to consider
the matters which are of common in
terest. Both danger and joy produce
great assemblages. There is no great
er appeal for oneness than in our be-
Kef in God. From the beginning of rec
ord He has been worshipped both in
private andwpublic.__We delight to hon
or a friend with our presence and this
is especially true whep we have re
gard for our best Friend. 'Die Scrip
ture passages for intensive study this
W(^< k are Nehemiah 8:1-12; Micah 4:
1- Psalm 122:1-9; Matthew 28:18-20;
H .’ews 10:10-25.
le call to worship should be ac-
k /lodged by every one who is so
r; y blessed from the Most High
C King as well as peasant should
r( md. It was King David who wrote
tl fellowship hymn that was used,
w . others in the Hallel, as the Jews
went up to Jerusalem for their annual
feasts. They were acting out what
they would sing en route: “I was glad
when they said unto me, Let us go
unto the house of Jehovah.” They were
suiting action to the word.
Whether it be in church or syna
gogue, it is God who is sought by
those who come to worship and He
will be found by them as they are sin
cere in heart. People often cry out in
distress because of their loneliness.
This need not continue when they are
ready to come together in spiritual
fellowship as they make use of the
same throne of grace. Such fellowship
unites peoples of different races, for
God is being known and loved every
where. Race prejudice ceases as we
unite sincerely in singing “Praise God
from whom all blessings flow; Praise
Him all creatures here below.” At the
conventions of the' Worlds Sunday
School association held in Zurich,
1913, and in Los Angeles, 1928, the
entire audience prayed together in
Uheir own language our Lords prayer,
j Fifty nations weje represented at the
! Los Angeles convention. It was truly
' “fellowship throngh worship.”
I In Hebrews the exhortation is “not
• forsaking our own assembling togeth-
Much is lost to every individual
er.
who makes excuses and allows himself
to remain away at the hour of wor
ship. Society needs the uplift from
the church and that gives an added
obligation for personal and loyal sup
port of this institution. The golden
text calls attention to the example of
Jesus, when he went to his local syna
gogue: “He entered as his custom was,
into the synagogue on the sabbath
day,” Luke 4:16. Presidents and kings
follow His method as they lay aside
the affairs of state and join with their
fellow citizens in spiritual worship on
the Christmas sacred day. Those who
are indifferent about being On time at
church or Sunday school imply that
the worship and instructions are of so
little moment to them that it does not
matter how much they miss. The fam
ily altar each day is another place
for “fellowship through worship.”
Such fellowship has much to do in
■preventing strifev whether between
individuals or nations.
Spartanburg Attorney Announces He
Will Run On Anti-B<Hid Platfmrm.
Now Member of Legislature.
Columbia, Dec. 20.—The first politi
cal announcement growing out of the
heated debate over South Carolina's
$65,000,000 road bond issue was made
here today when Olin D. Johnston,
Spartanburg attorney, definitely an
nounced Kis candidacy for governor
In the 1930 campaign. Mr. Johnston
said that he will run on an “anti-bond
issue” platform.
Mr. Johnston is a member of the
South Carolina house of representa
tives from Spartanburg county. When
the bond issue was being argued
in the house last winter he fought the
measure tirelessly.
“Thousands of voters have petition
ed me to run for governor next sum
mer,” Mr. Johnston said here today.
“In almost every request I have been
asked to oppose the $65,000,000 road
bond issue. Opponents of the road
bond issue may rest assured that I
will be against it..
“I mean to pledge to the voters that
no state-wide bond bill would get my
approval as governor unless there is
a clause giving voters a chance to say
whether or not they want it. I will be
the anti-bond candidate.”
Mr. Johnston was first elected to
the house of representatives from An
derson county. For the last four years
he has served as a member of the
Spartanburg delegation. He is an
alumnus of Wofford college and a
World war veteran.
Did Yon Ever Stop
To Think?
I By Edson R. Waite '
I Henry W. Shoemaker, publisher of
The Altoona (Pa.) Tribune, says:
“Whenever I see a crowd of women
with baskets standing at a railroad
station or bus depot going to some
distant town to shop, it seems to me
that they are not only subjecting
themselves to great loss of time and
inconvenience, but are removing the
greatest incentive to local merchants
to be progressive or up-to-date.
“Why some place at a distance has
a larger assortment or later styles
or better taste or markets is only be
cause the demand at home is not
sharpened by local calls.
“Shopping at home is community
building in its most constructive
aiMssa. The home town that has the
buying support of its own people be
comes the shopping center for the dis
trict It becomes celebrated for its
progress and its enterprise, and the
time and money saved by buying at
hon\e creates an invisible savings
ImuUc of local wealth aqd happiness.
“The effect on a town where the
stream of buying goes Elsewhere is
gradual retrogression or discourage-

ment. Outside enterprise is not at-
'tracted there, due to the dull appear
ance of the shops and the deserted
appearance of the streets.
“Buying at home is proviifing a
■sinking fund for the huprovenseiit of
every local business and every citi
zen.’^
