TEACHING THE LAW OF GOD
Nehemiah 8:1-3, 5, 6, 8-12

is ever true that one must “Take time
to be holy.” Nehemiah and Ezra are in
perfect accord regarding the basic
need for spiritual life. The same Law
of God, that was the only adequate
guide in the past, had to be again fol
lowed if right living was to be main
tained and the favor of God continued.

These readers uttered the words
“distinctly” and “gave the sense.”

such action and interpretation when

that as a whole the state had such a
high iodine content that no other state
in the union could compete with it.
The problem, explained Mr. Smoak,
was to educate the people of the state
as to the, wonderful opportunity which
they had in growing vegetables on ac
count of the high iodine content and
then marketing them through the for
mation of canning companies. It was
the plan of the commission, he said,
to encourage the operation of canner
ies in every county of the state.
“I come to you today,” said Mr.
Smoak, “with a message of hope and
cheer.” Never, he said, had he seen
anything that has done more to dis
sipate gloom and stir up enthusiasm
over the future of the state than the
campaign now being conducted to i
realize the benefits from the iodine ■
discovery. The Pee Dee section has'
already been organized, he said, and'
the Piedmont section will be organ
ized this weerk. Then will follow the'
organization of the central section,
after which will follow a stat9-.wide
meeting of country resource commis
sioners to work out a program of de
velopment. This is not a sectional or
political movement, he'said, but a
plan for the development cl the state i
as a whole and he made an earnest \
plea for united support. j
Mr. Smoak urged upon his hearers ‘
the importance of growing more
vegetables as a substitute for cotton
and also the importance of South Car
olina people buying their own pro
ducts. He called attention to the wide
.'field of opportunity to be found in
j growing the large amount of vege-
I tables and dairy products, both fresh
and canned, being brough into the
State from other sections and urged
that housewives demand the home
products from ::ie:r grocers. He
charged that the large number of
bank and business failures in the state
during the past few years was due
to the state’s own delinquencies in not
growing and buying its owm productSs
Over $5,000,000 in dairy products
alone, he said, come into South Caro
lina from one state, not to mention
other products brought from other
states. The state, he said, cannot be
gin to prosper until the people grow
what they eat. The demand for South
Carolina vegetables has already been
created, he said, and it only remains
to produce and market them to reap
the benefits which belong rightly
here.
back many of those who have already
departed. The state cannot hope to
hold its young people, he said, when
there was nothing here for them to
do.
The meeting was held under the
auspices of the extension forces of
Clemson college and was planned by
County Agent C. B. Cannon and
County Home Agent Mary Shaw Gil
liam. A large number of people, in
cluding many women, attended and
gave the speaker very close attention.
KILL YOURSELF~WHO CARES/
Down in Houston, Texas, a man has
discovered thdt danger signals are
based on the wrong psychology. He
says tell a man to “Stop, Look, Lis
ten,” and he is impelle<l to do none of
the three. He suggests for railroad
crossings:
“Come ahead. You’re unimportant.”
“Try our engines. They satisfy.”
“Don’t stop. Nobody will miss you.”
“Take a chance. You can get hit by
a train only once.”
And We think he is about right!—

troduced to explain the plans and pur
poses of the organization.
In his introductory remarks Mr.
I Smoak gave a history of legislation
(leading up to the formation of the
'South Carolina Resources commission.
{Pointing out that its primary object
was to develop the resources of South
Carolnia, he stated that the movement
was initiated following the discovery
as early as the World war that the
state’s vegetable products had a very
high iodine content, as compared to
other states, and that this discovery
was very important because iodine
was an essential element in the pre
vention and treatment of goiter. (Con
trary to earlier opinions, he said, it
had been found that the iodine con
tent was higher in the Piedmont coun
ties than in the coastal counties, but
