JESUS TEACHING FORGIVENESS
Matthew 18:21-35, and Easter Lesson John 20:1-16
Only about eight month.s intervene; made. Humanity is usually eager for
between the time when Jesus taught! fair play and the fellow citizens take-
the lesson about forgiveness in ,Ca-jthe case to the prince. Then justice
pemaum and the glorious Easter speaks. The ungracious tyrant is re-'
morning that marked the resurrection called and the impossible debt rces-
of’the body of our Lord from the i tablished with no hope of ever dis-
grave. The disciples are still at school j charging it.
with* the Master. Jesus held a quiz God is ready to forgive all when we
class at the base of Mt. Hermon when j are penitent. We, in turn, are to ex-
He asked ' Peter “Who do men say! ercise the grace of forgtveness w hen
that I am?” Now Peter turns the wronged by others. To what extent
question on the Teacher. The man
himself may have been in trouble. Pos
sibly he had been injured by some one
and had forgiven that person three
times, which was the legal require
ment. But Peter knew that as a fol
lower of the new Teacher he must go
further and may have made it double
the number, with one more fpr good
measure. “Master, isn’t seven times
enough to forgive anyone?” The an
swer suggested that with ^even times
the habit -^ras only well started. Let
the act be done 490 times, was the re
ply by w'ay of instruction.
One thing accomplished by forgiv
ing another is to get the cancer of
hatred out of our own heart, other
wise there is mental trouble for us by
day and night One test that we have
truly forgiven another is wh^n we
"sineertfly prify that'ihey'may "exi^ri*
ence God’s richest blessings. Jesus
set the fine example when on the
cross, in the midst of His agonies, He
prayed “Father, forgive th«m, for they
know not what they do.”
Great truths are’remwnbered better
when clinched with an apt illustra
tion, so Jesus added a parable. Here
is a man who owes millions of dollars
and when payment is called for begs
for more time. The situation is already
impossible and nothing remains to be
done but sell man, wife and children
that ev^n a little equity may come to
the prince. Instead the one who is a
prince cancels the entire indebtedness.
This is just the way God forgives the
sinner. It is not a question of the sixe
of the sin but of the abounding love
of the Father. Then this forgiven man,
in the story, looks over his records
and finds a fellow servant who owes
him the small sum jof $17. With un
couth words this paltry debtor is cast
into prison until full restitution is
shall we forgive, even though this is
not sought by the one who has wrong
ed us? The answer is in a petition
that Jesus used in teaching the dis
ciples how to pray. “Forgive us our
debts as we forgive our debtors” is
the well known condition that we j
name in approaching the Father for {
His forgiveness. In the revised version 1
the wwrds cal for our actual act of
forgiveness: “As we also have forgiv
en our debtors.”
Great truths in the Easter lesson
are the facts of the resurrection of
the body of Jesus, which is a pledge
of the resurrection of our own body
at His second coming. Death refers* i
to the body only: “To be absent from
the body is to be present with the
Lord. There is no sleep of the soul
after death. ^Do not worry abo^t
thlnjjfs in advance? The women found
that the stone was rolled away before
they arrived.
Five-year-old Lois June Allen,
orphan daughter of a world war vet
eran. pins the first “Buddy Poppy” of
the Spring campaign on Mr. Hoover's
coat The money from the sale of the
^poppies goes for the relief of disabled
veterans and their dependafits.
POLITICAL POT
BEGINS TO BOIL
SOUP
Soup is doubtless one of the oldest
standbys of food.
In "its oldest forms, of course, it
was served as the mainstay of the
meal. A big bowl of soup with bread,
and perhaps some onions and cheese,
still forms the mainstay of diet in'
many peasant homes.
The more modern, more sophisticat
ed way is to use* soup as something
to tempt rather than to satisfy the
appetite at the big meal of the day. A
bowl oLthick soup is still often served
for luncheon. But for dinner the soups
that whet but don’t satisfy are the
ones chosen.
For that reason the clever hostess
does not serve dried bean soup for
dinner—unless dinner is otherwise a
rather meager meal. Nor does she
serve a thick, rich cream "soup.

Many Will Seek IMums In Laurens
County This Summer, Ind’ra-
tions Now Show.
Laurens, April 13.—With the reor
ganization of the Democratic clubs
near at hand, l.*urens county is look
ing toward the summer primary elec
tions. Already .candidates ace head-,
ing up for the campaign and the indi
cations are that there will be no lack
of aspirants for the various offices
that must be filled by nomination and
election in the summer and fall.
Phil D. Huff is the first of the
house delegation to announce infor
mally that he will stand for re-nomi
nation. O. P. Goodwin is a holdover
state senator.
In the races for county offices there
will be a new lineup, for some of the
vacancies. 0. G. Thoinpsno, Confed
erate veteran, who has held the office
of probate judge since January 1,
1895, or a little over 36 years, has
announced that he wfll retire at the
close of his present..term,, .expiring
at the end of this year.' Candidates,
avowed and prospective, for this of
fice include: C. A. Power, Otis P.
Huff, Laurens; T. Houston Babb,
Gray Court; W. E. Washington of the
Mount Olive section.
Another widely known county of
ficer who is planning to retire from
political office is Miss Kate V. Wof
ford, who was elected county super
intendent of education in 1922, she
being the first woman in the state to
be. plecte^ to this office. Her present
term does not expire until July 1, next
year. After completing her term, Miss
Wofford probably will take post
graduate work at some university be
fore taking up other lines of eiued-
tional activities. Now in the field as
candidates for superintendent are
Duckett Young of Laurens, and Mrs.
Arthur Copeland of Clinton. Charles
F. Brooks, a former holder of the of
fice, at present superintendent of the
Elloree high school, is an avowed as
pirant for the place and will probab
ly announce himself soon.
John D. W. Watts will stand for re-
election to the office of county super
visor. He will be 5y A. Rhett
Martin of Youngs township; J. War
ren Crane, a textile worker of Clin
ton, and probably others.
For the office of county treasurer,
D. Roy Simpson of Laurens, and B. R.
Fuller of Clinton, are definitely in the
race. Roas D. Young, incumbent, has
not announced his intentions regard
ing the seeking of another term.
The county auditor, Sam R. Ddr-
roh, will ask re-election. So far he
has no opposing contestant fer the of
fice.
W. H. Barksdale and A. Homer
Moore, incumbent county commission
ers, will stand for re-nomination, it is
understood. At this time no other can
didates have ventured forth for the
two places on the board.
The sheriff, coroner and clerk of
court hold over for two more years.
NOTICE TO PUBLIC
Until further notice the Board of
County Commissioners will hold regu
lar sessions on Tuesday following the
first day of each month and afternoon
sessions on Tuesday following the
15th day of each month.
The board would prefer to consider
county claims at its first meeting of
the month so that the second meeting
may be devoted to other official mat
ters. And it is earnestly requested
that such claims be filed with the
clerk on or before the last day of the
previous month so that they may be
verified and prepared for approval,
time directing road and bridge work
but for the convenience of the public
he will be at the office every Tues
day afternoon.

Virginia-CardHua Chemical Corporation
48,000 Farmers Say—
The profit on fertillzlne, the profit
paid by the increase that fertillzlnK
brings, piles up to an averaine return
of $3.^4 for .every dollar spent on
fertilizers for all crops in states.
^So says the National Fertilizer Asso
ciation, after interviewing 48.000
fanners and studying their answers.
From everywhere the unmistak
able verdict comes that wLse fertiliz
ing dues pay the farmer who grows
crops fof market. Part of the wis
dom Is in choosing the right ferti
lizer—in deciding to use old reliable
V-0, If you’ll take Full Rows' word
for It.
Another truth is proved by the
answers of these 48,tKX) farmers.
This truth Is that It pays liest to
fertilize uxll. The more generous
applications of fertilizer t)er acre
are proved to produce the greater
returns—through earlier and bigger
and better yl^ds. throqxh yields of
higher gaess value—in the final
figure that counts most—net profit!
Ntdhiii^ But V<C for 16 Years
•‘We have handled V-O fertilizers
continuously and exclusively for 16
years. Sales have lncrea.sed each
year. Many satisfied growers have
lieen using V-O ever since we started
handling it." — Hector Supply Co.,
Dealer, Miami. Flu.

**Like Father, Like Sons”
Many yeart ago the father of four
young ions became one of the’ first
customers of the old Georgia Chem
ical Works, buying his fertiliser
from what is now the V-O sales
offloe in Augusta. Oa. The father
was A. J. McBlmurray, and the
sons-B. W.. J. A., R. L. and J. R.
McBlmurray—ail are grown now,
and have families of their own. and
are respected and successful mem
bers of their communities.
“Our first recollections are of
coming into this office with our
father,” said E. W. McBlmurray re
cently.” Maybe we Just formed the
habit then, but I think it was be
cause the V-O brands were always
good and helped us make money.
Anyhow, we’ve kept coming back
ever since, for the same old brands.
I’ve been using them myself for 38
years and they suit me. My father
used to let me buy them on his
credit, till I got to be 21. My brothers
and I are carrying out the same pro
gram with our families. We were
raised on V-O and it looks like we'U
raise our own on V-O.”
Quality Product Needed
”We have dealt largely with
quantitative production of cotton,
but we need qualitative production.
We must know the right plant food
and its proper application, the
right seed, the proper cultivation.
We have a problem in the quality of
the product.”—Dr. E. O. Brooks,
President, North Carolina College
of Agriculture.
-V-0-
Agrlculturo the Ancient Is turn
ing to wa>’3 that are new to
methodical tmslnoss and big-scale
farming and ma.HS production. And
competition! Management must be
wiser, now, for total yields climb
faster than markets and no man
can say what his products will bring.
Good farming has learned a les
son—it hunts profit in lower costs.
Your successful farmer even adds &.
little to his costs In ,Order-to cut
them! He buys and uses tons of
V-O fertilizer, rich mixed food for
hls growing crops—and produces
pounds or bushels or other units in
greater number per acre and man
hour, thus cutting the cost each
unit must bear. Not only does this
farmer push costs down—he pushes
gross Income up, for he sells at
higher prices the earlier yields and
better yields that V-O fertlllzM
brit^gs. He knows how fb profit!

it’s wise
to choose
a
six!
There It one sure way to get greater
Talue in a low-pric^ car today—
choose a Six!
This greater value Is instantly
obvious when you drive a Chevrolet
Six. You notice first of all its
greater smoothness. There is no
tremor in the steering wheel—no
rattle in the floor boards—-no rumble
or drumming in the body.
In addition to the finer perform
ance of its six-cylinder motor, the
new Chetrolet gives you, ’truly
remarkable economy.
Its six-cylinder smoothness saves
the entire car from the strain and
wear of vibration. This, of course,
lowers the cost of maintenance and
assures a loncer-lastini, lonier-
sqtisfyinn automobile.
From the standpoint of operating
expense, Chevrolet is equally eco
nomical. No other automobile^con
sumes lest gasoline and oil. NobtEer
shows a lower expense for tires.'And
no other car costs less for service.
Because of its modem engineering,
Chevrolet also assures a high re-
. sale value. ,
Chevrolet gives you fullv-enclosed,
weather-proof, 4-wheel brakes; a
modern fuel system—with the
gasoline tank mounted in the rear;
four long seini-elliptic springs,
mounted lengt^hwise in the direc
tion of car travel. It gives you
beautiful Fisher bodies built of
combination hardwood-and-steel.
It gives you a heavy, rigidly-braced
channel-steel frame. And it gives
you a full ball bearing steering
mechanism.
Before you decide on anv car in the
low-price field, see and drive the
Chevrolet Six. The more thor
oughly you investigate, the more
certain you are to conclude that
it*8 wise to choose a Six—for value,
for performance . . . and for eco*
nomical transportation!
