If they could, and would, men could beat their swords into pruning hooks, and their -spears into plowshears and study war no more. The white people here are .not only interested in good churches for Negroes, but they are i interested in good schools. Bell Street school is as good for Negroes as any high school anywhere, and a great deal of the credit is due to the class of white people that live here. I want to pray God’s blessings up on the citizens of Clinton, both white and colored, and may God send His loving kindness and mercy to your sons, your brothers, your husbands, and your loved ones who are in arms for our great country. And may those of us who are still here give to them our support along all lines. They are not able to come back to us at this Christmas season, but let us send them our praters and our good wishes. And may they forget about conflicts and worries and give Jesus room to reign in their hearts at this Christmas season. H. W. WALKER, • Pastor Friendship -Church. Clinton, S.
