Mention was made last week by

$207,000 appropriation as recom

committee Since then a news report
states that the senate reinstated the
cut item to bring the appropriation
back to its original figure.
In speaking of the constabulary:
•>ystem, The Chronicle raised a ques-
l on as to whether it is so essential
as governors proclaim from year to
year. We stated that the constobu-
liry idea came into existence back
when Benjamin Tillman was gover
nor and was created in an effort to
enforce the dispensary law which
was noted for its endless scandals,
demoralization and politioal corrup
tion. And the point was made that
with good roads everywhere, closely
connected cities, towns and rural
areas, and with sheriffs and deputies
in every courtly, is it still necessary
to maintain an expensive state sys
tem to do the bidding of the gover
nor, whether it^be law enforcement
assignments or political activity dur
ing election years. The Chronicle
sees no real need for such a large
force and believes that it often
slows down county officers in doing
their duty. It is mighty easy to “pass
the buck,” to say when a difficult or
educated person than most college
and university graduates. This by
simply using his leisure time of five
or six hours a day.
15 Q. What is the Work of the
Holy Spirit in our lives? B. W.
15 A. Before Regeneration we can
do nothing intrinsically and wholly
good and acceptable to God. The
Holy Spirit warns and convicts us
of sin and encourages us to seek sal
vation—a way out. He regenerates
us, John 3:5&8b. From then, He helps
us do everything that is acceptable
to God; enables us to Repent truly;
works saving faith in us; helps us
in Sanctification, putting off the old
and putting on the new; takes the
things ot Christ and shows thme to
us; brings to our remembrance; wit
nesses with our spirits that we are
children of God, Rom. 8:16 (“itself”
should be “himself”). He woos us
to Christ, is the Spirit of adoption,
Rom. 8:15. He indites oura petitions,
helps us to pray acceptably. Read
Rom. 8:1-27 and see, He is named 19
times in those verses. Mentioned 4
times in Christ’s Farewell Discourse,
John 14,16,16. The name “Paraclete"
used by Jesus is translated “Com
forter” in our versions, “Helper,”
