This my son was dead, and Is alive again; he
is foand. (Lake 15:24)
The most famous of all parables, the Prodigal Son, should be
named the Parable of Parenthood. Jesus revealed in it, as could be
dope only by a heart-warming story, tbs dimensions of God’s fath
erhood and the qualities of His fatherliness. He does not forget our
sins with a shrug, saying, “Never mind; it’s nothing.” He does not
erase the hurt, or cancel out the injury, or blot out the guilt. In
stead, He forgives, without taking away an ounce of the enormity of
the sin.
He removes the power of sin over ua—loosens its bold upon us,
releases us from the guilt complex—so that we can find our way
back to fellowship with Him.
Ws do not deserve it, and we cannot hope to understand it; but
like the blessedly good parent He is, our heavenly Father assures us
that seeking forgivenes and fellowship, we belong to His household
of faith. There we can be at home with Him.

In mercy and by grace, God forgives us our sin.
T. Otto NaD (Minnesota)
courteous service rendered by ga
rages and service stations, all
contribute to the pleasure and
convenience of motorists who
stop lb Walterboro.
Tbs climate of the low country
area is considered idsnl. Snow is
rarely seen and each year the
number of days with freezing
temperatures can be counted on
the fingers of one hand. The aver
age mean temperature in January
is 50.5 degrees and for July. 80.3
degrees. The rainfall averages
48.9 inches.
U. S. Highway 15 has its south
ern terminus at Walterboro, while
U. S. 17 Alternate swings in from
the north and takes the southern
flow of traffic off Highway 15.
Then there are three much travel
ed east-west highways that con
nect Walterboro with traffic off
U. S. Highway 21 and Highway
17 into Charleston.
A cavalcade of sports activity
attracts many into Colleton Coun
ty. Fishing Is considered good all
year long and there is a golf
course and other entertaniment
available.
A number of tourists become
attached to Walterboro and re
turn to establish a home for their
retirement or seasonal quarters
here, Warshaw added.
Progress and growth in the city
is reflected in its population in
crease of 56 per cent during
1840-50. A similar Increase took
place in the 1958-60 decade.
In 1850, there were 5,407 per
sons living within the city limits
and the directory listed 1,487 per
sons in Walterboro and the imme
diate adjacent residential areas
The city has a (lower tax rate, a
clear water supply , exceptionally
modern and well kept schools,
hospitals, and churches of all
major denonflaations. •
Walterborb also serves as an
agricultural center. Varieties of
soil and favorable weather con
ditions, plus wise programs of
crop diversification in Colleton
County enable the farmers in that
area to produce valuable crops
every season of the year.
One of the highest paying live
stock markets in the eastern half
of the state is located Just north
of the city. There is an outlet,
through the vast trucking indus
try serving the Eastern seaboard,
for the leading crops—produce,
watermelons, corn, cotton and to
bacco.
South Carolinians, as well as
out of state tourists, should be
attracted to the colorful area at
Walterboro where accommoda
tions and entertaining activities
are plentiful.

Highway Hub” or “City of
Hospitality” are Chandler of
Commerce nicknames for Walter
boro but, to the South Carolinian,
Walterboro Is known better as
the “Heart of the Plantation Low-
Country.”
One driving toward Walterboro
from any direction is likely to
along the highway, fields where
cotton, indigo and rice once grew
and slaves worked beside the
shade of the great moss-clothed
cypress and water oaks
Huge plantation homes, many
having been either restored or
kept in their original architectu
ral design, are located within a
short distance of Walterboro.
Some of these may be visited on
tours arranged at the Walterboro
Chamber of Commerce.
Whether you are a transient, a
prospective resident or a business
visitor to Walterboro, your first
impression of - the city would
probably be a good one, since you
would approach from north or
south along wide four-lane drives
lining both sides of the main
highways leading into Walterboro
are numerous motels, motor
courts and restaurants. These
have proven quite an asset to the
economy, of Walterboro, Colleton
County and South Carolina.
The area is considered one of
the most conveniently located
overnight stopping points on two
popolar highways—U. S. 15 and
17-A—between the northern me
tropolitan areas and Florida.
In summing up the attractive
ness of Walterboro and nearby
area, Bernard Warshaw of Wal

velopment Board, said: "The out

restaurants and the efficient and

Interest Of Increasing Church Attendance.

E. Florida St
Only wise men and hungry children fully
appreciate their blessings 1
Many of God’s gifts, like the sir we breathe,
are received without thought. Others, like the
abundance of the harvest, we think about only
in season. Still others, like our religious herit-
age, get varying degrees of attention and
response according to our spiritual perception
... or the precariousness of our plight.
This isn’t Christinas ... or Easter. And
we hope it is not s time of personal crisis for
Srou and your family...
If It’s just a normal week, full of the routine
of life—then it’s an ideal time to remember
your blessings. And Sunday will be an ideal
day to begin, renew or strengthen that whole
some habit of worshipping God in the church
'' your choice.
