V TH* CUMTOM CnOMICU MountviDe New* MBS. MAUDE BBTSON uto me, Mytac, I have 1 tore; (Jeremiah 31:S). A young man in his first job was sent by his firm to work in a town far away from home. He lived in comfortable lodgings, but j every week his mother sent him a parcel of cakes. When he went home for his first vacation, he said, “Mother, you shouldn’t do it. You have enough on your hands with father and the rest of the family to look after. All this that you’re doing for me is too much!" “Too much?" his mother replied. ‘My son, think how much more 1 could do for you if you lived nearer." Do not these words carry to our hearts the plea of Oirist Himself? Does He not say to everyone of us, “Child, how much more I could do for you if only you lived nearer to Me?" Guests of Dr. Ruth Stokes on Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Mullins of Decatur, Ga., Mr. and Mrs. Wm. B. Stokes and children, Courtney and Marie, of : Society Hill, and Mrs. S. J. Tencak of Cheraw.

Im mediately the question is raised whether any man who so neglects his duty is fit to be president Moreover, if the president sur rounds himself with men who peddle influence or who have dark personal vices,- he sets an example for the government. If corruption is tolerated and pro tected at the top of government, it is only a matter of time before It spreads, like cancer, through out the entire governmental structure. ican people should think long and hard about the deteriorating moral climate in this country and the causes for it. They should be concerned, first of all, that the presidency is free of any stain or question of neglect of duty. This issue—the issue of the moral character of the American government — transcends any matter of personal popularity, economic programs, or what ever. If the American govern ment is not a clean government. the United States cannot survive. And if there is moral uncleanli ness in Washington today, then the U. S. electorate should exer cise its right to restore decency before it is too late. Public Records MARRIAGE LICENSES ISSUED Willie Herbert Bennett and Bur- the Mae Cunningham of Water- i -o loo.

THE MORALS ISSUE By THURMAN SENSING Executive Vice Historians, surveying the na tions of the past, time and again have trheed the downfall of great state* to a decline in moral val ues. Nations can lose the battle field and suffer poverty on the home front, but from such set backs recovery usually is pos sible. On the other hand, when a country falls under a govern ment that is morally corrupt, there is no hope of salvation un less that government is promptly discarded. The classical case is the his tory of the Roman Republic In its day, Rome was the strongest nation on earth. Like the United States in our own time, Rome had far-flung military commit ments. It had a great system of law, and Roman citizenship was prized throughout' the ancient world. The Roman republic should have endured for many centuries, but its fate was to be cut down not long after the open ing of the Christian era. The reason for Rome’s decline and fail was moral corrupion. It suffered defeat within its own government. Ambitious men, with a thirst for personal power, brought the lowest types of Ro mans into the government of the empire There was corruption in volving thievery, and there was corruption involving influence peddling. Ancient Rome had its Bobby Bakers, to be sure. But the darkest stains on the Roman nation came when men of ugly personal vices gained places of power near the summit of the Roman government. These ugly vices were overlooked or con cealed from the Roman people. Men with deeply corrupt moral characters occupied the seats of power or served as the principal advisers and lieutenants to the leaders charged with defending the interests of Rome. Because they were corrupt, they were more concerned with their pleas ures and their vices than they were with the security of the Ro man republic. Ultimately, the barbarians overran Rome where liberty had been nurtured and the Senate had been the glo ry of republican government in the ancient worid. What happened to Rome should have special meaning for Americanr as they pointer foe moral mess in Washington JOANNA ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH Mm F. 10:00 A. M., 11:00 A. M.. ship. 7:00 P. ■hip.

The United States of America could suffer its own de cline and fall if man of ugly vices are not rooted out of gov ernment and if the people do not dismiss those who have tolerated corrupt men. The pages of history, contem porary as well as ancinet, clear ly show that the enemies of freedom are skilled at preying on corrupt men who are vulnerable to blackmail. The ■ Soviets, for example, frequently use their hold over corrupt men in free lands to force them to reveal defense secrets. Everyone who occupies a poet of high responsibility in foe U. 8. government should know that he has a solemn obligation not to employ a person who is a poten tial security risk because of his personal peculiarities. A high government official cannot afford to show excessive toleration for some psychologi cally weak individual, for the government is charged with the duty of defending the public in terests which transcend the con cern for individuals. No maw in government should be more aware of this truth than tea President of the United* States. For a president to neglect Mo duty to maintain regulv 10:00 A. M., 11:00 A. M., ship. 0:48 P.

It is so easy to get acquainted with one’s neighbors. The first date naturally called for careful strategy. You don’t want to seem too eager — but you want to know what she likes ... and what she’s like. Erie’s and Mildred’s first date waa a Youth Fellowship supper at the church. Eric happens to be a leader of this group. And Mildred happens to be an earnest Christian girl Of course, happens is a very broad word. It means that Eric’s and Mildred’s parents had once decided that a son or a daughter ought to be given the advantage of religious training. Now Eric and Mildred are engaged. And everybody says they were meant for each other. And the altar before which they take their vows will be the heart of the religious life of their family.
