MAIN STREET McCORMICK. S. C. International Sunday School Lesson for November 1 WORLD’S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY Galatians 5:13-26 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. Specal interest will center in a discussion of organized liquor traffic for this World’s Temperance Sunday. The date is fixed to occur on the Sunday preceding the usual election day in the United States. Plenty of up to date facts will be found in the newspapers. Two books are suggested for special research. They are PROHIBITION AT ITS WORST by Prof. living Fisher, and PROHIBITION AND COMMON SENSE. “Galatians,” from which the lesson text is taken, comes naturally be fore us as it is one of the letters written by Paul from Corinth during his third missionary journey. It is always interesting to note how th Bible, written so long ago, meets the issues in every-day living at the present time. The biggest argument put forth by those who want i sell .alcohol, which is always to be labeled POISON, is that of personal liberty. Paul writes here about “freedom,” but makes the distinction between using it as “an occasion of the flesh” or “through love, be serv ants of one another.” Christianity teaches that we are to give up our individual rights that we may be of real help to humanity. Wickednesses are listed under “lust of the flesh” and it is the use of liquor which dulls mental activity that aggravates all the sins that are named. In marked contrast the “fruit of the Spirit” is pictured. Almost unbelievable progress has been made in temperance reform during the past twenty years. The Eighteenth Amendment is enforced to at least 60 per cent and 80 per cent enforcement of any law is very good. When those who call themselves Christian demand better en forcement It will come. Preaching services at St. Stephens Episcopal Church, Willington, are as follows: Every 1st, 3rd and 5th Sunday at 4 o’clock p. m. REV. A. R. STUART, Minister.

This pure vegetable preparation brings quick comfort, and can never harm. It is the sensible thing when children are ailing. Whether it’s the stomach, or the little bowels; colic or constipation; or diarrhea. When tiny tongues are coated, or the breath is bad. Whenever there’s need of gentle regulation. Chil dren love the taste of Castoria, and its mildness makes it safe for frequent use. And a more liberal dose of Castoria is always better for growing children than strong medicine meant only for V- THE FAMILY .DOCTOR JOHN J05EPH.GAJNES, M.D. ADVEOTBIMNTING This office is well supplied with the very best equipment to produce tasty and appropriate ad vertising and commercial printing for every line of business in its field. We receive every month a fresh and new sup ply of illustrations for every thing that could he desired by the most scrupulous business man. If you want a picture on your letterhead or other piece of commercial printing, select it, and we make it right here in the office and print it just as you direct. You choose it and lay out your design and it is done as you direct. The same is true as to advertising. You chpose the pictures you like best, we help pre pare your copy if you wish and then your ady. is run according to your directions. The pic tures are new and up-to-date and so is the copy. If you prefer writing the copy yourself, you can do that and use pictures along with it, or you are welcome to use any suggestions you may get from the copy, either with or without the illus trations. MORE EVIDENCE A very old adage has it, “Fools make feasts; wise men eat them.” But we are living in a different age; I don’t call anybody a fool because he spreads a feast—if he can afford it; the very much bigger fool is the fellow that gorges himself at the feast! Last evening, (much against my better judgment), I accepted an in vitation to dine at 6 o’clock with a professional brother—our wives were in attendance. The cares of the day were past and gone; it was the time for recreation that is so essential to the brain worker. Ev ery one in the happy group, except myself, adored the six o’clock din ner, and indulged in it'at every opportunity. To say that this was a fine, sumptuous meal, does not half describe the setting. It was a triumph of culinary skill—the quantity was lim ited to capacity only. Incidentally, one of the physicians present said he was a little tick lish about coffee—he had a blood-pressure of something over 200, and was a bit apprehensive about it; he was only sixty, and looked forty- five. Yet, he was being seriously threatened. My wife and I went to the party in a neighbor physician’s car. As we came home at 10:30 p. m., the doctor said to me, “I’ve had to be a little guarded here lately; Mrs. C and I are both developing high blood-pressures.” Just one thing, dear reader: THE SIX O’CLOCK DINNER. Protein poisoning, from the absorption of excessive amounts of undigested food. A heavy meal, partaken of when the mind and body were tired and needed rest. REST. Stomachs compelled to work when relaxed and weakened from mental and physical tire. Such a meal for BREAKFAST would have done no harm! The di gestive organs rested from seven or eight hours of refreshing sleep. But, after this fine, sumptuous, six-o’clock dinner, every guest awaken ed next morning with little or no appetite, feeling heavy, mentally foggy, lack of vim and energy for the new day’s work. When shall we wise up? There’s no extra charge for the use of the copy or illustrations, so feel free to make use of them. Neither is there any extra charge for the advertising or job printing. It is an added feature to our service. Use it for your benefit and convenience. M McCORMICK, S. C. SEND THE MESSENGER TOUR NEXT ORDER FOR JOB PRINTING.

There was none of the thrill that usually comes with heading toward America, none of the joy of coming home. For a couple of days I was depressed. Everything I cared for was behind me; I was sailing into silence. Then one day the wireless spoke. “Have arranged the following appointments for you.” my partner wired. “Tuesday after your arrival, Baltimore. Wednesday, Pittsburgh; Thursday. Friday, Chicago. Best wishes. Please confirm.” Immediately came a feeling of relief and cheer. “I have work to go back to,” I exclaimed. “Duties are waiting to keep me alert and a little worried and on my toes.” I was relating the incident to the chairman of the board of £t large corporation. “I know just how you felt,” he said. “I’ve organized our company so well that I’ve almost organized myself out of a job. But every now and then a really big problem comes along, and the boys have to send for me. A hurry call came to my home from Chicago last Sunday, and I had to leave on an hour’s notice. My wife thought it was a hardship, and of course I let her believe that we men lead terrible lives. But all the way out on the train my spirit was singing: ‘Somebody wants me, I have work to do.’ ” Joseph Medill was asked: “What is the greatest pleasure of your life?” “To feel that I am at play when I am at work,” he answered. The book of Genesis presents work as a curse inflicted on humanity for its sins. We know in these times of unemployment how faulty that conception is. To wake up in the morning and wonder: “Where shall I go today? What shall I do?” That is the curse. America’s most important problem is not education, not the govern ment regulation of business, not even prohibition. Our real task is to work out some economic system by which we can provide honest jobs for all the people all the time. Every man and woman is entitled to the glorious self-respect which comes from being flble to say: “Thank God, I have a place. I am needed.” / ASBURY—Sunday School every Sunday at 10:00 a. m.; Epworth League every Sunday at 7:00 p. m.
