International Sunday School Lesson for May 3 ESAU SELLS HIS BIRTHRIGHT Genesis 25:27-34 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. .t, .V t BEWARE OF IMITATIONS i Here is a fine opportunity for character study as you size up those who occupy the stage in this lesson study. Dig out all the facts about Isaac, Rebekah, Esau and Jacob and you will note what a mess can envelop in what should be a well regulated family. These boys v/ere twins but they do not manifest the usual interest that such brothers have in each other. Both the father and mother had their favo»ites and this added much to the home difficulties. Rebekah thought more of Jacob and Isaac doted on Esau, the first born. v As the first born, Esau would normally come into his father's place as the priestly head in the home and would inherit a double portion. Much trouble is occasioned today when a will is made in which the childien do not “share and share alike,” to use a familiar phrase. But Esau did not look forward to the honor of succeeding his father as head cf the family, while that was the very thing that Jacob was eager for, and plcttea accordingly. Ecau was a hunter and came heme one day with no bag but with a tremendous hunger. Jacob was making some lentil stew and Esau pointed to it and begged for some of “that red.” Wiley Jacob would not chare his food until he had exacted a promise to turn over the birthright privileges. Later a trick w^as played on almost blind Isaac, when he would bless Esau, as Jacob concocted a stew that would taste like venison, put fur cn his hands to make them feci like hairy Esau and obtained the blessing. This caused a break between the brothers and Jacob, with the connivance of his mother had to flee from the v/rath of Esau. They did not meet again for twenty years. m A'. ja: t*' \yi f T SEE ■ -s AN EtEIIMV DRUG STOKE ■ »■■■ ■!■»■■■ ——■I IH ■'■■■■■ .1 ——I I I — We make a specialty of studying the needs and requirements of our customers and if we fail to have what one wants the first time, we will have • it within a very short while.

THE FAMILY DOCTOR JOHN JOSEPH GAINES, M.D. ABOUT SCHOOL CHILDREN PAT TOUR BIllS UITII CHECKS AND UE Parents ara very rightly anxious about their youngsters going to school, lest they should pick up infection peculiar to child-lifa, such as measles, mumps, chicken-pox, or the more serious throat infections, scarlet fever, diptheria, and the like. We physicians dislike to ccme in contact with these enemies of children, I assure you. The perfectly healthy child has a strong, active immunity frem contagion. I remember in my early life, coming in contact with many cases of measles, and escaped any infection completely. I was a very healthy urchin. Never had mumps, though exposed frequently. My chicken-pox and measles both came when I was past 21 years ol age, when I was “run-down” from overwork. Both made me very ill. Seldom do germs attack unless the victim is debilitated from some cause or other. If your little fellows are robust, fond of outdoor life, keenly alert for the great outdoors, you are fortunate indeed. Particularly you should watch the little noses and throats. The child with chronic “snuffles” needs attention. The dentist and the family doctor are your faithful allies, while you are growing the chief American crop—boys and girls. Keep them dressed safely rather than fashionably. These children are not dolls; they are young humans. I pity the mother who sacrifices the little girl’s health just to make her look like a fairy. Watch your child’s complexion—it should be perfect. Any hint of pallor, jaundice, circles under the eyes, or general feebleness and inac tivity, should send you to the family doctor post-haste. Again let me say, a vigorous, healthy boy or girl is stoutly fortified against infections common to school life. Every cancelled check is a def inite receipt and eliminates the possibility of your having to pay any bill twice. It is not only a safe way to pay, but is much more businesslike. There is a definite prestige acquired in writing a cheek. Think this over, and make un J i your mind to do business in a bus inesslike manner. i.\ TOMORROW CHURCH - !

T. SATCHER. Pastor. -t XT- McCormick Methodisi Church Schedule THE PEOPLES BANK McCORMICK, S. C. It is sometimes my sad fortune to have to deliver an after dinner rpeech. Few experiences are more depressing. One sits up at a high table like a specimen at the zoo. One waits with increasing discomfort while the toastmaster works slowly down the line, and tries to look appreciative as the other speakers unfold their solutions of world problems with a sprinkling of stale jests. Only now and then there is a bit of compensation. The other night, for instance, I found myself beside Strickland Gilliland. He ate [sparingly, and when I remarked on it, he said: ‘T always have to feel well tomorrow. If you live today so that you will feel all right to morrow you don’t get into much trouble.” That made me think that you can estimate men according to their ; attitude toward tomorrow. How many tomorrows can they see? How much are they willing to sacrifice for tomorrow? How much do they dare to trust? A day laborer can see only a half-dozen tomorrows. He must be paid every week. An entrepreneur may cheerfully invest half a life time in a new business from which not he but his children will profit. Artists and writers have been known to disregard entirely ;he near tomorrows, pinning their faith on the fairer and more enduring verdict of posterity. The prophet, cf course, looks farthest of all. Stephen, on his way to death, cried: “Behold I see the heavens opened.” Jesus, about to be crucified, assured Kis disciples: “I have overcome the world.” It strikes me that what we need these days is the habit cf taking a little longer look, envisaging a few more tomorrows. Some of us act as if this present distress were the first test of the world’s endurance that has ever come. We are afraid that if it is not straightened out immediately civilization will perish. It is not so much a test of the world, or of civilization, as it is a test cf us. It is like the war. Some of us lost courage, and said: “It will never end,” and took thought only of ourselves. Others can now look back with satisfaction on the record they made then. Today we are making another record on which we must look back. Back from some future and better tomorrow.
