S. STROM Main Street * McCortnick, S. C. Ly Krv. Clinrios E. DisrexL JESUS SETS NEW STANDARD OF LIVING Lesson for April 30th. Mark 10:1-31. Golden Text: Luke 6:31 The lesson begins with the final departure of Jesus from Galilee. Heading southward. He visits Perea, east of Judea and the Jordan. His face is turned toward Jeru salem, the capitol, which He approaches via Jericho. Three incidents, each very different, are depicted for us by Mark in the lesson narrative. The first brings the carping Pharisees before us in an endeavor to entrap the Master by a question concerning divorce. Jesus replies, not by attempting to expound the scribal law, which the Pharisees knew only too well, but by a straight-forward dec laration of the Mosaic principles. Marriage, He insists, is a permanent union of two lives. The second episode makes the child again the center of the circle, as was the case in the last lesson. The fondness of the Master for children on/ce more is emphasized. We can see Him rebuke the disciples for their interference, and can fully appreciate the loving tenderness of His im mortal welcome, “Let the little children come to me: do not hinder them; for to those who are childlike the Kingdom of God belongs.” The last event is the absorbing story of the rich youn§ r . ruler. Here is an attractive youth with many fine quali ties. With his wealth, education, social position, and high character,, he majtes a strong appeal to our imagination. No wonder Jesus loved him. • For here is a possible recruit who can render very great service in the promotion of God’s realm. How willing he seems. He runs and kneels, humbly seeking guide-posts directing the eager pilgrim toward the Life of the Ages. But one thing was lacking, as Jesus, with His searching power of analysis, points out. The young man had far more wealth than was good for him. Instead of owning posses sions, possessions owned him. His property prevented service, and therefore Jesus advises its sales. But, alas, the youth cannot accept so drastic a recommendation. So the young man departed. • • Writes of ^TH Fashion Decrees High Collars in Burma Some of the last of the giraffe-necked women of Burma have come to America to show us their styles in neckwear . . . via the circus route.

Start Enlisting Forestry Corps COLUMBIA, April 24.—Enlist ment of South Carolina’s first quota for the civilian conservation corps will begin this week, state re lief leaders decided here yesterday in conference with Maj. G. R. F. Cornish, state recruiting officer. Three concentration points were decided upon—Charleston, Colum bia and Spartanburg. Enlishment will begin in the Charleston dis trict probably Thursday and last until about the first of May." Ten tative dates for the Columbia dis trict are May 3 to 8 and Spartan burg May 8 to 11. The state’s first quota will be approximately 1,346. The remain der of the total of 3,500 alloted the state will be enlisted later. Of the first quota, approximately 500 will come from the counties in the Charleston disrtict, approxi mately 500 from the Columbia dis trict and 400 from the Spartan burg district. The first 846 enlisted in the state will go to Fort Moultrie, Charles ton, for the two weeks condition ing period under present plans.] The others of the first quota prob ably will be conditioned at Fort Bragg, N. C. Enrollment will be in the county seats by the county relief coun cils. Representatives of the relief council will turn the young men over to the recruiting officers at the concentration points. Richland’s quota is 270. Spar tanburg has the largest quota, a few more.than Richland. The recruiting will come from names already on the relief coun cil lists unless unforseen circum stances arise. Young men between 18 and 25 years of age are eligible. They will receive $30 a month and sus tenance and will be employed in forestation work under President Roosevelt’s conservation program. Part of the 1 money they receive must be assigned to dependents. Just where those enlisted from South Carolina will be employed after the conditioning period has not been decided, officials said. Attending the conference were Alan Johnstone, state relief direc tor, other officials and field repre sentatives of the relief council and Major Cornish. A “MANY-SIDED” MAN ' r- - . ■ Jesus was, as we say, “many sided,” and every man sees the side of his nature which appeals most to himself. ’ The doctor thinks of the great physician whose touch never failed, who by some mystery preceded modem sci ence in its still imperfect knowledge of the relation of the spirit to health. The preacher studies the.Sermon on the Mount and marvels that truths so profotfiid should he ex pressed in words so clear and simple. The agitator remem bers only that he denounced the rich; and the communist that his disciples carried a common purse. Lawyers have written in praise of his pleading at his trial; and the liter ary critics of every age have cheerfully acknowledged his mastery. I am not a doctor, or lawyer or critic but an advertis ing man. As a profession advertising is young; as a force it is as old as the world. The first four words ever uttered, “Let there be light,” constitute its charter. All Nature is vibrant with its impulse. The brilliant plumage of the bird is color advertising addressed to the emotions of its mate. Plants deck themselves with blossoms, not for beauty only, but to attract the patronage of the bee and so by spreading pollen on its wings, to insure the perpetuation of their kind. i ' The spacious firmament on high. And all the blue ethereal sky. And spangled Heavens a shining frame. Their great Original proclaim. It has been remarked that “no astronomer can be an atheist,” which is only another way of saying that, no man can look up at the first and greatest electric sign—the ev ening stars and refuse to believe its message: “There is a Cause: A God.” I propose in the next few articles to speak of the advertisements of Jesus which have survived for twenty centuries and are still the most potent influence in the world. Let us begin by asking why he was so successful in mastering public attention and why, in contrast, his church es are less so? The answer is twofold. In the first place he recognized the basic principles that all good advertising is news. He was never trite or commonplace; he had no routine. If there had been newspapers in those days, no city editor could have said, “No need to visit him today; he will be doing just what he did last Sunday.” Reporters^ would have followed him every single hour, for it was un- ^ possible tri predict what he would say or do; every action ^ 7 and word were news. I repeat. Jesus had 90 routine. He was neWr trite or commonplace. / A News Maker . . . Copyrieht, Bobbs-MeMll
