BY REV. CHARLES
DUNN
EZRA TEACHING THE LAW
OF GOD.
Lesson for December 15th.
acquaint ourselves with the Bible
by reading its individual books.
Consider the Psalms. Gladstone
once declared that all the marvels
of Greek civilization piled together
are less impressive than the simple
collection of the Psalms.
Secondly, we can follow the de
velopment of the central ideas of
the Bible. Take its most important
concept, that of God. Here we pass
from the primitive notion of the
Eternal as a glorified man to the
New Testament doctrine of a spir
itual Presence. *•
Then we can stuly the varied
characters of the sacred record. The
Scriptures furnish lis with the fin
est portrait gallery in the world.
Finally, we can enjoy the beauty
spots of the Bible of which there
are sa-paahy. Beginning perhaps
with the Sermon on the Mount, we
can continue with ihe great par
ables of Jesus, and tien pass to the
Psalms, the prophefc visions, and j
other impressive hfehlights.
Why not get your 1936 FORD
in time for Christmas?

It reminds us of the perennial ap
peal of the Holy Scriptures.
This year marks the 400th anni
versary of the first complete print
ed edition of the English Bible. The
appearance of this historic volume
has been aptly called “the most im
portant event in the cultural his
tory of the English-speaking
•world.”
Such a significant milestone can
best be celebrated by a renewal of
our interest in this Book of Life.
Let us read it again with that noble
devotion displayed by Ezra long

subject: “Influenci of Public

<HE 1936 Ford V-8 is the finest Ford
ever built. It goes farther than ever
beyond the accepted standards of its price
class. In engine performance, riding com
fort, roominess—it may be compared with
cars costing hundreds of dollars more.
Today’s Ford is backed by over 2,000,-
000 Ford V-8’s on the road in America
alone. Here are its most outstanding
values—many brand new this year.
V-8 ENGINE PERFORMANCE—smoothness, pick-up
and power with proved V-8 economy.
25% EASIER STEERING—the result of two new
roller-type bearings, a longer steering knuckle-
arm and an increased steering ratio.
SUPER-SAFETY BRAKES—with exceptionally large
braking surface (186 square inches).
EASIER, SYNCHRONIZED SHIFTING — QUIETER GEARS
—Silent, helical gears for all speeds.
NEW FREEDOM FROM NOISE — specially insulated,
welded-steel body, reinforced with steel.
NEW DRAWN-STEEL WHEELS —add comfort to rid
ing—are easier on tires.

Col. Harllee stated that the re

County Agent E. L. Rogers says
that according to the Irish Potato
Act of December 1, 1935, every
fanner who grows Irish Potatoes for
sale in any quantity, no matter how
small, is required to make applica
tion for his sales allotment in or
der that he may sell potatoes tax
free. Application blanks, which
have not yet been received, may be
obtained upon receipt of same from
the County Agent’s Office. There
will be a County Committee and a
State Committee to determine the
allotment for each individual grow
er. This allotment will be based
upon the potato history of the farm
and its operator for the years 1932-
34 .inclusive.
it would be well for all Irish Po
tato growers in the county who ex
pect to sell potatoes next ^ear to
begin getting up their sales his
tory during the base period from
1932 up to December 1, 1935. It is
necessary that substantiating evi
dence of sales be furnished, which
in many cases may require the
grower to produce statements from'
the person to whom he sold during
the period, showing dates of sales
and amounts. All potatoes sold in
excess of the grower’s allotment
will be subject to a tax of three-
fourths cents per pound. As fur
ther details are received, informa
tion will be furnished to McCor
mick County potato growers
through this newspaper and the

jCONSTiPATIOl
A cleansing dose today; a smaller
quantity tomorrow; less each time t
until bowels need no help at all.
Why do people come home from a
hospital with bowels working like a
well-regulated watch?
The answer is simple, and it’s the
answer to all your bowel worries if
you will only realize it: many doctors
and hospitals use a liquid laxative.
If you knew what a doctor knows,
you would use only the liquid form.
A liquid can always be taken in
gradually reduced doses. Reduced
dosage is the secret of any real relief
from constipation.
Ask a doctor about this. Ask your
druggist how very popular liquid
laxatives have become. They give the
right kind of help, and right amount
of help. The liquid laxative generally
used is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin.
It contains senna and cascara — both
natural laxatives that can form no
habit, even in children. So, try Syrup
Pepsin. You just take regulated
doses till Nature restores regularity. *'

FIGHT
TUBERCULOSIS
We rejoice at the glad news that
tuberculosis is preventable and
curable. Our hearts sink though
to find that it is still the most
deadly enemy of our youth.
In South Carolina last year
tuberculosis killed more young peo
ple than all the other communi
cable diseases combined.
It brought sorrow and death into
over 1,000 homes.
Children, friends and neighbors
of hundreds of careless or undiag
nosed cases of tuberculosis are now
in danger.
Christmas Seals support a pro
gram of free clinics^ tuberculin
testing, nursing servic'te and educa
tion for the control qf tuberculosis
in McCormick County.
Mr. J. Fred Buzhardt, McCor
mick County Chairman, is asking
that the money for seals sent
through the mail be sent in by Sat
urday, December 14th. This im
mediate response is necessary to
check up and make follow-up
plans.
