GALLANT-6ELK COMPANY a •ik. sd —... al HOME OF BETTER VALUES GREENWOOD, S. C. f 4 Prayer For A Spiritual Revival (By Rev. L. K. Simpson) Last week we wrote briefly on “Some Conditions For a Spiritual Revival” as given in 2 Chronicles 7:14. One of these conditions is prayer. Great spiritual revivals are born in prayer. Conditions in the world today are such as to cause great concern, not only to those who believe in God, but to all people everywhere. Crime, lawlessness, immorality—these are ever on the increase. Our stand ard of morals becomes lower with each passing day. High and noble ideals are being undermined and threatened by ideals that are low and unworthy. Then when three- fourths of the world is at war, when the liberty of mankind is threatened, when certain princi ples and rights which preceding generations secured for their suc cessors at great sacrifice are being destroyed, when these and many other similar conditions prevail in the earth, is it not a time for the people of God to humble them selves in prayer? There is neglect and indifference and coldness and passion for souls. Surely there is need of a revival among the peo ple of God. In the 85th Psalm is recorded a brief prayer of the Psalmist. It is deeply significant and full of meaning. David is praying out of his soul for a spiritual revival, that God will have mercy upon the nation and turn the people from their ways of &in. “Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease. Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations? Wilt thou not quicken (revive) us again. That thy people may rejoice in thee? Show us thy loving kindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation.” Psalm 85:4-7. Habakkuk prayed (3:2) “O Jeho vah, revive thy work in the midst of the years; In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath remember mercy.” When God’s people pray this prayer out of sincere hearts a re vival will come. When the mem bers of a given church pray this prayer in the right spirit a revival will come to that church and com munity. Surely those who have named the name of Christ should give themselves much to prayer at a throne of grace for a real spiritual awakening, do, a revival will confe. Again, may I, as pastor, ask for the prayers of all Christian people for the special series of revival services planned to begin at the McCormick Baptist Church on the second Sunday in August with services each day at ten o’clock a. m. and at eight o’clock p. m. Please remember these services in your daily devotions. The Mc Cormick Baptist Church extends a most cordial invitation io every one who can to attend all of its services, the regular ones as well as the special ones. A warm wel come is extended to one and all. REBUILT POWER UNITS For saw mills and grist mills. At monky saving prices —installed for you —ready to operate. Georgia Truck & Eqp.

Wheii^ -xx How To Use Cotton Stamps In a recently written news story about cotton stamps Miss Matilda Bell, Home Demonstration Agent, urged each farm family to have a ‘get-together-conference” on plan ning how to spend the stamps wisely. Now with plan in hand, or certainly well in mind, the family will be ready to start shopping for the planned articles as soon as the stamps arrive. Read all labels carefully and ask the merchant for definite facts about fabric quality, says Miss Bell, in giving some pointers sug sin on the part of many church : gested by Miss Elizabeth Watson, members. Many of them have lost Extension Clothing Specialist, the spirit of prayer, have lost the I Does the label say color fast and preshrunk. It should further- state that the fabric is colorfast to sun, washing and perspiration if the label is to be of definite help to you. “Vat dyes” indicate completely fast colors. If the label says “pre-shrunk”, the fabric may shrink still more so you should insist on a label that states: “guaranteed not to shrink more than one per cent” if you want satisfactorily shrunk material. It is important to observe the amount of sizing (sometimes call ed loading or filling) in cotton fabrics, for sometimes new ma terial looks very substantial, due to this starch filling, but will bo very sleazy and loosely woven af ter the first washing. There is a permanent starchiest finish that is used now on somo of the better quality thin muslins or dimities. This insures crisp fresh frocks for summer after noons or for children’s best dresses without extra work for the one who has to launder them. h« s The worst criticism of cotton materials for dresses formerly was that of excessive wrinkling. There is a new crease-resistant finish now that is very satisfactory and that will last through countless washings. Besides lessening the wrinkles, this finish helps the fabric to keep its shape better and also to stay clean longer. Thus a sheer voile that is sanforized shrunk and crease-resistant will look as filmy as chiffon, yet cost about one-third as much originally and will look the same after wash ing. Whatever your need versatile cotton is likely to be the answer, but “stop, look and listen” to the quality before buying. xx Notice There will be a meeting of the Old Age Pension Association, at the McCormick court house, Sat urday afternoon at 3 o’clock. All members are urged to come and bring some one with you. Maggie Young, Secretary. Card Of Thanks The Moragne family wish to ex press their gratitude for the un tiring efforts and the many kind nesses shown them by friends in their recent great sorrow.
