Rev. ROBERT H. HARPER
A TIME FOR PRAYER
W E BOYS at school had a
game called “foot and a
half ” No paraphernalia was need
ed except a makeshift spring
board, and the objective was to
spring over the boy who was
"down” a certain distance away, at
.a point which the “setter” called
If the setter could not make the
leap, he had to go down himself
jthat is if some other boy made
it. But if the setter called it
'“one and over” and no one chal
lenged it, the one and over
stood, and the setter and the
others would jump as far as the>
could and then from the place
where they landed would leap
over the down.
At least that is the way 1
remember it. Of an incident I
.am sure. The spot where many
boys’ feet had landed had been
gouged out in the soft earth
a little depression, and when
one of the “big boys” landed he
fell over with a broken ankle
and as he tried to crawl away I
could see one foot dragging help
lessly. And one of the smallei
boys said to me afterward
"Henry, did you notice how when
a fellow gets in great trouble he
calls upon God? When Roy tried
to crawl away, he said, “O God.’
Years afterward, when the for
tunes of life brought Roy and
me to live in the same city, I re
called to him the mishap of his
boyhood. Soon afterward, he as
an official of one of our banks
asked to make the opening prayet
at a bankers’ convention to be
held in the city. Later he told me
that he had thought of telling of
the incident 1 have related when
he presented me. But he seemed
to think it might not have been
the thing to do to remind the men
that they needed prayer. But I
assu -d him that it would have
been a fitting thing.
FEBRUARY
E VER since the day Pharaoh
said to Jacob, “How old art
thou?” and perhaps from ages be
fore that, people have been inter
ested in the age of persons around
them. The ladies are not cordial to
.questions about age and seek to
.fortify themselves by the drug
store or the cosmetics counter.
. Here a suggestion—if you were .
born on February 29, you can say
jfor exapiple that you have just
celebrated your twentieth birth
day, which might be the truth, yet
.. cause, a lifting of the eyebrows.
But February can lay claim to
fame because it has given several
great men to the world, George
Washington, the Father of our
Country, and Abraham Lincoln the ,
Great Emancipator, and includes
Valentine’s Day. Let us not forget
that on Valentine’s Day the young
people have the opportunity of
shyly expressing their affection for
a loved one.
We had a rich boy in our class
who bought the most beautiful and
expensive valentine he could find
and sent it to the lassie of his
choice and wrote on it, “With the
compliments of John Doe.” Of
course John Doe was not his name
—he wrote his real name. We boys
joked about the boy. But I am not
so sure. It is natural to show an
expression of love.

re-election to the office of New

Witnesses At
Sumter Meet
A three-day assembly of Je
hovah’s Witnesses from 17 South
Carolina cities, the past weekend
in Sumter, was attended by five
members of the Newberry Mis
sionary Group.
Local delegates heard a Watch-
tower district supervisor, Willie
Anderson, speak Sunday to 628
persons on the subject, “Facing up
to the Urgency of Our Times.”
Aciording to Georgia LeVere,
spokesman for the Newberry
broup. Anderson told his audience
that Aporalyptic plagues are af
fecting earth’s waters and the
atmosphere.
“These plagues,” he said, “are
manifest in the pressure of wide
spread immorality, pressure of
materialism, increasing national
disturbances, fear of nuclear war
and the approach of Jehovah’s
war.”
To face up to this urgency, An
derson recommended “resisting
these pressures God’s way, using
His Word, the Bible as a guide.”
LeVere said that 711 persons
attended the two-hour color film
shown Saturday night. “We plan
to inform our neighbors here
about the important things we
learned from this film, including
history and prophecy about an an
cient city now lying in ruins, but
which is still affecting the lives
of nearly all peoples of earth.”
Seventeen ministers were or
dained Saturday afternoon at the
assembly site, Lincoln High
School.
