Patronize Home Enterprise.
Recently we have received state
ments from local business men
some printed out of town and oth
ers stamped with a rubber stamp
We don't blame the rubber stamj
man so much; if that's his style
let him have it. But we cannot un
derstand how a merchant in thii
town can send elsewhere to have i
little simple job of printing dom
when we can d<> it just as well o
bett?r, just as cheap or cheaper
right her; at home. We have estab
lished a irinting plaftt here costinj
five or six thousand dollars, wliicl
gives employment to five men. Ou:
pay-roll is about fifty dollars a week
practically all of which is spent ii
Kingstree. We pay taxes on oui
printing plant and a little home be
sides. Bat the strongest claim w<
can advai ce is the persistent worl
we have done, year in, year out, foi
I
a dozen years, never stopping or tir
ing, helping to build up our town
devoting columns and pages to it
up-building and fostering fcvery en
terprise ever established or ever
projected here. We ask in all fair
ness, what has any out-of-towr
printing concern ever done to lielp
build up Kingstree?
.Moreover, the very men who semi
their work out of town?some ol
them?are constantly urging us t<
impress on our readers the necessity
of patronizing home enterprise
Where is their consistency?
We feel a natural delicacy in re
ferring to these matters, but wher
such striking instances of inconsistency
and lack of community interest
come home to us, we would dc
ourself, and the town as well, an
injustice to let them pass unheeded
When a dollar goes away from town
for anything that can l?e bough i
here, just that amount goes out o:
local circulation forever. Did yov
ever think of that? It would pa\
in the long run to patronize hoim
dealers even at a little highei
I price, but we do not ask that.
All we ask is a square deal?a
chance to figure with the out-oft
.. town fellow.
We are satisfied that our friend?
dothe-e things mainly from thought.
lessness, but surelv it -is time t<? do
' 1
some thinking along the line -uggested.
If we ever expect our town
, . i
to amount toanytning let u^patroii.
ize l.ome enterprise ami keep the
dollar- at home.

The Lone Star State, as usual, reports
the first hale of new cotton,
but Lake City claims the honor of
the first cotton bloom.
We take pleasure in adding to
j our exchange li -t the Pee Dee
News & Herald of Marion, ed'
ited and published by Dr W S
. Stokes, who is also editor of the
Lake City News. Being mindful
1 of the trying experience of keep>
ing one paper going this hot
^ weather, we sympathize with Editor
i Stokes in his effort to look after
"twins," with the inevitable squalls
( and other unpleasant phenomena
attendant thereon. A strenuous
undertaking, to put it mildly, he
i has entered upon.
i Williamsburg's Banks.
A glance at the quarterly state*
it-- * i 1 ?nr:ii:.ran
? menu 01 uie iour uuiins ui n imamoburg
county,which we publish today,
? does not by any means indicate havl
times. The three local banks have a
combined deposit account of nearly
$350,000, of which amount about
$190,000 is savings deposits. One
> bank alone, it will be noted, carries
. over $J 12,000 in its savings department.
For the county the total combin
ed deposits foot up something like
$370,000, of which large amount
. more than $200,000 represents savings
deposits.
All of which leads to the conclu
sion that the people of old Williams,
burg are far from "broke" yet, and
. the cry of "hard times" is louder
than is justified by actual conditions.
We may add that our county can
1 boast of four well-managed and
' flourishing banking institutions, any
- of which, we believe, is entirely
? worthy of confidence. It is gratil
fying indeed to see them all basking
in the golden sun-light of prosperity.

THE FALL OF SAMARIA {
II Kings 17:1-18?June 18
"Be that being often reproved hnrdeneth Hie
neck ihall suddenly be destroyed, and that
iclthout remedy." ?Proverbs 19:1.
n OS HE A, Ring or Israeu the
central personage of this study.
Is paid the rather doubiiul
compliment of being less evil
tn the Lord's sight than some of his
predecessors. Gradually the Assyrian
i kingdom bad extended its controi to
Israel, and Hosbea maintained bis
throne by paying tribute.
This continued for several years un
til the King of Israel thought himself !
anfflelpntlv In leflorue with the Ectvd :
tians on the south to refuse further .
tribute money. In
consequence, the t
Assyrian army 39Bm2/
advanced and EggfiNr
j laid siege to the marla.
It seems
deed, to learn y^jBk^^laV
that the city with- &
stood the siege 7
! for three year*. 1- 33&?4^^
The end came In ^ ?3k? A
' the ninth year of
Hoshea. and slg- C tatml\lZ? ^
nlfied the end of
, the ten-tribe kingdom, the people being
transported by their captors several
! hundred miles to another portion of
, the Assyrian empire.
The overthrow of Israel, recounted
j In this study, we are directly told, was
i a Judgment from the Lord "Tbere'
fore the Lord waa very angry with
' Israel and removed them oat of His
i sight; there were none left bat the
| tribe of Judeb only."
Bin tends to national destruction In
a very natural way?by sapping the
| vitals of the people of the nation. Bat
: In Israel's case there was something
; more than this. God entered into a
special Covenant with that nation by
which He bound Himself and they
bound themselves.
Israel agreed to be God's people, to
i serve and obey Him faithfully; and
God agreed that, if they would do so.
| He would specially favor them and
look out for their interests, the'r
flocks, their herds, their health, thtfr j
prosperity; all were to be blessed s >
long ns they were loyal and true. O i!
the contrary, God specially pledgod
Hbnself that If they as a people prov-1
ed unfaithful to the Covenant, He i
would specially chastise them, punish
them, deliver them to their enemies.,
etc. Thus Israel's prosperity or defeat
Indicated surely the Lord's favor or
disfavor. In a manner not applicable
to other nations.
Destroyed Without Remedy
i Cur text, taken from Proverbs, tells
whit will be the final outcome of any
conflict between God and the sinner
i Wh oever shall be remanded to the 8ec- j
i onc'l Death, there will be ro hope for j
him.
i The philosophy of this Is plain: j J
| Adamlc death, which comes to all men j
as i result of Adam's sin and his con 5
demnatlon as a sinner. Is to be entire- '
i ly wiped out, and Adam and all of his j
racs are to be fully released from It <
Those of us who, as the Splrlt-begot- f
ten Church, enjoy this favor In the '
I present time, must not expect any
i further favor along this line In the fu !
turs, for Christ dieth no more; and j
! only one share In His redemptive work |
Is provided for every member of the
raca
When In the future all the world
are brought to a knowledge of the
Truth, the grace of God will then be
to them "a savor of life unto life, or
of death unto death," as It Is now to
, the Church.
Israel's Promised Restitution
The Israelites suffered the penalty
for their failure as a nation; they
were destroyed,
HflPT but not without
jHHy j remedy. Indeed,

St Paul brings thin mutter to our
attention very explicitly In his letter
J to tie Romans, (1155-32.) The logic r
of 1.1s argument should be carefully /
noted. Including the fact that Natural
Israel will receive mercy at the hands
of Spiritual Israel?In the Kingdom.
The nation of Israel transgressed
i Divine commands, and was therefore j
, worthy of punishment?but this did ;

come alienated from the Divine mercy
, which God had already Intended and
I promised through Abraham. I
