Kf * """"" ' g- a, ? 1 Nil < j; "The Old Gray" *; :: By i: 1 < R?v. E. Philip Ellis I ? o ^ An Editor Any number of inquiries are being: made as to who will edit this well established and \ widely read paper in the future. I must confess that the same question has given the enmpany nn little concern. When your consider the - late Attorney N. J. Frederick the outstanding: editor of this paper from its beginning: you will readily see that the securing1 of his successcrr will not be an easy job. 1 Owing to the many fine contributions from our contributors the paper has not ceased to be a newsy publication since the death of our editor, and demands on the company for the "Leader" grows larcrer everv wepV. Tn the Inst few weeks the editorial column has been nicely cared for. Prior to that time some well prepared articles were released in that space, and occasionally "The Old Gray" would he trotted out, -We feel now that the time is ripe to -? ^make-choice of- an editor. Since l^ie "Palmetto Leader is an inter_J denominational organ it doesn't matter from what denomination the editor may be selected, he or she must be impartial when it comes to church politics. In fact the irrealeat duty of m dividual is to speak out against evils effecting the country irrespective of race. And an editor of a Negro paper must neyer neglect ap opportunity to advise those of his racial group. He should furnish his people sound and sane instructions along all ? lines. -Lastly he should be wise as a sernent and brave as. a lion. Above all he should never allow his personal grievances to entei ."his editorials. Editors should discuss Pleasures more so than men. "Peace On Earth" There is no question but that we are living in an age of confusion. It appears that peace is *ei|ther warrted nor appr?eci|ited fn the world today. Nations and individuals had rather do wrong than right every time and almost everywhere. Reforms will nevei * be ligislated into persons. They 1 must .come from within. All of Itfie eleatric chairs and gas chamber* will never stop people from killing each other. Neithei will the chain gangs and stripes stop stealing and other such crimes. -Nations are preparing to fight seemingly as never before. Billions are being spent annually on war equipments and millions in all denominations for the gospel of neace. The coming of the world's Redeemer was to bring peace on earth and good will toward men." This proclamation is o be carried out by the Christian ? church, notwithstanding the progress seems to be very slow. In many instances where the church ought be gaining the world, its losing back to the world. One of -the slow reaaona for th^ ingathering of souls to the church is due to misunderstanding of Bible conversion. Many a minister of our race as well as laymember knows less abcrut being born again than Nioodemus did nearlv two thousand years ago." And until we put away hatred, and strife and seek a friendly relation one with another as well as nations with nations destruction will be abroad over our entire land and country. Bible mode of ecmversion should be taught our people now as never before. Our Directory Column We appreciate most heartily the many compliments of our direc fcory culumn which appeared las I week. And in rely we might say that that number represented c/nly a Rmall fraction of the .many readers of the paper.
