7 Those laborers in our text wore

K context of this text is a challenge

of p.rsons are
K Unsaved today because not u : in
f *'e christian has ever asked the in

|T~' Thrs is practically true oVerywhere.
And most especially among
Negroes. We seem to be the least
tf-.. concerned about the lost, including
our own sons and uuught.'rs. Wj
invite them to join social and
tv other clubs, but when it comes to
L- Christ and the church our active
t=~- ties cease. It's pathetic to se'how
little interest is manifested

ministers whose chref calling i>

As a result we are preaching n
empty benches on Sundays instead
of buildhig more churchej
as the fathers or enlarging oui
present structures to accommo
date the influx. There are cnougl
people out of the church to fill a.?

WE ARE PASSING AWAY
i 'Shocking indeed was the deatl
of Rev. L. Gt Bowman, one o :
the leading pastors m the Co
E. Church, and Circulation Mana
?; ^gtr"7>f The Palmetto Leader.. Thi
release of the funeral which ap
P^ared in last week's issue of Th<
Reader was indeed a fitting tri
bute to th'rs worthy character
and we take this method to ex
prfcss our deepest s^njpathy t<
his bereaved widow and larg
family circle. We commend then
to a throne of grace and to fur
ther assure them of our sincer.
prayers in their distress. Th
passing of the late Seymour Car
roll, was deeply deplored by thi-,
K writer. God is too wise to maki
u mistake and too good to worl
x , vengeance. We are all marchinf
to the tomb, and as the abov.
characters have gone on to thei
reward we are coming too.
