JOHN J05EFiiG^.!K^S.|vl.D. A TALK TO WOMEN

I want to make this talk to my good lady readers I know it concerns every woman whose eyea may fall upon the words herein. |

To. begin with, no two women in thin world are exactly alike. Therefore, it is unreasonable to imagine that they could all take the same kind of medicine .and receive benefit; a "patent medi­cine" that would help one woman,,might fail with ninety-nine others. I have known one woman to spend fifty dollars for a nos­trum Bhe had heard would be "good" for her"; she was disappoint­ed, of course.

No woman should buy & medicine aimed at a single symp­tom; I would not buy a medicine over the counter for "backache," "pelvic trouble," female complaint," "leucorrhea," and such like; the latter may have any one of a hundred causes. Find the cause, treat your case and get well. Only your medical advisor is com­petent.

I have no tolerance for "vegetable compounds," "Indian dis­coveries," Squaw cordials," and the like, such as are sold indis­criminately. Two sisters may have the same symptoms, and yet have entirely different diseases.

Of course, married women differ from their unmarried sis­ters, and of course, require diffeent lines of investigation and, different treatment. It would be foolish to treat both alike, sim­ply because both wore feminine apparel!

In no capacity is the family doctor a more faithful servant than in his treatment of his woman patrons.

The A. and M. Division does not route men to camp but is so desig­nated because approximately 200 transients have been attending school there since September, 1934, under an agreement whereby these students, in return for work on projects about the campus, receive their' tuition, books, food, clothing, lodging and medical care.

To be admitted to a camp, a trans-I lent must signify willingness to work. I Types of work done a the camps are

much like those carried on for resi­dent relief oases and Citizens* Con-servaton Camp enrollees. Women at family camps are taught sewing and other handiwork.

SHOOT THE CANINES It is reported that a number of people in this area have been

bitten by mad dogs wi thin the last week. A number of stories have come to this office, but nothing very definite is known as ye t . However, i t would be advisable for every dog owner in the coun ty to have his dog injected for rabies at once, thus stopping the epidemic, if there is to be one, before it ge ts going good, and also se t t ing a t res t the minds both of the owner of the dog and of everybody else in the neighborhood.

The cos t of the sho t is very small compared to the financial outlay and worry which would follow after a mad dog has Bitten a person . The loss of one's favori te pe t would be hard should the dog innocently bite some neighbor's child and i ts parents demand his head, which they can, even though he migh t be free from the rabies .

TALKING POLITICS We read a grea t deal in the city newspapers, and hear a great

eal of talk among the folk we meet, about the political outlook for 1936. We hear of men who used to regard themselves as R e - | a e i A „ l o a u „ , u u c i m e nno publicans expressing complete satisfaction wi th Mr. Roosevelt's • 0 f j e s u S f Mary of Magdala . Adminis tration and the determination to vote for him again if I — — - — he is renominated, which undoubtedly he will be. On the other hand, we hear of and occasionally meet a Democrat who says he is disgusted with the New Deal and will vote the Republican tick­e t nex t year .

W« hear people talking of candidates to oppose Mr. Roose­velt, of the possibility of a third party or even a fourth or a fifth party. Some think we may develop some coalition such as now exists in England, where a National par ty, composed of leaders drawn from all of the old parties, runs the government.

All of this talk is of interest, and it is significant because it indicates clearly that, whatever else we may have done, the people of America have not surrendered their political independence. Nothing, as we see it, would be worse for the future of America than to have any party leadership so firmly seated in power tha t nothing could dislodge it. That, of course, is the ambition of the leaders of every party . It has seldom been realized, probably nev­er will be. For any element which remains in authority too long inevitably pets to the state of mind where the maintenance of the party, rather than the best interests of the nation, controls its activities. Tha t has happened more than once in our histoiy,

A healthy opposition is neeripri «r all timo= n » * 1.

MARY OF MAGDALA The name Mary was immensely popular In the t ime of Jesus

because of the love of the Jewish people for Mariamiift, the JewiBh wife of Herod, who was murdered by him. Hence the re are s o many women in the N e w Tes tamen t named Mary that we some­

times find it difficult to keep t rack of them . Fo remos t , of course, is Mary, the mo the r of Je­sus. N e x t in order of her importance is Mary of Magdala. Of her early his tory w e know no thing excep t tha t she suffered wi th some ne rvous o r mental complaint.

Av.d it CSmC to JH!*!» "/rVrwi/rrif, thnt. h* went throughout every city and village, preaching and shelving the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him.

And certain icomen, which had been healed •T&m °f ev*l s P i n ' 3 an& infirmities, Mary called Mag-

Br»M BUM* dalene, out of whom went seven devils. We know the names of a few of the women who followed

Jesus on tha t las t jou rney from Galilee to Jerusalem and "min­istered to him of their substance." Three of them were Marys. Some apprehension of expectation of crisis, some woman's, in­s t inc t caused them to leave their homes and be His companions in this last s tage of His public work.

"Crucified, dead and buried 1" Terrible words . The apos tolic group was stunned and paralyzed. How the eleven disciples spen t the hours from nigh tfall of Friday till dawn of Sunday, w e do no t know. B u t on Eas ter morning, "while i t was y e t dark" (John 20:1) these women who had seen Jesus crucified came wi th spices to anoin t His body. They did no t know tha t Joseph of Arima thaea and Nicodemus had already performed tha t melancholy service.

They reached the tomb, wondering who would roll away the s tone for them, and behold, it was already rolled away. And the angel said, "He is no t here; He is risen." The o thers hurried back to tell the disciples, bu t Mary "stood wi thou t , weeping." She i t was who firs t s aw the Lord.

N o wonder Renan, skeptic as he was , marveled a t the fai th which caused her to see tha t vision of a l iv ing Chris t and to pro­claim it. He had a skeptic's easy explana t ion, bu t he said tha t no sane person ever saw any thing t h a t gave to the world such comfort as the v is ion of love tha t the Magdalene beheld. Pe ter and John ran to the sepulchre and found the emp ty tomb; the whole city knew of i t before nigh t .

Bu t Mary's eyes f irs t beheld Him and her glad voice f irs t told tho incredulous disciples . In the power of her fai th and the blessing of her good t idings only Mary the mo ther of Jesus de­serves to stand before this o ther beautiful and devoted follower

WORK RELIEF WAGES Now that the first exci temen t over the wage scales that have

been announced for the work relief projects has died away, we can s i t back and do a little wondering as to jus t how many folks who are now on relief will feel b!ke going to work. We hope tha t the government will be able to find enough work to put everv put every

-..v. ov,..i«u o.i a. joo . Assuming that there are enough projects to take up most of the slack, i t seems to us tha t the only way the whole plan can be made effec t ive is to take every­body off direct relief who refuses to go on work relief.

The work relief wages for unskilled workers range from $19 "* *' - rom $75 to $94 a mon th .

. ody who really wan ts to ing private employment when tha t is available. Bu t

,, ~6^., ivi uuntutiea worners range to $40 a month, and for skilled workers from $75 to $94 a mon th .

tha t if he goes on work relief a t $40 a month he is really gettincr S 1 n a month for working. We have heard of such cases.

« * » FLAGS . . . . increaied tales

The Chicago Association of Com­merce reports that three times as many American flags have been sold so far this year as in the first half of 1034. I don't know that that means that the reaction against Communism has set in, as the Chicago business men seem to think, but I would be glad to see a general revival of the olf-frshioned "flag-raisings" .that used to be a regular Fourth-of-July affair in the smaller communities, and even in some big cities, in ray youth.

Every rural town in the East used to have its "Liberty Pole," and the hoisting of the Stars and Stripes, with a prayer by the minister, a "concert" by the local "brass band," and a pat­riotic speech by some local or import­ed big-wip wer«» fitting- prelude* to the sports and games and picnic feast in which everybody took part.

There is a little hill on my farm where the Liberty Polo used to stand, up to forty or fifty years ago. The pasture around it is still known as "the flagpole lot."

If I thought anything could divert my neighbors from.their holiday joy­riding to an exhibition of patriotism.

tho country a good deal, calling on and it is the exception to find a coun. try or village home where the radio is not going.

There isn't any doubt that the radio has proved a powerful influence in getting all sorts of people to thinking of social and political questions, to which they never gave attention be­fore. It is bringing religion into many homes whose people, for one reason or an other, never go to church. Then the music, the houscholdtalks for the home-makers ,the entertain­ing features for the children, the farm market news and all the rest of the good things that are broadcast.

* * * WAR two ides

Listening to and reading all the anti-war talk that is going around, I

am reminded of the moat atirring speech I have ever heard Wood row Wilton make It waa 24 ye-ars ago. In June, 1911, Kit Denver, -when he spoke of "The Bible and Progress," apoke at a believing and practical ChriaWan to an audience composed of moat of the members of all the Christian churches in that dty .

"Liberty," he mad, "\* a spiritual conception . . . There axe times in the history- of- nationa'- vrhen they moat take up the crude implementa of bloodshed in order to vindicate spirit, ual conceptions . . . Whan men take up arms to set other men free, there is something sacred and holy in the •warfare."

That was spoken more than three years before Europe went to war in 1914, more than six years before the IJnlt^ RtoitM went into the conflict. Nobody wanted war. But when a sit­uation arose in which America was called upon to vindicate the spiritual conception of Liberty, as Mr. Wilson had phrased it, we went into the war in that spirit

Dont let anyone tell you America went to war for profit or to save somebody's investments.

The Holy Spiri t Lesson for June &th. John 16:7-11. Golden Text: Romans 8:14 John assigns aeverul functions to

the Holy Spirit. First of all, he re­fers to it as the agent of remem­brance, bringing to mind what Jesus

taught. "The Holy Spirit will bring to your memories all that I have said to you." Chap. 14:20. In the .next place, the spirit testifies to the claim "The

Truth will be a v.-itness concerning me." (Chap. 15: 2 C ) .

Thirdly, the Spirit convinces the world of righteousness and judgment. "And He, when He comes will con­vict the world in respect of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment." (Chap . 16:8) . Again, the Spirit leads to all truth, and reveals what is to come. "When'He has come—the Spirit of Truth—He will guide you into all the truth . And he will make known the future to you." (Chap. 16:13) .

Finally, the Spirit, after the disap­pearance of Jesus, will act in his place j and speak for him. "He will glorify, me, because He will take what i s ! mine and will make it known to you." (Chap. 16:14).

In all this John presents the Spirit as the Reve&ler. There are two kinds of knowledge. .The flrst'is that which e w e s by careful thinking in irith the eatabHshed technic of anal­ysis, cl«u(Bificatlon,.aDd logic dedwei-

[3u / ; U J<nOV/

ton. The second is what flows, by a mystical supernatural process, from that divine broadcasting system of spiritual power we call God.

It is this latter type of knowledge John associates with the Spirit. The Spirit, in his mind, illumines the be­liever with truth that cannot be dis­covered by any human process of thought.

Such truth is new, bringing with it a thrill of joyous surprise. But it also protects and perpetuates the old. Thus the message of the Spirit is an abid­ing one; While it has the freshness of tomorrow it possesses also the fa-

of Jesus, miliar touch of yesterday. Spirit of

Appeal for Funds

ROBSOS GOLDES RULE

Twelve little words! In just so few is that, May Robson sums up the phil-jsophy of her living.

"I try to be," said the great actress, vho is featured in RKO-Radio's 'Strangers All." with Preston Foster, •what those who love me think I am."

And she wrote it down as "her gos­pel" of how people should conduct hemselves in these sophisticated ul­

tra-modern days. The reason for the minature "ser­

mon" Miss Robson explained, was a long letter she received from a pub­lication asking her for a 500-word article on "What has religion done for you?"

Miss Robson comes to the Palace Theatre in "Strangers All" Tuesday and Wednesday.

The annual drive for funds to car­ry on the work of the Salvation Army will be made here at an early date, according to W. D. Pedigo, campaign, er who has been in charge of the work for the past several years. He will as. sist in making the canvass which will be supervised by the local county ad-visoiy committee.

The funds will be used to carry on the extensive Christian service in this section and the Texas division.

The Salvation Army operates with­out regard to class or creed and ap­peals to all who are interested in the neglected and suffering not reached by other organizations. During the past meals have been served to 474,-000 persons in this division; employ­ment found for 14,000 men and wo­men; 97,000 families given relief and service; 150 girls taken care of in maternity homes and hospitals, and thousands have been won to right­eousness, according to Mr. Pedigo. The appi-al for funds is for the entire year and no other authorized canvass will be made.
