Everything is moving along the line
of progress in this part of the vine
Uncle Toms katydid went back on
him. He said there would be frost the
5th of October according to the katy
dds. We now see there is not much In
it.
Now, in reply to Joe Hackworth 8
last article: Joe, you mistook me and
misconstrued what l said. Here is
what | said verbatum and literatum,
as near as / remember: 1.-THE boy
that obeys his parents and attends
church regularly and obeys what the
preacher tells him and attends Sunday
school, goes up in the class, rarely ev-
err gets into trouble, but the peniten-
tiaries are filed up with the boys that
failed to do these things, stayed away
from church and Sunday school, dis
obeyed his parents was the boy that
got into trouble" Now, if you be-
Iieve to the contrary and have proof
trot it out or hush mp. You challeng-
ed what ] said. Now, bring out the
proof and show that of the boys who
have done these things what per cent
of them are in the pen. Misguided me
again. / said there was no such a
thing as Sunday school mentioned in
the Bible. You took me to task on
this and said you would like to have
an explanation. This doesn need any
explanation unless you take this posi-
ton. | will admit there are some
preachers in the pen, but | am by
them like Abraham Lincoln was.
Two women went to him in the time
of the war, trying to get him to par
don their husbands. They told him
their husbands were truly religious
men and had done many things for
the church and they belonged to the
same church that he did. Abe said
"a man religion that won't keep him
from rebellion against his country is
not the genuine article While there
are some. preachers in the pen,I say a
mans religion that don't prompt him
to obey the law is not the genuine ar
ticle.
In the third place you misquoted me
| when you said 'all of the members
| of Sunday school were christians
Here is I what said ITO honor the
Lord in a Sunday school all of the
teachers and the superintendent mus
be christians and for illustration
said that teachers and superintendent
who were drunkards and blasphemers
| of Gods holy name standing up Sun
days trying to teach Gods law, was
hypocracy and blasphemy. I am OPP
| posed to such Sunday schools as this
but for the preachers and superinten
| dent to be servants of the Lord and tt
conduct the work righteously and t.
] impart what Christ says for saint an(
sinner to do. | am in favor of it TO-
Christ, said, $50 We and teach (deci
pies and christians) all nations. Yol
see Christ committed teaching the Bi
BILE to His followers and no one else
So Joe, shear away ON your old SOW.
