Ray Lloyd has been sick.

We are again face to face with that
familiar word-promotion. 1t is not
at all an unpleasant word to hear;
some in fact may see in it something
of the musical, while to others there
may be something of discord In the
drawn out syllables.
Our education has been compared
to ladder which we make, and in
such comparison we might think of
each round as marking the compile
ton of one half year Of school work.
By completion | mean the placing of
a new round on which we may con-
tinue to huild tDward the completion
of solid structure. But consider
the result when we are allowed to be-
gin on a new round when the one we
have been working on is far from he
ing strong enough to'support us while
we work on the Dext.
How shall we expect to reach the
top of the ladder when we are not
willing to stay by each half year until
we have mastered it thoroughly
enough to be able tn understand and
accomplish that which comes later.
For instance, how can person be
able to solve problems in percentage
until he has mastered decimal frac-
tions, and pupil would find 1t diff
cult indeed to grasp the idea of inter-
est until he had thoroughly mastered
percentage Then If it be true that
the ease with which we master any
half year of school work depends upon
how well we have gotten that which
came just before, why not be content
to stay in one grade until we have
gotten something on which we can
build our later school work?

faith in Christ and united with the
Byzantine Missionary Baptist
church, August 1918, and lived a
CONSTANT christian life until the
summons came, Feb. 10, 1916.
Roy was afflicted all his life, but
seldom complained aud especially
was he patient after he found the
Christ, who was call in all" TO
him. He often talked to his loving
christian mother Of the time when
he should go to dwell IN the land Of
endless day-the Home in the Faith.

be no sorrow, pain or death. The
summons has come-Roy has
answered the call. lie Is "absent
from the body" but at home with
the Lord and to "Depart and be
with Christ is gain.' lie has
ceased to suffer. The earthly house
of this tabernacle is at rest in the
cemetery at Logan New Mexico,
waiting for the "adopton to wait
the redemption Of the body" when
'many that sleep in the dust OF the
earth shall rise" aud bis spirit shall
claim his body.
Dear bereaved father, mother,

of a loving Father. We can't call
HIM back but we can 90 to him,

Caution 10 Farmers

With a shortage of ships to move
our cotton % foreign shores; with
no indication Of the end of the war;
with the Nation stirred over pre-
paredness for eventuailties; with
the buying power Of the entire
world gradually lessenng day by
day, it becomes our duty to Issue
tins formal warning as the time of
planting cotton is at hand.
Let everyone encourage the far.
mer TO be on the safe side by rails
ing plenty of feed and food for the
community as well as for himself,
his family and livestock. "a calf,
a pig, chickens and garden often
mean the difference between want
and money ahead) Economical
and safe living for all as well as
'safe farming" must be the rule if
prosperity is to abide with us.
Six cent cotton this fall would
spell disaster IN the cotton States.
Low price follows over supply as
certainly as the night the day.
High prices and prosperity over the
South this year prove what volun-
tary reduction of cotton acreage
does. Any marked increase over
last year is going to result in great
loss to Southern cotton producers,
merchants ond bankers, and will
affect all allied business
and professions.
