PAYNE WANTS ACTION

Ecitor Star: Please allow me to
suggest to your readers through the
Star to call the attention of the white
women who are going to vote to the
names of the democratic nominees in
this election, so that they may famil-
iarize themselves and know, when
they attempt to vote, who and what
Larne to mark, no matter how many
other names are printed on the ticket.
In registering the white women
here / found them totally at loss to
know who are the nominees and how
to get this information and how to
mark their ticket and it is only thru
the press that we hope to get this in
formation, by having the papers print
the names of the democratic eandi-
dates in full from now until election
This is new class of voters willing
and ready to do their full duty but
lack information and methods and
will have to be instructed and the
press of the country is the educator
The county superintendent should
have list of democratic nominees
posted in full and republican also il
desired, in every white schoolhouse ir
this county and teachers instructed te
give five or ten minutes daily tc
teaching this branch of civil govern,
ment. Educate. the child and you edu.
cate the home and make the citizen fl
for the duties of life. This is sug,
gested in. the interest of our nation
state and county and sincerely hope
i will meet with your approval.
Success to you. and your fearless
paper. Sincerely yours,
NJ. L. Payne.

MISS GIsT IN ocALA

Following yesterdays missionary
meeting in the Methodist church, Mrs.
II. M. Moore, president of the w NJ.
s., introduced Miss Annetta Gist Of
Mcintosh, who has recently returned
from FIVE years service in the mission
fields of Japan.
Miss Gist led her hearers in an
imaginary tour othrougl the Sunrise
Kingdom, explaining modes. of travel
and customs, the latter quite TIE op-
posite to ours. Buddhism and Shin
toism prevail and teachers and pupils.
who do not worship at the government
shrines. and do homage to the spirits
of departed heroes, are considered dis
loyal They worship they know not
what, in religion which they care
nothing for. not even morality, the
priests themselves being depraved>
Our kindergarten work, tho much
handicapped for lack of finances and
the H. C. of L. is accomplishing much
| in the conversion of parents through
their children, who readily learn their
Bible stories, songs and the Christian
example of our trained workers there.
English night schools are very effec-
tive in bringing many young men to
Christ and in aiding them to decide
for the ministry among their own peo-
pie. Yearly commerce increases be-
tween US and Japan and what we do
for them counts for the world
Materialism grows in Japan and
alarmingly in America. We are so
satisfied with ourselves spoke Miss
Gist, that we forget the rest of the
world, and cannot see that right
among US. in our own Southland, we
have the problem of Africa. What
are we doing toward supplying COM
Ipetent teachers, leaders and real
preachers of Gods word to eradicate
the fads, superstitions. excitement and
Iisms which are so detrimental to the
Isalvation of souls Do we "think on
lthes things and do we realize that
Inothing anywhere can help America
but His word thru the gospel and the
examples of those who live daily in
she service of the Great Master who
"went about doing good?"s
There was a splendid audience from
lall of our churches to hear Miss Gisi
, land as she is to remain yet some
time before returning to her work il
Japan, her many friends look forward
to another meeting with her.
