INTEREST CONTINUES
IN SIMPSON MEETING

The meeting at the First Chris
tiaE church Continued with una
bated interest. A we'll filled
house greets DR.. Simpson every
evening and his audience listens
with close attention as he pre-
sents the plea of the gospel.
Last evening DR.. Simpson s
text was found III Romans, the
eighth chapter, first and second
verses. Obedience to the spirit
ual law, the law of Christ, gives
freedom from the law of sin
which is death. Christ is the
only one who can help us to cast
off the shackles of sin and lead
us into the freedom that comes
through peace and poy through
obedience. There are only two
roads to travel, the broad way
that leads to destruction, and
the narrow way that leadeth to
life eternal. There are only two
sides to question, the right and
the wrong. There are only two
ways to regard the Christ, to be
for Him or to be againstIIim.
Each evening the opportunity
is given to acknowledge the
Christ, to own Him Lord t. ali
and the Savior of each individual
man. DR.. Simpsons sermons are
earnest. forceful and convincing,
and surely much OF his seed-sow~
ing will fall on good ground and
bring forth a rich harvest.

Paint Lick, Ky, oct. 20, l9ZL
Editor Richmond Register,
Ny Dear Sir;
lust now Madison county has Il
very sick patinet and the QUESTION
is up Nov. 9TH as to what we
propose TO do with this patient
We might add that this patient
as not foreign born. neither has
it wandered into or fold from
some other state. 1t is Madison's
own child. 1t is on our hands
and we cannot push it aside.
What are we going to do about
it? VIII we cut its throat and
throw it over the back ferce,
there to die: If we do, It's ghost
will remain to haunt us.
We have doctored this patient
by applying I:ttie save here
and d little salve there, and the
result is the patient is no better
and our salve wasted.
Now. voters OF Madison coulr-
ty, this sickness IS our presenr
road system. WEI YOU vote for
the 2Cc road tax on Nov.7th and
do something really worth while
for this sick man. or ave you go
Jag to vote against this PROPOSE
ton and thereby cut its throat
and leave its bones 30 bleach IS
It can't be buried. hidden or put
out Of SIGHT. for it will remain
with us. dead or alive. Again,
what are we going TO do;
This paper has been 50 fair
that its columns have IccI used
by individuals who have sought
to criticize and register their
protest. without offering any So
tuition to this matter whatever.
| ask. is this lair: Have we
the right to criticize anything un-
less we can offer something bet
ter in its stead? We have no
right to criticize a sermon, even
if we can't get up and preach
better one ourselves.
This patient is sicL unto dearl.
We must look for Il remedy. Thc
proposed remedy OF 2Oc road ta>
is not one suggested BY a lot Of
quacks. but by the leading citi-
zens and business men of or
county and we have not the right
to oppose this unless we can at
the same time, offer to the Pco-
pie a better solution to this prob
lem Of theirs. The time mas
cCme and is now here when We
must do something. Some folks
Just will oppose things, as they
only look ON the dark side OF I
picture. never seeing the beauty
Of ANYTHING. These folks remind
me OF the man to whom a Ger
tain king once handed d book
and asked him to read and then
give his opinion OF it. The court
official did so and handed his king
an elaborate criticism. where
upon the king gave him a bushel
Of unwinnowed wheat and bade
him go and pick the chaff for his
labor, telling him that he was
looking for the beauties. Of the
book and rot its faults.
It is figured that our taxes
wi be increased about II cents
per acre fer a period of 6 years.
That seems to be the biggest
fault. Does not this tax sink into
insignifcance when compared
with the advantages and the en-
HANGED price of land that good
roads would mean to Madison
county?
Again. the only remedy worthy
the name. is the Zoe road tax and
let's all be for it.
Respectfully.
