Famine of the Word

As our good old county paper, the
Star Herald, his given an invitation TO
preachers, teachers and farmers of the
county to put their thoughts and views
in writing on the problems of the
church, the school and the farm and
as / am a local preacher in the NJ. f.
Church for thirty-eight years, / shall
offer my contribution on the church
problem
In the first place our denominational
churches are all i'm the Slough of Des-
pond In Amos S:11-12 God said He
would send a famine, not a famine Of
bread and water, but a famine of the
Word of God, and men shall from sea
to sea, from north to east and run to
and fro and shall not find it. The rea-
son for their not finding it is that God
is not revealing it unto them. The
reason He is not revealing IT unto them
is that we have left our first estate,
we have put off our garments of white
and instead put on the spotted gar
ments of the world.
The churches are linked up with
worldly pleasures such as baseball,
card tables and the dance hail. Jesus
plainly tells us that we cannot serve
God and Mammon. But we are trying
it and are making a bad mess of the
whole affair.
We have too much brain religion
and not enough heart religion. Jesus
said Give me thine heart"

Exposed TO an Education

The most important need of most
rural schools is further consolidation.
Certainly we can never hope to get
effective teaching in schools where one
teacher handles Tor tries to handlel
everybody from the first TO the seventh
grades. Such a teacher is just as
badly Overcropped as one man would
be If he tried to cultivate eighty acres
of cotton without any other person,
young or old, to help him. He might
give few acres "A lick and pro-
mise" but he could not keep down the
grass nor save the crop from general
failure. Neither can teacher save
crop of boys and girls from failure
when each class only gets "a lick and
a promise"
In the old days when a mans speed
was limited to that of horses legs,
school consolidation would not wisely
90 far. The coming of the school
truck" however, has changed all that.
And now when one teacher can give
all her time and thought to helping
children in one grade (instead of divid-
ing her time and attention among
seven grades), children are really max
ing progress and getting somewhere.
They are really getting educated in
stead Of being merely exposed to an
education'-which is about the best
that could be claimed for the old-fash-
ioned one-teacher school The children
were exposed to an education"-but
in most cases it didn't take !"-Con-
tributed, -t....-..
