who are going through life suffer-
ing with a skin disease, making you
uncomfortable, making you less eff
ficient, Interfering with your work

may have tried many things with
out relief. Why not try S.S.S.? For
more than 100 years it has been CIV
ing relief in many forms Of skin
disease. Thousands of letters of
gratitude prove its worth.
"I feel SO happy for what S.S.S.
has done for me that I want others

Simon and his men would cat beans,
but they have been working. Simon

WINSETT DRAWS
MANY TO HEAR
HIS PREACHING

The auditorium of the First Bap-
tist church was filled last night to
hear Evangelist WinSett deliver a
timely message based on the first two
verses of the 18th chapter of Ro-
mans. With but few preliminary re-
marks he launched AZ once into the
meaning of the text given in the
words of the Apostle Paul: Brethren,
I ,beseech you by the fnercies of God
that you present your bodies a living
sacrifice, held acceptable to God,
which is your reasonable service"
"We believe in Gods word as His
infallible revelation to man. We are
living in a time of anJi-bible teach
ings, and societies are being organ
lied to discredit the word of God.
Atheistic teaching is on every hand.
The challenge comes to us to do
just as Paul has said-'T beseech
you by the mercies OF God, what an
appeal-the whole shootin match
needs a general round up on this
religion business. Our Methodist
friends used to have old time camp
meetings and shout the praises of
God but they got to running too
much with the Baptists till they
have about quit 1T"
At this juncture in his message the
evangelist gave a graphic description
of an old time camp meeting Of his
boyhood days when his father and
mother gathered up the chickens
and tied an old COW behind the
wagon and started away to the camp
meeting grounds. The evangelist COM
plimented the old time preachers and
the high standards of Christian Iiv-
ing they upheld. M
present your bodies living sac
rifice," said Paul God holds me ac-
countable for the deeds of this
body. If your life does not demon-
strate the saving grace of the Lord
Jesus, something is wrong with your
life. Gods standing grace of the
Lord Jesus, something is wrong with
your life. Gods standards have never
changed. We must put Christian liv-
ing on that high and holy plane

States, and also assured the president
that Belgium would never be unmind
full of the generosity and cooperation
of the American people during and
since the war. i.g8

American people, that we will always

In some literature or other there
is drawn the word picture OF Youth
sitting obedient at the feet OF Law. =.
My suspicion IL that such a concep-
ton OF Youth must have been IN
vented by a gray-beard, who hlm-
self had broken most of the laws in
his youth. For old age Is the period
of cold -blooded moralizing. when men
who have lived fully sit down to
draw up system of ethics for youth
using the simple method OF listing
their own errors and advising the
youngest generation to avoid them.
Not that I would have young peo-
ple conduct themselves lawleESly.
There is a certain modicum of good
behavior which the good sense OF
every young person will warn him
not to transgress. What ! object to
is the impertinent suggestion of old
er people that they can impose on
the young all the laws which they
themselves learned through costly
trial and error. In other words, j
place no confidence in the habit of
advising young people what. specif-
ically, they must and must not 90.
Yet, through using our sympathy
and understanding of youths prop
lens. | believe we older ones can con-
tribute to the ultimate happiness of
those just beginning life by point
ing out the results to which the two
attitudes toward life--the negative
and the positive--will lead them.
Here is my idea. Youth is gay and
Graves enjoyment. 1t should have 1t.
too. But youth Is also the period
of building up a career. so that these
two instincts--the instinct to play
and the instinct to grow day by day
in power to do effective work In the
world--are bound to clash. The at
titude of the individual toward the
contrary pull of these two instincts
is exactly what will determine wheth-
CIR he is to be rounded man
or a. trifier. One simply must MAIN
tain a balance between these two
things.
Consider two types Of boys. One
Is so obsessed by the glamour OF life
that he wants always to be playing,
always slipping gayety, SO that he be-
gins to resent hard work as an intru-
sion on his amusement. That is what
/ have referred TO as the negative
attitude"
Another boy keeps his head. His
imagination early grasps the idea
that work is fun in itself, IL gone at
with enthusiasm and high spirits.
At first he goes at work only through
personal necessity or because he sees
all the adults about him working.
Then, as he gets a hold on things.
he comes to realize that work--how-
ever boring at times--was meant for
mans happiness. and that no man
who spends his time trying to loaf
gracefully Is truly happy. That Is
the positive attitude"
Nature has put in our make-ups
a thing called conscience, which we

puzzled, too. OF course. he did not
admit the possibility of repeating the

all that, he felt better when he real
lied that his message to Irene was on
it's way. He felt that she would &C
cept the invitation. He had made II
fairly urgent. And once at the shack,
she would know intuitively how TO
manage the situation.
Irene had maturity and tolerance to
meet Jessica's willfulness: she would
help him. And yet when he climbed

how much he would have to tell Irene
about the situation. Somehow 1t didn't
seem fair to Bunny to tell too much.
Well, he would cross his bridges as
they came. It was foolish to borrow
trouble.
The storm struck him before he had
driven a mile, and he was forced to
stop the car and put UP the top. The
rain beat down on him so that he was
drenched when he was once more
ready to start. but somehow he didn't
mind. His blood was singing in his
veins, his face tingled where the rain
drops had stung him.
His thoughts leaped to Jessica as
he jammed his foot down on the ac-
celerator. The storm was really quite
bad. Would she be frightened? After
all. it hadn't been very sporting of
him to leave he'd. He might have
asked her to drive in with him. But
at the time he had not only been
angry with himself, but with her. He
had wanted to be alone.
From Jessica his mind turned to
Irene. Having asked her up to the
shack, he had in a way definitely CON-
mitted himself IL che accepted the
invitation. She would expect him TO
propose to her and. of course, he
meant to do that very thing. and as
his thoughts dwelt on the serious
results of his telegram and he actu-
ally faced the idea of asking Irene to
marry him. the exhilaration of a few
moments ago left him.
Somehow he could not imagine
Irene relaxed in his arms. giving him
back kiss for kiss. He had never
made the slightest attempt to touch
her. Their relationship had been one
of pleasant comradeship and interest
ing conversation. Her mind was alert
and her talk was clever. even witty.

were these things enough for mar

Were the sweeter, madder moments
of life over for him? These questions
surged up In him, filled him with a
vague unrest.
He reached the house and stopped
the car in the clearing. As he flung
open the door and strode into the
living room. he realized that he want
ed to see Jessica. He wanted to tell
her that he had sent for Irene. He
had a savage desire to hurt her, t,
wound her pride. and yet as his eyes
became accustomed to the dim light
in the room and he actually saw
Jessica coming toward him. all desire
to hurt her was swept out of his
thoughts. She was such a child.
Foolish. yes, but foolishness went
hand In hand with youth. How could
he be sure that she meant half the
foolish, willful things she said? Hadn't
he seen her once with her eyes all
misty and her mouth tender? And
now she was frightened, she needed
comforting.
