WHEN ADVERSELY
COMES
= ! i: HlHi
BY Frank d. Slutz

R'lSt
LOVE, TRUTH, faith, hope,
" courage, forgiveness, loyalty, in
telligence, happiness, friendship
these are the spiritual reali-
ties and these are the everlast-
ing elements in this wonderful
creation. Just as moral and ply
sical law obtains dependably
throughout the universe, so does
spiritual law, the law of the in
tangible realities: the law of
prayer, the law of personality,
the law of faith.
The Fact of Adversity
In a living universe, where
planets are developing, where
ocean floors are shifting, where
suns and galaxies are in mighty
motion, where persons either
support or oppose each other,
where the struggle attendant up
on growth is involved, there is
bound to be adversely. Accidents,
losses, separations, misfortunes
do occur. Wherever there is ef-
fort to achieve abundant life,
there will be clashes of interest
!, and contradictory forces in op-
Grafton.
We must acknowledge that
most of the adversity we. encoun-
ter is either of our making~or
is made by other persons. God
himself brings very little adver-
sity into our lives. Now and then,
among a million lovely cool
winds, a tornado whirls upon a
limited area. For years and years
of the enjoyment of mountains
we may suffer an earthquake of
a few seconds. We kill more per-
sons wantOnly in three months
of awful war than God destroys
by his great building plans in
/. three centuries. We are the chief
authors of adversely through our
cruelty, our selfishness, our
meanness, our savagery, our
passion. =
But adversely does come, and
almost all of it is the conse-
, quence of our own stubborn fool
ishness and disobedience. But
back we must come to the truth
that no life escapes adversely.
Nations, like persons, meet it
too. =
Will you examine your own
o. q

life and list the adversitieS you
or others have brought upon
you? Is not death the only seem-
ing adversity that God brings
into your experience? Is death
all adversely? Is it not chief
tenet of our belief. that death is
an opportunity? If this is true
of death, is not God free of any
charge of being the author of
any adversity? What do you
think?
The future outlook., 1947-06-21
Faiths Function

Faiths Function
In Adversely
A stout faith that the best is
true and that it always lives is
wonderful reinforcement when
adversely comes. The major
truths of life, like the enduring
sun, cannot be put out of the
picture by the blacklist cloud
that passes near us.
Faith invites us, in the worst
times, to believe the best. Faith
is anchored to the constant, but
adversely is a rather temporary
experience. If we have no faith,
the temporary seems all import
ant.
A father and mother, the par
ents of two fine sons, were sud-
denly made to confront the fact
that the younger boy had devel-
oped an incurable disease, which
would end his life in a few
months. They were able to pro-
cure for the lad the best medical
services available, but it was of
no permanent use. The young
life ended. The parents were sue
cessful, prosperous, decent, high
minded persons, but without any
faith in the enduring verities.
Death to them was the final
complete catastrophe, the empty
denouement of life, no matter
how splendidly that life had been
lived. They were brOkenhearted
over the loss of the boy, and
they had, no adequate resources
of faith to keep their hearts
comforted. They made a brave,
lonely, courageous fight to ap-
pear nonchalant; but they paid
for the effort heavily in nervous
energy. What boon to them-a
great faith would have been to
sustain them in the belief that
their boy was like God in the
imperishability of his very self
hood!
jeremiah had a faith that
withstood disaster.
Adversely a Strengthener
Of Faith
We eare not wise or strong
enough to be such obedient part
ners of God that we can fend off
all disaster when it comes to us,
but we can make every adversely
strengthener of faith.
. A mother, who was driving her
automobile when it left the road
and killed her little Fboy, who
was in the carr with her, gave
herself anew to other boys and
enriched their lives. She made
her trouble deepen her lowell
ness and extend her service.
Faith can be strengthened
without the experience of adver-
sity, of course. Joy sand gladness
and an increasing abundance of
life can make faith finer; but if
adversely does come, it can be
drafted to magnify our faith.
Have you seen persons made
littler and sourer by adversely?
Have you seen other persons
made sweeter and stronger by it?
Have you used your troubles to
deepen your faith? Are you, if
exceptionally free from troubles,
strengthening your faith because
of your freedom? Have you look
ed into the life of Lincoln or
Pasteur or MathesOn or Tenny-
son or Browning to see what con-
tributions adversely made to his
faith? How would YOU define

WALLACE, Sept. 1.-THE G.
B. D. Parker Estate farms at
Chinquapin, IL miles from Wal
lace, are an outstanding exam
pie of tobacco growing on a
large scale.
The farms are owned by Mrs.
Mary B. Parker, widow of G..
B. D. Parker, who lives in
Chinquapin; George B. D.
Parker, Jr., who lives in Ra-
leigh; Mrs. Sara Parker Olsen,
also of Raleigh; and Hardy R.
Parker, who lives in Chinqua-
pin.
Hardy R. Parker, about 81
years of age, is the youngest Of
the owners but he is taking an
exceptionally active and in
fluential part in the operation
of the farms and determination
of the policies for the future.
L.. R. Hagood is manager Of
the farms. He is unusually able
in adaptation of the farms to
the types of soil and to the
marketing and distribution ia
cilities of the Wallace section.
He is widely-known and admir-
ed for his study of modern
farms and for his progressive
outlook.
The G. B. D. Parker Estate
farms are located in Duplin,
Onslow and Fender counties.
They contain 20, ZOO acres, of
which about 200 are river bot
tom land, which is particularly
adapted to the growing Of corn.
The farms have a plentiful sup
ply Of wood, not only for per-
sonal and farm use but for pro-
lection of the lands against ero-
sion.
The farms are operated by rs
tenants, go of whom are white
and Is Negro. Under the ten
ancy arrangement, the tenant
sharecrops the tobacco acre
age, but leases for a nominal
amount per acre the land on
which other crops are cultiva-
ted. The owners furnish the ten
ant homes, the farm buildings
and the fertilizer. The tenants
own their farm machinery and
many of them have purchased
farm tractors. Farm mechani-
cation steadily is increasing.
Over and above the tenancy
contract the owners furnish
each tenant free acreage for
hay, soy beans and similar soil
building crops. The tenants fur
nish their farm labor.
So satisfactory has been the
tenancy contract that the an
nual turn over in tenants has
not amounted to more than 10
per cent.
For the convenience CT the
tenants and the immediate
neighborhood, the owners oper-
ate a general merchandise store
at Chinquapin, which carries a
variety of goods.
The main crop is tobacco.
This year $40 acres are planted
in tobacco and the crop is 340,-
DOC pounds, which is a large
amount. All the tobacco is mar
keted in Wallace, at the Blanch-
ard and Farrior tobacco ware
house.

In convenient distance of all
