NEWS
BY L. B. HAIRR

"a new pasture should be moved
for, hay before the cattle are allow
ed to Craze it," Thomas Holland of
Marion, Rt. l, pointed out last week.
Mr.. Holland recently moved his
pasture that was seeded last fall.
He states that cutting the grass and
clover does not disturb the roots,
and when new growth comes out
they are stronger and better rooted
plants. Therefore, it is not so easily
pulled up by the cattle in grazing.
w. F. Justice of West Marion re-
ports that his kudzu is growing nice
ly this spring. Mr.. Justice set this
kudzu along the steep creek banks
on the south side of his pasture.
Sam Mason and A. Burgin of
Crooked Creek built 1000 feet of
broad base terraces on their farm
last week. The local Soil Conserva-
ton Service personnel assisted Mr..
Mason and Mr.. Burgin in construct
ing their terraces.
Soil Conservation is good farm
and results in addition
al income with minimum of effort

come effective September /.

Last years support prices, based

Take Your Family
To Sunday School
By Rev. c. O. Johnson, D. D.

"Going to Sunday SCHOOL, has
been a phrase which we have come
to use all together too seldom. The
real Significance is attending Sun
day school with the family.
The family unit in the world is
the basis of all civilization. Devel-
oping the family unit is the hope
of the. future. No place in all our
activity should we more readily and
more intellectually unite than in
uniting as family in attendance
at the Sunday school and, Of course,
the worship service.
1t is not wise for parent to say
to a child, "You must go to Sunday
school," Much better, of course, is
the other way round, to say Come
let US go to Sunday school,"
The influence in the life of boy
or girl of the regular attendance of
parents at the Sunday school, Sun
day after Sunday, cannot be over
estimated. Boys and girls are de-
pendent upon US for example. 1t is
not safe for boy who has father
who insists on sending him t. Sun
day school while that fasncr keeps
an engagement on the golf course.
1t is no less sin to send the family
to Sunday school while the man of
the house finds his way to the Of
flee to get caught up on some work
which he wanted to get done before
the new week started.
Nothing is so refreshing as to
gather with friends of other fam
lilies to study the Word Of God 'on
the Lords Day, and then to sit in
the place which is dedicated to wor-
ship and listen to the message of
the pastors as he speaks for God
to the hearts of men.
A knowledge of the Bible is ne
cessary to be an educated person.
The best source for this knowledge
is found today in the Sunday schools
of our land.
Not to do that is to deny the SON
or daughter their rights and to send
them out into the world more or less
adrift. If we would but anchor our
selves and then while holding on to
the anchor, reach a hand out to SON
or daughter and say, "Catch hold,
we are going together and l shall
lead the way"
This viii greatly increase our
Sunday school attendance, but more
than that, it will increase the char
acter of our nation and decrease the
Juvenile failure which comes often
If not most often, from parental
failure. One Of the biggest failures
is right here not taking the IA
mily to Sunday school.
Let US resolve that in every home.
there will be the leadership furnish
ed that will see a united family on
time in a Sunday school, ready to
study the Word of God to learn His
way of life. We shall see great re-
suits when this movement really
gets under way.
Again let us say it "Come, let
us take the family to Sunday school
today"
