The Bible

SCIENCE SEX SILVER
modernism's holy trinity
The above picture describes all too clearly
the gods of the world -- including America.
Science is spending millions of dollars trying
to find out where man came from, where the
earth, the moon, the stars, etc. came from.
How foolish for a people who claim to be intelli-
gent, to spend so much money, time, and energy
in an attempt to find some answer that suits
their preconceived ideas. It would be much
more simple (AND SOUL SAVING) to just turn
to God's Holy Word and accept what it snys,
because it answers the questions of true science,
and the questions, "Where did we come from?",
"Why are we here?", and "Where are we
going?" The apostle Paul warns in I Timothy
6:20 that we are to beware of "science falsely
so called." Evolution and its evil fruits are
just that -- "false science" and its advocates
are rejecting the only true source of information
as to the origin of man and the universe. Truly,
man is worshiping false science that will condemn
to hell.
Another god that is worshipped by the world

on sex. God lias commanded ana taught in many

ihasis
scriptures that sex is for the marriage bed and
that "whoremongers and adulterers God will
judge." (Hebrews 13:4; Ephesians 5:5; I Tim.
1:10; Revelation 21:8). The advertising media
of our day thinks it has to portray sex in some
way while advertising everything from aspirin
to zerox machines. America and the world is
sex crazy, and if the trend doesn't change to
God's way, it will result to more souls spending
eternity in hell.
Still another god worship by the masses of
people is the almighty dollar. Many people think
that money is the root of all evil, but they are
wrong in this. The Bible teaches that "the
LOVE of money is the root of all kinds of evil."
(I Tim. 6:10). Men are so set on acquiring
money and what it will buy that they will cheat,
lie, steal, murder, embezzle, rob, forsake God,
and do just anything to get another dollar. This
is one of the main reasons God is pushed to

They agreed, then one of the

There are a few checks on
these long-defunct banks float-
ing around.
Bud Leatherwood has held
blank checks from the two banks
for years. Both bear 190_
datings.
Bob Hardin asked Leatherwood
for the relics to have them
reprinted. Hardin ordered a
supply from Curry Printing and
has the blank checks at his
service station.
The Dickens check has a
"Pay to_ or Order,
$_ line while the
Emma variety states "Pay to
the Order of" which is identical
to the wording on today's
checks.
Can anyone remember when
the First National Bank existed
in either Dickens or Emma?
When did the banks close? If
you know, please give us a phone
call or, better yet, come by
our office.

DISCOUNTING
A stiff neck while recovering

Dick Snograss' sense of
humor.
The mayor and City Secre-
tary Norton Barrett flew to
Albuquerque, N.M., recently to
seek an additional Federal
Aviation Administration grant
for the Crosbyton Airport, made
possible under a new law.
The pair decided they should
rent an automobile to drive
to FAA offices in a different
section of town from the air-
port.
They inquired about car rental.
Then His Honor questioned
the salesclerk about whether
a ministerial discount was
available on the rented vehicle.
"Yes sir, 20 per cent," he
was told.
That was the mayor's que.
He quickly turned to the city
secretary and asked:
"Brother Barrett, would you
rather have a limousine?"

This is particularly, but not
entirely, true of teachers.
An era in which the smaller
towns appear increasingly at-
tractive as the place to raise
a family is being slowed by
a shortage of an adequate supply
ofr desirable living quarters.
In this day of affluence, it
seems! that families are being
selective about their residence.

SURE TASTES GOOD
Crosbyton just has to have
more than its share of nice
folks.
Our family sure has been
enjoying some garden fresh
roasting ears and blackeyepeas
this week, thanks to the gene-
rosity of the J. F. Fletchers,
Arnal Fpwlers and Weldon Mc-
Clures. Thanks a bunch.
When rationality was restored,
the El Paso pair apologized.
They were offered breakfast by
both Mrs. Bennett and Deputy
Taylor. They refused the meal

graphed and alerted by Luker
about the

’THUMBING' FOR RIDE
The episode began about 8:10
a.m. Thursday as Taylor was
enroute to Crosbyton to feed the
four male prisoners housed on
the second floor of the county
jail and the two juvenile girls
who were being detained for
their parents.
Near the Caravan Restaurant
on the eastern edge of Ralls,
Taylor spotted a young anglo
miss attempting to "thumb a
ride."
He told her he would give her
a ride to Crosbyton, which was
refused. Then he asked for an
identification card, and the girl
signaled to her friend who was
sitting on a parking rail in front
of the restaurant end whom the
officer had not previously
noticed. Taylor examined both

id cards, one of which was
"questionable."
The twosome inquired about "a
good place to eat." At this
point, the deputy learned the
nitchnikers had ”$1.90 between
them." He offered assistance by
providing a meal "when I feed
the prisoners at the jail.'
They accepted the offer.
NO ANIMOSITY
The threesome talked while
driving to Crosbyton. No ani-
mosity was shown even after
Taylor explained to the two that
they would need to remain in
a cell while he went for food.
The disturbance erupted "all
at once."
Taylor now believes the two-
some "might have been
carrying something they didn't
want me to see" In their lug-
gage and paniced at the thought
that the officer might search
the luggage.
"One of the girls (the 17-year-
old) was much nicer than the
other," he remembers. "Idon't
believe she ever used any foul
language like the older girl."
DIFFERENT ENDING
The two Waco misses; who
were picked up at the western
edge of Crosbyton the previous
day, heard but could not see the
Thursday morning melee in-
volving the El Paso girls and
the deputy. Their parting Fri-
day (with their father) took a
"One of the girls hugged my
neck and said she appreciated
me being so nice. relates
Taylor, who has a grand-
daughter about their age.
