P THE OLD GRAYP K. PbiUp Eiiis
El SOME .GOOD LAW0lawmaker^ of South Caro-"
B^Mtlon in the 1943 legislative body*>hyld at Columbia. Prohibitinir thesale of wine and beer from iatnrR^rday night until Monday morning JHPL j is a flne law. Every man from 18fco 80 years of age must fight or
t': work is a good law, and forhidKbP,AilV the display of- whiskey i n"windows, is a timely legislation.
Our lawmakers deserve tne conig^Ymendation of every citizen of thisstate, for they must have beendivinely inspired. Were it possi-1ble for me to be seated at the
^ next legislative session, 1 wouldoffer the following amendment:That boys from 16 years instead
Y;. of 18 be included. These 16 year.
olid bova are committing as manycrimes today as old men. and thestreets and highways should be '
cleared of them. The governmenthas thousands of plantations i nthis country uncultivated, a n d~these lazy boys should be forcedto ^ork on them to raise foodstuff lor the Army. Then I wouldpropose a new law that all chil;* *. dren from 7 to 11 years old b e
found at home after 8 o'clock i»thenight unless they arc withtheir_parents. I would enact a lawthat if any child" between those
. hn nn thp etrpgta wlnni» iifti'l'that hour, they would bt. whippedevery step of the way home/ andthe mother and father be given 25lashes each for allowing them toviolate this law.
THE CHURCH'SOPPORTUNITYThere never was a time in all
history when the church was challengedas it is today. Onc hastruthfully said, "when the worldis at its worst, the church shouldbe 8t its best." Men and womrivboys and girls "have never beenmore wicked than at this presentage. Modesty is a thing of tinpast, and cttrsing and swearinghay© taken theplace of prayer intheir lives. .You would be shockedto know the teen age 'boys and
E'rls 'high up in school and don'tiow the Lord's prayer to say
nothing "of-thc ten commandmentsJust fhp. other- day I passed a
group of boys going to" schoolwith a stack of books under their
" artns, and out cursing a band ofgangsters. Now those boys justas well be in some prison campsasschool houses, so far as thegood they will be to their~vaccT"No . bad. boys can bt> great men7'tU)le$a_they change, regardless oftheir >intelloctual qualification. Liquor.drinking and gambling seem
* to be the chief delight of t h e
young' people today. Seeminglyyouth i« doomed for destructionwithout a radical change. And anynumber of old people are lost.
11 world without end. And the quick*or.they get out of tl^ world the, better it will be for th<» young.The church is~thc only mediumthrough which this reform can
i*, . come, ana it snouid address itself.to the task, for if she failsGod's judgment on the world will
s be next.
