Davis At South Henderson Many people are attending the South Henderson revival this week to listen to the splendid sermons de livered by Rev. J. W. Davis, pastor of the North Henderson Baptist church. Rev. L. B. Reavis, who con ducts the song service beginning at 7 45, favors the congregation each evening with a special number which Is always highly pleasing to every one. The sermon last evening was found in Luke 24 40. “And when He had thus spoken He showed them Hia hands.’’ Jesus said this as He showed His crucified nail-scarred hands to His disciples. The hands of Jesus were not soft and tender as they are often pic ured. but they were toil-worn hands, as the Master spent 30 years at the -arpenter’s bench. Jesus knows how to ymp&thize with His people ip every circumstance of life. The hands of Jesus are God’s love letter to a lost world. As we look at hos% nail-scarred hands we can get in idea of the great love of God for a human soul that is lost. God will aever force you to take Jesus. He will come and reign in that heart of yours. >r he won’t come at all. Those nuil >carred hands want to hold that soul and life of yours in them. The hands of Jesus are healing hands. Jesus healed those that were ick while he was on this earth. If Jesus is your Saviour, he 13 your Bright and Morning Star and the Lily jf the alley. The hands of Jesus wish o come and touch soul that is .ick because of sin. and make that ;oul well in the sight of God. The hands of Jesus are pierced lands. They differ from human lands, and they shall always be dif erent. His hands received those scar* »ecaus« the Son of God fought back he flames of hell for us. That is why hey are pierced. The hands of Jesus ir saving hands. The saddest picture that can be lainted is. Jesus standing with tears unning down his- checks, and peo ple with their backs to Him while he whole country is in ruin and sin. The people going away from Jesus, ind he is saying to them, “Ye would not come unto me that ye might have life.” The sweetest picture represents the lon of God standing with the people ooking up to Him and making their vay to him. Jesus Is saying, “Come into me all ye that labor and are Vavy laden and I will give you rest.” It was announced iast evening that services would be held at the South Henderson Baptist church again this »vening ,and a very cordial welcome is extended to any and all who wish to attend.—Reported.

ANNUAL AUDITS OF ■ COUNTY ARE MADE Expert account an ts-eof the Walter Cham ley Company o t Charlotte Are now engaged in> making the annual audit of the books and accounts' of Vance county, including the school funds. The two accountants assumed No Typhoid Reported In County But Some Nearby —* Nearly 2,000 Persons Have Taken Treatment Thus Far This Summer, Dr. White R eports; First Rounds Com pleted and Other Clinics Are Being Arranged While there have been no typhoid cases reported In VAnce county this year ,the disease does exist just over the line in Franklin county, and Dr. C. H. White, health officer, today Is sued a further appeal to citlxens to avail themselves of the* free anti typhoid serum immunization so as to make sure there will be no epidemio here. Dr. White has been engaged for .several weeks In holding clinics in many parts of the county, and the first series has largely completed. Other engagements for Anics are al ready being arranged, However, and regular visits to these places will be made, the schedule to be announced in a few days, so that all who wish to avail themselves of the treatment may do so. The health officer estimated that nearly 2,000 persons had been treated already since his campaign for the summer began. He expects poe dbly that many more before the sum mer ends. Ihe last case or typhoid in Vance county was reported last September, according to Dr. White, and there were no deaths from the disease last summer nor for several years, and he is anxious that the record be main tained, and promises the public that it can be if the people will respond to th eappeal to avail themselves of the treatment offered. Dr. James M. Parrott, of Raleigh, secretary of the State Board of Health, and State Health officer, has issued a warning to the people of the State ‘hat typhoid is more prevalent this year than for some years, and points to preventable illness in these times, with its necessary expense, would be a calamity. The following statement was made by Dr. Parrott: Dr. J. M. Parrott, State health of ficer, has just issued a statement say ing. "There have been two and one half times as many cases of typhoid fever in North Carolina during the first five months of 1932 as during the corresponding period in 1931. ‘lt is coming like a thief in the night" unexpectedly and without warning. their duties last Monday morning, and are expected to be occupied with the task several more days yet before completing the job. THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 1932 In fact, typhoid fever is increasing so rapidly and In such widely dis tributed sections that the State De ipartment of Health is deeply con cerned over the matter" "This concrn becomes all the more great," continues Dr. Parrott, "be cause the funds of the State Depart ment are very limited and the pro blem of tracing out and finding each case is more than ordinarily a local one. I earnestly and firmly advise all people to be vaccinated and consult their doctors and local health services concerning the proper sanitation of their water, milk and food supplies." This is the first step in finding the answer to the question “How many people shall we allow to die front typhoid fever?” Dr. Parrott goes on to say, "I am definitely of the opinion that typhoid fever has not assumed anything that approximates the proportions of an epidemic, but I do feel that the situa tion is fraught with real danger, and that we must not fail to keep up our high standard of sanitation through out the State. In 1930 the death rate from typhoid in five of our cities which have a standard milk ordinance and well-regulated water supply, and in which there is a reasonable amount of vaccination against typhoid fever, was 2.7 and that,, too, in face of the fact that those cities are medical cen ters to which typhoid cases gravitate and which receive the ‘credit' for the death. During the same year, 1930 the death rate from typhoid in five rural counties which do not have standard milk ordinances and well regulated water supplies, and in which vaccination has not been as thorough as it ought, the death rate was 12.7." Concluding, the State health officer states, "Typhoid fever is a disease which can easily be prevented by a simple procedure—immunization. I take this occasion to urge our public officials to remember that, while sick ness is always a serious matter, it is a real calamit during this depressldrt. and that it is always much mofe"im portant to have ea low death rate than a low tax rate." Social progress cannot be forced from without; It must wait for de velopments within.
