by Berthalee Brayles H e r e is a n o t h e r demonstration of what alcohol does when it is clipping from a central Pennsylvania paper tells the story. A boy of eleven, an only child, was walking along the sidewalk in front of a school building on his way to the library. His mother had told him, “Be careful of automobiles,” and so he was keeping close to the fence in the middle of the block. Suddenly a car swept alongside. There was a swaying from side to side, a lurch and a crash. The car crossed the curb, crossed the sidewalk, rebounded into a pole. In the path of its mad skid it crushed the boy and in a few minutes he was dead. The boy is beyond further suffer­ ing or danger. Attention may now shift to the wielder of the deadly weapon which left this mother childless. When the car crashed, a young man sprang from the driver’s seat and ran, throwing away a bottle of liquor as he went. He was chased and cap­ tured by bystanders and without hesi­ tation told the story to the police. Still in his early twenties, the driv­ er was father of two children. He was a working man. That morning he had drawn his pay. 'Pay-day meant a cele­ bration and he set out to make the rounds of beer shops in his town. The young man was a steady con­ tributor to the liquor revenue of which our budget-makers boast, for he said he got drunk once or twice a month. As a set-off to what he has paid to the state in revenue there must be reckoned: One smashed automobile One trial The district attorney asked for an indictment for second-degree murder. (If the man is convicted.) The expense of feeding, housing, guarding a prisoner. The care of the two children, de­ prived of their father’s support. A lot of men will have to drink a lot of liquor to pay enough revenue to balance these items of cost And more liquor will mean more losses. Still there are those who argue that the state liquor business pays. There is a sorrowing mother with­ out a child; there are two little chil­ dren without a father, but THE STATE GOT THE REVENUE.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LITERATURE THAT IS DOCTRINALLY SOUND

Loyalty to the_truths of the historic Christian Gos­ pel is the paramount aim and major strength of Regular Baptist Press Sunday School Literature.

Our literature is evangelistic In its appeal, urging the sinner to repent and_ believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is missionary in intent, stressing our Lord’s command to go and preach the gospel to every crea­ ture. You -will find it to be Baptistic, written by bom again, Bible-believ- ing Baptists. Baptist distinctives are woven into our whole-counsel curriculum. Presently, many non- Baptist churches are using our lit­ erature. Why? They desire a lit­ erature with a definite doctrinal approach. " Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee" (1 Tim. 4:16). Here is the reason we stress doctrine—God has command­ ed it. Our curriculum includes six de­ partments—Beginner through Adult —and is graded departmental^ for most effective presentation.
