State of the Union speech that the average citizen just
couldn’t soak it all up at one sitting. The President was at
his best on Vietnam.
• Why is the word "insurmountable” being used so
often by writers, commentators and, of course, by critics
of U. S. policy in referring to such problems as poverty,
Vietnam, inflation, internal strife and plain old immoral
ity? Hasn’t the United States run into things like this be

• Most men are sincerely sorry to see the football

who are still in a state of shock from the New Year grid

• How can so many apparently well-informed big

on around the world and how the United States is making
out in the picture? The man in the coffee shop and the

influenced as much by personal prejudice and political
leanings as by facts and logic.
• The Kennedy-Manchester book feud has won some

The Toll
Fire Takes
Fires killed approximately 12,100 people in the United
States during 1966 reports the National Fire Protection
Association. None of these was in Griffin, but one died in
a field fire in Spalding County.
This was an increase of 100 over the previous year’s
toll and equaled the record set in 1954.
Property destroyed by fire totaled an estimated $1.8
billion, a new all-time high.
Lives lost in dwelling fires totaled 6,500, the same as
for 1965. Almost a third of all fire victims in the home—
about 2,100—were children.

An Independent
Legislature
MACON NEWS
Theoretically, Georgia now has an independent legisla
ture. The members elected the speaker of the House and
the people elected the lieutenant governor, who presides in
the Senate.
In actual practice, the new governor will continue to
have considerable influence through his appointive powers
and his grasp of some of the purse strings. in
But a good start has been made. And the new era
legislative independence was exemplified in a graceful
speech by newly elected Speaker George L. Smith.
Mr. Smith struck just the right note of a combination of
humility, pride, gratitude and sincerity in accepting the
honor. a • •
"Hard work” is the watchword for the days to come,
Mr. Smith said. When anything new is started, such as a
truly independent legislature, the speaker noted, the ques
tion always is: Will it work?
The new speaker believes it will, and that the people
of Georgia will thereby benefit. We believe it can and will
work, too, and that the dedication and sincerity of speaker
George L. Smith of Swainsboro will have much to do with
its success.

Yours Is what we call a ‘dispo

courage you to know that the
finest Christians have wrestled
with similar problems. However,
you mustn’t measure yourself
by their weaknesses, but by
their strengths.
In my own experience, I have
found that when I become slack
in my devotional life that my
weaknesses begin to manifest
themselves. But when I take
time to let God speak to my
soul through the Scriptures, me
ditation and prayer, victory co
mes.
Salvation is free, but Chris
tian character is a matter of
discipline and development. It
is a day by day affair, not a
“once-and-for-all” event. My ad
vise to you is to set a time: ear
ly in the morning or late in the
evening, when you can quietly
steal away with God. Tell Him
your faults. This pleases Him
for He has said: “Confess your
faults. . . that you may be heal
ed.” As you spend time with
Him, you will find that this un
kindness which has harassed you
will be transformed Into kind
ness, and real strength will be
given you to overcome the temp
