WASHINGTON—Sen. Charles
H. Percy, on rumors that 50,000
to 100,000 more men may be
needed in the Vietnam war:
"I think that matter ought to
be made a matter of public
discussion right now. I don’t
think it ought to be left just to
the executive branch to carry
us to this next level of
escalation.”
CHICAGO—Gov. Otto Kerner
surveying the $25 million
damage wreaked on northern
Illinois by tornadoes which
struck without warning and
claimed 53 lives:
“It will be necessary to take
another look at the state’s
warning system.”
NEW YORK—Pulitzer Prize
winning UPI White House
reporter Merriman Smith noting
the abuse and vilification hurled
at President Johnson during
recent anti-Vietnam demonstra
tions:
‘‘This is not enlightened social
change, or legitimate dissent or
revolution. It is anarchy.”

A Good Idea
For Georgia
Applicants for admission to college in recent years have
found the procedure difficult, expensive and confusing.
Most colleges are crowded, so it has become standard
for seniors at Griffin High and other schools to apply to
several. They must send along a required fee which will not
be returned if the senior is accepted. The idea is to ask ad
mission to several in hope of getting into one. A particular
ly qualified student may be accepted by all the colleges to
which he applies. Obviously, he can’t enter but one, so at
least temporarily he takes up a place that could go to some
body else. And he forfeits application fees to all except the
one place he does go.
On the other hand, an applicant may be rejected by all
the colleges he hopes to enter while other good schools to
which he did not apply have vacancies.
Awaiting word from the college is an anxious time for
high school students and their parents. And waiting word
from the students themselves is confusing at best for the
admissions officers who have no way of knowing whether
a student who is accepted will actually attend.
Here is an idea for Georgia which we believe would
work well in the various colleges in the University System,
all of which are tax-supported. Also it could work with the
private colleges if they band together. It comes from the
Midwest where 10 colleges decided to allow a student to
make a single application, pay one fee, and list the colleges
in order of preference. The colleges can process the appli
cations without duplication and assign acceptable students
as close to their preference as possible. Also it can elimi
nate vacancies that might not be filled in some of the
schools.
Makes sense, doesn’t it?
He Hasn’t
Read The Book
A preacher in Washington state wants to take “Huckle
berry Finn” out of the hands of high school students in
his town because it contains the word “nigger.” We don’t
like the word either, but it was in common use when Mark
Twain wrote the book.
That the American classic depicts Jim, the Negro run
away slave, as an honorable, sacrificing human being has
not entered into the reverend’s argument. He has no way
of knowing if Mark Twain hung a mantle of nobility upon
Jim’s shoulders.
He says he hasn’t read the book.

This Will Be
Georgia’s Year
ANDERSON, S. C., DAILY MAIL
This is Georgia’s time to shine!
For years and years the state across the Savannah has
been known as “the peach state.”
That statement was even stamped on car license plates,
although as a matter of fact South Carolina’s peach crop
has exceeded the total Georgia production for a decade or
so.
But this year Georgia will come into its own again!
Last week’s freezing temperatures seemingly wiped out
at least two-thirds of the state’s potential peach production.
Georgia orchards were damaged little, if any at all, by
the cold.
So come this summer Georgians may once again pound
their chests and reclaim—for one year at least—the title
to being “The Peach State” of the South.
Happy bragging boys!
It probably won’t happen again for a long, long time.

“The wheel was man’s greatest invention, until he got
behind it.” — Hamilton, Texas, Herald-News
A bill pending in Congress would make more U. S. holi
days fall on a Monday so folks could enjoy three days at
a time. Judging by what happens on the highways on Labor
Day weekends and other “long holidays”, it would end
the population explosion.

MY
ANSWER M
Win Parents
I’m a teenage Christian with
unchristian parents. I want to
win them, but they refuse to lis
ten to me. What do you sug
gest? W.R.
First of all, I suggest patience
with your parents. They will
want to be sure that your ex
perience with Christ isn’t just a
passing fancy, something that
may wear off. Young people are
changeable, and they probably
think that you will “get over”
this, just like young people pass
from fad to fad.
Second, let Christ so possess
you that they will see a differ
ence in you. Young people tend
to be dissatisfied with their
parents, and you will never win
them if you have a condescend
ing attitude toward them, and
seem to be superior to them.
Third, pray for them. They
may seem to turn a deaf ear to
your testimony, but they are
hearing more than you think.
Prayer can change all this, and
if you are faithful the time will
come when their attitude will
change.
But this won’t happen in a
week, in a month, or perhaps
not, in a year. God is never in
a hurry, but His Spirit is always
at work. And remember the Bi
ble says, “Be not weary in well
doing; for in due season ye shall
reap, if ye faint not.”

But I say unto you. . . Love
your enemies. (Luke 6:27)
PRAYER: O God, forgive us
all bitterness and hatred. Help
us to love our enemies, even as
Jesus taught us to do and as He
did. By Thy grace strengthen
us. In the Savior's name we
ask. Amen.
Thought For Today
A thought for the day —
American poet Ralph Waldo
Emerson once said: “Every
sweet has its sour, every evil its
good.”
WORLD ALMANAC
FACTS
The game of golf, which
was invented in Scotland, is
known to have been popu
lar in that country about
1440, says The World
Almanac. In fact, the game
became much too popular
with the people to please
King James 11. In 1457, he
made it unlawful for any
one to play at “golfe.” Ac
cording to the king, the
people could better use
their leisure time practic
ing archery.
