This Week*s Editorial
By A Woman Especially For Women
Stretching Bread
Into Cake, Pie
Men continue to be considered the primary bread
winners in American family life. But we women are the
front-line soldiers in the war against inflation. The woman
in his life still is expected to stretch the bread money
enough to buy cake, and some pie in the sky, too. So here
are a few suggestions which some women have found useful
in stretching their budgets:
• Particularly here in Griffin, so many women are gull
ible about shopping in Atlanta, especially at “big sales.”
Consider shopping expenses, transportation, parking,
meals, baby sitters and the value of the extra time and
energy required. (Your time IS worth something, isn’t it?)
Add all this to the prices you pay in the city. Nine times
out of ten, you’d save money by shopping at home!
• Plan weekly menus. Then shop through the grocery
ads in your hometown newspaper. You’ll find “specials”
at various stores. List them before you leave home. Many
women find that when prices are cheapest, quality is high
est because it is the “season” for particular food items.
• Discuss fees with doctors, dentists, and other pro
fessional people before they perform services. Then at
least you won’t be caught by surprise with a bill much
larger than expected. And you won’t be worrying before
you get it about how much it will be.
• Establish and maintain a good credit rating by pay
ing bills promptly and by meeting installment payments on
time. With a good rating, you’ll get favorable considera
tion when you need it the most. And everybody does need
some special consideration some time or other.
Yes, it is difficult to stretch the breadwinner money into
cake and pie, but many women have found these suggest
ions help in doing it.

Article On Maddox
Is In Poor Taste
THE SMYRNA HERALD
The dear ol’ Saturday Evening Post, pursuing an appa
rent longtime vendetta against the South, climaxes some
thing or other with a dull and boring renewal of its distaste
for Georgia in a current article on Governor Lester Mad
dox.
The governor, asked to comment referred to the piece
as “crude and even rude at times.” He stated it mildly.
The article is a rehash of many sensational, mud-raking
news stories featured during the troubles at the Pickrick
restaurant, most of which were better left unwritten. Mad
dox’ “press” at the time was scarcely friendly. In fact, it
was downright hostile. Much that he said or did was twist
ed to fit the devices and images of his detractors.
Now that Georgia, in her own peculiar way, has chosen
Maddox for The Leader, the Post has gone into a state of
shock. That often happens when periodicals try to show a
people “the right way” only to have such advice rejected.
To the Post, all Georgia leaders are stereotyped carica
tures of politicians who must be bracketed as this type or
that type. They rarely are people, but rather figures out of
sardonic cartoons to cause amusement — often wry, but
never warm and human.
This attitude by an apparent anti-South national maga
zine may explain the plight such “media” encountered in
the last several decades. A wrong guess on a vital poll was
only the last straw for The Literary Digest. Colliers went
down the drain after heroic struggles to stay afloat. Others
have folded because of editorial and business misdirection.
It would not surprise (or displease) us too much to see The
Post join them in limbo. Its financial reverses and manager
ial shakeups are symptons that something went haywire
somewhere. The Post, since it changed its editorial policy
some time back, has been involved in a number of law
suits growing out of articles it printed. The most notable is
the Wally Butts libel case in which a jury’s guilty verdict
remains under court appeal.
Os late years, the magazine, to us, has lost it bright and
interesting shine. Once we read it with interest. Now we
we glance through, riffling the pages, to look it over in a
half-hearted way. The Post has had it, and ol’ Ben Frank
lin must be turning over for the umpteenth time.
Griffin is a diversified community. We have textile
mills, flour mills and rumor mills.

Generally speaking, there are three kinds of people: (1)
those who try to keep things on an even keel and who are
considerate of the feelings of others; (2) those who try to
keep things stirred up and consider nobody’s feelings but
their own; and (3) the remaining 98 percent of us who are
a combination of (1) and (2).

MY A
answer rn
Happiness
What is happiness and how
does one find it? G.A.
The dictionary says simply:
"Happiness is a state of well be
pleasurable satisfaction if his
Since dictionaries are written
by men, and men can be in er
ror, this definition is a bit mis
leading. A thief in good health
after a successful robbery might
have feelings of well being and
pleasurable satisfaction is his
conscience was sufficiently dea
dened.
The fact is: there are two
kinds of happiness: temporal
happiness and eternal hapiness,
or to put it another way: mater
ial happiness and spiritual hap
piness. We experience material
happiness when we get a pro
motion, a good grade on exams,
or a surprisingly expensive
Christmas gift. There is nothing
sinful about this happiness, just
as long as we do not confuse it
with spiritual happiness. Mater
ial happiness is shortlived, fleet
ing. like a beautiful rose so fr
esh in the morning but so wilt
ed by nightfall.
Spiritual happiness is some
thing else. It endures affliction,
adversity, trouble, and bereave
ment. It says with Job, “Though
he slay me yet will I praise
him ” It is abiding. It does not
fade, nor ebb with the changing
tide.
There is a God-shaped void in
each of our hearts. Unless that
void is filled we will be restless
and troubled. Christ said many
times, “Be of good cheer.” He
alone can bring eternal joy to
our hearts. He imparts real hap
piness.

of these is love. (I Corinthians
13:13, ASV)
PRAYER: Dear Christ, help
us and our companions to find
life’s deepest and truest happi
ness through a more intimate
and constant companionship with
Thee. Help us to make Thee
the dominant leader of our thou
ghts and of our daily lives. In
Thy spirit we pray. Amen.
Thought For Today
A thought for the day —
British chaplain Jeremy Taylor
once said "No man ever
repented that he rose from the
table sober, healthful and with
his wits about him.”
WORLD ALMANAC
FACTS
At an altitude of 12,500
feet, Lake Titicaca, be
tween Peru and Bolivia, is
the world’s highest lake
navigable by steamboat.
The first steamboat to navi
gate on it was the Yaravi,
built in Scotland in 1862.
In that year, the ship sailed
from England to the Peru
vian coast, says The World
Almanac. There it was dis
mantled, carried up the
mountains and then reas
sembled on the shore of
Lake Titicaca.
