Griffarea
For several days now we’ve been hinting around about
Griffarea. It is a combination of the words “Griffin” and
“area”. It is Griffin and Spalding County and wherever
else people live who come to Griffin to shop, do business,
consult a professional man, or for some other purpose.
Griffin itself has been the center of a rich trading section
for years, but this area has been without a name. From now
on the Griffin Daily News will call it Griffarea.
In Atlanta they call municipalities on its fringes and
those a little further away like Griffin “satellite cities”.
Here in Griffin we consider people who live nearby as
friends and neighbors, not “satellites”.
The Griffin Daily News has urged for years that people
who live here trade here. There are a few times, though,
that they cannot obtain the goods or services they desire
locally. Then they must go elsewhere. Likewise, we urge the
people of Griffarea to trade at home, but when they need
things available only in a somewhat larger place, we urge
them to come to Griffin.
What are the boundaries of Griff area? They are impos
sible to define. They extend to wherever people live who
come here to see a doctor or a dentist, to buy something
in a Griffin store, to receive treatment in the local hospital.
The Griffin Daily News’ circulation area includes large
parts of Pike County, Lamar County, Henry County and
particularly Hampton, and parts of Butts County and
Fayette County as well as all of Griffin and Spalding
County. This is the heart of Griffarea.
Already Griffin is the center of such cooperative en
deavors as the Flint River Regional Library, the public
health district, the employment office, Social Security
office, insurance companies and other public and private
endeavors which serve nearby counties.
From where we sit, there seems no doubt that Griffarea
will continue to grow, to develop and to prosper. It’s time
it had a name. So now it has one.
People:
The Problem Kids
A population expert has stated publicly what many an
individual specimen of our booming population has
thought to himself:
People would be better off if it weren’t for people!
The population explosion is all very well for business,
Dudley Kirk, director of the Population Council in New
York, told a North American Wildlife Conference in San
Francisco recently, but it does have its drawbacks.
The beauty of California, for instance, said Mr. Kirk,
has been “smothered by smog, scarred by bulldozers,
corroded by subdivisions, and put out of bounds by fear
of fire and trampling human feet.”
Yet, he pointed out, all this unpleasantness has brought
profits and a good living to many people.
It adds up to a tough problem—especially since humans
haven’t come up so far with a really effective plan to stop
humans from producing humans so prodigiously.
It brings to mind the oft-quoted discovery that most of
the people who favor birth control have already been bom.
It also proves again that people are more capable than
anyone of outsmarting themselves.
How Silly
Can They Get?
RICHMOND, NEWS LEADER
On April 1, we commented editorially on an incident
that took place in Great Britain, when the services of 10
men from six unions were required to replace a one-inch
button that fell from a telephone switchboard.
Evidently, such union antics are the order of the day for
the British. United Press International now reports that, in
Windscale, England, officials at the Windscale Atomic
Energy Plant are having some difficulty because of a cob
web which has been hanging from a plant ceiling, ten feet
from the floor, for more than a year.
Washing crews have refused to remove the cobweb, be
cause their labor contract limits their work to seven feet
from the floor. The plant officials then called in painters,
who said they would paint over the web, but only if all
the furniture in the room were removed.
One office wag suggested that perhaps the best method
for getting rid of the web might lie in setting off a very
small nuclear blast, but, at last report, the cobweb still
was hanging from the ceiling. Maybe in a year or so, plant
officials might conclude that a mushroom cloud might not
be such a bad idea, after all.

MY A
ANSWER Eg]
Created Evil
What I would like to know is:
who created evil? This has bo
thered me for a long time. If
God created it, then why does
he hold man responsible for sin
ning? Please answer. P.L.
God elected to make men free.
In the midst of the garden He
put the tree of good and evil
(not likely an apple tree), and
told man he was free to eat, but
that the consequences of choos
ing evil instead of good would
be tragic. The presence of evil
is evidence of God’s sovereign
ty, and His reaction to man’s
wrong choices. If God condoned
evil, if He winked at sin, and if
there was no punishment for it,
then the uniqueness of man’s
free spirit would not exist. Hell
is an extension of man’s rebel
lion and his alienation from God.
Freedom of choice carries with
it a fearful responsibility. Every
day we see people suffering for
choices. God doesn’t make them
sin, He simply has given them
the power to go against the gr
ain of the universe, if they so
choose. But this doesn't mean
that God is pleased by these evil
choices. On the other hand, they
are repugnant to Him, because
they cause man to drift from his
true goals and destiny. Anything
that mars His crowning crea
tion, man, causes God to grieve.
The Bible says, “It is not his
will that any should perish”, but
He can’t keep man from doing
wrong, nor can He remove the
suffering that comes through wr
ong doing —for He has made
man a responsible person. . .
however He provided a wonder
ful remedy. The Cross of
Christ! Man can now be forgi
ven.

Thought For Today
A thought for the day—

said: “It is better to risk
saving a guilty person than to
condemn an innocent one.”
