Visitors Praise
City Os Griffin
The Griffin Babe Ruth team didn’t go far in the South
eastern Regional Tournament here last week but the feeling
among the hundreds of visitors was that Griffin was the
real winner—not the baseball team, but the citizens of
Griffin.
Baseball fans, who are known for expressing their honest
opinions, tossed accolades at the Griffin Recreation De
partment so fast that Grady McCalmon, director, and his
staff couldn’t acknowledge them.
The facilities, the operation of the tournament, the um
piring and everything else connected with the Southeastern
drew favorable comments.
Jim Bowen, Alabama Babe Ruth Director, summed up
the general feeling when he called the tournament here
“the very best I have ever attended.”
The praise made recreation officials feel their work was
appreciated.
However, the thing that made them poke out their
chests with pride was when visitors called Griffin “the
friendliest town we have ever seen.”
The father of one player said people here should be
proud. “I can remember when my hometown had this kind
of spirit. It doesn’t have it any more,” he said.
Another said he would like to live in Griffin.
The parents of one player wrote the Griffin Daily News
that the boys and parents had such a good time here they
hated to leave. The writer said the principal winners were
the kind, generous people of Griffin.
The Griffin Recreation Department, Griffin Babe Ruth
League and Griffin Babe Ruth Auxiliary all deserve a pat
on the back for the favorable impression they made on the
visitors.

Talmadge Lays
A Rumor To Rest
Senator Talmadge has branded a rumor going about
Georgia concerning the Social Security Amendment of
1967 as absolutely false.
The nimor says that the amendment contains provision
for paying welfare recipients with Social Security funds.
“Naturally,” Senator Talmadge says, “people became
very much alarmed and justifiably so. However, this bill,
H. R. 5710, as introduced, does not propose to pay welfare
recipients with Social Security funds and representations
to the contrary are false and misleading. These payments
are in a trust fund that can only be used for Social Security
benefits. Furthermore, the bill does not propose to permit
the Social Security Administrator to arbitrarily determine
a person’s benefits, nor is it conceivable that Congress
would ever entertain such a proposal. I am unalterably op
posed to converting the Social Security program into a
r , e s Y stem » an d I will oppose any such idea to do so.”
We re glad the Senator from Lovejoy has laid this
rumor to rest, and that he is watching out for any such she
nanigans.

100%

MY j
ANSWER I
God Unfair?
Is it true that resentfulness Is
away of saying that God in un
fair? d.L.
In counselling with many peo
ple I have discovered that many
people bear resentments toward
God. It crops out in such state
ments as: “God took my child
away from me”, or, “God has
put a terrible affliction upon
me.” God becomes a symbol for
cruel fate, and resentments build
up and erupt into cynicism.
It always seems parodaxical
to me that many people blame
God for their troubles, but never
thank Him for their blessings.
God, to them, becomes sort of
a "whipping boy” for all of life’s
adversities. When we substitute
our limited knowledge for God’s
infinite wisdom, we get oursel
ves in a state of mental and sp
iritual confusion.
Many people who go through
life carrying a sign of protest:
"God is unfair”, are merely
trying to shift the blame for
their own failures upon God. It
is their way of isolating them
selves from God and making ali
bis for not trusting Him. God to
them is suspect. He is a cruel
tyrant who punishes innocent
children and the helpless. Be
fore their lives are over their
own inadequacy will show them
that they have taken the wrong
attitude. When the prodigal son,
who bore this brand of resent
ments, “came to himself”, he
said, “I will arise and go to my
father.” That was the decision
that turned his misery into joy.
IO« TODAY FROM '\V'S

Rejoice with me; for I have
found my sheep which was lost.
(Luke 15:6)
PRAYER: O God, give us a
concern for those who sin again
st Thee and reject Thee. Help
us to show Thy love for them
and do all we can to win them to
Christ. For Thy glory and Jes
sus’ sake. Amen.
