:k The Testing Time
The last four years have been years
that have tried men’s souls ip this
section of the country. The sunshine
fellow has shrunk from the cold
touch of adversity. He has grumbled
and complained and fallen back in
despair. The men that have stood up
against the business adversities of
the past few years deserve the thanks
and esteem of their fellowmen. They
have held things together. '
Adversity, like hell, is not easy to
•conquer, yet we can have the conso
Jation of knowing the harder the
task, the more glorious the triumph.
We are emerging from the conflict,
A better and brighter day is dawning
for the real worker of the day. And
it will be a great day for those who
have endured the toil and the priva¬
tions of the past few years.
God knows how to put a proper
price on the blessings of life. The
things we obtain with little effort
are lightly esteemed. It is right
great temporal as well as spiritual
blessings come high.
This Piedmont section of Georgia
"has gone through the testing time.
We are coming out of it with

The says:
“A town that never has anything
to do in a public way is on the way
to the cemetery.
“Any citizen who will do nothing
for his town is helping to dig its
grave.
I A man that ‘cusses’ the town
furnishes the coffin.
“The man who is so selfish as to
have no time from his business to
give affairs is making the shroud.
“The man who is always pulling
back from any public enterprise
throws bouquets on the grave.
“The man who is so stingy as to
be howling hard times, preaches the
funeral and sings the doxology.

BUILD UP GEORGIA
Begin today, and do not wait
To build up Georgia, noble state.
With all her mines of wealth untold;
There is on earth no fairer land
Formed by the all-creative Hand
And crowned with gems of purer
An envoy Georgia makes of you;
Commands you to herself be true.
And represent the Lord’s estate.
The God Who gives you brawn
brain
Would have you climb life's
plane
Where ev’ry Georgian is great.
Then you will toil and pray for
The souls who do so can not err,
But compensated well shall be,
And pass the last, The Grand
When God His footstool shall renew,
And make His faithful children free.

Church Authority Rani
Along National Lino*
Authority In th« eastern orthodox
churches Is divided along national
lines. There Is u Russian church, a
Itumunlun church, a Greek church anti
so on, with primates, metropolitans or
patriarchs of their own nationality at
the head of each.
Four ofllces to which a great anil
ancient prestige attaches gre the patri
i nrebates of Constantinople, Alexandria
Antioch and Jerusalem, ami that of
the ecumenical patriarch of Constan
tinople has tlie most weight of all; his
Influence extends throughout the east¬
ern churches; though his authority
does not.
But the Russian church, for Instance,
Is a sister church to that of Constan¬
tinople and not at all a subsidiary.
Nor is this a result of recent events
In Russia, the autonomy of the Rus¬
sian orthodox faith dating to 1721.
Under the czars this was the es¬
tablished church. Soviet Russia has
disestablished it and appropriated cer¬
tain of its properties, and the govern¬
ment policy Includes a propaganda
against all religion. But any faith
whatever may be freely professed In
Russia, so far as Soviet law is con
cemed.—Cleveland Plain Dealer,

Moravian Church Ha*
School in Far North
At Makkovik, in the Ice-bound pen
, Insula of the North American continent
known as Labrador, a country where
one may travel hundreds of miles with¬
out seeing a human habitation, uud
where the temperature in winter is
often 60 degrees below zero, there Is
a boarding school kept by two Eng¬
lishwomen.
It is under the control of the Mora
vlan church; and is one of the most
remarkable as well as the least ac¬
cessible schools in the world. A mis¬
sion steamer goes out once a year with
goods for the Esklmoe, and on her last
trtp along the coaat, prior to her re¬
turn, she takes both Eskimo children
and the few white children available
to the Makkovik hoarding school.
v There they must remain until the
long winter Is over, for In such ter¬
rible cold, and with no conveyance
but dog-sledges, it is Impossible for
children to travel, That they are
happy goes without saying, and with
a gramophone, a piano, and a fine se¬
lection of lantern slides, as well as
an excellent library, the children get
not only a good education but also a
good time.

Insect* and Scientists
Scientists are making a special
study of animal and Insect life as
means of determining changes which
have taken place In the earth. The re¬

Islands were once connected. In
Jamaica, recently, they explored a
very ancient section of that
that has been above the sea for a long

which shelters Insect tribes of great
age. Tills discovery leads
to believe that animal life of that

of Haiti or Cuba, und that It

Roads And Agriculture
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, president of
the Georgia State College of Agricul¬
ture, in speaking of roads and agri¬
culture, says:
Good roads have a value to the
farmer above the economic advan¬
tages which may be listed, inasmuch
as they raise the standards of liv¬
ing by increasing his comforts and
adding to his conveniences.
. i A good road between the farm
house and some social and marketing
center may be placed in the same
class of comforts and conveniences
as a modern home equipped
modern conveniences, such as the t d-

U In addition to this advantage
which every farmer desires, good
roads have a value which may be
measured in dollars. It has been es¬
timated in Nebraska that it is worth
$147.00 a year to a farmer to have
his roads to market dragged after
every rain. Certainly it is worth
while for the farmer to see that his
earth roads are kept in condition for
year round traffic.
<« Good roads decrease cost of trans¬
portation by increasing the size of
loads and saving time in travel.
“Good roads decrease the mainten
ance cost of transportation equip-
ment, such as wagons, hamezt,
horses, autos and trucks.
“Good roads enable the farmer t®
reach the market quicker with their
goods and thus take advantage of
price advances.
U Good roads decrease the distance
from market at which truck garden*
ing and dairying may be profitably
engaged in, thus making possible a
greater diversity of farming at a dia*
tance from the marketing centers.
II Good roads insure better price*
for farm produce by bringing buyer*
to the farmers’ door or by increasing
the number of buyers whom he may
reach easily.” ‘
