Christ was a city missionary, when he taught in Samaria. Christ was a Sunday school nus p ionary, when he opened up the Script¬ ures and set men to studying the Word of God. Christ was a children’s missionary, ■when he took them in his arms and blessed them. Christ was a missionary to the poor, when he opened the eyes of the blind beggar. Christ was a missionary to the rich, when he opened the spiritual eyes of Zaccheus. Even on the cross, Christ was a missionary to the robber, and his last command was the missionary com mission.—Amos R. Wells. A newspaper man has found the happiest man in the world and he lives in North Georgia, He has six fiddles, ten children, thirteen hounds, a deaf and dumb wife and a* moon¬ shine still that has never been spotted by the government.” Those financially interested in rais ing poultry and producing eggs in a commercial business way are vitally interested in the tariff imposed on eggs imported into the United States. Few people who keep hens or eat eggs realize what a big thing the egg in¬ dustry is. The United States produces about 2,000,000,0000 dozen eggs an¬ nually; but China, the largest egg producer in the world, produces more than 3,000,000,000 dozen. World-Wide Fame for Georgia Ralph T. Jones, writing in the At lanta Constitution, remarks that— It is to he hoped that the recent “Pecan Pageant” held at. Albany will, as it recurs from year to year, do as much to advertise Georgia as the “Peach Festival” at Fort Valley has done. Such events as this should help to permanently associate, in the mind of the world, the pecan with Geor gia, just as today all over the world the word “peach meuns Georgia peach." During a recent visit to England the writer tried hard to find as many points of mutual knowledge about Georgia as he could with all sorts and conditions of people in the old coun try. He found that almost everyone had heard of four things from Geor gia: *• Everything is Peaches Down in Georgia, the Stone Mountain Con federate monument, Frank Stanton’s immortal “Mighty Lak a Rose" and Joel Chandler Harris’ “Uncle Remus” stories. Practically every other fa mous Georgia product had to be ex plained and diagramed before Eng lishmen knew anything about it. BUSINESS WOMEN OF W. M. S. Miss Larinne Edwards was hostess to the Business Women of the Me thodist W. M. S. on last Tuesday night at the home of Mrs. W. B. Norton. After the reading of the minutets by the secretary and a re port by the treasurer, the Bible les son was given by Mrs. George Math ews, Sr., which was instructive and impressive. A rending by Miss Ruth Smith was enjoyed. After the jTrogram the hostess, assisted by Misses Emily and Lottie Norton served a fruit salad with punch. *- The Primitive Baptists of Union church, Crawford county, will cele brate their one hundredth anniversary ■with preaching and songs today, Thursday. A basket dinner will be spread. I Most men take pride in concealing their faults and using them on the sly. A SERMON ET i Unto your heavenly Father ever And through the risen Christ wants make known; To faithful souls there is no idle No perfect rest this side the white throne. 2 ’Tis true that, there is quietude of To ev’ry child of God, and peace found; The blessed Christ Who makes children whole Has seas of deepest grief for to sound. 3 ’Tis best that through His they should go, And from all dross bo refined; The fiercest flames are kindled by glow Of perfect love found in the vior’s mind. 4 It is not here we reach life’s goal; While on God’s footstool we toil and pray. A crown of life awaits each soul, A heritage that shall not pass W. C. GOLD By L. D. STEARNS There’s a golden sun; there are stars; There is moonlight’s golden 1 cheer; There is golden wheat, and the golden glow, And buttercups, gold and dear. There are butterflies, gay, with gold¬ en wings; There are golden autumn days; There are echoes of golden melody, Along life's devious ways. There are golden candles and golden lights, That beckon and draw one home; There are golden arc-lights nlong the streets, With greetings for all who roam. There are fleeting hours winging through each day, With moments of purest gold; a golden purpose is woven through life, As its sum of years is told. —Exchange.
