IN MEMORY
In loving memory of our dear
friend and Brother, Mr. George E.
Wallis who departed this life Jan.,
22, 1941, age 69 years. To know him
was to love him.
He had been a member and a deacon
of the Cross Roads Baptist Church.
The church he loved for a number of
years, and lived a true Christian life
until God called him home to Heaven.
Words cannot express the loss of our
church, and we cannot understand
why God saw fit to call from our
midst one that was such a help in
leading the world to Christ. He be
lived in prayer and often said “The
Lord has not forgot to us, we have
just forgot to pray.” George wanted
everyone saved, there are still multi
tudes of peoplpe in distress of body,
mind and soul and the responsibility
for their core and relief rests upon
the Church and individual Christians
like George.
A act of the Church
Committee: C. C. Martin, Isacc
Bennett, Henry Chastine.

About 50 percent of all United
States farm people live in 13 southern
states, but they receive only 30 per
cent of the national income.
Beef from cattle fattened on grass
“ripens” as well as beef from cattle
on grain, and it is just as juicy and
flavorsome.
If the United States ground and
baked all its wheat in the next year,
there would be more than 1,900 loaves
for every family in the natino. The
average family aets about 300 loaves

An Appeal To All Users
Of Electric
Light, Heat and Power
The national defense program calls for an
all-time high in production. Production of raw
materials, aluminum, steel and finished products
must go forward on an unheard-of scale.
The Southeastern area is a large contributor
to this defense production. In addition, the area
has been chosen for the location of many Army
cantonments, air training bases, munitions
plants and other defense facilities.
These defense activities require a great vol
ume of power. The continued supply of this
power throughout the emergency must not be
interrupted or curtailed. This year an unprece
dented drought threatens that power supply
throughout the Southeast.
Large additions to power supply for the re
gion are now under top speed construction by
TVA and private companies. They are nearing
completion. But, until these new sources of sup
ply are actually delivering power, and especially
during the next few months, it is imperative in
the interest of defense that power be carefully
conserved.

Even if normal rainfall should end the
drought, you will still be asked not to waste
power. For every kilowatt hour you conserve at
this time adds that much to the nation’s capac
ity for defense.
The Federal Power Commission and the public
and private power agencies in the area are co
operating on improved arrangements for inter
change between the several systems in order to
make every potential kilowatt hour available.
But this may not prove enough to meet the
emergency.
The undersigned governmental agencies and
companies, therefore, appeal to the public to
join immediately in a voluntary campaign o£
economy in the use of electricity. Such economy
of use is a patriotic necessity.
If the arrangements for interchange of power
are successful in making larger supplies of elec
tricity available and the response to this appeal
is sufficiently general and spontaneous, further
drastic curtailment may be long postponed, or
perhaps, forestalled altogether.
Your cooperation is needed.

To conserve the soil, farmers earn
AAA payments for planting a larger
part of their acreage formerly in soil
depleting, to soil-conserving crops
and for carrying out soil-building
practices.
A large part of the value of good
cotton which comes from planting of
pure seed can be destroyed within
a few minutes by improper ginning.
