Volume 46. State Troopers Must Be Big, Versatile ATHENS, Ga. —• It takes more than a uniform, military bearing, and a patrol car to make a state trooper. It takes a big man, well-trained in his job, who can handle all sorts of people and situations from the smooth looking blonde doing 85 to a car load of drunks out for a joy ride. That is what 26 newcomers to the Georgia State Patrol forces are learning here this summer in the intensive 17th Patrol School in ses sion at the University of Georgia. Completion of the rigorous 5- week curriculum is on the must list of things a patrolman must do before he can become a full-fledged trooper. The school is his chance to become thoroughly acquainted with his new job, one which he learns will never be the same from one day to the next. The “rookie” patrolmen meeting at the University are not begin ners in the true sense of the word. All of them have been employed for a year or more as drivers li cense examiners, and some have already had six or seven months “on the road." But for all of them, the Training School is the place for stocking up on information which will serve them well during the months to come. In classes on Georgia history, geography, and government they are learning the answers to quest ions most likely tto be asked by tourists. In jujitsu and first aid they learn how to look out for themselves and other people altho with radio communication the chances are tfiey will seldom need either of these skills. In accident investigation classes tthey get down tto the bare facts of their jobs, while in public speaking they learn to give a speech on safety. Captain R. V. Richards, director of training for the Georgia State Patrol and commander of school, points out that the most important thing a trooper learns in the school is how to control people and traf fic. “A trooper must learn to be cour teous and reasonable, but firm,” he said. He must learn to give posi tive directions in traffic, to control a mob or a riot, to protect him self, and to aid the motorist. Captain Richards pointed out that all state patrolmen are big men. The smallest among them must be 5 feet 10 inches tall and weigh 160 pounds. He must also be young, the age for a beginner being 21—35. The patrolmen in school at the University are getting a taste now of the rigors of trooper life. They march to meals in close-order drill and spend all day from early morn ing until after dinner at night in classes.. Only the week-ends, from Saturday noon until Sunday night, are free. One thing on their schedule is something these ex-drivers license examiners are used to. That is a drivers test one which they take themselves rather than one they give, so rigid it makes those given to ordinary drivers pale in com parison. But afer all, Captain Richards commented, if anyone on the road should know how to drive, it is the trooper. NOTICE I regret that I can no longer af ford to close my office practically every day, or else work far into the night, in order to treat patients at their homes for the fees which I have eben charging. Therefore, after September 15, 1955, there will be an increase in charges for all my home visits. I wish to suggest that the way to avoid paying the fees charged for "outside work" is to go to some physician’s office when medical care is needed—ex cept for those VERY RARE in stances when travel is actually not advisable or is impossible due to the condition of the patient.

Are The Churches Failing? Too many churches are wrapped up in themselves. They are doing some things for their group but they don’t reach out far enough with their good works. Jesus said. [ “By this shall all men know that I you are my disciples if ye have love one for the other.’’ Every church should examine themselves and see if they have been true to the boys and girls, the young people, and the adults in the community. Every church should see to it that they join with the other churches of their de nomination in sending help to peo ple throughout the world. Jesus said, “Go into all the* world Preach .... Teach .... Baptize.... as well as heal. There are many fine boys and girls; yooung men and young wo men who have ceased attending church services because the church es do not present a challenge and an opportunity to them to develop and grow in the service of the Master. The members of the church es, many times, are too healf-heart ed and indifferent toward the teach ing of the Bible and the winning of others to the Saviour. To those people who see these things that are wrong with the churches. Will you come on into the work of the church and try to correct the deficiencies. If a large enough group will demand more participation in the work of the churches, much progress can be made. Young people’s organiza tions; such as the B. T. U. and W. M. U. organizations; and Daily Vacation Bible Schools etc; could be used to give young Christians work to do and a greater challenge to give themselves to the Master’s service. How the world needs gen uine Christians at home, faithful missionaries abroad. The hope of the world is Jesus and those who love and serve him. Just do our best to make the work of the church attractive to young people. Loyalty to Jesus Christ is what we need more than anything else in the world. Jesus never fails. W. R.

Yes, The Co-operative Program Is Scriptural SCRIPTURAL IN ITS PRINCI PLES OF ADMINISTRATION ! 1. No human magnates or dicta-j tors to manage it. In 3 John wej see Diotrephes "Vho loveth to' have the preeminence among them! ....prating against us with wicked I words." Men like him were “prat ing against” John who was humb-j ly leading as superintendent of the mission work in Asia (state). Dio trephes was against the mission-1 aries sent out by John <v. 10). j 2. Leaders (secretaries) led byj the Holy Spirit and chosen by the! churches administer the affairs of | the Co-operative Program. Peter! and John were the superintend- j ents of the work among the Jews: Paul and Barnabas of the Work among the Gentiles# (Gal. 2:9). This arrangement was decided on under leadership of the Holy Spirit at that first convention held in Jerusalem. 3. Fraternal co-operation among the churches and workers is the basic principle of operation. This is the New Testament principle. That was the principle decided on at that first New Testament con vention. “James and Cephas and John gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, % that we should ggo unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision (Jews)" (Gal. 2: 9). These leaders led by the Spirit, co-operated in the spirit of fraternal fellowship. So do our churches, pastors, mis sionaries, secretaries. “For we are God’s fellow-workers” (1 Cor. 3:9). 4. Systematic contributions from the churches to support the pro gram. The Co-operative Program seeks through the Every-Member Canvass each year, led by churches and pastors, to provide the funds for promoting evangelism, missions schools, orphanages, and hospitaals. Is this scriptural? “Bring ye the whole tithe into the storehouse., and prove me now herewith, saith Jehovah of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it” (Mai. 3: 10). "Upon the first day of the week (our Sunday) let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come’’ (1 Cor. 16: 2). Conclusion: Now, fellow-Baptists 'everywhere, in country and hamlet in town and city, since this Coop erative Program is scriptural in its objectives, agencies, and principles of administration, ought we not, one and all, to back it with our prayers and money? Everything we are commanded by our Lord to do is included in this plan of working together.. It distributes to each cause or agency according to its importance and its relative needs. Lt gives every Baptist and every church a chance to have some part every month in the whole program of our Master. Safe, sane, scriptur al, and economical, it has already brought greater good to our Bap tist cause than any other plan ever used. Soil Conservation News Forsyth County Raeford Brown, Woodland Man agement Specialist, spent one day last week in the county discussing the latest in woodland manage ment.
