“Reality” is the subject of the
Lessorn-Sermon which will be read

The Golden Text is: “The coun

the thoughts of his heart to all
generations” (Psalms 33:11).
Among the citations which com
prise the Lesson-Sermon is
the following from the Bible:
“Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard
neither have entered into the
heart of man, the things which
God hath prepared for them that
love him” (I Cor. 2:9).
The Lesson-Seimon also includes
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, “Sci- i
ence and Health with Key to
the Scriptures” by Mary Baker
Eddy: “The crude creations of
mortal thought must finally give
| place to the glorious forms which
i we sometimes behold in the came- i
j ra of divine mind, when the men-
j tal picture is spiritual and eter-
! nal. Mortals must look beyond
: fading, finite forms, if they would
gain the true sense of things.
Where shall the gaze rest but in
the unsearchable realms of mind?
|(p. 264).

More Than 100,000
Kudzu Crowns Arrive
During Last Few Days
(J. V. Dupree)
There were 104,030 kudzu crowns
delivered to Taylor county farmers
last week andin the next few days
other farmers that have ordered
kudzu will receive their supply.
The 104,000 delivered last week
were from the first orders received
Jan 22-28.
Mrs. Louise G. Neisler is the
largest kudzu planter in the coun
ty this year 9he having planted 25
acres and also building about
100,000 lindal feet of terraces. Oth
er farmers planting 20 acres are:
N. L. Halley, J. U. Brunson on
Beechwood farm and B. F. Moore.
Mr. L. B. Strickland of Reynolds,
is the second largest planter, hav
ing planted 22 acres. Other farm
ers who planted from one to ten
acres are: Mrs. Susie Crook, Mrs.
C. C. Coulter, Mrs. O. L. Oliver,
J. C. Royal, Homer Chapman, J.
C. Harris, H. H. Booth, A. C.
Adams, L. J. Wainwright, H. A.
Sealy, W. M. Gee Jr., Jim Mussle-
white, L. C. Hortman, T. D. Jar
rell, Alfonzo McCrary, T. J. Hort
man, H. L. Bone. G. G. McCrary,
John Byrd and Mrs. Lucy B. Har
ris.
Among the colored farmers who
are planting two to six acres are
listed: LeRoy Smith, Arthur Pope,
Shib Newsome and William San
ders.
About 75 per cent of this kudzu
was planted on land that has
been retired from cultivation be
cause it had failed to produce a
money crop. Kudzu planted on
land like this will need plenty of
fertilizer and some cultivation
during the summer. If the land
will not produce corn with fertili
zer and cultivation you cannot ex
pect your kudzu to do much with
out a little fertilizer and some cul
tivation. So lets take care of our
kudzu and give it a fair chance.
