One of the biggest problems in
conservation, according to Charlie
N. Elliott, director of the State
Game and Fish Commission, is to
awaken people to the need of
working with the State and Federal
agencies to conserve the game and
fish resources.
Georgia is fortunate in having a
lot of good hunting and fishing
left. Many of its sister states are
not so fortunate.
The main needs of wildlife are
protection, food and cover. If they
have these primary necessities, El
liott said, they will survive in
large enough numbers for each
sportsman to have his fair share
However, this means that every
one must obey the bag and creel
limits, assist the wildlife by con
trolling predators, and see that
food crops for birds are planted.
Georgia must keep its streams free
of pollution and discourage the
illegal methods of taking fish.
Otherwise, sportsmen may wake up
and find that their paradise has
turned into a desert.

BUTLER, GEORGIA
Vacation time has arrived!
The local schools are closed after
a highly successful term, in which
there was record-breaking attend
ance.
For most boys and girls the clos
ing school this week means a vaca
tion only until next September, but
many have received their High
school diplomas and will either em
bark on a business career or attend
college.
In either event, the high school
graduate faces tasks that will be
greater than those he or she has
tackled in the past.
It is an unsettled world into
which the graduate must set
forth if he now plans to go to work.
It is a world in which he will
face many problems that will be
difficult to solve. It is a world that
a few months ago was aflame with
war. Hostilities have come to an
end on the battlefields, but much
strife still exists as efforts are made
to bring order out of the chaos that
developed in the changeover from
war to peace.
A person equipped with a geed
education stands a far greater
chance to cope with the situations
he faces in the world today than
the one who does not have this ad
vantage.
LaGrange, June 4—Each morn
ing as tiny, five-year-old Linda Bar
tlett awakens, she calls out to her
mother, “Has Erma Jean come back
yet?”
And each morning for the past
two weeks Mrs. Letha Bartlett,
of Seven Railroad St., LaGrange,
has had to tell little Linda the
family has still received no word
of her sister who disappeared May
20 with her girl friend, Joy Dean
Hicks, 14, daughter of Mrs. Mabel
Hicks of LaGrange.
LaGrange police and Georgia

tution Building”, tse telegram stat
ed, “OK. Job and room,” and was

TRAINING FOR SERVICE
LESSON TEXT - Mark 8:713; Luke
10-1. 2: 14-25.27
MEMORY SELECTION - And he that
taketh not his cross, and followeth after me.
Is not worthy of me.—Matthew 10:38.
Workers for God, and with God!
Such is the high privilege of the men
and women who respond to his call
and who go out to witness for him.
On the one side, we have a world
desperately in need of the gospel,
perhaps more so ’than any genera
tion in history. On the other hand,
we have the gospel of the saving
grace of God in Christ Jesus, the
only solution to the problems of man
kind, the perfect answer to man’s
need.
How shall these two be brought
together? By sending out witnesses
to tell the glad tidings of redemp
tion and peace. Where shall we find
these witnesses? In the church, for
only the believer in Christ is quali
fied to tell others of his saving
grace.
Our lesson, in telling of the Lord’s
calling and sending forth laborers
into his harvest field, gives us'much
helpful instruction regarding serv
ice for the Lord. We learn that
I. God Provides for His Workers
(Mark 6:7-10),
Jesus sent out his twelve disciples
two by two, thus providing every
worker with fellowship and help in
hours of discouragement and trial.
This also served to keep a man in
balance so that he would not become
self-willed and proud of his own
achievements.
It was a wise provision. Perhaps
the church should have observed it
with more care, and thus have
saved some good workers from go
ing astray.
They were not to be cumbered
with extra equipment, nor be con
cerned about their daily sustenance.
The Lord would provide through the
hospitality and generosity of his
people.
Note that the expected hospitality
was not to be allowed tc hinder their
work (cf. v. 10 with Luke 10:7).
Many a preacher or evangelist has
ruined a series of meetings by let
ting social life hinder prayer, soul
winning, or preparation for preach
ing.
II. God Gives Power to His Work
ers (Mark 6:7, 11-13).
He gave them authority over evil
spirits, so that they could drive
them out. He gave them power to
heal; he gave them power to preach
effectively.
The man who goes forth to speak
for the Lord does not have to mus :
ter up his own puny powers or de
pend on the weak arm of some hu
man helper. His resources are in
finite and omnipotent. He speaks
for the Almighty God. He has a
message with saving power.
All too often the servants of the
Lord are apologetic and hesitant in
their ministry. They mistake weak
ness for meekness, and in their de
sire not to assert themselves, they
fail to speak a ringing “Thus saith
the Lord.’’
We need a revival of authorita
tive preaching, of that holy boldness
which was not afraid to rebuke sin
and any unwillingness to do the
Lord s will (v. 11). We need a new
emphasis on repentance (v. 12).
III. God Calls Helpers for His
Workers (Luke 10: I, 2).
After the twelve were sent out,
he called and commissioned the sev
enty. That blessed process has
gone on ever since. How blessed
it is that even in our day of unbelief
and sin, hundreds of young men and
women are going out to all the mis
sion fields of the world to work
with older and experienced mission
aries.
Perhaps these words will be read
by some young man or woman who
has felt the promptings of the Spirit
of God to go into his service. Step
out by faith just now, and begin to
prepare yourself for God’s service.
If the writer of these notes can be
of help to you, do not hesitate to
write to him. , God is looking for
more workers.
Do not overlook the important ad
monition in verse 2. The Lord is
waiting for his people to pray for
laborers for fields which stand white
and ready for harvest.
IV. God Requires Self-Denial ef
His Workers (Luke 14:25-27).
The mighty works and the power
ful words of Jesus made it impos
sible for people to ignore him. Mul
titudes followed him, but he, know
ing the fickleness of the human
heart, faced them with the real de
mands of discipleship.
The Lord was never concerned
with mere numbers. He wanted fol
lowers whose hearts were right. The
church has broken down its testi
mony in the world by its frantic de
sire for more members, great
crowds, large church buildings, at
the expense of compromise of tes
timony.
The requirement of the Lord is
unmistakable. A man or woman
who is to serve him must put him
first. No worldly ambition or earth
ly friendship, no, not even the ten
der love of family, can come be
tween the Lord and his servant. He
is either Lord of all, or he is not
Lord at all.
