Having returned to school after
the Christmas holidays we have
plunged into deep study, preparing
for mid-term examinations, which
are not far off.
Our new gym and Community
House is practically completed. Plans
are now being made to dedicate it
on the night of January 15. Both
boys and girls will play games with

Rowena teams present to play games
also. If the building is finished in
time the first games will be with
Colquitt Tuesday, January 12.
Wednesday morning, January 6,
the seniors presented a chapel pro
gram based on their recent study in
sociology of the Negro Problem. This
program included three talks on the
various phases of the question, a
humorous negro reading, and a black
face skit entitled “Ghosts”. Negro
songs were also used. Those taking
part in the program were Doris
Lewis, Agnes Pickron, Mary Spurlin,
Mary Crook, Howard Byrd, Joe
Corcoran, and Edgar Lewis.

... LESSON...
NEW LIFE IN CHRIST
LeLesson for Jan. 10: John 3:1-17
Golden Text: John 3:3
By REV. CHAS. E. DUNN
There are three characteristic
words in the gospel of John: Light,
Love and Life. The book assures
us that Jesus is the Light of the
world (chap. 8:12). We are at
once reminded of Holman Hunt’s
famous painting, “The Light of the
World,” depicting the Master knock
ing on a door long shut. Will we
open the door? Will we admit the
Light?
And John also teaches that the
climax of Jesus’ message is Love.
Consider that familiar verse in our
lesson text, John 3:16, which Luther
so aptly called the “little gospel.”
Or turn to John 15:12, where Jesus
urges his disciples to love one an
other even as He has loved them.
But we are especially interested
in the thid key word, Life, for our
lesson is entitled, “New Life in
Christ.” John’s gospel opens with
the assurance that “in him was
life,” and it closes with the hope
“that believing, ye may have life
through his name.” And in be
tween we read such declarations as
“I am the bread of life,” “I am come
that they might have life,” “I am
the resurrection and the life.”
What does John mean? He is
telling us that life in its full reality
is given to us here and now through
the living Christ. We do not need
to wait, for example, until we die
before we can enjoy eternal
life, for heaven is now available
this side of the grave. Death does
not alter in any fundamental way
the ever-flowing current of divine
life. The resurrection takes place
in this present world when men
are born again, and it is this new
birth which carries them from spir
itual death into a new life imparted
by a living Person.
So our Golden Text, “Unless a
man is born again he cannot see
the Kingdom of God,” is of central
importance. The destiny of man
hangs upon it.

A. C. Shaw, Assistant Regional Forester and E. A. Schillings, Game Specialist for the U. S. Forest
Service, recently killed this Wild Prussian Boar in the Cherokee National Forest. This specimen will
be mounted and placed on exhibit at the Forest Service office in Atlanta.

FOREST SERVI CE OFFICIALS BAG UNUSUAL SPECIMEN
All hunting provides good sport
and requires a certain amount of
skill, but wild boar hunting will pro
vide a post graduate course for all
sportsmen, according to A. C. Shaw
and E. A. Shillings, prominent At
lanta sportsmen and officials of the
United States Forest Service.
These two hunters recently re
turned to Atlanta with a prize
wild Prussian boar which was kill
ed in the Tellico Plains section of
the Cherokee National Forest.
Sportsmen doubting the identity
of this specimen needed only one
look to distinguish it from the gen
eral run of “razor-backs” or domes
ticated hog turned wild.
The boar has been shipped to
Washington where experts of the
Bureau of Biological Survey are
studying it for scientific informa
tion. At the conclusion of these
studies it will be mounted and re-
High Grade Pecan
Oil Is Perfected By
State Scientists
Athens, Ga.—University of Geor
gia scientists announce that oil
made from pecans makes an “ex
ceptionally fine salad oil,” is satis
factory for cooking, and becomes
only slightly rancid after 10 months’
exposure to room temperature.
Dr. T. H. McHatton, head of the
department of horticulture, said
there is no immediate commercial
interest in production of pecan oil
and pecan meal, but that with a
steady increase in pecan production
in Georgia, it will be necessary even
tually to find new ways of utilizing
the crop.
He said pecan oil does not cloud
when placed under refrigeration,
and is not affected by light.
Even in a crude state, he said,
pecan meal probably would make
an excellent breakfast food and
might, with refining, be used in
cakes, cookies, biscuits and muffins.
Fifty pounds of pecans should
yield 12 to 121-2 pounds of oil or
meal, and about 25 pounds of shell
and waste for which it is possible
some use may be found.
“The retail price of olive oil in
quarts is $1.15. That of refined
cottonseed oil is approximately 45
cents per quart.
“If we consider that pecan oil
is comparable to olive oil, and if
the producer can get 25 cents a
pint for pecan oil, it should equal
$3 for 50 pounds of nuts, or six
cents a pound. This of course is
a ridiculous price for high-grade
pecans, but we should recognize
that seedlings quite often sell for
prices even lower than this. It is
possible that the production of oil,
the making of the meal, and the
finding of some new outlet for the
hulls and shells of the nut would
bring the value of the pecan from
8 to 10 cents a pound, and that
below that economical outlets could
be found for by-products, especially
if the nuts were not of large size
or first grade.”

turned to the Forest Service Region
al office in Atlanta, where it will re
main on exhibit.
Forest Service officials are con
vinced that the only stock of wild
Prussian boars in the United States
exist in the Cherokee National
Forest. This is due to the protec
tion which they have been afforded
in protected game areas.
The recent hunt conducted in the
Cherokee National Forest was the
result of the boars becoming too
numerous, which made it necessary
to reduce the number.
In Georgia five of these protected
game areas have been closed under
a co-operative agreement between
Game and Fish Commissioner Zack
D. Cravey and Regional Forester
John C. Kircher. These five areas
are located in the Chattahoochee
National Forest of North Georgia.

fish and game birds will replenish
the wildlife supply of this area so
that regulated hunts in Georgia
will be possible within a reasonable
time.
Zach Cravey, State Game and
Fish Commissioner, is generous in
his praise of the co-operation se
cured from Forest Service officials
in restocking game and fish in
Georgia’s National Forest land.
Cravey states that the recent wild
boar hunt in the Cherokee National
Forest and the regulated deer hunt
in the Pisgah Game Preserve are
evidence of the concrete plan which
the Forest Service officials are car
rying out in co-operation with the
various State Departments.
“Closing of game areas means
better hunting in the future. The
co-operation of the people means a
more rapid restocking program,”
states Commissioner Cravey.
