HD Council Has Projects THE TAYLOR COUNTY (Ga.) NEWS, Friday, Aufluit I, INI B. L. WALLER and M. P. Dean, Work Unit Conservationist SCS, observe growth of Coastal Bermuda planted in water way this spring. B. L. Waller and Dr. Robert Waller, are owners of farm and cooperators with Ocmulgee Soil Con servation District. 50ILC0N5ERYATI0N USE By M. P. Dean B. 1_. Waller and Dr. Robert Waller, joint owners of large farm at Mauk, are in process of installing what might be termed, "1962 Model Terracing and Water Disposal System" on 114 acre field of thier farm. Cooperators with Ocmulgee Soil Conservation District, they have utilized assistance from Agricultural Conservation Pro gram to leve portions of field, construct parallel terraces, grade, shape and plant vegetated type waterways. Dean, SCS technician, and Waller both agree that 1962 Model Water Disposal System advantages are as follows: It fits the field; vegetated water ways are in every natural draw; terraces carry water from ridge to draw. The terracing system is designed to facili tate mechanized farming, par allel terraces, eliminating short rows, gives longer rows as operator simply raises plows and crosses outlet. It, also, saves on fuel, time and less wear and tear on machinery. This system will handle excess rainfall more efficiently; carry water in direction it would go By Mrs. Clyde Walker Although Taylor County has had a Home Demonstation Agent, and Home Demonstra tion Council until 1955 when Miss Ann Smith became Home Demonstration Agent and or ganized theCouncil.

Waller has planted and culti vated this field with two-row tractor equipment this year. Grassed waterways are now carrying off excess rain water. When the entire field is com pleted, he expects considerably less soil loss and control of finger erosion which will re duce the amount of run-off water going into several large gullies that surround part of field. Accidents on Rural Highways U. S. traffic accidents claim ed 38,000 lives in 1962. More than three-fourths of these fa talities occurred on rural roads and highways, according to Na tional Safety Council. J. R. Whiddon, pastor Reynolds Baptist Church You have probably heard a- bout the two prominent laymen who were fishing one Sunday morning when one of them re marked, about morning worship time, that his conscience was bothering him. The other said that his conscience didn’t bother him a bit because if he were at home he could not attend church because his wife was sick. It always seems that when summer comes around each year our church loyalty goes through a trial by fire. It seems increasingly easier to sleep a little later, then seek out some place of recreation. The Bible compares the church and its relationship to Christ to that of husband and wife.Our devotion to our church ought to be as constant and abiding as our devotion to our marriage partner. What woman would be will ing to accept a proposal of marriage to a man to be faith ful to her except on hot days? What man would be willing to let his wife off from their marriage vows once in a while because she had been loyal the rest of the time? This truly sounds silly but we expect God to accept this kind of reason ing uoin ua and be happy with it. Moose Lodge Reports Progress BY RICHARD PARKS The Butler-Reynolds Moose Lodge #1869 was granted a charter on April 1, 1962. From the 74 charter members, the following officers were appoint ed: Gann Nelson, governor; C. J. Wright, junior past governor; Ralph Underwood, junior gover nor; Sonny Edwards, secretary; Richard Parks, treasurer; Wayne Hill, prelate; Cecil Gaultney, sergeant- at-arms; Tom Bone, outer guard; Bill P atterson, inner guard and J im- my Smith, trustee. The Loyal Order of the Moose, consisting of more than 1900 Lodges in the U. S., Can ada and Great Britain, is a non-sectarian and nonpolitical organization, having its inter national headquarters at Moo- 'se heart and Moosehaven. Moo- seheart is located near Chicago. It was founded in 1913 and was established to provide a home for dependent children of de ceased members of the Order. It is a completely self-contain ed community known through out the world as "The Child City.” Moosehaven is located in Florida. It was founded in 1922 to provide a home for dependent aged members of the Order and their wives. It is a community of residences, a hospital, a farm and other buildings necessary for the comfort of these older Moose. As is evident, the Loyal Order of Moose is a charitable, non profit organization that certain ly deserves your support. We have just recently ac quired two lots on highway 128 about one mile north of Rey nolds - near the Reynolds Ki- wanis Golf Course. We hope to begin construction of our lodge here in the very near future. We invite you to join with us in our charitable under taking. See one of the above officers if you are interested. Bed Springs Consider replacing the bed spring when you purchase anew mattress, suggests Miss Doris Oglesby, Extension home im provement specialist. Chances are the bed spring is as old as the mattress to be replaced. If the spring is not replaced, too, the new mattress won’t be completely satisfactory. The spring supplies about one-third the total resiliency of bedding when used with an innerspring mattress and about two-thirds when used with a solid type mattress, she says. Select gilts from litters of uniformity with three pounds or more average birth weight, says Extension Animal Husbandman James A. Christian. * * * Farmers own 58 percent of Georgia’s private forest land. The average Georgia farm is 52 percent woodland, according to Extension foresters. Some of the excuses that a minister hears must certainly bring a tear to the eye of the Lord. People say they work hard six days and Sunday is the only day they have for them selves. The Bible says thatGod gave you six days and asked for only one for himself. They say,"I just didn’t feel like attending." My former pastor used to say, "Who ever said you had to feel like a million dollars to come to church? When you feel out of sorts, that’s when you need to come.” They say they don’t insist that their children attend be cause they are afraid it will warp them. I wonder if they would apply that same reason ing to their educational train ing? Which is really more im portant in the long run? Some one has said that an excuse is the skin of reason stuffed with a lie. This is what we offer God for not being loyal to the institution founded on His Son. In our day the manufacturers of tranquilizers are becoming wealthy because of our tensions. Doctors tell us that most of this tension is caused from guilt. This is an age of disobed ience of God’s laws and the fracturing of the laws of the land and the whole country is guilt ridden because of it. I don’t for a minute think that habitual church attendance is the cure all but it certainly is a good start. Let’s all try it out next Sun day. See you in church. Congratulations W. H.
