Let there be sincere repent ance for the follies of the past, and then let anew man step forth to meet with lu>i>e and determination the glad New Year which God desires shall be a blessed year for every child of earth. When G<xi forgives. He for gives utterly, lie casts man’s sins “into the depths of the sen.” Why then should memory thrust Its hooked pole into the sea to dredge the bot tom and bring up by the. locks some pale memory wide* God lias plunged into the ocean of forgetfulness? Man’s life is not in the past, hut in the days to come, for our times are in His hand. And how many of ns are waiting for the opportunities of Hie coming year? With how many of us Is it the uniittered hope that tomorrow may In- free from the sins and the mis :al;es of yesterday? I pray God that for von it iiihj he so. Your times are in Ills hand, and let your Father shape the new year for you; let Him rule it, and strive with the help of the Spirit to walk the way of I Us commandments. “Forgetting the things that are behind, let us press on for ihe prize of the high calling in Christ Jesus." The passing year also must remind us that there will comen last year for each one of us. Perhaps this coming year is your last. Are you therefore ready to see the curtain rise upon eternity? Are you now ready to hear llie midnight cry, and to enter into the marriage supper of the King’s Son? Our times are in God’s hand, and no man knoweth what day or hour lie may be called from his labor. Though we live to he counted among Hie oldest inhabitants we must depart at last. Others have gone before us and are going every day, and yet we seem so eager to forget our own mor tality. Nay, let us rather look for ward with anticipation, believing that God will then give us a New Year which shall be without sin and tears and sorrow atid pain, where love shall rule, and where happiness shall be complete In the fullest service to our God. The New Year hells will soon he ringing. Do not fail to make some personal preparations for its coming. Make resolutions for the future on tiie basis of your experience of the past, I? very heart knows its own needs, and its own weaknesses. Be not discouraged by past failures, but pray to God earnestly to help to fu ture successes. Take this New Year us a holy gift from a gracious Father and begin to live it carefully and prayerfully. Do not strive to carry the burdens of future months, but live each day ss if it were the last and the best. In spite of all the ills which we set- in the world today, let us be lieve that tiie New Year will he a blessed your to ail mankind, and let each one of us do our uttermost to make it so. May God look upon us all in mercy, and may He let tins New Year Ring out old shapes of foul disease, Ring out the narrowing Inst of gold; Ring out the thousand wars of old. Ring in the thousand years of peace. OFFICIAL ORGAN OF BARROW COUNTY ...SOCIETY... WHITE-ED WARDS. Married at the Baptist Pasto rium last Sunday afternoon at five o’clock, Rev. W. 11.

The ninsr spontaneous ns well ns the largest consolidation of effort In the history of American relief and charita ble organizations has grown out of the disaster which threatens 8,000.000 European children this winter. To the headquarters of every agency that dis penses American mercy overseas lias come one steady cry for months past; the children, most helpless and blame less sufferers in the track of war will perish by tin* thousands before next harvest unless America saves them! When Dr Livingston Farrand, chair man of the Central Committee of the American Red Cross, returned from a recent trip abroad, his report throbbed with the need of the children. From Ihe feeding-stations of the American Relief Administration throughout east ern and central Europe came letters, caljles, pleas of every sort. The Pro testant churches sent Investigators into after-war conditions und every report breathed the Impending tragedy of starving and diseased children. Protestant, Catholic Rtid Jewish, the child life of Europe Is threatened with heartrending misery. The European Relief Council, with Herbert Hoover as chairman and the whole power of American charitable thought and effort behind It. has been formed. It consists of Edgar Rick ard, representing the American Relief Administration; Dr. Livingston Far rand, representing the American Red Cross; Felix Warburg, representing the Jewish Joint Distribution Commit tee; Wilbur K. Thomas, representing the American Friends’ Service Coin inlttee; .Tames A. Flaherty, represent ing the Knights of Columbus; Dr. C. V. Hibbard, representing the Young Men’s Christian Association; Miss Sarah K. Lyon, representing the Young Women’s Christian Association; Dr. Arthur Brown, representing tie Fed eral Council of Churches. It is the purpose of the Council to raise $33,000,000. In an appeal center ing at the Christmas' holidays, to the end that the situation regarding child life may he met. In every town and community of the nation, if Is hoped local committees, representing ull the co-operating agencies will he formed to secure the vituily necessary funds. Of the amount sought, $23,P00,000 will he used f>r basic food. For every one of these American dollars the local governments and communities aided will furnish two dollars, in the form of transportation, labor, guards, cleri cal help, cash contributions nnd such food supplies as sre locally obtainable. No children receive the free food ex cept after medical tests showing them to he seriously under nourished. The remaining $10,000,000 of the fund Is Just as urgently needed for medical service to the children. The European Relief Council will do much more than effect economies in the raising of rise childsuving fund. It will, willi the Inspecting forces of eight great aguneie-, keep a constant eye on tiie administration of America's merciful gift, in order that there shall be no wastage and nr tendency toward pauperization. $1.50 IN ADVANCH There are fgu ministers more universally loved by his own peo ple and by all other churches throughout this section tlml Rev. Jno. 11. Wood. He has endeared himself to all classes and made many sacrifices for the betterment of humanity. Until tal irg the preside 1 v of the Southeastern Christian College I e had been pastor of the Winder Christian church covering a period < ( er fifteen years. Y'ith the other duties he has had to perform, and earing for the col lege. he has never forgotten this church and since it lias been with out a pastor for several months has preached to them whenever possible. 's a small token of appreciation for vliat lie lias done and is still di he was presented on Christ mas e’ (> night with a hundred dol lar bill. Mr. Claud Mnyne. in his happy way of doing things, made a beau tiful presentation talk. Rev. Jno. 11. Wood was deeply touched by this Christmas gift and ii made him feel good because he * knew il came from a church whose members love and hold him in high esteem and appreciate liis efforts and tin 1 great work lie lias done. It was a happy occasion to every one present that evening. CONSUMPTION IS CUR ABLE-BEGIN EARLY TREATMENT Consumption or tuberculosis is cur able. Curable in direct ratio to the earl mess of diagnosis and treatment. The records of the Georgia State San atorium last year show 75 per cent of the moderately early cases were cur ed, while ol the later cases 45 per cent were cured. This shows definitely that the earlier the diagonals is made, the better the chance of a cure. And many of tiie cases that were not really cured, were improved oven though ad vanced in the disease. Every one who has a cough which has lasted longer than three weeks should go to u good physician aud be examined thoroughly for tuberculosis. If the physician finds tuberculosis sigus or even suspects the trouble, to be tula rculosls, application should be made at once for admission to (rent ment at the State Sanatorium at Alto, or some other such institution. Ik> not waste time trying to find a doctor who will contradict the diagnosis, bet ter go to tiie sanatorium and if the doctor at. the sanatorium finds that you have not tuberculosis, he will tell you so and send you back home. Lie sure, do not lake chances. The cold that hangs on; the contin ued loss of weight, spitting ol Mood' even in mall amounts; pleurisy; any of these are signs that should make any one suffering suspect, tuberculosis and have a competent physician make a complete examination of the chest which most be bare of clothing. it should be borne in mind that one may already be a victim of tubecul*- sis and the sputum be found free of tubercle bacilli upon microscopic ex amination. Nor can the X-ray he looked upon as the infallible test. Some persons may get well at home, but nil patients should, if possible, be sent to a sanatorium in order that they may he taught the proper way lo take Hie treatment and to learn the precautions necessary for continuing jn good health after tiie cure has been reached. Most cases who break down are those who have not properly learned this lesson. So remember, tuberculosis is cura ble -play safe, be sure. BE SAFE, NOT SORRY The light sore throat may soon de velop into a serious case of diphthe ria Call the doctor and find out. Bet ter be safe than sorry. • Watch the babies; see that they arc not exposed to infectious and conta gious diseases. One that you should . specially dread is whooping cough.
