Newspaper Page TextWeekly Devotional By J. C. PARHAM, Pastor Towaliga Baptist Church “LET THE SUNSHINE IN” Some months ago I was sitting on the back door steps and heard some children singing: “Let the sunshine in Take it with a grin Smilers never lose And frowners never win.” I thought what a good motto for living these words express. My mind then went back a few years to a scene I witnessed when visiting a neighbor. This friend had three dogs whose names were Dusty, Scrappy and Missie. The lady of the house threw out some food that landed in one pile. Mis sie and Scrappy ran for the food, each afraid that the other was going to get the larger portion. Before either had begun to eat, they growled and showed their teeth at each other. Within a few seconds they were fighting. Dus ty, who hadn’t made a sound, slip ped up and ate all the food and returned to her shady spot under a bush. So, when Scrappy and Missie had finished their “spat,” they were the losers and Dusty had gained the food. How much like animals these human being really are! We growl and snarl and fight, only to lose in the end. We wound the feelings of those whom we fa>ve the most. How much we could gain through love, under standing and cooperation. Then, we think of this same principle, greed, on a national scale. How selfishness and greed assert themselves at peace con ferences and leave the world no nearer the solutions of the prob lems of war than before. Hatred and bitterness grow if allowed to remain in the human EARN 6% Two Year Savings Certificates ($5,000 minimum) NEWTON FEDERAL Savings & Loan Association 1182 Washington Street Covington, Ga.

Hudgens Funeral services for Mr. Enoch Weldon (Bill) Hudgens, 48, of Route 2, Mill Street, Jackson, were conducted Thursday after noon from the Second Baptist Church with the Rev. A. L. Price, pastor, officiating. Interment was in Pepperton Cemetery with Sherrell Funeral Home in charge of arrangements. Mr. Hudgens died about six o’clock Wednesday morning, Apr il 12th, in a private hospital and had been in declining health for several months. He was born in Butts County August 26, 1923, the son of the late Mr. Enoch Hudgens and Mrs. Mattie Haw kins Hudgens, who survives, both of Butts County. He was a member of the Sec heart. They are deadly enemies wrecking lives, homes and na tions. They must be driven out. To leave the heart empty would not better the condition, but fill your heart so full of love there will not be room for hatred. Drive out the bad by the good coming in. The greed of Silas Marner was replaced with love for Eppie. The Love of Christ constrains us —holds us together —gives us something to live for and to live by. Let’s fill our lives so full of loving thoughts, kind deeds and well-wishing that there won’t be any room for greed and quarrel ing. May we fashion our lives after the order of Christ—Love, and not after the order of Cain, \ hatred and murder. Let us take life with a grin. Let the “Sun shine of God’s love come in and we shall never be a loser but always a winner. “Love one another, for love is of God.” THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA Progress-Argus Honor Roll [\, w and Renewal Subscriptions Of The Past Several Days Jerry Coleman, Athens Ray M.

Here is one of those great epigrams of my favorite philosopher Dad! Or Was it Mother? It’s hard to remember for sure. But, anyway, it isn’t true. The older I get the more I realize that there are some who can tie their own neckties but still aren’t men. Maturity is not measured by what you can do. It is measured rather by your reasons for doing—or not doing—things you can do. Think that sentence through once more. Tour son will become a man when he has j •ound reasons for doing one thing and not; doing something else, even though he could 1 have done either. f%gjE Jf| ; .fill *.
