Watercolor Society Is Formed; Scott Coleman Is A Director Area artists will be interested to learn that a Georgia Watercolor Society has been formed. The new organization, which is being incorporated as “The Geor gia Watercolor Society” will have its headquarters in Columbus. Plans are being made for a juried competition and exhibit to be held in April, 1976, at the Columbus Museum of Art. A nationally know watercolorist will be invited to select the paintings which will be shown and also to select the winners of the competition. Competitions and exhibits are being “planned as an annual event and it is expected that a traveling exhibit may be come available. Wyndell L. Taylor, Presi dent of the newly formed society, states that “To be sure we maintain a high standard of quality and technical ability, a painter must have been selected for two Georgia Watercolor Society Annual Exhibits before becoming a partici- MISSING GOLF BALLS WERE IN SNAKE S TUMMY The mystery of the missing golf balls was solved with dramatic suddenness Saturday for the Tom Bond family on the Barnesville highway. It seems that Mrs. Bond has been using golf balls to “fool” some hens and they had been disappearing mysteriously. Saturday morning Mrs. Bond sighted a large black snake slithering across the back yard. She grabbed a gun and dispatched the snake. Tom went out in the yard to look at the critter and discovered two suspicious “bulges” in the snake’s stomach. A quick slit with a knife solved once and for all the mystery of the golf balls for the snakes had ingested two of them. This is the second tale in recent weeks of a snake’s addiction to golf balls, another having swallowed several.

PAID POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT Republican Party Goldwater carried Georgia in 1964. Gerald Ford will carry Georgia in 1976. Lawrence Rice will enter the race for Lieutenant Governor in 1978, so help me God and keep me stead fast. LAWRENCE RICE REPUBLICAN The Sower Rev. Lamar Guyton, Administrator Jackson Christian Adademy “The Sower soweth the word.” Here is presented the great principle which should underline all educational work. “The seed is the word of God.” But in too many schools of our day God’s work is set aside. Other subjects occupy the mind. The study of infidel authors holds a large place in the educational system of today. Skeptical sentiments are interwoven in the matter placed in school books. Scientific research becomes misleading, because its dis coveries are misinterpreted and perverted. The word of God is compared with the supposed teachings of science, and is made to appear uncertain and un trustworthy. Thus the seeds of doubt are planted in the minds of youth and in time of tempation they spring up. When faith in God’s word is lost, the soul has no guide, no safeguard. Thus many of our youth are drawn into paths which lead away from God and from everlasting life. To this cause may in great degree be attributed the wide-spread iniquity in our world today. When the word of God is set aside, its power to restrain the evil passions of the natural heart is rejected. Thus, men sow to the flesh, and of the flesh they reap corruption. And here, too, is the great cause of mental weakness and inefficiency. In turning from God’s word to feed on the writings of uninspired men, the mind becomes dwarfed and cheapened. It is not brought in contact with deep, broad principles of eternal truth. The under standing adapts itself to the comprehension of the things with which it is familiar, and in this devotion to finite things it is weakened, its power is contracted, and after a time it becomes unable to expand. All this is false education. The work of every teacher should be to fasten the mind of the youth upon the grand truths of the word of inspiration. This is the education essential for this life and for the life to come. And let it not be thought that this will prevent the study of the sciences, or cause a lower standard in education. The knowledge of God is as high as heaven and as broad as the universe. There is nothing so ennobling and invigorating as a study of the great themes which concern our eternal life. Let the youth seek to grasp these God-given truths, and their minds will expand and grow strong in the effort. It will bring every student who is a - doer of the word into a broader field of thought, and secure for him a wealth of knowledge that is imperish able. The education to be secured by searching the scriptures is an experimental knowledge of the plan of salvation. Such an education will restore the image of God in the Soul. It will strengthen and fortify the mind against temptation, and fit the learner to become a co worker with Chirst in His mission of mercy to the world. It will make him a member of the heavenly family, and prepare him to share the inheritance of the saints in light. But the teacher of sacred truth can impart only that which he himself knows by experience. “The sower sowed his seed.” Christ taught the truth because He was the truth. His own thought, His character. His life-experience, were em bodied in His teaching. So with His servants: those who would teach the word are to make it their own by a personal experience. They must know what it is to have Christ made unto them wisdom and righteousness and redemption and sancitifi cation. In presenting the word of God to others, they are not to make it a suppose-so or a may-be. They should declare with the Apostle Peter, “We have not followed cunningly devised fables when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-wit nesses of His Majesty.” (2 Peter 1:16; Every minister of Christ and every teacher should be able to say with the beloved John, “The life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us.” (1 John 1:2) KNOW YOUR MEAT Ever wonder what you are getting when you buy pro-, cessed meat or poultry prod- 1 ucts?

The label starts with the item weighing the most and con tinues down to the item weighing the least.
