“LET US REASON TOGETHER"
By REV. D. A. LASTINGER,
Retired Methodist Minister
WE CONTEMPLATE THE
APPROACH OF EASTER
With the approach of Easter,
Christians should give fresh con
sideration to its meanings. With
in those meanings are the key
stones to Christian faith and
reality.
Man without Christ is dead in
sin. Christ came to redeem him
from the death which sin had
produced. He offers us life in
exchange for death. Death, as
the fruit of sin, carries a two
fold meaning. Part of sin’s penal
ty is suffering and mortal death.
But it also means spiritual death.
The first part of the penalty re
mains. It has never been revok
ed. It is yet, “Appointed unto
men once to die, but after this
the judgement”. But Christ came
to revoke the spiritual death
settled on man because of his
sin. It was a glorious day when
He came to save men. There
fore, the day of His birth became
“Christmas” for us. From year
to year we celebrate it. IT IS
FIXED IN THE CHRISTIAN
CALENDAR.
But Christmas would never
have lived if Christ had not been
resurrected. It does not live so
much because it is the day of
His birth into this life in the
likeness of man, but because full
meaning and validity is giving
to His birth, and to all His works
and teachings, by His resurrec
tion. His power over the last
enemy, even death itself, was
made manifest. Had His body re
mained in a grave where it was
placed by the hand of men, the
Church of Christ would not have
been and the world would have
forgotten Him and His teachings.
Because He rose from the grave
and could say, “I am He that
liveth, and was dead; and, be
hold, I am alive for evermore,
Amen; and have the keys of hell
and death”—because that is true
we can live and trust in a
LIVING CHRIST. The resurrec
tion gives us this concept of Him.
Without it the day of His birth
would have faded and the hope
of the Christian would have been

lost.
Like many other sacred events,
Easter has been badly used or
slighted by many people. The
Easter dress parade, and even
the Easter Show in some church
es, has often been overdone.
When the point is reached where
Easter fails to be a great spiritual
event for worshipers, then Easter
is being misused and abused. The
full significance of Easter will
never be apprehended until we
find in the resurrection of Christ
the glorious and climaxing seal
being eternally placed upon all
the wondrous words and works
of Him who came to save His
people from their sin.
Let us, therefore, meditate and
pray much as we approach
Easter. And let us go to the
Lord’s house on that day to
worship a LIVING CHRIST. Af
ter this Easter may we know Him
and His will for us more per
fectly than we have ever before
known.

A PRINTED PRAYER
Printed prayers are exceeding
ly common and numerous today.
To tell you the truth we have
never liked them a great deal.
We have seldom ever used them
except in the ritual of the
Church. It is always easier to
READ a prayer than to PRAY a
prayer. PRAYING a prayer in
dicates at least a desire for con
secration. READING a prayer
does not necessarily indicate even
such a desire.
But since printed prayers are
so common we venture to offer
you a prayer for some people to
say on each Sunday morning. Os
course some people will not ap
prove of it and will not use it.
Possibly some people ought to
like it and use it. Here it is:
“O God, Thou who hast esta
blished Thine Church on earth
an ig men, (that is, for certain
types of people), I thank Thee
that Thou hast so made me that
I am without any need that could
be supplied in the sanctuary. I
thank Thee that I have a sort of
private agreement with Thee that
Thy Church, provided I pay a
little money into its treasury,
can be neglected and ignored by
me; and that Thou will not hold
me responsible for any of my
short-comings in this regard, or
for the influence of my example,
or those things which remain un
done that could have been done
by me had I lived in close rela
tionship with Thy Church. O
God, Thou art wonderful! I am
highly privileged! I thank Thee,
and most fervently praise Thee,
IN CHRIST’S HOLY NAME!
LIGHTNING DAMAGE
Lightning kills 400 people and
injuries 1,000 others every year
in the United States. According
to the National Safety Council,
90 per cent of these fatalities oc
cur in rural areas. Lightning also
is a major cause of farm fires.
About $20,000,000 worth of farm
property is destroyed annually.
Use of Molasses
In Swine Ration
Studied in Test
Recent tests at the College Ex
periment Station at Athens in
dicated that swine rations in
which cane molasses replaced
corn at 10 to 40 percent of the ra
tion were about 85 to 90 percent
as efficient as were rations in
which no molasses was used.
Raymond F. Sewel), assistant
animal husbandman at the sta
tion, said use of molasses as swine
feed is not too promising how
ever. He explained that at pre
sent prices the cost of the addi
tional protein supplement needed
when molasses in large quantities
is used in the ration tends to
counteract the saving the use of
molasses affords.
Sewell said that six lots of
seven pigs averaging 77 pounds
each were used in the tests which
he conducted with the assistance
of W. C. Stringer, a graduate
student. In two lots molasses re
placed corn by weight at 10 per
cent of the ration. When the pigs
averaged 100 pounds the amount
of molasses was increased to 20
percent and when the pigs reach
ed 150 pounds the molasses con
tent was raised to 30 percent.
A second group of two lots was
started with a ration containing
20 percent cane molasses, Sewell
continued. As the pigs increased
in weight the amount of molas
ses was raised to 30 and 40 per
cent.
One lot in each group received
an antibiotic and these pigs grew
significantly faster than did the
others, Sewell said. No significant
differences were obtained bet
ween molasses levels, he added.
USING EGG YOLKS
When you have extra egg yolks,
use them in making baked cus
tard. Two egg yolks have the
same thickening power as one
whole egg. Other ways to use
egg yolks are in cakes, corn
starch puddings, pie filling, salad
dressing and scrambled eggs,
Agricultural Extension Service
nutritionists say.
According to American Cancer
Society statistics, 24,000,000 Amer
cians now living will die of can
cer if present rates continue.

ATLANTA—“We want to help
you, and we will help you, but
you all must help us, too.”
That’s the message Scott Cand

ing in community after communi
ty as he goes around the state
addressing chambers of commer
ce, boards of trade and other
groups charged with promoting
the best interest of Georgia at
the local level.
For one thing, Chandler thinks
the enrollment in some chambers
of commerce is entirely too small
for the number of people who
live in the particular county.
Local commerce bodies with re
presentative membership means
much to a community in pro
moting its best interests.
“In the last two or three years
the number of industries in Geor

7,300,” he says. “The Georgia De

FERTILIZER FOR GARDENS
Georgia gardening specialists
recommend a 4-8-8 or 5-10-10
fertilizer as one that will give ex
cellent results with most vege
tables. Commercial fertilizer, as
a rule, should be applied either
prior to planting or when the
crops are planted. A good prac
tice is to plow the land, spread
half the fertilizer from a pail or
with a fertilizer distributor, then
harrow the soil two to three
times to get it in proper condi
tion and at the same time mix the
fertilizet with it.
