Official Organ of Brantley County Religiously Speaking By Kev. Howard D. Blalock, Pastor Emmanuel Baptist Church, Blackshear WHAT IS A HOME? In Brazil they have no juvenile delinquency. Why? Wadiva Isa bel Marchiori, editor of the “Revista de Globo” tells us. “In Brazil, children go along with their parents, or grandparents take care of them — or else the parents just don’t go out. Be cause of this custom, Brazilian children during their formative years never feel neglected. That is why there is no organized ju venile delinquency in my coun try”. Just what is it that makes a home? Is it that something that makes members to “never feel neglected”? Material things do not make a home. Faith Forsythe said: “A man may think he has done the best for his children because he has sacrificed to give them a comfortable home and a good education, but that’s only the first mile. It is the spiritual side of family life that matters most, how much you are prepared to give your children beyond mere food, clothing and schooling”. Henry Van Dyke says some beautiful words about what home I read within a poet’s book, A word that starred the page, ‘Stone walls do not a prison mawe, Nor iron bars a cage*. Yes, that is true, and something more: You’ll find where’er you roam, That marble floors and gilded walls ■77IM •...in the breast or elsewhere -is the second of the seven commonest danger signals that may mean cancer...but should alwayt mean a visit to your doctor.

(00 IT NOW — BEFORE YOU NEEP IT.) . ! Can never make a home. But every house where love abides And friendship is a guest. Is surely home, and home, sweet home; For there the heart can rest. Home is a place where love abides. Love is the key to a real home. Only through the lens of love will the members of a fam ily be fully understood and ap preciated for what they are. Love is the agent that shapes every real home. A home without this love is no more a home than an oak is an oak without its oak ness. What are the characteristics of this love? At its best it is a love which seeks not its own desires primarily. If a home is to be created, it must be done on un selfish love. This love is con cerned for the welfare of others, it freely gives regardless of the merit of its object. When a home is founded upon this complete, self-giving concern for others, there will be no feeling of neglect by the children nor incompatible relationships between the father and mother. It will be what some know it to be: “A heaven on earth”. But if it does not have this love it will be what others know it to be: “A hell on earth”. What will a home like this do? Perry F. Webb, in “Watchman- Examiner”, tells us. He says: “The home provides the VISION we shall have of other races and people; it is the LENS through which we get our first look at marriage and all civic duties; it is the CLINIC where by conver sation and attitude, impressions are created with respect to sob riety and reverence; it is the SCHOOL where lessons of truth or falsehood, honesty or deceit are learned; it is the MOLD which ultimately determines the structure of society”. Judge Ben Lindsey, through his rich experience, arrived at this opinion of the home. He said: “I began to see more than ever in my life how the foundation of the republic is the home, and the hope of the republic is in the child that comes from the home, and that there can be no real protection, no real justice for the child, until justice is done the home”. The same thing can be said of the church, school, and community that Judge Lindsey has said of the republic. For a home is the foundation of a stable society. v ; J . - ■ if'. ) • , • Adding one-half ounce of tal low for each pound of home made lard will stiffen the. lard and keep i.t from being runny at room temperature and also will help prevent rancidity. ’ Waynesville News By MRS.

He predicted that these producers will profit from increased yields of gum rosin, and further that trees being hung by these latest methods will be usable without jump butt loss in the future for either sawtimber, poles, piling’ or pulp wood. Additional encouragement for naval stores producers was learn ed this week for the first time in the announcement by Ray Shirley, Executive Secretary, A merican Turpentine Farmers As sociation that a 90 percent of parity loan would be available again this year on gum produc tion. The recent rains should im prove the vigor of pine timber, thereby, assisting the trees whe ther round or worked to throw off insect attacks. Outlook for the gum market for 1956 is excellent. Many far mers will be looking to this souce of dependable income for supple menting farm income this year, Cooper stated.

S. Department of Agriculture are urging farmers to give these buildings a careful safety check to locate any accident hazards such as abrupt changes in floor levels, weak boards, or protrud ing cleats, and then to correct the hazards. SUCCESS WITH COASTAL BERMUDA Extension Service Agronomist J. R. Johnson urges Georgia far mers to prepare the soil through ly and jvait for rain before plant ing Coastal Bermuda grass for grazing and hay. He says Coastal Bermuda may be planted on up land and well-drained lowland soils. In North Georgia, it should be planted in early spring. In South Georgia, anytime when the soil is moist is all right for plant ing. Georgia has more than 1,100 miles of roads on the 4°''"O mile hng N-tional Interstate Hi jh'vay System pictured above. This system comprises only about one per cent of the nation’s total highway mileage, but carries more than 20% of all the nation’s traffic. Georgia's interstate highway network carries about 26% of the State's total traffic. Perhaps that figure is too high, or maybe it is low.
