“WHAT DOTH it profit a man if he gain
the whole world and lose his immortal
soul?” And what, in the long run, does it
profit a man of professional stature, if he
should tamper with the ethics of his pro
fession in order to make immediate gains?
Confidence and trust, once shaken by even
the hint of suspicion, never can be regained.
Our organization has been built upon a
foundation of trust and confidence which
has supported our growth over the years.

It causes, in most cases, intense pain in the

Every hour, year ’round,
is springtime when you own
an electric heat pump
A flameless electric heat pump gives you
spring-fresh comfort around the clock, around
the calendar! In the hottest hours of summer,
it gives you the tingling hint of a frosty morn
ing. In raw winter weather it keeps your whole
house sunshine-warm.
Set the thermostat when your heat pump is
installed. Then forget it. Seasonal changeovers
are automatic. Your heat pump reverses its
cycle from heating to cooling as needed.
Since it uses only electricity, there are no
combustion by-products. Interiors stay clean.
Redecorating costs are cut.
It’s all so economical with our special low
rate for total-electric customers. Budget billing
keeps your electric bill the same every month.
Good reasons to stop the clock now—at the
exact season you prefer!

4-H Camp
The Georgia 4-H summer camp
ing program is in full swing, and
by the time the season ends on
August 13 nearly 12,000 boys and
girls will have participated in a
week-long educational, inspir
ational, and educational experi
ence.
The Rock Eagle 4-H Club Cen
ter near Eatonton will, of course,
be the biggest drawing card.
Headquarters last month for o
ver 700 delegates to the State 4-
H Council meeting and nearly 6,-
000 county champions who com
peted for district honors in pro
ject achievement meetings, the
Center is now playing host to
county groups of campers.
Ninety-nine counties will bring
7,182 Four-H’ers to Rock Eagle
during the summer program, ac
cording to Dr. T. L. Walton,
state 4-H Club leader with the
University of Georgia Coopera
tive Extension Service.
Over 4,000 campers in the oth
er counties of the state will use
facilities at the Chatham County
4-n Camp near Savannah, Camp
Fulton near Atlanta, and Camp
Wahsega near Dahlonega.
From the beginning of 4-H Club
work in Georgia in 1905, camp
ing has been one of the major
phases of the program, Dr. Wal
ton said. But 4-H camping, he
continued, has come a long way
from the time when members
used to pitch their tents on a
creek or lake baric and sleep on
the ground. The early campers
brought sacks of potatoes with
them, and chickens tied by the
legs, and various other items ne
cessary to tide them over for
two or three days.
Not only have the facilities and
the food improved, but the in
struction program is vastly dif
ferent too. Dr. Walton said 4-H
camping still tries to keep the
participants close to nature;
