“HE’LL NEVER LEARN”
Jesus said, “Why worry . . . ? He also said, Give
full measure .. . Full measure will come back to
you.”
There is this TV personality advertising some sort
of bacon, I think, who always says to his partner- on
the screen, “He’ll never learn.” I have been think
ing about myself in this regard, relative to “worry”
“you reap what you sow.” I wonder if we’ll ever
learn ?
George Gray, an active Episcopalian who lives at
St. Marys, writes a column quite often for the paper
there. George is one of my helpful friends and a real
churchman whom 1 respect. His kind “don’t grow on
trees.” Prayer, study, worship, and God make such
men as George. In his column of the paper last week,
he wrote something that gave me'much encourage
ment, relative to sowing and reaping, and worry.
He wrote, “I spoke to J. Loy Scott in front of the
old Post Office one morning, or rather he spoke to me,
(This story happened while 1 was pastor at St. Marys
and George is talking about an experience between
us during my four-year pastorate there) “Loy was
reflective. He rubbed his chin as was his custom or
habit (I didn’t know I habitually rubbed my chin)
and observed that a man had to say his prayers and
just take one day at a time. He tipped his hat good
morning to two ladies and squinted up at the sun.
“Yessir, he observed, One day at a time. A man
can’t get it all done in a day. He can’t worry about
tomorrow or next week. If he can just take care of
one day, He’s doing well. Pray for me George.”
“He got into his car and I got into mine. We both
drove off. Loy couldn’t have known that he saved
me a lot of trouble. Months later I told him.” (I, of
course, did not remember the experience).
“It has occured many times since the meeting with
Loy that he gave away something good that might
be shared,”’ the column continued.
“Let’s say a person is having trouble with diet. It’s
something pretty common these days, something you
find around most houses; someone fighting with the
bathroom scales. Much unnecessary torment comes
from a Sunday apple pie. This happens on Wednes
day or Thursday. Sunday is the time to worry about
the apple pie you used to eat on Sunday. Sufficient
unto the day is the apple pie thereof. Right?
“Noontime is the wrong time to be worried about
the cigarette you used to smoke after the evening
meal. Do what you can with the noon cigarette and
then struggle with the evening when you get to it
Maybe you can shorten the struggle in the evening
by going to bed early. You can’t worry about too
much at one time. If the Bride at the Altar had a
vision of the future, some say, she would dash her
bouquet to the best man and skedaddle out of the
church building with veil flying in the breeze.

Honors History at SGC Makes
Topic Come Alive for Classes
Douglas, Ga. — History is
not a dull subject. That’s what
a group of South Georgia Col
lege students are discovering
in Honors History classes at
the college. In atypical fash
ion the students do not make
an immediate response to the
bell signaling the end of each
class period, but on many oc
casions, continue taking notes
or pursuing discussion until
forced out by the next hour’s
class.
This reluctance on the part
of students to see a class end
is indicative of the success
of the Honors History pro
gram, which was developed at
South Georgia College four
years ago.
Ong student, Mary Frances
Youngblood of Douglas, is
taking her second Honors His
tory course this quarter. She
enrolled in the first course
last quarter because, in her
words, she knew it would be
a challenge. She also liked the
greater variety of assigned
reading material the course
required.
The class is limited to on
ly 15 students each quarter
and one of the teachers. As
sociate Professor of Social
Science Elizabeth Lott, says
this contributes to a good
learning enviroment.
“With a group of only 15
students, and good students at
that, a teacher is able to do
a great deal more than she
can with 40 or 45 students of
varying degrees of ability and
experience,” Miss Lott said.
She said seven basic texts
are used and that the class
meets three times each week
for in-depth dicussion roll
ing. Having only three hours
of class each week, she point
ed out, gives the sudents more
time to read and prepare for
the discussions.
“I really think this is an ex
cellent way to deal with stu
dents who have good grades
and good scholastic capacity,”
