THE JACKSON HERALD, JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
SOUTHERN BAPTISTS
AT MEMPHIS
W. H. Faust
The annual gathering* of the re
presentatives of the Southern Bap
tist churches in May of each year
are epochal meetings in the on-go
ing of the Kingdom of God on earth.
It is much like the gathering of the
tribes in Jerusalem in the Jewish re
gime in the long ago. Inspiration
and information and fellowship draw
the millions closer together, and
the messengers go back to their re
spective fields greatly heartened and
strengthened for their duties and
work.
Memphis is a delightful city, ly
ing along the banks of the Father
of Waters, and the eternal swirl of
the Mississippi as she passes along
somehow challenges the on-lookers
to feel that there is at least some
thing permanent, even in the pass
ing. Hotel accommodations in this
great and growing city are wonder
ful, and during the meetings the
citizens put themselves out to make
their guests have a good time. Many
of the eating places removed their
beer signs and welcomed most cor
dially and graciously representatives
from a militant denomination that
did not believe in inebriating drinks,
and this within itself was a delicate
tribute to the worth of a group of
Christ’s triumphant crusaders.
The City Auditorium was large
and commodious, and it needed to
be to care for the crowds that at
tended. The section lying around
Memphis is a real vineyard for Bap
tists. The superb railroads and high
ways made it possible for multitudes
to attend. Many did what the writer
does, carry a whole auto load along,
for what one would have otherwise
to spend, and this proves a blessing
to the many who could not other
wise attend. Of course, it is some
little inconvenience to ride so far
in a car, but the worth of it ap
pears when those who are thus pri
vileged to go enjoy the benefits of
the gathering. Friendship and fel
lowships of lasting character are
formed, and the best interests of life
are pushed forward by such trips.
Dr. M. E. Dodd of Shreveport,
La., retired as President, and Dr.
Jno. R. Sampey of Louisville, Ky.,
was elected to take his place. • This
is a highly responsible office, and if
properly filled requires about all a
man’s time from his work. The av
erage minister or layman can not
give this time so badly needed for
a long period, and thus the normal
tendency of thought is towards a
short term. Dr. Dodd had just re
turned from a trip abroad, where he
visited the foreign mission fields.
His annual address thrilled the twel
ve thousand people who heard it. Dr.
Sampey, who has taught for years
in the Southern Baptist Seminary at
Loulisville, Ky., and has been for
several years President of that no
ble institution, will make us a fine
leader. He is scholarly and experi
enced, and knows how to touch the
rank and file of Baptists throughout
our territory.
It was an unusual meeting the
night that was given over to the
Foreign Mission work of the body,
as nearly half a hundred men and
women at home on furloughs appear
ed before the great audience and
their fields were laid upon the minds
of the workers. The annual sermon
always gives the preacher an unparal
lelled opportunity to present God’s
message to the most unique audience
that gathers in the world. An au
dience largey made up pf preachers,
who are always attentive hearers,
and who can carry the message to
others. Dr. Weatherspoon of Louis
ville, Ky., was the preacher this year,
and he brought one of the really
great sermons of the day, dealing
with Christianity and special issues,
and coming to grips with practical
problems. Those who heard it were
impressed with his scholarship and
consecration, and the echoes of that
sermon will have muqh to do with
enabling the sermon on the Mount
make its impress upon the citizens
of the next decade.
DT. E. M. Poteat, Jr., delivered an
address, and presented some social
service plans that are epochal.
There came a near clash of opinions
while he was speaking, and that was
interesting, for he is a really con
structive thinker, and showed that
Applied Christianity should help
make a better world in which to live,
and that the citizens of the Kingdom
of God had to do with the here, as
well as with the hereafter. The
plans were submitted to a commit
tee to report next session, and the
Baptist press will doubtless have
much to say about the matters ad
vanced during the coming months.
When did Baptists ever hear bet
ter singing than at Memphis? Ten
FOUR PLANETS IN THE EVEN
ING SKY
Of the five planets that can ever
be seen without a telescope, four
will soon be visible in the evening
sky at once. Venus is the most bril
liant of all, and can be seen high in
the west soon after the sky begins
to darken. It will continue to be
come brighter and more conspicuous
until the middle of the summer.
Jupiter is second in brightness and
shines in the southeast with a steady
light more brilliant than any other
star or planet in that part of the
sky. Mars appears high in the south,
and its brilliance and red color make
it easy to identify.
These three, which are visible all
month, will be joined about May 26
by Mercury, the smallest of the
planets, and the one nearest the
sun. On that date it will be farth
est to the east of the sun, and will
remain visible for about two hours
after sunset. It will then set be
fore the evening twilight is over,
but the planet will be bright enough,
about equal to Mars, to be seen in
the gathering dusk. It will be lower
than Venus, and farther north. If
one has a clear view to the north
west, Mercury should be seen for
several nights before and after the
26th.
Saturn is the only naked-eye plan
et that will not be visible in the
evening this month. It rises after
midnight, and although quite bright,
it is fainter than any of the other
planets. Each night it rises earlier,
and will be visible in the evenings.
MOTHER
The world is full of folks—but
none quite like her. The first friend,
truest, kindest, staunchest—all these
she has been, and more. Nothing is
too hard for her to undertake; no
burden comes but she wishes to
share; our joys are her joys, our sor
rows are her sorrows.
Though we had no learning, her
example would teach us. Did none
tell us of frinedship and love, we
would have seen its glory reflected in
her eyes. Though none spoke of
God, her presence would have told
us that He was near.
The world is full of people—but
none like mother!

thousand Christians singing Amaz
ing Grace, and How Firm a Found
ation, stirs people, and these preach
ers and laymen and women from
hamlet, village, city and the great
open saces come from a conquering
singing denomination. And along
with the singing came the fellowship.
Pastors of great city churches, lay
men from the village chiyches, and
women who are leaders in Sunday
and missionary societies met
and shook hands and talked about
common problems and formulated
programs that are most meaningful
for the future of the churches htat
dot every street and hill-side over
our beloved Southland.
The next session goes to St. Louis,
one of our greatest Southern cities.
The week following the Northern
Baptist Convention meets at the
same place, and no doubt in between
the sessions of these two great bodies
there will be a day given over to in
spirational addresses by the titanic
leaders of these two outstanding
Christian bodies, a time lokoed for
ward to by millions. The coming
convention city has an auditorium
that is the largest between the
oceans, and will comfortably seat all
who will come. The great West will
be to the fore with its wide spaces
and its challenging acres, and its
citizens who are matched up with its
size and spirit.
Next year every church in the
Southland should send its pastor to
this body. Should this be done, and
these leaders come in direct con
tact with just one such meeting, the
spiritual condition of the South will
be changed.
A few statistics may not be out of
place: 103,124 were baptized last
year. Baptist Training Unions have
33,864 organizatons, with 649,753.

work. 3,000 missionaries and de

SPECIAL CARE
NECESSARY FOR
EGGS IN SUMMER
Several important steps are nec
essary in order to produce quality
eggs in the summer, R. J. Richard
son, extension economist in poultry
marketing, says. Heat causes eggs
to deteriorate rapidly, he states, and
care should be taken to keep them
stored where the temperature is low
enough to prevent losses.
The first thing to do is remove the
male birds from the laying flock. If
this is done the eggs will be infertile,
and they will keep better, Richard
son says. The markets want infer
tile eggs during the spring and sum
mer.
The second step is to gather eggs
at least twice a day and place in a
wire container. This prevents heat
spots in an egg and .insures quick
cooling which tends to keep the air
cell small. The wire container al
lows free circulation of air around
the eggs and through the container.
Experimental data shows that it re
quires 13 hours to cool eggs to 68
degrees F. in a wire basket and 38
hours to cool eggs to 68 degrees F.
in an egg case. So cool the eggs
over night in wire containers and
then pack in the egg case.
In north Georgia spring houses
and under ground cellars are ideal
places to keep eggs before shipping.
In south Georgia an insulated room
or house which can be opened and
exposed to the night air will prove
satisfactory. Most of the nights are
sufficiently cool to keep the temper
ature around 70 degrees or lower.
The humidity in egg holding rooms
should be relatively high to prevent
excessive evaporation.
The third step is that of market
ing eggs often. Shipments or de
liveries should be made at least once
a week and preferably twice a week.
Eggs should not be washed. Pro
per management in the laying house
will eliminate an excessive number
of dirty eggs. Clean nesting ma
terial, clean litter on the floor and
clean dropping boards will prevent a
large number of dirty eggs. A wash
ed egg deteriorates much more quick
ly than one that still has the bloom
on the shell.
THINGS ONE SHOULD KNOW
For your cutting garden plants
this season: Giant ageratum, calen
dulas, cornflowers, cosmos, larkspur,
African marigolds, phlox drum
mondi, scabiosa and zinnias.
XXX
Raisins and figs will not stick to
the food chopper if a little flour
mixed with a few drops of lemon
juice is put through chopper with
the fruits.
t X t
The black beetle that attacks ast
ers may be destroyed by sprinkling
plants early in the morning or in
the evening with a solution made of
one teaspoonful of Paris green
(poison) and a sprinkling canful of
water.
XXX
Leaves of the cyclamen fall dur
ing the plant’s resting period just as
leaves fall from trees. Keep cycla
men in cool places and give water
enough so it will not dry up. New
leaves will appear in a few months.
XXX
Baking-powder biscuits are light
er and more flaky if dough is rolled
out thin and two cuts used for each
biscuit. Place one cut on top of the
other.
If the knife with which a merin
gue pie is cut is buttered pie will
cut much easier.
XXX
A sheet of waxed paper fastened
with toothpicks to the breast of a
chicken will prevent its coming
burned or dry while chicken is roast
ing.

suppose?”
“No,” said Freddie firmly, “none
