MISSIONARY SOCIETY
MEETS.—
T'ne business meeting of the Wom
an’s Missionary Society was held at
the First Presbyterian church on Mon
day afternoon. Mrs. W. J. Brunson,
president, was in charge. She gave
an outline of the talk given at the
Group Conference in Cairo. The topic
was: “Christ Shall Not Pass This Way
Again.” Some thoughts gleaned from
this talk were: We need unity in
prayer and do not need some great
calamity to bring us together. Two
countries, Switzerland and Canada,
have laws for Sabbath observance
and Christian America has no such
laws.
Thirteen members were present.
Donations were given for a general
fall cleaning of the church and
grounds. The ladies decided to have
blessing boxes for receiving funds for
Christian education. Mrs. W. M. Mc-
Leod gave a report on foreign mis
sions and Mrs. M. G. Clark gave a re
port on home mission study and said
that an all day meeting would be held
at the church Thursday.
Each member will bring a covered
dish and an hour of Christian fellow
ship will be enjoyed. Selfdenial en
velops will be received on that day
and the'offering given to home mis
sions.
Mrs. Arden Parker gave a talk
on religious education. The presi
dent stated that Red Cross work
would be considered as social service
work. Mrs. B. B. Clarke, secretary of
spiritual life work, asked that each
member take a copy of the prayer list
and to pray daily for each other and
the members in Southwest Georgia.
Mrs. J. 11. Hanna gave the Bible
study for the afternoon on ’’Taking
God at His Word.” Other members!
present were: Mesdames G. B. Gar
wood. A. £. Kelly. R. F. Kinley. Bar-!
low Bush. R. E. U heeler. L. M. Bar
ber. A. M. Yeomans. aiid two visitors,
Mesdames Percy M ard and Carrie

VEG ET ABL E GROW ERS
ASKED TO INCREASE
ACREAGE FOR 1912
Vegetable growers of Seminole
county have been asked to increase
their 1942 acreages to help meet the
Food-for-Freedom goals set up as a.
part of the total agricultural defense
program in the United States, H. G.
Woods, Chairman of the Seminole!
county USDA Defense Board, said
this week.
Georgia farmers next year are ex-!
pected to step up their fresh vege- ■
table plantings by about 5,000 acres. |
This does not cover contemplated acre-|
age increases in vegetables for pro
cessing. nor farm gardens.
In discussing the vegetable goals, I
Mr. Woods pointed out that everyone !
i in the United States must be well fed i
if the nation is to make the most ef-|
fective effort toward national defense. I
One of the health benefits of improv. !
ed diets, he declared, would be more!
stamina to stand up under the stress-!
es of the times, and particularly dur
ing the period of top-speed production
of defense materials.
Vegetables, particularly leafy green
and yellow vegetables, constitute one I
of the most important sources of en
ergy and sound health, he said. An
adequate diet for the people of thp
United States, he added, would require !
the production and consumption of!
more than twice the vitamin-right ve
getables produced annually between
1936 and 1940.
Mrs. Clara Johnson is the guest
here this week of he; daughter, Mrs.
J. L. McCracken.
“Small Grains in Georgia” is the
title of a new bulletin available from
the Agricultural Extension Service in
Athens.
