“LEARNING WHAT IS ,
IMPORTANT”
The late Dr. Lawrence
Wharton tells the story about
a young student who was dis
appointed in his work at the
university. College had not
been what he thought he had
a right to expect. He looked
back over his years at the un
iversity and diagnosed the sit- !
uation in this manner. “My
| trouble,” he said, “was that I '
majored in minors.” This young '
man had emphasized the unim- ’
portant and failed to give pro- 1
per attention to the true values 1
in life.
This is the reason many of ’
us fail in life. We get our
values all mixed up. Men and J
women fail in their marriage (
relationship, because they ma
jor in the minors. Business (
men fail, because they ignore
major principles and become ,
absorbed in secondary prin
ciples. Many stumble through 1
life and, at the end of the 1
earthly journey, feel that life (
has been wasted. Why? Per- ।
haps it is because we looked
in a crystal ball and decided
that only the glittering and
temporary things of life were ;
important. j
I talked with a man the oth- >
er day who has been majoring
in minors for the last two de
cades. His life is warped and i
twisted. He has lived by the ,
McNiven of Athens. Among
other houseguests of the Pratts
this week, is W. T. Evans of
Macon.
Using scientifically designed charts
and tables—requiring only about one

tial. And your only obligation is to

philosophy that every desire
ought to be satisfied. For a
long time, he felt that all in
herent desires should know
gratification. He stained his
soul; broke the hearts of those
who loved him, as well as
many innocent people; and
almost ruined his health. “I
have been blind, stupid and
selfish,” he told me. I agreed
with him. “Now,” he continu
ed, “I want to get back on the
right track. If God can use me,
I would be mighty grateful. I
am willing to do anything to
get my life straightened out.”
I told him this, “God can
use you, and the secret of get
ting back on the main track
is a simple one. First, ask God
to forgive your past sins. Sec
ond, tell God you are ready to
go to work and make your life
count for something worth
while. Remember, Isaiah said,
‘Here am I, send me.’ Finally,
spend the rest of your life do
ing what you know is right.”
I am surprised at the num
ber of people with whom I
have the privilege of talking,
who fail to live up to the best
they know. Most of us would
stay out of trouble if we could
find the courage and determi
nation to do what we k-now to
be right in every situation.
Jesus, in the Sermon on the
Mount, told his followers to
“seek first the kingdom of
God.” Forget what you want
and find out what God’s will
is for your life. To discover
His will and apply it to all of
life, is to find the secret of
abundant living.

old son, whose injury at birth |
had rendered him unable to 1
walk or talk. With the parents
acceptance of Christ, they had
realized that this beloved, in
capacitated son with his alert
mind and ready smile, had been
the means of bringing them into
the Kingdom Not Made With
Hands.
Then at the close of a deep
ly moving sermon by the pas
tor, Rev. Edgar A. Callaway,
the doors of the church were
opened in the customary man
ner. Down the aisle came a
mother with all six of her
children —Mrs. Richard George,
Dickey, Carol. Dianne, Patricia,
who came with their letters,
and Billy and Raymond upon
profession of faith. It was a
moment of spiritual truth.
There was no impressive pro
gram, or dedication of new
buildings to set Sunday apart
as a memorable day for the
First Baptist Church members;
but. chances are it will live in
our hearts as a day of inspira
tion and spiritual highlight.
The challenge of the March
of Dimes Drive still confronts
us. There is yet time to should
er our obligation, even without
an official chairman of the
Drive, if through our clubs
and organizations, or individ
ually, we get our contributions
to Charles Burnett in Oxford.
Mr. Burnett, who served as
Newton Co. Chairman last year,
but was unable to again accept
the responsibility, is giving of
his services, unofficially, to
get what funds we collect, in
to Atlanta Headquarters, for
Newton County.
We have many times had to
call on the National Founda
tion for help in treatment of
and immunization against polio
for our children. Inevitably, we
shall in the future have to
again seek their aid. Our faces
will not be quite so red, when
we hold out our hands, if we
each accept his obligation, and
get in our donations toward
the promotion of the National
Foundation’s Program of such
prime importance to all of us.

Tenn. Hearts are saddened al
so at the passing of Mrs. Wil
i liam S. Hay, who with her
1 husband, who was a Newton
| County Presbyterian pastor,
I made this their home for a
। time. The finest tribute which
’ can be paid those, going home,
I is that in the hearts of those
i who know them best. Such a
I tribute was paid Mrs. Hay by
I her grandson, Sam Burney
■ Hay, Jr., with whose family
she had made her home since
: before his birth. “She was”, he
said, “the embodiment of
I Christianity”. If she had no
: other, this would be a fitting
monument to her memory; and
the beautiful heritage she has
passed on to not only her chil
dren, but her grandchildren,
shall continue to bear fruit.
Heeding reminders of bird
' lovers, we have set up a
“bird-cafeteria” outside our
window. We say “cafeteria”
advisedly, for our better half
never does things by halves—
if a miniature bird feeder
will feed a few birds, then a
2x5 foot piece of beaverboard
on the hedge will accommodate
more feathered friends, for
whom there is no room at the
feeder. Well, the result is far
superior to television; and
moreover you actually get to
bed before the late show'! All
the actors are there—Maurice
Chevalier—Mr. Mockingbird;
Prince Charming The Cardinal.
Grackles in their jet suits,
who mimic Jimmy Durante;
Towhees in their chic costumes,
whose gentleness remind you
of Loretta Young; with the
every present Sparrows, Jays
and Woodpeckers. One charac
ter to whom we have become
attached is a little sparrow, we
have named “Mr. Lost-it” —
and he did. How we don’t know,
but nevertheless, he appeared
minus his tai! - feathers one
morning. Aside from a little
difficulty in balancing, which
art is aided, we are told by
bird - authorities by his mis
sing plumage, “Mr. Lost-it”
has suffered no demotion in
his social status among the
feathered contingent. Actually,
i he seems to be capitalizing up
on his handicap, and demands
his place at the table, which
his charitable friends tolerant
ly relinquish to him: and which
ordinarily he would have to
raise a scene to secure. Many
of these little creatures winter
png with us have definite per
sonalities — and are a joy to
observe. With ice and snow
cutting off their food supply,
they are dependent upon “hu
i man kindness” to keep them
! alive.
So, let’s not forget to show
। them some of this trait by put
ting out a little suet and baby
ehick feed, or wild bird seed,
as we pursue our daily tasks of
weathering winter, and in our
* case, of— “SWEEPIN’ UP".

like Mother’s with one recipe shared between two little future
cooks! Mother’s easy recipe is divided in half to make one 5-incn
pie and two 3-inch pies, just daughter's size. Simplified crust uses
pastry mix; the appropriate apple variety for flavor-retention is the
tart and tangy Washington Winesap. Just as Mother does, little
girls sprinkle Winesap apples with coconut, grated orange ana
lemon rind for tropical touch to pie.
