and many others, Those whose
names I fail to mention will
forgive me I know.
Covington opened her heart
and her arms to the boys and
made them feel “at home away
from home”. You good people
will never know just how much
that meant, then, and means
today. I shall never forget the
good people I met and knew;
the lovely homes where I, just
a lonesome lad, was made to
feel at home and like one of the
family. These good people con
tributed something to my life
which I have never lost. My
gratitude abounds, today.
So, you see, coming to Cov
ington for Revival, is kind of
like coming home again. Driv
ing around I can see some of
the old landmarks, I thrill at
the beauty of lovely homes, and
the progress of the churches
and schools. I still see and hear
some of the names of the fami
lies know in days gone by, and
thrill at the making of new
friends, some of them the de
scendents of folks I knew and
loved.
It delights my heart to see
the work going on at First Bap
tist Church. I can hardly beli
|eve my eyes when I see what
| they are doing byway of re
modeling the sanctuary. This is
going to be a thing of beauty
to the glory of God.
Brother Edgar Callaway is
still leading his people in a pro
gressive manner. Covington is
blessed by the good ministers
God has given her through the
years, and Edgar Callaway and
| his fine family are among God’s
| finest.
1t is good towns like Coving
ton, and her solid citizens, who
hold the world together. Let
me call upon both to hold Ged
and Christ high in love; adora
tion; praise and service. Some
lone has said, “Tell me about
| your churches, and I'll tell you
what kind of town you have.”

CHRISTMAS TREES
A Cooperative Extension
Service forester believes there
is an opportunity for expand=-
ing Christmas tree production
in Georgia. B. R. Murray ex
plained that Georgians use
about one million Christmas
trees each year. Only about 15
percent of them are grown in
Georgia. This means, Mr. Mur=-
ray stated, that over 800,000
‘are shipped in from Canada and
the northern states.
