Church Leaders Os Tomorrow
The First Baptist Church was honored by the pre
sence of young men and women from Mercer Univer
sity, Sunday evening. They had charge of the com
plete program. We hear so much of'what’s wrong’
with our colleges, we wish every Newton County
citizen could have heard the messages brought in
song and word, from these young Baptists, who will
be our church leaders of tomorrow. We realize full
well that the goal we strive for, in every endeavor,
cannot be accomplished, unless we had every student
dedicated to his, or her work.
You and I have the same opportunity. . .we speak
of the grown-ups. . .to set a beautiful example,
which our young people will want to follow. Can they
see Christ in you, parents? Your habits are in
stilled within your children. So it is our respon
sibility to lead the way for our precious young
people.

Shoplifting Is Destructive Influence
One of the most insidious and destructive in
fluences on the price level of thousands of luxu
ries and necessities on retailers' shelves is some
thing that few of us ever think about—shoplifting.
Shoplifting is extremely costly to the retailing
industry. Chambers of commerce and retail
associations sponsor clinics for merchants on shop
lifting, and there are films which are distributed
for use by service clubs and other groups.
Recently a spokesman for a large retailing
concern offered the suggestion that it might be a
good idea to encourage newspapers to comment on
the subject so that parents can be made aware of
the problem as it affects young people. His sug
gestion is eminently sound. Aside from the long
term influence on prices, shoplifting has other far
reaching effects. It can change the life of a young
person who might think of it as more of a prank
It could start a trend—we hope.
A group of singers, recruited from 60 high schools
and 13 colleges in the Greater Los Angeles area,
has become so fantastically successful that a movie
has been made about the members. What is most
heartening is that the group, called "The Young
Americans,’’ sings songs that have words and me
lodies — show tunes, spirituals and folk songs —
without such embellishments as "yeah, yeah, yeah,’’
and minus the grunts and groans that are fancied
by some “musicians.”
The group was organized to counter the stero
type image of the sloppy, delinquent, teenager, and
credit for this goes to Milton C. Anderson, who for
several years was supervisor of school music in
Cincinnati. He went to UCLA to get a master’s
degree, afterwards worked in television, and then
went back to teaching.
Disgusted with rock ’n roll music and many of
its practitioners, in 1962 he sent out a call for
talented youngsters and more than 3,000 respon
ded. From this turnout, 36 wholesome-looking,
gifted boys and girls were selected, representing a
veritable talent bank. They could sing, play in
struments, and dance, and they were good students
Mobile Homes Help Solve Problem
In the troubled world of Viet Nam. possible in
crease in taxes on national and state levels, in
creased costs of living, and inflationary blows to
all segments of industry - we turn to another in
creasing problem in American society: the housing
problem. The average American in search for a
housing investment for his family might well turn
out to be a frustrated buyer.
George Alexander, President of the Georgia Mo
bile Home Association, stated that in Georgia this
year. Mobile Homes accounted for more than 20%
of all single-unit housing starts and captured more
than 75% of all housing sales under the $12,500
mark.
John B. Manley, Executive Director of the Geor
gia Mobile Home Association, recently stated that
Lack of understanding of the modern techni
ques of forest management provides fertile ground
for the nourishment of prejudice and the develop
ment of unwise public policies that in the long run
will strike hardest at the best interests of the pub
lic.
A perfect example of this lack of understanding
was a recent picture of a logged-off area in the
California Redwoods. The picture purported to show
how the redwoods were being destroyed by the
ruthless exploitation of man. In actuality, the log
ged area was a sample, according to one timber
authority, of *'. . .the most modern and accepted
practices of harvesting forest crops.” If the pic
ture had been truly representative, it would have
shown miles and miles of healthy forest surround
ing this relatively isolated logged-off path. Anyone
flying over the forests of the U. S. has but to look
out the window of his aircraft to observe the check
erboard pattern of such patch clear-cutting in
many areas. Timberland is logged in this manner
where there are hills and tall trees and prevailing

are cases where a young adult, with an otherwise

a handicap.
Shoplifting is but another example of the lack
of respect for persons and property that is so
prevalent in the land today. Shoplifting is not a
prank. It is a symptom of character weakness
and a warning light to parents and authorities.
A basic rule of behavior that should be taught
every child at home and at school is to keep your

GOD DEMANDS
RIGHTEOUS RELATIONSHIPS
(TEMPERANCE)
Devotional Reading: Psalms
82.
Memory Selection: Seek good,
and not evil, that you may live;
and so the Lord, the God of
hosts, will be with you. Amos
5:14.
Intermediate - Senior Topic:
You Can’t Get By with Wrong
(Temperance).
Young People - Adult Topic:
God Demands Righteous Relat
ionships. (Temperance)
Last week we pondered the
biblical truth that God is Lord
of History. During the life and
ministry of Amos, practically all
the people of the earth believed
that each nation had its own
god. Jehovah was only the God
of the Hebrews.
In fact, it took the Hebrews
themselves quite a few centuries
to give up the idea that Jehovah
was a national deity.
In time, however, the Hebrews
discovered (or we should say
rather that God revealed to them)
the truth that there is but one
God, maker of heaven and earth,
and that the other so - called
“gods” are mistaken—and
usually corrupt—concepts of pri
mitive people.
Amos assailed the prevailing
idea of a national god, procl
aimed the Lordship of the One
True God, and insisted that fai
thfulness to that God and right
eousness in the dealing of man
with man were essential moral
requirements.
This brings us to the theme of
today’s lesson.
Amos, a shepherd of Tekoa,
who in his spare time prepared
the fruit of the sycamore tree
for human consumption (moon
lighted, as we would say today),
was filled with a deep sense of
the power and complete perfect
ion of God. Although he lived in
the Southern Kingdom, Amos cr
ossed over Into the Northern
Kingdom to denounce the idolatry
of king and people in that area.

To Appear At Palmer-Stone School
A nationally famous "Safety
Circus” will combine knowledge
with fun for Oxford school child

at Palmer stone school at 9 a.m.
on Monday, October 30, 1967.
The show Is part of a three
week tour that will take the "Sa

Georgia communities.
The circus features Police Of

"assistants.”
In 1946 Ernest Pressley was a
motorcycle officer with the Char

Charlotte Police Chief Frank
Littlejohn took Pressley off mo

school. He lias been in hundreds
of schools since and has loved
every minute of it.
Pressley's "Safety Circus”
show, featuring ten highly trained
dogs performing tricks illustrat
ing traffic safety practices, is a
mixture of child psychology and
show biz. The format is purpo
sely simple with the monologue
liberally sprinkled with safety

THE UNITED WAY
THE COVINGTON NEWS
(about the year 931 B. C.)hadset
up in the north a Hebrew kingdom
composed of ten of the twelve
tribes (all the tribes save Ben
jamin and Judah, which constitu
ted the Southern Kingdom). Jero
boam set up a golden calf in each
of two places, Bethel and Dan,
and bade the people adore Jeho
vah God by means of these im
ages. For this he was known al
ways as "Jeroboam, the son of
Nebat, who made Israel to sin.”
This Jeroboam was a man of
great ability, energy, and the
capacity to lead his fellows, but
he was lacking ih sound religious
conviction. God had honored the
Hebrews by selecting them to re
veal to mankind the character
and purpose of the Most High.
Jeroboam was not a man who
appreciated the significance and
importance of such divine proce
dure.
Os course, under Idolatry and
material prosperty (for the north
country was fertile, and its pop
ulation far exceeded that of the
kingdom of Judah to the south)
the people fell into corrupt ways
of living. Through Hosea (who
prophesied after Amos) God pro
nounced his solemn judgment on
the Northern Kingdom, Ephraim,
by saying: "Ephraim Is joined
to Idols: let him alone” (Hosea
4:17).
The message of the prophets
constituted the glory of the Heb
rew people. The Northern King
dom had the benefit of no pro
phetic messenger save Amos—
the central character in today’s
lesson—who denounced them. Of
ficials in the Northern Kingdom
had become so corrupt that the
taking of bribes and the turning
aside of the poor as they sought
justice had become routine.
There were probably people in
the Northern Kingdom who dis
approved of this. “Theprudent,”
however, kept silent. “Seek good,
and not evil,” cried Amos, "that
ye may live. . .Hate the evil
love the good, and establish jud
gment in the gate: it may be that
the Lord God of hosts will be
gracious unto the remnant of
Joseph.”

IDA Grant To Help
Nearby Counties
Approval of a $44,590 grant to
help continue a program of plan
ning for economic growth In a
nine - county northeast Georgia
district was announced today by
the Economic Development Ad
ministration, U. S. Department of
Commerce.
The EDA grant will help pay
the administrative costs of the
Northeast Georgia Area Planning
and Development Commission of
Athens for a year. The Com
mission, which Includes mem
bership from the nine counties,
will Invest $14,865 in cash and
services to meet the $59,455 total
cost of the program.
EDA designated the Northeast
Georgia Economic Development
District on April 10, 1967. The
district includes Barrow, Clarke,
Greene, Jackson, Madison, Mor
gan, Oconee, Oglethorpe and Wal
ton counties.
Development Districts are the
middle layer In the EDA program
—between the single-county re
development area and multi-state
economic development regions.
The idea is to encourage coun
ties to pool their talents and re
sources to combat economic pro
blems that cross county lines and
help create jobs and boost income
in lagging areas.
Smallpox Is
Thing Os Past
Easier, quicker transportation
has brought joy to the hearts of
tourists, cash to the coffers of
travel agents, and complications
to the lives of public health
authorities. With people tearing
around the continents in less time
than it once took to tour the
home county, and with contag
ious diseases still part of the
landscape in many places, the
possibility of picking up a little
something not on the tourist’s
shopping list has naturally in
creased.
Not that there is any special
cause for concern. U. S. health
regulations are strict in requir
ing that people bound for foreign
lands be armed with immunizat
ion against disease hazards. Qu
arantine procedures are effec
tive in barring immigrants or
returning travelers with contag
ious diseases. Slip-ups are in
frequent.
Still, the U. S. Surgeon Gen
eral, Dr. William H. Stewart,
feels that you can’t be too care
ful, and recently Issued a re
minder about smallpox vaccinat
ion. Smallpox has become ex
tremely rare here; but, as Dr.
Stewart pointed out, no one Is
100% safe while the disease ex

Christmas Seal association, in
terested in combating all dis
eases including TB, suggests that
you note the Public Health Ser
vice recommendations.
All children should receive
their basic or "primary” vacc
ination against smallpox between
their first and second birthdays.
They should be revaccinated at
the time of enrolling in elem
entary school.
All persons who plan to travel
to other continents, and haven’t
been immunized against small
pox infection within three years,
should be revaccinated. If sm

Covington and Newton County has
launched a United Fund Drive and
given every working man and wo
rn an in our county the opportunity
to contribute their fair share
covering the fourteen campaigns
of the drive.
In this county the United Fund
Drive has been a tremendous
success. Here are just a few
of the reasons why.
One drive saves campaign
costs and in Newton County this
cost is only three per cent. One
drive saves time for everyone
as many volunteers concentrate
their efforts to raise money at
the same time during a short
two week period rather than hav
ing smaller groups constantly
promoting one drive after another
throughout the year.
One drive assures the giver
that his or her money goes to
legitimate and approved services
because the funds are watched
over by reputable local business
men and women who believe in
seeing the money go where it does
the most good.
The one united drive provides
an easy pledge plan for giving
enough for all agencies for a
full year, thus distributing the
responsibility of supporting com
munity needs among the people
as a whole rather than just bu
siness firms and industries.
The slogan “One Gift Works
Many Wonders” should not be

It appears that our world to
day, though it may have seen
some remarkable changes, has
enough evil about it that only the
death of the Son of God can set
us free from sin and death. Most
of us regret that we were that
kind of people before God’s gr
ace became effectual in our li
ves. This is the picture we get
from reading Paul’s Letter to
the Ephesians. (Chater 2). But
we also get the idea that our
Lord continues to minister to
our needs. (Chapter 3).
Among the many facets of et
ernal life which we enjoy now
are: (1) the revelation of what
God our Father is like, (2) the
strength which comes from our
Savior’s living presence, (3)love
which is so wonderful and great
that in quality and extent, it is
above measure, (4) and fellow
ship with each other and with
Him whose glory fills the Ch

Many Campains

In this county. Over 3000 per
sons have been helped by the
United Fund since it was organ
ized.
In this campaign all the work
ers work a little in the solici
tation of funds. But, in the lea
dership ranks of the United Fund
Drive two men have shouldered
the responsibility of organization
and worked a lot.
E. G. Lassiter, president of the
Covington-Newton County United
Fund, and Ed Robinson, United
Fund Drive Chairman, have done
a great job each year in making
this giant fund drive a success.
They are to be congratulated for
their efforts and time spent, and
recognized for their achieve
ments in behalf of their commun
ity and county.
Let’s talk about your fair
share. If you are paid by the
hour, you are asked to pledge one
hour’s pay per month. If you
are salaried to $7,000 you are as
ked to give 6/10 of one per cent
of your annual Income. If you
are salaried over $7,000, you
are asked to give one per cent
of your annual Income. Ask
yourself if you don’t owe at least
this to the community and county
where you work and raise your
family to meet- the needs that
are in this county.
You might consider this as a
sort of tithe that you owe the
Lord, because this is also the
Lord’s work. Besides, very few
of us even come close to con
tributing the Lord’s ten per cent
of our earnings to the church of
our choice.
Paul has so much to say in
these two chapters that we want
to hear all he has to say and
see all he has to show us. This
is music to our ears for herein
is a description of a decisive
change in the human situation,
a new temple has been built for
God to dwell in. We the mem
bers of the Church are that tem
ple; We are living participants
in a fellowship which is both
redeemed and redeeming.
We sense that God, whose po
wer through Christ now works in
us, is also wanting to work th
rough us and with anticipation,
He awaits our concent. God’s
willingness for us to call upon
Him is so great and His concern
and love for us so abundant that
we may feel free to say with the
Apostle Paul (Ephesians 3:
20-21): “Now unto him that is
able to do exceeding abundant
above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that wor
keth in us, unto him be glory
in the Church by Christ Jesus
throughout all ages, world with
out end. Amen.”
to do. It requires self control
and self sacrifice, and that st
rengthens character and builds
up a strong personality.
When we do things just be
cause we like to and want to that
demands no effort on our part.
Morally we gain strength by over
coming resistance, just as the
athlete develops his muscles by
counter exercise.
Whatever the matter under
consideration, we should be sure
that no moral principle is at
stake, for of course, no one sh
ould allow himself to be induced
against his will to do any thing
morally wrong. But If it Is
merely a question of ways and
means, one might accomplish
more by co-operation than by
opposition.
So, don’t just "flop” if th
ings don't go your way! Meet
the challenge, and do the thing
that should be done, whether you
like it or not.
This is especially true in com
munity service; in church work,
and school work.
In deciding whether to co
operate with others or not the
Christian has the advantage of
going to his Lord for direction;
he can pray about the matter,
and be guided by his Lord’s
leading.
