missionaries who challenged us
to a new world vision. Mrs.
Jones Ragland, from Beirut,
Lebanon, had some special ex

see the world and its needs
more vividly.

।to Lebanon?” This question
raised for her insights that
have been helpful for many.
There were men who rushed
into their home to shoot the
rebels from their balcony.
Their next door neighbor was
killed, but all of this time the
presence of Christ was felt.
One of the most stirring ex
periences was regarding Clau
dia, who was a problem child
in their school. Everything she
did was wrong. They began to
pray especially for Claudia and
then one day Mr. Ragland said,
“Lets’ pray specifically that
Claudia will be saved tonight.”
Mrs. Ragland later went over
i and put her arm around Clau- ।
. dla and told her how much
I they loved her. She still re- J
' acted hatefully. |■
I At midnight a knock came j
at their door -it was Claudia. ; ■
Before she left she had ac
cepted Christ and now she is I
an active Christian in their
community. Jesus said, "Lo,
I am with you always”. Yes,
as they went preaching and
teaching Jesus did go to Le
banon.

Saturday Last Day
For Registration In
Morrow-Lake City
The final opportunity for boys of Little League age in the
Morrow-Lake City community to register for 1965 Little
League is Saturday, March 27. Representatives will be at
the Morrow Fire Station from 1 to 4 p.m. to sign up players
I between 8 and 15.
Lights for the field at Morrow School have been received
and installation is being delayed only because of the recent
i rains which left the field too wet for work to begin. However,
the lights are expected to be in use by the date of the first
I game and several night games will be played during the
1965 season.
The Little League program is an excellent character-build
ing program and teaches the boys some of the rudiments of
competition. In addition the boys become a part of a super
vised activity of athletic and physical training. Parents of
boys in the Morrow-Lake City area are encouraged to re
gister their boys March 27 in order that they might partici
pate in this worthwhile Little League season.

Christian City Fund
Drives For SIOO,OOO
A drive among the Greater
Atlanta business community to
raise SIOO,OOO for the Chris
tian City Building Fund cam
paign will get under way this
week, James H. Aldredge,
chairman of the campaign, an
nounced.
The business community drive
is phase 111 of Christian City’s
month-long campaign, Mr. Al

The first two phases were a
mail campaign, directed at At
lanta business and civic lea
ders, and a Crusade of Child
ren, a door-to-door drive by
the children of the community.
This Crusade, which took
place last week, was highly
successful, Mr. Aldredge said,
although the number of workers
was not as great as had been
expected.
Average collection per wor
ker in the crusade was $lO,
he said.
A total of 1,000 volunteers
are expected to take part in
the business community drive,
Mr. Aldredge stated.
“We expect this part of the
Christian City campaign to put
us near or over our goal of
$300,000,” he added.
Christian City is a non-sec
tarian, church-sponsored home
for children being built at Red
Oak, Ga. in South Fulton Coun
ty under the auspices of the

GUY LINES
Not long ago this corner was
apprized of a specfic sltutation,
A unmarried Negro woman had
seven children. She didn’t mind
having them, and keeping on
having them, for every time a
new one arrived she was able
to tack on another monthly sum
for him, to add to her govern
ment stipend. Chances are the
child cost only a few dollars
a month, the way she raised
him, and therfore she made a
orettv neat profit.
A “good colored brother”
employed in a menial task at
a local place of business made
the remark the other day that
he was “one of 32 children.”
Yes, his father, married twice,
had 22 children by his first
wife and 10 by his second. Ima
gine!
How long can such things con
tinue?
Certain classes of white peo
ple are bad enough but when
you compound that with Negroes,
who have even fewer scruples
you reach the nauseating stage.
