Georgia Power
Sponsors New
Wiring Program
The Georgia Power Com
pany’s rural division, in co
operation with the State De
partment of Education’s vo
cational agriculture service,
is sponsoring a new farm
wiring program with $3,000
worth of electric farm
equipment as awards.
Edwin I. Hatch, power
company president, an
nounced this week that the
purpose of the new pro
gram is to encourage better
farm wiring practices. Each
man on whose farm a wiring
demonstration is held will
have his choice from a se
lected list of electric equip
ment.
A total of 28 demonstra
tion projects is scheduled.
These projects will include
classroom instruction and
field demonstrations on the
farms.
Local and area vocational
agriculture teachers will
conduct the program, with
Georgia Power Company
rural engineers assisting.
The instructional phase will
deal with the proper wiring
of all farm structures.
This program has been
commended highly by Jack
P. Nix, state school superin
tendent.
Olin Ginn, manager of the
Georgia Power Company’s
rural division, pointed out
that with 231,854 of Geor
gia Power’s 877.559 custom
ers living on farms or in
rural areas, the new pro
gram will offer many oppor
tunities for farmers to learn
and participate in better
wiring practices.
Program details are avail
able from the rural division
of Georgia Power Company.

Let us consider MEN AS THEY ARE, MEN
AS GOD WANTS THEM TO BE, AND MAK
ING MEN AS GOD WANTS THEM TO BE.
Men are considered mature at twenty years
of age, but that is not true of them as a
whole personality. At thirty years, forty
years, fifty years, or any age, the total per
son has not reached the fulfillment of all
that is potential in him as God created him,
and wants him to be. Men become physical
ly mature, but they are a sorry lot in respect
to what God wants them to be. They are spir
itually dead, and in deep need to be awak
ened by the call that comes from on high.
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from
the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Eph. 5:14. By this light the whole person
advances to the fulfillment of what God cre
ated men to be. Gen. 6:5-6. Points out where
men are not meeting the requirements that
make them what God wants them to be. And
God saw that the wickedness of men was
great in the earth, and that every imagina
tion of the thoughts of his heart was only
evil continually. And it repented the Lord
that he had made man upon the earth, and
it grieved him at his heart..
Man's mind, and his imagination, had made
him a degenerate plant. Jer. 2:21. Yet I had
planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right
seed, how then art thou turned into the de
generate plant of a strange vine unto me?
The degenerateness of men is a fact that we
must overcome. Peter, close as he was to the
Lord, denying the Lord, is an example of
how far men are from being what God wants
them to be, and of how the law of our flesh
makes captive the law of our mind.
In Rom. 7:18 Paul says, I know that in me,
that is my flesh dwelleth no good thing, and
in Romans 8:7 the carnal mind is enmity
against God: for it is not subject to the law
of God, neither indeed can be, and in Ro-

BEWARE A RETIREMENT TOWN
THAT IS FULL OF COLONELS
A delightful retired couple,
the Elmer J. Browns, has just
been booby-trapped by the
United States Army. With an
assist from the Navy.
The Browns are civilians.
Mr. Brown, a corporation man,
reached executive level before
retiring. He was well-fixed on
money. He and Mrs. Brown
thought they’d like to settle in
an upper-level retirement com
munity where people had the
social background and where
withal that they had.
"We chose a community that
had been known for a good
many years as a fine place to
retire,” Mr. Brown said. "Our
mistake was not in asking 'For
Whom?’ ”
"It was only a few miles from
a large Army base. It was top
heavy with retired officers. What
we know now — but didn’t at
the time — is that many of the
well-known retirement spots are
well-known because they are
near Army or Navy bases and
have been publicized by the
good living service pensionscan
buy ...”
Mr. Brown laid out a map
of the U. S. "Look — you can
see for yourself. In the Los
Angeles-San Diego area you
have some famous reitrement
towns, as you do around San
Francisco. And there are ma
jor Army and Navy installations
all over the place. Then you’ve
got these inviting towns in Texas
and North Carolina — Army
and Air Force. And all the way
from Norfolk to Arlington in
Virginia are communities that
bulge with retired officers.
"And a community heavy
with military officers is not the
mans 7:22-23, I delight in the law of God
after the inward man, but I see another law
in my members, warring against the law of
my mind, and bringing me into captivity to
the law of sin which is in my members.
To realize just how degenerate the flesh is,
try to imagine what life would be if there
were no restraints at all placed upon our
carnal natures. By restraining the flesh we
have a kind of existence, but it is not such
an existence as God intended for men to
have. Jesus said, I am come that they might
have life, and have it more abundantly, John
10:10. Jesus is the true vine, and when we
are truly branches of the true vine, we will
be what God wants us to be. To have life like
God wants us to have it, it is necessary that
we be born again. We must give up, and
give ourselves to God. Walking by the spirit
(the vine), and not by the flesh. Walking by
the Spirit we become new and wonderful
creatures, far removed from the degenerate*-
ness of the carnal nature. 2 Peter 1:4. Says,
whereby (i.e. in and through the Spirit) are
given unto us exceeding great and precious
promises; that by these ye might be partak
ers of the divine nature, having escaped the
corruption that is in the world through lust.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit,
if so be that the spirit of God dwell in you.
Now if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ,
he is none of his, and if Christ be in you, the
body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit
is life because of righteousness. But if the
spirit of him who raised up Christ from the
dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ
from the dead shall also quicken your mor
tal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
Rom. 8:9-10-11. The life of our quickened
mortal bodies will be fruit of the Spirit, not
fruit of the flesh The life God wants us all
to have.

continued, “is making an

Mrs. Brown hurried to ex
plain this didn’t mean they were
criticizing retired officers. "They
are some of the most interesting
people you met. They’ve been
places. They’re socially inclined.
They’re sophisticated ...”
"That’s right,” Mr. Brown
broke in. "They’re polished,
they’re balanced, and they be
have themselves."
"It’s just that they’re clan
nish,” Mrs. Brown explained.
They both went on to tell of
their experience with the retired
officers and their wives. They
met many of them, under good
auspices, and found them
gracious. But they seldom saw
them again socially. They found
that the officer couples, while
occasionally exchanging invita
tions with civilians, usually con
fined their activities to other
officer couples, leaving civilian
couples to themselves.
"At first we thought it was
snobbishness,” Mr. Brown said.
"But it’s not that. All through
their careers these officers and
their wives have been trained to
be a bit leery of fraternizing
with civilians. Also, they have
been isolated from civilians,
don’t understand their undisci
plined ways. They feel more
comfortable with fellow-officers.”
The Browns lived in their
chosen community for a couple
of years, decided they didn’t
want a community where about
half the social gatherings were
off-limits to them, and moved.

SUNDArsI SfgMON
THIS SEASON
Is this the year you will take
some of the "i" from the holiday
that is known as Christmas?
Indeed, Christmas is the sea
son of joy. It is the greatest of
all holidays, around the world.
Vet. Christmas began as a
Holy Day, not a holiday.
Through the years much has
been added to the observance of
Christmas.
You need not cut down on
your gift giving, nor prepare
a less sumptuous meal. And,
let that feeling of friendship for
all the world surge within you.
Still, look deeper, and seek
to dwell more in your thoughts
upon the deep significance of the
First Christmas. Remember the
birth and the life of Christ upon
earth. Consider the meaning of
Christianity.
You will find, perhaps, a holi
day and a Holy Day, one you
shall long remember.

THE OLD TIMER *
From Ruth E. Wood, Dele
van, Wisconsin: I remember
when we lived on the farm
and my father worked in a near
by town. He often worked the
night shift and, on these oc
casions, had to leave home
about five P.M., as his only
means of transporation was by
horse and buggy.
One night my mother became
quite ill. \Ve had no phone so
my brother, age nine, was in
structed to get up, light a
lantern, and walk over a 1/2
mile to a neighbor who had a
phone.
My mother was subject to
pleurisy. One time when she had
an attack, she asked my brother
to make a "mustard plaster” to
apply to her painful back. He
followed her instructions well,
but mother forgot to tell him it
should be cooled a few moments
before being applied to the skin.
The resulting burn she recevied
was more severe than the
original illness.

the bills are paid. The money will be saved, automatically,

to build your own home. They help keep AMERICA the
secure, free land you want for your family—maintain a
