Plain Talk From President
Hoover
President Hoover recently
gave Congress a plain talk, and
put it right up to them. It is a
notorious fact that the past
several sessions of our congress
has been a game of politics,
grand-stand play, and child-lilce
fear or watchfulness by our
supposed statesmen.
Mrs. Calvin W. Parker
Will Run
Mrs. Calvin W. Parker, of
Waycross has definitely decided
to become a candidate for the
office of Public Service Com
mission, which her late husband
held. Calvin Parker was a
popular Georgian, and his wife
will no doubt make a good
official, besides South Georgia
should at least get some recogni
tion in state affairs.
Governor Russell Had Best Seek
Re-Election
If Governor Sussell wishes to
keep the friends he has made in
the state he will seek re-election,
for governor. He asked the
people for their support and
overwhelmningly received it,
and could have had the office
for a second term almost with
out opposition had he announced
earlier.
The people of Georgia are go
ing to elect Charles R. Crisp as
Senator and Governor Russell
may as well get that straight.

Radio Record Claimed For
Kingsland
By the use of what is called a
short wave set J. N. Wells local
radio expert gets broadcast pro
grams direct from Australia, he
has received several programs
direct from VK2ME at Sydney
and VK3ME at Melbourne. As
Australia is approximately
twelve thousand miles away—
the maxium possible distance on
this world of ours which is
twenty-four thousand miles in
circumference — Kingsland is
justified in claiming a worlds
record. Mr. Wells also gets 12RO

‘Flying With the Mail’ |
Three pilots on three huge
mail planes—one bound for San
Franciso, another nearing Chica
go and a third about to reach
New York—engage in a
sation with one another and
interlocutor at Newark, and
listeners in Los Angeles
every other city hear every word
of it almost as distinctly as if
all the speakers were in the
same room with the
set.
Could there have been a more
convincing demonstration of the
miracle wrought py radio?
rt suggests the thought that
if one-half ihe intelligence de
voted to mechanical progress
were applied to politics and
public affairs there might be a '
speedy solution of our problems,
There might be, and then
again there might be the
acuity of too much static on the
receiving end of the broadcast.

GEORGIA ROSES
I think when God made roses up
He practiced for a spell
Jpon a lot of other states
Until He made them wall.
He spread these blossoms every
where
That folks are blessed with
noses, ■
From Tennessee to Delaware—
Then He made Georgia roses!
He started in improvin’ ’em.
In Michigan they’re sweet,
I thought the roses in our yard
Were mighty hard to heat.
But that was long before I saw
Your garden, where reposes
a sight that filled my soul with
awe—
Your lovely Georgia roses!
I’ve seen ’em growin’ in the sun
In almost every state.
When I was just a little girl
i picked 'em at the gate!
God scattered ’em across the
land—
A blossom which discloses
Perfection only when your hand
Is holdin’ Georgia roses;

I. Jacob's Flight (■<■■■ 10).
1, The occ avion (‘27:3-1.It). Jacob
had by deceit and trickery secured
Isaac's blessing. Because of tliir
Esau determined to kill Jacob ns sno
gs his father was dead. When lie
hekah realized that Esau's anger we.
hot against Jacob, even to the po’
where he was likely to kill him. sli
urged him to flee to her hrothe
Laban. itehekah had a mixed m-.
tivp. She not only realized that re
malning at iiome meant death, but sic
realized that if Jacob remained lr
that land, lie would likely marry a
heathen woman and thus defeat. God’s
purpose regarding the covenant na
lion. This latter she pressed upon
Isaac as a motive for sending Jacob
away. Isaac at once recognized the
wisdom of her suggestion. Isaac, alive
to Jacob’s destiny, issued ins com
mand as to marriage and bestowed
upon him the covenant blessing which
had come from God Almighty to
Abraham (Gen. 17:1). This covenant
(Gen. 2S.T-4) embracedi
a. A numerous offspring -(v. 3).
b. Possession of the promised land
(v. 4).
c. Everything included In the Abra
hamle Covenant (v. 4).
2. The journey (c. 10). He went to
ward Haran. He was fleeing from an
outraged brother in order to save hi®
own life.
a. lie sure your sin will find you

in turn, was deceived by his children

God had planned for Jacob,

Jacob - soul was peculiarly tested,
He b.mi to i“ave home ami mother. On
^ way to Haran n gh overtook him
with a fhis ,,p low and thP
canopy ' o< ■n for a covering, it
was under-, s-mii circumstances that
the Lord .:-•• him the wonderful
vision at Bethel
1. He saw a ladder reaching from
earth to heaven (v, 12), This sug
gests a means of communication be
tween earth and heaven, between man
and God. It showed Jacob that In
spite of his awful sin (here was a
way to heaven for him. Jesus Christ
is the ladder connecting earth and
heaven for as (John 1:31; 14-6; Heb
10:19, 20).
2. lie saw angels of God upon Ihe
ladder (v. 12). They were ascending
and descending upon tin's ladder.
These angels were the divine helpers
to render needed assistance along
life’s wuy (Hell. 1 :14). Though un
seen, God's angeb-, guide and protect
ns on our earthly pilgrimage.
3. He saw the Lord standing above
the UuMcr (vv. i,»-i „ o To show
Jacob that the ladder did not merely
reach into space, Hie personal God np
peared and talked with him.
a. He declared that he was the God
of Abraham and Isaac (v. is), thus
assuring Jacob that the same hand
tlint Ms f>,il ' ers was ovor lllm -
b. He renewed the covenant as to
the land (v. 13). Though Jacob was
now fleeing from the land, and vet he
would return and his seed should yet
possess it.
c. He assured him of numerous seed
(v. 14). His desce”dants would spread
abroad- north, south, oast, west.
d. The divine presence to be with
Jacob (v. 15). Gorl promised not to
leave him till (lie covenant promise
should be fulfilled.
III. Jacob’s Vow (vv. 16-22).
God’s gracious visitation provoked
Jacob to make a vow. He set up as
a monument the stone which he had
had for a pillow. He named the place
“Bethel,” which means “the house of
God.” His vow included:
L The dedication of himself to God
(v. 21).
2. The establishment of worship
(w. 18, 19). He declared that thl
stone should be God's house.
3. The consecration of his posses
sions (v. 22) He obligated himself
to give back to God one-teuth of all
that was given him.

funds, and in the conduct
federal business generally. T he
finance picture gets a touch
from an old-time brush by
introduction of a resolution
bling foreign debtors of the
United States to end
troubles by paving in silver. The
Senate is thinking hard about
Philippine independence, with 8
date fifteen years hence as the
appointed time, but has
committed itself, as yet. '
The House has turned down
x measure looking toward the i
consolidation of the Amy and
Navy Departments, and the sum
of three and a quarter millions
is voted for the Navy. Hard
times do not block the appropria
tion o’f twenty-six thousand
dollars for committee expenses,
furniture, etc. The economy pro
gram gets another airltig but is
not in shape for final considera
tion in the House. No partiality
is shown for either cold places)
or hot. Bills prqpioting the wel- •
fare of Alaska, and for the con
trol of leprosy in Hawaii are
passed. The late criminal pro
■ eodings in Honolulu have made
the much talked about Pacific
Ale a hot place in more senses
than one, and the Senate has
assed a bill that will make ac- i
quittals in the case of a jury
disagreement a little harder to
obtain. This will remove one of
'e causes that led up to the re
cent shooting of a native under
conditions that cause most per
