seniors spending the weekend on
campus as guests of the college.
According to Dr. Barbara Beis
wanger, director of the Modern
Dance Club, Rena assisted in creat
ing several of the dances to be pre
sented on the program and will
appear in “Come Sweet Death,” a
religious dance; “The Age of An
xiety” and “Ceremonials.”
The Modern Dance Club was or
ganized in 1944. Since that time it
has grown to be one of the largest

Lime Pasture Now.
County Agent Says
By W. T. MIDDLEBROOKS
County Agent
Pastures of common and Coast
al Bermuda grass should receive a
basic fertilizer such as 500 pounds
of 4-12-12 per acre in February.
When lime applications are need
ed, February and March is a good
time to make this application. As
a rule most of our soil will take
a ton of agricultural lime per acre
to start with and further needed
application may be determined by
having soil analyzed .
Additional nitrogen should be '
applied as top dressing in June
and July. Recommended rates'are
50 to 100 pounds of nitrogen per
acre .
Experiment Station research work
has shown us that the quality of
grazing can be improved and pro
duction per acre stepped up by the
use of adequate fertilizer prac
tices. At the Coastal Plain Experi
ment Station at Tifton tests made
on a pasture of Coastal Bermuda j
grass showed 262 pounds of beef
per acre were secured where no'
nitrogen was applied. Where 50
pounds of nitrogen was applied
Coastal Bermuda grass produced
315 pounds of beef per acre. Ap
plication of 100 pounds of Nitrogen 1
■ per acre increased the yield to I
496 pounds of beef per acre.
Houston County beef cattle pro- ’
ducers and dairymen can have a I
much better grazing program for 1
their cattle by following the above
recommendations backed by actual
tests at our two Experiment Sta- 1
tions. Increased yields of beef or
milk per cow or per acre means
more profit to the producer.
We have several hundred acres
of Coastal Bermuda now and there
should be ample stolons available
to apy cattle grower who wishes
to plant an acreage this spring.
From now to April is the best
time to make this planting and ex- i
pect good results. Plant in 3 to 4 1
foot rows and cultivate by plowing j
to keep down weed growth until ;
grass can get started. An applica-,
tion of Nitrogen directly on the
grass row will help it get started 1
on new planting. Grass planted in \
early spring will give a complete i
cover by late summer when prop- j
erly handled.

SCRIPTURE; Matthew 22:34—23:39.
DEVOTIONAL READING: Jeremiah
22:3-5, 13-16.
Hypocrites
Lesson for March I, 1953
<i T_l YPOCRITE” is a bad word.
You should be careful about
calling people hypocrites, because
perhaps you do not quite mean it.
A hypocrite is not the same thing
as a weak Christian, or a stum
bling Christian, or a half-developed
Christian, a 50 per cent Christian.
These are pretty common; the
regular simon-pure hypocrite is a
rarer bird. A hypocrite is a person
who is knowingly and intentionally
bad, and has no intention of being
anything else; but he puts on a
mask or disguise of goodness. II
is only a front, he does not meai.
a bit of it. He is just a devil play
ing angel. Such persons may be
somewhat rare, but they do exist.
They are to be found in the church,
they are high up in the state. No
walk of life is altogether free from
them.
I* * *
They Will Not Lift A Finger
Almost the entire 23rd chapter
of Matthew is devoted to Jesus’
slashing attack on the hypocrites
he knew. The modern reader will
be struck by cer
of all eras. Jesus, K
to today’s big city
preachers, pro- Hr- Foreman
lessors of theology, Bible teachers
and so on. He did not mean to say
! that they were all hypocrites but
definitely some of them were.
! One mark of the hypocrite is that
he preaches but does not practice.
As Jesus puts it, he lays heavy
burdens on other men but he will
not lift a finger to help carry such
a load himself. Common modern
! examples of this kind of person
i include the politician who yells dis
i tractedly about• dishonesty in the
: other party but hush-hushes all the
| irregularities in his own; the busi
ness man who demands to know
why we can’t have honesty in gov
ernment while all the time he and
his firm are carrying on crooked
deals; the young man who de
mands that his sweetheart must
be true to him while he carries on
with one girl after another. Insist
ing that others live up to a stand
ard we will not accept ourselves,
is what Jesus called hypocrisy.

They Want To Face
I The Cameras
I A cartoon shows a football team
I in a huddle. The captain is saying:
“Let’s try a run around the other
end. Never mind if you’re not
facing the television cameras!’’
Any one who can remember see
ing the great political conventions
of last summer on television will
recall how time after time the roll
call would be slowed down by
some one demanding a poll of the
delegation. Shrewd observers re
marked that in numbers of cases
there was no real doubt about the
accuracy of the vote; there was no
good reason except that for a few
brief moments the man who asked
for the re-count would have the
cameras trained on him. This play
ing for the grand-stand, scene
stealing, all that sort of thing, is
part of what our Lord calls being a
hypocrite. In fact the very word
“hypocrite’’ in Greek means an
actor.
This world is full of actors and
they are not all on the stage. Even
[ in the pulpit we can sometimes see
men who think more of what the
Monday papers will say about their
sermons than of what God will say.
A good reputation is a good thing
to have; it is not to be despised.
* • *
Frosting and Gravy
Furthermore, hypocrites are ex
cessively fond of all the outward
signs and benefits of being (or be
ing thought to be) “big shots.”
Every once in a while the news
papers tell of some man who has
pretended to be some European
count or other titled gentleman.
Imitating the manners of the
aristocrat, he lives off quite a
number of gullible people before
the police catch up with him. Now
the true aristocrat is a respon
sible person; he carries many re
sponsibilities. Titles and'so on are
incidental. But the bogus aristocrat
is irresponsible; all he cares about
is glamor. Now you can’t make a
poor cake good by giving it thick
coat of frosting; you can’t make a
tough steak tender by slathering
it with gravy. It takes more than
frosting and gravy to make a goon
meal. But the hypocrite, in the
church or out. cares more for life’s
cover-up than for what is under
neath.

WET BAPTIST; Frank Holland
noticed after he finished teaching
the Men’s Class at the Baptist
Church Sunday that he had been
standing in a slight pool of water
which had seeped into the base
ment from the big rain Saturday
night. “I knew our church liked
a lot of water,” said Frank, “but 1
didn’t know that I was required to
stand in water to teach a lesson.”
ENJOYS JOURNAL: A/lc Paul
A. Griffin stationed with the 12th
Air Force in Wiesbaden Germany
says he is enjoying reading the -
Houston Home Journal every
week. He is also enjoying tours
of interesting places which he has
taken. A tour down the Rhine Val
ley was most interesting. The Elt
ville Village, originally called Alta
Villa by the Romans, the Nieder
wald Monument, known as the
“Watch on the Rhine”, which is
located on a high mountain and is
known to the German people as
the Statute of Liberty is to the
American people. From this watch
a wide and beautiful landscape of
the Rhine Valley can be seen, also,
a visit to the “Dorn” the home of
the American Poet, Henry W.
Longfellow, where he lived in 1835
when he visited the Rhine, a visit
to a Roman Church which is over
1000 years old. He also plans to
see many other historical and in
teresting places before his tour of
duty is completed in Europe.
ANOTHER CROP: Bob Batchel
or, who runs Stewart Richardson’s
farm, picked several bales of cot
ton in January. He says this was
a “second or third” crop on the
one planting of last season. He
made one crop without any rains
and two crops after the rains
started falling.
CONTRACT LET; People tell us j
that we shouldn’t get after any 1
officials for not paving roads when
our yard is a sea of mud. We can
now report that a “contract” has
been let to get us out of the mud
as soon as the rains let up.
