THE SILVER
CHALICE, by Thomas
Costain
The boy, Basil, went
through more life styles
than anyone in history. He
began as the son of a poor
pen salesman, was
adopted by a rich mer
chant, was sold as a slave
when his adopted father
died, and eventually
married the grand
daughter of the wealthy
Joseph of Arimafhea. His
experiences went from the
heights of honor to the
depths of degradation.
Perhaps this was what it
took to make him be the
kind of person a Christian
had to be In the days after
the slaying of Christ.
Basil began to love the
story of Jesus as he heard
his beloved friend, Luke,
tell of His life. When the
lovely Deborra married
Basil he knew that he
really believed that Jesus
was the son of God but it
wasn't until he had to state
his beliefs in the presence
of Nero that he knew he
was a Christian. He knew
then that it was important
for him to finish building
the silver chalice to hold
the cup which Jesus used
at the last supper with His
followers.
The authenticity of
stories such as this are nil
but they do contribute to
the knowledge one seeks of
Jesus' life. The author has
done much research into
the life styles which were
followed during the time of
Christ. Although it cannot
be said that things with the
Christians went along
exactly as the books
portray, it is sure that it
could have been that way. 1
find that it helps me in my
Bible study to know more
of how they cooked their
meals, what they ate, how
they suffered from the cold
and especially how hard It
was to be a follower of
Jesus when it was against
the law to do so.
In this book I disagreed
with the attitudes the
author had Luke ex
pressing but not so much
so as to disallow their
possibility. Read the
novels such as the Robe
and the Silver Chalice and
put yourself into the same
situations. Do you come
out being as good as you
sometimes think you are or
does it make you realize
how little you have stood
up for Him as it did me?

Hunters Should Be Cautious
Snakebite Peril Haunts
Perry Area Dove Hunters
The warm days and cool
evenings of September and
October are a hunter's
mecca, as hundreds of
dove hunters flock to the
farmlands near the Perry
area. But earlier this week
the doveshooting almost
turned to tragedy as a
former Perryan now
working in Centerville was
rattlesnake bitten while
bending down to pick up a
fallen dove.
Observance of good
hunting safety rules is a
must if more tragedies,
that could result in
fatalities, are not to occur.
Just as important is
knowing correct steps to
take it one is bitten by one
of the many venomous
snakes in the Middle
Georgia area.
Widely employed by
most for snakebite is the
"cut and suck" method.
This consists of making
crossing cuts over the bite,
one quarter inch long and
one eighth inch deep, then
either sucking the venom
out or using a snakebite
suction kit to remove the

venom. All authorities
caution persons with either
dental cavities or sores in
the mouth not to suck out
venom, as it can enter the
blood stream.
But in San Antonio,
Texas, Emergency
Medical Technicians
(EMT's) now carry
chemical ice packs and
constriction bands in their
ambulances as what they
consider a more practical
first aid measure. The new
equipment came upon
recommendation of a San
Antonio physician and
surgeon, who had studied
the effect of venomous
bites for over 15 years.
His findings have
resulted in the introduction
here of a new first aid kit,
appropriately named
"Snakebite Freeze",
which contains chemical
ice packs, constriction
bands and an insulated
wrapper to hold the ice
pack in place. The non
toxic, non-caustic ice pack
is activated by squeezing
an inner bag to produce

Perform At PTC Meeting

meeting of the Perry

degrees. It will be
marketed in pharmacies,
garden and farm stores
and sporting goods outlets.
In opposing cutting
versus ice packs, the
surgeon contends the
presently advocated one
quarter inch long and one
eighth inch deep incisions
are ineffective when the
venom has been injected
deeply into the muscle, and
unnecessary when the
victim receives no venom,
which, according to his
studies, occurs in three
cases out of ten.
The surgeon doubts
cutting is beneficial in any
case, except with
professional guidance, and
argues that the laymen's
chances of severing a
nerve, artery or tendon are
too risky to be undertaken
at all, often causing
greater harm than the
snakebite itself.
Rather than cutting, he
suggests that for any
poisonous- bite- rat

copperhead or coral snake
the layman should;
(1) Apply constriction
bands lightly both above
and below the bite, where
possible;
(2) Place crushed ice
over the bite area to cool
the venom and slow down
its movement to other
parts of the body, and
(3) Remove victim to a
medical facility in a rapid
and safe manner.
Other medical
authorities contend that
the “cut and suck" method
is still of benefit, and argue
that the new method does
not restrict the flow of
venom adequately enough.
But all agree that rapid
transport to a doctor or
hospital is essential.
However, the best J
method of treating >
snakebite is certainly
avoiding being bitten.
Watching where one's
steps land will prevent an
unpleasant experience. By
all accounts, hunting can
be hazardous if
precautions are not ob
served.
