LOOKING AHEAD by GEORGE S. BENSON President~ Harding College Sea re y. Arkansas Research A salesman representing a firm ol efficiency experts managed, several years ago, to gain admission to th« office of a small manufacturer, one who employed fewer than 200 peo¬ ple. The solicitor made a sale. He induced his prospect to hire the services of the system fixers who, he promised, would show the owner how to save a great deal more oi his factory’s annual earnings. After contracting for this rather high-priced advice, the owner of the business was impatient for results. He could hardly wait for the first “expert” to come and prune out needless expenses. Less work and more profit on the same volume al¬ ways seems attractive. Finally came a polished man of 40 wearing spectacles with conspicuous rims on a chisel-shaped nose. He Liked Action The owner of the plant and his hired adviser walked solemnly to¬ gether through offices and shops. They were returning to the main of¬ fice when the expert's eye fell upon an idle man—an old man, sitting at a desk looking out a window. As soon as they were out of ear-shot, the expert exclaimed: “That old fuddy-duddy is a net loss. Dis¬ charge him! He is just sitting there dreaming.” “Do you suppose he is dream¬ ing?” inquired the owner of the fac¬ tory. “Day-dreaming, to be sure,” replied the expert. "Well, that’s just fine,” said the owner. “Now we won’t be needing your help. Every so often that old chap has a day¬ dream, and the cheapest one he ever had brought this firm half a million dollars of new business. Don’t disturb him as you go out.” Ideas Have Life Creative work has its peculiarities. It takes place inside people’s heads, and superficial critics don’t look that deep. First comes the germ of an idea; then careful analysis. Since no one person can know all about anything, research is necessary. Re¬ search is costly too, because it must be carried on by men who have special knowledge and special skills. Inventions don’t go into production direct from the dream stage. Man¬ ufacturing profits begin when multi¬ plied copies of an invention start coming off the assembly line, but mass production permits no guess¬ work. The dream is necessary but numberless laboratory tests and ex¬ haustive practical experiments must pave every invention’s road to mar¬ ket. Many a good idea has died un¬ worked for lack of research—too costly. Increase the Yield In America are many factories— geese able to lay golden eggs, such as employment, prosperity and progress. The fertile 14-carat gan¬ der in the flock is Research. With¬ out this motivating influence indus¬ try may start its post-war program and pursue a well-charted course, efficiently amputating cost after cost until there’s nothing left to cut off, but it’s the road to ruin. Not many weeks ago I read a scathing criticism of American busi¬ ness. In it the author hoisted a red flag in warning against capitalism. He pointed to hundreds of thousands of dollars spent annually in industri¬ al research by a mere handful of wealthy corporations. I have only this to say: I hope they spent all he said and more, because the brightest spot in the outlook is re¬ search. Gov. Out Auctions Real Auctioneer Atlanta, Nov. 14.—Some 300 representing lead¬ ing farms hroughout the South¬ east, gathered the other day at J. W.

What must I do to be saved? The above question is, no doubt, the greatest that ever engaged the attention of man. It is based upon serious think¬ ing and involves a personal re¬ sponsibility. Even though others may be able to teach one the way of salvation, yet there is something that each one must do- If the reader will turn to the book of Acts of the Apostles ( The book of Conversions), he will find this true (Acts 2:37-38. To be saved is wonderful- John says: “And they shall reign for¬ ever and ever” (Rev- 22:1-6). But to be lost in eternity would oe terrible”. “But the fearful, and unbelieveing, and the ab- omiabie, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and Idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death” (Rev. 21:8). Surely this snould quicken your interest in a study of this subject. What one must do to be saved depends on how far he is from salvation when the question is asked. Paul told the Jailer to "believe on the Lord and then shall thou be saved” (Acts 16:30- 31), while Peter instructed the Pentecostians to “Repent and be baptized for the remission of sins” (Acts 2:38)- In Acts 22:16 Ananias commanded Saul to“ arise and be baptized and wash away thy sins”- Now we are sure these people had to do the same things in order to be saved from their sins. The reason for the variation in the answers given is the difference in condition of those who asked the quest¬ ion. One group had never heard of Christ-Thus they were not believers- They were told to be¬ lieve (Acts 16:30-31). Another group had just heard the gospel and were believers- They were told to “repent and be baptized” (Acts 2:38). Saul was a pentitent believer. He was told to be bap¬ tized” (Acts 22:16). It is interesting to note that every time this question was ask ed (Acts 2:37; Acts 16:30 etc-) the answer given always indi¬ cated that something had to be done in order for the person to enjoy salvation from sins. Thus we concude that man must obey A Quilted Robe Saves Bond Money Chinese Influence Is suggested in the shirtband collar and deep arm¬ holes of this quilted satin robe.

Georgia National Guard To Be Around 9.000 In Number Atlanta, Nov. 14.—There’s one object in particular on which Brig. Gen. Marvin Griffin, pub¬ lisher of the Bainbridge Post- Searchlight, likes to talk. It is the National Guard. And quite naturally, too, he, as Georgia’s adjutant general, will supervise the task of recruiting and train¬ ing the Naional Guard in the state. While in Washington last week attending a meeting of the Ad¬ jutant Generals’ Association, Gen. Griffin, a veteran of World War II, and himself a product of the National Guard in Geor¬ gia, was cornered by reporters and interviewed on his pet sub¬ ject. Out of the interview came some interesting information for the folks back home. For example, General Griffin disclosed that Georgia’s Nation¬ al Guard, units of which distin¬ guished themselves in World War II, is to be expanded to a numerical strength of between 8.000 and 9,000 officers and men, and will include for the first time some serviceforce units in addition to ground and air for¬ ces units. This projected numerical strength will be a considerable increase over its 1940 strength when the Georgia units were brought into federal service, the general said, pointing out that 5,196 Georgia National Guards¬ men were inducted into the armed forces in 1940 and 1941. General Griffin also disclosed that Georgia and Tennessee have agreed to work together for the allocation of one full division between them. The prewar guard had one division alloca¬ ted to four Southern states. Under the new setup for the National Guard, the objective of the training will be to make its units capable af immediate mo¬ bilization rather than capable of mobilization within 60 or 90 days, as was the case before the war. In short, the postwar Nation¬ al Guard will be “young, vigor¬ ous and energetic,” declared General Griffin. In world war If, an employe of the Southern Railway System assigned to temporary duty as a troop train escort, traveled 127,431 miles with 48,257 troops. The troops traveled 29,108,810 passenger miles without an acc¬ ident. * * * ♦ * * Railroad taxes in 1944 avera¬ ged $5,044,000 a day which, if paid insilver dollars, would make a stack about eight miles high. * * * As of VJ-Day, 7,616 members of the Southern Railway System family of 50,000 employes had entered the nation’s armed for¬ ces in World War II. Of this number, 92 made the supreme sacrifice for their country. * * * “By the way who is that long and lank girl standing over there “Hush she used to be long and lank, but she’s just inherited $100,000.

Bles¬ are they that do his com¬ that they may have to the tree of life, and may in through the gates of city (Rev. 22:14). What are commandments? Christ is the' Saviour. The is the plan- The Master “Go preach the gospel to creature” (Mark 16:15-16). Paul indicated the gospel is “ power of God unto salvation (Rom. 1:16). Hence if you are alien sinner, you must first the gospel- Paul reasoned: can they hear without a (Rom. 10:14). “And cometh by hearing and by the word of God” ( 10:17)- You must also be¬ the message. In Hebrews the necessity of faith is em¬ “But without faith it impossible to please God”. Saviour teaches: “He that and is baptized shall saved: He that believeth not, be dammed” (Mark 16:15- 16). But faith only is not suf¬ ficient to save, for James says, ‘Ye see then how that by works man is justified and not by faith only” (James 2:24). Re¬ also is commanded. “ ye repent ye shall all perish” (Luke 13:3). It necessary to confess Christ. Lord teaches: “Whosoever shall confess before him will I confess also be¬ my Father which is in he¬ (Matt. 10:32).
