Construction of • natural gas.
line from Bogart to Jefferson la
well under way, according to John
Durden, Athens Manager for Geor¬
gia Natural Gas.
The pfajeck which will cost
nearly $400,000, will include 65,000
feet (12 miles) of 10-inch line and
11,000 feet of 4-inch. H is ex¬
pected to be completed by Jan. 1.
The BogartJeffersoffi line is the
first leg of the extension of gas
service into the area north of
Jackson County. Plans are to
serve Cornelia, Pendergrass, Tal
mo, Msaysville, Homer, Baldwin, Mt.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Plain
Dealer yesterday amused readers
by detailing the woes attendant to
xewspapering. The paper noted:
“If the sheet contains too much
politcial matter, the people won’t
have it. If it contains too little,
people won’t have it. If the type is
large, it don’t contain enough
leading matter. If the type is small
it they can’t read it.
“H we have a few jokes, we are
called a blackguard. If we have no
jokes, we are called stupid, a fos¬
sil. If we give them lengthly edi¬
torials, it is said there cannot be
much sense in so much writing.
If we omit editorials, we are lazy
g have no brains.
1 we give a complimentary no¬
te one, all the rest are jealous
use they are not treated the
«uuc. If we do not, we are selfish,
and a greedy hog. If we undertake
to please the ladies, men say the
paper is of no account. If we do
not, the ladies will not have the
paper in the bouse.
“If we attend church, it is judged
to be done to obtain patronage. If
we stay aiway, because the commun¬
ity requires our labor on Sunday
as well as on other days, we are
denounced as desperately wicked
and full of deceit. If we compli¬
ment the conduct of a man or a
class in the community, no notice
is taken of it. If we fail to compli¬
ment them, we are doing them an
Injustice.
‘Tf we call the attention of the
public to existing abuses, we are
exposing and disgracing the town.
If we do not do it, we are cowardly
and dare not tell the truth . . .
“PS. If you have a child, do not,
we pray you, allow him to be
come an aspirant for position in

him up in the peanut or boot

Comments on
Here & Hereafter
By Dr. Bob Jonas
“I have set the Lord always be¬
fore me.” That is what the Psalm¬
ist said. Very few people do this.
Some people set the Lord before
them when the baby is sick or
when some other trouble comes.
God should always be before His
people. No man can fall into sin
until he takes his eyes off Jesus
Christ. You can hold a dollar in
front of the faces of some men,
and they cannot see God. A11 they
can see is a dollar. There are peo¬
ple who could see God above a
mountain of gold. God is everything
to them.
In everything, He should have
pre-eminence. He should be above
business, above pleasure, above ail
social relations. Since He is God,
He should be supreme over our
lives.
The way from earth to heaven
is spoken of as the path of life.
I do not know what life means.
No man knows. I know what the
scientists say about life. A doctor
come to the bedside of a dead
man. He holds the mirror over the
dead man’s face, and there is no
breath stain on the mirror. He ex¬
amines the dead man’s heart with
an apparatus, and there • is no re¬
sponse of the dead man’s heart.
“He is dead,” the doctor says.
There are certain tests to which
he would respond if he were alive.
A Christian responds to Jesus
Christ. In the Christian’s heart
there is a divine life. Jesus came
that men might have life and have
it more abundantly. A Christian’s
heart answers to the heart of his
Lord. I have heard the great ora¬
tors, and my soul has been stirred
by their eloquence. My emotions
have been moved by great dramatic
events. But nothing ever sent such
a tingle up and down my back as
a simple gospel story. Since I have
found Jesus, my heart responds to'
the divine mesage. The artist’s
heart responds to art. The soul of
the musician responds to music.
The heart of the great actor re¬
sponds to drama. The heart of the
Christian responds to God.

TO ttLEBMJORS r d
With the advent of another year we might well be skeptical and
say, “Why Celebrate with such fervor and excitement? A good year
had to die so 1956 could be born.”
We might say this, but no one does. If 1955 was a good year, it
will be well remembered, but few will dwell upon its passing. It must
give way to a bright new year bringing with it the profound impres¬
sion that we are again blessed with an invaluable supply of new days,
hours and minutes. We have found a new reservoir of time; time in
which to make plans, to do things, to live and think, and to make
our dreams come true.
Time is hadeed the true coin of our mortal realm, a deeply personal
possession that each is free to spend, squander, sell, give away, devote
to the glory of God and to the causes of humanity.
And though 1956 marks yet another milestone along the journey
of life that is all too short and quickly travelled, it is joyfully welcomed
as the giver of a new and magical handful of time. With this magical
. handful it is possible to defeat the worries of age; to conquer fear;
to see through the shadows of disillusionment.
With unified determination and with the help of God, this handful
of living, this New Year 1956, can be recorded In the book of life
upon earth as a year of achievement in man’s hopeful quest for a
better world — where all nations and all people live together in joy,
peac q nd harmony. 0
Why Does Dr. King
.Oppose Rescue
Mission !n Congo?
The Atlanta (Ga.) Times, De¬
cember 14> 1964
Dr. Marten Luther King’s pom¬
pous pronouncements on The Con¬
go should be a warning to all
Americans. Here is the recipient of
a Nobel Peace Prize criticizing his
own country overseas for carrying
out a misson of mency to rescue
white missionaries, both American
and European, from the blood¬
thirsty savages trained by the
Chinese Communists,
This is how the wire service
quoted Kng:
“It is imperative that all foreign
troops and all mercenaries be re¬
moved from The Congo immedi¬
ately.”
How would this newly discovered
expert on Congolese affairs res¬
cue the white hostages who are be¬
ing raped, tortured, mutilated, hu¬
miliated, and murdered in The
Congo by the rebels?
Would he rescue them nonvio
lently? Would he race into the
jangles crying peace, brother,
peace? Would he ask Peking’s
puppets to peacefully abandon
their designs for conquest of the
very heart of black Africa?
What words of consolation does
peacemaker King have for the
family of Dr. Paul Carlson, who
was tortured and murdered by the
rebels?
“We must recognize The Congo
crisis for what it is a civil war
where there can be no military
solution,” peacemaker King, apos¬
tle of nonviolence, declared in Nor¬
way.
“A solution can only come about
through nonviolent means, and the
only meaningful way must be
through the agency of the Organiz¬
ation for African Unity under the
auspices of the United Nations,”
King said as he sought to under¬
mine the foreign policy of the
Jnited States in regard to The Con
go.
Dr. King condemns Americans
md the Belgians and the mer
enaries” for their rescue mission
n The Congo, while the rebels
link in and out of villages, killing
thousands of Congolese themselves.
The demand that the United
States “get out of The Congo” came
first from the Kremlin. Now the
demand is being echoed by the
pacifists and the “peacemakers”
vhd would appease the Communists
it every bend in the road.
Now does Secretary of State Dean
Rusk still wish to send Dr. King
on a goodwill” mission to Africa?

Don't Wait to Choose
Your Doctor
Americans are the “movingest”
people in the world. It is no longer
a common thing to hear someone
say, Oh, he’s been our family
doctor for more than 20 years.”
After you arc settled in your
new home, entered the children in
located the most convenient
and garage, joined the
of your faith, is there any¬
you have overlooked? Have
chosen a family doctor?
Choosing a family doctor is most
especially if you have

no one to call.
It is true that most communities

locate a doctor when a crisis
However, the emergency

had been under the regu¬
watchful care of your personal
HOW TO CHOOSE?
You might start by caUing the
medical society and asking
the names of several physicians
your vicinity. Membership in
local medical society indicates
that the doctor is a qualified phys
cian meeting the high standards
of his fellow practitioners.
If there is no medical society in
your town, consult a nearby hos¬
pital, the pharmacist or perhaps
consult the American Medical Di¬
rectory, published by the Ameri¬
can Medical Association, at your
local library. In the latter you wiU
find specific information as to the
professional qualificatons and spec
alization of physicians in your
community.
Then you will probably want
to question others about the doc¬
tors you have in mind. A doctor’s
patients or your new neighbors
can help you decide on the one
M.D. best suited to your family.
Then visit his office. See if you
feel comfortable with him and if
he inspires in you trust and con¬
fidence in his ability. The relation¬
ship between doctor and patient
is very important.
When you have selected your
family doctor, be completely frank
with him. The more a doctor knows
about his patients, the better care
he can give them.
For your own good — and the
health of your family — don’t
make necessity force you to make
a hasty choice. Select Mm now.
When illness strikes, you can turn
to him in confidence, knowing that
he knows the health record of
you and the members of your
family and is your friend and ad¬
visor as well as your protector
when you need him.
BUT NOT THE PIANO
It was only a filler to a news¬
paper, but it left a song in our
heart. A California court decided
that a resident who declares him¬
self bankrupt need not give up
possession of a musical instrument
such as a piano. Such instruments
are "essential to the life and well
being of the individual,” said the
judicial opinion.
