NEWS FOR THE
HOME-MAKER
(By Lucy Martin, County Home
Demonstration Agent.)
Rural People Read More.
Georgia rural people are doing
more reading, and they are paying
more attention to the selection of
good reading material, reports to
Miss Martha McAlpine, extension
specialist in rural social life, indicate.
During the last year, 1,362 --ural
persons, mostly women and 4-H club
members, were enrolled in a better
reading project, and 527 of them
have already been awarded certifi
cates of merit in reading. To receive
a certificate one must read twelve
books from the selected lists or sub
stitutes of literary value equal to
those on the lists. The selected lists
are issued by the agricultural exten
sion service co-operating with the
Georgia library commission.
The largest number of reading cer
tificates have gone to Effingham
county. Fulton county came second in
number of people to receive reading
certificates, with Montgomery county
ranking third. Other counties ranking
high included Franklin, Clay, Cal
houn, Dodge, Screven, Telfair, Gwin
nett and Miller.

JESUS CHRIST.
The wonders of redeeming love
Our highest thoughts exceed,
The Son of God who lives above
Supplies our every need.
He sends the sunlight’s radiant glow,
He sends the clouds and rain;
He gives us joy supreme, though we
May often suffer pain.
He sends the snow, He sends the sleet
He sends the winter’s cold,
He is the door thru which we all
May enter in His fold.
All we, like sheep, were gone astray
Our hopes were passed and gone,
’Till Jesus paid the price for us,
Now we are not our own.
When tossing billows ’round us roll
And tempest rises high,
Our weary hearts He doth console,
On Him we can rely.
He ever stands and vigil keeps,
He knows our every need;
He’s shelter in the time of storm,
List to Him interceed.
My Father! Wilt thou mercy have,
And grant thy pardoning grace,
That those who trust in us, alone
May see us face to face.

Gore F. F. A. Sponsors
Shooting Match
.... (By Aronld Perry.) ....
The Gore F.F.A. boys held a shoot
ing match for a turkey. The amount
of money cleared at the shooting
match was $10.20. The money went
to finish the cabin that was suppos
ed to have been finished by the PWA
but the boys decided to finish it
themselves so they could >be using it.
The boys procured the turkey from
Robert Hendrix and was won by
Zenus Holcomb.
The shooting match was very suc
cessful and there were about one
hundred and fifty shots fired at the
match. The boys hope to raise enough
money to complete te cabin by Christ
mas.
It will take about $l5O to complete
the job.
We hope to clear a larger amount
from the next match, for we need
money badly.
o
THEY SAY.
By HUBERT DODD.
“When you lose your health you
ain’t got nothing.”
That man wasn’t interested in
grammar, but he was interested in
Jiealth. Anyway, even grammar “ain’t
nothing” unless you have health. He,
doubtless, would retranslate the thir
teenth chapter of I Corinthians and
everywhere the word “love” occurs
he would substitute the word ‘health.’
Though I speak with the tongues
of men and of angels—-tough I have
all knowledge and alf^faith—tffeugh
I bestow all my goods to feed the
poor and give my body to be burned
in order to show my zeal for doing
good—but have not health, I am
nothing.
The man I heard say that health
was everything, knew what he was
talking about. He wasn’t a doctor
either. He was just a plain man who
had lost his health and then gained it
back again.
The human body is the great con
nector between spirits, and it is rath
er doubtful that in this sort of world
you would ever have fellowship with
another spirit unless we had bodies.
If the connectors are out of order the
fellowship will be less efficient.
When your health gives way, your
spirit is then dressing up to go to a
party in another world than this one.
My common friends said what the
doctor, or the preacher, or some pro
fessional would naturally tell you, but
he said it just as well:
“When you lose your health you
ain’t got nothing.”

Gore Future Farmers
Hold. Regular Meeting
(By Harold Storey.)
The Gore Future Farmers held a
‘regular meeting Friday night, Nov.
13. The meeting was called to order
by bhe regular president, George
Padgett, and the opening ceremony
used by the officers.
During the business part of the
meeting it was decided that, although
bhe cabin, which has been begun, is
supposed to be finised by the PWA,
the F.F.A. will finish it themselves.
The boys decided several ways for
making up money for the work, ma
terials, etc. They decided at first to
give a shooting match for a turkey
on the Saturday before Thanksgiving
day, which was Nov. 21. The price
was 10 cents for each shot. People
were allowed to shoot with a rifle or
a shotgun. The turkey was secured
from Robert Hendrix.
They also decided to give a negro
minstrel some time about the first of
December. The name of the minstrel
will be the “Great Chicken Case.” The
play will contain all the regular en
rolled F.F.A. members.
Another thing that the boys decided
to do is for each boy in the agricul
ture class to contribute a bushel of
corn from his project and the corn
be sold and the money be put in the
treasury.
After all this was decided upon,
the motion was made that the initia
tion for the Junior Farmer degree be
held. The candidates for the initia
tion were as follows: Arnold Perry,
Jack Scott. Harold Storey, DeForest
Owens, Hill Owens, E. P. McKinney,
Bernard Packer, Roger Hansard and
Holbert Hansard. Three of the boys
were absent. The regular ceremony
for the initiation of Junior Farmers
was used. Then after the initiation the
closing ceremony was given and the
meeting adjourned. Another regular
meeting of the Gore chapter of Fu
ture Farmers will be held on Friday,
night, Nov. 27.

Get rid of constipation by taking

that bowel activity has slowed up or

refreshing relief it has brought them.
Mrs. Ray Mullins, of Lase, Ark.,
writes: “My husband and I both take
Thedford’s Black-Draught and find
it splendid for constipation, bilious
ness, and the disagreeable, aching,
tired feeling that comes from this
condition.” With reference to Syrup
of Black-Draught, which this mother
gives her children, she says: “They
like the taste and it gave such good
results.”
