‘Heralds Os Destiny’
Over WRGA, Rome
Stories of Tuan Jim in Sarawak,
the land of treacherous headhunters
and deadly jungles ruled by a white
rajah, and of several great mission
ary men and women of the past and
present, provide the basis for the
second series of “Heralds of Destiny”
transcriptions which the million unit
fellowship movement of the Metho
dlist Episcopal church is presenting
weekly over Radio Station WRGA in
Rome.
Because the impending union of
three great branches of Methodism
of direct concern to eight million
people—culminates in April, 1939, the
forthcoming issue of the “Heralds of
Destiny” series of radio broadcasts
which the million unit fellowship
movement sponsors, has an especial
public interest this year.
Denominations which will soon be
merged into the United Methodist
church include the Methodist Episco
pal, the Methodist Episcopal, South,
and Methodist Protestant branches.
The radio program swill be heard
every week at 7:15 p.m. on Mondays.
This series of dramatized episodes
from Methodist missionary history,
prepared by the million unit fellow
ship movement under the title “Her
alds of Destiny,” is designed to illus
trate the adventure and achievement
of those who build civilization from
darkest Africa to the shadowed slums
of America’s own cities.
“Drums of Death” is the title of
the program in Which a missionary
doctor risks certain death at the
hands of African natives by attempt
ing to save the life of the son of a
jungle chief. A valiant doctor and
his hospital staff, who, at this writ
ing, still brave the dangers of the
Japanese war in China, are the chief
characters in another of this series of
drama tizations.

KNOW YOUR TIMBER
(Emily Woodward.)
Georgia timber owners are learn
ing, among many other things, that
it is a real money loss to market
trees under twelve inches in diame
ter, measured at 4 1-2 feet from the
ground.
A scientific study of the cost of
manufacture and net value per tre*
shows conclusively that a very small
profit for stumpage above logging
and milling cost is realized from trees
smaller than twelve inches in diame
ter. It is revealed through this study
that the profit increases in stumpage
value per tree from 11 cents for each
twelve-inch tree to $11.43 for each
tree that is twenty-seven inches; in
other words, almost a dollar an inch
profit for every increased diameter
inch.
The timber owner is reminded that
the net value of each tree to the own
er is not determined alone by size
and cost of manufacture, although
these are highly important factors.
It is pointed out that in logging se
lectively or to a diameter limit, all
crooky, limby, defective and slow
growing trees should be removed, re
gardless of size. The products of such
cutting can be utilized in various
ways. The removal will prove highly
profitable in giving more growing
space to the better quality and fast
growing trees.
It is estimated that this type of
cutting practice will give the timber •
growers an income ranging from
$1.50 to $3.50 an acre over a period
of five to ten years.
The Georgia timber grower who
knows his timber will quickly recog
nize the value of applying such prof
it-making methods to his timber
farming and marketing.

\ BUDGET/
The legislative branch of Georgia’s
government is now at work. The prob
lem it faces is two-fold, and the re
sults will be more far-reaching for
the future progress of this great
state than any session of the assem
bly since the end of Reconstruction.
Reduced to its essentials, the mat
ter is simply one of balancing the
budget to take care of new state
services three times demanded by
the electorate—and stabilizing that
condition for at least ten years.
There are 205 members of the house
of representatives, where all this leg
islation must originate. There are
fifty-three members of the state sen
ate. Naturally, there were, at the
start of the session, almost exactly
258 divergent opinions of how this
double problem might be solved. This
is natural and to be expected in any
true democracy. It is only under a
dictator that everyone think alike on
every subject—with a concentration
camp or a blood-purge in the back
ground for anyone who may view any
thing differently from the forces in
power.
Nevertheless, in any discussion of
Georgia affairs, there are certain
conclusions which represent a very
real mandate from an overwhelming
majority, or which constitute ines
capable developments from any un
biased consideration of the facts.
These facts and conclusions may be
summarized briefly:
1. Two state-wide campaigns and
one general election upon constitu
tional amendments have been waged
and won on the single issue of a pro
gressive program to re-create Geor
gia as the Empire State of the South.
2. The inauguration of this majori
ty mandate has unbalanced the bud
get of the state to the tune of eight
and a half million dollars.
3. If the benefits of old-age assist
ance, aid to dependent children, edu
cation health, homestead exemption,
aid to counties and matching of feder
al grants are to be met, to be con
tinued and to be developed to a point
of real economic usefulness, new and
additional state revenue must be ob
tained. Otherwise, this progressive
legislation must be repealed, since no
amount of ‘economy in administration’
can balance the state budget.
Desirable factors in tax revision
would include:
1. Solution of the problem of fi
nancing the counties of the state,
which require almost $2,5(0,000 rev
enue to replace that lost by home
stead exemption. _
IN LOVING MEMORY.
On the 25th da of July, 1937, a
well-spent life was ended. Mama
Chappelear, as we all called her, left
this world to enter her beautiful new
home. It was almost at night and it
seemed that the angels hovered over
her for hours waiting so her to re
linquish her hold on this earth and
then silently they lifted her and
gently carried her upward to her
heavenly home to meet her loved
ones, gone on before, to be with
them and her dear Savior.
She lived a life of service to oth
ers, and was always kind and cheer
ful, even in her latter yeans of much
suffering.
She spent much time in prayer and
reading her Bible; her’s was a ripe
age and also a ripe Christian experi
ence; a good example of the finished
product of Christian faith and living.
We will speak of her today as
though she is temporarily away,
which is true, in spirit she is here
and though we are left sad and lone
ly, may her home-going bring Hea
ven nearer, for she is waiting there
for our coming.
Mama Chappelear leaves her hus
band, two sons, four daughters, 20 1
grandchildren and seven great-grand
children any many friends who are
looking forward to the time when he
shall say it is enough and then face
to face we shall meet her whom we
loved as wife, mother and friend. Her
husband and children feel her pass
ing a great loss. We can only say,
“Mother, it won’t be long.”
What must it be to fall asleep at
night,
And wake at dawn in Paradise’s fair
light.
What must it be to look with won
dering eyes,
Upon the glory of the Heavenl skies.
What must it be in morning’s radi
ant’s dawn,
To meet with rapturous joy our lov
ed ones gone,
And, oh, what bliss to feel God’s
perfect peace,
When earthly case and pain and sor
rows cease. 1
With heavy hearts and souls by grief
made dull,
We mourn for her whose cup of joy
is full.
We miss her dear, dear presence ev
ery hour,
Her love was to our hearts - like
some sweet flower. ■
Thank God, in paradise love grows'
no less,
But fuller in its holier blessedness. |
Thank God, that in her everlasting

2. An extension of the homestead
exemption system. This, however, is
in the field of socio-political activity
rather than that of taxation and eco
nomics, because of the peculiar fac
tor of absentee ownership of much
Georgia realty, and discloses a pur
pose to utilize revenue measures to
obtain a desired social reform.
Certain tax measures will not pro
duce the needed revenues.
1. An increase in the tax on in
tangibles would result in driving
those items into hiding and cause ap
preciable loss of revenue from in
come tax and inheritance tax returns.
2. The income tax statute, now
well stabilized, should not be amend
ed in any important detail for the
present as it is productive and in
line with the laws of other states.
3. Additional ad valorem taxes are
undesirable and contrary to the
wishes of the public.
4. A revision of the inheritance
tax law, while not undesirable, would
not produce, at the present time,
more than a small increase in rev
enue.
5. Diversion of highway funds,
whether by direct action or by be
lated enactment of a highly desirable
measure abolishing allocations,
would occasion too great a loss of
federal funds and too much delay in
completing the road system to be
considered seriously.
6. The adoption of ‘nuisance taxes’,
such as additional excises on motion
picture admissions, soft drinks, silk
hosiery, cosmetics, tobacco products
and the like, would be unwise, be
cause unpopular and inequitable.
Over the ultimate text of the meas
ure to be adopted, the assembly will
find varying shades of opinion, but
one conclusion is inescapable: The
tax bill adopted must be capable of
providing the needed revenue under
all normal conditions, must be easy
to enforce, calculation to make the
people tax conscious, must leave
room for a general revision of the
revenue system, and must provide a
solution for ten years at least to the
problem of budget-balancing, so that
there will not be constant revision of
Georgia’s basic tax laws.
(This article concludes the second
part of this series of studies. The
third and final series, beginning next
week, will seek to analyze the nature
and import of the only plans capable
of producing the revenue need for fi
nancing a Georgia Program to Re-
Create the Empire State of the
South.)

IN LOVING MEMORY
On Dec. 12, 1938, the death angel
visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy
Lawson and took away their precious
little darling, Doris Ann. All was
done for her that medical skill, lov
ing hearts and willing hands could
do, but God saw fit to take her Home.
Her little life was so short, but she
will be missed by all who knew her.
It is so sad to know she can’t be with
us anymore, but it is such a great
consolation to know we can go to her.
Oh, may we all live so as to meet
on that sweet day.
Days of sadness oft come over one
and all. Tears in silence often flow
when we think of our dear little darl
ing whom God called just a few days
ago. Weep not, father and mother,
for she is waiting for you on that
happy shore. The days are sad and
lonely since you left us, darling. The
cadence of your sweet voice we can
never hear. Dear little darling, we
hope to meet you, by and by, upon
the shining golden street and dwell
together in that Home on High, and
then the union will be sweet.
We loved her; yes, we loved her,
But Jesus loved her more,
For He has sweetly called her
To yonder golden shore.
There was an angel band in heaven
That was not quite complete,
So God took their darling
To fill the vacant seat.
Written by her grandmother,
MRS. DORA LAWSON.
