PRIVILEGES AND FREEDOM
OF LABOR
At this time when labor is de
manding a large share in the con
trol of business, it is incumbent
upon the public to consider what
makes for success in business.
The directors of business possess
and exercise no right in directing
their business under constitutional
industrial freedom that is not pos
sessed and exercised by practically
every other American citizen. No
normal citizen in his business re
lations feels that he is under any
sort of obligation, moral or eco
nomic, to pay more than the mar
ket price for any commodity or
service he buys, and no normal
citizen demands more than the
market price for that which he has
to sell.
When men and women offer their
chickens and eggs and butter on the
market for sale they are as really
selling their services as the man
who sells his services direct. Com
modities are “stored up” services.
Who ever heard of a man or a wom
an on the market insisting on pay
ing 30 cents a pound for chicken
when the market price is 20 cents
a pound, on the ground that we
should pay for commodities and
services on the basis of the needs
of the seller. If such a “queer” per
son should make his appearance
on the market, he would be in dan
ger of arrest either as an imbecile
or a lunatic. No one on the market
except a mendicant or a crank
would demand more than the mar
ket value for what he had to sell on
the ground of his needs.
Few if any of those who are de
manding that employes in indus
tries be paid more than the value
of their services on the basis of
their needs do not believe in, ac
cept nor practice this principal in
their own business activities. To
the extent this is true they are
both hypocritical and dishonest in
their demands.
The employes assume no respon
sibility for the success of the busi
ness, but are the first claimants on
the resources of the business. Aft
er all the employes are paid in full
and every other claimant is paid in
full, if anything is left it goes to
profits on the capital. In a very
large number of cases not a cent
is left to reward those who have
taken the hazardous risk. In 1921,
356,397 comporations were required
to report to the government for as
sessment for income taxes. More
than one-half or 185,158 of the
corporations reporting, reported no
net income.

A MESSAGE FROM REV. WRATHBURN
CASH ON BEING 'BORN AGAIN’
W j :; 5-
REV. WRATHBURN CASH
TEXT: II Cor. 5:17. '
Therefore, if any man be in
Christ he is a new creature; old
things are passed away. Behold, all
things are become new.
I am praying that these words
will help some one. It is the great
est thing in the world for anyone
to give his life to Christ and be a |
new man. There are a lot of people
who wonder what happens. Luke
15:10, “Likewise, I say unto you,
There is joy in the presence of thej
angels of God over one sinner that <
repenteth.” Some of the greatest !
preachers who have ever preached
have been men that have gone as.
low in sin as one could go. But,
praise God, they gave their lives 1
to Christ, and old things passed
away, and all things became new. |
Things became new at home, things
became new on the job; your con-;
versation becomes new; your looks;
are new; your thoughts are new. j
There are lots of requests today!
for prayer for peace from some of '
our leaders. Amen for that. But!
one of our greatest needs is an old
time confession meeting, confession
to Christ. Prov. 15:24, “The way of
life is above to the wise that he
may depart from hell beneath.
Jer. 17:11, “As the partridge set
teth on eggs and hatches them not,
Rev. W. P. Rowe, of Dalton, was
visiting here Saturday.

ily spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs.

came Sunday to spend several days

G. Toles.
Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Abney spent
Sunday with relatives in Chicka
mauga.
Miss Sarah Luke, a student of
Young Harris college, is spending
the spring holidays with her par
ents, Rev. and Mrs. T. M. Luke.
Miss Virginia Chapman visited
relatives and friends in La Fayette
during the week-end.
Augsworth Luke and John Daniel
Byars visited friends in Bowden,
Ga., Sunday.
Miss Dorothy Gaylor was guest
of Miss Emily Hollis during the

Smith, Jr., at Mount Berry last

Telling Age of Fish
Telling the age, origin of fish and
how many times they have spawned
by their scales is a new technique
recently developed by Dr. R. A.
Nesbit of the United States Fish and
Wild Life service and David H. Wal
lace of the Chesapeake Biological
laboratory of Solomons, Md. The
scales of fish show annual growth
“rings” much like the annular rings
in trees. Fish scales are better age
indicators than teeth in horses. The
portion of the scales shaped like an
inverted “V” which lies underneath
the skin reveals these “rings.” They
show up as blank spaces where the
new scales were not laid down due
to slowed growth during winter.
It is necessary tc use a microscope
for accurate results.

so he that getteth riches and not
by rights shall leave them in the
midst of his days and at his end
shall be a fool.”
Christ did not say if any man be
a member of a club or lodge that
he is a new man. But He says, If
any man be in Christ he is a new
man.
Prov. 28-13, “He that lives in sin
shall not prosper. But whosoever
confesses and forsakes them shall
have mercy.”
There are homes that have been
wrecked on account of sin. There
are homes that have been made
new by finding Christ.
Romans 14:17, “For the kingdom
of God is not meat and drink but
righteousness and peace and joy in
the Holy Ghost.”
Isaiah 45:22, “Look unto me and
be saved, all the ends of the earth
for I am God and there is none
else.
The Rev. Cash has been< a Chris
tian a little more than three years.
During these three years he has
been carrying the Gospel to all the
corners of the world.
During his ministry he has help
ed lead about 2,000 lost souls to
Christ. His plea is, “May the Lord
bless you all.”

FARM BRIEFS
By JACK WOOTEN, Extension
Editor.
NEED FOR FOOD
“Not until fifty or a hundred
years ago could we really say that
man had mastered the secret of
growing enough food for all,” M. L.
Wilson, director of extension work,
said recently. “But the struggle
against starvation is still real. It is
real in years of drought; in time of
war. We still have millions who are
underfed and hungry, not neces
sarily for more food, but for the
protective foods the new science of
nutrition tells us are essential. In
formation on values and on the ef
fects of good and of poor diets on
health has accumulated rapidly in
the past ten years, even in the past
two years. It is important for ev
eryone in the field of nutrition,
home economics, and everyday
home-making to brush up on this
new knowledge and to take part in
the crusade now under way to
make our people nutrition con
scious.”
DEMAND IMPROVES
Additional improvement in con-|
sumer demand for farm products is
indicated for the next few months,
but gains from now on are likely j
to be more gradual than during the j
last half of 1940. Growing direct ef
fects of the defense program on
industrial activity, employment,
and consumer income are indicated
by the rapid increases in defense
expenditures. These rose from a
daily average of seven million dol
lars last September to twenty-one
million in February.
IN MEMORIAM
In memory of our dear uncle,
Hoke Willingham, who passed away
Oct. 22, 1939.
He was loved by all who knew
him, for he always wore a bright
smile for all.
That was a sad day
When the death angels took him
away,
But Jesus knew best,
For He took him to rest.
There was a vacant place,
And no other could take the place.
O, dear uncle, how we miss you,
But no more on earth you’ll roam,
We’ll prepare to meet you
In that bright eternal home.
I can think of nothing sweeter
than our meeting in the sky when
I reach that wonderful place and
get one glimpse of his dear face.
For I know he will be waiting to
greet me with a bright smile.
Written by one that dearly loved
him—his niece,
LUCILE WILLINGHAM.

BIGGER AND BETTER
AFTER CHRIST AROSE
(This poem is in connection with
the Sunday school lesson for March
30th.)
Though Jesus, our Savior, in the
tomb was placed,
He appeared again before their
face;
Though they were frightened and
seemed not to know
That it was Jesus soon after He
arose.
A spirit they thought that they had
seen,
But it truly was Jesus, our new
born King.
Then Jesus said, Behold my hands
and my feet,
That It is I myself, handle me and
see,
For joy and wonder they could
hardly believe,
But they ate before them where
they could see.
The things that were written in
Moses’ law
Surely did happen before men who
saw;
Now while He yet blessed them, He
was carried away,
Back up to Heaven on that great
day.
I They went back to Jerusalem with
joy-filled souls,
' They praised His name with won
ders to be told.
I As Christ went away, may He like
wise come,
j The lost should get ready, both old
and young.
