200 Georgians
Attend Farm
Bureau Convention
MACON, Ga., Dec. 20—There was
complete unanimity among the.
200 Georgians attending the 30th 1
annual convention of the Ameri-,
can Farm Bureau Federation in
Atlantic City, N. J., last week
that a complete victory has been
won for agriculture in Georgia
and the nation.
The Georgia delegation return
ed late Friday afternoon. Tire
general theme of conversation on
the Farm Bureau special train
during the 24-hour run from
Atlantic City was centered on
' gratitude for the leadership of
President H. L. Wingate and the
fact that every indication points
to success in securing amend
ments to the Aiken Bill to con
tinue the present support price
of 90 per cent of parity when
quotas are in effect, according to
H. R. Yandle, GFBF director of
public relations, who accompani
ed the group to the convention.
In preliminary voting before
the resolutions committee, the
Georgia version of the price
support program suffered defeat
by a two to one vote. However,
“the fighting spirit of Mr. Win
gate never wavered and when
final action was taken by the
group before adjournament late
Thursday afternoon, the entire
matter was left with the AFBF
board of directors to recommend
to the 81st Congress a price sup
port level at 90 per cent of parity
whenever marketing quotas are

This makes it almost rhandatory
that the AFBF board go record

favor of this price support level.

PEANUT BOWL AT
COLUMBUS TO BE
NEW YEAR'S DAY
COLUMBUS. Ga.. Does the
North produce better prep stars
than Georgia? Do the Northern
high schools send better coached
football players to the colleges

champions, will meet once beat

Who has the better team? Well
that will have to be decided on
the turf of Memorial stadium
starting at 2:30 p. m. Jan. 1, but
all indications of the two teams
show them to he almost evenly
matched.
Westfield, an all out offensive
eleven, in the past two years has
amassed more than 500 points,
while allowing their opposition
less than 100. Their team is not

Fitzgerald, on the other hand,

Fruit lor Thought
CHRISTMAS
By Henry G. Walker, Pastor
Summerville Methodist Church
A check “Pay tb the order of
' Henry Walker,” a large pepper
( mint stick given in fun, a Her
. shey’s bar, a tie, and many other
’ gifts. All these 1 see as I sit here
to write this article. I smile as
‘ I see a personality here and one
there. Some bring precious mem
’ ories, while others bring appre
ciations that will grow' deeper
’ with the passing months and
~ yers. How helpful the gifts, but
' how beautiful and fragrant your
friendship and love.
’ i I can’t help- thinking of a cer
j i tain gifts given by wise men to a
J: little Babe on a Christmas morn
ing so long ago. The sentiment of
'i the wise men found its express
ion in gifts. They gave Frankin- I
J cense, a gift of fragrance. It was
the most fragrant of all incense,;
’ i and it was burned before the
’' veil of the temple and in the
1 most Holy place. They gave
1 Myrrh, a gift of friendship.
1 From these gifts we get an ex
cellent Christmas lesson. It is
impossible for us to gather round i
the manger cradle and offer gifts ,
unto our Lord, but He has said, j
Tn as much as ye tyave done it
unto one of the least of these ye i
have done it unto me.”
Our gifts should bring fra
i grance to the heart. As we pluck
| the sweetest rose and inhale its
; fragrance, so each gift should
I fragrance, sunshine and happi
ness, not only to the one to whom
it is given, but also to the giver.
“It is not what we give, but
what we share;
For the gift without the giver
is bare.
He who gives himself with his
alm,
j Gives .to three, himself, his ■ (
neighbor and god.”
Our gifts should be gifts of
' friendship. The tie of friendship
human heart, A true friend is an
inspiration as well as a comfort
is one of the strongest ties of
not so much for what he does
for us as by what he incites us to
do and be. because of his deeds
and his ideals. What others see
in us to admire, or to be grateful
for, is a result of what our
friends are and what they in
spire us to become. Friendship
cheers like a sunbeam, charms
like a good story: inspires/like a;
great leader: binds like a golden
chain; guides like a heavenly
vision.
Let us not forget that the joys
which come to us at the Christ
mas season, come because God
gave His Son, the greatest possi- i
ble gift, to us. This personal
thought comes to me, may I pass i
it on to you? .
Here I am. living through
another Christmas season. Glad

Greater Than Gifts
By H. L. Abrams
This will be the last Christ
mas for the children; next year
they will know.
The loving parents will go all
cut to make this the best Christ
mas of all because no longer will
theirs be just little ones.
There is something wonderful
about the way parents want to
do for those will be “grown up”
next year. In fact, there is some
thing about Christmas, mothers
and fathers, children, and every
thing, that is a special delight to
the heart.
But really and truly the chil
dren who believe in Santa Claus
go right on believing. They may
not have in mind the jolly old
man who was ever in their minds
at Christmas time, but neverthe
less that faith and belief in
j Goodness will ever remain.
Next year perhaps the children
i will not write letters; they will
not tell mama to tell Santa, but
■ they will have wishes to be full
filled.
There will be the thrill of wak
ing up on Christmas morning
and finding a wirst watch in
i stead of an electric train, a new
i dress instead of a doll.
Parents who have made
Christmas a great event for their
Testament to the early pages of
gospel story.
When I watch little children
hopefully write their Christmas
request, I know that Christmas
without hope and love would not
be Christmas at all. But more
than a child’s hope and love,
God’s hope and love are involved.
He hopes I will go give myself
to Him that His gift of love will
His son was given to me. This
Christmas I do receive Him as
readily gladly as a little
child receives his gifts.
