J BY REV. JAMES E. ELERSON >
The patient whom I was visit
ing was in pain, and a nurse came
to administer the necessary medi
cation to relieve his discomfort. I
am sure that the medication
brought welcome relief to the pa
tient, but there was also some
thing of radiance and reassurance
in the personality of the one who
gave it. I was glad that she did
not seem rushed and had time for
a few minutes of conversation.
As she talked it was evident
that the radiance of her person
ality came from a day to day walk
with the Master. There was no
note of complaint in her voice as
she told of the death of her hus
band some ten years ago after a
lingering illness. She had been
left with two small children —
twins, a boy and a girl. There had
been bitterness at the time of her
husband's death ... a rather long!
period of resentment ar.d self- [
pity until a wise Christian doc
tor and a patient Christian son-in
law had helped her to see what ■
she was doing to herself and her .
children by harboring such feel-!
ings.
Then had come an arduous per
iod of training to enable her to!
pick up the ravelled threads of
her life and to make a living for
herself and the twins. There had
been long hours of work during!
the day, and grueling hours of
classes at night plus the endless
tasks of housekeeping and being
both mother and father to her
children. Due to lack of training
and work experience, the jobs.
she could get paid very little.
But she had found the true
source of strength and courage in,
Jesus Christ, and the point of her i
conversation that stood out most
clearly was revealed in these.
words, “We thought we had se-!
curity when my husband was ■
living. We had a nice home, mon
ey in the bank, and a thriving ।
automobile business. But when
the expenses incurred during his
long illness were paid there was
nothing left. I learned then that
there is no such things as secur
ity in the things of this world.” :
Tears welled up in my eyes and
a lump came into my throat as I
seemed to hear the very voice of
the Saviour saying:
“Lay not up for yourshelves •
treasures upon earth, where moth
and rust doth corrupt, and where
thieves break through and steal:
but lay up for yourselves trea
sures in heaven, where neither •
moth nor rust doth corrupt, and
where thieves do not break
through and steal: for where your
treasure is, there will your heart
be also.” (Matthew 6:19-21)

and wonder,
I check myself, and say, the

Care Os
Winter Woolens
By WILLIE LEGGITT
Proper care and storage of win
ter woolens will eliminate your
name from- the list of horror
stricken people who unpack their
winter clothes only to find tiny
holes, compliments of the moths.
Sound protection against moths
is quite unspectacular, and is so
simple that few people follow the
necessary pattern. First of all, the
mast effective moth preventive
measure is to purchase woolens
and worsteds labeled “moth re
sistant.” In other words, let the
manufacturer worry about it.
But even if you may resolve to
confine all future purchases to
moth-resistant woolens, you must
think of your present wardrobe.
A moth-resistant treatment can
be applied to them the next time
they are cleaned and must be re
peated each time thereafter.
Whether protected against:
moths or not, all articles stored (
should be cleaned. If you didn’t |
specify to your cleaners to moth- I
proff the garments then you must
seal them. The moth grub can i
pass through a hole less than a
twenty-fifth of an inch. Cracks
in cedar chests, moth bags, and
most closets are much larger than
this. You must seal all crevices
with tape, and leave them sealed.
The best protection possible is
to wrap clean articles in heavy
kraft paper, seal all opening with
gummed tape, and wirte contents
plainly on the outside of the pack
age — don’t trust your memory.
When this is done, the packages
won’t have to be shifted, running
the risk of penetrating the seal
or tearing the paper.
Killing moths in flight helps re
lieve the frustrations of a house
wife who sees it, but this might
be classed as occupational ther
apy. The only value of seeing fly
ing moths is to know they are a
round. The moth egg represents
the most vulnerable period of the
life cycle. If clothes are vacuumed
the eggs will fall Out and will be
destroyed. The larval stage which
follows this is the period in which
the moths are most dangerous.
The larvae will be found in dark,
protected places and they prefer
to attack themselves to as large
an area of fabric as possible, so

CLEVER ELECTRIC POST LANTERN!
It knows when it's needed
It’s electric-eye controlled! Turns itself on
at dusk ... off at dawn. And gives you
light for nighttime safety, pleasure and
convenience with no waste from needless
daytime operation.
Each electric post lantern has a con
venient outlet right in the post itself so
that you can use other electric appliances
outdoors. You select brightness and color
of light with a choice of more than 70
different bulbs ranging for 15 to 200 watts.
For spring and summer, add an extra
room outdoors with an electric post lan
tern. Styles are available at your nearest
Georgia Power Company store or at your
local lighting fixture dealer.

examine creases, folds and seams.
Moth balls or flakes can be j
sprinkled generously among stor- [
ed goods. For an ordinary size p
garment bag, place about onej'
ounce of moth balls or flakes be- (
fore storing. Similarly, a pound
will add protection to the sealed
cedar chest.
These precautions will increase i
the factor of safety, but they
should not be looked upon as
substitutes for the purchase of|
moth resistant garments, the pror I
tection to be gained by treatments I
at the cleaners, the avoidance of (
common sources of infestation, i
regular brushing or vacuum j
cleaning of articles held in open(
storage, and the sealed storage |
of clean garments not in active:
use. (

Federal Health
Funds Says Sanders
Gov. Carl E. Sanders is in favor (
of individual states administering (
health programs which are financ- j
ed under federal-state-local funds.'
,He made this plain in a speech
I before the Georgia Public Health
i Association’s annual convention, j
held recently at Jekyll Island.
I “I believe," he said, “that in]
1 the interest of the most efficient!
and effective program of state ->nd I
local public health, we are obli
gated to press for more general
‘block’ grants from the federal
government which leave the de
cision-making with regard to the
individual programs up to the
particular states.
“Public health, as you know,
is becoming more and more spec
ialized and complicated, and there_
. fore I feel th e governments in
: volved should not seek to add
to the present complexity by al- j
lowing grants to be blindly ad-1
ministered. To a large extent, the'
sad truth is that the federal
agencies involved tend to think
amout public health problems
. i from a federal control standpoint,
। which simply does not work to
: the advantage of the people in- (
( volved.
j “Our over-all desire here is to
! find away whereby our three- ■
l way partnership can be made
more meaningful — perhaps with
I each level putting up money in
, j areas where each has a common
■ i problem but without blanket pol
• I icy decisions being made only on
>' the federal level.”

“I give much credit for my j
( own success as governor of Geor- ।

I °
f responsible support of the doily
i and weekly newspapers, and to
their counterpart in radio and
'television. Many of the accom-
Iplishments of my administration
I would not have been possible
(without the support and coopera
(tion of the news media of Geor-
I gi'a.”
Thus declared former Gov. Er
i nest Vandiver in a recent speech
(before a joint banquet of Univer
i sity of Georgia chapters of Sigma
(Delta Chi and Theta Sigma Phi
: journalism societies in Athens.
| He added:
“Georgia’s progress throughout
; her history has been accelerated,
(not by editorialists who wielded
(venomous pens to produce words
lof sarcasm and slander, nor by
(writers and reporters who twist

Extremely acid soils can limit
cotton yields, even when these
soils have been adequately ferti
lized. This fact, says Extension
Service Agronomist P. J. Ber
geaux, was demonstrated last year
on a number of Georgia farms.
Acid soils can be eliminated by
having a soil test made and then
applying the recommended rates
of lime.
