Living one day at a time with our Christ
Did you know that there are
at least two days in every week
that we should never worry
about, two days that should
always be kept free from fear and
apprehension?
One of these days is yesterday
with its mistakes and cares, its
faults and blunders, its aches and
pains.
Why worry about yesterday
since it has already passed
beyond our control?
Only God could turn back the
shadow of the sun dial and
reverse the process of time.
There is no blessing or
benefit to be obtained through
needless worry over the mistakes
of a day that has passed into
eternity. All the money in the
world cannot bring back

Teachers attend
Staff Workshop;
Donate to needy
By PAULINE LEWIS
Staff Writer
Perry High School was the host
school for a staff development
workshop entitled “Coordinating
Curriculum and Vocational Student
Organizations.”
It was an exciting, hands-on type
workshop which would prepare
instructors as they advise
their various organizations in the
coming school year.
The organizations which were
represented were DECA, FBLA,
FFA, FHA, HERO, TSA, VICA
and VOCA.
The workshop, sponsored by
The Charter Management Institute,
was held Aug. 1-4 and was the first
workshop of its kind in Georgia.
The 86 participants were
vocational supervisors, and
vocational instructors.
They simulated a year of club
activities in one week. They
received very good training from
coordinators from Alabama and
Georgia. The advisors from the
clubs formed four mixed work
groups.
As part of the program of work
for the week, they were asked to do
a community service project.
One group chose Perry’s local
Fall garden can be challenge, but rewarding
A fall garden is a challenge, but
well worth the effort if some basic
gardening principles are followed.
Now is the time to begin finaliz
ing your fall garden plans. A well
cared for fall garden can be quite re
warding, but it may require more at
tention due to increased pressures
from insects and diseases.
Several vegetables can be planted
now. these include both warm sea
son and cool season crops. One
warm season crop that can be
started now is snap beans. Some
cool season crops that can be
planted very soon are beets, broc
coli, cabbage, carrots, lettuce,
English peas, collards, cauliflower,
kale, mustard and turnips.
Preparation for the fall garden is
important. All old plant material
Rotary International Director to Speak Aug. 15
Dr. Aaron Hyatt, a Director of
Rotary International, , will be the
guest speaker at the Perry Rotary
Club on Monday, Aug. 15t.
Hyatt, who is currently the
President of Macon College, was
named a Director of Rotary at the
International Convention held in
Taipei, Taiwan in June.
Originally from Sylva, N. C.,
became a Rotarian in 1972. He
later became President of the Sylva
Rotary Club and Governor of a
yesterday.
We cannot undo a single act
once performed, we cannot erase
a single word that was written or
spoken - yesterday is gone.
The other day that we should
not worry about is tomorrow
with its possible adversaries, its
burdens, its greater problems and
its increased dangers.
It is a settled fact that most of
those things pertaining to
tomorrow are beyond our
immediate control. Tomorrow’s
sun will rise, if God so wills,
either in splendor or behind a
mask of clouds. Therefore, until
it does, we have no stake in
tomorrow - for it is yet unborn.
This leaves only one day -
today. Any man can fight the
battles of just one day. It is
“Loaves and Fishes” organization.
This choice was then presented to
the other three groups involved in
the conference
The entire conference
participants voted to support the
project.
Food items and money were
brought in and on Thursday
morning, August 4, 1994, many
pounds of food and a nice donation
of cash were presented to the
“Loaves and Fishes” organization
staff which included Alvalyn Pope,
Gail Baase and Aileen Harden. Gail
Baase graciously spoke to the
conference participants.
The instructors, representing
many areas across the State of
Georgia extended their appreciation
to the Perry High School staff and
administration, the Loaves and
Fishes organization and to Nancy
Bcggs, Director of the Chapter
Management Institute of Georgia
(who also was representing the
Georgia Department of Education).
They thanked them for giving
the instructors an outstanding
workshop, and at t\hc same time,
for allowing them the great
satisfaction of being able to help
fellow Georgians in need.

disease buildup and encourage plant
decomposition.
If diseases or nematodes are evi
dent, the infected plants should be
removed from the garden and
burned. Till the soil to a depth of
eight-to-10 inches if possible. Then
rake the area smooth to make a
good seedbed.
Seeds should be those of rec
ommended varieties. Seeds saved
from the previous crop should not
be planted due to the danger of dis
ease carryover.
Fertilizer and lime should be ap
plied according to soil test results.
One way to make the most of
your fertilizer is to split the appli
cations in two or three applications.
To do this, apply one-third of it at

for his heavy involvement in
Rotary’s Health, Hunger, and
Humanity Program.
Since 1985, he has traveled to
approximately 45 countries in
Central and South America,
Europe, Africa, India, and Southeast
Asia to work with Rotarians
developing 3-H proposals.
From 1992-1994, Hyatt has
served as Information Counselor to
the International President of
only when you and I add the
burdens of those two awful
eternities yesterday and
tomorrow - that we break down.
It is not the experience of
today that drives men mad. It is
n remorse or bitterness for
something which happened
yesterday and the dread of what
tomorrow may bring.

God)

planting in a band three inches to
the side and two inches below the
seed or plants. Put out the rest in
one or two sidedressings.
Watch weeds! They are persistent
this time of year, and will take over
the garden area if you are not care
ful. Use herbicides or cultivate shal
low, being careful to avoid plant
roots. Mulch if possible.
Watering the fall garden is an
important consideration also. On
light, sandy soils, about three
fourths inches of water per applica
tion is recommended. On heavier,
clay-type soils, it is best to water
once per week, using about one-to
one-and-one-half inches of water.

over 26,000 Rotary Clubs located
