LIVE-AT-HOME WEEK
BEGINS FEB. 16TH
Governor Cites Fact That 16Va
Million Dollar* Added to
State Last Year
Raleigh, Feb. 6. ? The week be
ginning February 16 has been desig
nated by Governor O. Max Gardner
as the second annual live-at-home
week in the schools, it was announced
today at the office of State Superin
tendent of Public Instruction A. T.
Allen,
Material and suggestions for the
preparation of programs have just
been sent to e/ery high school prin
cipal and superintendent. A daily
radio program will be arranged with
the several radio stations of the
state.
"I have designated the week of
February 16, said Governor Gardner
in his message to the school children
which has been sent out by Supt. Al
len, "as live-at-home week in the
.schools. During this week I hope ev
ery teacher will place emphasis on
the live-at-home program in her class
room work.
"The results of the live-at-home
week in the schools last year were ex
ceedingly gratifying. At this time
the live-at-home message was carried
to 875,000 school children by 25,000
teachers in the 6,000 schools of
North Carolina.
"Frankly, the work of the teachers
and the school children was in no
*mall measure responsible for our
adding $16,500,000 to the value of
the 1930 food and feed crops produced
in the state. It is hard to estimate
the real relief that this work has
brought to farmers and farm tenants
this winter.
"The public schools of the stat9
last year," Supt. Allen says in his let
ter to county and city superintend
ents and principals, "through their
activities in connection with the live
at-home program, demonstrated, in
my opinion, their economic values as
well as their civic and educational
worth.
"Agreeable, therefore, to the desire
of His Excellency, Governor O. Max
Gardner, I am requesting the school
forces of the state to cooperate to the
fullest extent and to the limit of
their strength in the promotion of
the live-at-home idea through the ac
tivity of the school children."
FARM MAKES MONEY,
SAYS UNION FARMER
As the live-at-home campaigners go
about the state urging the adoption of
better farming methods in 1931, they
are constantly finding good farmers
who are making a success of their
business and are putting aside some
cash each season.
Such a person is Z. K. Simpson of
Marshville, route 2, in Union county.
Mr. Simpson is a young man, only
39; he is married; has five children,
and owns the place he bought on
credit in 1919. T . J. W. Broom,
county farm agent of Union county,
says Mr. Simpson bought a farm of
78 acres for $3250 in 1919. A small
inheritance of between $600 and $700
from his father was paid on the
place and with that start Mr, Simp
son began farming. The farm was
poor with no improvements, only a
small house to live in while he
fought for something better.
Today Mr. Simpson has the farm
all paid for. In addition he has built
: tuw home costing S3500 cash; a
new barn costing $500 cash; a new
uoultry houses costing $500 cash, and
has installed a $t,000 water system
for his home, barns and poultry
In addition he has $1,500
loaned out, has 22 bales of good cot
ton in storage and has a nice check
ing account at the bank.
The details of how he won this
from the 78 acres of soil is interest
ing but hard work and common
sense backed the enterprise. He first
standardized his fertilizer problem
by using 1000 pounds of a 10-t-4 fer
tilizer per acre for his cotton. In 1930
lie ?,a:!c ! I bales on 12 acres; in
1929 he made 10 bales on 1" acres;
in ' '*"* ?* }? -nade 13 bales on 12 acres,
and in 1927 he made 23 bales on 18
acres. lie rotates his crops, has fill
ed his s?>il with humus so that the
fertilizer is more profitable and he
has never run a time bill at the store
nor bought feed and foodstuffs. His
gross inuomo each year from poultry,
surplus milk, and garden stuff is
over ?5,000 in addition to his cotton 1
and other cash crops.

THE PRAYER CORNER
THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT
To Comfort All That Mourn
"The God who exists is the God
and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the God who so loved the world that
'He sent His Son, not to judge the
world, but to save it. He is the God
who anointed the Lord Jesus Christ
to bind up the broken hearted and to
proclaim liberty to the captives. And
the opening of the prison to them that
are bound and to comfort all that
mourn."
Please notice tnat ALL, not a few
select ones only, but all Eevery cap
tive of sin, every prisoner of infirm
ity, every mourning heart through
out the whole world, must be included
in this ALL. It would not be all if
there should be one single one left
out, no matter how insignificant or
unworthy, or even feeble minded,
that one might be. I have always
been thankful that the feeble minded
are especially mentioned by St. Paul
in his exhortations to the Thessalon
ian Christians when he is urging
them to comfort one another, 1 T-ftess.
5:14.
In effect he says, "Do not scold the
feeble minded, but comfort them. The
very ones who need comfort most are
the ones that our God, who is like a
mother, wants to comfort, not the
strong minded ones, but the feeble
minded.
For this is the glory of a religion
of love. And this is the glory of the
religion of the Lord Jesus Christ. He
was anointed to comfort "all that
mourn." The God of All Comfort
sent His Son to be the Comforter of
a mourning world. And all through
His life on earth He fulfilled His Di
vine Mission. When His disciples
asked Him to call down fire from
heaven to consume some people who
refused to receive Him, He turned
and rebuked them and said? "Ye
know not what manner of spirit ye
are of. For the Son of Man is not
come to destroy men's lives but to
save them."
He received sinners and ate with
them. He welcomed Mary Magdalene
when all men turned from her. He
refused even to condemn the woman
who was taken in the very act of
sin, but said to the Scribes and Phar
isees who had brought her before
Him, "He that is without sin among
you, let him first cast a stone at her."
And when convicted by their own
conscience, they all went out one by
one, without condemning her, He
said to her, "Neither do I condemn
thee, go and sin no more." Always
and everywhere He was on the side
of sinners. That was what He was
here for. He came to save sinners.
He had no other mission.
Two little girls were talking to
gether about God, and one said, "I
know God does not love me. He could
not care for such a tenny tiny little
girl as I am." "Dear me, Sis," said
the other little girl, "don't you know
that is just what God is for, to take
care of teeny tiny little girls who
can't take care of themselves, just
like us." "Is He?" said the first
little girl. "I did not know that.
Then I don't need to worry any more,
do I?"
If any troubled doubting heart, any
heart that is fearing continually ev
ery day some form or other of evil,
should read these lines, let me tell you
again in trumpet tones, that that is
just what the Lord Jesus Christ is
for ? to care for and comfort all who
mourn. "All," remember every single
one, even you yourself, for it would
not be "All' 'if you were left out.
You may be so cast down that you
can hardly lift up your head, but the
Apostle tells us that He is the "God
that comforteth those that are cast
down," and it is just because you
are cast down that you can claim the
comforting of Christ. All who mourn,
all who are cast down ? I love to
think of such a mission of comfort
18 N. C. COUNTIES
SHARE IN U.S. FUND
Schaub to Direct Loans to State
Farmers Suffering From
Drought
North Carolina counties from which
applications for loans from the
drought relief fund will be accepted
at Washington are: Alleghany, Ashe,
Caswell, Forsyth, Franklin, Gran
ville, Guilford, Person, Rockingham,
Surry, Stokes, Vance, Warren, Wa
|tauga, Wilkes, and Yadkin. In these
,16 counties drought damage was very
serious. - In two additional counties,
Union and Wayne, farmers suffered
heavy losses from hail storms.
Dean I. 0. Schaub, director of ex
tension at State College, will super
vise the distribution of the fund in
North Carolina but actual placing of
the loans to individuals will be pass
ed upon by a local county committee
before forwarding to Washington.
Mr. Schaub held meetings at Hender
son and Elkin during the past week
for explaining the situation to the
county agents and county committees.
At these two meetings it was an
nounced that the government is ready
to begin distribution of the loans and
all applications will be acted upon
within 48 hours after their receipt in
Washington, provided the applica
tions are properly made out. No one
person will be allowed over $600 and
the aggregate loan to all the tenants
of one landlord will not exceed this
sunt.
I he money will be distributed as
loans, and not as gift3, declares Mr,
Schaub. All loans will be due on
November 31 and are protected by a
chattel mortgage on the crop. If the
crop has been previously mortgaged
or hypothecated in any way, waivers
must be secured by the applicant be
fore he will get a government loan.
The note securing a loan bears inter
est at 5 per cent. Loans are paid to
the farmers in installments.
The loans will be made for seed
for planing, fertilizer for plant food,
dust and spray for protecting the
crop, feed for the livestock and oil
and fuel for the tractor. No farmer
who can get local credit or has other
source of income will be allowed to
participate, says Dean Schaub.
in a world of mourning like ours, and
I long to see every east down and
sorrowing heart comforted with this
comfort of God. (to be continued )
A PRAYER
Almighty and Everlasting God,
whom no man hath seen at any time,
who art Spirit, and the Father of
our spirits, unto Thee do we come.
We would tell Thee all our wants, our
sorrows and our sins, that out of the
fullness of Thy Grace we may re
ceive healing and forgiveness. We
lament our desires covetous of world
ly things, the coldness of our affec
tions, the prayerlessness of our lives,
the want of relish for Thy law. For
give us all that our resolves to lead
the higher life have been so easily
broken, and grant us true resentence
that henceforth we may build our
lives on the abiding foundation of
Thy Holy will as it is revealed in
Jesus Christ. Cause us to walk in
the paths of purity and sincerity, to
renounce the hidden things of dishon
esty, and to have no fellowship with
the works of darkness. We pant for
a purer air, a wider space.
0 God, lead us out of the twilight
of our own dark narrow souls into
Thy Glorious Light, that we may be
the children, not of the night, but
of the day. Strengthen us that we
may finish the work Thou hast given
us to do. Comfort us in troubles that
wait upon our earthly lot. Guide us
through the shadows of time into
Thy Blessed Eternity. Amen.
