And the earth was without form, and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.” — Genesis 1:1-4. Williams' 66 Ser.

Hodges, who declared May 3-10 to be Soil Stewardship week in North Carolina. We fall in line with the Soil Conservation Districts of America in observing this Soil Stewardship week, even with our churches. Thomas Jefferson said, “While the farmer holds title to the land, actually it belongs to all the people because civilization itself rests upon the soil. Those who la bor in the earth are the chosen people of God. Whose breast He has made His peculiar deposit for substantial and genuine virture.” Insist upon your church observing this important week. There are many ways we may keep our earth in keeping with our pledge. Save The Soil Trees, shrubs and grass will save the soil. Thoughtless people who manage their farms badly, such as: careless farming, over-grazing of range and pasture, is a loss to soil.

Forests should be kept produc tive. Always leave enough trees to replace the ones being harvest ed. It means money to keep the forest growing. ' Protect our drainage basins so the growth may save the soil. When campers, ranchers, farmers and lumbermen use the water basin they should protect it by saving the small plants, the flowers and wildlife. If we protect the water basins and keep our land clean and healthy, we can prolong the use of water for all growing things. Wildlife, birds, mammals and fish provide recreation and money for millions of people. We should protect wildlife with food and shel ter and water.

Enjoy the great outdoors of liv ing color, protect the wild flowers. Be careful to replace anything you don’t transplant. Leave some for others to enjoy. Campers please don’t abuse growing things.
