section two-1 jli^^ j ggl SERMONS | TEXT: “Vanity is the quicksand of reason.” —George Sand. It is reported that the immortal Sarah Bernhardt was with a group of friends when- one of them commented that she could not understand the pe culiar manner in which a certain young lady had been acting. “I know why,” the great French ac tress remarked, “Someone told her that she had a beautiful profile, and ever since she has been trying to live sideways.” Good features will be noticed and Farmers Put ‘Eggs In More Than One Basket' Odell and Henry Chandler, Negro farmers of Belews Creek, Route 2, in Forsyth County, believe in “putting their eggs of farm security in more than one basket,” according to W. N. Knight. Knight, Negro farm agent for the Agricultural Extension Service, re cently assisted the Chandler brothers in securing a tractor for their farm. They had to finance the tractor through a lending agency, says Knight, and the first question the lender asked was, “What do you need with a tractor?” Knight says the answer given by the Chandlers represents the up-to date thinking on the part of a good many Forsyth Negro farmers today. The Chandlers explained that they were tired of depending on tobacco alone for cash income. “If something happens, we’re out of luck.” They explained that they wanted to convert 1 ■J'MIIIIIIIItIIiIIIIIIMIMIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIimiIIIIIIUMMIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIMIIMIIMIIIItdIIII* lllllltlltlllllllllllllllllllMMlSllllllQ 4 I Dollar Day I 1 SAVINGS For | I CRUEN CORUETTE.

How much better it is to ,1 spend time and attention on our f weaknesses, endeavoring to bring d them to the level of our virtues. The humility which comes with self i recognition of our shortcomings will avoid the quicksand into which our - reason can sink when we are vain r over a virtue. Time spent strength -1 ening our weaknesses helps us de } velop well-adjusted personalities more useful to our fellow-men and more 1 satisfying to ourselves. I some of their land into pastures and , grazing strips. This would enable them to keep 400-500 layers, a brood sow or two, and maybe a few head of cattle, in addition to raising tobacco. Henry Chandler summed it up: Nowadays a farmer cannot depend wholly upon one crop, but must have eggs in two or three baskets so if j somethings happens to one basket he j still has two or more others to fall v back on and still make a little money, y You won’t find a single merchant q downtown selling just one item; they all sell many.” Knight says that with the tractor the Chandlers will be able to do a lot more work around the Ihrm, which will speed them toward better diversi- fication.

C Oiling The Owner 1 “What do you find the most difficult - thing about a motor car?” “Paying the monthly installments ” It Isn’t True | “Only poor people get TB.” When you hear anyone make that statement, speak right up and say, “It Isn’t true.” A bank account is no barrier against tuberculosis. The disease is caused by a germ passed on by people who have active TB. It can attack castle 1 or. cabin. Poverty can make people more vul nerable to TB. Poor nutrition weak ens resistance to infection. Crowded slum livinfe conditions make it easy for germs to be spread from person to person. But most of us live and work in close contact with a number of people. If one of them has TB, some of the germs are likely to be passed on. This does not mean that the di sease will necessarily develop. The germs may live indefinitely in the body without doing serious harm. But if there is a heavy bombardment of germs, or if resistance is lowered by _ n n J - (J ~ - u — L -i_i $ Dollar Days $ AT BADHAM’S PI m/rc Black and Brown Kid *CI l)f| bluVto Broken Sizes Only * FAIL DRESSES K2 -' s# OTHER SPECIAL ITEMS BADHAM BROS.

The business man who can’t take time to eat prop erly and the housewife who diets un wisely lower their resistance to TB just as effectively as people who can’t afford to buy steak. There are barriers you cap build against TB. Good basic health is one. Cooperation with community efforts to fight the disease is another. Your tuberculosis association is fighting TB through education, rehabilitation, case finding, and medical research. “I TRIED TO KIDNAP STALIN’S SON” The astounding story of a U.
