LIVING | Probably no single improved farming practice has increased the income and living standards of North Carolina farmers more than the comparatively recent use of hybrid com. Less than twenty years ago, only about 1% of our com acreage was planted with hybrid seed com; this year, about 90%. Higher yields, better quality and the dependable production under adverse conditions that hybrids offer add up to more profit per acre-and account for their rapid acceptance by our farmers^ Similarly, recent years have seen greatly increased acceptance of the “legal control” system governing , the sale of beer and ate in North Carolina, in the interest of temperance and moderation. * ' North Carolina Division UNITED STATES BREWERS FOUNDATION, INC, -v, .j- \ , ; U, ft* * *•' - | THE WEST—Virginia City, Ne vada, was once the richest city in the world. The discovery of the Comstock Lode, “The Big Bonanza,” in the ’oo’s and ’7o’s, brought out a fantastic treasure of millions of dollars worth of gold and silver bullion. Vir ginia City burgeoned and almost overnight became one of the wealthiest and gaudiest cities in the West. Garish and flashy mansions, restaurants, theatres, business emporiums and bar rooms sprang up. And to house all this wealth strong, impreg nable banks came into being; to augment and oversee Virginia City’s new and strange 'Midas economy. But in the Nineties the gold and silver markets col lapsed, and Virginia City hit the downward skids to oblivion. To day it is a memory, a lonely, delapidatcd ghost town—but such is life: Dust thou art, to dust returnest, man or city. No compromise with communism!

The Lesson-Sermon on ‘Truth” will include the following pas sages from the Bible (Luke 11: 11. 13): "If a son shall ask* bread of any of you that is a| father, will he give him a I stone? or if he ask a fish, will! he for a fish give him a set -! pent? ... If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts un-; to your children: how- much 1 more shall vour heavenly Father! give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?” The importance of prayer is. also emphasized in readings) from “Science and Health with; Key to the Scriptures” by Mary! Baker Eddy, including the fol lowing: “Prayer cannot change, the unalterable Truth, nor can prayer alone give us an • under standing of Truth; but prayer, coupled with a fervent habitual desire to know and do the will of God, will bring us into all Truth."
