‘*What would you do if a bear

Sarah asked her brother. ,
“I’d climb a tree," hey broth

“But bears can climb trees,

“Not my tree,” said the boy.

Have A Safe Labor Day * |
Holiday |
Labor Day week-end, the last|
holiday of the summer season, j
is just a few days off.-'. Most
people make big plans for this
holiday. Some will take to the
highways for a last week-end
at the mountains Or the coast.
Some will plan a boating ex
cursion; still others perhaps will
be spending. the week-end at
home with a little outdoor
cooking and possibly catching up
on odd jobs.
Unfortunitely, the Labor Day
week-end often ends in tragedy
for some families. Scores of
people across the country will
lose their lives in traffic, drown
i ings and other holiday accidents.
The National Safety Council
reminds us to be careful and
asks us the following questions:
" Traffic—
1. Naturally you have checked
the ggs and oil but have you
checked the brakes? How are
yqur liras? Do thp windshield
wipers work? Are all your lights
working?
2. If you are.,taking a trip
you’ve probably-, decided where
you’re going. Have . you looked
at the map?- Have you picked
the best, highway? Confusion
about routes is a common source
of accident* • -
3. How much time are you al
lbwing for the entire trip? Will
i you be returning home after
I dark? Do you know that there
I are many more cars on the road
1 on a holiday week-end and that
, there are increased hazards as-.
ter dark?
• Public Accidents —
1. If you are going in the wa
ter, do you - plan to swim in
supervised areas, and will you
keep careful . .and < .continued
even near”he -water"
2. If you have a boat, .-have
it checked as -.you have your
car? Have you made sure that
there are life - preservers fort
each person in the boat?
3. Have-you kept in- mind 4he
danger in over-exertion and
over-exhaustion in becoming a
“week-end athlete”?
Home— :
1. Are you making sure that
potentially hazardous areas—'
home swimming pools and play
equipment, for example, are
safe?
2. Have you taken necessary
precautions to make sure that.
all your home equipment is safe

American Foods
For Better Living
‘Better Food for Better
ing from America” will be fea
tured at the U. S. Department
of Agriculture market promo
tion exhibit at the British Food
Fair in London, England, Sep
tember 1 to 17.
The exhibit will demonstrate
the availability, quality and
uses of U. S. food products, and
is expected to increase the de
mand for those products in
Britain and continental Europe.
It will include wheat and wheat
products;, honey; canned and
pre-cooked (including frozen)
poultry; nonfat dry milk; rice;
fresh, .canned and dried fruits;
soybean- ‘ products; meat and
lard> and' miscellaneous pack
aged and .frozen foods.
Miss Jo Earp, food and nu
trition - Specialist for the N. C.
Agricultural Extension. Service,
reports that; some products will
be sold to exhibit victors to
increase the latter’s familiarity
with them. Products to be soldi
will include honey, canned half- 1
I phicken, rice and certain frozen!
or packaged “convenience” i
j foods.
The British Food Fair is one
jof the world’s largest interna
tional trade fairs. In 1958, when
a U. S. Agricultural exhibit was
last presented, the fair drew
over 300,000 people from many
countries. Nearly all of these
visited the exhibit.
The United Kingdom is the
world’s largest buyer of U. S.
farm products, as well as the
world’s largest agricultural im
porter. The U. S. exhibit is
designed to expand British use
of American foods even more.
It will be presented in coopera
tion with U. S. private trade
groups as part of the Depart
ment’s continuing program of
foreign agricultural market de
velopment.

“Seeing dearly is a matter

GOD'S HAND IN HISTORY
International Sunday School
Lesson for September 4, 1960
(Memory Selection: “The Lord
of hosts has purposed, and who
will annul it? His hand is
stretched out, and who will turn
it back ” (Isaiah 14:27).
Lesson Text: Isaiah 10:5-34;
14:24-27.
Today we continue with our
series on “God’s Way in His
tory.” And today Christians
may profitably examine the
question of; How does God
work in history?
Beginning with verse five of
chapter 10 in the Book of Isaiah,
we find a section on the judg
ment of God against Assyria,
which country the Lord had cho
sen to defeat all those nations
which had put their trust in
false gods. Assyria, however, had
become somewhat intoxicated
with her own success, thinking
it was in large measure due to
her wisdom, and that the subju
gation of the Israelites proved
that God had now power; As
syria, therefore, entertained
dreams of world domination, and
it was therefore necessary that

the Lord demonstrate to them

In the somewhat chaotic times
in which we live, many are per
plexed by the questions; does our
life on this planet have mean
ing and purpose; is there any
rhyme or reason to things? The
Christian answer is a resound
ing and vigorous “yes”! That
answer is deeply rooted in the
convictions of the Hebrew pro
phets who, living in times no
less chaotic than ours, never
theless viewed all things as
working together in conformity
to the grand design of one su
preme God. They steadfastly be
lieved that such a God was ac
tively present in every event in
the history of man. Can we.
as Christians, accept any lesser
belief?
Studying recent history, we
are confronted with apparent
contradictions and chaos, the
meaninglessness of world events.
Less than twenty years ago, Ger
many was our mortal enemy, a
foe whom we must destroy at
all costs. Once Germany was
crushed under overwhelming de
feat, everyone agreed that she
must never again be permitted
to become an industrial giant or
a military power. And during
