PAGE FOUR I—32CTIGi? TWO THE MARK OF MAN By TERRY JONES ' Have you ever wondered what this world would be like if there were no human life liv ing here? It is possible that it might be even more beautiful than it is now. Os course, it is not possible to know because man has left his mark on the world. As we travel down the man made highways we see the mark of man in the form of adver tising signs. There are signs advertising almost everything from church services to all types of alcoholic beverages. I came to realize the mark of man one day as I walked through a large wooded area. I came to a beautiful tree that showed a small example of the wonderful creation of God. As I observed the tree more closely I saw filthy and vain words that had been carved permanently in the beautiful bark. For the first time I realized the mark of man. Still man has left his mark in Merry Hill News By LOUISE B. ADAMS Mrs. Hezzie Morris, Mrs. Wil liam Willis and children, Betsy and Bill, Mrs. Robert Sessoms and daughter, Ellen.

This disease has spread until the whole world is infested with it. Man has left his mark on the very Son of God. For hundreds of years the Jews had been waiting for the blessed Messiah to come and save them. Then at last when He came in the form of the man Jesus they wouldn’t even accept Him. They beat Him, crowned Him with ' thorns, nailed Him to a cross and broke His bones until He died. Man left his greatest mark jon one man. It was the shoul ! ders of one man that bowed with every sin that man has ever ! committed or ever will commit, I but this man was capable of it i lor He was the Son of God — : Jesus Christ.

Sitting To Work Uses More Energy For years homemakers have been told that to save energy) they should work sitting down.' But laboratory tests show that women actually use four per cent more energy when sitting, rather than standing, to wash dishes and do ironing. U. S.

JULY 39, IMI. these tests at the annual meet-! ing of the American Home Eco nomics Association in Cleve land. These studies are part of con tinuing research on energy use, which is providing basic infor mation needed to improve hous ing and household equipment, and to develop ways to do housework with less effort. Before advising homemakers whether to sit or stand for dif ferent jobs, the researchers say they need to know more about' the real causes of fatigue and! whether their finds so far apply to longer work periods as well I as to the short periods used in the tests. For these studies wo men subjects worked at each job for four minutes. Many house hold tasks don’t require spend ing a long time in one place, and in homes with small children j even long jobs like ironing are I apt to be interrupted. The studies show that lifting ■ things from kitchen counter to ' shelves above the counter takes | more energy when done from a sitting position—an average of four per cent more for a five pound object. To roll out dough takes nine per cent more energy when you are sitting on a kitchen stool ! than it does when you’re stand ing. Getting on and off a kitch !en stool adds to the effort of j work done while sitting. [ Counting the energy used in : this manner plus the extra ener |gy used to wash dishes sitting i down, the researchers found that | women seated used a total of 13 j per cent more energy for dish ; washing than they used when ! standing up to do this job. | Although- these results favor, standing for short tasks to save on energy, the researchers em phasize that saving energy is only one of many considerations in deciding whether it’s best to work sitting or standing. Such decisions are important in plan ning kitchens and other work areas. DOG DAYS ] _ s These are the times that try men's souls, and their air-con ditioning units—the “dog days.” Gone are the perfect days of June and in their place are about 40 days of hot, sticky weather that clings from early July to mid-August. You might have guessed it was the Greeks who gave us the name for this summer misery. World Book Encyclopedia says the ancients derived the name from the dog star, Sirius, which rises with the sun during this period. Os course, the uncomfortable commuter might disagree and insist that the days were so named because dogs are most likely to get rabies at this time, as some superstitious people once believed. Sirius, the brightest star in the heavens, radiates about 27 to 30 times as much light as the sun. That’s not why the weather is so hot. but it is a reason why we pay any attention at all to the star. Another reason is that Sinus, which is the head of the con stellation Canis Major, or Great ; Dog, doesn’t travel alone. It has a companion star made up of material that is about 50,000 times as dense as water. One -üb:c inch of material from this star would weigh about one ton on the earth. This fat friend was the first '< h “white dwarf” star discov ered.
