Now, as then, they are "tempted to assume that there is a lofty standard of Christian morality for ministers only, and another, lower one for laymen. They | shrug off the promptings of , conscience by saying, “Oh well, I I’m just a layman.” There is no such thing as “just” a layman. For one thing, ■'laymen work from a position of I advantage in approaching non church people.

Aldrin Resistant Rootworms In Peanuts; During .the last 30 days I have learnd of sevral peanut fields in Chowan Coun ty infested with Aldrin resistant rootworms. This pest is the larvae of and caused by the 12- Spotted Cucumber Beetle. Last Friday afternoon, I at tended a field meeting at the C. H. Buck Farm in Drum Hill community of Gates County. On this farm several ihemicals had been applied in an effort to control the rootworm which has developed resistance to Aldrin. Diazanon at the rate of.' two pounds of actual materia) per acre, 20 pounds of 10% granules! applied in the row area ap peared to have given very good results. At the present time, 1 Diazanon appears to be the only | safe chemical that the Research Station knows of which is ef fective against this pest. As peanut growers dig their peanuts this fall I hope they will be on the lookout for root worm damage. Those who find .rootworm damage in their fields may let me know so that we can plan a control program for next year’s crop. If we know where the trouble is, then we are in a position to know where to strike at it properly. perior in the task of Christian i outreach because laymen are not 1 handicapped by the stigma of ( professionalism.

But when a layman | gives up a comfortable evening' at home to ring the doorbells of his neighbors and visit with them about the claims of Christ, his friends see an expression of : love and truth against which they have little defense. So let laymen rejoice in their oppor tunities to prove to a rather cynical world that Christians do not have to be paid to be good. Laymen have yet another ad- j | vantage in* evangelism. Every day they infiltrate the whole life [ of a community. They are the!; salesmen, teachers, but drivers,!: lawyers, policemen, parole offic- • ers, real estate agents and mer-1 chants. Probably every honest | vocation is represented among Christian laymen. Each oppor tunity gives some layman a chance to relate the gospel to the vital needs of men. From Gaius to the kindly face that welcomed you at church this Sunday, the laymen are the salt of the earth, God’s noblemen and the finest men we know.
