A paper mill is a permanent plant involving a big in vestment, it requires an annual sup ply of woos just as a textile plant requires an annual crop of cotton. The paper mills located in onr sister State of Virginia don’t want us to sacrifice our timber and de stroy the possible chance for future crops by making clear cuts—taking all the standing timber at ohce. One of these mills in a recent advertise ment tfad this to say; “Fe<w Southern farmers are get ting £he most out of their woodlands. Some are getting a lot. They have discovered that there is a regular market for their pine of pulpwro* d . si*e. When -they thin thteir pine and sell -the "thinnings, they not cifily get ' cash mdney f*r them, but give the ’other -trees -a chance to .grow f aster. -Thus they gain dte -two ways.” iPine vtood four inohns and qip in 'dimeter is 'merchantable -as pulp vwood. -In full stands : of /second [growth shortfeaf Shd loblolly pines, 30 to 40 years old, -a farmer can cut by thinning Trom ’lO to 15 cords of pulpwood per acre, troth 2 to 3 cords extra of for the ifetqy-e qor tin such stands by thfe an^t3l»id f df v’«ittmg 300 to 400 of the straightekt, smoothest and .te-ees -will be on ’ each -o-jit ,shat tree, the tree 'that is crippled —that tree with top has » root system just tthe* ; *a»e size, there fore it can’t grow.

He will har vest a crop each year, and keep his timber growing. The man who cuts everything as he goes—will have one big bite and then a long period of no crop.

No one is considered well read unless thoroughly acquainted with the Bible. It is the most beautifully worded manuscript in the world and its fine prose will probably never be excelled. In its pages are included almost every sort of literature: Stories, bio graphies, letters, orations, prayers, hymns of praise and thanksgiving, fierce war songs, tender love lyrics, fables, proverbs, epigrams, genealo gies and chronologies* The vigor and dramatic force, the beauty and grandeur of the Bible are wonder ful. / Where did we get the Bible? The Old Testament is the record of the history of the Jews, who were monotheistic in spite of the power ful nations around and about that worshipped many gods. In the ©l'd testament are many promises of a Saviour and deliverer of His people. The New Testament deals with this Saviour Christ. The Bible teas first translated into various Eastern dia lects, then into Latin. Since then the whole of it has been translated into 106 languages, and parts of it into over 500. The greatest early Latin translation was anade fiy St. Jerome, mho lived about 400 years after Christ. Tlis ! translation is novr the official Bible of the Roman Catholic church. Cee&tnon, Bede, and other translators i»ave Envlantf ’ fragments of the Scriptures in i their own tongue but it was not i until 1382 that John Wyclif and ; followers copied out by hand the whole English Bible. Later others were translated and in 1609 and ' 1610 two volumes of the whole Bible were published. What is the value of the Bible? The Bible is invaluable to Chris tianity. It contains all of the fund amental doctrines and command ments necessary for carrying on the work of the Lord. The Bible is necessary for the welfare of humanity as a whole. Where, when, and how is the Bible to be used? The Bible may be used anywhere, church, school, home, mansion, hut, or the great out-of-doors. It may be used any time, especially if the user is in want of prayer, consolation, for- STATEMENT INDEPENDENCE INDEMNITY COMPANY PHILADELPHIA, PA. Condition December 31, 1929, A.
