Edgewnter Park, Miss—The man

"outstanding performance” of service
in meeting unprecedeted electric
power requirements for prosecution
of World War 11.
Tlie award, accepted for the Com
pany by L, V. Sutton, president,, was
made here at the 13th annual con
ference of the Southeastern Electric

time Aid Program, your, company
rendered invaluable service to the
Naval shore establishments and. to
those defense plants engaged in
building ships and planes and num
erous other items required by the
Navy to wage successful warfare.
This service was outstading in effici
ency and continuity, resulting in
great savings of manpower and ma

terials, and was a real contribution
towards victory."
The scroll praises the company’s
management and employees for
meritorious service and outstanding
performance rendered beyond norm
al responsibility during World War 11.
In presenting the certificates of
appreciation to the electrical engi
neers who served as coordinators in
the Fourth Service Command, Gen
eral Newman said that they and the
coordinators in other service com
mands "comprise the largest' single
group of civilians to be so recogniz

Soil Reclaimed •
By New Tobacco
Roy R. Bennett, tobacco specialist
of the State College Extension Ser
vice, said in an interview that thous
ands of acres of disease-infested
North Carolina soil, abandoned in
recent years by tobacco growers, now
have been reclaimed following the
development of three disease-resist
ant types of tobacco.
In the late 1920’s farmers in many
sections of Granville. Wake, Forsyth,
Durham, Wilson, Pitt. Martin,
Harnett and a number of other
counties abandoned tobacco produc
tion because of land diseases known
as root rot, black shank and Gran
ville wilt. Tobacco varieties immune
to these still prevalent diseases, were
finally perfected in 1944 after years
of research in this country, Canada,
Cuba, Russia and South America.
Leaf growers in the widely scattered
sections of infection in this state
again are collecting millions of doll
ars a year from bright tobacco.
First of the new disease-resistant
types of tobacco to be perfected and
put into production in 1940 is C 401".
immune to black root rot. It was de
veloped in tlie course of 10 years at

who was placed under SIOO bond.

Pervis Day, Negro, drunkenness and
disorderly conduct; Ed Pass, Negro,
drunkenness; Robert Slaughter,
white, disorderly conduct; and Clay

Being Faithful
"Moreover it is required in stewards,
that they be found faithful.” I Cor.
4:2.
Faithfulness implies a firm adher
ence to the person of Christ. It
means loyalty. It is required of us
as. Christians that we be found
faithful and loyal to our Master. The
whole world joins in execrating a
deserter. He is hated even by those
to whom he sells his services. No
one has any respect for the Benedict
Arnolds or Aaron Burrs. What is
wanted is fidelity to Christ. Like the
Roman soldier taking the oath of
allegiance, so we bind ourselves to
fight With and for him even unto
death.
This fidelity implies a careful and
exact performance of the duties he
,• assigns us. It is required of a steward
that he be found faithful; that
means reliable in his work. That is a
prime quality in all business and
professional success. Business houses
want clerks who are reliable. Manu
facturers want men on whom they
can depend. Should we expect God
to require less of his soldiers than
business men expect of their em
ployees? In a terrible gale of 1851
the beautiful lighthouse on Minot's
Ledge, near Boston, was destroyed.
Two men were in it at the time. A

an estimated cost of $30,000 from a
simple beginning in r.n infested
Guilford County field.
Oxford 1,2, 3 and 4, which literally i
thrives on black shank land, was
turned loose to growers for the first
time in 1944, after 15 years of inten
l sive research and cross-breeding.
! Development of this variety cost an
estimated $40,000 in tax money.
\ The third new type of leaf and
perhaps the most valuable of all is
Oxford 26 which required more than
40 years to develop. It actually

Both federal and state funds were
used in the development of the new
tobacco varieties. Bennett said that
the $222,000 used in producing the
disease-proof strains is a "pittance”
when compared with their value to
farmers and the state.
A great share of credit for the
; new varieties goes to the men of the

great multitude gathered on the
shore waiting in anxious distress to
witness what seemed to be the in
evitable. But every hour the bell toll
ed the time, constantly the light
shone out into the darkness to warn
the sailors from the dangerous spot.
No wind could silence the bell; no
wave extinguish the light. But at
last one wave, one giant wave,
mightier than all the rest, rose up
in titanic strength and threw its
arms around the tower and laid it
low in the sea. Then alone was the
bell silent. Then alone did the light
cease to shine. Just such faithful
ness to duty as was shown by those
lighthouse keepers is the fidelity We
should show to the duties Christ
assigns us. One may be excused for
being unfaithful in trivial matters,
but when a soul is lost because of
our unfaithfulness to duty. God
suffers an irretrievable loss.
This fidelity implies also faithful
continuance in well-doing. "Be thou
faithful unto death, and I will give
thee a crown of life.” There is noth
ing in the history of Pompeii that
invests it with a deeper interest than
the spot where a soldier of Rome
displayed a most heroic fidelity.
That fatal day on which Vesuvius,
at whose foot stood the city, burst
out into an eruption that shook the
earth, a sentinel kept watch by the
gate which looked on the burning
mountain. Amidst the wild disorder
and confusion the sentinel had been
forgotten; and as Rome required

her sentinels, happen what might,
to hold their posts until relieved by
another, he had to choose between
death and honor. Slowly but surely
the ashes rise on his manly form;
now they reach his breast, and now
covering his lips they choke his
breathing. After seventeen centuries
they have found his skeleton stand
ing erect in a marble niche clad in
its rusty armor, the helmet on his
empty skull, and his bony fingers
still closing upon spear. Be thou, my
fellow Christians, likewise faithful
unto death, and yours shall be a
crown of eternal life. The story goes
that during the Revolutionary War
an important message had to be
sent to the firing-line. The com
manding officer sent for his own
son. gave hint the message and told
hint to deliver it at all cost. The
young soldier mounted his steed and
rushed off at full speed. The father
walked the floor in watchful anxiety.
Finally he saw his son emerge from
the dust and smoke of battle, having
faithfully executed his father's com
mand. As he approached, his father
rushed to meet him and threw his
arms around the broad shoulders of
his brave son and said, “Son, I sent
you on a perilous mission, but 7 had
to send someone whom I could trust.”
In the Great Commission, our Fath
er has commanded us to carry the
greatest of Till messages to the fir
ingline—the message of love and life
to a dying world. Can our Father
trust us?
