S'co that Wh'Ch U An Intelligent- approach to life calls for an understanding of prin ciples governing thought and action. Our lesson for today recognizes that every act and thought of man brings , consequences, either good or bad. Man himself must make the deci sions of life, and what he sows he must also reap. Matters of crucial importance, to modern young people are involved " In our lesson. They are asking uiese qays, "Snail I listen to God's voice, or is that Just old-fashioned nonsense? What about obeying par ents? Should I drink Intoxicants? 'Everybody' does why should I be different? Of course, I don't want to be a drunkard or ruin my future life, but I'd like to have 'my fling can't I have It and still avoid dis astrous consequences?" The answers to these questions are in our lesson. May God help young people to find the right answers, and enable every teacher to present the truth clearly and ef fectively. I. Safe Counsel (Prov. 1:7-10). No sane person wants to make a fool of himself. He Is looking for the right way and will lend his ear to good counsel.' Here it is "The fear of the Lord Is the beginning of knowledge" (R. V., "wisdom"). Fear of God is not a cringing ter ror, but a sincere appreciation of His wisdont and a desire to do His will. The best counselors a boy or girl has are father and mother. Only a fool will pass up the golden oppor tunity of profiting by their experi ences and avoiding their mistakes, and will miss the opportunity of car rying forward their high hopes. Those who fear God and honor their parents will not be misled by the enticement of sinners (v. 10). They Just will not "consent," and that settles it. n. Steps to Ruin (Isa. 5:11, 12. 18-23). Isaiah lived and ministered in a time of prosperity, which led to drunkenness and immorality. This in time led, as it always does, to the decay and destruction of the na tion. We face similar moral con ditions today. Let us not shut our eyes to the lesson so oft-repeated in history and in false security go on to national ruin. . We need outspoken and deter mined opposition in civic, social and religious circles to the liquor traffic and to all the vices that follow in evitably in its train.' The portion of our lesson from Isaiah vividly por trays the downward path of the drinker of intoxicants. Ponder it well, young man and young woman. III. Seedtime and Harvest (Gal. 6:7-9). Everywhere about him man sees the inexorable operation of the law of cause and effect, of sowing and reaping, and yet he listens to the lies of Satan and of his own lustful heart and tries to convince himself that the law may be suspended in the realm of the moral and spiritual. Sowing to the flesh always brings corruption. No matter how well ed treated, no matter what his position in life, or his family connection, the t 1 4 1 bt. da J.jnlr Km man wnu uinee ins lust uiu started on the road to a drunkard's grave. Statistics reveal that the victims of drink come from every strata of society and every circum stance of life. Young people, the sure way to avoid the consequences is to not take the first drink. Sowing to the Spirit brings "life everlasting." That, too, Is always true. There is also another pre cious truth: namely, that by turning to Christ the one who has begun on the downward path may stay the ruinous hand of sin upon his life. Taking Christ as his Saviour, he finds regeneration and renewal of life. The Works of the Lord Praise ye the Lord.- I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation. The works' of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. Psalm 111: 1. As Lambs Among Wolves Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, -nor scrip, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way. And Into whatsoever house ye enter, first 1y peace be unto this house. Luke 10: 3-5. One Point of View If we can not hope that lift will be all happiness we may, at least, secure a heavy balance on the right side. . . - The God Within "God worketh In you." This Im plies the actual presence of God at the center of our being. Secretary Of Agriculture Wallace For Vice-President Closely Identified With Problems of American Agriculture . In nominating. Henry Agard Wal lace to be Democratic vice-presidential nominee, a man has been selected whose name is perhaps more closely identified with1 the problems of American agriculture in the public mind than any other. As secretary of agriculture during tlie past seven years, he stirred sharp controversies by his -effort to 'boost farm prices and income. Those controversies, unlike Wal lace hirrtself, were often dramatic. The Wallace policies, involving production control, price-pegging, large governmental expenditures on farm subsidies, and other regu latory measures, ; took the govern ment down a new path, hailed by supporter. as promising farmers economic justice," but denounced by opponents as establishing a "regimented, socialized" agriculr ture. Wallace, who will be 52 next October 7, is a mild-mannered man who has devoted most of his life to agriculture. Reared on a farm in Adair county, Iowa, he since has functioned in three major fields agricultural economicst . breeding experiments,' especially, in corn, and editorial work, principally agricul tural. Is Prolific Writer A prolific writer and speech maker, the nominee devotes talmost the whole of his time to the task at hand. In Washington he is seldom seen at social functions, preferring instead to spend his free hour, with his family. He has no recreational hobbies except walking to and from work and tossing a boomerang. In conversation he gives, the im pression of self-consciousness. He likes to wear old clothes. Once he went on a vegetable diet consisting chiefly of corn and soybean pro ducts. He dropped the diet, how ever after he had lost 12 pounds. But he still eats sparingly of meat. Wallace now occupies a cabinet post held by his lather, Henry Caritwell Wallace, under President Harding. His grandfather, Henry Wallace, was a member of Presi dent Theodore Roosevelt's country life commission, an agency , which studied ways and means of improv ing agricultural conditions. All three Wallaces served as editor of Wallace's Farmer, an agricultural magazine published at Des Moines, la. After leaving the farm to at tend Iowa State college, the pres ent secretary of agriculture devot ed himself to agricultural econom ics. He devised the first corn-hog ratio charts to indicate the prob able course of livestock markets, published an elaborate study of farm price-making factors, and during the war, and immediately after, he presented forecasts of the post-World war decline in agri cultural prices. Supported Al Smith In the late twenties he became active . in movements for federal legislation . designed to improve sagging farm prices. Failure of the Coolidge administration to enact such legislation led him to active support of Al Smith in .1928 rather than Herbert Hoover, the presi dential candidate of his own party. In 1932 he supported Franklin D. Roosevelt The latter made him secretary of agriculture; The nominee married Ilo Browne of Indianola, Jowa, in 1914. They have three children, Henry JJ., born in 1915, Robert B., born in 1918, and Jean B., born in 1920. New Immigrating Laws "For American Interest" When the United States immi gration service changed hands from, the Department of Labor to the Department of Justice, one of its historic policies changed also. Up to this time the United states iios followed a policy of admitting all unobjectionable aliens up to quota limits. This is changed now, how ever, and in the future it must "affirmatively appear" that the ad mission will be "for the American interest". Attorney General Robert H. Jackson announced, when the im migration service came unedr his jurisdiction, that a new policy of "more strict control of the privi ledge of entering this country" would be followed by his depart ment The Attorney General made his announcement upon the transfer of the immigration service. He said that he favored the legislation now pending in Congress which would require the registration of all aliens. "The doctrine that any person may come to this country unless it is shown that he is a menace must at least temporarily yield to the policy that none shall be ad mitted unless it affirmatively ap pears to be for the American in terest." The Attorney General stated. He further warned that the ex isting immigration laws would be administered with "scrupulous fair ness" as a safeguard against aliens becoming willing recruits into the ranks, of tho fifft Column, Arm Signals Prevent Accidents "Every driver in North Carolina is supposed to know the various arm signals and their, meanings, yet hardly a day goes by but that an accident occurs somewhere in the state as a result of some driv disregarding a signal, failing to give a signal, or giving a wrong signal.'' '''. In connection with' the above statement, Ronald Hocutt, director of the Highway Safety , Division, reported this week that 100 acci dents occurred in North Carolina last year as a, result of drivers failing to give a signal before coming to a stop or making a turn. Another 341 accidents, 23 of which were fatal, resulted from disregard of signals. "Entirely too many North Caro lina drivers take the attitude that arm signals are unimportant," Ho cutt said. "The average driver gen erally gives rio signal at all, or gives the wrong signal, before stopping or turning. And some driv ers seem to think they .have given an adequate signal if they simply flutter their hand out the window of. the car. Others slick their hands out and down regardless of whetehr they plan to make a left turn, make' a right turn, or come to a stop." 'Remember," the safety director cautioned, "the driver behind you and the one approaching you are not mind readers. The purpose of arm signals is to let the other fel low know what you are about to do. Courtesy, caution and com monsense demand that you give signals the proper signals and you pay attention to the signals, given by the other driver. And if you do give' proper, signals when driving, be sure that you give them in ample time for the other fel low to act upon them. Giving a signal too late is virtually as bad as giving no signal at all." State Will Safeguard Physical Welfare Of Power Project Crews RALEIGH Necessary equipment is being set up for the complete physicial examination of approxi mately 1,000 men to be employed by the Aluminum Company of America on its new $10,000,000 hydro-electric developments at Nan-' tahaJa and Sylva, it was announc ed here Friday . by Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, State Health Officer and T. A. Wilson, Chairman of the North Carolina industrial Com mission, lhe work will be done by the Division of Industrial Hy- giene, a conjoint activity of these two state agencies, of which Dr. T.F. Vestal and M. F. Trice are co-direct.ors. i Each prospective employee will undergo- a complete pro-employment examination, including an x ray check-up of the chest and a serological test, Dr. Reynolds point ed out, declaring that "this will be a striking example of what every employer should do to aid in the preparedness program whether for the performance of duties within the community, in training,-or at the front "Of course, the government see to it that men actually engaged in military service are physically fit" he went on, "but why not correct, at the source, conditions which made a third of our man-power unfit in 1917?'' he asked. "The cooperation of the employ er in this instance and the re sponsibility assumed in tire phy sical preparedness program as. re lates to the employee was. well il lustrated when the request came that we make these examinations. According to published reports, these hydro-electric developments are being made for the purpose of supplying the government with material necessary for adequate national defense. "Representatives of the contrac tors called on the State Board of Health and requested all neces sary information relative to the State's requirements for the exami nation of men engaged in. dusty trades. They explained they were about to begin operations which would subject their employees to siliceous dust hazards in the dirll ing and handling of thousands of cubic yards of silica-containing rock, and that they desired to take all necessary precautions for the protection ' of their employees on the two projects. "The Division of Industrial Hy giene," he continued, "is now en gaged in setting up the. necessary offices and equipment on the site of the operations for the purpose of giving these men the complete physical examinations referred to. "The State Board of Health ap preciates this cooperative spirit on the part of the employers in this instance and every effort is being put forth to aid this project and hasten it along. '.What are you doing, Mr. Em ployer, to aid in the physical pre paredness" program?" he asked, re ferring to others who, in his opin ion, might follow the example of those for whom examinations now are to be made. Highlands Radio Operator Causes Excitement Here Arthur K. Woodman of High lands and West Palm Beach Fla., caused a mild flurry of excitement along Main street here Monday when he drove-in a coupe bearing an impressive U. S. Army plate on its front bumper. It turned out that Mr. Woodman, who has an impressive appearance himself being well over six feet and weighing, accordingly-is an. amaieur radio operator and a mem ber of the Army Amateur Radio Stations. Hence the plate with his station's call letters W4GFN on his automobile; . According to Mr. Woodman, the A. 'A- R. S. is an association of amateur radio stations, under army supervision, and subject to duty in times of national or local emer gencies. Thus for instance, were a cyclone to strike Highlands and wipe out all other means of com munication, Mr. Woodman and his 100 watt . station would be able, to establish communication- with ama teurs in other cities, bringing and directing relief work. "I think it's a very good nation al defense measure, too," Mr. Woodman said. . He is spending the summer at j Arrowhead, Lodge in Highlands, j where he intends to remain until j the first snow fulls. PULPS INDUSTRY HELPS JFORESTS Paper Companies Urge Conservation Of Forests ATLANTA. When pulp making started blooming into a $200,000,000 southern industry some three years ago, foresters feared that over cutting and depletion of timber resources, might follow. Today,' southern officials of the United States forest service have found -that the pulp paper indus try is the chief non-government proponent of forest conservation. This is especially noteworthy, they; say, because pulp paper mak ing is the "scavenger industry" of the forests it uses malformed trees and the tops and parts that are worthless for lumbering. Pulp mills began buying up tracts to assure themselves of a source" of supply. They now own some five million acres of the two hun dred millkm acres of forest land in 12 southern states. Forest conservationists reaHzed the mills would establish- forestry practices to keep their tracts in perpetual growth. What worried them was, the vast, independently owned acreage. . Could independent' owners, for whom the potential ready cash from pulp pine might prove a glit tering lure, be forestalled from cuting off their trees? There are no legal restrictions on a private owner's use of his trees. " The pulp mills polled financial support and created Southern Pulpwood Conservation association 18 months ago. ',...' Seventeen pulp companies, with 25 mills (there are 50 in the south) representing 75 per cent of the pulp paper production of the south are association members. To carry out their program of "better forest economics for the other fellow's trees," the associa tion set up dozens of demonstra tion cuttings of pulpwood tracts, sent out more than a million pamphlets and "seed tree tags." The "seed tree tags" are placed on healthy, well formed trees se lected in each acre of private tracts. They are "keep off signs for the axe. C. F. Evans, assistant regional forester; declared this "the most outstanding .example of industrial self-regulation by any business con nected with our forest resources." The association's theme is that a forest tract should be treated like a farm not like a mine, and the need for reseeding and ' additional growth should be kept always in mind. To add weight to the argument, the mill owner added "Save your pulpwood resources and we'll buy your pulpwood."
