"I Progressive Haywood Baptists - We have known for a long time that there were a lot of Baptist s in Haywood, yet we must admit, along with some of the Baptist leaders, that little did we realize there were 11.222. The reports of the 53 Baptist churches in Haywood at the annua) Associational Meet ing, revealed besides the growth in mem bers, that the group was a contributing bbdy, when it came to money. During the Associational year, which runs from July 1 to July first, there was $355,849 contributed for all denominational work. Of this amount. $48,096 went for missions. The past year saw 969 added to the church rolls of the 53 Haywood churches. This is encouraging growth for any de nomination, and the interest of the group is commendable. Only recently, the Haywood body bought their Associational Missionary, Rev. Elmer fjroen. a lovely home, where he will main tain his office, and it will be headquarters for th? work, which is proving a definite benefit for the county, and making this an even better place in which to live. An Excellent Example One of the best examples of cooperation, and inspiration seen in a long time is at the Aliens Creek Baptist Church. There is under construction, in the heart of that growing' section of town, what is be lieved the second largest church in Haywood County. The auditorium will seat over 700, in a modernly constructed building, where many of the men of the church are working afternoons and nights, giving of their time and talents in the building of the sanctuary. Many of the young men and boys, while not skillet! artisans, are right in there doing their bit. from carrying brick and mortar to helping sand the woodwork. The new sanctuary will be 2f?0 per cent larger than the place where worship ser vices are now being held. On Sunday morn ing, the congregation plans to move into the new building, and there begin a week's re vival services. The spirit which has brought the building along thus far, carries on to the point that the builders feel they can fill the sanctuary with worshippers. To that end, they will de vete much of their energies. The program being carried on at Aliens Creek, to us, is truly the Christian, and Arperican spirit. And as long as men and women work together in harmony on such worthy projects, we have no fear of any ism taking hold in that community.

August 26. 1951 Growing, Growing Some 1,200 or more people are expected t attend the 15th annual meeting of the Hay wood Electric Membership Corporation meet ing at the high school Saturday. This is { big occasion for the members of the organi zat ion. They will hear re|)orts, and talks on th< progress of the cooperative during the pas year. The growth still moves forward, wit! now more than 4,100 members. It is a far cry from that day in July, 1939 when a small group gathered at Cruso, and saw the turning on of a switch that energiz ed lilies in and around woodrow. Little did that little knot of people think on that day, that 15 years later, the lines of the cooper ative would be spread into seven counties in two states, and more than 4,100 members would be served. If someone had been bold enough, even with a vivid imagination, to have described the beautiful home which the cooperative would build in Waynesville, and how a fleet of trucks with radio, connected to the main office, serviced hundreds of miles of lines, and thousands of customers, the prediction would have been described as fantastic, if not iust a plain crazy idea. All that, and more have come to pass. And today, many home owners are enjoying a utility which they have found indispensable. There's Always Change An old story tells of a salesman who at tempted to sell a farmer a set of books on how to farm successfully. The farmer turned him down saying, "I ain't farming half as well now as I know how!" F5e that as it may, farmers and ranchers are onerating farms more efficiently and suc cessfully than they used to?due both to work on their own, and to assistance and knowledge provided by organizations which have to do with the production and sale of farm products in one way or another. An official of the Department of Agricul ture has described improvements that have taken place in beef cattle production. Seventy years ago it took four and five vears for a lonehorn to reach a weight of 1.000 pounds? now it happens in less than half that time. In 1953. fewer than 1.000 beef carcasses were condemned during inspection because of tuberculosis?25 or 30 years aeo the nnm-' her of condemnations ran from 50,000 to 70 ooo animals. Believe it or not. the atom mav even affest the beat business of the future. "Pasteuriza tion" of meat through exposure to gamma ravs has been accomplished on a lalmratorv scale at the American Meat Institute Foun- I riat'on. The studies, which were sunnorted in oart hv ARC. have shown that shelf life; of nre-narkat'ed meats mav he extended five fold bv radiatrfoo doses with little, if anv. ; production of off-flavors, odors, or discolora-1 tions. This process is not readv for nractical J use and manv difficult scientific problems must he leoned out. Rut it may be an indica tion of things to come. Fn agriculture, as in anv entpro-Hsn. rhanee is always mine on. to the benefit of all. ?Euuora (Miss.) Webster Progress.

By JANE EADS WASHINGTON ? Giving the consumer dollar more sense is a theme Mrs. A. N. Satterlee of Min neapolis, Minn., will restress in outlining a sample program for American clubwomen this year. Mrs. Satterlee. head of the Con sumers Interest Division, Office of j Civilian 'Defense during the war. in her own home town, and now ! head of its Consumers Interests, a I unique volunteer educational agen cy, is using her experience as a j basis for her program planning as i newly named chairman of con-! sumers in the General Federation j of Women's Clubs' Department of the Home. "We want to work out a practical program that our millions of club women can follow in their own ways in their own communities ( that will help them to buy. use and take care of the things they need in their homes," Mrs Satter lee explained to me recently at the Federation's national headquarters here. "Consumer education as a rem edy for ignorance in buying, if taken in reasonable doses and well digested, will affect a cure." Mrs. ?Satterlee. a plumoish. bright-eyed Minneapolis contractor's wife and grandmother of five, believes.
