It is attracting the at tention of the townspeople as well as furnishing considerable pleasure to Mr. Byrd. Many of the local people did not know anything like it existed until only a few days ago. Today there are some 1,530 titles of talking books. These are being distributed to more than 30,000 sightless readers throughout the country. It was in 1934 that Dr. Xeno phon P. Smith, then head of the Library's Division for the Blind, began to carry out Thomas A. Edi son's prophesy that the phonograph would some day be "dandy for the recording of books for the blind." The present chief, G. A. Schweg mann, Jr., says the recorded, books include the Bible and most of the good books past and present. "The collection," he said, "must meet the needs of those who wish to study and read the Bible and of a much larger group like their sighted friends, who prefer the la test current novels, detective stor ies, westerns, and books on politics, economics and history." f For years the program struggled along on meager funds, but now it's booming under the impetus of a million-dollar appropriation from Congress. The division has more than 30,000 talking book machines In use; 12,000 were sent out during fl949. The goal now is 65,000. ; Machines are furnished free and may be kept indefinitely.

Recordings and readings are made at New York's American Foundation for the Blind and at the American Printing House for the Blind, Louisville, Ky. Readers are generally professional radio an nouncers, selected by recording studios. The average book consists of 20 records with two sides. They are recited at the rate of 165 words a minute, compared with the ave rage of 350 to 500 words per min ute by sighted readers.

READING: Pnlm 111: Repentance Lesson fee Jane 11, 1951 , ZEPHANIAH seldom has been any reader's favorite prophet. His pictures of. doom are enough to send shudders down arty one's spine. It is as realistic ai if he were describing H-bomb day. But the main point of Zephanlah is plain and practical: Re pent! For , selfish man and stubborn nation, that, is .the first necessity of alt Repentance is Dot merely regret ting something, one" has dons. Anybody - go right on committing the same sin. Furthermore, a man's regret for something he has done may be for a wrong reason. Suppose an adulterer Is sorry for the publicity he got when the news papers caught up with, him? Sup pose a lazy fanner is sorry,, at harvest time, that he didn't work harder during the summer? That sort of thing is not repentance at all. Also, repentance la not Just repentanoc-in-generaL It Is one thing to sy, "O God, I am . sinner." It is quite answer thing, and harder- one, to' kneel and say to God: "Ton know well what a liar I have been' Repentance is not real unless It ft honest; and it is not honest till the repenter looks squarely at his own sins, knows them for real sins and is willing to call them by the ugly names they deserve. Repentance As The Bible Sees It THE BIBLE MEANING of re pentance is something radical, something life-changing. As the prophets and -our Lord set It be fore us, it means a total change of inner attitude and viewpoint It does not mean so much stopping something you enjoy, as it means enjoying something altogether dif ferent from what you used to en Joy. For example, you never truly repent of pride until you are really humble on the inside. You never have fully repented of selfishness so long as your biggest "kick" comes from kicking other people around. Repentance means a re direction of life. It means loving whatever good you heated and hating whatever evil you loved. The question is: Are yon eon tent to be what yon are, as yon are, or do yon sincerely want to be a better, Indeed a differ ent person? For that, the grace of God Is necessary. For re pentance means nothing short of being made over. Are you aware that by yourself you are doomed to be yourself, your worst self? What Is needed is not that you shall make yourself over, what is needed Is that you shall pray God to make you over. His grace Is not forced on the un willing. The change may not come all at once, not overnight. Yet'sure ly, and It may be swiftly. There have been persons whose lives have changed In a single night in a single moment There are others whose life - transformation has come slowly. But wherever real repentance is, there the Spirit of God has been at work. Why Repentance Is Needed ZEPHANIAH POINTS UP the same two reasons for repent ance that we find all through the Bible. One reason Is the Judgment of God; the other is the promise of God. These are two aides of the same thing. Man does not live In his own uni verse. He lives in a universe which ha could not have created in a sense he Is a guest of It It is a universe God created In love, and rules In love, - Work and live "against the grain" of God's law of love, and you are headed for de struction. ' To repent means that yen , come rat new. In lbs Image at God. Not to repent means that yon are a breaker of God's ' . laws because yon da not like his laws. To repent means that (In the langaaga of the ancient ' Fsahnlst) yon lore the law of .' Ood"i';:i4'-"'-'!-V' , . r .. it'.' ' - To the unrepentant, the. laws of God are like the bars of a cruel cage. To the repentant, the laws of God are like rails to a locomotive toe highway of power.

ORN EAR WORMS CONTROL FORMULA, By L. F. WEEKS . Corn ear worms have ' already began to appear in early sweet corn fields. ' This insect is very destructive. The moth lays her eggs on the tassels or oh the silks, after the eggs hatch the little worms en ter the ears of corn to feed on the tender grains and there is where the damage is done. Produce buyers tell us there is no market for worm infested corn. Housewives will not buy it. On the other hand the buyers tell us they have little or no trouble selling all the good grade, worm-free corn that they can get, usually at good prices. The ear worm can be controlled by spraying or dusting with DDT. Spraying or dusting should start when silks first appear.
