Nazareth Junior Missionary Program Set The Junior Missionaries of Nazareth Baptist Church will host a spring program on Sunday, June 27 at 11 a.m. at the church in Wagram. ^ The speaker for the occasion will be Miss Rona Leach, a native of Maxton. Miss Leach was born February 9, 1951, in Laurinburg. She is very involved in church activities. She is a member of Sandy Grove Baptist Church. (Rev. John Foster, Jr. pastor) a member of Sandy Grove Baptist Church Senior Choir, Di _ rectress of Sandy Grove Youth V Group. The speaker is also involved in many civic activities such as the National Association of University "Things That Matter" ^ by L.'icien Coleman MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR TIME An old Chinese proverb says, "An inch of time on the sun-dial is worth more than twelve inches of jade." A contemporary writer had es sentially the same truth in mind when he penned the words, "Yes ?terday is a canceled check; tomor row is a promissory note; today is ready cash-spend it wisely." Most of us would nod our heads in agreement. Time is valuable. Everyone knows that. Yet, few of us spend it as carefully as we spend our cash. We let enormous quanti ties of it slip through our fingers without really knowing what hap pened to it. Consequently, we never have quite enough to go around. ^ This problem has no sure-fire cure. But there are ways to get more time out of the "wasted" column, so it can be put to work. Give some thought to the following suggestions. * Don't let yesterday use up too much of today. Yesterday is gone forever. It's water under the bridge. No use rehearsing yesterday's deci sions or regretting yesterday's mis takes. You can't do them over. ~ Concentrate on today. * Control your reading. Reading is one of your biggest time-sponges. Get out of the habit of reading things you don't need to read. Junk mail, for instance. Throw it away unopened. Don't kid yourself into believing that it won't cost you anything to see what's inside the envelope. It cost's time. And that's a loss you can never regain. ^ * Read everything like you read a W newspaper. No one reads a news paper word for word. You scan the pages looking for headlines and highlights that interest you. If they interest you, you read further. If not, you pass them by. Apply that reading technique to everything letters. books, magazines, whatever comes your way. Don't ready every word, unless it's a legal coniract. * Get into the habit of cutting ^ out all unnecessary words. In personal conversations, telephone calls, and letters. There's nothing wrong with a one-paragraph letter, it it can be said in one paragraph. Jot down what you want to say in a letter or a phone conversation, in outline form, and stick to your outline. * Utili/e time like you use the space in your suitcase when pack ing for a trip. Fill up the small J) spaces with small things. Keep "a list of things you can do in five minutes; then, when you have five minutes to spare, you can use it to good advantage. * Try to make the first hour of the day your most productive. Rather than "warming up" to your day's work, plunge in. You'll be surprised at how much work you can knock off that first hour. | * Schedule time for thinking. For example, use that 15 minutes it takes to drive to work to think through what you want to accom plish. And. remember, time wasted is jusl existence. Used, it's life.
