A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most
High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm 91:1.
o
Wherever you are today, at home or abroad, you
move under the “shadow of the Almighty.”
You do not have to wait until God guides someone
else to safety before He can come to your side; you
have your own indwelling Spirit, who is with you
every moment and whose sole mission is to love and
care for you.
Likewise the person beside you or in some other
foreign country has his own indwelling Spirit, a part
of the great source. God each of you is protectde
and cared for through your recognition of this mighty
power. Should thoughts of fear come to you remem
ber that God can cast out fear if you ask Him, that
He is closer to you than breathing. He can and does
fill you with courage. He inspires you with good
judgment and wisdom, qualities that have much to
do with your protection. Claim your protection now
by realizing God’s presence with you; press on to the
days activities confident of His care, His guidance.

COMMUNITY CHORUS
o
There is no community east of the Mississippi Riv
er that is more talented for a community chorus than
the community in which we live. There are hundreds
of people in surrounding community who can sing
and really sing—we have the makings of one of the
finest community choruses of any place—far and
near..
Black Mountain is blessed with many music lovers
and after all what can be sweeter than good music
and good voices, good singers can not be made; they
are a gift of God.
It would be the greatest gift to Black Mountain,
that it ever had if the singers would get together and
form a Community Chorus and sing at least once a
■week for the coming summer.
This kind of entertainment is clean and wholesome.
Now why not the good singers of the community get
together and let’s have a Community Chorus.

ECHOES
FROM THE
MOUNTAINS
H. Grady Hardin.
Advanced methods in refining
wheat flour reached their peak
some years ago making the flour j
whiter and softer than ever. The
most beautiful bread that man
had ever seen! There was only
one flaw—the refinement had tak
en out the food value! Only in
the most recent years have we
known that the wheat going
through these refining processes 1
must be artificially enriched in |
order to gain back its value. Re
cent knowledge about vitamins J
has taught us that large segments
of our population even though •
eating a great deal were actually |
starving.
This is a parable of life. We
have added to life more of the “re
finements” than ever before- To
day we have the things most need- j
ed for more spectacular living— j
and also more spectacular dying.
The luxuries of life that have be
come available to most of us have
added to the glamour of our civil
ization. We are overcoming the
roughness of the former days,
and we have osught to produce a
life that is finer and easier. But,
again, there is a flaw—we have
left out the “food value” of abund
ant living. In other words we
have tried to sustain an excellent
culture without the moral values
that must be retained. There are
certain moral vitamins without
which we will die. Today we are
stuffed but starved. We must
learn to keep the real refinements
of our day and inject into them
the vital forces of faith and hon
esty and unselfishness and Godly
love or we will perish. The day
of our doom is at hand, the power
of our deliverance, however, is in
the vitality of the living God.

States, and measures two feet in

MARVIN L. GOLDEN
PROMOTED TO CAPT.
Marvin L. Golden, chief of edu
cational reconditioning in Moore
General Hospital, and widely
known throughout western North
Carolina for the many lectures he
has given before civic clubs and
industrial organizations, has been
promoted to the rank of captain,;
Col. Frank W. Wilson, post com
mander, announced Monday.
Captain Golden has been at
Moore General Hospital since
September 1943. In addition to
his work in educational recondi-!
tioning he has served as assist- j
ant to the special service officer,
and chairman of various official
fund drives such as Red Cross, the j
United W r ar Fund, and the March j
of Dimes drives.
Capt. Golden entered the service j
in July 1942 as a private from the'
principalship of Central Elemen
tary School in Fairmont, W. Va.
He was then appointed to the
Army School of Administration;
Officer Candidate School at Grin
nell College, graduation as a sec
ond lieutenant in June 1943. Be
fore coming to Moore General he
was assigned to Camp Sutton and
Camp Butner, N. C.
He was in the service during
World War I and for the second |
World War wears the American
Theater Ribbon, the Victory Rib
bon, and the Meritorious Unit
wreath.
Before induction he and Mrs.
Golden resided in Jackson Apart
ments, Fairmont Avenue.
Plenty Os Ham And
Eggs For Breakfast
o
The outlook from many reports
is that there will be a surplus of
eggs and poultry this coming
vear. The government is reduc
ing thp goals for eggs and poul- |
try. However, when returning
service men all over the country
call for ham and eggs for break
fast or call for two or perhaps
thr"e boiled eggs it will mean a
greater consumption of eggs than
we bad before the war. Just re
member this one fact: that West
ern North Carolina has never
produced enough poultry or eggs
j or milk.
Sinoo 1869 there have been
twenty-one major earthquakes in
i Japan, each of which killed more
than 1,000 persons.
SOIL CONSERVATION
IS NEEDED IN 1946
The farmers are slowly learn
ing that the most valuable rel
- that we have is our own
land, and we can no longer afford
I to see it wash away and go down
the hillsides into the creeks, and
rivers, and on into the Mississippi.
I We need the services of the Soil
j Conservation service in Western
i North Carolina. We want right
! away to have air photographs of
the farms in every county in
| Western North Carolina and then
help in using these photographs
] to restore and build up the pro
ductivity of the soil on every farm
| in the mountains.
We do not quite understand j
what is blocking our requests to j
| have the Soil Conservation service
j set up in Western North Carolina, j
! As far as we know this is a ser- j
| vice which is available to farmers
in any part of the United States
when they vote to bring it in. We
must set about to get the service
of soil conservation set up in the
mountain counties of North Car-
olina in 1946.
