islative proposals now being con
sidered." W. W. Miller, Jr., of
Charlotte stated today.
As president of the North Caro
lina Motor Carriers association,
Mr Miller was speaking for the
North Carolina trucking industry
in a year-end statement and 1955
outlook. . , . -
Mr. Miller, also president ot
Miller Motor Express, Inc., Char
lotte, went on to add that lew
businessmen are timid about pre
dicting a record or near-record
year for 1955 for manufacturers of
most goods. Sixty percent of man
ufacturers surveyed by Dun &
Bradstreet expect increased sales
for the first quarter of 1955.
“This means good business for
the trucking industry,” Miller pre
dicted. "In a normal year, truck
ers handle 75% of the nation’s to
tal freight tonnage. We can ex
pect at least this amount of the
increased national production to
move by truck in 1955.
“Particularly affected by this
beneficial increase will be the more
than 1,800 North Carolina com
munities served only by truck, he
pointed out. “Expected increases
in employment will swell the al
ready high 150,000 employee list
of the trucking industry in North
Carolina, thereby raising our econ
omy.

God’s readiness and willingness
to heal sickness and sin today, as
He did in Christ Jesus’ time, will
be set forth at Christian Science
services this Sunday.
Scriptural selections in the Les
son-Sermon entitled “Truth” will
include the account of the success
ful healing missions of Jesus’ dis
ciples, as recorded in Luke’s Gos
pel, (Chapters 9, 10).
The ever-availability of the
Christ, Truth will be brought out
in readings from “Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures"
by Mary Baker Eddy, including
the following: “Truth is God’s rem
edy for error of every kind, and
Truth destroys only what is un
true. Hence the fact that, today,
as yesterday, Christ casts out evils
and" heals the sick." (142:31).
The Golden Text is from Psalms
57:3: “God shall send forth his
mercy and his truth.”

Something about a barn a "i,iU 1
night ,
Eludes the world of day . ■ ■ an
all around
Is breathlessness: i> softest u,
star-bright.
Replete within a certain deep pro
found.
A pigeon wing flicks lightly over
head,
A tiny avalanche drifts front the
roof—
A fieldntouse rustles in its lon>
bed,
The heifer shifts ... as if on vel
vet hoof.
What is it holds the winter still
ness in
While all the warmth of summer
time spills out?
What force can draw one to a barn
. . . and spin
A shining web of faith from fea?
and doubt?
Has it to do with quietness of
snow ?
Or manger thoughts ... a barn
had long ago?

“Ought not winter be represent
ed by things that suggest hope
rather than despair? The lamb
born in the fold, the bud alive in
