(Leason Text: Job 14:13-17; 17: 13-16; 19:23-29) have renounced, his honesty, his sin cerity, his closeness with God. That suffering was turned into good the salvation of the world if they only accept him. Many Farms Need Better Drainage Poorly-drained fields, now a lia bility to many North Carolina farm ers, could toe changed into profit- makers if proper drainage systems were installed, says H. M. Ellis, agri cultural engineer of the State Col legeExtension Service. Land drainage is a major problem with the average farmer of the Coastal Plain area of the State. Also in nractically all of the Piedmont i counties and in many of the moun tain counties, there are considerable acreages that are not yielding full returns in harvest and money be cause of inadequate drainage. Eiis explained that drainage is the removal of surplus water from the soil, either naturally or by chan nels artificially constructed. Surplus! water is the excess above that needed from day to day for the use of plants and that stored in the lower layer of the earth as a reserve sup- ply during dry periods. For practicaly all crops grown in this State, it is necessary to have a quick drainage, Ellis pointed out. Where natural means do not take care of the rainfall rapidly enough, it becomes essential to supplement the natural water channels with ar tificial drainage. The artificial channels used must This lesson is a continuation of our study of last week. After seven days of silence, in which the three friends of Job sat beside him to com fort him, there begins a discussion as to why this terrible punishment had been sent on Job by God. One by one, the friends speak, and after each speaks, Job answers, pro claiming his innocence of the sins which they insist he must have com mitted to have had these afflictions visited upon him. While we do not have the space to discuss the argu ments given by the three friends, nor the answers given by Job, those who would understand this lesson more fully would do well to read the Book of Job from the fourth chapter through the nineteenth chapter the basis for our consideration this week. Although stoutly insisting that he is innocent of the sins which nisi friends believe responsible for his condition, Job finally sinks into a slough of despondency. He cursed the day he was born and asks God! that he be permitted to die if he can J no longer count upon the favor of; God. He denounces his friends as: "miserable comforters" and, in the wnrHs nf .Tmfi Aitketi. he turns i "once more from his friends to Goal be so constructed and situated as to Himself.

I Then another round of discourses The cheapest and simplest method of surface drainage is shallow ditches that follow the low depres sions through the field. Best loca tions for the ditches can be deter mined readily after a heavy rain when the water is standing on the ground. Tile drains are best and cheapest in the long run for under ground drainage. 4 Bridge. If they have time, the club mem bers will take a side trip to York town, possibly returning to Tide water Virginia by way of the James town Ferry. Small Plots Grow begins between the three friends and ' Needed Vegetables Job. They decry his arrogance and j apparent irreligiousness. Job's atti-1 Growing enough vegetables on a tude during the first round of the ; plot 25 feet square to feed a family controversy is the example of a wicked man's impatience under ca lamity, and their opinions that he was guilty of some secret sin is con firmed. Losing patience with Job, they use all the arguments they know to prove to him, by past ex perience and observation, that it is the wicked who suffer and the right eous who are rewarded. The effect of these accusations and the insistence of his friends that he was a sinner raised Job's suffer ing to the point of extreme mental anguish. He realizes the apparent distrust of his friends, the fact that God has denied him justice, has stripped him of his glory, relentless ly persecuted him and had wounded him almost unto death. However Job's wonderful faith in God cannot be destroyed even by thege unex plainable things that have ' happened unto him. He knows that there must be some way for him to escape from his misery, that there must be some reason for hia suffering. He thus reaches the spiritual crisis of his life either he must sink into everlast ing despair or he must see God through all his suffering. Job then utters his everlasting confession of faith in the goodness of God "As for me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and at last he will stand up upon the earth; and after my skin, even this body is destroyed, then without my flesh shall I see God; whom I, even I, shall see, on my side, and mineeyes shall behold, and not as a stranger." He was confident that even though he couldn't understand the workings of God in this life, after death everything would be revealed to him and that his righteous life on earth would be vindicated by a just God. It -would be well for us 'to remem ber 1 that many of the greatest ad vances that have come to human be ings have come through suffering. By his suffering ' and death on the cross, Jesus demonstrates his un dying love for sinful man. If be had avoided the cross, he would and then have a surplus for canning is being accomplished in a Davie County mill community, reports H.i R. Niswonger, horticulturist State College Extension Service. Intensive cultivation of small plots' of ground is keeping a large per-J centage ; of the! Erwin Cotton Mill workers in Cooleemee well-supplied with wholesome nutritious food. Although some of the gardens oc cupy from one-fourth to one-third of an acre, many are only 25 to 50 feet square. Of the 350 white mill families, 250 are using their back yards to grow vegetables. In addi tion, all of the 25 Negro families have gardens. Advantage is taken of the favor able growing season during the spring and summer to build up a sur plus for canning soup mixtures, snap beans, tomatoes, kraut, ami other vegetables. One woman re ported canning last year 30 quarts of soup mixture, 10 cans of tomatoes and 12 cans of snap beans from a garden 25 feet square. Also, she fed a family of seven with fresh vegetables. To stimulate interest, a garden contest is held each year. Farm and home agents of Davie County and Miss Maude Graham, social service worker for the mill, select the best gardens. Prizes are offered for the best plots. ' f Every inch of ground is utilized, with the outside edges of the garden and the sides . next to the houses planted to flowers. The distance be tween rows varies from 12 to 24 inches. Inter-planting and rotation 'of crops are practiced. Niswonger said these gardens con tain all of the . .popular vegetables. these being planted m succession so as to make fullest use of the land. WOODVILLE Y. W. A. MEETS The Mattie Norman White Y.
