The Book of Proverbs, written mostly by Solomon, David's son, is a book of wisdom, of advice, addressed especially to young men who really desire to make the most of their op portunities in life. It answers such questions as: "Who is the wise man? What is the best way for an intelli gent person to conduct his life? Where can one find dependable guid-j ance for his life? Does wickedness pay? What are the results of wis dom in the individual's life? After all, what is wisdom? Dr. H. C. Moore answers: "True wisdom is more than knowledge, or skill, 01 judgment, or prudence; it implies the highest and noblest exercise-of both moral and intellectual powers. And requirements for certified seed. Seed certified last year are also eligible for certification this year if they pass requirements. Varieties which may be approved are: Coker 100, Coker 200, Farm Relief No. 5, Mexican, Deltapine, and Stoneville in the non-wilt-resistant group. NEW HOPE NEWS BOOK CLUB MEETS Mrs. Bob White, Mrs. R.

Mr. and Mrs. Boyce, of Portsmouth, Va., visited Mrs. Sallie Hurdle and stance, the provision under which at least $20 may be earned on any farm through conservation measures will be continued in 1941. If as much as $15 is earned by planting lorest trees, any larm may receiv as much as $35 under the program. The program also provides that on small farms where the maximum payment is not more than $20, any part of the soil-building allowance may be earned by carrying out local ly adapted conservation practices not incfluded in the National program. This provision will be applicable in designated areas where needed, and the practices for which payment will be made in this special group will be recommended by locall com mitteemen. Likewise, Floyd said, in areas where feed crops are not generally produced for market, any farmer may grow as much as 30 acres of soil-depleting crops without incurring a deduction for exceeding the total i soil-depQeting acreage allotment.
