also report many historic places

country.
From their observations along

that there is a favorable upward

FARM AGENCY TO

Two-Day Convention in
Raleigh

Raleigh, Dec. 29-The Farm Secur-
ity Administration got down to the
real business of tackling the tenant
problem in North Carolina when
county committeeman from seven of
the II counties in which loans will be
made this fiscal year gathered here
to discuss in detail plans for the pro-
gram.
The county men are today winding
up a two-day session at this every
angle of the situation was thoroughly
discussed. Vance r. Swift, State dl-
rector of the tenant. land purchase di-
vision, presided. J.~B. Slack, assist
ant regional director and E. r. Hin
son, from the Washington office of
the land purchase division, were pro-
minent in the discussions.
Stressed all through the meetings
was the fact that the program is to
be de-centralized one, with it's sue
cess or failure resting almost exclu-
sively upon the manner in which the
local committees function. z
Loans in the II North Carolina
counties will total approximately
| $527 900 between now and the end of
the current fiscal year. Not less than
five nor more than ten loans will be
approved in each county.
1t was emphasized that the county
committees will be in complete con-
troll of the selection of tenants to
whom loans shall be granted and of
! the farms on which loans will be
made.
Applications for the loans can be
made Immediately and for about the
next 80 days to the county supervisor
i in each county. County committees
have been given discretionary pow
ers to set the time limit for applica-
Success this year is important in its
hearing on continuation of the pro
gram. Under the Bankhead-Jones
Farm Tenant Loan Bill it was recon-
mended that $25,00Q,O0O be made avail
able for the program next year and
! $50,000,000 for the year after> that. For
the current year total of $10,000,O0C
has been appropriated, but no appro-
priation has been actually made for
succeeding years.

Today's Church
Message
BY REV. J. EVERETTE NEESE
YOUR "PET' SIN.

Do you have pet sin, my broth
err? You have? Then did you ever
realize that that pet" sin may be
keeping you from a deeper and more
spiritual life in Christ?
On one occasion DR.. Alexander
Whytle told a story of a man who
dreamed that he saw Jesus fastened
to a whipping post and a soldier
standing with a whip in his hand. To
the lashes on the whip were fastened
bits of lead meant to make each
stroke more strongly felt. The soldier
raised his hand and brought the whiD
hard down upon the back of the Mas
ter, and as he raised the whip again
blood could be seen issuing from each
place a lash struck. AS the soldier was
ready to strike again, the dreamer
rushed forward and when the soldier
turned his head the dreamer recognize
ed himself. We often think how cruel
those men must have been who
scouraged and crucified Jesus. But, we
must remember, that whenever we en-
gage in that pet" sin, or do wrong
we cause the heart of Jesus to bleed
with sorrow and pain.

Sunday Morning

"A New Earth" is the theme OF a
sermon Rev. d. A. Petty, the pastor
plans TO preach next Sunday morning
at II o'clock at Cokesbury NJ 81.
church. 1t is intended as a New Years
message, pointing out the fact the pre-
sent generation lives in world tha-
is not static but is constantly chang
ing.
Rochester's quotation, "Since It's
natures law to change, constancy
alone is strange"
Rev. Mr.. Petty today gave this out
line of his sermon:
"When the Jewish nation had set
tied down to the static religion OF the
Pharasces, and the pagan world had
settled down to a program of war, and
the philosophy that might is right ,
Jesus came on the scene announcing
New Heaven and a New Earth. he
told static Nicodemus and Saul of
Tarsus that they "Must be born
again." Old things must pass away,
all things must .sccome new.
with every recurring year AL
things become new" No day of nine
teen thirty-eight has ever been lived
before. The new year is symbol OF
the new nature that every man may
have. There is no necessity for any
person to remain a slave to former
habits or conventions; for just as
there is a power in nature that makes
things over, there is also a power IN
the world that makes life over.
Neither Nicodemus nor the world has
ever understood this principles; for
both reply, How can these things be?
Can man be born when he is Old?"
Don't settle down to the unchang-
ing, monotonous, hum-drum life OF
former years, when God is making all
things new constantly, and will fill
life with meaning, purpose and in
terest if you will launch out into the
depths of the ocean of His grace. 1t is
inexaustible You are invited to hear
this New Years Message at Cokesbury
