Robert Lee Kincheloe
Minister to the
Gre mbelt Community Church

From the literary efforts of certain Young Peo-
ple's group in large Washington Church comes this
provocative editorials:
ABOUT what kinds of things are your thoughts?
Saint Paul told his disciples to keep their thoughts
on Whatsoever things true, whatsoever things are
honorable, whatsoever things just, whatsoever
things lovely, whatsoever things are graci ous.,
"Probably few of realize how much our thoughts
determine the kind of person become. To be a fine
Christian, must have fine Christian thoughts. All
our words and actions di gnate in mind. often
blame actions the circumstances. T'e would
be more nearly correct if blamed our actions on
daily thoughts.
MILDRED Rhoads says in the book, "The Self You
Have to Live With" Every resentment that is en-
couraged every mood that is welcomed, every gdge,
every anlmosity, every rebellion against life, every
dependency, every snug conceit, every unjust self
;-and on the other hand every selfmastery,
every high fortitude, every facing Of naked truth,
every ringing faith every lovely ideal every SPLEEN
did courage: every makes either for the breaking
down of the finer self else for building up.i
"From the book comes the following quotation,
Aspiration nolds the soul in better way than dis
like. Appreciation is more creative than aversion.
Thou ts Of admiration and high desire emotions that
courageous and inspiringit is by these that we
are made to grow into abundant truer ife,
a more harmonious inner state and stalwart
perconality.i
"nnat kind of person you? What kind of per-
Will you be? These questions be answered by
asking, what your thoughts?n
Young People responsible for that kind of edi-
torlalzing are certainly to be congratulated.
Prayer for today: ~?Te entreat Thee now of
Thy grace to call back from the ways of temp

Longieof Pine Seedlings
Are Still Available

jackson, Miss, Nov. 6.-With two
million longleaf pine seedlings still
available at the Covington County
State Forest Nursery, State Forester
Fred B. Merrill again calls attention
TO the desirability of this species
for reforestation work. He says that
in addition to the fact that longleaf
is less susceptible to fire damage than
the other pines, it also appears to be
very much more resistant to the
canker disease that is causing so
much damage to slash and loblolly
pines in South Mississippi.

A funeral is always sad occas-

those who have mart in the service
do well otherwise it is more so. Only
yesterday we attended a funeral
which we feel we must tell you
about in our way. AS we noticed
the arranging of the flowers. we
thought the lady who had charge
talent and training. While the
floral offerings were both many and
beautiful, the arrangement which
made the colors blend added much
to their beauty. We thought what
a talent, then when the same lady
with another lady sang the selec-
tions chosen as we had never heard
them sung; and we would not forget
the minister, young man who is
leading out beyond to a point that
many men of the cloth do not
reach, many years after they leave
college, if ever. He said something
worth while when he spoke-then
quit. Yes, we are queer, or we
would not have told you-queer
