60 SECONDS OF
WISDOM
BY Fred Dodge
TEXT: THE greatest thing is
is not where we are. but
in what direction we are
moving"
Oliver Wendell Holmes.

In tobacco warehouse, thy
men were arguing about religiS
Each claimed his was the
fright" religion and seemd to
prove it by the Scriptures. AS an
elderly negro tenant farmer
drove in with. his tobacco, one
of the men asked him which reli-
gion he thought was the right
one.
The old man looked at the
three men a moment while he
mopped his shining head.
Boss" he said slowly, "Ah dom
rightly know, but ah reckon it's
lax dis. Dey is tree roads alb kin
trabble to dis town. All kin go by
de hill road, or ah kin take de
swamp road or ah kin take de
back road. But when ah gifts yere
de wa'house man dom ask me
what road ah come by. He jes'
say, "Uncle Sam Henry how good
am 20 tobacco"

Many times we know the road
we travel so well that we think
it is the best road for everyone
else. We know so many fine folks
who have travelled it before us
that we are sure everyone will
find the same joy in it. 1t is
where our road leads, what we
bring and how we travel the road
that is important. There may be
other roads to the same goal that
would be as strange to us as our
road is to someone else. It isn't
the road it's the destination,
the merchandise we bring and
how well each of us travels the
road we have chosen.

THE WAYSIDE
PULPIT
BY ED EARNHARDT

When l was young my freedom
was somewhat curtailed. l was
not free to say hello because the
word had too much hell in it. /
could not ride my bicycle, white
a stick, split kindling, or play
hail-over on Sunday. was a
grown man before 1 found that
it was not sin to drink water
out of bottle. 1t was decidedly
sin to drink pop.
When I got older and put on
long britches and suspenders and
began to wear short stockings and
storebought shirts. began to
chew the bit and kick the traces
and jump against the collar. 1t
occurred to me that somebody
had made a religious harness and
had forced me to wear it.
It has been a long time since
then. l have run a schoolhouse a
few years, spent five years in the
United States army and cast a lot
of pearls before swine. Now there
are two observations that are
proper. One is that we ought to
stop manufacturing Sin; and the
other is that we ought to dis
cover what things in themselves
are fundamentally wrong. There
are not but four of them and here
they are: /. Disrespect for the
law. 2. = Misuse of sex. 8. -Ir-
reverence. 4. Dishonesty.

BELHAVEN LIGHT
SOLD FOR
S13,5O0 MONDAY
Miami Dealer Buys Five Die
sci Motors Against Five
Other Bidders

BY waiting a month and max
ing a second effort, the town
Board got high bid of $13,500
Monday night for the five dis
carded diesel motors heretofore
used to generate electricity in
Belhaven. Six bids were present
ed Monday night ranging from
$4,000 to the $13,500 presented
by Paul Jay & Co., of Miami, Fla.
This latter bid was accepted.
Something like a month ago, the
best bid received for the motors
was around $4,000. 1t is reported
that the dealer plans to export
the motors to Cuba where they
will be used in industry, perhaps
in a sugar mill.
The town of Belhaven is now
served with current purchased
from the Virginia Electric &
Power Company for much less
per XVIII than it had been cost
ing the town to manufacture its
current.
The town has recently spent
about $4,000 rebuilding its aged
distribution system, and many
poles and cross arms were re-
placed, larger wires and trans
formers installed.
The Board seemed well pleased
with the current financial status
of the town. 1t doesn't owe any
money of any kind, not even of
bonded indebtedness. All the
bonds are paid off.

RICHNESS AND STRANGNESS
OF ANCIENT DEAD SEA
(Savannah EVENING Press)

Savannah Evening Press
Most waters of Israers Dead
Sea are too salty to sustain any
form of life, but their fabulous
mineral reserves are CONNER
cially valued at more than a
trillion dollars.
The earth's lowest spot and
one of the hottest, the Dead Sea
contains probably two billion
tons of potash, vital to fertilizers,
says the National Geographic
Society. The basin also holds
some % billion tons of magnes-
ium chloride, used in textile and
cement manufacture; $50 million
tons of bromide, essential to med
icine and photography; and IL
billion tons of sodium chloride,
or common salt.
Although only one-fifth the
size of Utah's Great Salt Lake,
the Dead Sea has nearly double
the salt content-26 per cent.
Ocean water has a mere five per
cent salt content. -...H.
The chemical gold mine" is
simple to tap: water is pumped
onto land to evaporate under
fiery sun, and the various dehy-
drafted products are later, separ-
ated and purified. Commercial
extraction was begun in 1880 by
British and American interests.
Evaporation, estimated at from
61s to II feet at the surface of
the Dead Sea annually, is the
sole outlet for six million tons of
water daily flowing into the
basin from the Jordan River and
lesser tributaries. During the hot,
dry season - May through
October - blue-white mists how
er over the water because of the
high rate of moisture evapora-
ton. Temperatures average 100
degrees Fahrenheit in this period.
Salts in the sea originate in the
areas nitrous soil and in the sui
phurous springs which feed its
tributory streams. Asphalt Jumps
that occasionally ooze from the
depths and wash ashore suggest
the possibility of rich oil deposits.
Seven petroleum companies have
been granted concessions by the
Israeli Government.
Dead Sea water is bitter to the
taste and oily to the touch. Bath
ers are left covered with dried
crust of salt. 1t is almost i'm
possible to swim in it: arms and
legs protrude out of the buoyant
water. The seas surface is 1926
feet below sea level, and its deep
est point reaches down another
1900 feet.
Graded between the sandstone
Moab Mountains on the east and
the limestone Judea hills on the
west, the Dead Sea is Al miles
long and 10 miles wide. The
southwestern portion touches Is
raeli territory, but three-fourths
of the shore lies in Jordan.

OF WIVES AND PIPES
By CARLTON MORRIS
editor Gates County Index

editor Gates County Index
Now you take an old pipe.
There you have something a man
can tie to and not be afraid of
getting hurt. An old pipe is like
an old wife in many respects. But
on the other hand there is a ma
teria1 difference between a wife
and a pipe. am speaking with
the voice of authority for while
I have only one old wife, I have
several old pipes. All of them are
a consolation in my old age.
Now you take my old pipe for
instance. While I have been
smoking it all of the daylight
hours for a number of years, I
have never had any protest from
it of any kind. No matter how
badly it is abused, it is still my
old pipe. On the other hand,
wife who is abused will protest
long and loud. A wife will also
protest when she is not abused.
My old pipe is always waiting
when l need it and a wife is the
same way. While my old pipe can
be forgotten, a wife must be re-
membered at all times.
Then there is another similar
ity between pipe and a wife.
AS a rule, no one but the owner
will have an old pipe or an old
wife. Yet the owner can do
nothing without either. An old
pipe is soothing and comfortable
and becomes mellow with age.
A wife is soothing when she is
in good humor and is very COM
Portable to have around, and will
never admit her age.
Now you take an old pipe. 1t
becomes a habit that is hard to
break. A wife becomes a habit
that will break you. Smoking an
Did pipe will blacken your teeth
while an old wife will often
