JUST AS | AM
Joseph F. Albright

a wonderful family was sit
ting all alone on a bench in a
park in Washington, D. C. 1t
was quite late and the park was
virtually deserted. Tears were
streaming down his handsome
face, tears of abject grief re-
flecting the utter agony he was
experiencing as the result of a
letter he had received that day.
The message was from a woman
he had learned to love beyond
all understanding. She had
bluntly and cruelty informed
him that their romance was at
an end, and that she never wish
ed to see him again.
The shock had brought his
world crashing down all about
him. Writhing with despair, he
sat completely convinced that
he was all alone in his pit of
misery, and that there was no
place to go no haven in
which to escape his ultimate de-
struction.
Slowly through his despera-
tion he became aware that a
choir was singing in a church
nearby, The song was being
rendered with a soul stirring
magnificence. 1t was the never
to-be-forgotten paean of faith
and hope, "Just AS | AM. Like
the assuaging balm of cool wat
er over a fevered body, the
singing steadily washed away
his grief with the deathless
knowledge that there is AL
WAYS some place to go in the
hour of despair to the
throne of God. 1t was clearly
enuciated by His Only Begot-
ten Son, who said, "Come unto
Me, all We that are weary and
heavy laden, and | will give
you rest" From that moment
on he never looked back, and
he was blessed with happiness
and the success that awaits
those who walk with faith and
righteousness.
"Just as | am, without
one plea
But that Thy blood was
shed for me
And that Thou bidst me
come to Thee
0 Lamb of God, | come,
| come"
All about US in these days of
unending crises, no matter in
what direction we turn, we are
confronted with events that
sorely try our peace of mind.
Even Nature itself vents its
warth upon us with rampaging
eruptions. Our day by day rela-
tionships are constantly strain
ed with discord, disruption and
violence. Lurking in the sha-
dows, like some foul beast of
relentless prey, are the enemies
of our great country whose
avowed objective is the COM
plete destruction of everything
we hold sacred.
AS to our internal stresses,
bayonets and bombs will mend
nothing. Violence will only be-
get violence. Hatred will only
breed more hatred. In our de-
mand for our rights, that in
sistence will never accomplish
its goal if it is predicated upon
the unjust intrusion upon the
"rights" of other Americans.
"Do unto others as We would
have them unto you do" in not
some unctious, puerile cliche; it
is the word of God.

Some Wheat Program
Provisions Are In Effect

In response to questions rails
ed since the wheat quota ref
erendum on May 81, Mrs. J..
Viola Herak, chairman of the
Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation State committee,
has reviewed certain wheat
program provisions still in eff
feet under existing law.
For 1864, she explained, leg
islation provides that price
support at so percent of par
ity-about $1.25 per bushel, on
the average-wil be available
to producers who plant within
the acreage allotments which
were established before the ref
erendum. There will be no quo
ia penalties for planting in ex-
cess of 1864 acreage allotments.
However, overplanting the 1864
allotments would reduce the
acreage history credit for future
allotmentS.
Farmers who have Con-
servation Reserve con-
tracts agreed 10 plant with
in the larger of the farm
acreage allotment or Is
acres. This means that the
1864 Conservation Reserve
payment for the farm is
dependent on planting
within this acreage.

Ground Water Law passed by
the 1861 Legislature.
Form No. Declaration of
Vested Ground Water Rights"

this form must he recorded be-
fore January 1, 1864, in order

upon the owner the burden of

said that letters are being sent

quotas in 1862 or previous
years will be subject to the
original penalty provisions un-
til July 1, 1864. After that date,
stored excess wheat may be re-

his office Wednesday evening,
where Arthur Dotson was be-
ing held after being picked up
on Wreckless driving charge.

gave chase. The car sped north,
crossed highway 16 without
stopping and continued on the
cemetery road, later turning off
onto property leased by Sun

Schmidt said that at times he
was driving 90 miles per hour,
to keep the car in sight. He
radioed the sheriff's office for
help and Cornelia and Deputy
Sheriff Harold GrinoldS re-
sponded. The officers met an
other youth, Maurice Sather, on
Sun Oil property about 200
yards from the Dotson car, and
took him into custody, and
