Words Of Inspiration
James Medford
Cedar Hill Church of Chris!
We need to put God in His place! Does this
statement startle you? Perhaps to some it. may seem
to be a bit irreverent. But let me assure vou that
this is written with no thought of irreverence but
rather to state the greatest need of our world today.
Generally speaking, man is weak and frail; yet
nevertheless he possesses some great powers.
He has the power to change the course of nature
through prayer to God. He has the power to effect,
the salvation or condemnation of those about him,
and he even possesses the power to drive God out
of his life, or bring Him in. And he, by His own
choices, ranks God in importance in his life where
ever he wants Him.
When the children of Israel stopped at Mt. Sinai
for Moses to ascend to the peak of the mountain to
receive the Ten Commandments from God, he was
gone too long to suit the people. With Aaron, Moses’
brother, in the lead, the people constructed and
erected before their eyes a golden calf. Therefore,
God temporarily lost His place among the Israelites
to a lifeless idol of gold.
How like these folk are we today! Some will let
different things crowd Gkd out of His place. The
good housewife sometimes lets company or the care
of the house take her from the Sunday worship in
which God should be praised. The good business
man will sometimes forget his greater obligation to
his Maker and permit duties to interfere with his ser
vice to his God. When this is so, God is robbed of
His place. It is then that He needs to be put in His
place. He needs to be first in all things.
Mr. H. J. Heinz, well known distributor of food.s
had an interesting motto on his desk that he tried to
live by closely. It had three short lines reading
' God first, Me second, and pickles third.”
When God is put in His place, He is put first. The
first and greatest commandment is to, 'love Him
with all our heart, soul and mind.” (Matt. 22 37)
The first day of the week is the Lord’s Day (Rev.
1:10) and is designated by His word as a day of spe-
cial worship. ( Acts 20 7 and I Cor. 16:2) Beginning
with the first of the new year, may we encourage all
to remember the Lord’s Day and that each of us has
the obligation of putting Him in His proper place.

Local Woman Employed
By Gifford-Hill As ’Mix-Man’
School
Mrs. Rosamond Long.
325 Short Street, holds
down a" man size job at
the Gifford-Hill Cement
plant in Midlothian.
She is a mix man...
er...woman for the com-
pany.
In the past, all of the
mix men have been men,
but no more. Rosamond
Long, a Gifford Hiller
for almost six years,
was getting a little
bored with herself. She
had been receptionist at
the cement plant for a-
while and was doing the
same old things at
home,
The next thing she
knew, the mix man was
promoted to the console
this made an opening in
the lab, Roz pondered
the possibilities for a
while then she applied
for the position.
Ken FIar.hart, plant
manager was a little
surprised at first but
reviewed her application
and past record with
Gifford Hill. It turned
out t.jial Roz was just as
qualified and had more
service time with Gif
ford Mill than the other
applicants. She got the
job.
Just what changes in
the job had to be made
for Roz? Absolutely
none” says O'Neil Ba-
ber chief chemist She
puts on her hard hat
safety glasses and hard
toe shoes and gets all
of her own samples from
the plant.”
Now , 1 wou 1 d com-
pare this job to house-
keeping. cooking and
washing dishes, all day.
The only difference is
that you don't eat what
you cook—you just throw
it out.' ‘ She sa id.
Roz’s Work is very
important to the opera-
tion of the 3 million ba
rre 1 cement plant. Dur-
ing her shift, she must
take samples from three
critical points in the
plant and run tests on
them. The results are
then passed on to the
console operator. The
operator is told of any
adjustments to make.
She is responsible
for the quality control
of the raw and finished
product during her shift.
Roz has been in the
lab since June, 1971.
I wouldn’t change a
.thing. she tells us,
‘‘All of the fellows have
been just great helping
me to get started I love
them all,”
She did have some
adjustments to make,
however. ‘One night af-
ter the midnight shift, I
left the building to
punch out. Right there
stretched out across the
sidewalk was a rattle-
snake. It was right at
the corner where I had
to pass.
‘‘I stood there, very
quietly, and watched
him while someone went
to get a hoe.” Did she
look out the next night?
‘‘Would you believe that
I look out every night?”
The biggest problem
was the physical adjust-
ment. “I used to sit
down much of the time
when I was a reception- !
ist— now, I am on my
feet most of the day.
At first, every part of
my body rebelled, but
now there is no pro-
blem,
Also, I had trouble
sleeping during the day
and my telephone would
not cooperate. But, I'm
used to that now,"
Roz has one son,
Toby, and one daughter.
Penny living in Waco,
Flow is it working
out having a woman in a
man’s job? Earhart says
that Roz is the best
man... er ...woman that
he ever had for mix man
...that is mix woman.
Sort of confusing and
strange to say, but it is
working just fine,’’
Mrs. Long was for-
merly employed by the
Cedar Hill Schools as
secretary to Dr. Paul
Brooks.
