An official State Health De-
partment citation for outstand-
ig proficiency in public utility
work has been awarded to H. T.
Phillips, operations specialist with
the Holliday city water depart-
ment.
The document is signed by the
state health commissioner and
authorities of the Texas Water
and Sewage Works Association.
It signifies that the holder has
completed a prescribed amount
of actual work experience and
long hours of special study on
modern methods of plant man-
agement.
Under the State Health De-
partments operator certification
program, utility plant personnel
are carefully examined on their
technical skill and an under-
standing of their work’s impor-
tance to community health. Each
must pass a stiff written exam-
ination to qualify for certifica-
tion.
, Phillips qualified in all phases.
Sponsors of the certification pro-
gram praised him as a “man of
high technical competence.”
In addition to work experience
examination, candidates for cer-
Japan Studied By
Faith Baptist WMS
Partners for Progress in Japan
was topic for the missionary pro-
gram of Faith Memorial Baptist
WMS, last week, as they met at
the church.
The call to worship was given
by Mmes. J. W. Sturgeon and G.
H. Keener. Mrs. Sturgeon then
presented Mrs. Ross Davis, who
acted as interviewer; Mrs. L. N.
Barton, who represented a Jap-
anese leader; and Mrs. Charles
McCurrin, who represented a
Southern Baptist missionary to
Japan, home on furlough.
A panel discussion, by the
three ladies, brought out that
Japanese people are rapidly
breaking with old traditions. The
young pople enjoy wearing west-
ern clothes, and housewives
boast of their automatic rice-
cookers. By 1970. leaders predict,
; that Japanese living standards
will compare with those in
Europe.
Christianity is claimed by less
than one percent of the 94 mil-
lion Japanese. Southern Baptists
have 134 missionaries working
in Japan today.
The Japanese people are very
polite, very pleasant, and very
energetic, it was also brought
out. The people are also very
eager to learn and most of the
people are literate—able to read
and write.
A brief business meeting con-
ducted by the president, Mrs.
Sturgeon, preceded the program.
Reports were heard from youth
groups and standing chairmen.I
tification earn points by attend-
and successful passage of an
ing annual state and regional
short schools which deal with the
technical details of public utility
operation.
Sponsored by the state health
agency, the engineering extension
service of Texas A&M Univer-
sity, and the Texas Water and
Sewage Works Association, the
short courses have earned an
international reputation as a
method of training water and
waste water plant personnel in
public health protection through
proper plant operation.
