A BISHOP LOOKS AT LIFE
By Everett H. Jones, Bishop
of the Episcopal Diocese of West
Texas.
Where To Begin
The President of France, Gen-
eral De Gaulle, recently made
this wise observation: “We may
well go to the moon, but that’s
not very far. The greatest dis-
tance we have to cover still lies
within us.”
Another great Frenchman
named Maritain has said, “The
springs of history must be puri-
fied within a man’s own soul.”
A small boy once found a mar-
igold and looked at it wide-eyed
with wonder. “Why is it,” he
asked me, “that when I open a
marigold and it dies, but if God
does it it’s so beautiful.” Before
I could muster a reply, he ex-
claimed: “I know! It’s because
God always works from the in-
side.”
No thoughtful person can be
and purposes and goals. The big
gest thing 5 can do is to contrib-
ute one new life, one life in wh-
ich God has created a pure heart
and a right spirit.
The place to begin is inside a
man’s heart and soul; perhaps
my witness and example will
help to create a new kind of life
in another person, and so it will
spread from one loving heart to
another. Is not this what Jesus
meant when He said: “The King-
dom of God is within you.”
St. Luke 17:21
Anyone wishing to donate
scrap iron to the Senior Class,
please contact any senior or call
208, 235 or 132-W. The scrap
iron will be picked up' by the
seniors after they have been
contacted. 2tc
VISIT IN WACO
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Forde went
x-iw uiv/ugii i/jl i*j. pciouu vcvxx uv to Waco on Thanksgiving to
very happy about the conditionj visit their daughter and family,
of our world today. Any right-1 Major and Mrs. R. L. Smith,
thinking person will want to con- Four of the grandchildren, Sha-
tribute something to make the
world better; he will want to
throw his weight on the side of
peace and brotherhood.
But the question he asks is
this: “How can I,- as a single
small individual, make any dif-
ference ? The problems are so big
and I am so little. What can I do
in the face of the gigantic power
of nuclear bombs and whirling
missies ?”
In the end we cannot have a
new kind of world until we have
new individuals. The new world
must be built on new motives
ron, Jim, Deborah and Rebecca
returned with them to spend a
few days. On Su nday the child-
rens parents came down and
took them home.
Mr. and Mrs. Belva Landrum
of San Antonio were weekend
guests of the Fordes.
On Friday the Fordes are go-
ing to Dallas for the weekend to
visit their daughter and family,
Mr. and Mrs. John Carter and
Johnny.

Did You Know
During the past twenty years
there has been several changes;
32 percent more com produced
using 15 million less acres; 200
million more bushels of wheat
using only four-fifths as many
acres; about the same amount
of cotton using half as much
land. In livestock, dairy cows
average two-thirds of a ton
more milk, hens lay three eggs
for every two laid by their pre-
decessors, 99 million cattle and
horses are supported by the
same pastures and rangelands
that supported 83 million head
twenty years ago. Insummary,
we are producing 40 percent
more on the same farm ocreage
we had in 1939.
Why has this happened and
what has caused it? This is a
question that may enter your
mind. It has been made possible
through improved breeding of
livestock and crops, fertilization
irrigation, better management
and soil, water and plant con-
servation.
It is easy to see acreage for
farm use is decreasing and will
continue to decrease . At the
same time, our population is in-
creasing and will continue to in-
crease. This means we must con-
tinue to produce 40 percent more
in the next twenty years on still
fewer acres. Can we do it? One
thing for sure, we do know we
must protect our national re-
sources — Our Soil if this is to
continue.
Herbert Boeraer of three
miles northeast of Comfort has
a field of Madrid clover and oats
that is up to a good stand.
Boerne plans to plant an ad-
ditional acreage to these crops
next spring.
* * * * *
Gerald Herbst, northeast of
Comfort, has two fields of Hu-
bam clover and oats, which were
planted last fall. Herbst finds
that this furnishes good graz-
ing for his dairy herd.
* * * * *
Willard Dierks of east of
Bergheim, is a strong believer in
the use of peas as a cover and
soil building crop.
He now has a field of Winter
Peas which were planted in the
same row as were his summer
peas this past summer.
* * * * *
Harold Dierks also of east of
Bergheim has 22 acres of winter
peas.

Winter time is a good time to
get that cross fence that you
have wanted to build. Sub-divide
a large pasture now and it will
be easy to rest part of it next
spring. Rotation of livestock so
pastures can be rested is very
important for good grass recov-
ery, parasite control, and re-
duced labor costs.

New Stamp

servation commemorative four

In order to lighten his load on
an inspection trip to Boerne,
Santa Claus left some “things”'
