A highlight of the day was the presentation of a silver pitcher to Laumas Bascom Templeton, Jr., and his wife, Mrs. Eula Waldrep Templeton, in appreciation of the Templeton Family History which Mr. Templeton had compiled and published after 25 years of stud ious work with the assistance of Mrs. Templeton. The presentation was made by Joseph Bee Temple ton of Clinton who spoke of the tremendous amount of work ihat had gone into the publication. Mr. Templeton made a brief re sponse and gave recognition also to his daughter, Mary Ellis Tem pleton Simpson, who typed the manuscript and otherwise assisted in assembling the material. The “Templeton Family History” is a 155-page volume with a hard bound cover showing the Tem pleton coat-of-arms. A picture of the author, Laumas Bascom Tem pleton, Jr., is carried as a front piece. From then on the book is a documented record of Temple tons from the earliest five, David, James, John, Robert, Martha and Agnes, all of whose records ex cept John, date from land grants made ,bv the Secretary of State from 1775 to 1793. Robert and John migrated to Ohio in 1302 and subsequently on to Indiana with their families in 1804. Records on the two mikrants were reported as meagre, most of the descendants listed being those of David, John, Martha and Agnes. The records show that Temple tons fought in all the wars of the nation from the Revolution through both World Wars and that in the Civil war there were Templetons in both the Confederate and Fed eral • armies. Many others have been prominent as public officials, lawyers, churchmen, educators and in other walks of life. After a period of fellowship and a picnic dinner on the grounds the day’s program and business meeting were held in the church where the Rev. Floyd Hellams, the church pastor, offered prayer. A beautiful floral arrangement in bemory of Robert Scott Temple ton had been placed in the church by two of hi grandchildren, Mrs. Mary Templeton Ramage and Mrs. Mary Grace Madden Owens. A memory of Robert Scott Temple- bers who had died during the year was held after the business meet ing. Officers for the next two years were elected as follows: Mrs. 1 Al ma Templeton Wham, Laurens, president: David Samuel Temple ton, Clinton, vice-president; i and Clisby Templeton, Joanna, secre tary-treasurer. the graded books.

"The co-operative USDA - land grant college system is the tradi tional and logical means of doing this job. But if this system is to meet the growing demands of mod ern agriculture, the system itself must grow.” The secretary said one thing that , is needed is an expanded farm advisory service in each county ’’that will work directly with the farm people, helping them to take unrelated research findings and fit them together so that they will work profitably on a particular farm.” Basic research, Benson said, has been the foundation of all major advances in agriculture. “If we are to look forward to continuing progress, it is necessary to provide more adequately for research on those fundamental sciences upon which all of agricul ture rests. “This is the source of new prin ciples for the further improvement of our soils, plants and livesotek.” Benson said more research was needed on how to preserve the farm-fresh quality and nutritive value of products on their way to consumers. “Millions of tons of ariculture products are left on the farm and in marketing channels as waste,” he went on. “We must find econ omical use for more of this ma terial.

Mitchell, chairman of the Promotion Committee for the Cooperative Program and Stewardship of the Reedy River association, the Baptist churches of the association are making plans for the observance of Stewardship Week, October 18-25. At this time every Baptist church is being urged -to observe Steward ship Week with the teaching of prepared stewardship books and preaching on stewardship and mis sionary themes. The associational leaders and churches are working cooperatively in enlisting the churches and securing teachers for 5A in !i it Over! A few weeks ago the attention of most Americans was cen- ( tered on one of the most out standing examples of National loyalty our generation has ever known. A Rumanian father, re cently naturalized as an American citizen, refused to become a spy for the Communist government in his native country in order to save his two sons remaining there. Of count, the hearts of everyone went out to him as he and his wife faced that tragic decision—whether to forsake his newly acquired citi zenship and help his children in Rumania, or to remain loyal to America and bring possible harm to them. For him to have decided in favor of his sons would have been no less than that expected of any parent, yet we can all draw • lesson of sacrificial loyalty from his ultimate decision. Think of it. A man, whe had known the blessings of liberty and democracy in America for only a few years, was willing to give up his sons as a price of loyalty to this country. Those of us who have long enjoyed citizenship in this land of freedom should be inspired by this story as we are made more conscious of the need of unwaver ing loyalty during this period of world conflict.
