THE WORLDS MOST WIDELY USED DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
Read Matthew 21:33-39
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of Him that bring-
eth good tidings that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings
of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God
reigneth ! (Isaiah 52:7.)
Advent means a new spirit the dawn of new life in our lives
with the gift of God’s beloved Son, Jesus Christ. It means God has
given us His love and forgiveness, His loving kindness. In Christ,
our peace with God is possible.
TTie source of peace for us lies in our response to Christ. When
God’s spirit controls our lives, we also become at peace with one an
other. Inner peace comes from trusting in God. In divine, love and
in the divine purpose of God we have assurance of the final victory
of righteousness and peace in the world.
In Christ’s spirit we go forth in reverence, justice, and kindness,
giving ourselves and living godly lives. In this way of living lies
the hope of a warless world, a world of peace.
PRAYER
Our Father, we thank Thee for Jeeus Christ. We
know that our happiness and peace are found in Him.
Holp us to be obedient to Thy just and holy will. Let
Thy light shine in us and upon us as families and Chris
tian communities. For our Redeemer's sake. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
In Christ we have life abundant and peace.

Laurens Club Hears
Of County's Prospects
For Development
Laurens, Dec. 9.—Speaking be
fore the Laurens Lions club last
Monday night, James D. Wasson,
a member of the Laurens County
Planning Board, told of the coun
ty’s hopes and prospects in the
industrial development of the
I
state.
Charts were displayed illus
trating the possibilities for in
dustrial growth in the county.
Two other members of the
board, Niles C. Clark of Water
loo. and Tom Plaxiao of Clin
ton, were present and spoke
briefly. The chairman, D. F.
Patterson, of Laurens, and Dr.
W. T. Pace fo Gray Court, other

members of the board, were un
able to be present.
Mr. Wasson divided his speech
into three parts, dealing with
the industries already here,
what new industries expect in
places where they locate, and
what his board is doing.
He said that the planning
board was appreciative of the
value of industries already es
tablished here and would do
nothing which would be inimi
cal to their interests. The object
of their work, he said, was not
to create competition for indus-
trise already established, but to
cooperate with them in every
possible way. In seeking new in
dustries, he said, the planning
board was prepared to offer ev
ery reasonable cooperation in
keeping with sound business
judgment.
He listed, a number of things
which he thought prospective
investors are looking for. The
first thing he said, were towns
of from 5,000 to 25,000 people
with a reasonable supply of la
bor. Such places, he said, should
have such facilities as gas, elec
tricity, good railroads and truck
ing facilities, plenty of water,
favorable state and county tax
es, good police, fire and health
departments, alert, aggressive,
and ke^n business life, intelli
gent labor high school and col
lege graduates, good recreation
facilities, schools and colleges,
moderp stores and adequate
housing facilities. He also said
that a spirit of cooperation, both
on the part of the general pub
lic, labor and industries already
established are important in se
curing new industries. '
It may seem, he said, that the
board has not done very much.
He admitted that to be true, but
said it was partly due to the
short time the board has been
working and the lade of pros
pectus to send prospects. The
board now has had a prospectus
prepared, he said, and hopes to
work more efficiently in the fu
ture. H e mentioned several
stumbling blocks that the board
had been up against but said it
was still hopeful of getting some
industries for this county. “If
we do any good though,” he said,
“we have all got to work togeth
er, including the industries al
ready here."
and 51 more than for the entire
12-month period of 1954.
