(Psalm 27:11) ■ * Prior to studying for the ministry, I was employed by a Chris tian businessman. One one occasion, after I had discussed a cer tain business proposition with him, he said, “I shall take this up with my partner and seek his guidance.” Being unaware that he had a busniess partner, I inquired of another member of the staff. He took me to a small room adjoining my employer’s office. There we found him in prayer. He was discussing my proposition with God, his business partner. The tenth chapter of the Book of Acts records how, guidance through prayer brought together the aposUe Peter and the gentile centuiron Cornelius, thus changing the lives of both. Many of us muddle through life in attempting to live on our own. We take chances even in matters of vital importance. But when we Realize how helpless we are "in directing our lives,'we will seek guidance of God through humility and sincere prayer. PRAYER • Oar heavenly Father, we beseech Thee so to guide us this day that at its close we shall find we have become more like Jesus in our thoughts, words, and acts. Bless - us with Thine indwelling presence. Use us for Thy divine purpose, through Christ our Saviour. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Guidance is always good when it is God’s guidance. Allan H.

Conservation Program Is Being Adjusted ^ Fred S. Stoddard, chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation county committee, said today that the ASC state committee has reviewed the agricultural conservation pro- gram to adjust it in line with local conservation problems and the current agricultural situa tion. Normally,’ under AGP, the maximum federal cost-share for each practice is the rate neces sary, along with a required sub stantial contribution by the farmer or rancher, to obtain the needed performance; usually this does not exceed 50 percent of the cost. Under the 1966 pro gram, however, a higher rate may be approved in situations where the income prospects for the farmer or rancher are clear ly such that he reasonably could not be expected to bear as much as 5 0 percent of the cost of, the practice. The Lau rens ASC county committee will determine farmer eligibility, de pending on local factors and within national guidelines. Committees are authorized to approve practice cost-sharing of up to 80 percent pf the cost for low-income farmers.

Martin Tells Of Telephone Additions In Clinton Section Clinton and Joanna gained some 440 telephones during 1965, from 4,982 phones to 5,422. ‘‘To keep up with the growth here in Clinton, we have worked on a number of service improvement and expansion projects,” D. H. Martin, local manager, said. Southern Bell broke records again with its South Carolina construction program. Some $36.5 was spent in the state to Improve and expand service. ‘‘Last year was an important one for telephone events,” Mar tin said. ‘‘Perhaps the one that will mean the most for telephone customers is the new federal excise tax law passed during 1965. It cut the rate from 10 to 3 per cent as of January 1, 1966, and will reduce by one per cent .each year, until it is gone en tirely.” The first telephone bills carry ing the reduced federal excise tax were mailed to customers Jan. 3, and went to customers In Whitmire, S. C. The reduction will mean an annual saving of $4,131,000 for Southern Bell customers in South Carolina, Martin said. Martin explained that the en tire benefit from the reduction will go to the customer. ‘‘The excise tax is a tax on customers, not on the phone company/’ he explained. “We collect it and pass the money on to the federal government. “We have several new ser vices coming up in 1966,” Mar tin said. “Touch-Tone telephones will be introduced in Clinton. We have a lot to look forward to this year, and we’re proud to be growing along with South Carolina,” he commented.

It is! You bet it is. For the sixth straight year, Pontiac is outselling all but two makes, and already some 244,000 buyers have gjven the '66 Pontiacs and Tempests their own personal car : of-the-year award. And we're on our way to surpassing last year's record sales of over 800,000 cars. Another great thing about it all is that so many Pontiac owners are trading in their present cars to help us get where we are. And that says quite a lot about the ’66 tigers, doesn't it? But enough about us. Le^s talk about you. Have you tried a Wide-Track tiger lately? We’ve got one waiting for you. 1 Come in and take on a tiger!
