WORLD S MOST WIDELY USED DEVOTIONAL GUIDE Read Matthew 6:13-21 A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vine yard; and he. came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. (Luke 13:6) . a One winter day I trudged through the woods in central Florida. I was tired*and thirsty. Then, suddenly, like a desert oasis, a citrus tree loaded with oranges appeared in a small clearing. It was not a grove. It was simply one tree standing alone. The fruit, however, was a disappointment. Every orange I cut was pithy, tasteless, and without juice. That tree had not been cared for. No one had pruned its branches. Fer tilizers had not been added to the soil. All alone, the tree had done what it could, but that was not enough. So it is with life. Without God’s guidance, without such spiritual helps as prayer. Bible reading, and church at tendance, our lives cannot bear the kind of fruit God cre ated us to produce. » Our hearts must be pruned of sin, nurtured in God’s love, and trained in doing His will. Otherwise, we may ap pear beautiful on the outside but within be -like the citrus tree — producing fruit that is tasteless and unhelpful to our fellowman. ^ X PRAYER Father, teach us how to use our lives for Thee. Help us to prune away all selfishness in order that we may produce fruit to help others along life’s journey. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

MAIN ST. CLINTON, S. C. TELEPHONE 833-0040 How Many Items In Your Budget Have Gone Down DOWN Regularly Over The Years? » Think about it. Not many, are there? Rut consider your Long Distance telephone dol- lar. Back in 1915 a three-minute station-to-sta- f tion call from San Francisco to New York was $20.70. Today you can rf\ake the same call for $1.00 if you take advantage of Iqw night and Sunday rates. That's only a fraction of the 1915 cost and much less than the cost would have been if your telephone rates had increased in proportion with most other items over the past fifty years. EVER STOP TO THINK how useless just one telephone would be? You could use it for a pa perweight, maybe, but that’s about all. There’d be nobody to call and nobody could call you. It’s the many minions of other phones, all over the country, that makes yours valuable to you.; SOUTH AFRICAN TELEPHONE REPAIRMEN HAVE A REALLY GIGANTIC PROBLEM—ele phants. The animals have discovered that tele phone poles are^ marvelous back-scratchers, and they’re causing static by rubbing against the wires. Itchy elephants are a problem we don’t have to cope with in Clinton. But we do consider any problem with your phope service a big- one. That’s why we try to prevent trouble before it starts by keeping a close check on telephone ser vice.
