ON THE FARM FRONT
Only the farmer seems to really
understand how critical the food sit
uation is and that is why he feels he
is doing the patriotic thing when he
takes a fighting stand through his
organizations, on the vital question
of farm labor, supplies, prices and
production. It is part of the big job
of winning the war and he knows it.
Not only the farmers but the whole
nation may thank God for the farm
organizations, when this war is over.
ty, state and Federal governments
also economize; that frills and furbe
lows in government are eliminated
for the duration, and for a long per
iod thereafter.
Congress couid ease the situation
for the taxpayer by passage of the
Ruml, pay-as-you-go tax collection
plan.
WHO IS THE GOVERNMENT?
SOME DIFFERENCE
It is one thing for government to
broaden individual opportunity and
provide a maximum of care for the
needy. It is quite a different thing
to build up government to where it
dictates to the individual in the com
monest affairs of life. The first
type of government is what our boys
ar e fighting to preserve. The sec
ond type is what they think they are
fighting to prevent coming to Ameri-
START SAVING
There is no longer any way of
loading the tax bill “onto the other
fellow.” It is now in the lap of
every family in the land. Taxes
come ahead of all family bills. The
American family will have to learn
to economize as never (before.
A single person with an income of
$100 a month will pay the Federal
government approximately $175 in
1943, and this does not incHWe any
state income tax, property tax or ex
cise t"xes. A single person earning
$15 a week, with no dependents, will
pay some $56 Federal* taxes, not
counting other taxes.
We will have to go without a lot
of things hereafter to accumulate tax
money. As we scrimp to meet our
tax obligations, we will take increas
ing interest in seeing that city.coun-
This country is face to face with
the question of who rules the desti
nies of the American people. Have
we a government of the people, by
the people and for the people, or have
we a government of powerful cliques,
by groups and for vote control?
The United Mine Workers of
America, through John L. Lewis, the
president, has issued an ultimatum to
induct into his union all supervisory
officials of the nation’s coal mines.
There are some 60,000 of these men
who occupy positions as mine fore
men, assistant mine foremen, tripple
foremen, etc. They run the mines
under the supervision of the mine
management. The official announce
ment ordering these men to join the
union by March 31, also orders them
to pay $10 iniation fee and $18 a year
dues.
If the United Mine Workers and its
officers can bake over the manage
ment of coal mines in this maner and,
in effect, oust the owners and run
the mines as they choose, the same
thing will shortly hapen to all in
dustry. It is frightening to think of
an organization so powerful that it
can calmly tell 60,000 individuals to
join that organization, pay a $10 in-
iation fee and $1.50 a month—$1,-
680,000 the first year—or else. It is
still more frightening to think that
so far there is no government con-
ti*l sufficiently strong to protect an
individual in his right to his job if
he fails to odn and pay dues as di
rected.
And tnis brings up the pertinent
question—Who is the government?
What has become of the guarantee of
life, liberty and pursuit of happiness,
in our country?
Apparently, the first step to cor
rect this iniquitous situation is foi
Congress to re vise our laws, and con
trol the rights of powerful organiza
tions to coerce men at will. It is no
attack on the labor union movement
to make it subservient to govern
ment, and to protect the right of an
individual in his job, against coer
cion from whatever source.
SPLENDID CONTRIBUTION REC
OGNIZED
The Office of Price Administration
has issued a public statement thank
ing th e thousands of newspapers in
the United States for the millions of
dollars worth of space they donated
to the government in repeated publi
cation of the voluminous data regard
ing War Ration Book No. 2. This
was an incalculable saving to the
government in money and man hours,
and a great convenience to the pub
lic.
EFFECTIVE PASTORAL COUN
SELING
MEAL IN A PILL—ADD WATER
Pittsburgh, March 13—You can get
a meal in a pill at last. But not in
the way expected. You don’t eat the
pill. You drop it into a dish of hot
water a nd it expands into a meal.
The pill is a small brick of com
pressed foods, squeezed down under
pressures of 250 to 2,500 pounds a
square inch.
War, looking for more and more
in less cargo space, is the reason.
The experimenting is going on like
wildfire on a national scale, and al
ready it appears likely that some
foods, compressed into the size and
form of cigarette cases, will find a
permanent post-war market because
of convenience and palatability.
One of the places working on
these new food preparations is the
Mellon institute here. The work is
in charge of Dr. George E. Helz,
who holds the varieties fellowship,
supported by the Heinz company.
The raw materials in all cases
are dehydrated foods. As far as
experiments show to date, the com
pressed foods are just as good as
the dehydrated forms. No deterio
ration or other damage ha® been
found due to compression. Whatever
flavors and qualities can be proc
essed into dehydrated foods, appar
ently will remain after compres
sion. ,
The varieties which may be de
hydrated and compressed cover
scores of articles and dishes. Eggs,
dried milk, meats, fruits and vege
tables all can be dehydrated and
colnpressed.
With the coming of warm
weather you will want
plenty of
SHIRTS
Warm weather calls for shirts—plenty of them, and
while they are not rationed yet, we do not know
how soon they may be—certainly the trend is toward
the rationing of everything. So, the wiise thing to do
is to get your shirts while you can, and while you
may select from many styles and fabrics.
Spring Suits
In spite of restrictions on woolens we are able to
show this Spring a very pleasing assortment of Suits
for Men and youngsters. In addition to a nice show
ing of the Hart, Schaffner & Marx line, we have fine
Suits in other makes with prices ranging from $22.50

‘Styles of Today With a Touch of Tomorrow”
Newberry
By PAUL STEWART
Pastor First Baptist Church
Pelzer, S. C.
The work of the pastor is not only
to preach sermons and see that the
organizations of the church function
properly. One of his greatest oppor
tunities to be of real service to his
people, and others, is to help them in
their individual lives. A medical
doctor can not treat humanity En
MASSE. He deals with specific
needs of individuals. So must the
pastor who deals with souls. The
conditions and needs vary.
In pastoral counseling we deal with
individuals ^instead of the group. The
procedure is private, confidential,
personal, and intimate. It is sup-
olementary to preaching and teach
ing. Effective teaching and preach
ing result in consultation for addi
tional and specific help.
Effective personal work is good
psychology. People are human. They
like personal attention, especially if
they are sick or in trouble. Probably
one of the greatest needs of our
churches is not for more outstanding
preachers, but better pastors. Church
es are made up of individuals, and are
just as good, but no better, as the
lives of its members. Abnormal
members can not build, or grow,
strong and flourishing churches. In
one sense of the word a wise and ef
fective pastor is a physician of souls,
under the Great Physician.
For a pastor to be a good counse
lor he must have a good personality,
and be mentally and physically ma
tured, as well as spiritually develop
ed. Only the inspired can inspire
others. A “blue” preacher can not
spread cheer.
The wise pastor will not set him
self up as a “Know-it-all” reformer.
He must show good will and under
standing, willing to guide rather than
drive. Personal interest, good cheer
and sympathy will go a long way in
gaining respect and confidence, which
are essential in rendering a helpful
ministry.
The effective pasrtor is ethical in
all of his work. He does not step in
another’s shoes, but cooperates with
institutions, doctors, nurses and oth
ers who are responsible for the indi
vidual’s mental and physical wel
fare. His work is supplementary. His
work is to stimulate and aid rehabili
tation or growth of personality, as
a confessor, instructor, and guide,
the experience between the indivi
dual and the pastor is co-operative.
With love, patience and a desire to
help, the technique of counseling may
be acquired by study, observation,
and practice.
The one who seeks out the pastor’s
help is generally more co-operative.
The way to get people to do this is to
show interest and be prepared to help.
There are some in need but are un
able to visit the .pastor’s study. He
should go to them. There are some
who are not frank enough to state
the plain truths about their cases
The pasor should be able to find out
the real trouble, or need by keep ob
servation and wise questions. The
pastor’s visit should not only be to
add to church attendance but to help
people in their individual lives. His
visits a r e to be a blessing to the
homes that he enters.
The more help a pastor renders to
individuals the more he will be sought
for, within his own church and with
out. In helping these outside indivi
duals the pastor is to be ethical.
For various reasons some young
people do not consult their own par
ents or their pastors, wishing to
keep the interview a secret. The
wise counselor will consent to serve
them on their own terms of neutrali
ty and anomity.
As to where the interview should
take place: Provide just as favorable
place as possible. Wisdom and dis-
cression should be used by all means
in all cases.
The pastor should be a good listen
er for some will want to “unload”
their burdens. It is not advice they
desire, but someone who will listen
to them. Others will come for help.
A friendly reception and a “ready
ear” will give new thought, inspira
tion, and help to them.
In dealing with some cases, such
as the timid, fearful, and reticent,
the pastor may have to wisely and
tactfully ask questions, whose ans
wers will give a clue to the real prob
lem. Some cases will be too bard
and should be refered to a clinical
psychologist or specialist.
Statements by the consulant should
be regarded but not always be ac
cepted as a real cause of some trou
ble, or disorder. Some of the young
people should be encouraged to write
letters, stating their cases. They

will write many things that t'/.ey will
not say. In writing they can more
clearly state _their cases in many re
spects.
Wise counseling seeks to correct
disability rather than alleviate symp-
tons. It must seek to discover and
eliminate the underlying causes of
distress. Guidance in personal re
construction is far better than tem
porary material aid.
It is not with the power of the
average pastor to trace personality
defects and social misbehavior. A
qualified psychologist, or competent
physician, should be secured.
As a counselor a pastor should:
1. Be patient.
2. Try to sympathetically under
stand.
3. Treat matter confidential.
4. Be ethical.
5. Do not speak of limitations or
disabilities of others, or own.
The pastor should be acquainted
with a wide selection of suitable
books that he might be able to rec
ommend a suitable one to his consul
tant. In addition to the Bible there
are many that will help.
The pastor, the psychologist, and
the social worker can work hand in
hand for the best advantage of many
cases that can not be handled alone.
In hospitals many cases not only
need the services of the doctors and
nurses but also the help of a wise,
trained, experienced and spiritual
Gospel minister. All should work to
gether for the common good of the
patient.
A good pastor will seek to be a wise
and effective counselor. The bless
ings of such a service only eternity
will reveal. The rewards will be rich
dividends in this world and an abun-
dent compensation in the world to
come. The pastor’s prayer should be:
“Lord, bless me that I may be a
blessings to others.”’

physician, no longer takes insulin,
although she formerly took daily
doses, and she believes her steady
use of soybean flour is the cause.
Soybean flour was recommended to
her by a former resident of South
America in 1940.
It was hard to find the flour then,
Mrs. Rigby recalls, but she found it
in a health food shop in Savannah
and began baking muffins with her
first five pounds. She liked the
nutty flavor of the muffins and ar
ranged t oget the whole bean flour
which, ahe believes, contains more
of the elements valuable in nutri
tion.
After her own improvement in
by launched a campaign to tell other
victims of the same disease about
her diet. She worked first in this
state and prepared copies o.' -her diet
and a letter telling of her cure.
She sent the material to doctors,
nurses, nutrition workers, and
school teachers seeking their sup
port in spreading the information- on
the value of the soybean.
In May, 1942, -the magazine Path
finder, carried a short item about
Mrs. Rigby, her use of the flour and
its help in her fight against dia
betes.
