Taylor of Charles ton has been visiting- her sisters, Bible Comment: True Greatness Is Won by Service And Humility T EARNING to live together is the hardest lesson many of us must learn during the course of our daily lives. This task is not unique. Every group has faced the same problem based on differ* ences in personalities and personal jealousies. Even the disciples suffered from these human frailties. Once, when someone had evidently offended Peter, he went to Jesus asking how many times a brother should offend his brother and be for given. Peter set, what apparently seemed to him to be a reasonable limit, asking: “Until seven times?’* But Jesus-put forgiveness on a much larger basis with His an swer: “Not until seven times, but until seventy times seven.” And it is on this greater plane that for giveness should be considered if there is to be any true forgiveness at all. Thus the disciples were taught. They were extraordinarily fortu nate in having such a teacher who also knew the meaning of great ness. He defined greatness in terms of service, saying: “He that would be greatest among you, let him be the servant of all.” ' To make a deeper impression. He taught them by example, washing their feet and explaining that He was not there to be ministered to, but to minister to others, even to give His life as a ransom for many. “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” He said. Unfortunate ly, this has not yet been adopted as a creed by the world. But the world must acknowledge the true greatness of those who have adopt ed Jesus’ standards as their own. It is men like Father Damieq, St. Francis, Dr. Grenfell, and oth ers who have become the servants of their fellowmen, who are hon ored and revered. They have learned the greatest lesson, that of living with and for others. . Mrs. J. F. Browne and Mrs. L. W. Harmon. Mr. and Mrs. A. J.

Farm Program Wins Approval Clemson—Reaction to the 10- point 1953 agricultural program for South Carolina recently an nounced by the State Agricultural Committee and the Clemson Ex tension Service has been very fav orable. Most newspapers of the state have given generously of their space in carrying the an nouncement, radio stations have featured it in broadcasts, and many commercial organizations and others have spohsored adver tisements endorsing either the en tire program or that portion of the program of special interest to the particular sponsor. The program, which is in out line form, groups brief recom mendations under the 10 headings or points of balanced farming; crops; grassland farming; live stock, dairying, and poultry; pests ^.nd diseases; forestry; market ing; the farm family; rural youth; and public policies. The key note of the program is more ef ficient farming. The sponsoring groups point out that fewer farm ers must produce more food, feed, and fiber for an increasing popu lation by greater production per acre, per animal, and per man. Following the announcement of the program, agricultural work ers, farm organizations, and civic and commercial organizations con cerned with agriculture are con ducting a state-wide educational program to acquaint farm people with details for adapting and ap plying the suggestions given in the outline. In many instances, demonstrations will be given to show the practical application of recommended practices or meth ods. i Publications of the Clemson Ex tension Service and of the South Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station give information on the points included in the program. These publications may be ob tained from offices of county ex tension workers or from the Clem son Publications Department.
