Ccnmilete hanoir-css lies only in living a whole, ? ounded, I _ Bymmetricallife. All s;des oi mmi's nature must receive- due and proportional consideration JMua Christ wag the perfccr man; Jie grew fourfoldlv. "He advanced in wisdom and stature and in faro? with God and man" His was the complete, the happy. the ideal life. : Good heclth and sensible living are very necessary in order that one might be happy and radiatt hope. The most unhappy people in the World are those who ^buse their bodies in dissiation and sin The way of the drunkard, the glut ?-? ton. and the debauchee leads- tc . misery ant' shame. Strong vigorous bodies are the first prereuisites for joyful living. Fifcsh ; air and water, proper food. rest and exercise are essentials of ?" strong healthy bodies ? - The more va man know-, every thing being equal, the nippier he should be. He who is well jnfprifted about men and things and books is better prepared to, live happily than the man who is un-lettered Ignorance if the most mostly thing in the world; it is a powerful hindrance to oiogress and happiness Man is in thq world to think God's thoughts after him, and to walk in the foot-prints of the Eternal One. The univeMse is an university uid man is the eager, the $pt student. To be happy mar. must be free Mental bondace^re stricts man's capacity to live the full orbed i'fe. The aureelled life is not for the sycophant, for the slave and the coward. Religion it> indispensable. The chief end of man is to glorify God and enjuy him forever. The highest happiness that can Come tt man is to kr.ow-jGod and t<: live for him, with him, and in l.'m. God alone is the Truth, the Good, and the Beautiful.

Federal Agencies The present Administration o f >ur national government has prokled a number of agencies whose functions supplement'the long established extension service and vo- | national education activities. ' Among these agencies now available to the farmer pre the Agricultural Adjustment Administration which directs the Agricultural Conj sorvution Program and the Farmy Security Administration, through which loans to farmers under the Pankhead-Joncs Act are made acailahle onrl through which rnvtain? rural housing projects are develapetl and small loans for the purchase of tools and enuinment nrn-l r'ided. The Farm Credit Administra- i :ion also provides loans for farm our chases and through the PrOduc lion Credit Corporation, loans foi mops and ,fertilizer. Through the ( stablishment of Credit Unions, it ( ;ec!ks to promote thrift and com- .. nunity self-help. ' Information concerning these ind other government agencies ire presented to-the farmers thru ompetent representatives.

The eturn of many this year who atended the school last year is inlicative of a realization that the :ffort is worthwhile. We recom- I nend that this farmers' school be :ontinued and expanded. , 9. Rural Leadership This Conference recognizes the jreat need for Negro rural lead2rship. It is felt that the best of leadership is that which emerges from within the group. We recommerfd that rural leaders con :entrate on training members of local groups to map ^hd" execute further recomnlend t^iat rural lead 3r? spend all available time i n such professional improvement as will enable them better to execute a desirable type of guidance to Negro farmers in search of practical farming information. We deplore the vast world expenditure for implements nf war . and other deadly means of de? struction.
