Soil Service I How much fertilizer I will your crop need? Xfou can’t expect to get a high yield on next year’s I crop unless there is enough plant food available in your soil. But guessing how much fertilizer your soil needs to grow that big crop is risky business. You can eliminate thia risk by taking advantage of the free A.A.C. Soil Service. Guided by the size and topography of your field, an A.A.C. fieldman will take an adequate number of borings for a good soil sample. He’ll record a complete and accurate crop history of the field, too. Then the carefully marked •ample will be mailed to the nearest A.A.C. laboratory where trained chemists will analyze it to find out how much available plant food it contains. Tests will also be run to determine soil pH. Results and field history will then be studied carefully by A.A.C. agronomists familiar with farm practices in your area. In a few weeks you'll receive a complete report of ths fertility level of the field, with sound, practical advice on how and when to fertilize and lime to grow a better crop. Recommendations will be made for your particular crop and toil. This report can take the guess out of buying fertilizer. Let A.A.C.

Patriot in Action Lesson for September 29, 1957 THERE is no closed season for patriotism. You might think there was, for there is a rash of patriotic speeches and editorials •long about the fourth of July, and on'Washington’s Birthday and similar occasions. This time of year people seem to be thinking more about the hunting season, and

achool openings, than about our wonderful country. Now, let us admit that patriotic speeches the year around, would be a dreadful bore. Fireworks and oratory every night are not called

for. Nevertheless It is true: there is no closed season for patriotism. There is a daily need for patriots. Coanterfeit Patrlofhn Patriotism is not noise, not speeches. The patriot is not the man who brags about his country the most. Travelers abroad from America know the nuisance type of tourist who is forever complaining, wherever he is, about nearly everything, loudly telling the world that “We have it better in the States.” Such a man is not doing America any good. Hanging out the flag on important days is a good practice, but a man’s patrl-. otism is not to be measured by the regularity of his flag-displays. Furthermore, a true patriot is not one who thinks of his own stock as the true Americans, and all others as not quite It A man like this will think of descendants of earlier immigrants as antiquated, out of touch with life; and the descendants of those immigrants who came later he thinks are “really” Europeans or something, never quite Americans. Wttatfvg W*«w patriots' portraits are to b* found in the Bible; Nehemiah is one of these. He was a governor of Jerusalem, under the Persian Empire, more than a hundred years after Jerusalem’s freedom had been lost Jerusalem had had a string of governors before; but not one of them, or all of them together, accomplished for that city and its people what Nehemiah did in his term of office. He was a true patriot one whose services really benefit his country, one who renders services without asking payment tn return; or if he is a man on salary, as Nehemiah seems to have been, he goes beyond what he is paid to do. Nehemiah never had to be pushed or prodded. He was out in front seeing what had to be done and starting to do it while other men slept Lufi«rshl|i There have been patriots without much power or gift of leadership; but surely a better type of patriot is a man or woman who can stir other people to serve their country too. This Nehemiah is famous for building a wall; but he may never have laid a brick, personally. He did something far more miracu-'i lous than that; for the first time in 140 years, he got the people of Jerusalem hard at work at what they should have been doing long before: getting a wall built around their little city. The people “had a mind to work,” but it was their governor who inspired this ambition in them. The great patriots of every nation’s history,—David, Scipio, Henry V, George Washington, Syngman Rhee, and all the rest, have been men from whom as from a dynamo electric current flowed to vast numbers of their countrymen. Under their leadership, weak men were brave, discouraged men full of hope. Rtligloi Religion, In any nation, Is not like an auxiliary water tank, for the use of the fire department,— something that can be tapped in an emergency and then turned off again when the trouble is over. Religion if it Is worth anything is more important than patriotism. Just as God is more important than any country. Nevertheless, though God refuses to be used as a political ally, as Hitler and others have tried to use him, other things being equal the man with the most vital religion makes the best patriot. For religion is first and last a reliance upon God. as supreme Helper and as final Judge. Nehemiah’s religion comes out in many ways, but it is plain that he was no once-a-week believer. His faith in God was woven into all his actions. He never spent long hours in prayer; but there was no corner of his life 1 shut off from it. meet Thursday at 7:00 p.m. at the parsonage. A welcome aWaits you at the services of the church.

The Lifters And The Leaners Rev. J. R. Meadows The Church is made up of two kinds of people: 'Diose who lift, and those who lean; those who shoulder and share, and those who shift and shirk. The second class of people conceive of the Church as a kind of spiritual club. One must be careful about who is admitted, but one not worry much about dues. Most persons in this class like to imagine themselves 'honorary members” of the Church, having all the privileges with a minimum of responsibility. The first group — those who lift, shoulder and share — are those who know that the Church is in very fact the Body of Christ. They have a great conviction that she is set in the world by God to con-

Itinue the work of Jesus. Christ. I They know that to be a Christian ; is to be a missionary. They are ] intent on developing their own i spiritual lives. They are in the pews each and every Sunday. They i give freely of their time and mon- ,' ey. They work and pray that many fnay be added to the Church daily.
