It has been the per sistence of spiritual ideals in carnate in the universe and iviihiu the soul of man, that really accounts for our advanc ing civilization and the cullur :il achievements of the human spirit. It is this (hat makes us aware of Truth. Goodness md Beauty, thai lies al the leait of all reality. No me hanistic or m a t e r I a I i s t ic forces can account for the yreat artists, scholars, philo sophers and scientists or for the noble literature and lofty Mhical ideals ol the human race. God is still al work in His world, and He has not ah licated His throne. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. The persistence of spiritual ideals in a rhanjinK world ac "ounls for the greatest moral md religious progress of man kind, open our eyes to the un folding manifestations ot Thy self in Ihe life of Ihe world.

S. C. experiment st tion. Most of these new berries have no names yet. and many of them never will have, as only the best among the thousands of seedlings will be saved by George Waldo, federal small fruits specialist sta tioned here conducting the co operative breeding work. Two of these hybrids have been introduced and are being watched under commercial production this year. These are known as the Pa 'cific and Cascade blackberries, though their growth habits and ! appearance are more like the youngberries. They have the wild blackberry flavor of one parent, however, and are vigorous grow ers, good yieklers, and are rela tively free from leaf spot disease, farmers said. Dozens of new and promising red raspberry hybrids were also i seen, some of which are sure lo be chosen for naming and distribu tion. Before they are releaseifl however, they must pass rigiiT tests for canning, freezing and dessert quality, as well as having good yield and growth character istics. In-. W. S.
