Why Is Gold Getting So Important?
January 05, 2016
Gold has been known and used freely in the oldest of civilizations. Gold is named very early in the Bible. Man since the beginning of time has valued gold because of its quality and luster. Gold is very beautiful to many people. Its structure never rusts or dissolves away. Gold is the only metal unharmed by fire. Gold is very valuable because of its scarcity. Gold also is the most precious of all the metals known with silver coming second. Gold was used as battle gear in many nations of the old testament of the Bible especially the helmet wore on the head. Of the 103 elements now known to man 78 are metals. Of these only gold, silver, iron, copper, lead and tin were known to the ancients. A metal is an element with a metallic luster, a good conductor of heat and electricity. Silver was used with gold because of its beauty also. Gold was mined out west in our country and eventually went into coins and gold bars. Gold is mentioned at the very end of the Bible in Revelation 21:15, 18, 21. This precious metal will be used in the Holy City in heaven. The Ark of the Covenant is made with the precious metal gold. Gold jewelry was very well liked and worn mostly by the rich. Even today gold jewelry bracelets, rings, earrings are very popular. In the early years of our country gold coins were used. With our national debt at 17 trillion and rising every day gold is gaining popularity. Gold is now around $1,325.00 per ounce and predicted to rise in the future to $5,000.00 per ounce. What is happening to the price of gold? What is the future holding for our country America? Gold has always backed our currency in Fort Knox in Kentucky. Our currency is sliding in the world market. Our dollar is not worth what is used to be in the world market. Folks pray for our country for things are chinging so fast it’s difficult to keep up with. The American dollar has long been the reserve currency of the world, the European countries have come out with their currency the Euros. The Euro is having a severe negative impact on the American economy. What looms in the future has us all wondering. Pray folks for our economy in the future and that America will be strong and regain our prestige. We need the world to again look up to us not down on us.

Community Obituaries
Clarence P. Rogers (Sneak), age 88, died December 28, 2015 at home. He was born in Arcadia to parents Margaret and Claude Rogers, now deceased. He graduated from DeSoto High School in 1945 and entered US Merchant Marines because he was too young to join the Navy. After Merchant Marine service, he joined the Navy and served 2 years. He was part owner of San Carlos Marina on Fort Myers Beach until Hurricane Donna, after which the marina was sold. He worked in real estate with Thomas Baker, both father and son, and in later life partnered with Dan Kreinbrink at Florida Southern Investment Corporation. He was an avid boater and fisherman and worked in his younger years as hunting and fishing guide for the Ogden Phipps family of NY. He married Mary Pat Gormican in 1954 and remained with her until his death. He is survived by his wife and children, Mike (Nelda) of Pensacola, Lynn Melvin (Ron) and Bill (Carolyn) of Fort Myers. He is survived by grandchildren Paul Rogers (Katie), Katie Rogers, David Melvin (Sara), Daniel Melvin (Laura), Rex Rogers and Clay Rogers. He had a full and wonderful life and will be greatly missed. Graveside service will be held in the family plot at Oak Ridge Cemetery in Arcadia, Jan. 2 at 1 p.m. Online condolences may be made at pongerkaysgrady.com

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, Forever and ever. Amen. Page 37

The Transformer Plant had a union. Now I didn’t know much about unions but my dad was the president. I didn’t know that either until I had been there a while. Anyway, to get a promotion, you had to get off probation, which was 90 days and apply with your signature on a big board. Of course I wanted more money, so when an opening came up, I applied. I looked on the big board every day to see if I had gotten the job. While I was waiting, an old friend of mine (Gary Smith) had been hired and was working right beside me. One Thursday afternoon we were on break and he looks over at me and says, “I know where we can get a job and not have to work in this heat”. Remember we were in a big metal building with a big exhaust fan in the end of it. For sure it was hot in there. I said, “sure you do”. He said, “Winn Dixie would hire us in a minute”. I replied, “let’s go”. He said, “OK, I will call my old supervisor and set up an appointment”. He had worked for Winn Dixie after school bagging groceries in his last year, so he did know the supervisor. Next day, he comes in and says we have an appointment with Mr. Lingo at the Arcadia Drug Store Café at 9 am this Saturday. I thought he was kidding, but sure enough, we showed up and there he was big as life. He sat there, bought us breakfast and told me to report to work Tuesday morning at 6 am at the Winn Dixie in Sebring. Gary was to start in Arcadia Tuesday but we were both to go to the new store when it opened in Lake Placid. I couldn’t believe it. Just that fast. We were so excited. But wait…… my dad had gotten me the job with the Transformer Plant. How could I leave so fast and how would I give a 2 week notice? What was I going to do? How could I do that to my dad? What about Charlie Hilton? I had to talk to my dad to see what he thought. Maybe I should just forget about Winn Dixie. Maybe I should just stay there and hope for the promotion. When I got home, I told my mom about what was going on. She said to talk to dad and see what he says. But how could I even tell him I had been looking for another job? How could I……….

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence. The first day, the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry. The wound is still there."
