LETTER

EDITOR

Dear Editor: We are rearing a generation of people that know only to want to be entertained. This will make them easy prey to communism. Wa have tried to turn our schools and communities into recreational agencies with the taxpayer* paying the bills for such. Also, where in the Bible do we find that the Lord ever authorized the church to furnish recreation for young or old. It is true that all people need some form of recreation or a hobby, but it seems to me that this is the job of the parents in the home. When we were growing up, we never had to go somewhere to find recreation. We were always allowed to bring our friends into our home for recreation. We were also taught, from the time we were small, to learn to work and help ethers. People used to be taught to grow up and amount to Something, living for ether people and feeling needed, and didn’t have a need to be entertained themselves. ’ l Young people need to be taught to grow up. They also need to be taught that instead of everyone owing them something, they owe something to the world and to their God. If they are taught that there is so much good we can be doing for other people, friends and neighbors, they will be so busy that they won’t have time on their hands, and they could make the lives of older people much happier and be a much better person because of it. Of course, some of the fault lies with our adult class in wanting so much to be entertained ourselves, that we are glad to push our children out for someone else to entertain or for them to find It themselves. We just are not setting the example before our younger generation. The adults need to grow up also and go back to the days when we lived for others and not ourselves and lived as God would have us do, according to the Bible. Yes, our young people have needs, but they are spiritual much more than social and recreational. A parent M. B.

Dear Sir: In Saturday’s paper there Is a letter to the editor containing some errors which I believe should be corrected. The writer of the letter, in attempting to make a quotation from the Bible writes as follows: “From the heart comes the real issues of life,’ says Jesus Christ.’’ I would like to point out that these words were not spoken by Jesus, but are a somewhat garbled and ungrammatical form of Proverbs 4:23. The verse In the King James version reads “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of lifo.’*

It seems to me that in quoting from the Bible (or indeed any important book) it is essential to give sources accurately and to quote correctly. Sincerely yours, John Holstrom, Indianapolis Road, Greencastle, Ind.

—Simmert tutors from area high-schools | and DePauw, has been extremely successful. David Casey of Greencastle reported that in Putnam County alone, forty high school students and seven- ; ty-five DePauw students have volunteered. Dick Morley, a senior high school student from Freedom, reported encouraging results from Owen County and Mrs. Emmylou Hastings, Clay County Field Representative, has fifty-one tutors. Children at all grade levels may take advantage of this free program. Response from churches, schools and private citizens in offering space, time and materials has been much greater than anticipated. COP-CAP’s numerous December activities, including Christmas parties on December 17 for Headstart children and their parents, will be announced in this paper. Mr. Jonea asked for donations of materials, games, etc. for the tutoring program; these could come from individuals or con-

cerned groups.

Georgia Election In High Court WASHINGTON UPI — The nine justices of the Supreme Court turn their attention today to the legal feud over who is going to be Georgia’s next governor. Their decision could have an eventual impact not only on Georgia but on the other states as well, particularly Vermont and Mississippi, which also require that the governor be elected by a majority of the vote cast. The justices return to the bench after a two-week recess. Before hearing the Georgia case, they were to hand down opinions in some of the 37 cases now under advisement and to dispose of a long list of petitions for review. Georgia’s problem arose when neither Republican Rep. Howard H. (Bo) Callaway nor Democrat Lester G. Maddox received a majority in the Nov. 8 balloting for governor owing to the 6 per cent write-in vote for former Gov. Ellis G. Amall. The state’s 142-year-old constitution requires that the governor be elected by a majority of votes cast, not a mere plurality.

On firemen, pharmacists, and physicians

■ Firemen, pharmacists, and physicians accept as part of their lives tome odd working hours. That's because sickness, like fire, doesn't work a short day. We stay open longer than most stores because our important job is helping to fight sickness. We’re also pretty handy when you need a host of nonmedidnal things. But the main thing is that we’re usually around when your doctor and you need pharmaceutical aervice.
