"WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU VISIT THE CHURCH OF CHRIST" The Greencastle Church of Christ will be conducting a series of Gospel Meetings this next week, March 10-16. We would like to extend a warm and urgent invitation to everyone to attend. Perhaps you have said, "I intend to visit you sometime." But you have put it off simply because of the dread of going into a strange place, not knowing what to expect. We'd like to introduce ourselves and let you know what to expect when you visit us. First, let us see what not to expect. There will be no special collections made during this gospel meeting. We invite you to attend this mooting and leave your purse at home. We will not ask you to give one cent during this meeting. The church of Christ (Rom. 16:16) is financially supported by its members' laying by in store on the first day of tho wook as God has prospered them (1 Cor. 16:1-2). Wo ask financial support from nobody else. You will find no tendency toward entertainment. We will not have any professional singers, musicians, beautiful organ or instrumental music. The entire congregation will engage in singing spiritual and understandable songs with simple melodies as they are led by one of the brethren (Eph. 5:19; Col. 3:16). You will probably be familiar with most hymns and are invited to join with us in the ringing. We feel man has spiritual needs which are far more important then his physical desires for entertainment. Our only purpose is to meet man's spiritual needs. You will find no cold or formal rites being said in some foreign tongue. Neither will you find the assembly in confusion as a numbor of poople aro speaking or praying at tho same time. But you will observe the congregation rovorently and quiotly engaging in prayer as it is worded by one of the brethren (1 Tim. 2:1-8). Everything will be done decently and in order. You will find no sensationalism or emotionalism in the lessons presented. The Gospel consists of : Facts to be believed, commands to be obeyed, warnings to be heeded and promises to be enjoyed. This gives no occasion for speculation or over-wrought emotionalism. Our purpose will be to preach the pure and simple Gospel of Christ (Rom. 1:16). There will be no effort to embarrass or pressure you in any way. You will not be asked to raise your hand or stand up, or in any way be identified before the audience. No one will go about the audience urging people to come forward. There will be nothing to make you wish you hadn't come, or make you feel out of place. Neither the worship, nor the invitation, are designed to embarass, but rather to teach. We ask only that you come and consider what the Bible teaches concerning your soul's salvation. Let us now look at the Gospel Meeting from the positive side. First, you will be our respected guest. You will be greeted with kindness and courtesy. A sincere effort will be made to preach the pure and simple truth of the Gospel of Christ. We are commanded to preach the gospel to every creature in every nation (Mt. 28:19, 20; Mk. 16:15-16). This is one of the many efforts to fulfill this command. Our only standard of authority during this meeting will be the Bible, God's inspired word. You will observe that the Bible is the textbook to which reference is repeatedly made in the lessons and sermons. We believe that this is all that man needs to direct his spiritual life in a manner well-pleasing to God (2 Tim. 3:16-17). We preach the gospel in love ... trusting that everyone present will evaluate it in the light of hit personal life and responsibility. Perhaps you will hear scriptures read and truths presented, that you have not hoard before. We believe you will bo impressed by a presentation of God's plan and simple Bible teaching. Our worship is simple and bated entirely on what it taught in the New Testament (Jno. 4:24; Acts 2:42; 1 Pet. 4:11). We will worship at each and-every service of this Gospel Meeting. We will have prayers, congregational singing and a sermon, Christ centered and designed to teach and uplift all who are present. You are urged to take notes and check what you hear against the Bible. There is never any attempt to teach anything profound or mysterious, just simple Bible truths. When you come to our meeting you should expect a warm welcome, Bible preaching, and no embarrassing pressures on you. Why not come and be with us? Presented by: Greencastle Church of Christ, 637 E. Washington

their return, they were greeted with “surprise, surprise” as news of a brother or sister was announced. At this juncture, it was well to look and act surprised. It didn’t hurt to humor parents. BEING BORN AT home has its bragging advantages. Just how far would Abe Lincoln have gone had he been born in a hospital rather than in a log cabin? Of course, not everyone’s birthplace becomes a shrine but what’s to keep us former home-born babies from hoping. The house in which we were born is still standing. To some of the young, especially our offspring, it may not appear to be very auspicious structure. Our defense is short and simple: When house and man have been around this long, there’s nothing unusual in being shy a few shingles or being somewhat the worse for wear.

PSI urges limits

Public Service Indiana said that with double-digit inflation already forcing its costs up it will not be a willing partner to arbitrary ’or unnecessary environmental regulations that will push the cost of electricity still higher. The stance on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s position regarding sulfur dioxide emissions is published in the electric company’s 1974 annual report, just issued. Federal emission requirements, the utility said, are being demanded at an extremely high cost to the consumer without demonstrating that such measures are necessary for the protection of public health. “Energy users, already struggling with economic slowdown and inflation, have yet to feel the full impact of the Federal government’s unrelenting position on sulfur dioxide emission control,” says the utility statement. “Preoccupation with stringent standards on sulfur dioxide emissions rather than a real concern for meeting air quality standards which protect the public health has very substantial social and economic consequences.

would be increased about 30 percent if across-the-board sulfur dioxide emission reduction is required,” the report estimated. Public Service Indiana, which serves nearly half a million customers in 69 of Indiana’s 92 counties, said it will continue to act responsibly in correcting clearly identified environmental problems. The utility has spent nearly S3O million since 1961 for dust collection equipment. Wanted To Rent WANTED TO RENT: Pop-up camper in good condition for first two weeks in June.

Howto keep well Time for physical fitness

P.J.H. from Seattle, Wash., writes: “I’ve just turned 40, and I’ve decided it’s about time to do something about getting into shape. Since I’m no kid, I realize only too well that any form of sudden exertion without training could spell trouble. What is the best way for me to start physical fitness program?” Since it sounds as though you are unaccustomed to exercise, the best advice I can give you is the obvious: Start out nice and easy. Begin today by walking up one or two flights of stairs instead of taking the elevator or escalator. Walk part or allthe way to your office, if that’s feasible, and take a walk during your lunch hour. If you have a weight problem, skip lunch or eat lightly. Once you have established the habit of walking, take on more strenuous exercise. . Among the possible choices are bicycling and swimming (and gradually increasing distance),

Expect warm spring

WASHINGTON (AP) - Government scientists say there is a 60 per cent chance that the weather will be warmer than usual this spring in most of the country as farmers turn to planting corn, soybeans and other crops for the 1975 harvests. Cold, wet weather and severe storms in many areas hampered plantings last spring, causing 1974 crop production to drop severely from early expectations. The delay in planting last spring was followed by summer drought in parts of the Midwest, and early frosts last fall cut yields further by killing some corn and soybeans before they had time to mature. “The spring outlook for the period March through May calls for above-normal temperatures across the eastern two-thirds of the nation except for the northern tier of states,” the weather watchers said. The 1975 outlook was included in a weekly report issued Wednesday by the Agriculture Department in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. “Above-normal temperatures will push the early development of wheat and encourage early field work in the Corn Belt, provided moisture does not become a problem,” the report said. The report included a chart illustrating the outlook for warmer weather this spring. It showed there is a 60 per cent chance, based on current indicatinns and historical records, that temperatures will be above normal in March, April and May when springplanted crops are seeded and when winter wheat planted last fall will do much of its growing. Although the USDA has not made official estimates of 1975 crop production, officials have said that an all-out planting surge by farmers could produce record harvests of wheat and corn if they have favorable

Back to the record books WASHINGTON (AP) - Recent cutbacks by hog producers have sent Agriculture Department livestock economists to the record books to see how 1975 pork output might compare with earlier years. For example, says the department’s Economic Research Servlts, the inventory of just over 55 million hogs on farms last Dec. 1 was the smallest at the start of a marketing year since 1965, down 10 per cent from Dec. 1, 1973 and 18 per cent below the recent peak of 67.4 million head on Dec. T, 1970. lurther, farmers have indicted they will reduce the number of sows having litters this winter to the lowest number of farrowings since the government began its records in 1924. Even if the number of pigs per litter increases, USDA said, the 1975 pig crop will be the smallest since 1935.

bowling, rowing,golf, volleyball or tennis. Keep moving and increase activities to induce mild breathlessness and increase the heart rate. These will help to build up your endurance. One of the easiest ways to get in shape during the winter is to get a stationary bicycle, put it in your bedroom and peddle for ever-increasing periods of time-up to a reasonable point, that is. This is an inexpensive, non-time-comsuming way to keep physically fit. Start with one minute daily and build up to 10 or 15 minutes once in the morning and again before bed. Isometrics or stationary exercises, where muscles are expanded and contracted, but no “action” motion is involved, increase muscle strength but do not really do much to improve the action of the heart and lungs. In fact, isometric exercises are considered a hazard for people with heart disease.

weather. Those commodities are most important as food builders and for export. Department economists say an abundant 1975 harvest will do much to stimulate the sluggish livestock sector and eventually dampen retail food price increases. The USDA-NOAA reort did not venture beyond March-June in its forecast, but it did discuss generally, the importance of weather trends on U.S. crop production and how prospects in other parts of the world also fit in. “Production around the worle has a significant impact on the supply and price situation in the United States,” the report said. “As the new crop year gets under way, it is important to watch these aeas as well as weather in the United States.”

WORRY CLINIC

Rev. Charles deserves praise for having enough virility to speak out. But, like many youthful idealists, he lacks Christ’s “Horse Sense.” Jesus believed in “selective philanthropy,” not indiscriminate give-aways! CASE C-696: Rev. Charles T., aged 22, is a Student Minister. ‘‘Dr. Crane,” he protested vigorously, “it is a fact that you are in opposition to the clergy! “But must you stoop so low as to paint a perverted Christ? “Why, your last 2 paragraphs in Case B-612 are the most perverted account of Jesus that I have ever encountered! “For you said Christ let probably 25,000 sick and starving people die within the sound of His voice! “How can you make such a statement?” MAUDLIN IDEALISTS First, 1 am ftot a foe of good clergymen but only of the poor pulpit orators who lazily try to "coast” on ecclesiastical “tenure.” Second, read your own Bibles and see for yourselves what Jesus did! “Actions speak louder than words,” runs a truism equally applicable to Christ. In His generation, undoubtedly thousands died of hunger along the very route He walked during that 3-year itinerant seminary He conducted for His 12 Apostles. True, He did launch a church picnic, at which He fed 5,000 men, not to mention women and children, using the lad’s loaves and fishes. But when the crowd mobbed Him later to get another free “feed,” He tartly replied (John 6:26): “. . . Verily, Verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracle, but because ye did eat of the loaves and were filled.” So Christ didn’t give them anothet free meal! Nor did He go around Judea passing out free food stamps! If you admit He was the Son of God, He could have turned stones into bread, as Satan once challenged Him to do. By a wave of His hand. He could thus have stopped starvation all over the land. But He didn’t do so!

For some people, five minutes of simple sitting-up and stretching exercises each morning is adequate to keep St; others need 10 minutes. / Unfortunately, many wellintentioned exercise programs gradually fizzle out when you’re doing them all alone. If that’s your experience, you may need to join a group in order to keep it up. If you are motivated and get into the habit of exercising, you should be able to continue. Try to choose some activity that doesn’t get too boring. Some people like to jog three or four days a week because they like the solitude of running and enjoy the feeling. Others only enjoy exercise if it involves a sense of competition-like tennis, basketball, golf,-or social contact, such as exercise in a group. Just don’t be misled into believing that there’s some magic to the type of exercise you should do, regarriles&W what our jogging friends tell us. Vomiting 6-year-old H.C. writes: “What kind of sickness would cause a 6-year-old boy to throw up everything he eats? He has to be given intravenous feedings to keep him alive. He also gets pains in his stomach. The x-rays and blood tests were negative.” If the x-rays of his esophagus and stomach failed to show an obstruction, he may have a food allergy or an emotional disorder. The latter is a fairly common cause of persistent vomiting but should only be considered after other organic causes are ruled out. Tomorrow: School physicals.

Which means He definitely practiced very selective philanthropy; not the universal give-away boondoggling of many politicians nowadays. Nor did He spend His time making nti’dical house calls, i( ( callecj (he Great Ph V*itian, Ifttcttk PaUrjfl* hatl to have (aid), plus enough energy and ambition to seek out Christ if they wished to be healed or have their children restored to health. And to prove that “selective charity” was His policy, He told His jealous neighbors in Nazareth (Luke 1:25-27): “But 1 tell you of a tiuth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months when great famine was throughout all the land; “But unto none ol them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta. a c ity of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow. “And many hpc-rs were m Israel in tin turn of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman, the Syrian.” Teen-age idealists and maudlin oldet sentimentalists have also misconstmed out Declaration of Independence, which says we are emit led to life, liberty and the PCRSITF of happiness (but not to happiness itself unless we pursue it successfully In elbow grease, hard work, honesty and study).
