REV. SEXTON ADDRESSES LINCOLN P.T.A. THURSDAY The Rev. Virgil Sexton, pastor of the Decatur Methodist church, was the speaker at the January meeting of the Lincoln school Thursday night. The meeting was P.T.A. in the school auditorium over by Judge,, Myles J’arrish, president, who conducted a short business meeting. John R. Eichhorn, program chairman, introduced Rev. Sexton who spoke on the subject "Prayer." The subject stemmed from the proximity of the P.T.A. meeting to the national week of prayer, just ended, which was observed in Decatur. Rev. Sexton stated that America has shown signs of a great spiritual renewal, and the latest census was the first which showed more than 50% of the American people affiliated with a church. The life of Jesus was the first example used by the local pastor as to the necessity and effectiveness of prayer. Not only His personal strength, but the strength inspired in His followeds came from daily meditation and prayer. Rev Sexton also pointed out that prayer helps a person gain a consciousness of God that goes beyond a mere belief, to a personal and powerful force. The final point made was that prayer helps an* individual gain a unity of character that is not only important, but necessary in times of trial and danger. He pointed out that the greatest defense is no stronger than the moral charter of the people using that defense. The terrifying weapons of today can be a great boon to world peace and prosperity when used properly, or can be a Frankenstein that destroys the makers. When used with an attitude developed with prayer as a guide, all the powerful forces created by man can help him to live in peace. It was announced by Judge Parrish that the Lincoln P.T.A. has purchased and installed a new bottled gas stove in the school’s kitchenette. Due to the heavy drain on the electrical line, some of the applicances were not giving maximum performance, and the cost of bringing in a 220 volt line was prohibitive. The new stove, which has burners and an oven, will increase the efficiency of the kitchen. BANDAGES WERE MADE FOR CANCER SOCIETY Fourteen members of the Business and Professional Women’s club and four guests met at the home of Miss Glennys Roop to make bandages for the cancer society. Miss Marie Felber, superintendent of nurses at the Adams county Memorial hospital served as instructor. The health and safety committee is in charge of this project.

The club will meet again Feb. 5 at 7:30 at the home of Miss Roop to make more bandages. All members are urged to attend. After the bandages were made, refreshments were served by Miss Roop and the committee. Mrs. Fred Hancher will be leader for the meeting of the Historical club that will be held next Wednesday at 2:30 pEm. The group will meet at home of Mrs. Homer Lower of 423 N- 2nd street. ’ The Ruth and Naomi circle of the Zion Evangelical and Reformed church will meet at the church Wednesday at 2 p.m. Mrs. Tony Meyer will conduct the lesson.

They said calendars devoted too much attention to the days, weeks and months of the year and not enough to Communist doctrine. They also are being used to sneak capitalist”’ propaganda and western scenery into Soviet Zone homes, the Communist charged. And what is worse, they said, they tell East Germans what day Easter and Good Friday and Palm Sunday fall on but not the anniversary of “the glorious Soviet October Revolution” or “our liberation day.” The criticism in the official party newspaper Neues Deutsphland demanded that the Communist Party and. the Ministry of Culture see to it that “Socialist” calendars are produced next year. Neues Deutschland said East German manufacturers made the big mistake of thinking people bought a calendar to find out what day it is. Everybody knows, it said, the real purpose is to show daily the difference between the way of life and prospects for the future in EasJ and West. Calendar pictures were criticized as decadent middle class art instead of being “fighting socialist art.” The most severe attack was made on the calendar published by the state-run East German "Lufthansa” Airline. It called attention only to religious holidays and did not mention the big Communist holidays, not 'even the anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution, Neues Deutschland said.
