W THS WORLD’S > - REDEEMER J Christianity is not the religion of a single ”7 class, a single nation, or a single race. It is X/ the religion which God intended for the MS ’’7 world — all nations, all races, all classes. The Bible refers to Christ as "the Lamb

which—taketh away the sin of the Jf '" world.’’ It speaks of His sacrifice on the cross as being the payment for” all sins“and not for ours only; — but also for the sins of the whole world." Anyone who reads his Bible will see that the redemption which Christ effected by His substitutionary death embraced every member of the human family — white, black, yellow, red or brown. Christ is the world Redeemer. Any man, regardless of his station in life, if he repents of his sins and turns to Christ for pardon, can be assured of full and free forgiveness. “For God so loved the WORLD that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life,” Christianity is, indeed, the only world religion. , k THESE LUTHERAN CHURCHES Invite You to Attend MIDWEEK LENTEN SERVICES ST.

Downgrades Virus As Common Cold Cause Deep-Breathing Is Top Recommendation By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP) -A veteran nasal scientist has downgraded the virus and up-graded the nose in answering the question of what causes the common cold. As for what to do about a cold, he recommends deep-breathing. The way Dr. Emanuel M. Josephson now views the nose, after decades of study and thought, is that it's an air conditioner of tremendous efficiency But people breathe in shallow fashion habitually and constantly. The result is they clog it up and have colds. In his view, a virus or viruses had nothing to do with “the great majority’ of colds. When the socalled “common cold virus" (which has never been identified) is involved, the viral infection is secondary to a break-down in the air-conditioner. Made Year’s Study As an air conditioner, the nose warms and moistens the incoming air if the air is too cold and dry, or coots and dries it if it is too hot and most. This, Dr. Josephson said, is his conclusion after a years-old' study of the relation of the nose to the whole physiology of breathing. It is all done by the nucous membrane of the nose and sinuses which is richly supplied with blood vessels. Incoming air passes over the network of blood vessels which either cool or heat the air to their own temperature, and, by processes involving evaporation, humidify it or dehumidify it. The chest working as a bellows, as it does in breathing, provides the fan action which most air conditioners have. When we breathe in, the ..chest expands. This creates “negative pressure” which speeds the passage of blood through the "heat exchange” in the nose. When we breathe shallow, the negative pressure is small and congestions follows- % Gives Conclusions This causes a breakdown in nasal thermostatic control of temperature, and, according to Dr. Josephson, this is the cause of “the majority of colds.” He thought either chilling or becoming overheated could trigger it. His cure for the common cpld is deep - breathing exercises which, he said, could be effective in a matter of "m iriu te s to hours." These exercises should be slow, with “pauses at the end of inhaling and exhaling." Nostrils Closed by congestion can be opened this way, although it takes times and persistence. He recommended that the exerciser lie on his side so gravity would help clogged sinuses to drain. And the way to keep from having colds is to breathe deeply all the time, as a matter of habit Jolly Juniors The first meeting of the Preble Jolly Juniors was held March 6 at the home of Mrs. Irvin Worthman. Officers elected were Linda Kruetzman, president; Ruth Ann Beery, vice president; Lila Kruetzinan, secretary; Judy Selking, treasurer;- Helen Reppert, health leader; Sandy McDougall, Safety leader; Eva Miller and Cindy Durr, recreation leaders; Maxine Bulmahn, song leader; Shirley Bieberich. news reporter.

Child Rescued From Elevated Platform Hangs Five Minutes Before Being Saved NEW YORK (UP)— A four-year-old boy hung by one foot between the ties of an elevated subway platform for five minutes Monday, screaming for his “mommy.” She was dead beneath the wheels of a train. As hundreds watched and prayed in the street 60 feet below, two policemen braced themselves to catch the boy. He was finally pulled to safety at the track level by the train’s motorman and a transit policeman. His ankle was bruised, but he was otherwise unhurt. Police said Mrs. Marie Vitucci, 30, had picked up the youngster, Michael Jr. and deliberately jumped with him into the train's path. On the platform she left packages containing new clothes for her two other children, Lucille, 8, and Christopher, 11. Mike fell head first between the ties and one foot caught in the structure. “Mommy! Mommy!” he cried. "Help me!”* His shrieks brought crowds ' from the stores on the Brooklyn ' .street below and the two officers : from their beat. ■ The youngster was by then under the train, which motorman Matthew Reiss, 42, had been unable to stop in time to avoid the ’ mother Reiss and transit patrol- ‘ man John Roselle jumped to the tracks and reached under, work- ' ing frantically to free the boy ’ without dropping him through the ties. Capt. JSmes Cook of England, from 1773 to 1775, sailed around Antarctica without seeing land. Spain ceded Florida to the United States Feb. 22, 1819.

Audience Enthralled By Famous Violinist

By Pat Zehr A crowd of over 250 people gathered Monday evening to listen to the world famous violinist, David Rubinoff, in his two-hour performance at the Decatur high • school auditorium. Sponsored by the Decatur Lions club, master of ceremonies for the evening was M. C. Sieling, president of the Lions club. Rubinoff, who strayed only once from the program by adding “Around the World," gave a sensational performance. Accompanied only by Homer Phillips on the piano, the violinist enthralled his audience in such away that many times during the evening, it was possible to close one’s eyes and imagine an orchestra was playing. One of the favorite pieces of the evening was his Ballad of Davy Crockett. He played the ballad in 15 characteristic styles. During an interview with the master, Rubinoff explained that for the train effect, one of the 15, he put in over five weeks of experimenting and practicing to get the effect just perfect. Although there were two piano solos, “Tea for Two,” and “I Got Rhythm,” there were no violin so-

An afternoon concert was held at the Decatur high school auditorium for a crowd of approximately 550 people. For every performance, Rubinoff used one of the most precious instruments in the world, a Stradivarius violin, which is insured for SIOO,OOO.

The program included Debussy’s “Clair De Lune,” Dinicu-Heifetz’s “Hora Staccato!” Addinsell's “Warsaw Concerto” and Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue.” The final number entitled “Square Dance Fiddlin’,” was made up of such songs as “Oh, Susanna,” "Little Brown Jug,” “Red Wing,” and “Good Night Ladies.”
