To My Friends and Adams County Voters WALTER W. KOOS of North St. Marys, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE for ADAMS COUNTY ASSESSOR For a SECOND TERM Subject to the wishes of the Voters at the GENERAL ELECTION. NOVEMBER 4. 1958

1 am a life-long Democrat. A CHARTER MEMBER of the ADAMS COUNTY JEFFERSON CLUB, A MEMBER of the Decatur Chamber of- ’ Commerce, A member of The Decatur Calvary E. U. B. Church, A retired General Electric employee. Own and live on the farm in St. Mary’s Twp., where I was born. I am now serving the last of my first term as Adams County Assessor. I have been complimented by many voters of both the Democratic and Republican parties for efficiency in this office. Why take a chance on changing your County Assessor when you have a man of experience asking for a Second Term, which is only customary. Why Change Horses in the Middle of the Stream? My opponent, as far as I know, is a respected man. However he is not experienced as an Assessor either for a Township or County. Considering that the Office is regarded one of the most important in the County by our State Tax Commission, do you want to change an excellent man for a new untried man ? Ido not believe you do. Hoping to receive favorable consideration from you, the Voters of Adams County on the coming General Election, November 4, 1958. Very respectfully yours, WALTER KOOS Pol. Advt.

DaroUoaal Beading: Luke 4:16-21. Beginning Hera Lesson for November 2, 1958 THOUSANDS of Americans have visited Galilee. The very name has a glamorous sound. But at the time the events were occurring which lent the place its fame, now famous around the world, it had nt glamor at all. It is a little region no bigger than a county. At th<

Dr. Foreman

time Jesus lived, It was a part, a very insignificant comer, of a great empire, governed by a politician named Herod with the title of “Tetrarch,”-c---what we today might call a backwoods V.I.P.

People look at things differently nowadays. If Jesus had had a pub-lic-relations man, or somebody like a' Hollywood agent, they would certainly have, advised a start somewhere besides Galilee. “Everybody will think you have no background” they might have said. "When people hear you are from Galilee they will just say Oh. If you have any ambition for a career, Galilee is a pretty poor bottom rung on the ladder of success.” Confusion at tho Crossroads But Galilee was where Jesus was, and that is where he started. It did seem absurd. (Not to him, of course, but to any worldly-wise observer.) Galilee was not only an ordinary dusty unglamorous sort of countryside, dotted with towns and villages most of which have long been forgotten. Galilee was a crossroads, a melting pot. It lay along important highways. It was open to immigration, and there had been lots of it. There were not many Galileans who could boast of proud pedigrees to match those of the aristocrats up in Jerusalem. All sorts of people, with all sorts of ideas and ideals, all sort of customs, yes and all sorts of religions, had come and settled in Galilee. There were toWns such as Tiberias, Herod’s little back-country capital, that had been settled by so many non-Jews or half-Jews, that Jews

“in good and regular standing" would not be caught dead in them, and would not even trade in them. Again, what an unlikely region to start a new religion! Religions by the dozens flourished or faded as the case might be, in Galilee. One more religion, an so what? With all the clamoring voices of rival faiths, what chance did the voice of truth have in all that interference? Besides, you would expect the founder of a new religion to take his followers to some remote shrine, where he and they could meditate without being disturbed by newsboys and telephones. Os course Galilee had neither telephones or newsboys; but it had the equivalents of both. And there is precisely where Jesus started, in all the noise and jangle, the competition and confusion. No Roligous Background People's minds in Galilee were not on religion. There were no great shrines there, no temples like the one in Jerusalem. Priests were few and far between. There was no great religious tradition. "Selling" religion to Galileans was not promising. Granted, the "pious" people around Jerusalem included a number of hypocrites. Still, why not start in Jerusalem where people were already interested, instead of starting cold, in Galilee? Once when Jesus was teaching, . never more earnestly or spiritually in his life, one of these moneyminded Galileans shouted to him from the crowd: Make my brother divide our inheritance with me! It is hard to get under the skin and next to conscience of people like that. Galilee Is Our Town All the same, Jesus began in Galilee, and stayed with it almost to the end. He set thereby an example to us. For Galilee is our town. We could make a better beginning somewhere else, we think, but if Galilee is where we live, that is ..where we must beg*n to be Chfristians before we try it in Tdkyo or Timbuctoo. A man who is a poor missionary in his home tow’n will not be a good missionary at the ends of the earth. A church that supports foreign missions with enthusiasm but supports social injustice at home is not giving an effective Christian witness. A church that pretends to be Christian must be interested in people; and if you cannot get intersted in the unglathorous Galileans around you, ydu will not do dwell better elsewhere.
