I ' A huge statue of the Last Supper weighing 25 tons has been installed in Memorial Park. Milwaukee. Wis. Each figure measures 6>h feet high in a sitting position. Just a little more than 500 years ago Johann Gutenberg started work on the first complete edition of the Bible which was to be printed from moveable type, which he invented. The job took him five years. In the fifteenth century the Bible was “the best seller.’’ and now in -the twentieth century, even though it competes with approx--1 imately 7,500 new books each year, it still remains the best seller. Twenty Christian evangelists attended the communist-sponsored World Youth Festival in Vienna. They preached on street corners and in public gathering places, engaged in personal conversations, \ and distributed thousands of portions of the Scriptures. i-■. • ’ — A recent broadcast in Budapest. I Hungary, complained that preschool religious training given to . children by their parents was ■ making the teacher’s task '“far from easy.’’ When a child enters school “delusions inherited from the old society, mistaken religous beliefs and superstitions, the colorful mysticism of religion.-: .cling to his soul,” the broadcast said. “Often the teacher has“to peel off thousands of threads ‘of idealist and, above all, religious ideology from the child’s soul.” In New York City, pastors of all faiths have been cooperating in sermons which deal with the problems of youth. A list of 12 questions has been circulated among pastors covering youth problems. These inquire into the causes of religious, moral and social breakdowns among youth. Pastors are asked tp turn their sermon inquiries to these subjects and to remind, parents of the many influences. which adversely affect young people. The campaign rose out of the urgency of the recent outbreak of youthful Violence in New York. • V A ■-- y 1 A' TRINITY Evangelical United Brethren Ninth and Madison Streets J. O. Penrod, pastor “Come with u$ and we will do thee good.” Twov outstanding experiences await you in the morning worship- service at Trinity.
