(UPI) - Governor Welsh was greeted by about 50 pickets protesting a Lake Michigan port at Burns Ditch when he arrived at the Indiana Dunes State Park Thursday night to attend a Democratic dinner. The pickets were officers and members of the Save the Dunes Council, which has long fought the state’s plans to build a port at a site which nature lovers want preserved for scientific and recreation purposes. The picketing was orderly.* Pickets carried placards, one of which implied Welsh supports beaches and parks “only in Southern Indiana.” The sign was carried by Mrs. Judson Harris of Chesterton. Pickets reported Welsh paid little attention to the pickets but saw Mrs. Harris' sign and took a second look. Council vice president Robert Mann of Michigan City said Welsh remarked, “That sign is untrue.’’ .... Among the demonstrators was Mrs. James H. Buell, Ogden Dunes, president of the council. Other signs said “Don’t Steel the Dunes” and “Gov. Welsh: Nature’s Worst Enemy.”

May Relax School Building Standards INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — William E. Wilson, state superintendent of public instruction, said today the 1965 Legislature may need to decide whether building standards for public schools chould be relaxed in order to lower construction costs. Wilson appeared before the Indiana School Building Construction Studay Commission and said standards are “a big problem.” “We have been opposed to the use of temporry buildings because we felt children should be in permanent structures. But the legislature faces a decision if we are to follow the pattern we are following or start building cheaper buildings,” Wilson said. He said that since about 30,000 new pupils enter Indiana schools each year, this means “about 1,000 classrooms more,” But he added that the classroom needs often are concentrated in spots and not scattered evenly over the state. Wilson said “school reorganization is one thing causing a boom in building right now.” Robert E. Martin, school planning administrator for the State Department of Education, was linked by the legislators on the commission if he believes more authority is needed in his department. Martin had complained that several times after he approved a school building plan, he discovered the plan had been changed. “I’m opposed-to any one person or group having too much power,” Martin said. “But if I could have enough staff to help people on a consultant basis, I think this would help.” Rep. Robert Sheaffer of Shelbyville, chairman of the commission, said that in his hometown there is a movement to build a larger gymnasium. “We keep losing the basketball tournaments to Columbus,” Sheaffer said. “But I haven’t seen our present gym filled at a regular game except once when Crispus Attucks was playing and that’s because Bill Garrett, the Attucks coach, is from Shelbyville. It just doesn’t seem feasible to me to build a bigger gym.” Stolen Hub Caps Returned To Owner A thief who apparently let his conscience get the better of him has returned four stolen hub caps to their owner. Donald Vore,s a resident of 515 Adams St., reported to the city police at 10:05 p.m. Thursday that he had been away from his home for a couple of hours, and upon returning found four hub caps on his back porch. Vore had reported the four spin-ner-type hub caps, valued at sls, as stolen to the city police Wednesday morning. They Had been taken from his auto While parked at his home either late Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning.

WHY FEWER BABIES DIE TODAY Fifty year* ago, one out of every 10 babies died during its first year of life. Today, infant mortality during that first year has declined to only one out of 40 babies. Much of the credit for this huge drop belongs to the potent drugs that help defenseless infants to fight the diseases that once meant certain death. That's why we say .. .

Rhe J International Uniiorm Sunday School Leesons Covenant People Lesson for August 11, IM3

Bikie Material: Genests 15-20. Derotlenal Reading: Psalm 111. (")NE of the most important words in the Bible is “Covenant.” It may not be a common word today, but it stands for something we all cherish. When a president or other official elected by the people takes the oath of

office, that is a covenant. When a young couple repeat their marriage vows, that is a covenant. A covenant is a special kind of promise, it is a twoway thing. Sometimes a man will say “I promised

Dr. Foreman

myself so and so .. but that is not usual. Now the point of the Covenant,—it is always the Covenant,—in the Bible is that religion is a two-way street. It is a relationship, it is a promise of God to man and of man to God. “Pivotal promise” Many things can be said about the idea of Covenant in the Bible and in the life of the Christian. (Christians often call themselves the Covenant People or the New Israel.) Let us pick out three. First, the Covenant stands for the fact that you are not supposed to slide or glide into relationship with God. You choose God, He chooses you. Religion is not contemplation, though there is room in it for contemplation. Religion is a commitment, a promise you are not to throw lightly to one side. Religion-by-accident is not Bible religion. Religion-on-pur-pose is more like it. Religion is personal or not genuine. It is personal or a fake. Your parents can’t sign for you, they can’t respond to God for you, they can’t come to God, or choose Him, in your place. Religion is voluntary. Religion is for always The word Covenant also suggests that religion of the right kind is continuous, you can’t put • aw as you might put on a rainmot now and then when a storm tom up. There are people who do just that, you know; they never enter God’s house nor read God’s Word, but they holler for help when they are in trouble. God for them is just a raincoat to keep life’s rains from their sensitive skins. For other people, religion is something for Sunday, or something to take when you go visit your grandmother, something oldfashioned, kept like an old rocking chair but too weak to bear any one’s weight. On the contrary, the Covenant-idea of religion suggests that our relation to God is not only personal and undertaken by an act of our free will, but it is continuous. It may be out of your consciousness but it is always a fact. You may not always be thinking that you are a married person; but fortunately you are married whether you are aware of it every waking minute or not A Christian is just as much in a "Covenant relation” to God when he is at work on the farm or in the bank or the hospital as he is in church. Furthermore, the Covenant approach to religion suggests that our relation to God is active not passive. In the Old Testament and the New, Coven- . ant always carries with the obligation to Obedience. It leads to doing as well as to being. Religion, singular and plural We have been talking about Covenant as if it were all a matter between the soul and God, a private, Individual matter. Well it is; but it would belie the Bible picture of Covenant if we stopped here. There are comparatively few cases where God is said to have a covenant with some individual as with Abraham. The standard picture is God on one side and the “Covenant People” on the other. Our relation to God is never what it ought to be if it is strictly individual and no more. The Lord’s Prayer sets the keynote for the New Testament. It uses the first person plural: Our Father . . . Give us this day . . . forgive us as we forgive ... There is a Community of the Covenant, —which is another way of saying there is a community of the committed: namely the church. That is, the Covenant which each person has with God, and the Covenant which the community has with Him, are two aspects of the same thing. The church —your church—any true church however small or large—is not just a conglomeration of all sorts and conditions of men, though it is that; but the Important fact about the church is what the members have in common; they belong to one another, and they belong to God.

Beyond all doubt, htom heeislE Beyond all doubt, the home is the center not only of the first but of the deepest and most lasting influences in human life. It may be that the young pecple in the home are scarcely conscious of these impressions; but 'hey may for that reason be not less lasting, because they form part of their abiding, self-conscious life. It cannot be denied that m the home the foundations of personal and national religion first must be laid; and if they are not laid there, then the hold upon them hereafter will always be precarious. It seems to me essential that all the relationships of the home should be consecrated by their association with the one supreme relationship binding all the others together, to the one eternal Father, and His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. And there is no way comparable to the old and honorable custom of family prayer to bring the rememberance of God right into the heart of the home life from beginning to end. I trust that truth may be impressed anew upon the hearts of our fellow countrymen. The one way of consecrating the home, and bringing into. it from the first the rernember'ance of God, is by continuing the custom of family prayers. Nothing else can take its place. It is admirable that we should have our private prayers and reading of the Bible. It is admirable that we should attend the services of our church. But none of these things afford the outward expres-
