A HAPPY HOME A Tennessee lad once wrote: "A better home is a place my dad is proud to support, my mother loves ta take care of, and we like to be in. It is a place to grow old in.” The home has also been called the laboratory of the soul. Religion should play a prominent part in every happy home. Parents can pretend that they will not force their own religious *views and make their own church affiliation later. This is as ridiculous as letting a toddler play in the medicine cabinet and hope he will not take anything to harm himself. The young cannot distinguish between what is helpful and what is poison whether medicine or in the realm of literature. Parents are committed to a sacred trust in guiding their children and religious neautrality is impassible. They must carefully guide and nurture their children in the ways of truth or they will have abdicated their trust. Only free people can bold their purposes and their honor steady to a common end and prefer the interests of mankind to any narrow interest of their own. — Wilson. The cause of freedom is identified with the destinies of humanity. and in whatever part of the world it gains ground, by and by it will be a commpn.gain to ajl who desire it. — Kossuth , RIVERSIDE GARAGE Front Wheel Alignment Batteries and Tires 126 E.

The Church Invites You Most homes today in this country are equipped with electrical devices heater, refrigerator, dishwasher and many other things. It makes for very pleasant living except when the electrical current stops — then difficulties arise. Much of life in inspirational areas is dependent upon a current, the current that flows from God into the hearts of men. So long as the current is secure and God’s strength, like current from a power house flows into our lives, all is well. However when the connection between our lives and the spirit of God is severed, the spiritual qualities of life, peace, comfort, power, understanding ceases and life is deprived of all that makes it richest and finest. The church offers a place where the connection between our spirits and that of God may be restored and maintained. WHY NOT ACCEPT THE INVITATION AND COME TO CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY? CHURCH FORUM HOW CAN WE MEASURE OUR EMOTIONAL MATURITY? Dr. and Mrs. Harry Overstreet have dealt with this problem in three of their books, “The Mature Mind”, "The Great Enterprise” and “The Mind Alive.” In each instance they have tried to help make their readers understand themselves and social relationships that could make it possible to move immature behavior to a calm, discerning, balanced attitude toward life. According to the Overstreets, the answers yoii give to the following six questions will determine the measure of your emotional maturity: (1). Is the movement of your life toward your world or away from it? (2) Do you have a sound capacity to give and take? (3) Do you have the power to hold the course of moderation? (4) Are you able to recover from the unwanted experiences of life? (5) Do you have the sense of something GREATER THAN YOURSELF? (6) Do you have, a sense of the unfulfilled possibilities of life? How do; you rate? You 1. What great Jewish prophets » were captives in Babylonia? 2. What is the. shortest book of the Bible? 3. What is probably the oldest city in Palestine? 4.

An innovation in Russia, which is merely an attempt at imitating Christianity is an announcement that Leningrad plans to build a “Palace of Baptism’’. The idea is to counteract continued adherence to the religious ceremony. Polish Protestants will give a seven-volume edition of Martin Luther’s works to their country when it celebrates its 1000th anniversary in 1966. The 15th World’s Christian Endeavor Convention will be held in Belfast, Ireland, according to announcement made by Bishop Clyde W. Meadows president of the World’s Christian Endeavor Union. Dates for the sessions are July 27 - August 1, 1966. A total of 63.4% of the population of the United States, or 117,946,000 are members of churches, synagogues, or other places of worship, according to figures issued by the National Council of Churches. The total is slightly less than the record 63.6 reported in 1960. Os 252 bodies reporting 222 were Protestant with more than 64 million members The Roman Catholic total was above 43,000,000. The fastest growing group was reported to be the Southern Baptist Convetion, with a membership of almost 11 million. Special services and observances marking the 800th anniversary of the world famous Cathedral of Notre Dame will take place this summer. The observances were planned for 1963 but cancelled because of the death of Pope John. The celebrations will commemorate the start of the cathedral’s construction in 1163. It has played a major role in France’s history as the scene of many state marriages. During the French Revolution it was labeled the “Temple of Reason’’ and in 1794 it was desecrated and closed. Returned, to the Catholic church in 1802 it was partially restored for the coronation of Napoleon in 1804. THE BETTER WAY The writings of Henry van Dyke have been extremely popular largely because of the versatility of his pen. As a poet, preacher, teacher and diplomat, he has left a valuable heritage of literary treasures. The following is one of his best known selections: “To be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars — To be satisfied with your possessions but not contented with yourself until you have made the best of them — To despise nothing in the world except falsehood and meanness, and to fear nothing except cowardice — To be governed by your admirations rather than by your disgusts; to covet nothing that is your neighbor’s except his kindness of heart and gentleness of manners — To think seldom of your enemies, often of your friends, and every day of Christ; and to spend as much time as you can, with body and with spirit, in God’s out of doors. These are little guideposts on the footpath to peace.” Individuals believing in freedom of the individual, cooperating with each other have created the degrees of World recognition of freedom of thought, freedom of speech and freedom of religion existing in America and throughout the world.

Likewise the events and experiences which we encounter gradually alter our lives as they pound upon us year after year. Just as the altering of its form does not change the beauty and grandeur of The Falls, neither do difficult expediences rob life of its beauty and majesty if the solid rock of character holds firm.
