David Owen is Speaker At Cub Meeting On Friday, January 5, the Woman’s Community C’lub of Walkerton heard an inspiring, thought-provoking and oracular message which was brought to them by Rev. David Owen, Pastor of the Walkerton Presbyterian Church. Reverend Owen reminded th audience that it was not too late to seek for a better Am eric, i in IM6 and in so doing we thke a good hard look at the world and re-evaluatc the privilege of being an American. Remembering that irresponsibility in an adult lead* to greater expressions of slavery, he suggested that we take up the reins of freedom, stop being pushed around and eupress ouraelvei without denying the rights of others That we must realize dedication, loyalty and love g* beyond self and that we must keep before us what is best for all people*. That to su<ce«-d in our efforts we must learn to pay the price of self denial. Rev. Owen further said t*'-’ we have a challenge as freedom loving Americans to uphold that freedom, to be proud of our heritage and our country. To lx patriotic to praise, honor and r< - spect <air precious land To treat <>ur flag with respect; to halt the burning an*l destnnti n *f draft cards. To be productive and have a s* If sufficiency. T>» realize it is easy to drift tn d«stroy, and to take without * arning. T*» m*—t Die challenge of fre*dom we must lx- responsible. W.- must maintain a n pt*-. nt tive democracy. We must keep before us the fact that th* responsibility of every cltiz* n is our pris<- *if freedom and that t hi-* privilege of fro :im is < arn* d only by dedication nn-1 loyalty. We must n<>t let the voice <»f th* rebel drown out our voice of freedom W must remember that th stimulus in America is to keep <>ur belief in G«xj. We must b d*-ne with shame and repentance and do something about the Hm condition* and crime in our land. In conclusion Rw. Owen reiterated that we must be acutely aware of our heritage, have a pride in it and <»ur freedom. That we nu-ct the nerds of Amrlcn by seeking for n better America In 1968. That we have a passion for our country and follow the Christian philosophy of the freedom and dignity of man. In 1968 let us be proud of our accomplishment* in America. Remember God is the last stronghold of freedom in our land.
