WE'D LIKE TO KNOW HOW YOU Tift - FILL THIS OUT The Elkhart Truth, at the request of the Elkhart Jaycees, recently printed a ballot in which they asked opinions on many phases of activities in the City. We’ve revised some of this and hope that our readers will take the time to fill them out. They will give our various service organisations and city officers an idea of what people feel about many aspects of Nappanee. We’ve left out two obvious subjects the sewers and the streets because the improvement of the one has affected the other. ifi* sI f % 1. Water I I I I- - Garbage Collection lit! 3. Gas lilt 4.

LBHTEN MEDITATION * By Rev. William Heimach Wednesday, March 7th, marked the beginning of the Christian Lenten Season. This day, called Ash Wednesday, and the entire period of Lent, is observed outwardly in different ways by various parts of the Christian community of. denominations. Some have placed upon their foreheads, by their clergy man, a dab of ashes in order to remind them of human frailty and temporality. “Dust thou art, and to dust thou shalt return.” Some observe all of Lent in this outward fashion, sacrificing or giving up some particular food or habit. Others prefer to observe the Lenten Season without any outward signs at all, concentrating only upon the inward spiritual attitudes. Rut regardless of the modes or methods of observing Lent, all Christians are in profound agreement as to its basic meaning. Lent is that period of time leading up to the triumphant resurrection of Jesus Christ. How we prepare ourselves for this is not nearly so important as the fact that we are prepared. It is this victory of our Lord which has given men the strength to bear their own crosses in life with the abiding hope and faith that they will also find an ultimate victory. Citizens of Nappanee have been made keenly aware of what it means to carry a cross during the recent and continuing strike. A

small town is of necessity a rather interdependent society- When one suffers, all suffer; when one rejoices, all rejoice. let us join in praying and working during this Lenten Season that our community share in the resurrection reality. That out of our bitterness might come harmony, that out of our disagreements might come unity, that out of our pessimism might come hope. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ proved that love is greater than hate; that good is greater than evil; and that right is greater than wrong. May this Lenten Season bring to Nappanee this same message, and having heard the message ... let us put it into practice. When human muscles provided most of the world’s power, man needed one kind of recreation: now, with machinery doing some 96% of the world’s work, his recreational needs have changed radically. The use of these leisure hours of 1900-1970 will influence the next hundred years of our national life.
