Dear Editors: Asa high school senior, I would like to express two different ideas which are on my mind. The first is concerning a college in Nappanee. I don’t believe this would go over very well, simply because most students planning to go to college, choose one which is away from home bo that they can have their independence. The years they spend in college are trial and error and when they legally become of age then they are more prepared to adapt themselves to the outside world. The other business on my mind is a completely different thing. This concerns our police department. Twice I have had the ocassion to call the police, not for an emergency, but for some information and no one answered the telephone. If my calls would have been emergencies, where would the police be? I have talked to other people about this and

Letters to THE EDITOR

some have said Ihcy have called before >and nobody answered. A policeman told me, when I discussed -this subject with him, that someone is supposed to -be *n the station, or the policeman is supposed to toll the telephone operators how to get hold of them. He went on to say that this is often neglected. I think that f private citizen ought to be hired to answer the phone and be able to get hold of the police when they are needed. I do believe the police in Nappanee are doing a good job on the whole, but maybe this area can use some improvement. Please don’t print my name because of personal reasons, and because I don’t want to get into trouble. Another good thing about winter—you can warm up shoveling snow, but you sure can’t cool off mowing weeds.

LIMTBN MEDITATION Rev. H. L. McCord Jesus told his disciples that the time was lastly approaching when it would be necessary for him to choose a enxls toMl deith if God’s program through life was to continue. Peter, not understanding the mysterious workings of God, took Jesus aside and rebuked him. At .tkk Jesus turned Ms hack to Peter, and said: '‘Peter, you are not looking at things from God's point of view, hat from man's.” (Mdrit 8:33, J. B. Phillips) Yes, the point of view makes a difference. We are on the. Anno Dommini side of the cross. It has been explained to us by the resurrection of Jems Christ from the grave. Note that to the disciples die cross meant death, hat to as it is the symbol of life. To them the cross meant damnation aid decay, hut to ns it means salvation and growth. To the disciples the cross was the wickedness of man asserting itself, but we see through the darkness of that Friday to the goodness of God. To them it was the worst that man could do, but we see through the blackness to the best that God has done for man. To the disciples the cross was sideness and disease and salt in the sores of life, but to us it is wholeness and health and the oil of healing. To them the cross was a hated thing to flee from, but to us it is a place of refuge to flee to. To the disciples the cross was evidence that God had forsaken his own, but we know that there is no greater revelation of his love than in the cross. To them God was acting in a strange way; He was against them. But to us the Cross of Jesus Christ and its following events meant that God is doing something for us that we cannot do for ourselves. To the disciples God was taking from them their most prized possession, but we now know that God was in Christ giving himself to his created creatures. And if this is the way the cross looks from God’s viewpoint, who shall save us as we continue to ignore it? O God, grant us to see with the divine eye of thy spirit. Amen.

At The Library

THE LAST PLANTAGENETS By Thomas B. Costain Thomas Costain has been well known for his historical novels such as "The Black Rose” and “The Moneyman.” Many of them have been best sellers. Mr. Costain has also become a first-rate historian. His book “The Three Edwards” was a magnificent account of three of England’s kings. The newest, “The Last Plantagenets” is really a sequel. This is an amazing period of English history full of intrigue, murder, pagentry. It was the period when the Barons were able to augment the power they had gained under John. The pathetic figure of Richard n starts the book. The son of the Black Prince, he gained the throne when he was ten. So much was expected of him, and he was confronted with so many problems. The final humiliation of this king at the hands of Bolingbroke is attributed mostly to the fact that he wanted peace instead of war, and England wanted war. The book ends with the dramatic story of Richard 111. Portrayed in legend by Shakespeare as a hunchbacked monster, this man, Costain feels, might have been the most maligned in history. Costain even sheds doubt on the story of Richard’s murder of the two princes in the Tower. This is a great book. History well told and able to stir the reader is enough to make it good. But Costain, with tireless research and the combination of great talent and hard work has rendered a history which should have an important spot on the shelves of any library. WA CAN Kl YA The Wa Can Ki Ya Camp Fire group, in charge of assistant leader, Mrs. Ray Worden, met in the Camp Fire Room at West Side Park Pavilion, Monday after school and elected Debbie Mason, president; Betty Wise, vice president; Barbara Kanode, secretary; Joellen Stahly, treasurer; Colleen Walters, Amy Jo Tobias and Pam Masterson, clean up committee, and Judy Walters, scribe.
