meeting were read by Mrs. Howard Thompson, assistant secy. Mrs. Snellenberger read the report of the program planning committee of their January 7th meeting. The 4-H radio program was discussed. It was decided that it would be more desirable for two or three junior leaders to use the first half of the program reporting 4-® news and the second half be given by Individual elubs. The

following adult radio guidance committee was appointed: Mrs. Bill Summe, Silver Lake; Mrs. John Pfahler, Warsaw; and Delford Nelson, Burket. Plans for conducting programs in each township during National 4-H Club Week, March 4-12 were made. Leaders were urged to attend the Rotary 4-H Adult Leaders training school at Warsaw Methodist Church on March 17. In the divided session the aggricultural leaders discussed 4-H sponsoring committees for their local dubs. It was decided that each dub would have such a committee. Enrollment goals for 1950 were discussed. The county goal is 1000 members of which 475 of these are to be agricultural members. Scales for the fair grounds have been purchased and It was decided that the 4-H agriculture clubs in the county would pay tor these and install the scales and place a rack on them. The 4-H and County Fair dates were discussed and the following points made as to changing of the date to an earlier week: The open class superintendents and 4-H leaders could be present at all times instead of at the State Fair. ' More 4-H county exhibits could go to the State Fair. That the dates now conflict with school opening and no 4-H member and agriculture teachers are present on Friday. Be more easy to make entries in 4-H State and National Achievement contests. People would not have to divide there money between school books and clothing, State Fair and county fair. This group also thought it was advisable due to the type of fair building program which has taken place and addition needed at the grounds, and the financial condition of the fair that a small gate admission was advisable. The county 4-H dairy judging contest was discussed which will start at the Broadmoor Farm near Milford on Saturday, Feb. 18 at 8:00 A. M. The home economics leaders discussed enrollment cards and program books. The county home economics judging date was changed to July 13. On March

23 the county standards committees are to meet, these committees are: Clothing - Mrs. Walter Fruit and Mrs. Alva Wolfe; Baking - Mrs. Sam Knoop and Mrs. C. L. McSherry; Food Preparation - Mrs. Wilbur Latimer and Mrs. Herman Miller; Food Preservation - Mrs. Clara Steiner and Mrs. Ross Sittier. It was suggested that at the local achievement programs there should be two judges. One judge to make placings, the other to grade record books. State awards for knitting nylon, ciitiaeauhip, and recreation were discussed. Plans were made for local sponsoring committees. The next adult leaders meeting is scheduled for April 18. ON THE RADIO The following news story was heard recently over radio station WLS, Chicago: Well, the Syracuse-Wawasee Journal is really popping some vest-buttons as it says Syracuse is one of the best-lighted towns in the state of Indiana. That is the verdict upon the completion of the work of the Northern Indiana Public Service Company, of taking out the old street lights and installing new ones all over town, with the addition of several new lights. The town of Syracuse will pay no part of the cost of installing these new lights—but the electric light bill will be larger with the substitution of the more powerful lamps. The crew of workmen for the public service company has been doing some trimming of trees too, and more will be done by town employees, to cut away some of the heavy low-hanging branches that were preventing the best light from the street lamps. How would that be as an improvement in your town? The JOURNAL tells also of another forward step in the community. In an effort to give better fire protection to the people of Turkey Creek township, residing on the east side of Wawasee, and thesfarmers on the east and the southeast side of the township, M. F. Jones, township trustee, has entered into an agreement with the trustee of Sparta township and the Cromwell fire department for any runs they make to Wawasee or adjacent farm homes on that side of the lake. The town of Cromwell is now operating a new fire truck, and they can get to a fire on the east side of Wawasee perhaps some 5 or 10 minutes quicker than can a fire truck from Syracuse. There’s some folks who ought to sleep a little sounder tonight. AUTO FIRE PUT OUT BY SYRACUSE DEPARTMENT Memebers of the Syracuse fire department extinguishel a blaze in the interior of a 1940 Ford coupe at approximately 7:30 o’clock nast Thursday night. The car caught fire at the Pickwick parking lot. The upholstering of the car, owned by Jack Clark, was damaged.

AH aorta at explanations have been given by unsympathetic outsiders. The church (we are told) ia an upper-elass hobby, or a lower-

class opiate; It ia a social chib, it ia a burial society; it panders to pride, or it ia a perverae form of self-tor-ture; it ia kept alive by a wellrun organization. Such explanations do not explain. The truth is at heart

Dr. Foreman

quite simple: The church ia kept alive by faith. What is Christian faith, the faith of the church? A study of the Scripture for this week, or a broader search through the New Testament from end to end, will convince any impartial reader of the falsehood of some of the notions about what Christian faith is. Some have claimed that it is nothing but faith in the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Let the reader try to find this in the New Testament if he can. If you had said this to an early Christian, he would have replied along this line: That is just the problem—how can we become sons of God? How can men achieve brotherhood? Others tell us that faith is belief in a series of doctrines. «. Let the reader search the New Testament and see if he can find there anything about faith in a creed. Sometimes this notion takes another form —that faith originally was a belief that Jesus’ beliefs were true; in other words, that faith is accepting the “religion of Jesus.” Now the church from the beginning believed that Jesus’ thoughts were true thoughts; but faith was never a simple second-hand acceptance of any one’s creed, not even that of Jesus. The faith we find in the New Testament is none of these things. Still less is it faith in the saints, in Mary, or in an “infallible” church. Faith: Not About, But In ... THE FAITH that broke out in glorious light in those early days of the church, and has continued shining down through the centuries, was not belief about anything or anybody, it was belief IN Some One; and that Some One was Jesus Christ There is a simply astonishing variety of ways in which he is spoken of in the New Testament He is Son of Man, he is teacher and healer, he is the first-born of many brothers; he is Priest and Sacrifice, he ia the Propitiation, the Reconciler of men to God; he ia Master and Lord; he 1a the Word—that is, what God has to say to us; he is the Son of God, he sits on the throne of the universe, he will judge every man. To put it quite bluntly, the church believed (and still believes) in a> supernatural Christ and not only tea human Jesus. They believed in him aa a teacher, aa the Teacher indeed; but not merely aa one whose teachings had been interrupted; by an untimely death. They did not “play down” his death, on the contrary they played it up. Christ crucified for ua ta alwiyi strongly ta theta minds, ■ut they were far from leaving hhn aa it were on a crucifix. Any form at Christianity that thinks of Jesus chiefly aa a Christmas baby; or a starry-eyed idealist; or aa a pathetic figure hanging on a crucifix ia a perversion of New Testament ways of thought Everywhere in the center is the Christ who “was dead and is alive forevermore.” • • • There Is No Other A YOUNG MOSLEM who became a Christian and is very happy about it was asked what It was that changed him, for Moslems are hard to change. It was not an argument he said. It-was the lives of some-missionaries in Iran whom he knew. He wanted what they had—lt was aa aimpie aa that And he went an to any this: “Christianity doesn’t have much In theology that Mohammedanism doesn’t have. There to just one thing Christianity has tint wu didn’t have, nor anything like it: Jesus Christ” That is what—that is who wins men today, and that was the secret of the early church, and that is the secret today of the living church everywhere: Christ alive by faith in the lives of those who love him.
