They will see a record of every cent paid in and by whom; every bit of labor turned in and the amount; every cent paid out by check, when and to whom. This isnt an opinion. I am certain that if you come from Huntington or Moore, and you make two trips and keep track of the hours coming and going and the time inspecting the books, you will not have spent one tenth of the time Mr. Huntington has spent going to meetings, going out collecting and keeping the books and he has never had one cent of pay.

It takes three properly spaced Salk shots to set up maximum immunity. If you are under 40, dont wait until disaster strikes. Vaccinate at the earliest opportunity. Since most everyone in this, day and age is business minded, let us appeal to your business sense. If you had invested some money in a small business and expected to get some returns, you would at least have some interest in that business. You would take your trade there, and encourage your neighbors to do likewise. Wouldnt the same philosophy work on the problem of cancer and polio control? If you do not support the program, your investment will be lost entirely, and you will receive no returns from it whatever. However, by supporting your investment, by getting vaccinated for polio and by getting medical checkups regularly for cancer, you will receive large dividends on your investment. Dont put it off until tomorrow. Today is the time to mak-- ' up your mind, and do something about it. polio-susceptib- Serving as National Chairman is Cola G. Parker, Director of the Kimberly-Clar- k Corporation, and Chairman of the Board of Directors, the National Association of Manufacturers, who, in accepting this important post, had this to say: Back in 1900, fewer than 40 percent of Americans were church members. By the end of the 30s, this figure had risen to comprise half of our people. Now, church membership amounts to 60 percent of our mounting population. Such a surge in spiritual impetus can be of limitless benefit to our country, as our growing millions identify themselves more closely with, the moral teachings of the church. This calls for the 'kind 'of Conviction which comes with knowledge. In providing such knowledge, the Sunday School is a vital source of spiritual strength." No less an authority than F. B. I. Director J. Edgar Hoover has again gone on record as endorsing the nations Sunday Schbols as a Source of Spiritual Strength. In a letter addressed to Cola G. Parker, National Chairman for Sunday School Week, Mr. Hoover wrote: The great and vital concept of government, which the Founding Fathers, shaped and moulded, was based upon an indomitable and belief in God. Those men, who created the' channels in which. Americas future was to flow, believed that, with Gods help, 9. r" :; -- Ml jii I r-'--i YU i ,?

In this Atomic Age we need more than ever before, the moral strength which stems only from homes and communities. If we are to preserve the spiritual values which have sustained our country throughout its history, the bulwark of sound religious training is vital. It is within the power of the Sunday School to provide such a bulwark. National Sunday School Week offers the opportunity to renew our dedication to this objective. Spiritual leaders, both clergy and laymen, are unanimous in agreeing with F. B. I.s Director Hoover that the Sunday School is the agency which above all others can help combat juvenile delinquency and give the youth of America the spiritual undergirding so essential to their success and happiness with resultant benefit to the nation as a whole. But ' while the Sunday School is popularly considered as an instrument principally for the religious education of our youngsters, it also does play an important role in the adult life of the nation's communities. It can play a much more important role, which it is the hope of the Laymens National Committee will be sparked during National Sunday School Week, H. Boyd Magill, Editor April of the Dorchester Eagle-Recorweekly newspaper published at St. Gorge, South Carolina, wrote an editorial for his March 14 issue entitled: ' A Powerful Influence For Good." Editor Magill, taking note of the large attendance of men at a Bible Class in his community, made the following apt AN ANNUAL REPORT FROM Rio Grandes payroll in le i the individual was capable of of St. George men to become active and enthusiastic members of a Bible Class, a force has been set in motion that could change the history of St. George yes, of the county, too. Improved spiritual life of such a large percentage of men In this community will result in a better moral tone for the whole area, which will reach out to other communities. Not only will business be conducted on a higher plane, but a decided improvement in the political life will be in evidence. S. I. DENVER & RIO GRANDE WESTERN RAILROAD |
