No one is compelled to join a cooperative, and no one is prevented from joining in a genuine co operative. Cooperatives are purely democratic in principle. Dictators are hard on cooperatives—One of the world's greatest cooperative movements was destroyed when Hitler came to power in Germany. Cooperative leaders were stoned, some killed and many jailed when Mussolini took over the state in Italy. Coopera tives in Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland have been destroyed or taken over by the Nazis—leaving a physical structure but eliminat ing democratic control by consumers—the heart of the cooperative movement. «pO D THE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ. Scientist, on Sunday, June 18. The Golden Text was, "The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower" <Ps. 18:2). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance” (Ps. 81, 32). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following correlative passages from thg Christian Science text book, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures’’ by Mary Baker Eddy: “Christians rejoice in secret beauty and bounty, hidden from the world, but known to God. Self- forgetfulness, purity, and affection are constant prayers. Practice not profession, understanding not be lief, gain the ear and right hand of omnipotence and they assuredly call down infinite blessings" (p.15).

O Y STER S SHRIM P SA R D IN E S * By MRS. JOE UDEY Another thrilling evening was spent at the Townsend carnival dance last Saturday in Columbia hall. A set of dish towels were sold to Fred Lenz, which netted the club 14.00, which also went into the delegates' fund. Many other people are donat ing to this fund, for which the mem bers are very thankful. Many different colors of paper hats were given away, which the crowd wore throughout the evening. A balloon blowing contest was also part of the enjoyment. The one who blew up his balloon first won an all day sucker for a prize, and with the crowd participating in throwing col ored confetti, completed a full even ing of joy. 2c MATCHES t t .
