Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is a friendly handclasp, small talk on a front porch, friends in for dinner. Peace is a birthday party, a Christmas tree, an Easter service in a white church. Peace is telling someone where the Smiths live, laugh ing at a joke, asking a neighbor what you can do when there's sickness in his house. Peace is people helping instead of hurting one another, trusting instead of suspecting, tolerafing instead of hating. " Peace is forgetfulness of creed and color. It's meeting on equal terms. It's honoring a man for what he is instead of defaming him for what he isn't. This is peace. And until we have this, we won't have real peace - the feeling in our hearts that all is right once more. Right now, we can make a good start to wards this goal. For, right now, in our local community campaign, we have the chance to help our neighbor. To help him regardless of who he is or how he worships. To act to gether'in mutual trust and confidence. And this is democracy in its finest expres sion. This is part of all we are fighting for. This is what you help to bring about when you contribute to the local community fund. Make your contribution today-and make it as big as your heart!
