But in the sunt ot Many years ago I stood onei". wnicn was the more impor morning among the Colorado Rock ies. far up on the Continental Divide. There 1 watched in a mood of mystery and wonder the little trickles of water from springs and melting snows, as they flowed through the brown pine needles at my feet and raced merrily on down the mountain side. I could span those tiny streams with the thumb and little finger of one hand. Yet they told me that this was the beginning of the Col orado River. Just a few miles down the val ley it was already a silvery ribbon of water winding through the meadows and down the western slope. Before that river reached the Pacific Ocean it would provide the water and irrigatibn rights for seven states, carve out the majes ftic formations of the Grand Can 'yon, cause the deserts to blossom and furnish the water supply for cities and towns all along the way. Equally mysterious is the begin ning of the Mississippi River. It is with a sense of amazement that one stands on the St. Louis water front and sees the broad sweep of that stream the big excursion boats tied up at the levee, the long lines of coal barges moving slowly out in the channel, the majestic bridges spanning the Father of Waters between the Il linois and Missouri shores. It makes it difficult to believe that up at the source of the Mis sissippi at Lake Itaska a child can wade across this same river. The first bridge over it is only a split log. Near the place where the tiny little stream flows through the wild rice beds and lily pads there stands a state park monument of polished pine with the words, "Here, 1,475 feet above the ocean, the mighty Mississippi be gins to flow on its winding way 2,552 miles to the Gulf of Mexico." As rivers begin, so all life be gins. The sources are small. The consequences are immeasurable. Who that first saw a young carpenter from Nazareth, speak ing with inspired words and glow ing face to a little group of l: men as they walked along the shores of Galilee, wouid have be lieved that this would develop into the greatest religious movement in history? Today Christian churches, schools, hospitals, preaching and evangelistic centers girdle the en tire globe, as a result of what be gan in that little company of 12 disciples that gathered around Jesus Christ. There is hardly a home or a nation that has not in some way been affected by it. Truly "there is a river whose tant the battles of Napoleon or the babies? Jesus knew the ininort?.ice ol ihe babies. He said. "Let (he chil dren come to me. do not hinder i hem: for to such belongs the king dom of God." We do well to remember this when we see our own children gathering around the supper table or the TV set. What is going on in their little minds? Are they be ginning to think the thoughts ol Gcd, or thoughts only of violence, selfishness, and evil'.' Upon the ar.swer to that question depends a great deal not only of their own destiny, but the fate of tne world. We had best teach them to know their Ribles. to love Christ and the church, and to worship their Maker. For some day these same children will become mighty river of ideas and of power. Either they will make glad the city of God, or else they will bring unspeakable tragedy to the life of mankind. May our Father in heaven for give us if we fail Him in our homes, where the river of time and eternity begin. Prayer: 0 God our Father, help us to appreciate the far-reach ing influences of all that we do or say. We remember the warning of Jesus that in the Judgment we must give account of every idle word that we may have spoken. .May we week Thy approval in all things, to the end that our lives, however humble and obscure, may become a source of blessing to all our fellow men. In Jesus' name. Amen. r i i. n III 4X 'itl " V L IV T,M. Hag. U.t. 't. Wl. 2- "I'm showing Cwen how our electric garbage disposer works!"

(AP) Whafs more disturbing than an interrup tion of thought while engrossed in some literary endeavor'.' Or, in simpler words. Miss Anne Anderson is tired of dashing out of the library every hour to put a nicke! tn the parking meter. Miss Anderson sent a complain ing letter to the public library say ing the parking meter limitation does not permit proper concentra tion while reading. She asked librarian C. R. Gra ham if he couldn't figure out some way to allow readers an uninler rupted train of thought. The library board of trustees told her it couldn't do a thing saying parking .meters were out of its jurisdiction.

Congressional Republicans have pressed this same view upon GOP National Chairman Meade Alcorn. with reports of varying success. here have been some complaints. but most of them think Alcorn's record of consulting with them is improving. for his own part, Alcorn appar ently is finding it a great deal easier under the Persons regime than under Adams to convey his appointment recommendations to Eisenhower. Unlike Adams, Persons has as signed specific responsibilities within his office and has assigned David Kendall as his deputy, to pay personal attenton to patron age matters. Eisenhower told his news con ference Tuesday that no one, in cluding Alcorn, can veto any so backing Labouisse to succeed ICA chief James 11. Smith Jr., who is retiring.

He was arrested Nov. 21, 1!)5B, in the lobby of the Beverly Hills Hotel on a drunk charge. The complaint was changed to disor derly conduct.
