FLAG DAYS!
At one time or another we’ve all heard or voiced complaints
about the meager display of Old Glory on national holidays.
More often than not the outcry is justified. Many folks are
just too darned lazy to raise the Stars and Stripes. Others
take advantage of the holiday to travel away from home and
fear they will not return until after dark and in time to lower
the flag.
Many businesses are closed on legal holidays and it is an
inconvenience for the proprietor to go down to the place of
business to put up the flag in the morning and then return to lower
it in the evening.
’Down in Salem, Arkansas, the Jaycees have come up with a
wonderful solution to the problem — a solution so simple
and logical that it has added a great deal to the community’s
business district and to the Jaycees’ own image as community
leaders.
The Salem Jaycees furnish a flag to any business that requests
one. The members put up the flag on holidays, take them down in
the evening, and store them until the next holiday. The only
exception is in the case of inclement weather. The Jaycee
program includes 16 holidays a year; the total cost is a mere
>10 per year per flag.
The project reached its high point on Labor Day, when 48
flags were raised over Salem. Since then, six more businesses
have requested the service.
Now the Jaycees have undertaken to offer the same service
to homeowners. They've set a goal of 75 flags for Thanksgiving
Day.
Can you imagine the impression the casual traveler got
when he drove through Salem on Labor Day?
But never mind the out-of-towner. Imagine the pride of the
businessmen in Salem.

Ì SEEDS FROM
VTHE SOWER
J
By Michael A. Guido, Metter, Georgia
A boy desired to draw a
picture of the Lord, but gave up.
“Why?” asked the teacher.
“Because,” he answered, “I
could not make Him beautiful
enough.”
One of the inspired writers
of the Bible considered Him
beautiful, for he said in Psalm
27:4, “One thing have I desired
of the Lord, that will I seek
after; that I may . . . behold
the beauty of the Lord."
From any place from which
the Lord is looked upon, “He
is altogether lovely.” This is
not true of any other person.
“All other greatness has been
marred by littleness,” obser
ved one of old; “all other wis
dom has been flawed by folly,
all other goodness has been
tainted by imperfection; Jesus
Christ remains the only Being of
Whom, without grossflattery.it
could be asserted, ‘He is alto
gether lovely’.”
After surgery, one who was
born blind, was led out of doors,
and his eyes were uncovered.
When he saw the earth and the
sky for the first time, he cried,
“Mother, why didn’t you tell me
it was so beautiful?” “I tried,
son,” she sobbed, “but you
could not understand.”
The Bible extols the beauty
of the Lord, but man must eye
it. To behold Him is to see His
beauty and to believe in Him.
There is life for a look at the
Lord.
It was reported in a news
paper that a leading man in the
city had fallen and brought dis
grace to Christ and the church.
He was described as “having
been an active church mem
ber.’’
That might have been his
trouble. He was too active. He
was working when he should have
been waiting on the Lord and
His Word. It is written in Psalm
27:14, “Wait on the Lord: be
of good courage, and He shall
strengthen thine heart.”
Strange, is it not, that we will
do anything but wait? We will
walk, work, war, witness —
anything but “wait on the Lord.”
But let us remember that it is

;
only as we wait on the Lord
that He will strengthen our
hearts.
Strength belongs to the Lord.
There is no despair too deep for
Him to deliver from, no prob
lem too profound for Him to
penetrate, no sin too strong for
Him to subdue. There is no
limit to His strength, and His
strength is at our disposal. But
we must wait on Him, and then
we will find that we can do
everything there is to do with
the help of the Lord Who gives
us the strength and power.
Yesterday I saw a sign that
read, “Repairing done while
you wait.” Are you in need of
repairing? “Wait on the Lord,
and He shall strengthen thine
heart.”

By so doing, you will permit

Volkswagen announces automatic.
Better late than never.
The Volkswagen Squareback and the Volks
wagen Fastback are now available with a fully
automatic transmission.
So now you can drive a Volkswagen and not
even know you're driving a Volkswagen.
Except for a few reminders.
like the 25 miles you get to a gallon of regular
gas. The oil you still take by the pint. And the time
ond money you don't spend on anti-freeze.
Of course, the new automatic is strictly op
tional. Just like on most other cars.
But we've got something no other car offers
even os on option. Electronic fuel injection.
And it's as standard as the electric clock, electric
rear window defroster, 49-position front seats,
front disc brakes and wall-to-wall carpeting.
All of which is enough to make you forget it's a
Volkswagen all over again.
