The 55 men who signed the Declaration of Independence were all too aware of the “toil and blood and treasure it will cost to maintain this Declaration and support and defend these States," but it is easy for us to forget the two centuries of work and sacrifice which have kept our rights secure And when we lose sight of the past, all too often we become care less with our freedoms, and willing to exchange them for the illusory hope of government-created security. This is a danger ous mistake, for our national well-being stems from freedom from constraints by government There is nothing to be gained and much to be lost by turning to government for solutions to all problems. On July 4 and througnout this year let us make a special effort to remember that the preservation of freedom is the responsibility of each of us. and let us instill this understanding in our children The strength of our liberties lies not so much in our arms as in the value we place on freedom, and this strength can and must be renewed in us from time to time, and passed on to each succeeding generation.

The fundamental pattern of the services closely re sembles that in use today, and many of the words are the same. The most striking difference would he that the whole Sunday morning ser vice would also have included Holy Communion and the Litany, as well as Daily Morning Prayer, and with the forty-five minute sermon, would have lasted at least two hours. Devotional Service Held Each Wed. Think you're hearing bells Wednesday mornings about 10:00? Well, you are. Every Wednesday morning the Nyssa United Methodist Church is having s fifteen minute Devotional Service This is open to the entire community: all denomina tions welcomed and invited! Rather thfen take a coffee break. this nest Wednesday, try a "God-break". Mr. and Mrs. William Sch‘r«man and their son Richard (Dick) of Gardena. California returned June 22. from a two-weeks tour of the Hiatorical Eastern United States. They were guests of their nephew and family who live in Morris Plains. New Jersey. Among their many visi tations to places where our Nation was born were: the Capitol, the Statue of Liberty, who is a beautiful and inspiring lady; Philadelphia where the Liberty Bell finally rests; Arlington Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and were present at the time of the changing of the guard; New York City and the famous Central Park, and many more places. In all. seven states were covered Mrs Frederick Le Clair was navigator during the weekdays and Dick was the driver. Weekends, Mr. LeClair was the driver, so no time was lost. The Schiremans recom mend that travelers "See America First" before taking off for foreign countries. Our history books do not tell us but bare facts and not all of them, so school children have only an unrealistic concept of our Beginnings. THANK YOU I R 98* Fly Rod & Reel Combo. Rog.
