FROM THE BEGINNING
SOME THOUGHTS ON FREEDOM
Fireworks and festivities will mark this July 4 as never be
fore, yet this 200th anniversary of Independence Day should
also inspire a more thoughtful spirit than usual.
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.

Tour hast
A Church
of England
service on a Sunday morning
in 1776 would have been in
many respects similar to the
twentieth century services of
the American Episcopal Chu
rch. 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.
