Girl Scouts Seek
Toys for Annual
Xmas Work Shop
Girl Scouts of Troop 33 are
again this year going to repair
toys to be distributed at Christ
mas. So that they may get their
repair shop under way early
enough to complete their project
they are asking that persons hav
ing toys they wish to donate do
so as soon as possible. Large toys,
too bulky to handle, will be call
ed for. Persons having clothing
and toys may leave them at the
Keith Lovejoy residence or at
the office of U- S. Commissioner
Dorothy Saxton. The girls have
a number of dolls for which
wardrobes are needed. Interest
ed persons may pick up dolls
from Mrs. Lovejoy or Mrs. Sax
ton and have the fun of creating
ensembles for them. Collection
boxes will be placed in stores
in Palmer later in the year, but
the girls are hoping to get an
ample supply of toys immediate
ly so they may begin their time
consuming project right away.

Is the Christian way the only
way? Are there other ways equal
! to the Christian way? Cannot peo
ple find God through other ways?
What about people who sincerely
follow other faiths? Are they
Christian? Are they lost?
Thomas and Philip may have
had their doubts but they were
honest doubts, their ignorance
included a desire to be taught.
Thomas asks about “The Way"
and “The End.” Jesus answers
both, “I am the Way” and “The
Father is the end” The divine
way is written in the nature of
reality. There is a divine way to
everything. We are free to make
our choices—but not free to
choose the results of our choices.
The results are in hands other
than our own. At the bottom of
a liquor price list in a dining car
I read, asperin, 25c. Highway
roadsides are commonly littered
! with discarded beer cans and bot
tles. Those discarded cans and
bottles are mute evidence of the
discarded standards and princi
ples in lives.
The Christian Way is tire way
to do everything. The way to
think feel and act. The Christian
way is not a way imposed upon
us but is the very nature of life.
The Christian way is not a way
among ways to take it or leave
it. It is “The Way”. (Col. 2:9
Moffaitt) “It is in Christ that the
entire fullness of deity has set
tled bodily it is in Him that you
reach your full life”.
As we discuss this matter of
Jesus as the way and not a way
among ways we must get hold of
the fact that He did not come to
bring a religion but to be Reli
| gion. He didn’t come to bring a
set of truths, but to be THE
TRUTH. He didn’t come to tell
us about life, but to be THE
LIFE. He didn’t come to show us
the way, but to be “THE WAY.”
Jesus is the only way, all other
ways are ways that “SEEM”
right unto man. Wouldn’t you
choose to follow the only way?*
Palmer Church of God!

There's no way to buy freedom when
we want it. Only through assuming our
responsibilities as individuals can we
develop—or even maintain—the free
doms we have.
One of those responsibilities is to vote
for those individuals and ideas in which
we believe. We shall be called upon to
assume again that responsibility in a
* few days.
We all have our own slate of candi
dates and ideas. Some of our. neighbors
have the same ones, others differ. But
the important thing is not that we agree
or disagree, but that we all express our
views at die ballot box.
• We believe that tiiis is essential for
democracy to thrive. We have based the
organization of our rural electric system
on that belief. The votes of our members
set the policies of this locally-owned,
locally-controlled rural electric system.
To that one principle we attribute our
,*• success as a tax-paying local business
enterprise. To that same principle we
attribute the success of our nation.
, ' Failure of our members to assume
their responsibilities would weaken our
business, just as surely as failure of all
of us in our responsibilities as citizens
would weaken our democratic nation.
