Have You Tried This?
Edward H. Imme. P-Slcr
St. John's Lutheran Church
When the mob came to the Gar
den ol Gethseir.ane t" take J s ; u -
prisoner Peter drew his swoid
and aimed a slashing blow at the
nearest head But. like most peo
ple who are quick to flare up, his
aim was as bad as his judgment.
He only succeeded in cutting off
the ear of Malchus. a servant.
Jesus stretched forth His hand,
touched that ear, and healed it.
Here are two ways of meeting
opposition. Hurting or healing.
The quick flare-up or the gentle
touch.
Jesus showed the better way.
Peter only added resentment and
pain to an already bitter scene.
That’s about all v.e ever accom
plish when we answer one harsh
word with another.
I imagine that whenever Mal
chus thought of Peter after that
nt? rcuieuiutM cu incti i-mm,
whenever he thought of Jesus he
remembered the touch of a heal
ing hand.
Jesus knew that they would
wound Him, even kill Him; but
He also knew the desperate need
that made them wound Him. and
He was determined to give Him
self to take away that need. And
so He willingly gave Himself to
save us from our sin. That is
what made them wound Him. and
that is what makes men hurt one
another today
When His disciples asked,
"Shall we smite with the sword?"
He answered, ‘‘The cup which my
Father hath given me, shall I not
drink it? How else shall the
Scripture be fulfilled?” He might
well have added. “How else shad
these be saved?” But that came
later, when the truth was known,
and the glad gospel was preached
that by His atoning death sin
ners ax-e reconciled to God.
In giving Himself to save us
from our sin He also showed us
how to meet bitterness and oppo
sition. The selfish person, when
hurt, will either hurt back or
draw into a shell of resentment.
The loving person, when hurt,
will seek to know the need that
caused that one to hurt him, and
will give himself to heal that
need.
The next time someone irrita
tes you or hurts your feelings
don’t flare up or strike back, or
draw into a shell of resentment.
Meet it with warmth and friend
liness and understanding and for
giveness .
You will be surprised at the re
sults! Life will become more
pleasant for yourself and your
friends, and you will have more
of them.
Try it and see.

New Scout District
Is Created
The executive board of the
Alaska Council. Boy Scouts of
America recently announced the
creation of a ne v district to be
known as the Westward District.
Because of the unwieldy size of
the Chugach District, of which
Palmer is a member and because
of its growth to a membership of
more than double that of any of
the other three districts it was
decided the new district was
necessary
At a recent meeting of the Chu
gach Council the Rev. James
Austin was reappointed to head
camping and activities committee,
assisted by Ralph Rich of Wasilla,
Bob Bacon and David Brown.
Walter Huntley of Palmer will
be assisting Bob Riseley. organi
zation and extension chairman.
Ben Dupris, district commis
sioner presented names for nom
ination to neighboring commis
sions, including Ed Smith of
Palmer. Emil Ganschow was
nominated as vice chairman of
the Palmer section of the Chu
gach Scout District.
NEW BANK MANAGER
ASSUMES DUTIES
Many people have been getting
acquainted this week with the
Matanuska Valley Bank’s new
manager, Richard M. Jones.
Mr. Jones was also getting ac
quainted with the town—and lik
ing it. Actually, he took over his
new job on Monday, March 3,
but details connected with orien
tation kept him out of the lime
light a good share of the time
last week.
Coming to Alaska is the cul
mination of a ten-year drearn
gained on a fish tender that took
Jones up past the tip of the Kenai
Peninsula into Cook Inlet.
As soon as he decides where he
is going to live his wife, Gladys,
and their three children—Don,
aged 10; Anne, aged 8; and two
year-old Brian—will join him
here in Palmer.
CRAFT CLUB MEETS
The Evening Craft Club met
at the home of Mrs. Harriet Bell
March 10 with eight members
present.
The next regular meeting will
be at the home of Mrs. Esther
Bruckbauer March 24 at 8:00
o’clock. _
COFFEY INSURES
EVERYTHING REMEMBER?
Nearly 60 Attend
Fish Demonstrations
Only 35 persons took advantage
of the two preparation of fi-.li
! demonstrations last Friday, but
they were well rewarded by i
store of information and a shelf
of fish recipes, almost all of which
were prepared by Mrs. Ruby
Browne, home demonstration
agent from Ketchikan.
Norman Wigutoff’s excellent
demonstration of fish preserva
tion was attended by 28 Saturday
afternoon. Both demonstrations
were given in the Northland
Pioneer Grange Hall.
Fish dishes prepared by Mrs.
Browne and later served to those
in attendance were: Baked stuf
fed Hallibut Steaks (sweet pickle
stuffing). Cod Fillets Baked in
Spanish Sauce. Barbecued Hali
but Sticks, Alaska Salmon Nug
gets, Oven Fried Sable Fish,
Broiled Salmon Steaks with
Brown Butter Sauce, and Flaked
Fish Cocktail.
Recipes may be obtained

free speech doesn’t mean that he
has to believe everything that he
hears.
