Someone has said that educa ton
is the foundation of the state. 1t is.
The state rests on the education of
it's youth, but to an almost greater
degree the state rests on the reli-
gious and moral well-being of its
adults.
The really great things of today
are the unseen things. The powerful
influences of our daily life are those
we do not see. The church exempli-
flies these unseen influences. The
church stands for the best: 1t calls
out the best in all, and it matters not
to what denomination we flock. for
they are all founded on the rock

stands for God, for God is good, and
our appeal today Is for all citizens
Of Bingham county to support in the
coming years the church which they
are attending, of which they are
members. The churches Of Bingham
county are worthy of all the support
we can give them. Let us commence
the New Year with a renewed de-
termination to support our churches.
