CALCIUM
The Great Human
Need

People of all ages need calcium
and few today get a sufficient
amount Of it for the greatest of
most abundant health.
The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food
the greater the need for more of
dairy products in the regular every
day diet of all of US.
Fresh fluid pasteurized milk
daily in some form should be used,
either as a beverage or in cooked
food.

Border Methodist Church News:
BY CHARLES ALIEN


A friendly wistful congregation
gathered for Palm Sunday morning,
waving their palms and making ap-
propriate symbols. especially the
cross. In his message ride On
In Majesty" Rev. Robert w. KEEL
ley, the minister, stated that the
majesty of Jesus was not centered
in the ill-prepared triumphal entry
but rather in the character, ulti-
mate devotion and self-giving of
the Galilean prophet, Jesus the
Lord. The congregation was cleo
trifed by the simple uncoerced COM
mitment by Mary Lee of her life
to the Christ and Christian service.
The communion lifted US into a new
sense of oneness with our Savior.
The Lenten self denial banks are
to be turned in Easter Sunday as
an expression of self-sacrifice. The
campaign for the new parsonage
will be launched on Easter Sunday
morning. All pledges are to be
turned in and payments made. Let
US rejoice with our risen Lord in
the newness of Easter morning.
