The Christiun
Church
BY Rev. Marshall L. Shepard
For the NNPA News Service

The Ministers Wives have a
very fine organization that crosses
denominational and sectional lines.
Though it is very young, it prom
ises to be not only a source Of
help and strength. for the members
of the group, but also it promises
a broad service for the churches.
It was my privilege to preach a
sermon to this group not long ago,
and it was very tickliSh propo-
sition with my own wife in the
audience, However, was able to
come through with flying colors
because l stuck closely to the
teachings of the scriptures. z.
We must remember that min
listers wives are individuals with
ell of the differences that are
common to individuals. Churches
are often unfair in expecting the
minister's wife to conform to a
stereotyped role. Not all of them
are capable of being leaders in
the work Of the church. Not all
of them can sing in the choir or
even teach in the Sunday School.
The primary job of the minis
ter's wife is to be a wife in the
truest sense of the word and in
the church to follow whatever en-
deavor is best suited to her train
ing, fitness and aptitude.
I quoted from the writing ct
the apostle Peter in my discourse,
and 1 used him rather than Paul
because there is some question as
to whether the famous apostle
E'aul was ever married, and it is
generally accepted that Peter had
a wife.
And I used the translation that
was done by woman. The New
Century Testament in Modern
English, translated by Helen Bar
rett Montgomery, and I closed
with her estimate of a wife's best
ornament:
In the same way you wives must
be submissive to your own hus'
bands; so that if some of them
will not believe the message, they
may apart from the message be
won over by the behavior of theil
wives, when they see how pure
and reverend you are.
"Your adornment ought not tc
be the outward adornment Of
plated hair and golden jewels an6
the wearing of beautiful dresses
but rather that hidden personality
of the heart, the imperishablt
ornament Of a quiet and gentle
spirit, which in the sight of Coz
is indeed precious. For in this wa!
in the olden time the holy wome1
also, who put their trust in God
used to adorn themselves. The!
were ever in submission to thei'
own husbands; thus, for example
Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling
him Lord. And you are daughter
of Sarah, if you do what is right
and permit nothing to make yo'
afraid"

Two Convicted
For Selling Dope

I
prison and one of twentw-five
years to life were imposed last
Friday on the first defendants con.
victed of selling dope to minol
under a new Illinois law which
provides a maximum of life .impri.
sonment for such sales. The law
also makes dope selling to adults
a felony.
George Gilbreath, so, was SEN
fenced to twenty-five years to life
by Judge Daniel A. Covelh in
Criminal Court. Homer Stiggers,
%, and Bennie Randle, %, re-
ceived the other sentences from
Judge Wendell E. Green.
The three colored men were con-
victed of selling two heorin cap
sules for So to Philip Petress, Is,
6 ward of Family Court.
The sale occurred on May 4 =
one day after the new law was
signed by Governor Adlai Steven
son = and was witnessed by Ju-
venile Officer Claude Kilmer, who
arrested Stiggers when the dope
delivery was made.
Assistant States Attorney James
Condor and Sgt. Charles Pierson
seized Randle, who named Gil
breath as his dope source. Randle
pleaded guilty on arraignment be-
fore Judge Green, and Stiggers
was found guilty. Judge Green
withheld sentence until after the
two had testified against Gilbreath
i'll his trial last Thursday before
Judge Coveli. Petress also testified.
"ThiS is the first time in my
career that I have sentenced a
fellow man., said Judge Coveli,
who was elected June 5 and be-
gan his duties in Criminal Court
June 18. II lay awake half the
night thinking about it. The sale
of narcotics i. makes thieves
killers and prostitutes of its vic
Tins"
Judge Green said he cut ten
years off the minimum sentence OF
lStiggers and Randle because they
testified against Gilbreath.

gayest periods in Washington So

about 1922 to 1882. 1t was during
that period that the What-Good-

giving bizarre affairs = closed par
ties and costume dances - and the
i fraternities, sororities and exclu-
sive clubs We'd with each other in
| having at their dances big-name
bands and costly decorations. :.
| The Howard-Lincoln football
game each Thanksgiving was the
big sporting and social event of
the. year. Old grads came from as
far away as California, and there
were houseguests, and cabaret and
breakfast parties added to the
festivities.
For all of these gala affairs,
the girls had to have escorts, and
a great many of the escorts were
found among students in the Ho-
ward University Medical School.
They are all graduated and prac-
ticing now, and most of them are
happily married, Notwithstanding

a Broadway dancer than doctor.
Wilbur, with Tom Williston, wrote
a musical show during their school
DAYS. He interned at Mercy Hos
pital, Philadelphia, along with Jack
Smith and Buster Cornelius, mar
ried Charlotte West, a local girl,

 Pians Chris*mas Tre0f

Nineteen parents, one of whom was Mir Frampton, who is also grade school principal, attended the P-TA meeting Wednesday night in the high school. No teachers were pres ent except MT. Carlson, school superintendent.
 Discussion of the continuance or disbanding of the organiza- ton was left in abeyance until December meeting The group decided to proceed with plans for the annual Christmas treat for scnoci and pre-school chill dren Enough is in the fund to carry on this project without as sistance from other civic groups, it was reported.
 A first aid room will be fur nished in the school building by the group. Mrs. LaPreal Bic, public health nurse, was instruct ed to purchase chairs, table, lamp and bedding, including mattresses for two cots to be placed in the room for use by the teachers and children who need attention during school hours.
 Mrs. Faulkner, Mrs. Mattson and Mrs. LoZi2r were appointed as a committee to contact all parents new in the city to inter est them in furthering the work of P-TA.

CITY PLANS FOR NEW EIICEI ;SCHO0L. }.

Resolutions passed by both the School Board and City Council this week started the ball rolling to make application for Alaska Public Works participation in the building of a new high school for Seward.
 The rapid increase in school population has already forced the school facilities beyond their limit" Carl R. Carlson, superin- tendent of Seward schools, stated to the Council. The basements of the Methodist and Episcopal Churches are now being used for classrooms at cost of $4O0 per month to the city. By next year at least one more, if not two, additional classrooms will be necessary to accommodate the increased enrolment.
 It seems entirely certain that the city's share of the Territorial tobacco tax monies will amortise
 
 the cost of the new building over a period of 70 years.
 Thomas B. Bourne Associates, a firm of architects and en- gineers, has agreed to process the application and furnish de tailed plans with cost estimates to be included in the applica- tion. This will be done without cost or obligation to the city.
 The School Board discussed requirements and plans with the architect this week to speed up negotiations with the hope that construction can start by the end of next year or early in 1853.

IMPORTANT MAIL EXPECTED SATURDAY TOP
 SEWARD BOxHOLDERS

Mrs. Kay Ling, Seward Chair man for the Christmas Seals campaign, said today that the new 1851 seals will go in the mail this Saturday, thus offici- ally opening the drive for '51- '52.

 Last year, the campaign was highly successful here, with Sew ard turning in one. of the largest contributions per capita of any city in Alaska, she said.

Kirkpatrick end
 Johnson Report To Council on Leuque

The city council heard a re- port Monday night from Mil dred Kirkpatrick and Council man Colonel C. E. Johnson on their visit to the first annual convention of the A l a k II League of Cities.
 Except for being stranded by bad weather the two reported complete satisfaction with the trip. Twenty-seven items of pro- posed legislation for the bene- fit of Alaska cities were passed by the League and will be pre- pared for passage by the next Legislature. Alth tough the League was in its infancy at the time of the last bienniel meeting of the Territorial Leg iSlature, 10 of the 14 items pro- posed by the League at that time were enacted into law.
 Among proposed measures which met with the greatest ap- proyal were the study of em- ployees compensation insurance, compulsory examination for au- tomobile drivers license, man. datory automobile liability in surance, and permission to col lect personal property tax at the time of licensing.
 The League also proposes standard building and inspection codes, including plumbing and boiler codes. Territorial inspec- ton of meats, and of weights and measures will be urged on the next Legislature
 Paving of arterial highways through municipalities is being studied by the executive secre- tary and executive board, as well as some method of plannin $ control on areas outlying in corporated towns.
 The League will ask more equitable distribution of the fuel tax, and the clarification of the sales tax law.
 Aside from the delegates from the five member cities of the League, the Alaskan Command was represented by Col. Clausen and Col. Stuart, representing General Kepner and General Cunningham. Rear A d m r l E. A. Cruise, Commandant 17th Naval District, Capt. R. C. Erik ner, commanding officer Kodiak Naval Station, and c. P.
