S

I am come that they might
have life, and that they might
have it more abundantly.
John 1910.
In this forth-right declaration
our Lord makes plain in unmis'
taxable language His mission ir
the world.
This declaration is in harm
ony with countless other dec
larationS of His. THE son OF
man is come to seek and save the
lost" The son of man came not
to be ministered unto-but to
minister land give His life a ran
som for many.
In thinking of His mission, we
are made aware of four phases
of it.
Cd The purpose of His COM
ing. II am come that they might
have life, and that they might
have it more abundantly".
He came to redeem the world
- to bring life eternal - life
Astounding to the human race.
In Him was life-and the life
was the Light of men" AS many
as received Him-to them gave
He power to become the sons of
Cod.
(2) The nature of this life
Astounding.
In what way do we become
partakers of it? In what does it
consist? The experience into
which we enter is stated in the
scripture in various ways, such
as the new birth, the putting off
by US, of the old man-and the
putting on of the new man., and
of being renewed in the spirit.
To sum it all up-it consists in
the inner harmony of our lives,
and our wills with the Divine
Will.
When we are in complete tune
spiritually-we know the mean
ing of life eternal---life abound
ing. We have an inner witness
of the Spirit.
(3) The scope of His mission.
For whom did Jesus come? Was
it for a select few? Was it for
just a segment of society? Mo-
at all, for our Lord thought not
in terms of a few, but of the
many.
He came to redeem ALLIE
died to save all.
The scope of His salvation was
universal "Whosoever will"
Him that cometh unto me, I will
in no-wise cast OUT. Others set
up barriers against people be-
cause of race, color, and cast
but Jesus never did.
He reached down to every
strata of society-to rich-poor
-Jew-Gentile-and the out
cast of the earth.
His love reached out to all. 1t
still does, and although we may
be sighting Him-passing Him
by, yet His words ring in III
ears, 81 am come that they might
have life, and that they might
have it more abundantly." Are
we ready to follow Him? who is
the way, the Truth-and the life.
John Thompson.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Editors Note - Pfc. Paul I
Wells, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ernes
Wells, Dexter City, wrote thu
following letter to his aunt, Mr.
Grace Radcliffe, while on thu
front lines in Korea. He has beer
in the service since last summer
At one time, there were five
boys from his family in the serv,
ice at the same time, but two OF
the Wells brothers have beer
discharged. Pfc. Wells address is

Dear Aunt Grace:
How are you all? I hope every
thing is OK with you out on the
ridge. | bet you are getting
ready to start blowing any day.
l don't have much time to write
or I would drop a line to more
of the folks back home.
l am taking it easy for a couple
| of days but I still have a job to
do. l am on top of a mountain
in a bunker, the OP bunker. The
big brass went down for a
couple of days, so I am here,
operating the radio and the tele-
phone, being ready to run a mes
sage out to the troops twenty
four hours a day. | can sleep and
the radio wakes me up, when it
comes On. | put the receiver on
the bed with me and sleep with
all my clothes on, except my
steel helmet and coat.
Major Mann was staying here
for a while, SO he left me lots of
good eats. Today was the first
good meal that l have had in a
long time. Maybe it was because
I stewed it up myself. I made a
can of coffee for the tank crew
and they sure appreciated it.
This is quite an experience for
me since l have been going on
patrol. We operate by working at
night. then report in the morn
ing. The infantry takes over the
next day and believe me, it takes
a lot of courage to go out on
patrol over the mountains. They
are covered with snow and ice
and in places, if a fellow would
happen to slip, he would be a
conner.
These mountains are straight
up and down, besides being
covered with enemy soldiers.
This is one thing l will never
forget. / know what my older
brothers have done ... they have
served their hitch in hell.
The spring drive may break in
a month or so, so / hope they get
this thing over with, so we can
all go home.
This is the first time l have
ever written a letter on the
front lines. The enemy is about
300 yards from here. / better
close and get busy.
So long and take care of your
self.
Your nephew,
Paul L. Wells

State Route 564
Caldwell, Ohio

Dear Sir:
The veracity of your editorial
of Feb. 7, "the Departments
Worst-State Route 564," can not
be doubted and will not be dis
puted by any one who must
travel it. .
If your headline, "The Depart
ment's Worst" is an eXaggera-
ton, the department should
blush with shame. The road in
question is not a concern for
Just this time of the year, but is
a year-round headache to those
who live along this highway.
There are any number of
folks who have no access to town
except to travel Route 564 from
Olive, Enoch, jefferson, Stock,
and Elk townships. These are
farm folks, who market their
products of the farm to local
markets.
Much of this highway was paid
for with sizeable sums of money
by farmers adjoining it. 1t is a
one-lane road with the BERN in
very poor condition. This has
been surveyed several times, but
no action taken to complete the
work.
AS for pleasure, there is none
for any one who has no other
way out, or are we along Route
564 the forgotten people? Not so,
when il comes to paying taxes.
