Make Life Beautiful "a.
James w. Sullivan

We have come to the place in
our way of life where the roads
cross. The road we take will de-
termine where we are going. 1t
may be the road that leads US to
the Truth. The fate of following
this road is now being decided
by those we have elected to the
responsible offices just recently.
Let us pause here and review
a very important decision that
made America strong, progress
i've and a leader of nations today.
In our constitution, earnest men
have given their individual diff
erences and private interests for
the good of all. They. raised the
hopes for unity. Here reigns love
and mutual agreement for a more
abundant life,s
In these words, 'We, the people
of the United States, in order
to form a more perfect union,
establish justice, insure tran
guilty, promote the general well
fare and secure the blessings of
liberty to ourselves and our post
Gritty, do ordain and establish
this constitution for the United
States of America"
We have caused to be formed
the most important cause in his
tory. We have recognized our
need for unity. We cannot live
alone. We must be a society with
a common interest in one an
other for to join a society is to
enlarge the range of ones per-
sonality. This will help make
freedom real for the world.
Free individuals must unite
their energies in cooperation to
reach the greater goals of human
success that keep urging us on.

Circuit Rides Again
BY EVELYN WEAVER

Yes, we are on our way?
Where to? What When? Why?
It's different too! 1t won't be but
three weeks now until we get
together once again for our
Church and Rural Life Institute.
Perhaps we might even call it as
some counties do, the Town and
Country Church Institute. We'd
nesday, March 4, answers the
question when and what.
Where to? It's Caldwell Meth
odist church again. Maybe next
year, another church might like
to act as host. Our morning ses-
sion will be in the basement of
the church. The afternoon will
be upstairs in the sanctuary and
the youth section this year will
be downstairs again.
Some of you are asking why
should we have an Institute and
really what does it accomplish.
| do not believe any Of us can
answer the latter; but l do think
that in democracy, it is essen
tial that ordinary folks like you
and l determine the destiny of
our own county - that we think
together regardless of denomina-
tional ties.
Our Institute will be different
in two respects. In the morning,
ke are going to break up into
discussion or seminar groups.
Our leaders are representing diff
ferent denominations, and, l am
hoping that those present will
also represent other denomina-
tons than that of Methodist. 1t
was the Methodists who severely
criticized our Institute last year
because we did not bring in 9TH
er church groups. After all, do
we not all face the same con-
Germs?
Russell Hoy will be with us
again this year. We are always
grateful to him that he can take
out time to help us think togeth-
er and to challenge us into better
all-round Christian living.
Our youth section of this In
stitute is something new this
year. A young minister from
around Coshocton will speak to
us and lead panel of youth on
Does the church meet the needs
of youth today?" We are hoping
to make this youth section an in
terdenominational youth rally.
Panel members will represent
other denominations. What do
you say young people? Isn't it
time now to think and act to-
gether?
A simple QUESTIONABLE is being
sent out to as many ministers as
| have their names. / would very
much appreciate all of you filling
this out and returning it to me
so that l might tabulate the re-
suits within the next two weeks.
Let us remember, ''1f king
dom is divided against itself, that
kingdom cannot stand. And if a
house is divided against itself,
that house will not be able to
stand"

THE JOURNAL MAIL BAG

Dear Editor:
have been thinking Can un-
usual thing to do these days. and
the following interesting and
strange facts happened to come to
my mind.
Since the first Republican
president, Quaker, was elected,
there has been l3 Republican
presidents up to the time of
Eisenhower's election, an un-
lucky number. These presidents
served a total of 56 years, or, if
equally divided between them,
one term and about one third
each.
Only one Republican president
served two full terms. That was
Gen. U. S. Grant, Civil War hero.
Four served less than a term,
Johnson, Garfield, Arthur and
Harding,
Four served just one term each,
Hayes, Harrison, Taft and Hoov-
er. Four served more than one
term but not two full terms, Lin
coin, Mckinley, T. Roosevelt and
Coolidge.
1t is up to Eisenhower, World
War II hero, to break that Re-
publican link" and serve two
full terms and no more, thanks.
Ohio certainly Jared well. 1t
furnished six of the whole num-
Der of Republican presidents up
to Eisenhower and we almost
have a half interest in the seven
tn, B. Harrison, who was born
and raised in Ohio but was elect
ed from Indiana.
Now let us look at the Demo-
cratic side OF the picture. They
have done a little better Cor have
they?) in time of holding office.
There have been four Demo-
cratic presidents in this same
period and they have served a
total of SO years or an average of
nine years each. That would be
two full terms and one year more
for each.
Cleveland served eight years,
F. D. Roosevelt served more than
IL years too long.

"OHIO"

One hundred years plus fifty more
Since she given birth
When from the wilderness was carved
The best state this earth
She joined the brood of family states
Helped make what we are,
And in our nations flag you'll see
She's counted with star.
She's played her part down thru the years
TO make Union strong
We're glad Ohio is her name
And we to her belong.
No other place could mean so much
Our heritage is grand.
She's given US more presidents
Than any in the land
Her sons have gone to all the world
Her daughters done the same
Their roots have reached from her old sod
Into the halls of fame
But greater still than all of these
No matter where we roam
Is this one fact, we're glad its true
Ohio is home.

forgot the small, secret doubts

evening. until midnight. They
were sitting together on the ter
