 Disregarding loose theo- ries to the contrary, men have been roaming this earth for about 5000 years.
 When we stop to think about it, the events of this mere iota of time, no matter how many history books they may fill, are of no im- portance whatever - except as they are related to the infinitely great and vast eternityl How could it be otherwise?
 Yet business, politics, enter tainment, and a million triAes loom before us, Obscuring our vision of that all-impOrtant eternity.
 It is like being 'lost in the woods" Of course, it is impor- tant that we be familiar with the
 affairs of this life; Ioef but we must be
 sure that they do jn the not prevent our at- lYS } taining eternal life. " oooS! Don't become so
 confused by the dense woods" of modern times that you lose sight of that in- comparably vital destination.
 It is easy to see that the only truly important things-the only enduring things-are reli- giOus things; because spiritual things are our guides through the woods" to eternity. Have you ever thought of it just that way?
 Take one spiritual thing, for in- stance, that some people consider unimportant: the Sabbath. They think the Sabbath is completely out of joint with the times. It is just the opposite: the times are out of joint with spiritual things!
 The Sabbath, as you know, is . day cOnsecrated by God Him self for spiritual and physical rest. It is regenerating force that benefits us now and for eternity. It renews our faith and trust in God and strength ems our allegiance to Him.
 The richest blessings in all the Bible are offered to those who will observe this sign of Gods creative power, yet some people feel this is unimportant if it means in- convenient adjustment of routine matters.
 When God placed man upon earth, as the climax of creation. He established a memorial for him to observe. That memorial of creation Genesis 2:1-S) was all actual portion of time-a day.
 We are told in the Command ments, by which we will be judged, that we are to observe this me- morial because "in
 six days the Lord Why made heaven and
 earth, the sea, and the all that in them is, c.LL..L2 and rested the sev- Sdoodth! enth day: where
 fore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:11.
 That sacred day of spiritual re- newing exists now-as surely as God created the world. It will continue into the new and re- created world: "From one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord" Isaiah 66:23.
 Are you Host in the woods"? One thing that will help you to find your way more surely is the utilizing of that sacred day estab- lished by God for rest, refreshing, and reconsideration of your course. Use it to plan for eternity and the new world to come. (Next: The Case of the Desc crated Flag.)

At the same time, they rejected
269 to 176 a proposal to give the
School Board complete fiscal in

The school vote was almost a re-
versal of the 1949 referendum vote
in the school district, asking the
legislature for a law to- permit
fiscal independence. Officials ex-
pressed belief the vote reflected
criticism of the law that was
rushed through the legislature in

ACS Program Will
Give Better Phone
Service To States

WASHINGTON, R-The Alas
ka Communication System plans
a $1,000 ,449 construction program
during the coming. year to add II
additional telephone channels be-
tween Anchorage and Prince Ru-
pert, British Columbia.
Details of the project were dis
closed in published testimony by
Maj. Gen. George I. Back, chief
signal officer for the Army, before
the House Appropriations Com
mittee.
Only II telephone channels be-
tween Alaska and the United
States are now available, Back
said, and the additional lines are
badly needed. Lines from Prince
Rupert to Seattle would be leased
from the Canadian government.
Present service, he said, is "to-
tally inadequate reflected in
service delays and an inordinate
number of long distance call can
cellations."
Back said the communications
system plans to place additional
wires between Tok Junction and
Haines, and between Anchorage
and Tok junction.; to install a
submarine coaxial cable between
Haines and Prince Rupert with II
voice channels which would be
extended to Seattle via Prince
George and Vancouver, BIC.
The additional channels, Back
said, still will not guarantee tele-
phone service of commercial STAN
dards but twill ameliorate the
present unsatisfactory situation"
He estimated that revenues from
their use would pay off project
costs within 10 years.
In addition, Back said, ACS
plans to replace control cable at
Sitka ($9,818), install semiauto-
matte teletype equipment at An
chorage and Fairbanks ($216,254;
protect submarine cables on the
beach at Whittier $3.50; and
move the communication center
at Juneau ''to a location which
provides adequate security and
better operation of equipment"
