need the assistance of individuals
who have more than their actual
needs demand; and
WHEREAS, orr religious groups
of all faiths have shown the mean
ing Of being "our brothers keeper
by planning a Share-Our-Surp
program which is worldwide; and

field and I'm going to have the fun oil
watching more life come out of it
that's if the weather and the seed and
everything else is all right. Things
can't always be just right but so long
as that handful of earth feels good and
life goes into it, then life viii keep on
coming out of it. hope my earth al
ways feels good.
THE more got to wondering about
that handful of dirt, the more wonder
full it seemed. Out of this handful of
dirt and others like it comes just about
everything we have; and we wouldn't
have anything for long if somebody
like me didn't love that handful of dirt.
You can't help but let your mind work
over thoughts like that sometimes.
Here I was holding the best stuff of
the whole UNIVERSE felt kind of sorry
for all those fellows blowing around
with geiger counters trying to find
some uranium. Uranium Just isn't in
it with this handful of dirt. Sure. it
takes lot of time and hard work, but
what I get out of this land of mine is
more important than all the diamond
and uranium mines and oil wells in
the world.
''Then I got to thinking, too, that it
isn't really just my land. Tt belonged
to all the life that used it before I
came along and it will belong to all
the life that comes after I'm dust again.
I remember preacher once reading
out of the Bible And the Lord God
formed man of the dust of the ground.
Guess I get to feeling little bit like
God when I stand with a handful of
dirt and dream of what I'm going to
bring out of it.
"And think should. OF course, He's
been working it from the very begin
ming and / just have chance to work
in it for little while. God has done
a pretty good job of the earth and as
long as we work with Him we will, too.
But you sure can make mess of it
if you forget to be thankful and if you
don't arrange that those coming along
after you can be thankful too.
''You know, it made me feel good
to pick up that handful of dirt. And
it made me feel good, too, when l saw
that poster in front of our church say
ing that May Is would be Soil Steward
ship and Rural Life Sunday. When
go to church that Sunday morning I'm
going to think over again the thoughts
hat come to me as stand in my field
holding fistful of SOIL -
I'll see you in church on Sunday
morning, May Is.

The other day while was talking
with friend of mine I happened to
ask him what he liked best about spring
time. His answer was so good I'm
passing it on to you.
IT like the feel of the earth. Every
spring when the frost leaves the ground
and begin to work it up again I find
myself, when I'm resting for a minute,
picking up handful of earth and let
ting it sift through my fingers. 1t feels
good. The other day when / did that
I started thinking what a precious
handful I had when I scooped up some
of the soil from my field. I got the
feel that day of a long, long history
behind my fistful of dirt.
Life after life has been broken into
the handful of soil I pick up from my

Republican Primary Shapes
Up As Voting Date Nears
Two Contests In
City Office Race

London's Republican primary
moved into the final stages this
week as the candidates prepared
for the decision at the polls next
Tuesday, May 3.
The principal race is between
Mayor Ned Speasmaker and Mr..
Sam Landes, candidate for the job.
Despite earlier rumors to the con-
trary, both candidates are trying
for the office.
A race is also developing be-
tween incumbent Jack Phillips and
candidate William F. Mcclure for
the job of City Treasurer.
The two contests brighten what
would otherwise be a dull politi-
cal scene in the city as the prob
lem here seems to be not for whom
to vote, but to get someone to run
for office.
Other names appearing on the
primary ballot are; unopposed for
president of council, William j.
Robson; unopposed for city audi
tor, Lottie Daily Scanlon, unop-
posed for councilman-at-large,
John Chooman; unopposed for
member of council, first ward, Paul
c.. Alexander.

London Church Is
Site OF Meeting

First Presbyterian Church of
London entertained 100 men from
the 81 churches in Columbus Pres
bytery at an all-day meeting
Tuesday, with Dr. Frederick Kirk
er of Miami Avenue Presbyterian
Church, Columbus, moderator in
charge.
At Tuesdays meeting nine young
men and two women were received
into the care of the Presbytery
preparatory to entering some
phase of Christian service, either
the ministry or Christian Educa-
ton field.
Speakers for the session were
Reverend and Mrs. Farquhar, on
Sabbatical from the mission field
in India, who reported to the
Presbytery on the work in that
area and the attitude of the new
Indian government toward Christ
ian missions in that country.
Among the IL ministers and IL
elders who will represent the
Presbytery at the meeting of the
Ohio Synod in Wooster in June
are two ministerial representatives
from Madison County, the Rever-
end David Redding from the Plain
City Church and the Reverend
Frank L. Baldwin, London.
Madison County has the honor
of having a lay commissioner
elected in January to represent
Columbus Presbytery at General
Assembly in Los Angeles, Calf
ornia in June. Delbert Dorm, elder
of the Sedalia Presbyterian church,
is hoping to accompany the four
ministers and three other lay COM
missioners who will go from Co
lumbus Presbytery to the west
coast for the Assembly.
It is a strange coincidence that
Mr.. Dorm is the second in his FAM
lily upon whom this honor has been
conferred. Many years ago, his
grandfather, the late Peter Dorm
of Sedalia, attended the General
Assembly sessions in the East as
a lay commissioner from Colum-
bus Presbytery, according to rec
ords in the hands of George Dorm,
president of the Farmers Bank of
Sedalia, a son of Peter Dorm.

Two Inheritance
Tax Delinquen+s
In Madison Co.

State Auditor James A. Rhodes
is sending letters to all probate
Judges in Ohio; all county audi
tors and prosecuting attorneys
calling their attention to the fact
that a state law which becomes
effective October 13, 1855, will
void all inheritance taxes 10 or
more years old unless steps are
taken in the meantime to collect
these delinquent inheritance taxes.
The Madison County Probate
Judges office reports that there
is only S73.05 outstanding here;
S13.24 from an estate processed in
194S and S59.81 from an estate
processed in 1888. The State Audi
tor reports some $1,000 outstand-
ing in Ohio with the exception of
Cuyahoga County, which carries
100000 on the books.
The taxes are lien on property
inherited, and can cause title
trouble when buying or selling.
