BIGGEST SCHOLARSHIP
FUND

"A new organization, created to
operate a scholarship fund pro-
gram, which is believed to be
the largest in existence, has an
nounced initial grants of over
S2O,O00,000 in behalf of education.
Among the initial grants was
100000 from the Ford Founda-
ton, 100000 from the Carnegie
Corporation, 100000 from the
Sears Roebuck Foundation and
others. The new organization is
to be known as the National Mer-
1t Scholarship Corporation. It is
an independent agency.
The National Merit Scholarship
Corporation is designed to ad-
minister a scholarship program
which features the cooperation of
colleges. The college will get part
OF the scholarship award.
A nationwide search for talent
in the high schools will be con-
Quoted each year and the most
talented young men and women
will be sought for scholarships.
To receive a scholarship, a student
must compete in an examination
with those from the various high
schools in all parts of the country.
We hope the competitive exam
nation to be taken by students
from all parts of the country will
not be given with the thought in

CHURCH
NEAR 1OO,OOO,OOO

The National Council of the
Churches of Christ in the U. S. A
said recently that membership in
churches in the United States. of
all faiths, is now 81, 482,611.
This Is a membership ratio of
sixty per cent of all American
citizens and represents a percent
age gain, among the population of
eleven per cent since 1910, when
only forty-nine per cent of our
people were members of churches.
Many Americans may not rea-
lie it, but the percentage of
citizens belonging to a church was
considerably lower in early Amer
lean days than it is today. For
example, in 1855, only sixteen per
cent of the population of the Unit
ed States were church members.
However, there can be little
doubt that the gain since 1910 is
most encouraging and it signifies
a renewed interest in the church
and religion, in the United States.
The recent National Council of
The Sidney herald., 1955-09-22

Churches of Christ report shows
that Protestant churches in the
United States have 57,124,I42
members. The Roman Catholic
church has 80, 4O3, 1892 members,
while Jewish churches have $780,
600 members.
Eastern Orthodox churches have
2,024,219 members, and other
churches have several hundred
thousand members between them,
among them $4,000 Buddhists.
The rate of growth Of the
churches is interesting. Jewish
congregations showed a percent
age increase in 1854 of ten per
cent. This was the highest per-
centage increase of all churches,
and compares with the Roman
Catholic percentage increase of 80
per cent and the Protestant
churches increase of 2.3 per cent.
Eastern Orthodox membership is
reported to have declined.
The largest Protestant bodies in
the United States are reported to
be: the Baptist church, with 49,
448,621 members and the Metho-
dist church, with 1862 O2 mem
bers. The Lutheran church has
6,818,283 members, the Presby-
terian church 3,7O3, O21, and the
Protestant Episcopal church O.
660,699. In the case of the first
four churches, figures cover the
various branches of these various
churches.

THE BRIDGE
AT WAYLAND

More than 300 years ago. in
1641, a stone bridge was built at
Wayland, Massachusetts,. For all
that time it took and survived
everything the Sudbury River had
10 offer. Then came the terrible
floods of last August and the his
toric bridge was destroyed.
Nothing is so durable as to he
automatically safe from
OF n kind or another. And that
principle also applies to human
creations which are not material.
Many of us, seemingly, believe
that because our constitutional
system was designed to give maxi
mum freedom to all, we are safe
from tyranny and oppression so
long as we can defend our borders
from foreign enemies. Nothing
could be more blind than this
attitude. For freedom must be ac-
lively and eternally defended if it
is to survive. A little socialism
here, a little more socialism there
= and the structure starts to
crumble. The greatest enemy of
freedom is ever-growing, ever
more-powerful government.
The old stone bridge at Way
land, now gone, was more than
100 years the senior of this gov
eminent. A vast destructive force
swept the bridge away. The forces
within u own borders which
would, little by little, white away
our individual freedoms in favor
of more governmental authority
could do exactly the same thing
to our constitutional system.

HI WORLD SERIES


Dates for the World Series this
year have been set. The World
Series will open on September %
II the weather is right, and will
be continued until one of the two
teams has won four out of the
seven games.
The first two games will be
played in the home park of the
club that wins the American Le-
gion pennant. At this time, this is
still undecided. The next three
games, if there are at least five.
will be played at the home of
the Brooklyn Dodgers, who r
Shoo-inS for the flag in the Ma
tional League.
The dates for this years World
Series reflect the recent trend TO
open the fall baseball classic
slightly earlier than in some past
years. Heretofore, the World Ser
les has often opened in October
and it will extend into October
this year.
In this connection, it is interest
ing to note that the two months
between August 18th and October
18th contain perhaps the greatest
number of major sports events
any sixty days during the year.
Golf and tennis are still in sea-
son, baseball reaches its peak and
football also reaches its peak in
the month of October. Quite often.
as Is the case this year, there is
a heavyweight championship bout
IN September, since that is the
last month when an outdoor match
can be staged.

CONSIDER PROPOSAL

Despite these considerations, we
should receive and consider any
proposal which the Red Chinese
may make. In so doing. however,
We must not permit our love for
peace to mouSe-trap us into any
agreement which lessons our ca
pacity to defend ourselves i'll this
hazardous world. If history offers
us any lesson. it is that peace
loving peoples often suffer the
tragic fate depicted in these words
of the great English Poet, Rudyard
Kipling:
when the Cambrian measures
were forming. they promised per-
petual peace;
They swore if we gave them our
weapons that the wars of the
tribes would cease:
But when we diSarmed, they
sold us and delivered us bound to
the foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook
Headings said stick to the Devil

Cotton Fertilizer
Should Be Applied
EARLY, Says Expert

Cotton fertilizer should be ap-
piled early for maximum benefit
according to J. A. Shanklin, State
College extension cotton specialist
i One of the most important steps
to adequate fertilization of cotton
Shanklin says, is Side-placement.
1T has been proven time and
again that side placement of fer
tilizer will result in about II per
cent increase in cotton yield. COM
pared with the traditional meth
cd of using the fertilizer below
seed at planting time Side-place-
ment is even more advantageous
in a dry season.
If you don't have equipment
for side-placement. then put the
fertilizer in the row about 10 days
before planting and mix it with
the soil thoroughly, Shanklin ad-
viSeS.
"Cotton abSorbS the greater part
of its nutrients during the first
half of its growing period" he
points out, so it is necessary to
get dressings of nitrogen and
potash on early. or at about the
time of chopping." Thus, you will
be assured of early setting Of
squares and bolls, and of getting
the jump on the boil weevil.
Early placement of fertilizer can
mean about 800 to 400 pounds
more seed cotton per acre. Shank
lin believes.
