4 Bop's Finest Memorp

During this festive Christmas
season, churches all over the
country will overflow with wor-
shippers. 1t wasn't always that
way
When I was a boy of ten, our
community church, in order to
stimulate interest among pa
rishioners, decided to hold SER
vices every morning at 8 a. m.
for a week. Since we couldn't
afford a resident minister, one
was acquired from the outside.
do not remember his name.
But I shall never forget his
strong, kindly face and his prom
inent red beard.
My father, who was very active
in the church, sent me off one
cold and rainy morning. I walked
alone to the small, wooden sane
tuary through a murky gloom.
Upon arriving, I could see that
no one was present but the red
bearded minister and me.
was the congregation.
Embarrassed, took a seat,
wondering anxiously what he
would do. The hour for the SER
vice arrived. Surely he would
tell me politely to run along
home.
With calm and solemn dignity
the minister walked into the pull
pit. Then he looked down on
me and smiled-a smile of great
warmth and sincerity. In the
congregation sat solitary child,
but he commenced the service as
if the church were crowded to
the walls.
A ritual opened the services,
followed by a reading lesson to
which l gave the responses. Then
the minister preached a short
sermon He talked earnestly to
me-and to God. When it came
time for the offering, he placed
the collection plate on the altar
railing. l walked up and drop
ped my nickel into the plate.
Then he did a beautiful thing.
He came down to the altar to re-
ceive my offering. AS he did
this, he placed his hand on my
head ! can still feel the thrill
and sensation of his gentle
touch 1t won my belief and
strengthened my faith. The spirit
Of truth was in the church with
US that morning.
None of us can tell at what
moment we step into a boys life
and by a demonstration of love
and faith turn him in Gods di-

.LENTEN IDEAS
BY SMYRNA BOY
Ralph Peters, Student at
Iowa Wesleyan College Au-
thor of Lenten DevOtiOns
PUBLISHED IN BOOKLET

Ralph Peters or Smyrna, stu
dent at Iowa Wesleyan College,
Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, is the author
of the Lenten devotion for March
10 published in a booklet, Toward
the Cross, which students circu-
lated Ash Wednesday. Peters is a
member of Sigma Phi Epsilon, the
international Club, and of relig-
ious groups on the campus. His
meditation is: Toward the Cross
How. pray" pray without ceas-
ing" I Thess. SIT. Read 1 Thes-
salonians 5. There was a talented
singer who had one of the best
voices known. Unfortunately she
thought her voice to be so good
that she need not practice for
fear that she might strain it. 1t
so happened that in time to come
she lost her singing voice due to
lack of practice. That is true in
life today. We lose what we have
if we don't use it. The same is
true with prayer. The more we
pray, the easier it is. Prayer is
one of Gods gifts to man. We can
either take it or leave it. In order
to have the benefit of the cross
which God has promised us, we
have to come in personal contact
with Him. 1t can only be done by
prayer-sincere prayer. If you
have been in contact with God,
you know what I mean. If not,
you are in for a new experience
of being in the Kingdom of God.
Thought for the day: With pray
er, the impossible can be done
through Christ.

FIRST ALARM
IN SIX WEEKS
Firemen Called To Grass
Fire on Leipsic Road
Sunday Afternoon
Sth ALARM THIS YEAR

Thirty-two volunteers of the
Citizens Hose Company answered
the alarm for a grass fire on Sum
day afternoon on the Leipsic Road
which spread to the ruins of an
old brick church known as Ray
mond's Church, setting fire to the
remains of the building. The fire
was quickly extinguished. The
grass fire started on the property
of Howard Killen and spread to
the underbrush around the old
church. The firemen were in SER
vice about one-half hour. This was
the first time the fire siren had
been heard in almost six weeks,
the last alarm having been on
Feb. 2. The blaze on Sunday was
only the eighth so far this year,
as compared with twenty alarms
during the same period last year.
Paint Interior of Fire House
The volunteed firemen have just
completed painting the interior of
the old section of the fire house,
re-finishing the engine room,
radio room, storeroom and mems
room on the first floor, and the bed
room of the custodian on the Sec
ond floor. The large lounge room
had been painted at the time of
completion of the new wing of the
fire house. The volunteers have
done all the interior painting
themselves. The entire interior of
the fire house is now in apple-pie
order.

SCOUT HEAD TELLS LIONS OF
EXPANSION AT CAMP RODNEY

The Smyrna Lions Club had as
guest speaker at their dinner
meeting Monday night Conner
Jones, scout executive for this
area, who told first of the recent
successful campaign for expansion
of facilities at Camp Rodney. An
swering the question of why we
have scouting, he said that scout
ing is one answer to youths prop
Iems, which are different from. the
problems of the youth of past
years. Then they had no military
service, less money, no fear of
atom bombs. Scouting is game
for boys under the guidance of
adults, and is character building,
teaches reverence, gives leader
ship training, training in physical
fitness, and provides boys to be
leaders not only in their commun-
tiles, but to lead others. Answer
ing how it works, he said that the
boys learn by doing; they play
games with a purpose, learn skills
behind which are a purpose.
Scouts are a tool to be used by
other organizations, he stated,
such as the church and civic
clubs, to further their programs.
Camping he sees as a basic neces-
Smyrna times., 1955-03-17

sity, a practical experience close
to nature, with opportunity for
boys to use their Imagination and
ingenuity. He stressed the great
need for leadership, with a lack
of adult leaders. 1--WE have an
ism that combats communism, he
said, and that is "volunteerism"
Men need no technical knowledge
to become scout leaders, he con-
tinued, only to like to work with
boys. America needs scouting so
that we may work together in a
democratic way, he said in con-
clusion. He was presented by
Francis B. Gebhart, who also gave
the response. James r. Ford,
presiding, announced changes in
officers, as follows: Harry Shortt,
first vice president; Robert Ever
EFT, third vice president; and
Charles Guy, Lion tanner. On
April II the Lions will entertain
the cub scouts; Ladies night will
be observed on April rs; on May
9, a program by the DUPONT Com
pany; election of officers on May
%. The slate of officers viii be
presented on April 25, and on May
9, nominations may be made from
the floor.
