What Do Y0u Think of
Beifry Bats Church Staff2
| wonder if the parishioners
know the real purpose of a church
staff. The Bishop says that a
church staff can be one of two
things:
/. 1t can be like a staff that some
one leans on for support Sort of
a crutch idea. The church member
who says That's what we hire a
preacher for" is a member of this
school of thought.
2. 1t can be like the staff with
which Moses struck the rock and
caused the water to gush forth. The
church member who looks at the
staff in this way is truly Protestant
He reasons thusly, ''The church
must help dig the we'll. Together
we can make things real wet around
here"
The Bishop quips: Praise the
Lord for the Moses tribei

Bill Lassey to
Speak at NYA
Hall Wednesday

Bill Lassey, Richland County
IFYE delegate to Turkey last sum-
mer, will speak at the NYA Hall
in Sidney, January 2 at 7:30 p. m,
Bill will have talked to nearly
IS different organizations up 10
this time. However, many people
in and around Sidney may not
have had the chance to hear Bills
illustrated talk. To give everyone
an opportunity, Bill will be sched-
uled for January 2.
Many people have commented
on the fine presentation that Bill
has given up to this date. Bill has
included high schools, grad e
schools, PTA organizations, civic
organizations and community gath
eringS in his schedule.
The IFYE program is an Inter
national Farm Youth Exchange,
whose purpose is to promote world
peace through understanding. Dip
lomats and world organizations
attempt to gain peaceful relations.
However, an exchange of young
people does more to develop an
interest in the other peoples way
of life. Many exchanges are
adopted by foreign parents for
several months. Through this close
relationship involves an under
standing that helps tie nations to-
gether. 1t helps to develop peace.
Again the date for Bills talk
is January 2, starting at 1880 p.
m. at the NYA Hall.
