Theme: Beginning the Year
With God. Text: Gen. IL

In the beginning, How to
begin?
That is the question that faces
everyone who would accomplish
any task worth his while.
How shall we begin? How
enter the new year so full of
possibilities, SO mysterious, so
fruitful with destiny for each
of us.
Notice the following, they
have a lesson for US.
Jonah: who tried to run away
from life. Cain: who went out
from the presence Of the Lord.
Zachaeus: who faced his life
situation. Peter: when he came
face to face with life's realities
went out and Wept bitterly.
Judas: when he came face to
face with life's realities destroy
ed himself. Isaiah: when he came
to himself said, "here am l send
me-"
In the first place, we must
begin as the book itself begins.
''In the beginning Cod. If the
coming year is to have any real
meaning or purpose, any worth,
or dignity; if it is to lead us to
amy goal worthwhile, to any
loiter level of manhood or
womanhood, then He who is the
source of all life and the in
spiration of all noble living
God-must stand with us on the
very threshold of the year and
step out with us on its undis-
covered highways.
You and | who are sons of
God created for companionship
with the Almighty and because
of this, to start the new year
without Him is to get hopelessly
off the track.
If the new year is to be a year
of spiritual growth for you, you
must in the beginning and all
the way through have God for
your companion and guide.
Again, to begin the year wi h
God will mean strength and
courage for the tasks and
struggles Of the II months ahead.
In this new year everyone of
us will have to confront situa-
tons requiring the utmost wis
dom and patience and strength
how then can we go forward
without the God of all wisdom
and strength to help US?
In the beginning start out with
God and keep step with him al.
through this year, and peace and
power, gladness and strength
will be yours to the end.
To begin the year with God

Election Board
Has Candidate
Guide Booklets

Secretary of State Ted w.
Brown recently sent to the eigh-
ty-eight county boards of cleo
ton, including Noble county
board, a supply of the 1858 edi-
ton of the Candidates Guide.
These 8-page folders, inaugu-
rated a few years ago by Secre-
tary of State Brown, contain
complete information for per-
sons who expect to be candidates
for office next year, along with
a calendar of the dates on which
more important election pro-
cedures are scheduled. Persons
who are interested may secure
them from the local board or
at the secretary of states offices
in the state house in Columbus.
Two other guides in the series
the Voters Guide and the
Precinct Officials Guide-also
are innovations in Secretary
Browns educational program
and will again be available in
1858.
All three are written in easy
to-read layman's language, al
though, for the most part, they
interpret Ohio's election statutes.
They are printed in handy, poe
wet-size formal, according to
H. G. Richcreek, local board
clerk.

GOODBYE 1857

This is being written as the
year 1857 is rapidly drawing to
close. 1t has been a year to
try mems souls especially
American souls. To most of us,
comes a feeling of relief that
1857 will shortly be at an end
and a feeling of hope that during
1858, this topsy-turvy old world
of ours will begin to assume
some semblance of balance.
The year 1857 has given us
Sputnik, a globe-circling gadget,
that it is to be hoped has Jared
US out of our complacency. 1t
was quite a shock to find that
the Russians are not quite the
dumb clucks we had considered
them to be. Perhaps now we'll
begin to see some coordinated
action at the Pentagon in the
scramble to catch up and pass
our Russian friends in the inter
planetary and guided missiles
races. If that comes to pass, 1857
will not have lived in vain.
1t may be too much to expect
that in 1858, the Congress, be-
cause defense spending has tc
be stepped up, will begin to cut
down on domestic spending, but
we can hope, can't we? And if
enough of us will make out num-
Der one New Years resolution
to lombard our legislators early
and often with demands for
economy at Washington, we can
translate that hope into reality.
At any rate, a Happy New
Year to the readers of this
column. 1t can be happy 1858
for all of us, if all of us act to
make it so.

RkELE cTtoN ~
with JAMES e. iNGEBRETsEk
President, Spiritual Mobiii1aiios

Have you taken time recently
to consider the tremendously
complicated series of human rel
ationships upon which our con-
temporary civilization rests? We
have carried specialization to the
point where we rely on others
to do almost everything for us
except the performance of our
own specialized task-and even
in that we usually have the help
of a number of other persons.
Even as simple a thing as
phoning a lunch room from an
office to order a carry-out snack
involves the operators of two
switchboards, the person who
answers the phone in the lunch
room, and the cook who prepares
the food. Moreover, it involves
the linemen who keep the line
in repair, the executives who
manage the telephone company,
and the stockholders who supply
| the capital to make the company
possible.
Now what is the one thing,
| above all else, that is needed to
keep this enormously complex
human mechanism functioning
| smoothly? 1t is simply love.
When Christ commanded us to
love our neighbors as ourselves,
He was giving us the key to
| modern living.
Anything that springs from
| hate or lust-a war, strike,
any other form of initiated viol-
ence-disrupts and, in a meas
ure, destroys our ''way of life. -
AS it is much more true now
than it was 1000 years ago that
mo man liveth to himself" so it
is much more imperative now
that we 'love one another"-if
we want our modern civilization
| to survive.

Yes, we're up. in the early
morn
From about three or four.
Sure we do honk our horns
And make our mufflers roar.
We know where we all come
from.
Yes, we all have a home.
And when it's time to roll
the coal
We each go out alone.
Speaking of roads old and
new
You're lucky you're on five
six-three
For all you need is a bucket
and you
And all your coal is free.
If our loads are big ones,
Of course they're heavy on
top.
And every bump we hit
Does cause the coal to drop.
How nice you buy no coal,
The money you can save.
Go and get your buckets full,
And don't you dare to rave.
We know how long twill last
For as long as light and
powers in need
Well still be hauling coal
so fast
So you can have light to
read.
Our trucks will still be rolling
When you are laid to rest.
Industry will still be calling
And We'll be there to meet
the test.
Our Fords, G.M.C. and
Binder" trucks
They'll still be on the roll.
Well go home and ride in
CadillacS
While you still pick up coal.

totals 30. Commissioner Hay be-
lieves it will soon number more
than 100 members, all of whom
must adhere to three basic rules:
l. Be safe operator and
obey all traffic rules and regu-
lations.
2. Stunt or trick riding, ex-
cept during authorized con-
tests. is banned.
3. Club members must aid
any motorist stranded on the
road.
"The club is not being formed
to dampen the fun of it's MEM
bers. but Just to keep them in
line," Hay points out. "The most
important benefit / can see from
membership is the education of
future automobile drivers who
will know and instinctively obey
traffic laws"
Hay also believes that the
young cyclists could be used
as messengers in the event of
an emergency.
If the club is a success, Hay
hopes it will be a model for
other communities in Michigan
! and throughout the country.

leaders all agree that is the out
look.
Uncertainty and change are the
key words used by almost every
one we have talked with to get
forecast for the year ahead. There
is more apprehension than at any
time in the past 10 years.
State Department and Defense
officials think the colo war will be-
come considerably warmer. Neither
Department, however. thinks that
we will become engaged In
shooting war in 1858.
Russia will become increasingly
belligerent and aggr sslVe.
Khrushchev will step up the tempo
of his war of nerves, not only
against the u. S. but also against
both neutrals and our friends.
Russia will try to find out just
how much trouble-making around
the world, especially in the South
west Pacific and the Near East,
we'l put up with without going
to war. We may be forced to issue
an ultimatum sometime during the
year.
Congress will give major atten-
ton to a build-up in our military
strength, and especially in missile
development. But, we probably
won't catch up with Russia in 1858.
Business leaders expect a sink
ing spell" in building, industrial
output and employment during
1858. The dollar volume of busi-
ness is expected to be down by
about SO from 1857, but still
!arger than for any year prior to
1856.
The consensus we get from busi-
ness forecasters is that there may
be a rather sharp business slump
during the first half of the year,
followed By considerable recovery
starting next fall. Price reduc-
tions, however, will be few and
small
Predictions that unemployment
will reach AS million by February
> or March-about double late 1947
figures-are the biggest worry of
labor leaders. They talk of post
poning wage increase demands
until later in the year.
Labor, too, will continue to have
family troubles" Expulsion of the
big Teamsters' Union and others
on strong evidence of racketeering
and leadership corruption may
lead to widespread and serious
labor troubles that would delay
business recovery.
Farm leaders expect no let-up in
the surplus and cost-price squeeze
problems during 1858. While prices
received remain about the same,
prices paid by farmers have
reached new all-time record high
in each of the past four months.
Congress, farm leaders and Agri-
culture Secretary Benson are set
to renew the farm program free
for-all battle when the legislators
return to Washington next week.
No one here expects that any
helpful new farm legislation will
be passed in 1858.
Often confusing and sometimes
obscuring all other issues will be
the constant Washington drum
beat of politics, for 1858 also is
congressional election year. Party
politics is never far from the
thought of Washington.
And with that. here's wishing
you Happy New Year.
