After all my years in the ministry,

wonderful person l have ever
Known is Jesus Christ.

Yet, when he was on the cross

Calls Little Rock
Primitive Symbol

Mrs Newton p Leonard, past
president of the National Con-
gress of Parents and Teachers,
speaking before the Rhode Is
land PTA Congress, last week,
called Little Rock a symbol of
the primitive world where we
have yet to learn to live with
one another. She was speaking in
Newport, r. l.
She said the PTA must con-
tinue to led the way until the
community is a place where peo-
pie live together, understand
and respect one another.
