Oakland, Md
December II, 1858
TO the Editor.
We r2aG it through each week,
especially enjoy the contents from
our Editor IN The upper left hand
corner Of the front page. We
notice letters are asked for on the
different problems of today, even
the teen-agers ask the opinion Of
the adults on rock and roll music
We cannot go places like we use
TO, but we do read a lot We are
reminded each week in the upper
left hand corner of the front page
by our editor concerning the
Master Of the universe. The three
most important books are the
Bible, the hymn book and the
pocketbOok AS for the Bible read
John. 18th chapter, also IL Peter,
2nd. Bird. 4th and 5th chapters As
for the hymn book. when Christian
musicians play their instruments
with rock and roll rhythm. even
while playing such stalWart selec-
ton as Onward Christian Soldiers
and other great hymns of the
Faith. the obvious effort is to
glorify the performer, rather than
the Lord Jesus Christ, to whom all
honor is due. As for the pocket
book, money is what talks, but the
dollar today hasn't cents enough
to say much.
We are approaching a new year,
we think il would be well to take
inventory Of ourselves as we tell
on ourselves by the friends we
seek, in the very manner in which
we speak BY the way we employ
our leisure time, by the use we
make of the dollar and dime We
tell what we are by the things we
wear, by the spirit in which our
hudrens we bear BY the kind of
things at which we laugh. BY the
records we play on the phono-
graph. We tell what we are by the
way we walk. By the things of
which we delight to talk. By the
manner in which we bear defeat.
BY so simple a thing as how we
eat. BY the books we choose from
the well filled shelf. In these ways
and more, we tell on our self. SO
there's really no particle Of sense
in an effort to keep up a false pre-
tense. For a good new year |
would recommend recipe written
by Mrs. Polly Hanst
We wish all our friends and
neighbors a Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year.
