AVAILABLE AT SIDNEY HIS,
FOR ALL IL. S. STUDENTS
FOR ALL

A new guide to hundreds OF
college scholarships available to
qualified high school students OF
this area has been presented to
Sidney High School by Richland
Unit No. IL of The American
Legion Auxiliary.
The 76-page publication, has
been recognized as one of the
major scholarship. guides now
being issued in the United States.
While it gives special listings of
scholarships which have been
established for children of vet
Grams, particularly children of
deceased veterans, it also lists
many other scholarships and edu-
cational aids which have been
made available to young people
generally.
Mrs. Helen Benson, Education
and Scholarship chairman of
The American Legion Auxiliary,
stated that thousands of young
people have failed to take advan-
tage of generous educational aids
WAANAi nave OtGil OllGISQ.
She mentioned in particular
the War Orphans Educational
Assistance Act of 1856 which pro-
vides up to S110 per month in ed
ucational help for sons and
daughters Of veterans who lost
their lives in or as a direct re-
suit of military service in time
OF war. A fairly large portion of
the young people eligible for this
help have failed to apply, Mrs.
Benson said.
She urged high school students
to start making plans for their
higher education by no latter
than their junior year. 1.-The boy
or girl who starts checking
scholarship sources and making
arrangements early is the one
with the best chance of going on
TO school," she said.
The American Legion scholar
ship guide, which is entitled
Need a Life?" is available for
the use of interested students,
parents, and high school officials.
The publication is now in its
edition, and more than a
quarter of a million copies of the
popular handbook have been
distributed since it was first is
sued in 1851. =

"Some terrible accident.
will inevitably trigger a nu-
clear war unless a way Is
found to end the peace by
terror" in which the world
now exists. Representative
Bowles, Democrat of Connec-
ticut, said last night.
The time for fruitful nego-
tiations with the Russians
probably has not arrived. and
II doubt If it will very soon.
Do not expect quick decisions
from Geneva or any place
else" Mr.. Bowles told the in
ternational night banquet of
the 40th annual convention
of Quota Clubs international
at the Shoreham Hotel.
Peace will come sooner or
later" by negotiation or
there will be no world. The
Soviets and the United States
have the power to blow it
up" declared the Congress
man, a former Governor of
Connecticut and a former
Ambassador to India.
May Take Generations
1T may take generations of
time" he cautioned. But
this is what we have to &C.
cept if We are going to have
a world worth living in"
Meanwhile. this country
must always be ready to
talk and negotiate" but at
the same time remain mill
tarily strong, the speaker ad-
vocated.
THE greatest mistake we
could make would be not to
build up our military strength
sufficiently" Mr.. Bowles as
serted. 1T would be a vital,
terrible, tragic error to tempt
the Soviet. Union by showing
them we were not strong. or
were lacking in will power"
Beyond that, the Repre-
sentative continued. we must
recognize that this military
program, Though so essen
tial. is not enough. 1t is not
an end in itself, but only a
means to the end, which
is peace"
Military power builds a
barrier between nations
which permits the efforts for
peace and a better world to
go on behind the barriers,
suggested Mr.. Bowles, who
is a member of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee.
This country must use that
opportunity ito build a
bridge of understanding to
the other nations of the
world who want to be free"
he said.
Will Choose Freedom
I'VE don't want them TO be
our satellites" he continued.

that they can have the free

The writer states in Easter Is

Now | wish to ask a question. If
Christians are forbidden the Pass
over, then why did Jesus eat the
Passover with His apostles the
night before the CrucifiXion? Do
you have an adequate answer? l
cannot understand where eating a

subject matter.

verses following the 4th verse we
can easily see what he means. He
does stress the fact that faith in
Jesus and love for our fellow men
are the necessary prime factors in
our religious life.
1t is true that God sometimes
speaks to us with symbols, but
this does not give us the right to
use a symbol to change a passage
in scripture to suit our cOnven-
fence. To illustrate how symbolic
ing is carried too far: A man made
the assertion that the five stones
David took from the brook before
his encounter with Goliath was
symbolical of Jesus crucifiXion.
One stone for His death, two stones
for the nails in His hands, one
stone for His riven side, and one
stone for the nail in His feet
which we're nailed together. This
is about the limit for symbolizing.

Letter to the Editor
Editor, The Republican.


Editor, The Republican.
Dear Sir:
Any mawkish attempt to identify
Calico with religious disputes
through use Of quotations from
his writings Letter to the Editor,
April 49, creates this hazard:
Readers might be led to probe
into facts surrounding the clash
that occurred between religion
and Calico when he dared adj
vance the belief that the sun did
not move about the earth. Certainly
he was not intensely concerned
about petty disagreements having
to do with the uncertain origin of
Easter the accuracy of Christmas,
or the calendars controversial
placement of Sunday
Calico was concerned, however,
with the science of physics, and
he founded that science. His crude
telescope unveiled many celestial
secrets. The reward for his deVo-
ton and toll and his contribution
to enlightenment and progressive
living. was a summons to appear
before the Inquisition in Rome.
He was told that The proposition
that the sun does not revolve
about the earth is foolish, absurd,
false in theology and heretical,
and expressly contrary to Holy
Scriptures
AS any superficial study of his
biography will show, Calico was
intimidated into an agreement
that he never again would attempt
to teach that the earth revolves
around the sun. Sixteen years
passed. Then the astronomer yield
ed to the urge of truth. He wrote
book The book stated all the
known arguments that the earth
does move around the sun. Cali
leo, then seventy, was again
brought to Rome. Under the
threat of being thrown in chains,
and after a month in prison, the
old man agreed to recant. After
a short period during which he
was torn between his own GER
tainties and visions of fiendish
torture that may be in store for
him, he finally recorded the tol-
lowing: Il, Calico, being in my
seventeen year, being a prisoner
and on my knees. and before your
Eminences, having before my eyes
the Holy Gospel which l touch
with my hands, abjure, curse, and
detest the error and the heresy of
the movement of the earth"
The adherents Of superstition
had won. They had compelled a
feeble old man to voice a shame
full reversal of his most cherished
convictions. The fertile muck of
ignorance, without a trace of
tolerance or refinement, had wit
messed its day of fruition. Thus,
fearful and shaken. Calico was
able to save himself from being
burned at the stake-the fate of
his notwithstanding predecessor,
