An Expression of Faith

An Expression of Faith
No one knows when ancient
man first conceived the idea of
stirring the soil and planting
seeds. Wooden plows were used
exclusively until 1897, when the
first U. S. Patent for a cast
iron pillow was issued And pio-
neerS favored pillow stocks
made of hickory. Good farmers
plowed straight fur rows in the
new nation in the west.
We know now however, that
the straight burrows do not
bless the land. Iron points
have plowed on million of
acres of soil, iron pointers have
ripped the tough sod of the
prairieS, gouged out rocks in
the northeast and stirred the
light rich soil of the southland.
1t has been a long trail from
the pioneers wooden pillow with
handles of natural wood and
all parts fastened together with
wooden pins. But even as pio-
neers went forth to prepare
the soil for planting two CEN
turtles ago, so today mems IA
it'll is equally strong.
Across the nation farmers
will be blowing on warm, sunny
days, they will be narrowing
and seeding. Where ever you
see fresh soil turned to the sun
and rain, you know that men
with faith are following in the
footsteps of those who have
lived a life based on the eter-
nal truth. Flowing is an ex-
preston of faith, men go forth
with tractors and teams and
dark ribbons of moist earth
curl away from bright metal
shares and weave a soft pat
tern on the country side.
And when the thick slices
are crumbled into fine seed
beds, then tiny seeds are plac-
ed in the earth's warm breast,
secure in the faith that when
time is fulfilled, green shoots
will rise up and meet the warm
sun and stars, and after ma
lures ordained period of grow
tn full corn in the ear, will be
ready for the harvest.
Spring, so the poet tells us
is in the heart and not in the
time of year. But somehow
human nature depends on the
segments of time man has sci
up to help regulate his affairs.
When March is here it should
mean spring even though
sometimes March often clings
on to Winters frazzled coat

NAVAJOS BENEFIT FROM

In February of 1859, an 'OnTheJob

This Training Program takes into ac-

each job down into its component parts.
Ea h man must be proficient in all
phases of the job he holds; and if ad-
vancement is antici pated. he must have
working e knowledge of the job to
which he may be advanced.
During the time this Training Pro
gram has been in effect 81 men of our
current complement have received for
NAL training, Of which approximately ~
50 per cent are Navajos. Additional
men are being trained at the present
time to fit them for advancement to
higher paying jobs.

Graduates At Work

Over 1000 years of educational
training are represented by the
III members of the graduating
class of 1860 at LongWood Col
lege who entered teaching in the
school systems of Virginia.
The information was revealed
in a recent study by the place

which showed that all of the $50
graduates have entered success
full careers such as teaching, the
business world, or graduate
study.
The nj girls who are teaching
in over 40 of Virginia city and
county school systems each have
spent Is years in formal educa-
tional training. Seven additional
students entered teaching outside
the state of Virginia. Graduates
of the class of 1860 may also be
found in the school systems of
Florida, North Carolina, Mary

School Foundation. In general the
Foundation pays for costs over
and above the normal use of the
church. but there is no rent
paid to the churches. Another ex-
ample of the spirit of coopera-
ton from all segmentS of the
community to make a success of
the private schools.
New Facilities
In making the rounds of the
school buildings it was necessary
to pass by the vacant public
school buildings. There is no
question that these buildings are
more suitable for school use than
the converted church buildings.
Pearson had no comment on
the possibility of purchasing these
buildings for the private school
foundation. However, it is obvi-
Gus. even to the casual observer,
that such would be desirable.
The alternative of purchasing
the old public school buildings is
to build new ones in each com
munity. Perhaps this alternative
may prove less expensive. but no
decision in this regard can be
made until the county school
board decides whether or not to
s.ll the old school buildings.
One definite advantage of the
old public school buildings is
their size. These buildings have
been used for years as the gath
ering or meeting place in the
communities, because they have
auditoriums available.
Concrete Evidence
Perhaps the highlight Of the
tour came at the very end, when
We stopped at the new site Of
he Prince Edward Academy.
Here we saw a spacious layout
for a new school building. The
brick and cinderblocK walls were
starting to poke their heads out
of the soil, much like a flower in
early spring, breaking through
the ground, ready to grow and
grow into a beautiful bloom.
1t was with a definite sense Of
pride that we viewed the new
school site. There we saw con-
cret, tangible evidence that soon
the word temporary would be
transformed into permanent. =
It is positive evidence that the
sacrifices of today will be trans
formed into the best facilities
possible tomorrow. It shows that
it won't be long before the
schools can stop visiting" in the
church buildings and can move
into their own home" soon.
