The Church is the greatest factor on
earth for the building Of character and
good citizenship. 1t is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without strong Church,
vive. There are four sound reasons why
every person should attend services regu-
larry and support the Church. They are:
Q)For his own sake. (2) For his children's
sake. ~ For the sake Of his community
and nation. ~ For the sake Of the Church
itself, which needs his moral and material
support. Plan to go to church regularly
and read your Bible daily.
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1961-08-25

The psamist must have known the turmoil
of life, though he lived three thousand years
ago. At least he had experienced the peace which
comes upon man when he escapes the busting
world and rests in the quiet stiffness of natures
scene. And he caught its spiritual meaning!
A mans SOUL like his body, needs to be
restored. Just as sleep and recreation rebuild our
physical strength, prayer and worship re-vitalize
our spiritual being.
Thoughtfully, our forefathers taught us to
spend part Of each day in spiritual pursuits
Wisely, they set aside one day Of the week for
worship.
The Church provides opportunity for Sunday
worship, and guidance in everyday devotion to

Already many summer visit
ors have enjoyed the Museum,

State Population

The housing shortage, which
followed World War II has ap-
parently been alleviated some-
what in Delaware-except, per-
haps, a few scattered areas
advises the Delaware State De-
velopment Department.
Basing its observations on re-
Gently released statistics devel-
oped from last years Census,
the state information agency
notes that, as of April |, 1860,
Delaware had 3,943 units of

that this was a vacancy rate
of 8.5 percent as compared to
a nationwide average of 81 per-
cent.
, According to the Census, Del
aware also had available l,648
vacant units of housing for sale.
This was a rate of l.9 percent
as compared to a nationwide
