Sitting At Back
Of The Church

NOBODY has given a satisfactory ex-
~ PLANTATION of why congregations fill
a sanctuary from the back of the church.
Various methods have been tried to get
the worshippers to sit forward.
The late DR.. Wynne Boliek, Column
bia Lutheran minister, used to tell the
story Of the automated church that had
only rear pews. AS each was filled, it
moved to the front. AS an added touch
to the mechanism, when the preachers
sermon ran over 25 minutes - zip.-
down he went through a trapdoor.
The problem Of sitting in the back Of
the church is worldwide, but a church
in Yorkshire, England, has found a So
luton. Only the first three rows have
been furnished with foam rubber cush-
ions.

Well Done Jaycees

VIEWED by an estimated 10000 peo-
' pie last Friday, the second annual
Christmas parade sponsored by the
Farmville Junior Chamber Of Com
MERGE was worthy of a city twice the
size of Farmville. When the Jaycees do
things they do them big.
The spectacle was the product of full
cooperation from the Community. With
such spirit there is nothing too big
which cannot be achieved.
Many hours Of hard work and care
full planning went into the success OF
this event. The Jaycees can be j%ustifi-
ably proud Of its production.

Speak Discretely

will look for some meaning in this re-
port, since one Of the reporters was a
White House favorite. So far as we can
tell, Mr.. Stevenson appears to be doing
an acceptable job in the UN.
While these controversies were in pro-
gress, Senator Allan J. Ellender, of
Louisiana, repeatedly told a news con-
ference in Southern Rhodesia that most
Africans are unready for self-govern-
ment and incapable of leadership ex-
cept through the assistance Of Euro
peans." Immediately the nations which
he planned to visit in Africa made it
known that he was persona 0 grata.
Senator Ellender should learn to be dis
crete even if he may be speaking the
truth, or stay at home.
These are but a few of the national
politicians who have opened their
mouths recently and put their foot in
it. Just plain ordinary citizens have to
be discrete but public figures need to
be more so.

A Word To The
Young Generation

Editor Of Herald:
While sitting in a service sta
ton in the Farmville area, l
heard this statement made by
two elderly gentlemen, In this
time and day the younger gen
Grafton is too lazy to work"
l am going to take the side OF
the younger generation because
I'm a member of this s0-called
younger generation.
These two gentlemen COM
pared the younger generation Of
1920 with that Of 1860. In 1920. a
man though $1.2O a day was
good wages: and it was because
$1.2O had a lot more buying
power than S 1.2O today. Today a
person who earns SIS a week
takes almost all Of this to live.
To sum this letter up. I would

taking the place Of men young
and old alike. Today a machine
is made to do the job of fifty
men, so how are the younger
men supposed to work. when
machinery is made to do the
work.
Finally, I would like to make
an appeal to the younger gen.

history.
There was plenty of excitement and
courage and dedication exhibited in the
early years Of this country, even before
the Revolution. We had wars with the
Indians and wars with France and
Spain and England. Our wars with
Mexico were not all they should have
been and we also were in two world
wars and the Korean War.
If the stories of courage and patri-
otism and duty, in these, and in other
non : war stories, and the true story
of the development of u country, in
other ways, could be recreated on tel
evision, we would have opened up a
wide field of entertainment, and would
have taken some Of the emphasis off
the "fastest-gun."

I'd any chance the UN might ever have

He had but one outlet. Make a clean

This he did and became a counter spy

DUBLIC officials should speak dis
cretely, or what they say will bounce
back, sometimes years later. This month
appears to have brought more indis-
erection than usual.
Former President Eisenhower was ac-
cused recently Of saying back in 1856
that Richard M. Nixon had not grown"
at that time sufficient to be presidential
timber. Mr.. Eisenhower denied the state
ment, but even at that many people will
believe that he expressed such an opin-
ion probably in an off-handed remark.
Maybe he did or maybe he didn't, it
points up the need for public figures
to be discrete even in jest, or it will
bounce back years later, especially if
the subject is a unsuccessful politician.

Truth And Fiction

ONE of the amazing things about the
" American scene is the widespread ac-
ceptance of shoot : EN- : ups by the
public. While the glut is easing a little,
until a short time ago, practically all
of the major television shows and
many of the major movie shows were
shoot-em-ups.
1t is quite true that many adults just
use these cowboy shows to relax, that
they do not take them seriously, and
that they get a few smiles out of them
as they watch the fastest gun NOW EN-
down. But many look upon these shows
as the real story of the Old West.
Thankfully, the trend is getting away
from the shoot-em-ups. 1t would seem
it is about time for the public to be
treated to some honest, historical pre-
sensations about the country's early

winner of his ladies' and mems
elimination tournament. You'll

Ralph made many, many

who were not fortunate enough
to have been in close contact
with Ralph during the run of
the tourney.

grew. Especially was this
true with Jan Behrens' ladies'
examinations. First there were
eight, then four and finally

Some of the spectators work
ed harder than the contestants
as they hurried and scurried
from lane to lane to watch the
current string. The place was
packed. The bowling was excel

lots of that green stuff was
