KEEPING PERSPECTIVE
, The real secret of keeping
thankful in life is the ability to
see. in how many ways we get
tXiore than we deserve. Certainly
this is true in regard to God’s
dealing with us. What a tragedy
it would be if we got what we
.deserve—and no more! The glor-
ious fact about God is that He is
^forgiving; He is a God of Grace,
jyvhich means that His love is not
jbased on our merit but on His
compassion.
It is no less true that by and
Large we get more than we. de-
serve from our human relation-
ships. Now and then we are treat-
ed unfairly, but how often we are
given credit and help and love in
spirit of our own failure to make
these same gifts to others.

“Th e Legend of M
Phoenix, Arlz. — (HK) — In
Arizona, where night-prowling
coyotes howl gleefully at the
bright moon, and the shifting
sand and desert-like climate
are vivid reminders of far-off
Saudi Arabia, the legendary
Arabian Oryx has found a
home.
A small number of the criti-
cally dwindling species — de-
liberately captured and trans-
planted to another country to
establish a breeding herd —
now occupy shelter houses and
corrals at the Phoenix Zoo.
UNIQUE VENTURE
The timely establishment of
a protected herd of oryxes in
Arizona represents a unique
venture in wildlife conservation.
Expressing the gratitude of
the Government of Saudi Ara-
bia to all the individuals and
organizations involved in the
project, Muhammad Said Bas-
rawri, Consul General of Saudi
Arabia in New York, said re-
cently, “The Saudi Government
salutes the conservationists who
.P:
Arabian Oryx
Long Way from Home
have joined together to Save one
of the world’s rarest animals
from extinction. We regard this
endeavor as another symbol of
the friendly cooperation which
has so long existed between our
two countries.”
“Operation Oryx” had its be-
ginning a few years ago.
For centu-
ries the grace-
ful animal, a
member of the
antelope fam-
ily, freely
roamed most
of the Arabian
peninsula —
living in the
measureless deserts feeding on
typical desert vegetation, and
able to go for long periods with-
out water. Little was known
about the animal except the im-
aginative suggestion that the
sight of an oryx in profile —
when its two horns seem to
merge as one — gave rise to the
legend of the unicorn.
MECHANIZED MAN
As man became more mech-
anized, the oryx, despite its
fleetness and natural camou-
flage, fell easy prey to hunters.
Within a relatively short period
of time the species almost van-
ished. Today, only a few can be
found haunting the remote des-
ert of the Rub A1 Khali, the so-
called “Empty Quarter,” which
stretches across the southeast-
ern border of Saudi Arabia..
CAPTIVITY BORN
In 1961, the “world herd”
project was started with three
oryzes trapped on an expedition
to the Aden Protectorate. They
were sent to the Phoenix Zoo
because the region’s climate
most nearly approximates that
of Saudi Arabia.
The ruler of Kuwait gave the
zoo another oryx and the Lon-
don Zoological Society added a
fifth. Two more were born in
captivity at the zoo.
But the World Wildlife Fund
— which was created to save
endangered species facing ex-
tinction — believed that the
herd should number about 12
for safety’s sake. Last year a
small party traveled to Arabia
to search for more of the elu-
sive oryxes. None were found.
IT’S A GIFT
Then, the Municipality of Ri-
yadh — in an expression of the
Saudi Government’s own con-
cern for the preservation of the
species — made a gift of four
oryxes to the World Wildlife
Fund for safekeeping at the
Phoenix Zoo.
This year, the quartet, com-
prising two male and two fe-
males, made the long trip from
Saudi Arabia to Arizona via Na-
ples, Italy, under the constant
care of conservationists and
zoologists.
its amazing!
of the late Herbert Hoover, I
impressed with the way he took
his defeat for the presidency in
1932. Even his enemies now admit
he could not have prevented the
depression for which he was held
responsible. In spite of all that
was said in the campaign, he spoke
these words at a Gridiron dinner
just a month after the election:
“I notice in the press a gener-
ous suggestion that my countrymen
owe to me some debt. I have said
in part elsewhere that, on the con-
trary, the obligation is mine. My
country gave me, as it gives to
every boy and girl, a chance. It
gave me schooling, the precious
freedom of equal opportunity for
advancement in life, for service
and honor. In no other land could
a boy from a country village with-
out inheritance or influential
friends look forward with unbound-
ed hope. ... It gave me an op-
portunity for service in the cabi-
nets of two Presidents. It gave me
the highest honor that comes to a
man—the Presidency of the Unit-
ed States. For this fulness of life,
for the chance to serve in many
emergencies, I am indebted to my
country beyond any human power
to repay.”
When we keep our perspective,
we are all indebted—to God, to our
country, and to our fellow men —
beyond any human power to repay.
* in any theatrical production, the
star of the show is often only as
good as the supporting cast. The
same holds true at holiday dinner
' time, which is itself generally a
gala production.
" Thus, the vegetables one serves
at special occasion dinners Should
Ube as interesting as the main dish.
Among notable examples of
vegetable dishes that will bring
cheers from the feasting group are
Savory Broiled Tomatoes and a
tantalizing taste treat, Festive
Squash.
SAVORY BROILED
TOMATOES
8 medium tomatoes
2 tablespoons finely chopped an-
chovies (optional)
2 teaspoons finely chopped cap-
ers
2 cups com flakes
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Cut small circle from the top of
each tomato. Spoon out centers
and crush with a fork. Add an-
chovies and capers and mix thor-
oughly. Add cereal, butter, salt
and pepper. Blend well. Stuff to-
matoes with mixture. Place in a
buttered baking dish. Broil under
flame 15 to 20 minutes, or until
tomatoes are soft. Or if desired,
bake in gas oven preheated to
350 degrees F. for 20 to 25 min-
utes, or until soft. Serves eight.
FESTIVE SQUASH
4 medium acorn squasih
1/2 cup maple-blended syrup
4 tablespoons butter
Salt
Nutmeg
Cut squash in half and remove
seeds. Cover bottom of baking dish
with boiling water. Place squash,
cut-side down, in the water and
bake in gas oven preheated to 400
degrees F. 30 minutes. Turn
squash cut-side up in pan. Place
about 1 tablespoon syrup and 1/2
tablespoon butter in center of each
squash half. Sprinkle with salt and
nutmeg. Continue baking 30 min-
utes or until squash is tender.
Makes eight servings.
Church leaders in Sydney, Aus-
tralia, have protested against a
new syllabus for state-operated
primary schools in New South
Wales which stipulates that Chris-
tian religious beliefs must be
taught only as part of the study
of general religious philosophical
beliefs. The New South Wales
Council for Christian Education in
the Schools sent a telegram to the
Minister of Education, requesting
that the graded Scripture content
of the 1959 social studies syllabus
be reinstated immediately. The
Council represents the Anglican,
Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist,
and Congregational churches, the
Church of Christ, and the Salva-
tion Army. The telegram protested
that it was “unthinkable” that
one man should be permitted to
change the whole concept of gen-
eral religious instruction in evi-
dence for over 100 years.”
President Johnson has demon-
strated that his promise of gov-
ernment for “all the people,”
which he voiced in his speech to
the Democratic National Conven-
tion, includes drivers too.
Introduction by the President in
March of a nationwide program of
road-design improvements at high-
accident locations is an inspired
move aimed at getting results
quickly.
It makes sense to pick out the
spots where most fatalities occur,
and then redesign the highways at
those points to make it less like-
ly that a driver will get killed
there, no matter how hard he tries.
The Federal government now is
working with states and cities to
reduce accidents at high-accident
locations. Nearly all states have
responded to a call for action by
the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads
by promising cooperation.
—Missouri will replace more
than 400 narrow bridges.
—Illinois has programmed more
than $5 million to replace and im-
intersection hazards and widen
prove signs and signals, remove
bridges.
-California will make 300 to
400 spot improvements which, en-
gineers estimate, will reduce ac-
cidents by a third.
Even before President Johnson’s
call, Houston, Texas, demonstrat-
ed the results likely to occur with
improvements at locations where
the most accidents happen. By
changing signal-light timing, de-
veloping a parallel one-way street
system and freeway frontage
roads, and by other means, Hous-
ton reduced accidents at the 10
most dangerous spots by 58 per
cent from 1962 to 1963.
The President of the American
Automobile Association, Russell
Singer, calls President Johnson’s
new program, approvingly, “in-
stant safety.”
At least, it’s one of the most
intelligent approaches to the traf-
fic accident problem which has
come along in years.
