Since today's technologi-

and the moon, he may become
so aware of his strength, that
he is heedless of his weak-
ness-namely that his pressure
on nature may provoke revenge.

This past Sunday Dr. Sidney
Roberts, Area Program Director

to the Bishop, Dallas-Fort
Worth Area of the United

the First United Methodist

inspiring story about his
Christmas trip with members
of the H. Ross Perot flight
that attempted to take medi-
cine, gifts and letters to our
soldiers in P.O.W. camps in
North Vietnam, Laos and South
Vietnam.
We thank Dr, Roberts for
his inspirational and timely
message.

Considering that there are
over 6,500,000 farms in the
United States, it might seem,
that one person can do so
little to solve all their con-
servation problems. For this
reason, the U. S. Department
of Agriculture spends much
time and money conducting
research in the field of soil
and water conservation. The
least any man can do is to
profit by this research and
cooperate with the department.
My stake in protecting our
natural resources is simple:
it means a good life for me.
Yet if I am careless, erosion
and pollution will smother the
ember of life. Former President
Dwight D. Eisenhower once
said, "‘If destruction is our
lot, we must provoke it.” If
we act wisely now, the natural
resources of Texas will last
and we, as well as our de-
scendants, can continue to
enjoy our present standard of
living.
As we review our heritage,
our thoughts linger on many
battles of history which we
have fought to gain this glor-
ious land. People have died
and suffered hardships to
preserve it for the next genera-
tion. Is that not enough to
merit its protection?
Mrs. Cora Laird has re-
turned from a two weeks visit
with relatives in Electra and
Edna.

environment feeds on another.
This is the cornerstone on
which all society is dependent.
Yet man’s ignorance of this
fact could bring him to ex-
tinction within the next
century. Our clean water, pol-
luted by industrial wastes;
our fresh air, dirtied and de-
filed by factory smoke; and
our soil, minerals, and timber,
constantly being ravaged and
depleted by that unconquerable
agressor, Progress, are a dear

Texans of today enjoy the
greatest wealth and comforts
of any previous generation.
We have every reason to feel
secure, right? Wrong! Perhaps
two hundred years hence, his-
torians will be startled by the
turmoil of the twentieth cen-
tury. To sum it up, we-are
faced with war, inflation, and
civil disorders all at once.
Even more horifying, the two
greatest essentials for life,
soil and water, are attempting
to refuse service to us.
As for my role in this drama
of confusion, who knows? I
may find myself a prince or a
pauper, a success or a failure.
Only one thing is certain: as
long as I am alive I depend on
soil and water for my surviVal.
human pollution may trigger
some ecological disaster.
For my part, I say that my
Texas with all her wealth of
resources must be defended
against destruction. We must
all, as concerned Texans,
rally to the life or death cause
of conservation in the fight
against pollution, erosion,
and sheer waste. If we all put
forth our best effort, we can-
not fail.
Dr. and Mrs. Sidney Roberts
and Mr. and Mrs. Lavelle Wil-
liams of Dallas and Mrs. Otis
Ellis of Waco visited the Earl
Deans on Sunday.
