We might like to dodge such

Beyond the concern with

the stained - glass windows in

a false sense of illusion. He
wanted (dear glass so that
the members could see the

needs of mankind.
Yet the windows perform
another service. They place
the pictured symbol in its
glowing color over that essen-
tial need. The two belong to-

It is because churches have
thus blended their objectives

Brown Inks Pack
With Texas Tech
Sulphur Spring* senior
footballer Joe Brown made it
official Tueaday nigbt when
he signed a pre-enrollment
application to attend Texas
Tech at Lubbock next fall.
Brown had indicated last
week that he would sign with
the Red Raiders. Coach Joe
Blaylock of Tech arrived in
Sulphur Springs Tuesday
night—the-first day of offi-
cial signings in the South-
west Conference—to obtain
Brown’s signature.
Since Brown has spring
sports eligibility at Sulphur
Springs, he won’t sign a let-
ter of intent, which includes
scholarship provisions to
Tech, prior to the end of the
school year.

position for the Wildcats last
fall. He is a 6-f o o t, 195-

Thefts Reported
To City Police
Two theft reports were be-
ing investigated Wednesday by
city police.
H. R. Barnett told police
late Tuesday that a tire and
wheel had been stolen from a
trailer parked at the construc-
tion site of the Church of the
Nazarene, South League and
Pam pa streets.
, , . . , The theft is believed to have
today s society t a keen ma(je sjncp the week-end.
Value of the loss was set at
$25.
Larry Gore reported the theft
of two spinner huh caps from
his car sometime Tuesday night.
Value was set at $15.
President Johnson's Budget
continues to be well received,
prospects for a booming econ-
omy continue to be excellent,
and the tax-cut will in all prob-
ability soon be enacted, retro-
active to Jan. 1. The feeling
is widespread that with this
stimulus the country can forge
ahead and reach a plateau of
prosperity never hefore achiev-
ed in the history of the world.
And this internal strength is
needed because we face a mul-
titude of global problems with
the inexorable communist ene-
my poised to take advantage of
each developing situation. The
strength, skill and wisdom of
our President will repeatedly
be put to the test in the months
ahead.
Panama is an example. Un-
derlying problems smoldering
or dormant for years can quick-
ly be flared into the open for
the world to see and judge.
Will the United States act the
bully? Will we show signs of
weakness? However it goes be-
tween these two extremes, for-
eign propaganda mills will be
quick to malign and condemn.
There are no easy answers.
White House leadership will be
tough, flexible, and deft.
The Consumer — which is
in some respects a deceptive
term since there is no consum-
er to be distinguished from any
other group, we are in fact all
consumers — has finally been
given top level recognition by
the appointment of Mrs. Es-
ther Peterson to an additional
assignment as Special Assistant
for Consumer Affairs. She has
already received a flood of
complaints and is diligently fer-
reting out the answers. This is
an important aspect of our
economy. We pride ourselves
on the standard of living en-
joyed by the American people.
It must not be turned into a
fraud by shoddy merchandise
and cheap tricks.
Your Child From One to Six.
There is ample evidence that
the pre-school period for chil- j
dren — after they pass infancy j
—can be of tremendous ini-!
portance in forming their life-!
long emotional, physical, and
social standards. It is in this i
period, during which ties to
their parents are clearly estab- j
lislied, that the children devel-1
op their first attitudes toward
the role they will have as in-
dividual and responsible citi-
zens, Parents will want to take
advantage of every help they
can find to aid them in guid-
ing their children through this
important stage in life. A dis-
tillation of information, for
the use of parents, is a Chil-
ren's Bureau publication,
‘‘Your Child from One to Six,’’
which may be obtained by writ-
ing to me and requesting a
