She is serving as clinical instructor in medical and surgical nursing. By Beth Wells Assistant Editor Sunday night, November 16, El- der Theodore Carcich, president of the Central Union, opened a four- meeting series at the Capitol Theatre in Lincoln. Approximately 600 people attended the opening sermon which was presented at two meetings, one at 6 p.m. and one at 8 p.m. The subjects pre- sented by Elder Carcich during the Nov. 16-19 series centered around world conditions and the second coming of Christ. According to Elder M. W. Dem- ing, pastor of the College View church, the Capitol Theatre, no- torious in Lincoln for its western shows, has been leased by the Seventh-day Adventist churches of Lincoln for a period of 8 months, to be used as an evangelistic cen- ter. For this purpose it has under- gone an interior redecoration, com- plete even to the removal and re- placement of the murals on the walls. "The program for the converted theatre will be planned in detail as time progresses; however, plans are now being made to have some of the leading North American evangelists present several series of meetings for the interest of the general public," stated Pastor Deming. In addition to the meetings planned by leading evangelists, the pastors of the Lincoln churches will have weekly Sunday night meetings in the evangelistic cen- ter. Besides being open for the use of evangelists, the theatre will be available for Voice of Youth meet- ings, musical programs of a re- ligious nature, films on spiritual subjects, and general religious up- lift work for the benefit of Lincoln citizens. On January 18, Weiland Henry, northern California evangelist, will open a 15-meeting nightly series at the Capitol. And, according to all present plans as stated by Pastor Deming, the lease will be terminated with a 3-week series, presented by Elder F. W. Detamore and his evangelistic team, begin- ning June 14.

'CORDS' EDITORS REPORT PROGRESS The Golden Cords staff has an- nounced that the theme and cover plans have been completed for the 1959 yearbook. Candy Dailey, pic- ture editor, reports that 75 per cent of the pictures have been tak- en for the annual. At present the staff is working on the layout. According to Editor Verlene Potter, the layouts will be completed by March. Laundry Manager Lewis Suffers Broken Limb Mr. George Lewis, manager of the Union College laundry, suf- fered a broken bone in his right leg as a result of a pedestrian-car accident recently. Mr. Lewis was crossing Meredeth on 48th St. when the accident oc- curred. He saw the car lights be- hind him but wasn't able to jump clear of the on-coming car. According to reports, Mr. Lewis is in fine spirits and should be off his crutches in about three weeks. Plan II Approved By Majority Vote By Diane Prange ASB Secretary The responses of students to the presentation of a student center project have generated hopes that a student center will soon be a reality. It is hoped that formal plans and approvals can be com- pleted within the present week. Should this schedule succeed, the student body will be given an op- portunity to respond to a fund- raising program on Friday, No- vember 21. Among the various responses, there were 354 favoring a student center. Two hundred ninety-four of these favored Plan II, while 57 favored Plan I, and three favored either plan. Plan I proposed the use of the rear section of the chapel in the administration building. Plan H proposed using the two sides of the old chapel. In either case, the seating would be sufficient to sat- isfy the needs for men's worship and academy chapel exercises. These two groups will, however, be more favorably accommodated in other locations as new building projects are completed. The Student Association execu- tive council has interpreted these responses to indicate that they should begin work in the direction of the provisions of Plan II. This plan provides for a visiting, read- ing, and music listening area on the east side of the large room. The west side will contain two of- fices and space for a table game area. There were 44 responses in which students disapproved the project. The most common objection among them was that it seemed too expensive. The next most com- mon objection was on the religious basis that our money ought to be spent for some other type of proj- ect.

To start at the beginning, we flew over the Atlantic low and slow with an aircraft that hardly beat Lindbergh's time. It took about 24 hours flying time, with every un- pressurized take-off making our ears pop. This isn't what we would call a commercial for Icelandic Airlines. We arrived in Hamburg Oct. 8 in the middle of Deutschland without a bit of Deutsch on the end of our tongues. It's quite an experience urging a German- speaking taxi driver in English to take you to a sleepable hotel. We, the greenhorns, paid the driver 2 prices for showing our greenness. Our venture then led us to a top floor hotel room, which looked like it hadn't recovered from World War II. Not being able to figure out the European style feather bed, we fell back on our trusty sleeping bags. After recovering from the shock of being out of the States, we made our way down to Frankfurt the next day. However, upon arriving, we discovered that we had checked our baggage at the local check in Hamburg and that it was still there. Quite disconcerting, but the clerk took kindly to us and tele- phone call plus a few marks (which they use here for dollars) cleared the whole thing up. This wasn't the last time we "flubbed" because of the language barrier. In the past month we have touched 10 countries, 5 on our cir- cuitous flight, plus another 5 after arriving. So far the most interest- ing has been the one to Luxem- borg and then the World's Fair in Belgium. Thanksgiving we will be in the Alps skiing, or trying, providing our little Fiat makes it over the mdtfMf'&vroads. Cliff Burgeson, another""former"trnionlter will be with us'there. We are living In' Frankfurt and have parted our canvassing. The Lord is really opening the way for (cont. on page 2, col. 4) Linc ow ' ,See*AskA CLOCK TOWER, NOVEMBER 21, 1958 t M Vou a Zkanks-giver? This next week brings with it one of America's most widely celebra- ted holidays, Thanksgiving. What does Thanksgiving mean to you as a college student? The history of Thanksgiving is well known to all of us. We remember how the Pilgrims, along with the Indians, celebrated the rich harvest with wnich they had been blest. Down through the years, I believe some of the significance of this traditional holiday has been lost, both to the peoples of the world, and, if I dare say, to tne Christian world as well. In the past year we have all received many blessings, the magni- tude of which seems to vary, but nevertheless they were blessings. In reviewing these blessings, let's ask ourselves how many times upon receiving a good omen have we stopped and taken time to recognize from whence it came? W^ seem to be too busy to take time enough to be thankful for the many good things which have been bestowed upon us by our all-wise Creator. We just take all of this for granted. It seems to this writer that this season of the year would be a good time for each of us to take an inventory of this past year, and to be truly thankful for what God has given us. And as students of a Christian college such as this we should endeavor never to let a day pass without offering thanks for that particular day's blessings. Let us each one strive to make every day a personal Thanksgiving day. L. A. H. Once a failure, Always So? By some strange stroke of fate, it seems that most of us have survived the nine weeks' tests, and as a result of the same stroke, though it may be contrary to our wills, our grades have gone home again. How was it? Unfortunately most of us do not have the distinction of being one of the campus intellectuals. Being more mediocre we are classified as average college students. But what about those of us who might be termed failures? Was it that class from Elder Tobiassen that was so hard to make yourself study for, or was it Vertebrate Physiology? I'm glad that way back when, someone realized that "failure" and "final" need not be synonomous. We've all heard the saying that "Success is failure turned inside out." With this in mind, then, we can reverse our sights and peer into the past; we note that every truly great man, almost without exception, has had some major failure in his life. Take Abrahari? Lincoln for example; he failed to be elected to the state legislature, or to receive a seat in' Congress, but he led the Union to victory, freed the slaves and inked himself indelibly into the hearts of the American people as 16th president of the United States. Billy Mitchell was court martialed for realizing the importance of an air force and air combat to the American Armed Forces, but after his death, his convictions were proved true and he finally became recog- nized as one of America's most far-sighted military personnel. Even Einstein, developer of the astounding theory of relativity, was considered a dull student by his elementary teachers. But, you say, I've heard people boast that they've never failed in any- thing attempted. Strange as it may seem, these are the people that make up that large percentage of people known as the common man. The reason, perhaps, that they may boast that distinction is that they don't have what it takes to attempt anything big enough to fail at". It has been said that success is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. On this basis, I propose, out the window with good intentions—let's get down to something concrete. How about perspiring to phenomenal success? B.

J^edltorA Dear Editor: I wish to add my comment to others I have seen in the Leditors column concerning the change in the appearance of our school pa- per. I have thought for some time I would rather see the CLOCK TOWiiR on newsprint than glossy paper. I think it should look liKe a newspaper. The two public uni- versities I have attended had pa- pers resembling the present CLiOCK TOWER. I assume the newsprint is cheaper. Shouldn't we be more in- terested in extending news cover- age and improving tne service the paper renders than in spending money for fancy paper? To me the quality of a paper is in the contents, not the paper it is printed on. Sincerely, Milo V. Anderson, Head Department of Physics Dear Editor: I have no complaints about the contents of the CLOCK TOWER. I enjoy it very much, but the paper it is now being printed on does not stand up under the hard knocks of the mail route as the better paper does. Yours truly, Jackie Moyer Dear Editor: I write concerning the proposed student center. I advocate pro- gress, and favor any improvement which would better fit us for God's service. However, I wonder if in- stituting a student center would be a wise move. I rather doubt that our social development is in much danger of suffering. I believe that our pres- ent facilities and activities are ample. Students at Union appear quite normal and well-adjusted. If we have extra money on our hands, let us remember that it Is not ours to do with as we please. God has lent it to us to use in furthering His purposes. Shall we use it to furnish a place of amuse- ment and idleness? If we have leisure time on our hands, let us use it to study our Bible which is to judge us in the last day. Of no gift will God re- quire a stricter account than our time. Do we believe this? Where are our interests cen- tered? Upon ourselves? Then let us refuse not to create a student cen- ter. But if God has called us from selfishness, and if the superficial pleasures of earth have grown dim in the light of heaven, why then will we erect a temple to mammon in our midst? Why will the cause of God languish while we multiply needless luxuries? Sincerely, Lewis Anderson His Servant Speaks (Editors note: This is the fifth in a scries of articles written by leaders in the Seventh-day Adventist faith.) by R. Allan Anderson Secretary of the General Conference Ministerial Association It. Allan Anderson To be a student at Union College is both a privilege and a responsi- bility. The future leaders of the cause of God, the men and women who will doubtless carry this great message to its climax, are today sitting in our classrooms around the world. There are many things that enter into the development of the future worker. He must apply him- self to academic studies, of course. And few things are more import- ant than his development socially. But no training is more import- ant than that which develops his spiritual life. Prince Albert, Consort to Queen Victoria, had a clear grasp of the true functions of government, to which his son, Edward VII, made interesting reference a few years later when addressing the United Houses of Parliament. Rudyard Kipling was poet laureate of Eng- land at the time, and he com- pressed the prince's wisdom into homely verse, which the King (cont. In col. 5) Roving Reporters (cont. from p. 1) us, and we are very enthusiastic about the reception these army personnel have given us the min- ute they find out what our work is about. We would like to thank you all for your prayers, and 'we wouldn't complain at all about any letters. (Am Kirchberg 6, Frankfurt Main, Germany). This is a gentle hint. So until next time, we remain the roaming two, Shorty and Bob Feature Focus VIC J bean Since •45 by Marvel Jensen There is a person at Union who has endeared himself to men and women alike. Dean Culver now reigns where he was once a subject. He gradu- ated from Union in 1928. Before coming back to the position he holds now, he served at Oak Park Academy and Adelphian Academy as principal. But since 1945 he has belonged to the students of Union. Ever youthful, his interest in sports, his strong convictions of right and wrong make him Ideally suited to be father to Union's boys during their college years. A difficult job we'll all admit. Helpmate to him is his wife. I wonder how many bows she has tied on special pack- ages? And how does it feel to al- ways have a houseFULL of boys? The Culvers have two sons: Jack, who Is married, and Don, who Is attending our academy. As I mentioned, Dean Culver has strong convictions for our stand- ards. He not only speaks of them but he lives them. It's not many people who so faithfully practice what they preach. I think this is one of his most noticeable habits. But this does not lead to his being a rigid dean, for he is very fair, being lenient with those who de- serve it and firm with those who need it. A familiar figure in the gym, he plays a mean game of volleyball and is a golf enthusiast. He has a favorite spot for viewing the basket ball games, and we know we'll have an avid listener if we're in the mood to rehash any of those plays. An insight to the personality and goal of this man is gained from what he feels is the most re- warding aspect of his job—that of seeing young people, about whom doubts are sometimes held, leave college and go on to live a life rich in love and service for the Lord. This office of looking after young people, done In the proper way, does indeed have rewards far sur- passing momentary value. The sel- dom-expressed gratitude is real for the work Dean Culver is doing with patience and understanding. quoted. I give the lines here, for uiey so ntnngiy illustrate the point I want to make, 'i'nere are four legs to my fath- er's chair, Priest, and people, and lords, and crown. And I sits on all four of 'em, fair and square, And that's tne reason it don't tail down. Typically Kipling in its language, it nevertneiess states a tremen- dous truth. The three-legged cnair is always a danger. The two-legged cnair is impossible. Only tour legs make for security. And incidentally, we as individ- uals are four-sided. We develop physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually. If any one of these is undeveloped we find an unbal- anced personality. Of Jesus it was recorded that He "increased in wisdom (mentally) and stature (physically), and in favour with God (spiritually) and man (so- cially)." He was a fully integrated personality, truly four-sided, and that is why everybody loved Him. When God chose writers to tell the story of the gospel He chose foui% Matthew deals with His king- ship; Mark with His service; Luke with His humanity; and John with His divinity. If we would under- stand the full gospel story we must read the record of all four of these evangelists. The pressure of academic studies in college often leads to a neglect of spiritual growth. Then let me urge you, young friends, to guard well your opportunities for spirit- ual development. An ancient man of wisdom "climaxed his counsel with these words: "With all they getting get understanding." Let me paraphrase that and say, With all thy getting get spirituality. cA* J See Jt by George Fischer The chips are down, the dust is clearing, and the results of No- vember 4 spell out a landslide for the Democrats. Liberals attribute this to the administration's mod- erate stand on what they consider vital issues. Conservatives' think Ike would have been better off fol- lowing the principles of the so- called "old guard" wing of the Republican party. It appears that history will cast the deciding vote in approval or disapproval of the Eisenhower "middle of the road" idea of government. Leaders in the Soviet Union, not satisfied when Boris Pasternak gave up the Nobel prize, have forced him to practically repudiate his book. The Russians, it seems, believe that this prized award is presented only in the hope of gaining political advantage. At the present time, author Pasternak is wondering whether his deviation from the party line will bring him exile from his homeland. This is another case of human dignity sacrificed on the shoddy shrine of totalitarian Communism. On the campus scene, the pro- posed student center is finding widespread discussion. This pro- ject, as I see it, is a real step for- ward toward a better Union Col- lege. The only objections I've heard have been of a financial nature, and that we already have enough social activities on the campus. The amount each student is assessed actually is not very large, and as for the second ob- jection These Faces In the Crowd: Lar- ry Huston, a Colorado boy who's planning to use his talents In the fields of religion and Spanish.

Kt appa Z)heta By Betty Bell I hope that you will excuse this rather short report on Kappa Theta happenings during these last two weeks. You see, just like the other 230 girls, I'm "snowed under," you might say, with dusting, waxing, polishing, and all the other thousand and one details that must be attended to before our home is ready for open house. I certainly don't want to forget to mention our most welcomed guests though. Mrs. Smith (Bonnie's mother,) Mrs. Thomas (Ann's mother,) Mrs. Riddle (Lorene's mother,) and last but not least at all, my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bell. I hope I haven't missed anyone, but I ceuld have easily in the rush of test week. We have heard quite a bit about a student center In the last few weeks and have become acutely aware of the need. The other day in Home Management class someone mentioned that she had been unable to enjoy her meal in the cafeteria that noon because she had been bothered by a fly. The girls discussed at length the subject and finally concluded that we shouldn't be too hard on the flies because, after all, it is turning cool and they don't have a student center either. The girls of Kappa Theta would like to thank Mr. Arthur Hauck of the speech department for the Interesting club program, "Do you know your roommate?" The roommates chosen for this test—La Donna Milholm and Alma Swena, Hollis Moyer and Norvene Britain, Janet Jarnes and Sharon Odegaard, and Joyce Hornbacher and Karaly Barger—proved to be very good sports and helped to make this one of the best club pro- grams so far. There is a lot more that could be told of the "goings on" In Rees hall; but as I mentioned at first, we are all busy getting ready for open house. See you then. Evangelistic Series (cont. from p. 1) is to acquaint the people of Lin- coln with the Adventists and the Bible message. Pastor Deming de- clared, "We need to come down off 'the hill' to meet the people, and prove ourselves the friendly people we claim to be." Union College's part in this is supporting each series as it comes, helping to provide for the meet- ings, and extending invitations to the College View residents, proving that we are not a segregated and select group. Elder Deming urges everyone to support to the utmost this newly established evangelistic center. too% cotto* Christmas 'Bows' Theme CWC Meet "Christmas Magic" was the central theme of the November meeting of the Campus Women's Club last Sunday evening.

S. Government scholarships for study in Latin America was an- nounced today by the International Educational Exchange "Service of the State Department. Approximately 75 new scholar- ships will be added to those of- ferred for 1959-60 under the Inter- American Cultural Convention pro- gram. The Institute of International Education, which administers the Government student scholarship programs, will accept applications for the new grants until January 15, 1959. Those who have already applied for IACC scholarships need not make out new applications, but should notify the Institute that they wish to be considered for the additional grants. The added scholarships provide for study in a variety of fields in Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras,, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Para- guay, Uruguay and Venezuela. They cover round-trip transportation, tuition and maintenance for one academic year. For eligibility, ap- plicants should be United States citizens not more than 35 years old, have a Bachelor's degree or its equivalent before departure, know ledge of Spanish sufficient to live and study in the country con- cerned, and good health. A dem- onstrated capacity for independent study, is also necessary. Applicants will be asked for a summary of their reasons for de siring to study in the country" of their choice and for a preliminary plan of their proposed study. Sue cessful candidates will be affiliated with educational institutions in their host country. Information and application forms may be obtained from the Institute of International Educa- tion, 1 East 67th Street, New York City, or any of the Institute's re- gional offices.

I found that South hall was represented on the Union College tumbling team by John Field, transferred veteran tumbler from La Sierra College, and John Ridpath. Combining with Field and Ridpath to make an exceptionally good team are Dave Priest, Tony Latessa, Marion Pritchard, and Byron Bradley. Under the coaching of Mr. Reynolds and Ridpath, the team is rounding into shape fast and learning many interesting antics. Pritchard and Field are both outstanding on the trampoline. On the high bar Latessa excels. Ridpath with his long dives combines with Priest in a doubles routine. Otner top tumblers bidding for the team are Texter Ford, Dale Rexinger, Daliis Simpson, and Cnarles Eastham. All In all it looks as if the team will put on a very good show this year. Elsewhere, the men of South hall once again were treated to a fine program by the Sigma lota Kappa officers. A variety show was given with CIUD vice-president, Don Duncan, acting as emcee. Participating in the program were Maxino Reed, and the girls' trio composed of Carolyn icnodes, Sharon Avery, and Natalie Deming. Donna Wolfe gave a reading and Bui Bromine played one of his original compositions on the piano. Next was Rex Turner singing "Without A Song." Winding the program up was Jim Wilmot on the electric guitar, Don Duncan on the sax, and Bert Reid on the bongos playing "Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White." The program was highly entertaining. Sweet apple cider and donuts, all you could eat and drink, was the order of the night on Nov. 10 at Sigma Iota Kappa meeting. Club was opened with Dick Hammond, pastor, giving the worship talk. Then while different games were being played in the gym, the food and drink were issued out at a fast rate by head waiter Buddy Borris. Everybody had a very enjoyable evening. While Dean Culver was conducting Week of Prayer at Platte Valley Academy, many good worship talks were given by students. Presenting these-talks were Norman Wagness, Marvin Moore, Helton Fisher, Lewis Anderson, Max Singhurst, and Jim Heinrich. Contributing some good thoughts in worship also was Elder E. F. Sherrill, Missouri educational secretary. Student Center (cont. from p. 1) Other objections were: that some people will not have opporunity to use it; that the space and activity provisions will be inadequate; that the space is needed for other group meetings which could not be served if the space is divided. The results of the student poll have been presented to the Ad- ministrative Council with the pro- posal that the favored plan be further studied and carried through, if possible. At the time of this writing, approval has been voted by the Administrative Coun- cil with a recommendation to the faculty. At a special meeting of the House of Representatives on Tuesday evening the proposal was passed. Sufficient time has not been al- lowed this week for further study; as a result, the proposal Is being given a Careful study by the fac- ulty and staff as we go to press.

CLOCK TOWER, NOVEMBER 21, 1958 SDA World News Briefs JESSELTON, NORTH BORNEO— Seventh-day Adventist doctors holding traveling clinics in native villages here have an unusual com- plication to deal with in treating patients. Once the medicines are distributed, the patients compare them by passing the bottles and packages from person to person. Often, say the doctors, the right medicine fails to end up with the right medical problem. Best rem- edy, they find, is to give no more than one large dose of medicine, administer it themselves. CLOCKTOWER SPORTS November 21, 1958 On Wednesday night, November 12, the first round of the volley- ball tournament got under way. Competition began with 14 teams in the field. Six sets were played on Wednesday night and two more on Thursday night. Some teams are representing various departments on the cam- pus: the "Biology" team from the biology department; the chemistry "Orbital s" and "Thermodynes" from the chemistry department; the "Cadets" from the Medical Cadet Corps; and the Union Col- lege "Band" team. On Wednesday night the "Ma- jors" defeated "Biology"; "Goof- off's" defeated the "Apollos"; the WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Sev- enth-day Adventist Church will mark the 100th anniversary of its program of giving based on the Biblical tithing principal in 1959, a c c o r d 1 n g to an announcement from the Adventists' world head- quarters here.

The nead of the Radio and Hi-Fi de- partment of Dietz's, who was in charge of the demonstration of stereo records, played several types of music to give an idea of how different arrangements would sound. The main feature was the playing of Moussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition." On Saturday evening, November 15, Fine Arts Guild members and Iriends met and talked with Joan Marie Moynagh, the Lyceum art- ist, at the reception planned for ner by tne club. They enjoyed her personality, her friendliness and ner heipiui tips for singers. This is the iirst of such receptions. Beta Kappa The last meeting oi Beta Kappa featured a lecture by President D. J. Bieber. His topic concerned qualifications needed in denomi- national secretarial and business jobs. Among the most prominent of the thirteen points listed by the president were being a consecrated Seventh-day Adventist, being loyal, and working with the team. Each of the points was made applicable to those present. Teachers of Tomorrow Teachers of Tomorrow met for a business meeting on Wednesday, November 5. Additional officers elected were Ann Silvers tem,. .2nd vice-president; and Eugene Pres- ton, assistant secretary; both sec- ondary education majors. Plans were revealed for tours to Boys' Town, various schools for handicapped students, and a talk in the near future by Miss Pearl Schaaf of the Nebraska Depart- ment of Education. Nutritionist Urges Student Breakfasts Dorothy Besemer, an Iowa State graduate in the field of nutrition, and now nutrition field, represent- ative of the American Institute of Baking representing the eight West Central states, was a guest speaker to food and nutrition classes on Tuesday, November 11. Her topic was "The Importance of Breakfasts." Studies made at Iowa and Ore- gon State colleges, and Cornell and Purdue universities show that student performance in school drops considerably by eleven o'clock because of the lowering of blood sugar. To retain normal blood sugar levels during the morning, one should not only in- clude carbohydrates, but at least 15 grams of protein. The studies of breakfast pat- terns, starting with first graders through college, show that second- ary and college students have the poorest food habits. Some of the reason youngsters, ages 10 to 14, gave for not eating breakfast are: no one else eats breakfast, dieting, no time, didn't like family mem- bers to eat with them, mothers; are working, and didn't like break- j fast food. MV Band Cheers Children at Orthopedic Hospital Jako Knight, Orthopedic Bond leador, is shown talking with small friends at Orthopedic Hospital. Other band members pictured ore left to right: Ramona Helmer, Dick Hall and Carroll Knauss. by Bruce Powers To seven-year-old Connie, a cretin dwarf, to six-year-old Jim- mie in braces from polio, to thir- teen-year-old Joanne in a body cast from thirteen spine opera- tions, and even to sixteen-month- old Petey with infantile paralysis, Orthopedic Band is real. These children with the other patients at the Children's hospital look for- ward to our visit every week. Won't you join us? As we enter the hospital, Jake Knight, the band leader, tells us where to go and gives us some copies of Our Little Friend for the children. We enter a girls' ward first and note that the girls are about primary age. We spy Connie lying on her bed over by the win- dow. She turns her shining face towards us and beams "Hello." Carolyn Rhodes leads the singing of choruses, and the girls join us lustily in singing "Jesus Loves Me." After singing several songs and talking with first one and then another of the girls, we move on to the next ward leaving Carol Reile behind to tell some stories. The next ward is filled with teenage girls, and we see Joanne lying on the bed near the door. She seems so happy, but our hearts are saddened by the suffer- ing all around us. Joanne's special selection is "Do Lord," and she smiles contentedly while singing her favorite song. As we turn to the next door down the hall, we see model air- planes half-made and other evi- dences that this is a boys' ward. Jimmie shouts a welcome, but the boys are so wiggly, talk so loudly, behave so boisterously that we wonder if they will ever pay at- tention to what the leader is say- ing. Here we dig out the faintly remembered finger plays, and Jim- mie reminds us that he likes the one about the house on the rock. It challenges the ingenuity of Sharon Avery as she tells them a story, but we remember that boys will be boys and love them for their honest innocence. The fellows in the next ward are older, more attentive, and more polite. The fellow over there with all the books particularly likes "Precious Lord, Take My Hand." They say he has been here a long time. The last ward is the most in- teresting. We find Petey to our right in a crib as we enter the door. He is wreathed in smiles to see us. A little girl with her arm in a sling comes over to show us her new car, but the little girl on the left is so lonely she hardly smiles. "Bright Eyes" over there seems so happy; he doesn't under- stand that he'll never walk. The little girl with the pigtails has a full cast on, and it is uncertain if she will ever move her body. All these children need our help. Our visit is one of the bright spots in their long week of long days. Why don't you come to show them that you care? Give of your time on Sabbath afternoon for their happiness. Remember 2 p.m. at the church. We are counting on you!
