SANDF.RS BACK ON 1.1ST Several weeks hack 1 wrote about the Presbyterians pub lishing- a poem written, sup posedly by a 12-year-old child. What brought the publicity to the affair was the fact that the Armed Forces Chaplain Board dropped the magazine in which the poem was pub lished from use in military chapels. As a follow - up, I think you will be interested in the following editorial note which appeared in the March 1 issue of the Presbyterian Journal. “Shades of the Air Force controversy! This time it wasn’t an arm of the military that offended influential churchmen, it was a Presby terian publication that appar ently offended the military. The Armed Forces Chaplain’s Board decided to drop the Sunday school magazine, “Ven ture,” published for 0-12 year- olds by the United Presbyter ian church, from its list of publications approved for u<e in military chapels. Charged the Presbyteriarw : ‘Censor ship!’ It seems that Venture printed a blood-curdling poem by a 12-year-old which vividly described little children burned up by napalm in Viet Nam. The executive for Christian Education in the FPl 3A Church implied he thought the poem was very fine ‘Christian education. Said the 12-year-old, with political wisdom derived from somewhere, she thought America should withdraw from Viet Nam and let the North and South Vietnamese settle their differences themselves. P. S. Defense S^retary Robert McNamara has personally re stored VENTURE to the ap proved list.” FOR NOTHING There are too many people, aided by the socialistic schemes of the current administration, who are demanding more and more something tor nothing. It can only eventually lead to down! all as illustrated in the following item sent to us by a reader, entitled, “The Cow That Thought”: Once upon a time there was a cow who thought. (Not very well, but she thought.) And .'he thought her farmer \v; us mak im r too much profit t) 1 1 her mil k.

If she could have thought of some fringe 1" cnefit' in ai idition to greater pay, she wm dd have demanded them too. Finally the milk wouldn’t pay the f eed hill.

Growing from the ground up has been the experience of the National Opera Company, and so in its beginning some IS seasons ago, it titled itself the “Grass Roots” Opera Company. From its avocational boginning, using local talent, touring in one station wagon, and using modest scenery, the company has grown into a full fledged professional organization.
