CARD OF THANKS I wish to thank all my friends and relatives who so kindly rem- embered me with flowers, boxes, gifts cards, letters and calls, while in Scott Memorial Hospital and since returning home. It was all very much einiebe- iated Mee, Wiibi#r Tau' brill IA Matter Of Principle The Rural Leadership Forum held at the Y.M.q.A. Camp at Geneva Park, just north or &illia, had as its theme "We and Our Community." Professor Ralph Dent led in a !discussion of " I the Individual". This study brought out some interesting thoughts about our- selves. Basically we are selfish. We do what we do for our own reward. I may rob a bank to gain a million for myself or I may, as some would describe, sacrifice my life in service to others but in both cases I will obtain the satisfaction I most desire. It is disturbing isn't It? Yet if -we remain undisturbed no action will result. More than that the disturbing factor must be sufficient to produce action. Rem- ember the old hound dog sitting on the thistle and howling. The disturbance caused a howl but it wasn't sufficient to result in action. Young people are sufficiently disturbed to attend High School but are they disturbed enough to forego a TV program in order to make a success of their studies? Farmers are disturbed enough to complain about their place in society but are they sufficiently disturbed to take action to in). prove their position? It a leader in the community is to get results this disturbance must bring action. The result may he the accomplishment of some worthwhile project or it may be the destruction of the leader. Dr. Helen, Abell discussed the Community. We came up with the answer that the "Com• munity" was the area of mutual interest, Some of us tried to define definite boundaries for our com- munities" and soon realized that. this was impossible. Our "Community', is different for almost every area of interest. 'Our church community is one area, our heelless area, our school area, our organizetion area and our family relation area is different in each case. Moden methods of communi- cations and travel have greatly changed the "Community" for the great majority yet in spite of this there are individuals and even sizable grotips who still live and think within very ear- row boundaries. Professor Stewart Lana related the impOrtance of our natural resources to the standard of Heine in our community. Basically our material wealth or standard of living is dependent on our enteral :Meet:nieces but many of the mire N61010000 t. 0400 Women's World Day Of Prayer Service A joint service, observing the.
