A small sum of "money was gathered for Indian, farmers in. South America.:.It is much better to :try to ;.start+something even though small to promote peace rather then do nothing, Many young people are like . the child riding with parents in the car, saying, "When .we get to where we. are going Where will we be?"

She went on to tell of the people in under- developed countries being amaz- ed when they hear of farmers in America being told to cut food production to avoid surpluses, - when they themselves are starv- ing. If we are to be builders of peace we must, after we gather for a church service, scatter into the community and the country and do our best to build peace. H we do no good 'when we scatter, it hasn't done any good to gather. Mrs. Hewitt closed with a poem "0 It's Just the . Little Homely Things" and prayer.
