An Old Friend Writes
So you think you have troubles, with your two or three
Rotten Kids? We all have them.. Troubles and Rotten Kids, that
is. They're inseparable.
I could tell you stories that would make your heart ache,
your hair curl. But so could you, doubtless. According to some
inane schools of thought, the trouble is that we haven't enough kids.
We spoil our one or two rotten and then are astounded at the
results.
All we have to do is have -a whole raft of kids, and prob•
lents would vanish. They'd help with the dishes, make their beds,
and all turn out to be Great Kids,
This is rot, I assure you. And to prove, I'm going to
quote some excerpts from a letter received recently from an . old
and dear friend. She's more dear than old, but I think her remarks
will explode poppycock about large families. She has six boys and
a girl and knows whereof.
The letter arrived at the end of January, when she got
around to sending out the annual Christmas cards, It was written
in starts and fits, over three weeks, whenever she had the strength,
"It is all defeating because there's too much of it, So
you're the way out — which is where I would like to be.
"I seem to be in a jaded (greenish?) state where nothing
really shakes me any more. I believe if you want to find a real
syeptic and -or cynic, look for an old mother of a large family. It's
not that I don't care (about all the big and little crises); its just
a kind of numbness that I think must settle in as a preservative.
Or else it's low blood pressure."

"Bob decided '40 take his summer working money (tuition
fees) and go off on a self-discovery journey to Europe. Night before
sailing he phoned (collect, of course) to say goodbye and told me
his girl was going too. I still don't know what her mother thinks
or feels. Of course I don't know what I think or feel either.
,So then Bill had mononucleosis. This was enough to
change his plans about college and he finally decided to go to

SEVEN TABLES IN I'LA'i'
AT B1 LGRAVE EUCHRE
There were 7 tables of euchre

There are those who insist that
educational television is required
and wanted. People can't and
shouldn't live without it, accord-
ing to the ETV advocates.
Although there is a scarcity of
educational and informative pro-
grams on the American neaworks,
there are some available on a
regular basis.
The following is a list of the
top ten programs rated in the
U,S., and not one comes close
to education in value.
1. Andy • Griffith, 2. Lucy
Show, 3. Family Affair, 4, Gun -
smoke, 5. Beverly 1-Iillbillies, 6.
Dean Martin, 7, ,Red Skelton, 8.
Bewitched, 9. Green Acres, 30.
Gomer Pyle,
Usually two or three 'specials'
show up in the top ten and when
this happens they are generally
entertainment programs,
Ratings in Canada are basically
the same, except for N,I-LL. hock-
ey, which always leads the list.
CBS will cancel foto' shows and
has added five to next season's
'I'V schedule, The programs dis-
appearing are . Good Morning
World, Lost. in Space, He and
She and Cimarron Strip.
Appearing inext season, "The
Doris Day Show", with Miss Day
as a widow with two children
who returns from the big city
to the small town of her birth.
"'The Good Guys" -- a saw -

"Lancer" — a family western
that evolves around two boys who

FROM THE MINISTER'S STUDY
How good does God expect us to be?
Christ said to His disciples, "Except your righteousness shall exceed
the righteousness o1' the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case
enter into the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5:20) The scribes
and the Pharisees were religious men. They were learned in all
matters of the law and were morally respectable people. - Why did
Christ say this? Was Ile setting 00 impassible standard?
Isaiah 64:0 gives us the key to the issue, "13ut we are all
as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags."
in other words, even the best that man does is not good enough to
satisfy God's righteous demands. Why? Because only absolute holi-
ness is acceptable to God, and no elan, except Christ, can claim
that perfection.
Here is the marvel of our salvation. God has made it bless-
edly possible for us to have Christ's righteousness imputed to us so
that we may stand before Ilial faultless. It is by faith as we repent
of sin that we receive this righteousness.
The hymn writer puts it this way:
When Christ shall come with trumpet sound,
0 may 1 then in ilinh be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless t0 stand before the throne!
What folly in that day to attempt to stand before Him in
our own goodness, which is only wretchedness! And what a tragedy
to have failed to lake advantage of. His salvation!
