THERE ARE 17 churches participating in the area-wide revival with committees from the co-operating churches doing much of the work.

He iholds youngsters (and old sters, too for many attend the meetings to see and hear him) spellbound with his magic and two gospel dummies.

The consecration of this Eodlv, dedicated doctor has a profound influ ence on the youngsters attending these services," officials said. "No effort is made to get the children to join the church through high-pressure. The simple Gospel message is given to them and the results left with the Holy Spirit." "Although the magic with a message is for boys and girls, older peoople are welcome to attend the meetings, in the main auditorium tent of the crusade each night," stated the Rev. Eugene Baxley.

"We should give more recognition to patriotism." "What are communities doing, now, on Memorial Day? In the average town the small group of people who observe it scarcely make an impression on the ebb and flow of life in the community. "I can remember Memo rial Day during my child hood. It was a tremendous day in the life of small Maine towns. Everyone par ticipated. There was the parade, the bands, everyone gathered in the cemetery for the speech by a noted ora tor.

"Patriotism has to do with a country's faith in it self. Why was it that some outfits (in war) seem better than others? Tradition. Fighting spirit. Intangible things. The will to do.

"You can't see it, touch it. You do know when it's there and when it's lacking. "Why did this little army under George Washington win? They were out-classed in every way. They were fighting the tnen-greatest country on earth, but they won," he said. "I would observe: this thing isn't confined to soldiers, to battlefields.

Think of the pioneers crossing the prairies. They conquered the West. They weren't accom panied by military guard "How can we judge the firmness of this foundation block (of patriotism) in America?

"Patrick Henry's 'Give me me liberty or give me death' was in 12 old school books, and three (out of 45 checked) new ones. "John Paul Jones' 'I have just begun to fight' was in nine old school books and none of the new ones.
