member. Her spiritual life
was nurtured during her
adult life through her
membership with the Jack
son United Methodist
Church. “May our chapter
remember and honor her
fruitful years of loyal and
dedicated service by further
ing our own efforts in like
manner.”
The President General’s
message, read by Mrs.
Evelyn Nix, used a quote by
Joseph Anderson, a member
of the American Clergy -
“There is nothing that
solidifies and strengthens a
nation like reading the
Nation’s History, whether
the history is recorded in
books, or embodied in
customs, institutions and
monuments,” to emphasize
February as American His
tory Month and the im
portance of its activities.
An excerpt from George
Washington’s Farewell Ad
dress, “The Unity of govern
ment which constitutes you
one people - is a main pillar
in the edifice of your real
independence-”, and an
article written by Lt. General
(Ret.) Willard Pearson, now
serving as Superintendent of
Valley Forge Military
Academy, entitled “Valley
Forge Then- and Now” -
were used as the Defense
message. Valley Forge, often
referred to as “The Cradle of
Liberty,” symbolizes the
struggle of early American
Patriots and the spiritual
legacy of perserverance,
courage and sacrifice - not a
victory of arms -but a
triumph of spirit, our need

Mr. and Mrs. Ricky Lamar

the birth of a son, Ricky

son is the former Brenda
Young. Grandparents are

and Mrs. T. L. Young.
today is a revival of Spirit, a
re-evaluation of moral fiber
which strengthened the
patriots’ cause.
The American Heritage
Chairman, Mrs. Loma Red
man, continued the emphasis
of February as American
History Month in presenting
a program based on her
first-hand knowledge of the
Bergenfield Area of New
Jersey, the Buffer State, and
often referred to as the
cradle of American Revolu
tionary War activity. The
movements of Washington’s
courageous though scantily
equipped army centers in
this area. A period of history
recalled for its human
sacrifices and tragic occur
rences documenting our
country’s heroes in her
struggle for independence
and the freedom we enjoy
today. Mrs. Redman remind
ed her listeners of the
contributing factor the
Algonquin and Iroquois
Indians made in the very
survival of the early colon
ists. Twenty years residency
in this section provided
unusual advantages to fur
ther her knowledge of
American History and pro
vide certain advantages in
assembling the valuable
material used in illustrating
her talk, a great portion of
which was donated to the
Chapter’s library, believing
that it will be of value for
further research by the
membership. The contribu
tion was accepted with
genuine appreciation, as was
Mrs. Redman’s talk.

THE ANVIL
Last eve I passed beside a black
smith’s door.
And heard the anvil ring the ves
per chime:
Then, looking in, I saw upon the
floor
Old hammers, worn with beating
years of time.
“How many anvils have you had,”
said I,
“To wear and batter all these ham
mers so?”
“Just one,” said he, and then, with
twinkling eye,
“The anvil wears the hammers out,
you know.”
And so, thought I, the anvil of God’s
Word,
For ages skeptic blows have beat
upon;
Yet, though the noise of falling blows
was heard
The anvil is unharmed-the ham
mers gone.
