Under the law, these veterans

It doesn’t pay to wait until
the ’ last minute before taking
action, Mr. Owen emphasized.
Once a veteran has decided
tA train under the Korean Bill,
tie must choose the school and
course be wants. He must make
certain that the course is Gl
approved. Then he must be sure
th d the school will accept him
for training.,
His next step is to file an ap
plication lor Korean GI Bill
’raining with the VA, or with
the approved school in which
he wishes to enroll. Since all
these steps take time, veterans
should act promptly to avoid
disappointment.
For veteran;; requesting VA
counseling to help them decide
on an object and a training pro
gram, prompt action is a “must”;
the counseling process adds still
another step that is necessarily
time-consuming.
VA reminded veterans that
’he August 20 deadline applies
to veterans planning to take on-

the service on or before August
20, 1952, VA said. Veterans sep
arated after that time have two
years from the data of their sep
aration in which to oegin Korean
GI training.
The law requires that a vet
eran must “enroll in and begin”
training on or before his dead
line, if he wants to go on with
it afterwards. The mere filing
of an application beforehand,
with the intention of starting
later, is not enough.
These cut-off date rules apply
only to veterans planning train

They do not pertain to veterans

“LET US REASON TOGETHER”
By Rev. D. A. Lastinger, Retired Methodist Minister
For this week let us think of
YOUR CHURCH SERVICES.
While we think upon this topic
we have in mind YOUR church
services. To whatever church you
may belong the services of that
church are YOURS. You are a
member, an individual and re
sponsible part, of that church.
By affiliating with a church we
have acknowledged our need oi
what that church can mean unto
us. In some churches we have
formally and specifically assum
ed the obligation to attend upon
its services. In all churches we
have, at least by implication, as
sumed the obligation to attend
upon its services. In any church
members are reasonably expected
to be in their places.
Again, by YOUR CHURCH
SERVICES we mean ALL the
services of your church. There
are some services, such as young
people’s services and missionary
societies, which do not require or
expect the attendance of the
whole church. But all the Sunday
school services, all the preaching
services, all the mid-week ser
vices, and all special services are
planned for the whole church.
Unto all these you are especially
and personally obligated. If all
the membership held the same
attitude towards the services of
the church as do the absentees
you would soon have no church.

their influence. At them the Gos
pel of the Lord Jesus Christ is
preached, or taught. In Paul’s
day he wrote about the Gospel
as “the power of God unto sal
vation to every one that believ
eth”. It is just that, and nothing
else is. If is specifically preached
and taught only in the church.
If people are saved they are
saved because they believed in
teaching of the Gospel. By the
Gospel they were taught to yield
their hearts and lives unto Jesus
Christ. If they know Christ then
the preaching and teaching of the
Gospel holds for them a very
sacred and lively interest. They
will love the services of the
church. If they are lax and care
less they will seem to have lost
interest in the sacred power of
the Gospel. This, then, becomes a
mighty argument to indicate
their need of, and their obliga
tion to, the services of the church.
The value of them is found in
what they can do for you.
We greatly need a revival of
church attendance. If all mem
bers were in their places each
time we would be compelled to
enlarge all our churches. (And
if all did consistently attend we
would easily have the money in
reach to do this.) It might be
that this would seriously deplete
the numbers in some question
able places and connections. But
we could easily and gracefully
submit to that. If we had this
revival of church attendance, and
all members were constantly in
their places, we could set the
world on fire for God.
