1t you continue in my word,
you are truly my disciples.
—(John 8:31).
God has shared with us the
ability to love. When our words
are charged with love, they
have away of bringing har
mony and unity into our life
and into the lives of others.
God has shared with us the
ability to manifest life. When
our words are vital, they gen
orate forces that heal and con
struct. Life flows freely
through the individual who
works freely with living ideas.

Basic Gases For
.
Life Found In Space
Astronomers now have found
that a link they had thought was
¢missing’® in interstellar space
-- 2 link in the chain of gases
essential to the evolution of life
-- is there in space, after all.
Utilizing the Greenbank, W, Va,
radio telescope, they have found
formaldehyde in dense, dusty cl
ouds,
With water, hydroger and am=-
monia already discovered in sp=-
ace, the addition of formalde
hyde has stirred interest among
life scientists, for it has been
shown in laboratory experiments
that an electrical charge passed
through these gases leads to the
creation of amino acids, the bu
ilding blocks of life, One theory
is that life on earth began this
way.
According to the Arizona Farm
Bureau Federation, an hour of
farm labor currently produces
over six times the food and crops
it did in 1920. And in the past
10 years productivity of the Am=
erican farm worker has been ine
creasing on the average of 6 per
cent per year. This is an indi=
cation that American agriculture
can and will keep pace with our
growing population for awhile
into the future.
