Xi Alpha Omicron Chap

on May 4, 1968 in the home
of Mrs. Jack Clower, Ash

The chapter celebrated
their fifth birthday. Mrs.
Harry Austin decorated a
beautiful 12 inch cake with
yellow roses, the sorority

If We Knew Our Need,
Would We Make It Profitable to Us?
NO. 19-68
Far too many men who call themselves
Christians are short of and in need of the
qualities that make them truly Christian.
Each day we look about us and choose our
path. Do we do it with wisdom and mindful
of our duties to God and men or carelessly
and mindful of our comfort and pleasures?
Such are not qualities to be admired or ap
proved of, but we will find ourselves on that
path if we do not diligently consider our
steps. Who can deny the need to encourage
and build quality in ourselves and in our as
sociates? Our conscience will surely tell us
how faithful we are in performing this duty.
Men depend upon the rewards of their la
bor to provide them with new cars, new
houses, new this or new that, but labor spent
to improve the quality of ourselves, of our
fellow man and the mutual relations of men
with one another is more meaningful than
all other labor. Labor in this field will get
us the treasure that is hid in it, and the
pearl of great price for which a man should
sell all that he has and buy it. Matt. 13:44-
45-46.
The quality of life that God requires of men
for entry into the kingdom of heaven is very
definite. Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ (his
quality) and make not provisions for the
flesh to fulfill the lusts thereof. Rom. 13:14.
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on
eternal life. 1 Tim. 6:12. If any man will
come after me, let him deny himself and
take up his cross and follow me. Matt.
16:24.
The only way men can fail to see the need
of men for the Spirit of Christ is through dis
belief and ignorance of the grace it bestows,
or because they close their eyes and stop
their ears to what is going on in the world
about them. Even in the churches men go
and come with very few words of genuine
admonishment, one for another, such as "be
ye holy for he is holy." 1 Peter 1:16. When
we speak of great men we are not speaking
of the physical man, but of the quality of
the man. Christ is the greatest and the
greatness of his life is an example of the
qualities which men should reflect, as in a
glass.
Jesus washed the disciples' feet, saying I am
giving you an example, that ye should do as
I have done. John 13:15. He suffered for us,
leaving us an example that we should fol

Mr. and Mrs. Charles F.

have made their home at
118 Ridgewood Drive for the
past nine years,
Mr. Bradshaw has been
transferred to Fort Jackson,
South Carolina, as air craft
maintenance officer. He and
his men give technical assist
ance to maintenance shops
in the field.
They are members of Saint
Timothy’s Lutheran Church,
and have worked energeti
cally with the PTA projects
of the J. E. Edmonds Ele
mentary School. Mrs. Brad
shaw (Barbara), a familiar
face and voice at Edmonds,
will be greatly missed, and
should be commended pub
licly for the outstanding job
she has done. She is also a
member of the Forest Park
Garden Club.
A patio party was given in
honor of Mrs. Bradshaw at
the home of Mrs. Fred
Farnell, also of Ridgewood
Drive. There were twenty
two guests to surprise Bar
bara; She was also pre
sented a white orchid. A so-
low his steps. 1 Peter 2:21. There are many
Christians that do not commit adultery, do
not kill, do not steal, do not bear false wit
ness, do not defraud, and that honor their
father and mother, etc. One who did these
things asked Jesus, "What lack I yet?" and
got an answer he did not expect. Mark 10:
19-20-21-22. If most of us were asked the
same question we would find ourselves in
the same position as this man did. Jesus'
counsel, "do as I have done and walk in my
steps," should make all of us realize how
far short we are of giving complete obedi
ence to God. Readiness to lay down their
life for one another as Jesus did for men is
a rare thing among men, and where partial
ly observed it is watered down till it is un
recognizable. It is a situation which men
are strongly inclined to pass by on the oth
er side as the Levite, and the priest passed
by the man who had been beaten and rob
bed and left half dead.
The quality of Jesus' life is what gives us
life. It is why we must abide in him and he in
us. The branch cannot bear fruit (of qual
ity) of itself except it abide in the vine, no
more can ye, except ye abide in me. John
15:4. Christ possessed every perfect quality
and in him men are perfected. As many as
have been baptized into Christ, have put on
Christ (quality). Gal. 3:27. Know ye not, that
so many of us were baptized into Jesus
Christ were baptized into his death. Rom.
6:3-4.
The death of the carnal qualities in us, but
the awakening to life of spiritual qualities
that constitute a new life for us. For we ore
made partakers of Christ if we hold fast our
(purpose) confidence to the end. Heb. 3:14.
All men should be able to say, I live, yet not
I, Christ liveth in me (I get my qualities from
Christ.) (Old things are passed away, behold
all things are become new. 2 Cor. 5:17). A
Christian is a man who has acquired new
qualities that have been tested and tried,
and proved genuine. We see how Peter
failed in his hour of testing, but do not take
our own failures as a very serious matter
and fail to prove our qualities in the every
day tests that determines whether the old
man has been buried, and a new man has
been born. Every new day our qualities are
tested, whether we are faithful to the new,
or prove to be of the old man.

By DR. HENRY L. FOLEY
What are the main keys to
health? A healthy spine,
maintenance of a sound
nervous system, proper diet,
sufflc 1 e n t
sleep and
adequate ex
ercise — these
are the
main keys to
health. When
disease
strikes It is
generally be
cause we are
off base in
one or more
of those departments.
The lack of attention to
physical condition, and the
belief that physical develop
ment Is no longer so Impor
tant, is one of the most dan
gerous errors in the world
today.
Far too many people in
this age of atomic science
think that good health can
be bought in a bottle or a
pill box. It cannot; here
again let me state that
health comes from within
the body, not from without.
Good health doesn’t come
quite as easily as removing
the top from a medicine
bottle, or the cover from a
pill box. It isn’t that simple.
It takes a little effort. But
it’s a small price to pay to
be in a position to get some
fun out of our lives.
The spine is the principle
key to health because It en
cases the spinal cord and
acts as the distributing cen
ter for all the nerve trunks
of the body.
Regular chiropractic ad
justments will provide you
with the best basis for con
tinued health, and a soundly
functioning nervous system.
