IDEASm
Why must we spend so
much time PROVING our-
selves? Whatever happened
to ideas like ACCEPTANCE
and INTEGRITY? Once upon
a time one could buy an item
with “one so-and-so”
printed on the label and be
99% sure there was one
inside. Now, the day of in-
vestigation, allegation, in-
nuendo, and hogwash, we
seem to require a con-
sumer’s report on every-
thing - as if “20/20” or “60
Minutes” has to “OK” the
air before we take a breath.
Pretty soon we’ll have to
have an “Inspected By
----” stamp on our
forehead before people will
trust us to be real.
I beg you pardon. It’s only
my second column, and I
must correct an error. It said
“pretty soon” in the last
sentence of the paragraph
above. That’s not true.
We’re already there, aren’t
we? We often times don’t
even trust ourselves, let
alone our family, friends,
and associates. Plus, we all
know about politicians.
If we do away with trust, if
we decide that no one can be
trusted, where shall we go?
Caves, maybe? We give up
on ourselves too easy. Once
we do that, it’s easy to give
up on others as well. The
institutions and beliefs on
which our nation, yes, and
our world are founded can
only find meaning and form
in the people who hold them
to be self-evident. I believe
in you because I choose not
to disbelieve in you. Until
you prove beyond a doubt
that you are untrustworthy, I
shall continue to believe in
you and my patience is great
Please make these state-
ments about yourself, and
make sure your label
correctly identifies the pro-
duct inside, then all of us
can be sure of what we'ye
already got, as well as what
we’re getting from others.

Scouts Enjoy Camp-out
Kids In The Kitchen
Rice - A-Burgers — for
kids to make and eat.
Some studies have shown that people working at home put
in 20 percent more time than those working at the office.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH will observe
the time change Sunday, April 26. Please
run your clocks ahead 1 hour on Saturday
night and be on time for Sunday School at
10 a.m. Sunday.
If your child wants to
entertain his friends, why
not let him make the party?
Put a kid in your kitchen,
and you could be pleasantly
surprised—if you plan it
right!
Gay as a fiesta, delicious,
different—and economical —
Rice-A-Burgers are made to
order for young cooks.
The rice couldn’t be easier
to cook—simply put 1 cup
regular milled white rice, 2
cups water and 1 teaspoon
salt into a saucepan. Heat to
boiling, stir once or twice,
cover, lower the heat and
cook 15 minutes or until
the liquid is absorbed.
A nice feature of the
recipe for Rice-A-Burgers ...
it can be done hours before
the guests arrive. (Plenty of
time to clean up!) The rice
mixture can be put together,
spread in the foil “pans”
and topped with catsup and
oregano, put on a baking
sheet, covered and refriger-
ated. About 30 minutes be-
fore serving, remove the
cover and put the baking
sheet in the preheated oven.
The cheese, too, can be
shaped, wrapped and chilled
for last-minute addition.
RICE-A-BURGERS
1 pound bulk pork sausage
2 eggs, slightly beaten
3 cups cooked rice
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3/4 cup catsup
1/2 teaspoon oregano leaves
4 slices Cheddar cheese
First make foil “pans.”

UPDATE
U.S. SENATOR for TEXAS
142 RUSSELL OFFICE BUILDING
WASHINGTON, D.C: 20510
The recent death of General of the Army Omar
Bradley marked the end of an era. He was the last of the
great generals of World War II, a man who stood out
among the ranks of many heroes.
• On the occasion of his death, I was asked whether we
will produce other heroes as great as he from today’s
military.
I pray daily that we will not have to, that we can
maintain peace. That is the goal of our defense program «
to be strong enough that we don’t have to go to war.
Neither the Soviet Union nor any other potential
adversary will risk pushing us into an armed confrontation
as long as they are convinced we are strong enough that
their venture would be unsuccessful.
It is for that reason that 1 and others in Congress and
in the Administration are working so hard to try to rebuild
our national defense system. History has shown over and
over again that he who does not prepare for war is most
likely to have to fight one.
Yet, that is only part of the answer to the question I
was asked. I do believe that in our armed services we find
the stuff from which heroes are made. Those who work to
keep the peace deserve as much respect and honor as those
who win the battles when the peace is broken.
It is only fitting that we pay tribute to General Bradley
and those others who have fought with valor. But we
should also pay tribute to those who day-to-day, with little
noise and, regrettably, sometimes less praise are our
defensive bulwark.
The mechanic who keeps the planes in the air, and
takes pride in his work.
The infantryman who drills and trains in the mud
preparing for a mission everyone hopes he won’t have to
undertake.
The sailor, separated from his family for months at a
time, who works a 60 or 70 hour week keeping his ship in
working order.
When I visit our military bases, I find heroes
everywhere, at all ranks. These fine men and women
believe in what they are doing.
They are frustrated because they don’t have the equip-
ment they need, or the spare parts, or the fuel or ammuni-
tion for sufficient training exercises. They wonder if the
American people understand their problems - or their
contributions. They read stories attacking the calibre of
our military personnel, and they take personally these
criticisms.
They are underpaid and overworked.
But still they work, still they train, still they believe in
their missions. That, to me, is true heroism.
After visiting with these fine Americans, I feel a
renewed responsibility to make sure they have what they
need to do their jobs. Man for man, we have the best
military in the world. But we have not provided them with
the wherewithal to do as good a job as they are capable of
doing.
We have consistently failed to compensate them pro-
perly for the vital work they do.
They are doing their part. We must do ours.

To save energy
dollars, plan your trips.
Car pooling alone can cut
down by two-thirds the
gasoline used to go to work
if you share rides with two
others. You may wish to
rotate the use of cars. Go
shopping with a neighbor
when possible. Combine
short trips into one outing
whenever possible. Use
public transportation when
available. Rediscover hiking
and bicycling.
A man gave a boy an
orange. “What do you tell
the kind man?” asked his
mother.
“Peel it!” shouted the
boy.
Parents find it difficult
to teach their Children to
say, “Thank you.” And
some of God’s children do
not find it easy to say,
“Thank you.” Yet the Bi-
ble says, “In everything
give thanks: for this is the
will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning }rou.”
It is interesting to note
that our word gratitude is
from the same root word as
“grace,” which expresses
the free and full mercy of
God. Just as God is gener-
ous with His pity, we
should be just as generous
with our praise.
Thanksgiving is also
from the same root word as
“think.” If you think, you
will thank God for His lim-
itless love and His ground-
less grace.
Gratitude takes three
forms: A feeling in the
heart, an expression on the
lips, and a giving in return.
These things should be ex-
perienced in our lives.
Do not let the abun-
dance of God’s gifts cause
you to forget the Giver in
your satisfaction over His
gifts.
So give thanks part of
the time, live thanks the
rest of the time, and you
will be happy all of the
time.
